@JohnCleese I think these folks do this on purpose to increase engagement.

It's extraordinary. not just the Eagleman doesn't know where Switzerland is, but that he's too stupid even to check where it is The self-confidence of the true moron

@tonydunsttv Super interesting read that actually shifted my opinion. Thanks for that.

I was teaching at a school in Kenya 17 years ago when the head-boy collapsed one day during recess. We couldn’t resuscitate him, so a teacher scooped him up and brought him to his mom’s house…but she refused to take him to a hospital because she couldn’t afford it. The teacher took him, and the doctors said he collapsed from hunger. He’d been barely eating so his mom and sister could have enough to eat. I guess the recent studies say UBI doesn’t impact people much in first world countries. But if they ever wanna spend our tax dollars on places like these, do it.

@wolviebets @jaredgriener Be serious. None of this would have happened under a Harris administration.

@jaredgriener Did Trump personally write this provision and slip it in the senate bill?

Shout out to all the poker players who only voted for Trump because they thought it would benefit them financially 🤡

@DougPolkVids This bill is going to result in the premature deaths of thousands of folks kicked of Medicaid. Millions of kids will go hungry because of cuts to SNAP. But please, won't someone think of the poor professional poker players? So many Trump voters finding out.

@SciarappaD61111 @RetroAgent12 Sir, that is not how crime rates work. It isn't that less crimes are committed by the undocumented, it's that the undocumented have lower rates of criminal activity (fewer crimes per person). Hope that clears thing up. Have a great day!

@RetroAgent12 @compiano65253 No shit how many citizens are in the US compared to illegals . Simple math dummy.

@CryptoPoor2024 @MaFrt1 @atrupar In case you wanted a serious answer, the Oregon Treaty of 1846 established the 49th parallel as the border from Lake of the Woods (at the Minnesota, Ontario, and Manitoba border) and the Pacific Ocean.

DOOCY: Are you concerned that if Canada became the 51st state, it would be a very very blue state? TRUMP: You have that artificial line that looks like it was drawn by a ruler. I don't mean a ruler like a king, I mean a ruler like a ruler. It's just an artificial line ... is it liberal? Maybe.

@atrupar Every time he goes off like this on Canada, it gives Carney a bump in the polls. 2 months ago, the Liberals were dead in the water, CPC majority a lock. Today, it's a horse race. Silver lining to the stupidity.

Trump: "Canada doesn't pay for military. They give us nothing. And they are the worst people to negotiate with of everybody ... they cheat."

@criken14 @HiddenYorkshire Did it read like "breathtakingly powerful writing" to you?? 🤣🤣

@HiddenYorkshire Never read the book so I don’t get the joke. Is this real or no?

@Evolutionistrue Jerry, I used to devour your blog when I was a grad student. I'm saddened at the direction that you've taken these past few years. So much punching down, in service of....? You really can't see why "sex worker" is an improvement over "whore"? Jesus, man.

@Jake35919084691 @SonnyBunch But the point is that he agreed to those tariffs. They are part of a trade deal. That he signed. Also, those are over-quota tariffs that are rarely triggered.

@Sourlemur @SonnyBunch As he says about everything he does. that doesn’t change that I think it’s ridiculous to charge tariffs as high 270% to your Nextdoor neighbor and largest trade partner. I don’t think trumps a genius, at all. I’m sick of the globe looking at America as daddy who’ll pay the bills

If you support a trade war against Canada on the grounds of stopping the flow of drugs into America you are either one of the stupidest people on the planet or a lying hack. It’s a fascinatingly idiotic argument on virtually every level.

@woodifitweretru @SonnyBunch But your president is starting a trade war against Canada. The trade war is specifically the policy that Trudeau said was dumb.

@JFFredrick2 @SonnyBunch Less than 1% of Fentanyl coming into the US comes through the border with Canada.

@SonnyBunch So Canada won't get off it's rear end and stop the drug trafficking? Unless someone forces then to.

