I read yesterday that a Canadian politician proposed a 100% tariff on Teslas. Is there any way that we can let Canada know that we support this and that they should go ahead with it? And is there any other way that we can show our support for Canada and for Mexico?

We need to start a boycott here in the U.S. and not just Tesla. Companies are getting away with caving to Trump/Musk, because they can. But the most important thing to companies is their customer base. I don't know all the companies that are caving and those standing up to Trump and a single boycotter is not effective. We need a website (created by MeidasTouch?) that lists the companies that are caving on DEI, etc. and doing worse things along with those who are not caving. Remember the Bud Light boycott? Budweiser was not happy. We need to advertise the number of people supporting the boycotts. We need to go online and say we are supporting the boycotts. That's something easy all of us can do. I'm one of the ones that cancelled my subscriptions to the NYT and WaPo and lots of others did too. We also need to return to MSNBC (which I have done). Enough with pouting (which I did) and time to return to action and supporting those companies and media organizations that are doing the right thing.

If we know someone who was fired unfairly, we could help them out by making sure they have food. If you are financially able to help with bills, then do that. Don't let people suffer because they stood up to the evil ones, I want them to know they aren't alone.

Love your spunk! TO Medias suggestion on DEI is a great start. Keep up with suggestions Nancy. I cancelled Amazon membership, weakened and reopened. Will cancel today. Why don't you start a Resistance Substack?

You can do it. I cancelled my Prime membership and I will boycott anyone that supports tRump and his maga toadies. From now on, my shopping will begin with ‘Are you a tRump supporter?’ and if the answer is yes, I say bye. If no, I say BUY.

I am just a "bookish" university professor/engineer who never even did social media until after this election (one of the few people on Earth who never had a Facebook or Twitter account). I have no idea how to start a Substack. But I will work with and support others.

Look for the "Goods Unite Us" app in both Apple and Android. Use your dollars to support the businesses that support you are your values. It has been an amazing tool in divesting from maga funding companies.

Also, has anyone else noticed that dumpf appears to be reading from a script when he’s doing news conferences now? That’s what makes me think that musk is writing the script.

It's either Musk or Miller. Trump is illiterate, prideful and ignorant. He can't put a sentence together as evidenced by his word salad nonsensical statements and responses to reporters questions. He cannot "fly" without a script.

Who gives a shit. Let him. We, the Americans, ALLOWED HIM TO GIVE HIMSELF HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF OUR DOLLARS. (not sure HOW that wasn’t stopped to begin with) That wealth belongs to us - the working class! And we do care about EQUITY. Many Americans totally support Canada’s response to tariffs and hate Trump and Musk.

Yeah, but think of the money of the attorneys will make and trying to win that argument. We need to focus on musk. He’s pulling Donald strings and if we don’t start focusing more on what he’s doing in the background, we’re gonna be in even more shit.

Why not a major lawsuit over Musk?

He is exerting powers that are not in his authority

He is being given obviously social security numbers and data that he has no power or right to have

His, whatever it is dodge(sp) is not an official government agency

He has not been vetted

Nor approved by the house or senate

Why is no one filing a lawsuit over all of this ?

He has no right to treasury or HR information.

Otherwise if lawsuits don’t work, we know he is a ketamine abuser.

Right there should deny him clearance.

I can’t I am not a lawyer

Someone do this!

Musk is also here illegally.

Deport him and confiscate his billions

Think it is time to even things up don't you? In business they have groups that go on different projects.

What if we the people fight back the same way? Start a business to go after the corporate groups each targeting Republicans that are kissing the ring. It's an idea!

Orange turd can’t think for himself. Musk is pulling his strings and telling him what to say. Dumpf doesn’t know how to think for himself. There’s somebody else that’s got more pull and that has to be musk.

Frankly, he appears to be Stoned or half Drunk now, every time we see him. I cannot help but remember an episode of “Star Trek”, when they find that a former college professor has started a new Nazi state on his new planet, mainly because his immediate advisors drugged him and gave him a script to follow so THEY could take over. Far Fetched? I don’t think so. I know a stoner when I see one.

I honestly think that his dementia is getting worse. Have you noticed that when he talks, his speech is flat and monotone? And your analogy to that Star Trek episode is very appropriate. Not far fetched at all. Musk is the puppeteer pulling the Felon's strings.

Someone should start a class action against Musk Rat meddling with the FAA, and Airline Safety Board he helped Gut! Musk Rat is not above the law like Donald is! 67 people are no longer with us due to Musk wanting to avoid a FFA 600k lawsuit! And Threatening 180 senators to vote to de-fund the FAA or they will be primarried? Elon should have jail time for what he did! His actions is why 67 are no longer here!! He has no guilt! Nor does Conald!!

You're right! That's why China got a tariff discount! The entire thing is absurd! I'm convinced Donald and Musk are now feeding their personality disorders with our annoyed remarks!! Or

hey Don Jr? Tell Daddy we wanna see his medical records! Including what you helped him with at the PA. Hospital ER? You know where the top of his ear was shot off and he stopped bleeding in a few minutes?? Was that because of the mcdonalds happy meals? Or that's the reason the bullet trajectory on his right cheek disapeared?

What meds are you taking out from the Whitehouse pharmacy? Dads still taking Ambien for sleep and a stimulant for the day?

I also want our Canadian immigration office to rescind and burn🔥 Musk’s Canadian Citizenship and passport ASAP. He is the antithesis of Canadian values and his complicity in the orange felon’s expansionist agenda is traitorous against Canada🦫🍁🇨🇦.
