@schaubee @umeshgeeta @DrJStrategy Sure. But consider my point. One’s support is not to be based on any single thing, but on the best overall outcome. Trump for the win.

@umeshgeeta @TazWes @DrJStrategy I support the President and his destruction of the Euro-colonial system. What I find rich is people who start a post with a disclaimer about their distain for a great leader and then proceed to pontificate about the success. Get onboard or pipe down.

For the record. Iran’s Historic Mistake Carl von Clausewitz wrote that war is “the continuation of politics by other means.” President Trump grasped this from the start: Operation Epic Fury exists to stop Iran’s nuclear march and restore deterrence, not to pursue the familiar neocon fantasy of occupation and nation-building. Epic Fury is peace through strength in action: credible force applied decisively when adversaries mistake restraint for weakness. By weaponizing the Strait of Hormuz, Iran committed a strategic blunder of historic proportions. Tehran meant to punish America. Instead, it exposed every power built on imported energy, vulnerable sea lanes, and the delusion that globalization repealed geography. China is exposed. Europe is exposed. Britain is exposed. Iran has created a world where hard resource power decides outcomes. Start with China. Beijing’s industrial machine depends on imported oil and gas moving through vulnerable maritime chokepoints, the old Malacca dilemma in modern form. A great power reliant on long, exposed sea lines cannot be secure, regardless of economic scale. The Hormuz shock forced China to scramble for alternatives, proving that size is not resilience. Europe and Britain face the same problem. After escaping Russian dependency, they traded one vulnerability for another, leaning on imported LNG and maritime flows exposed to coercion. When chokepoints tighten, they absorb shocks rather than project strength. European criticism says less about American failure than about discomfort with a world where hard power still matters. Iran’s mistake is that once Hormuz becomes structurally unreliable, the world builds around it. That means bypass corridors, revived pipeline politics, and urgent planning for routes linking Aqaba to Mediterranean outlets near Gaza and the long-stalled Basra-to-Aqaba pipeline. The old energy order is cracking. The UAE’s OPEC exit signals cartel discipline giving way to national advantage under pressure. Trump deserves credit, not European scolding. Operation Epic Fury struck thousands of targets, degraded Iran’s offensive capabilities, and shattered assumptions that the West would absorb escalation without response. The administration acted while others lectured. It restored deterrence in the only language Tehran understands. The larger lesson matters more. Secure natural-resource hard power is what the Western Hemisphere possesses in abundance. The United States, Canada, and the Americas command hydrocarbons, LNG, farmland, freshwater, critical minerals, and strategic depth on a scale import-dependent Europe and Asia cannot match. This crisis clarified, not weakened, the Americas structural position. The financial dimension reinforces the point. Demand for Federal Reserve swap lines during crisis proves King Dollar remains supreme. When stress hits, governments run toward dollar liquidity, not away from it. Hard resource power and monetary power reinforce one another, and the United States sits at the center of both. That is Epic Fury’s real significance. Clausewitz wrote that “the political view is the object, war is the means.” Trump understood that. Iran tried to weaponize geography, Trump turned the confrontation into a demonstration of who is exposed and who is not. The Trump administration deserves far more praise than it has received, and history will likely judge that Iran’s greatest miscalculation was not merely closing Hormuz, but revealing which powers still command the real sources of strength.

@McInnis_4MLA @LazenbyAlec @VancouverSun They are not American. They are not Canadian. Ffs. They are just doing what BCand Canadian law clearly say. Canada is the usurper being hoisted by theur own petard. Ha!

Excellent article by @LazenbyAlec in the @VancouverSun American Tribes leveraging DRIPA to gain influence in BC is a growing story. This is SERIOUS. vancouversun.com/news/us-tribes… #bcpoli

@Bratt_world Gosh. You take Trump’s words literally. Stop that. You’ll get hurt

So each sniper killed 350 people an hour for 24 hours straight ?

@RNicholasBurns Nonpartisan? Evidence please.

