@BohuslavskaKate Not to mention the fact that Zelenskyy is providing expertise & drones to the US military to defend against Iranian drones...while fighting the fucking war that @SecWar is complaining about.

Hegseth: "We're still dealing with the environment Joe Biden created—depleting our stockpiles and sending them to Ukraine instead of our own military. Every time we face a challenge, it traces back to 'Well, sent it to Ukraine.'" It looks like they’re just going to blame Ukraine whenever anything goes wrong now, doesn’t it? It’s depressing to watch because while this administration will eventually leave office, a segment of Americans will keep hating Ukraine without even remembering why.

@pelositracker Nepotism has it's privileges.

Breaking: The President's son is on a heater Donald Trump Jr's fund invested in one of the only U.S. rare earth magnet startups at a $200M valuation Three months later, the Pentagon awarded Vulcan a $620M loan and the Commerce Dept took a $50M equity stake In February, Trump announced a $12B rare earth strategic reserve Today, the company is now valued at $2 billion. That's a 10x for Trump Jr in under a year Vulcan is building the largest rare earth magnet factory outside of China. The U.S. says it needs to stop relying on China, which controls 90% of global rare earth processing The timing is either the greatest coincidence in investing history, or it isn't

Today I shared a humbling induction ceremony with many extraordinary citizens of the greatest country in the world. 🇨🇦 The honour of my life. Canada forever. 🇨🇦

@wartranslated But you're selling munitions to Europe which they send to Ukraine. Or at least you used to. Russia is involved in both wars.

US Secretary of Defense Hegseth: Munitions being called for shipment to Ukraine would be better used "in our own interests."

@jurgen_nauditt You can bet that Trump will make a deal to import Potash from Belarus to screw Canada @PremierScottMoe.

The US is lifting sanctions against Belarusian banks and potassium, according to US Special Envoy John Cole. This is outrageous! Trump rewards aggressors, mass murderers, and dictators while blackmailing and insulting the victim, Ukraine. According to Cole, the restrictions against the Belarusian Ministry of Finance, the Belarus Development Bank, and Belinvestbank will be lifted. Furthermore, the Belarusian Potash Company and Belaruskali, the main producers of potash fertilizers, will be removed from the US sanctions list. The US Special Envoy stated that the lifting of the restrictions would be swift and noted that he had discussed this matter with officials from the Ministry of Finance before his visit to Minsk.

This regime thinks you're ignorant and will unthinkingly follow whatever Trump leads us into. Americans know there was no threat; even his own people can't explain it. #UnderTrumpGasStinks

The world’s eyes are on the situation in the Middle East and the Gulf region. The Iranian regime’s constant strikes against its neighbors are significantly destabilizing markets and disrupting critically important energy supply routes. Many around the world are now speaking about the protection of energy facilities, the inadmissibility of energy terror against entire nations, and free and safe navigation. All of this is indeed a global interest. Many of these statements repeat what Ukraine was saying back in 2022 and 2023 about Russia’s naval blockade of our ports and its attempts to deprive us of access to global trade. For years, Russia has been doing to our energy system the same thing the Iranian regime is now doing to infrastructure in its own region. There can be no other motive for such deliberate aggression against energy – whether it is Russian strikes on our power plants and gas production, or the current strikes by the Iranian regime against everyone around it – other than to inflict suffering on entire nations. That is why it is so important that global cooperation, at least now, is able to provide real security responses for everyone, including Europe. Strikes by the remnants of the Iranian regime against Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, and other countries are in essence strikes against global stability and Europe’s energy security. Ukraine is ready to join common security initiatives to stabilize the situation as quickly as possible. Ukraine has long proposed creating realistic and effective instruments to hold accountable those who block maritime trade routes, destroy normal navigation, and target energy infrastructure. Ukraine endured this winter under Russian strikes. The Middle East and the Gulf region are now facing the same evil. Russia and the Iranian regime are not helping each other by chance. They must be stopped, and it is the responsibility of every world leader to ensure real stability and guarantee security. Together, we are undoubtedly stronger.

“The vast majority of Canadians (74%) want Canada to stay out of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.”

ICE detain 7 year old girl from Canada—who suffers from severe autism. She's traumatized in loud & overcrowded cell—no reason she can't be at home with her legal stepfather. "They are being unlawfully detained," he said. "My wife and daughter's papers are good and up to date." He provided his wife's social security documentation—that prove she is a lawful alien with a right to work in the U.S. Mother and child are currently locked up at the Ursula ICE detention center in McAllen, Texas—notorious for having child "cages."

What has become clear is Pierre Poilievre has no clue about trade, energy, or the auto industry. His vision for Canada is to return to the status quo with the USA (and Trump). That is unrealistic and naive. World leaders are now following Prime Minister Carney.

@MorningsMaria @SecScottBessent Just so you know...Trump's all oil no...renewables policy is gonna make this a whole lot worse for your kids... This is the first time a heat advisory has been issued in the Bay Area during March. weather.com/forecast/regio…

🚨BREAKING🚨“We may unsanction Iranian oil that’s on the water… The U.S. could unilaterally do another SPR release to keep the price down.” - @SecScottBessent

@HQNewsNow Your denials aren't helping @JamesComer...Trump is the worst of the worst and you guys have sold your souls to defend him. SAD!

GOP Rep. Comer on the Epstein files: "They have created a narrative, a false narrative that there's a cover-up. And they've created a false narrative that Donald Trump somehow [has] some type of liability in this"

@sarobertsonca And he's been wrestling with politics ever since.

Pierre Poilievre: I was big into sports until my mid-teens. I was on the wrestling team. I wasn't great. I was good, but I wasn't great. Then I got a wicked tendinitis in my shoulder, and it ended my athleticism for like four years, and that's how I got into politics."

@Acyn Meanwhile in the US...average Americans are struggling to fed their families while @SecWar and @realDonaldTrump driven by their radical ideology want them to pay $200 billion to invest in missiles & UAVs for their war on Iran. It's the stupidity Stupid!

Hegseth: Iran is an energy rich country. instead, like so many other places, driven by a radical ideology, instead of investing in their people… they invested in missiles, and they invested in launchers and UAVS.

Without a touch of irony...

JUST IN: 🇴🇲🇺🇸 Oman's Foreign Minister says the United States "greatest miscalculation" was allowing itself to be drawn into war with Iran. "This is not America's war, and there is no likely scenario in which both Israel and America will get what they want from it."

@atrupar We don't need anything from you...get off my lawn!

Trump: "We don't need much. We don't need anything honestly from Japan or anyone else. But I think it's appropriate that people step up."

Europe was reportedly preparing for a full-scale war against the United States if they were to invade Greenland. France had offered to send all things necessary to prevent a takeover, Denmark had prepared blood infusions, and explosives to destroy runways. It was code red.

@jimstewartson We all know this war was started on the idea of preventing a country with a dangerously unstable government having nuclear weapons right? American regime change should be a top priority.

🚨He’s floating using a nuke. There needs to be a public bipartisan agreement that if he does that he will be removed immediately.
