I think the premise is correct. Carney's instincts are to be statesmanlike, but the average Canadian is feeling anything but diplomatic. The anger needs an outlet, or it will turn on Carney. Some bold moves are needed to make Canadians feel like they aren't powerless. #cdnpoli #uspoli

What the actual fuck? Dr. Jay Bhattacharya is the acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. He concurrently serves as the director of the National Institutes of Health. He is also attempting mass murder, which, in short, makes him a terrorist. #uspoli #antivax #uspoli #cdc

Foreclosures increased 21% in the first half of this year. Student loan defaults are at a record high. Total household debt is also at a record high of $18.8 trillion. Meanwhile, corporate profits are the highest they’ve ever been. “New Golden Age” for whom?
Anyone still watching Bill Maher thinking he's just a plain-spoken individualist should get their head examined. First, his "charming" dinner with Trump and now his bromance with Vance, he's morphed into a first-class MAGA jackass. #cdnpoli #uspoli

Yes, wildfire smoke and snowstorms do sometimes come from Canada. But when was the last time you read the headline "cool breeze from Canada gives relief from punishing heat wave" in the US media?
Honestly, these people are dolts. Canada a) doesn't control lightning, b) doesn't control drought conditions, and c) has no ability to "maintain" the largest boreal forest in the world. #cdnpoli #uspoli