The State Department fired 200 experienced U.S. Foreign Service Officers today. No Administration has been more dismissive of our nonpartisan career diplomats. Shameful.

@Bratt_world Planes crash. Planes get shot down. Planes have successful missions. War is never about single issues as small as a couple planes being shot down.

Ok now I’m thinking something bad did happen today. Does anyone know if the two missing planes landed after the GPS jamming in Strait of Hormuz ??

@JacintheEveArel Call me when Carney puts the dairy cartel on the negotiating table. If Canada wants free trade. Canada needs to be a free trader. Noticed that none of Carney‘s statements are specific. Someday read the USA‘s list of issues. It’s public record. And it’s never talked about.

🇺🇸🇨🇦🇪🇺On diversification: Tell me what Canada was selling to the U.S. that we can now realistically sell to Europe at the same scale, speed and cost. Diversification has to survive geography, logistics, prices and demand.

@marlene4719 @Mellyfax Do you really believe Trump pulked oit just for shits and giggles? Is the something like dairy cartel monopoly that makes USA think Canada isnt negotiating in good fauth.

PM Carney refuses to beg Trump for a trade deal, but he stands ready to resume negotiations when and if Trump ever grows the fuck up. Video credit ~ @Mellyfax

@AdamKinzinger Makes sense. The racial discrimination was a bad thing. We can look forward without the need for Democrat racism now.

IMPORTANT: Trump is openly calling for states to cancel active elections to push through new gerrymandered maps before November. His words: "If they have to vote twice, so be it."

@BobDEithKC Thats true, but its also true that a pipeline (and refineries) owned in Canada would enable price protection by nationalization during emergencies. Lack of supply is a real problem.

😣 Trevor…you know that oil ⛽️ prices are set globally and local gas prices would not be impacted by a pipeline. You know that it is because of the war in Iran. Stop misleading the public man.

@umeshgeeta @DrJStrategy All it takes to vote for Trump… clothespin on nose…. And a 3 second glance at the suicidal herd mentality of the left. That was my method. Trumps not my vision of a great leader, but we could do worse… see most Dems X Fetterman.

I am not a Trump Voter, ever. But I fully agree with this assessment. People’s TDS keeps them away from seeing the logic of what Trump Admin is unleashing here. I think Ayatollah Regime and IRGC got carried away because of stupid “takes of Global South” and equally bad faith arguments by American Left/Dems & Media. Regime undermined Donald, thought he will commit the same mistakes like Bush and can be provoked into a land invasion. The restrain, relentless attitude & approach to find a rational solution at each juncture of the unfolding unpredictable situation - that is the competency Trump Admin is showing. We all want that to reach its logic end. Patience will reward Donald and America. Shout out to Israel, IDF and Bibi. I doubt Donald would have taken this much risk without a stalwart and exceptional partner like Israel. Very rarely humanity sees such a competent warrior over decade after decade…what Israel is doing here - it is extraordinary.

@IngrahamAngle Naw, Carney just finds that creating Trump hate is electoral fentanyl.

Apparently Canada intends to become a province of Europe.

@Calamondins1 @thesiriusreport War is seldom one-dimensional. Focus on SoH misses bigger issues. But itvis so simple it attracts small minds. Good point.

@thesiriusreport LMAO Iran is going bankrupt because of the US blockade. The US doesn't need to take Hormuz, blocking the Gulf makes the situation unsustainable for Iran.

The US is admitting they don't intend entering the Strait of Hormuz or the Persian Gulf. Why? Because they know their ships will be sunk immediately. So the US is not going to wrestle control of the Strait of Hormuz from Iran. Furthermore if the US blockade truly worked they wouldn't be sanctioning the teapot refineries in China who continue to be in receipt of Iranian oil, via of course the Strait of Hormuz and their mythical blockage. The US military paper tiger continues to expose itself via its own actions.

@thesiriusreport @StephenKalil Focus on SoH misses bigger picture. But I know its fun saying Trumps an idiot, so carry on

@Cdn_Professor @Bratt_world @PatriotNorth1 Bratt is just uninformed in the ways of government deceit. I believe she’s sincere

@Bratt_world @PatriotNorth1 Bratt is a paid liberal.

