Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

Please read and share. Musk is attempting to blame Ukraine for the X cyberattack, but word has already spread that it was a false flag. What is a false flag? A false flag operation is an act committed to disguise the actual source of responsibility and shift blame onto another party.

Lac Beauvert, Jasper National Park Glacial flour is what gives rivers & lakes in Jasper this turquoise colour. Minerals absorb & reflect back to our eyes the shorter wavelength blues -> green. "Beau Vert" translates to "beautiful green." #stunday #photography #travel #canada #science
View of mountains from shallow end of a brilliantly coloured turquoise lake . Nearby, large rocks are visible through the clear, shallow waters. In the background, coniferous trees line the lake.

What do you think of this idea? Canadian shoppers are starting a new habit. After checking an item, if it's US product, they return it to the shelf upside down and turn several more of the same item upside down so the next shopper knows to skip that product. #AlwaysCanada #Never51 #CanadaSky

I'm sharing an image a day to celebrate the vibrant and unique culture and history of Canada. Today, it is the World's Largest Pysanka in Vegreville, flanked by RCMP Officers. #ProudlyCanadian 📸Ernie's Photo Studio
The color photo shows a large, egg-shaped sculpture with a geometric pattern in black, yellow, white, and brown, mounted on a pedestal in an open grassy field under a blue sky with scattered clouds. The sculpture, known as the "Big Egg," is a prominent landmark. In the foreground, four members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), dressed in red uniforms and wide-brimmed hats, stand in a line, adding a ceremonial presence.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

Rieckhoff: He's losing his women and children. His cities are being bombed, and we're talking about his clothes? It was victim shaming, which is what trump has been doing to Zelenskyy and Ukraine since before he got elected. It's unacceptable.

Given that the Trump people did nothing to induce Russia to end the war, it’s fair to conclude that the whole idea of pursuing peace was just a pretext to renew relations with Russia.

I stand with the people fighting to help Ukraine. I oppose the Trump/Putin gangster regimes. Canada has a malignant threat on our border while the front line in Ukraine is being hammered. This is an all hands on deck moment for our nation and the world.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.
