@Vantagemonitor They know exactly what they are doing. How can she live with herself- she could simply reference the manifesto without reading quotes from it. Unbelievable

🚨 What actually happened here This clip is going viral, but the context matters. This was a 60 Minutes interview with Norah O’Donnell, right after that security scare at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington. An armed man had tried to breach the venue. Trump and others were moved out. Investigation started into his motive. During the interview, the reporter read out parts of the attacker’s alleged writings on air. It had some extreme accusations about “administration officials”. That’s when Trump reacted. From his side, it sounded like those words were being repeated on TV and could be linked to him. From the reporter’s side, she was trying to explain the attacker’s mindset. That mismatch is what blew up the moment. The real question is simple: At what point does reporting cross into amplifying? #trump

@Horacethe1st If this was a white American he would be deported- everyone knows that

In Canada, you can kill 16 teenagers by running a stop sign and avoid being deported because you are brown and they were White.

Trump is the most important President in a century. That's why they're trying to kill him.

The President of the United States was just the target of another assassin attempt tonight…but he called me just now to check in to see how I was doing because my mom died on Wednesday.

I’m balling my eyes out. President Trump “ I want to live to make this country great. That’s why I want to live” Nobody will ever be like Trump America is so blessed 🙏

@msSharanKaur Why do you keep lying

No, the PM doesn’t own Brookfield. Yes, Poilievre’s own investments benefit from Brookfield. Hard to sell outrage when you are full of it.

Marco Rubio finding out they’re about to resume the dinner anyway.

@DrEliDavid @SecRubio Nato needs to end Rand Paul

.@SecRubio: “Macron just said Europe must break away from the US, and not intervene in its wars… When Macron tried to play superpower and fight terrorism in Africa, he couldn't even fly his troops there, we had to fly them for him.” 🤣

@DrEliDavid @SecRubio The United States spends Trillions of dollars on bases in Germany UK Italy, Those countries have free health care free education. It's time we pull out They need to have their own defense and we can focus on people that actually respect us.

@CailinasEirinn @MarcNixon24 Justin Trudeau statement after Trump was elected. And yet, just a few weeks ago, the United States voted for a second time to not elect its first woman president". Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico- how did mex respond - not like Canada

@MarcNixon24 Dude. They trashed us first. So we’re going with people we can trust.

CBC panelist just said Canadians are excited about Mark Carney getting closer to China because we’re fed up with Trump. We’re seriously talking about turning our backs on our largest trading partner to cozy up to a regime famous for censorship, total state control, and brutal human rights abuses. Canada are we okay? 🇨🇦 What am I missing here?

@CharleyXRP Without Trump Canada would have done nothing. You can thank Trump for increased defense spending. You can thank Trump for eliminating inter provincial trade You can Trump for Canada looking to diversify our trade. You can thank Trump for pipeline expansion.

You people are missing the point. We don't need the Americans. Carney has signed one of the largest trade deals ever in the world with the brics countries. We're diversifying trade away from Americans that will cause shortage of Canadian goods and allow us to increase our prices. Moreover, we should cut our oil deliveries United States and we should cut off all our electricity and hydro to the United States. Enough is enough

@sunlorrie Yes we are :( Canadians will continue to suffer affordability issues taxes the list goes on and the elite in Quebec and Ontario will continue to run the country

COLUMN: Is Canada becoming a one-party state? While the federal Liberals smugly refer to themselves as Canada’s natural governing party, the historical record suggests it may be true, despite the danger it poses to democracy. torontosun.com/opinion/column…

@Provocative_one @sunlorrie U forgot about Joe Clark lol

@sunlorrie In my lifetime, there has only ever been TWO conservative governments. Brian Mulroney’s and Stephen Harper’s. I’m 59 years old. So Canada IS essentially a one party state. And look where that’s gotten us.