What carbon tax ? Carney ended that didn’t he ? And also paused the excise tax 🤔

@Bratt_world Read beyween lines. Says ‘doesnt apply directly’. It applies indirectly. Its designed to not look lile consumer tax. It is a producer tax. It gets factored in by providers, but you cant see it. Butvits yhere.

Conservatives are stupid

Jesse, your post is textbook grievance rhetoric dressed up as “collaboration.” Let’s stick to the facts you conveniently ignore. The BC Supreme Court in Cowichan Tribes v. Canada (2025 BCSC 1490) just ruled that Aboriginal title overrides private fee-simple property rights in Richmond. Crown grants are now “defective.” That’s not negotiation, that’s a veto that turns every title search in the province into a legal lottery for non-Indigenous owners. Your claim that repealing DRIPA “divides” British Columbians is backwards: DRIPA’s race-based FPIC regime is the divider. It hands one group a permanent procedural hammer while every other citizen waits in line. The numbers are brutal and public record. Over $670 billion in resource projects stalled. 84,000 energy jobs lost. BC posted its first population decline in 151 years in 2025, shedding over 41,000 residents. Forestry mills are closing. Investment is fleeing. All while the Auditor General has repeatedly flagged $24–32 billion in annual federal Indigenous spending, up 84% since 2015, as delivering “unsatisfactory” results: on-reserve employment stuck at 47% versus 74% off-reserve, chronic boil-water advisories, and housing backlogs that never shrink. Contrast that with the modern treaties that actually work: Nisga’a and Tsawwassen. They delivered extinguishment, finality, individual property rights, and full s. 15 Charter equality. No parallel vetoes. No endless litigation. Actual prosperity. Those are the agreements that treat every Canadian as an equal citizen under one law. Your UNDRIP/DRIPA model doesn’t “reconcile”, it entrenches a parallel governance industry that pays lawyers and consultants while ordinary British Columbians foot the bill for stalled growth and eroded property rights. Negotiation without finality is just permanent rent-seeking. Repealing the veto provisions isn’t extremism; it’s restoring the rule of law and economic sanity. Evidence over excuses. Precision over propaganda. One law for all. Citizens first. Canada first.

@RickF35464 @JonathanTurley Conflate = “reaffirm” Its an example of patently biased story. The VRAct was not “gutted”. One single thing found to be ‘unconstitutional’. 99% of a good law stays in effect. Calling it “gutted” is the near opposite of truth. One thing found to be discrimination.

Why are you conflating these two issues Jonathan? NPR was defunded by Congress in a recessions bill back in July of 2025. This bill clawed back $1.1 billion for the Corp for Public Broadcasting and cut all remaining funding for public broadcasting for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. This had nothing to do with any current broadcast around the VRA ruling.

NPR just reaffirmed why it lost federal funding. It ran a segment that falsely claimed that the Court “gutted” the Voting Rights Act and suggested that Callais rolled back on protections against Jim Crow laws…jonathanturley.org/2026/05/04/col…

@jessecmccormick The Cons arent ‘dividing’. They are creating new framework. The existing path was so badly done the broad public feels betrayed.

As a First Nations person living in British Columbia, listening to the BC Conservative Party candidates try to divide this province is always disappointing. Negotiations and collaboration are the pathways to success. Not this.

@jessecmccormick Then why did the NDP not negotiate nor collaborate with the public. The actual risk here is that the public feels and was excluded from negotiation. Result is severe danage to Reconciliation. I think Cons approach is better for True Reconciliation.

@Acyn Constantly used not = good thing to do. It remains irresponsible BC of his visbility and publicity of it. Dangerous snd irresponsible

AG Todd Blanche tells Kristen Welker that individuals selling 86 merchandise or posting messages similar to Comey’s seashell post will not be prosecuted: “Of course not. That’s posted constantly. That phrase is used constantly.”