@BJCCrew @SonnyBunch Hi friend. The tariffs you mention are specifically allowed under the current trade agreement, which was negotiated and signed by Trump during his first term. At the time, he called it "one of the greatest deals ever".

@SonnyBunch Do you support Canada’s tariffs on America that proceeded the current ones? Or are you just a blow hard?

@_LQCincinnatus @SonnyBunch Seizures of Fentanyl at the Canadian border are <1% of the total seized by CBP.

@SonnyBunch agree a trade war is disproportionate but I think it’s a very serious mistake to dismiss the amount of narcotics entering the country thru northern border

@Jake35919084691 @SonnyBunch Unfortunately Jake, those tariffs are allowed under the current trade agreement between our countries, which was negotiated by the previous Trump admin and signed by him. At the time he called it "one of the greatest trade deals ever".

@SonnyBunch I can support a match of tariffs that Canada applies to us over the past few decades, or the equivalent of their major exports to us

@JBradshaw01 I live in a city where Lib won by a huge margin, but I teach in a town where PC got more than half the vote. Rural folks are freaked out by immigration. They are seeing people who look different, and they are scared. I think that's a huge part of why the PCs are hanging on.

What do you notice? What do you wonder? #OntEd

@TomDwan @JDVance I really thought you were smarter than this, Tom. You think Trump doesn't know he's lying about the favorability (and everything else)? He's a liar. He lies. All the time. More verified lies than anyone, ever. What you really mean: "ask him to make his lies less obvious."

@JDVance This is a good tweet. Can you gently nudge trump and others to realize their 4% favorability thing is wrong 🙏🏻🙏🏻. Not saying Zelenskyy is great, sure there’s a buncha nonpublic stuff u guys know… but at least until that comes out he’s a bunch more popular than 4%

This is moralistic garbage, which is unfortunately the rhetorical currency of the globalists because they have nothing else to say. For three years, President Trump and I have made two simple arguments: first, the war wouldn't have started if President Trump was in office; second, that neither Europe, nor the Biden administration, nor the Ukrainians had any pathway to victory. This was true three years ago, it was true two years ago, it was true last year, and it is true today. And for three years, the concerns of people who were obviously right were ignored. What is Niall's actual plan for Ukraine? Another aid package? Is he aware of the reality on the ground, of the numerical advantage of the Russians, of the depleted stock of the Europeans or their even more depleted industrial base? Instead, he quotes from a book about George HW Bush from a different historical period and a different conflict. That's another currency of these people: reliance on irrelevant history. President Trump is dealing with reality, which means dealing with facts. And here are some facts: Number one, while our Western European allies' security has benefitted greatly from the generosity of the United States, they pursue domestic policies (on migration and censorship) that offend the sensibilities of most Americans and defense policies that assume continued over-reliance. Number two, Russians have a massive numerical advantage in manpower and weapons in Ukraine, and that advantage will persist regardless of further Western aid packages. Again, the aid is *currently* flowing. Number three, the United States retains substantial leverage over both parties to the conflict. Number four, ending the conflict requires talking to the people involved in starting it and maintaining it. Number five, the conflict has placed--and continues to place--stress on tools of American statecraft, from military stockpiles to sanctions (and so much else). We believe the continued conflict is bad for Russia, bad for Ukraine, and bad for Europe. But most importantly, it is bad for the United States. Given the above facts, we must pursue peace, and we must pursue it now. President Trump ran on this, he won on this, and he is right about this. It is lazy, ahistorical nonsense to attack as "appeasement" every acknowledgment that America's interest must account for the realities of the conflict. That interest--not moralisms or historical illiteracy--will guide President Trump's policy in the weeks to come. And thank God for that.

In 2013, Thomas Piketty had an unexpected bestseller (a 750 page economics book translated from French!) *Capital in the 21st Century*. 1/

@randyshackelfor @RichardDawkins Your tweet is an absolute masterclass in broadcasting your own ignorance, given that Dawkins has long spoken out AGAINST trans folk. Bravo sir.

America’s elected senators have demonstrated their ignorant contempt for science by confirming an anti-vaccination loonie as Health Secretary.
