Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

Maybe the Fox bobbleheads should shut it and check the numbers. Kimmel pulled 15 million viewers last night. Those are not “low ratings,” that’s a beatdown.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man. Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent. We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate. My latest piece.

erininthemorning.comWe Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful LifeInfluential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

All I have to say is freedom of religion means the fuckin government needs to stay neutral🖕 Do they not see what’s going on in the USA and world 🖕 Atheists do good because it’s the morally right thing to do not because some fake grifting preacher tells you a woman doesn’t have the right to choose 🖕

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats. Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.

Pollara Strategic Insight's latest Rage Poll. "But 78 per cent of respondents were angry with the new U.S. president, who has launched a trade war against Canada, while eight per cent were happy and 14 per cent had no opinion." So basically a fuck off to the orange addled menace
