The Toddler-in-Chief wants out of NATO and the United Nations. Time for Canada to invite the UN to move their headquarters north.

So far, Trump has done nothing for Americans and everything for himself.
For his next act the US will pull out of all alliances and move to a spheres of influence policy which will basically be a smash and grab either thru invasion or business grift, again for his benefit, starting with Venezuela.

FIFA boss, known for flattering President Trump, awards him first ‘peace prize’ | CNN CNN’s Erin Burnett on President Trump’s cozy relationship with FIFA President Gianni Infantino as he is awarded the organization’s first ever gold “peace prize”.

This could be a one and done. Who would want to be the second recipient?

Trump says he will pardon ex-Honduras president convicted of drug trafficking Juan Orlando Hernández was sentenced in the US to 45 years behind bars for conspiring to smuggle cocaine.

This is how you know Trump cares nothing for drugs coming from Venezuela. So what is he really up to?

Post-Thanksgiving cross-country winter storm could wreck travel as it brings the most widespread snow of the season | CNN Holiday travelers in the United States avoiding widespread disruptive weather ahead of Thanksgiving might not be so fortunate during their post-holiday journeys.

Saw a post yesterday advocating to move American Thanksgiving to October, like Canada, to avoid the crush of big holidays so close together. Here’s another - perhaps better - reason for an October Thanksgiving.

Canada joins world leaders saying Trump’s plan to end war in Ukraine needs 'additional work' | CBC News Prime Minister Mark Carney is sitting down with the leaders of the U.K., Germany and the president of the European Council on the sidelines of the G20 to talk about Ukraine as President Volodymyr Zele...

“Needs additional work”. That’s Cdn for “You, piggy, couldn’t negotiate a fair peace treaty if your life depended on it and you weren’t scared shitless about the kompromat Putin holds over your head”.

JD Vance blames immigration for Canada's 'stagnating' living standards | CBC News U.S. Vice-President JD Vance made a series of posts criticizing Canada’s political leadership, public broadcaster and immigration system, saying our living standards are “stagnating” because of all th...

Go to hell, Vance, you hillbilly. You have no idea what you’re talking about from start to finish. You and your running mate have proven beyond a doubt that holding high office in no way means you know what you’re talking about or have an opinion ANYONE cares about.

Toddler Trump would have been required to spend recess walking with the supervising teacher so he could have time to think about making better choices if he were in the grade dictated by his mental capacity.

Imagine ascending to the highest office in the land and still needing to make these kind of comments in order to feel powerful and masculine. If he were 5 yrs old he’d have to spend recess walking the playground with the supervising teacher, to give him time to think about making better choices.

Another “oh, that’s just Trump being Trump” moment of ignorance adding to the daily degradation of America’s world standing. But y’all knew he was a pig when you elected him (twice, tho the jury’s still out on the last) so the pig slop all over America the Beautiful must embarrass but not surprise

Pushing, yelling from Conservative leadership ‘sealed the deal’ on defection: d’Entremont | CBC News Nova Scotia MP Chris d’Entremont says pushing and yelling from Conservative Party leadership ‘sealed the deal’ on his choice to cross the floor to the Liberals earlier this week.

“Chris d’Entremont, who established himself a liar after wilfully deceiving his voters, friends and colleagues because he was upset he didn’t get his coveted deputy speaker role, is now spinning more lies after crossing the floor. He will fit in perfectly in the Liberal caucus.”
Sounds like the US

If the career you’re best suited to and qualified for is ICE, it’s time to re-evaluate everything about your life.

Venezuelan politician Maria Corina Machado awarded Nobel Peace Prize | CBC News The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to Maria Corina Machado, a Venezuelan opposition leader, it was announced Friday at the Norwegian Nobel Institute in Oslo.

Too bad, Donald. Turns out this year’s prize is for the move from dictatorship to democracy, not the other way around

Poilievre claims Christians 'may be the number 1' victims of hate-based violence | CBC News Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said Monday that Christians and their places of worship are being targeted and, if elected, he will crack down on religion-based hate.

I am a staunch supporter of the CBC. Having said that, I’m increasingly disturbed by their coverage of PP, our divisive, hate-spewing freeloading Leader of the Opposition. The headline should read “PP falsely claims…”, and anything less is deliberate misinformation. Truthful journalism please, CBC.

His official title is Leader of the Opposition, but Pierre Poilievre more closely resembles a court jester with a troupe of clowns in tow. Every time he opens his mouth he becomes less electable.

Ambassador Hoekstra should be sent home. His role in Canada is not to lecture us, or accuse us, or demean us. His position is not a bully pulpit. We don’t need him here.
Go home, Pete.

Ask to speak to the legacy of a colleague, Poilievre instead chooses to disparage and divide, bc he is capable of no more.