This week was tough. I had dinner with my intelligent friends from European countries, people who have spent half their lives working within the United Nations. We were having a good time until the conversation turned to Donald Trump and Iran. Everyone, without exception, spoke badly of Trump: that he causes problems for everyone, that war is terrible, that it is illegal, and so on. I stayed silent. When everyone finally became quiet, I asked only one question: who is actually going to collect and remove those more than 400 kilograms of uranium? My French friend said: Trump is no better than the regime. On top of that, he has started an illegal war, and many countries have nuclear power plants why shouldn’t Iran have them too? I exploded inside, but I remained silent at first. When I finally broke my silence, I said: was it illegal when the United States helped the French during the Second World War? Was it unnecessary? Then silence returned. I kept thinking about how to express everything happening inside me; how to explain the regime to a European-someone surrounded by left-wing ideology, enclosed within indirect forms of censorship, and always ready to say that war is terrible, yet surprised when I say many Iranians wanted it. How do you explain to people who live in safety that some nations sometimes see outside pressure as the only remaining path when every internal path has been closed? How do you explain that they do not even speak in geopolitical terms, but judge only from a position of moral comfort, while others are speaking about survival? Europeans who, despite democracy and free internet, still do not know what happened in Iran on January 8–9. Europeans who believe every conflict can be understood through the same moral template. Europeans who condemn all violence in theory, but have never had to live under a Islamic system where violence is part of everyday life. And I sat there with the feeling that the distance between our realities was greater than the table around which we were sitting…

🚨PRINCE REZA PAHLAVI JUST WENT FULL NUCLEAR ON THE ENTIRE EU PRESS & PARLIAMENT! 🔥🧨 I want to speak DIRECTLY to the people of Europe. In the past two weeks I held TWO MAJOR press conferences — one in Stockholm, one in Berlin. Over 150 JOURNALISTS showed up. We spent MORE THAN TWO HOURS with them… And guess what? NOT ONE SINGLE of those 150 journalists asked about the 40,000 IRANIANS SLAUGHTERED on the streets of my country on January 8th and 9th! NOT ONE asked about the 19 political prisoners EXECUTED in the last two weeks. When I told them 20 more are currently sentenced to death — CRICKETS. Not a damn question. I stood right next to a grieving mother and father who lost their sons in that massacre and begged them to listen to their stories… NOT A SINGLE ONE of those 150 journalists asked them a thing. Let that sink in. My 40,000 BRAVE INNOCENT COMPATRIOTS who were butchered fighting for liberty? They don’t give a damn. They are too busy criticizing America and Israel for taking out the dictator who’s been slaughtering our people for 47 YEARS — instead of going after the regime that’s actually doing the killing! They’d rather dig up Iran’s history than talk about what’s happening RIGHT NOW or the free democratic Iran we’re fighting for. One EU parliament member even had the nerve to say Iranians aren’t ready for democracy. To that coward and to every fake journalist in the room I say this: Iranians aren’t just “ready” for democracy… 40,000 of them just DIED for it! And I will NOT let their blood be in vain. SO HEAR ME LOUD AND CLEAR: Whether Europe stands with us or not… Whether your journalists do their damn jobs or not… Whether your politicians grow a spine or not… I WILL FIGHT FOR MY PEOPLE AND MY COUNTRY. Even if we have to do this ALONE — we are fighting until IRAN IS FREE! 🇮🇷💪 #RezaPahlavi‌ForIran @PahlaviReza

@EricRStPierre Jack

It's been a very long day on four hours of sleep. Worked, worked out (new bench pr woo!), did some errands and got to take Luna out for some adventures on the Bruce Trail. I'm beat. Have a great night folks!

@EricRStPierre @rodger_stuckey Yep just the beginning of the housing crash. I am on realtor daily its incredible. The semi in sold in 2021 for 565 going for 380 now. Mortgage renewals this year and next

@rodger_stuckey Ironically there isn't much getting built. We're in a full on housing crash now.

Question of the day: Why haven't Canadian grasped the fact that they've just experienced the greatest coup in Canadian history?

@EricRStPierre @Trevor81593648 Its too late. Our fate is sealed. Canada is on its way to Venezuela type country. Perhaps Trump could snatch Carney. This response will likely get me arrested lol

@Trevor81593648 It's bizarre that folks don't grasp the severity of what has just occurred. Never before has a majority in the house of commons been won by politicians conspiring against their constituents. Canada is now in uncharted waters. Folks gotta get loud before it's too late.

@EricRStPierre @awakeinAB77 So there was not one liberal politician in Canada who would havd won an election. So the LPC recruit MC and start an anti American Trump campaign with all their media helping out. No discussion on the last 10 years of policies and they win. Canadians are that dumb.

@awakeinAB77 Stages of grief for sure. Denial is strong right now thanks to the propaganda. Let's accelerate the 'regret' phase by exposing how voters' minority mandate was stolen, before acceptance locks it in.
