Canada is worth fighting for. Thank you, Calgary. 🇨🇦

If the US thinks Canada isn't complying with the USMCA on dairy, it can file a complaint (which the US did twice, winning the first one but losing the follow-up). By contrast, unilateral tariffs as a response to Canada's dairy policies are not allowed under the agreement.

Americans hear "51st state" as Trump trolling. Canadians hear it as an existential threat to their sovereignty. That gap in perception is why Carney can't afford to look conciliatory, even if the economics of retaliation don't add up. This isn't just a trade war anymore.

"Mark Carney and the Canadian government can sign any number of trade agreements, but you can't change what's in the heart of Canadians right now." Canadian consumers are refusing anything to do with the U.S.A.⁣ ⁣ https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/would-you-marry-a-man-with-seven

Building a stronger, more resilient Canadian economy.

We are at the “r/finance is posting fancams of Chair Powell set to Taylor Swift” point in the cycle of regret over Temu Greenspan.

cult shit at the White House as Trump's cronies give him a standing ovation for minutes on end. Note how nobody wants to be the first to stop clapping.

CANADA'S PM CARNEY: EVERYTHING IS ON THE TABLE IF THERE IS NO DEAL ON THE LATEST TARIFFS THREAT FROM THE US.

No contact with the outside world, he tweeted.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

Happy Sunday. The only thing you should watch today. The message from Eric to thousands of graduates - don’t ask questions just shut up and sit down anywhere you can on the AI rocket ship. GLWT

“Canada is consistently recognized as the country most likely to have a positive impact on world affairs. “Meanwhile, the United States has seen its positive influence on the world stage fall again.” cultmtl.com/2026/05/cana...

Cleveland fans spiking the football after their highest paid team in the league got taken to 7 by a team missing two starters giving insane minutes to rookies and sophomores. Their in game songs are lamest in the league. Joakim Noah was right.

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

A brief, recent history of the Washington Post: 1- Trump wins in 2024. 2- Bezos and minions make series of Trump-friendly changes to paper. 3-Readership tanks. 4- Bezos and minions fire tons of employees while telling them the audience just doesn't like what they're doing.

The president, when asked about the survivors of the sex trafficking ring run by his best friend the pedophile, ignores the question and instead lashes out at the "young woman" who asked it, saying she never smiles and is someone to be ashamed of.

"There’s no talk about a mutually beneficial relationship; Canada, Trump says, is not even a vassal state. Its very existence is dependent on the US, which means it is dependent on him personally. 'Canada lives because of the US,' he says, like a domestic abuser sneering." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

Canada is bigger, stronger, and more prosperous when we’re united.

Trump demands Carney give him his standing ovation from Davos

Attempting to criminalize the actions of an independent public servant, Fed Chair Jay Powell, for the sin of acting independently is an outrage. It's bad economics, bad politics, bad for the rule of law, bad for the public sector, bad for American credibility and bad for Americans.

Man, big day for 2 + 2 = 5

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

Over on Xitter the Attorney General is pointing to a study that only goes through last year to claim she's fixed the fentanyl crisis. www.researchgate.net/publication/...

Can’t change, won’t change

When Canada deepens ties with China, it's not romance, it's risk management. If the U.S. keeps slapping tariffs and rewriting rules, partners diversify. Reliability is an economic asset; squander it, and trade flows and influence quietly move elsewhere.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

CASSIDY: I know it's titillating, but I think we need to move beyond the titillation TAPPER: This isn't about titillation. This is about the fact that you are the chairman of the health committee and you voted to confirm somebody that by all accounts is actually making America less healthy

Borelli: She spent four years in the House trolling people for no reason Mockler: She learned it from Trump. Trump posts AI videos of Obama being arrested, Jeffries in a sombrero. Her style is downstream from Trump’s.

Elizabeth Warren on Colbert's show: "We don't think one corporation or one man named David Ellison should be able to buy up all the shows and buy up all the sports and buy up all the news and decide who watches what and I'm gonna stay in that fight."

“If you’re quiet now, you would’ve been quiet in 1940.”

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.

Here’s video of federal agents doing a drive by pepper spraying that hit a father and his one-year old on Saturday when the Feds were hitting Little Village and Cicero

Trump getting booed at the Commanders game

The president seems to have been briefed on how the tariffs oral argument at SCOTUS went:

Our doddering octogenarian president. "A WaPo analysis of multiple videofeeds found that Trump spent nearly 20 minutes apparently battling to keep his eyes open… The White House denied that Trump was dozing during the Oval Office event and suggested the question was inappropriate.”

Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways: First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices. Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.

“Trump died on December 8, three weeks before Christmas. The news broke during evening programming. Within three hours, coverage had settled into rhythm: the same footage, the same talking heads, the same speculation. No one yet understood what his death would reveal.” My newest piece:
