Thank you Canada. We are so sorry for Trump. Half of us who didn't drink the Kool aid did not vote for Trump. I myself cannot understand. But it is propaganda media that is to blame. Remember we love Canada.

So many of us know that, Cindy. We can’t get too self-righteous up here. Ontario, the most populous province in Ontario, is in the middle of a snap election and will like re-elect a premier who admires Trump and who had cut a grossly overpriced deal with Starlink after your election. Latest I’ve is the deal is back off after being back on from being off. Voter apathy and a dearth of independent local media play a huge role.

Ana I don’t understand why your province would pay Starlink 100 million dollars I live in rural Manitoba and they have Starlink here you just buy the dish and boom set it up and download the app and pay monthly why does the province of Ontario need to pay 100 million to Elon ? He charges 157.00 Canadian a month for his Internet !

Whoa, Cindy! Have you been to Canada during the part of the year they mistakingly call summer? It is like early spring weather. The bugs and mosquitoes are capable of sending you for a blood transfusion. My wife and I had to run through the forest. One couple was enjoying lunch in bee keeper outfits. Canadians are fine. The beer is good.

Jackie C.'s avatar

Michael Krieg, LOL, do your due diligence about where you're going. Spring is the worst time for mosquitoes, they start to recede when it gets really hot. And they LOVE humans that camp in the forests, easy pickings! You must always use bug spray if you're there during mosquito season. They are relentless, as you now know. Oh, and always wear light colours, never black. Or is the other way around? LOL it's been a while, I'm Canadian and learned that lesson a long time ago :)

No! In fact, they're steadily going up, up, up! Eggs now have at least tripled in price or worse. Before he came in they were about $3.49 for XL or Jumbo grass fed and now they have gone to $10-$14 a dozen! We found out just last weekend when we went grocery shopping. Trader Joe's is the only place that still has their eggs at $3.49/doz!

That would be awesome! I am glad we are starting to see a few, hopefully growing to many, speaking! As a person here in the Midwest, it is daunting to know WHO we can trust, who we can speak with, who we can share our thoughts and files! It can feel scary but we are still ready to do as much as we can to save our country! Thank you to all of you! We appreciate the facts and great work!

If 7 people can break into our treasury computers they can certainly break into voting machine, computers! Am I the only one who sees this link? South Korea demonstrated democracy better than Americans! Their political system, leaders came together to ensure South Korea was not over taken. It did take a few days, we need to move faster! The mainstream media kowtows to the president, Elon (lovingly called Leon by the president), and the right! We must shine a light on corruption and darkness! This is a coup in real time! We have to protest peacefully! Protesting is going to be more dangerous than it was previously! And more necessary than ever before! This is a coup we never thought we would see on our shores, but they brought it here and here is where we must make a stand! We must DEfeat, DEfend, DEfy this hostile takeover, to save our DEmocracy! As protesters we must think and act outside of the box! We must be ready for the fight, we didn’t start the fight but we will meet those who did on the battlefield they created! They are no longer the party of law and order! They no longer back our policemen or our protectors! We are in a battle with fascism! Know and contact your elected officials!

Liz said it best! GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, "I say this to my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: there will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain,"

Here is a great biting comment from a warrior! Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) faulted President Trump and Elon Musk, the head of the Department of Government Efficiency, for the Washington, D.C., aviation accident after the president made remarks blaming DEI initiatives and Democrats. “It’s not DEI—it’s him. And Elon too,” she said “on a certain platform I will not give in any of my quotes”, referring to Trump and Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur and head of the Department of Government Efficiency.

Retired U.S. Navy Admiral, and former Navy SEAL, William McRaven destroyed Trump in just a few words: "Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation.”

I am also looking at Democrats who are going with GOP - Stop being nice! Don’t go high, because they are low - that doesn’t work anymore! Let’s follow the lead of Gavin Newsom, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), Adam Kinzinger, Bernie Sanders, Jamie Raskin, Pete Buttigieg, Hakeem Jeffries, Al Green, Canada (the whole f**kin country), leader of Mexico (Claudia Sheinbaum), Rev. Mariann Budde, MeidasTouch Network, Rachel Maddow MSNBC, Jim Acosta, Michelle Obama, stop and get some guts, stop the yellow streak down your back! Our country needs a direction correction!

This was a great “joint-podcast”….you both complement each other! Excellent job and thank you. I attended the rally in front of the Treasure Bldg this week….the Dems are FINALLY waking up! You guys have to announce when these demonstrations/rallies are being held so that more people can attend, - The rallies promote the politicians to come out and speak! Long overdue—- but excellent posturing for the mid-term elections!
