Alberta is where the oil is (thus, Edmonton Oilers). Would probably be okay with Manitoba, too. You probably have some hippies in Winnipeg, but otherwise it's probably just North North Dakota.

I kind of suspected this might be the true end game. Perhaps everything west of Ontario is the goal???

Just curious, how did EX-USAID Chief Samantha Power accumulate a net worth of $30 million?

Ya, I don’t understand the whole Gaza takeover/rebuild talk. Maybe Trump should be looking at taking over the Maldives instead.

Meanwhile, 500 lbs in food rots. On the docks.

Strictly hypothetical question of Constitutional Procedure...

If a judge/court makes a ruling, and members of the Executive Branch just ignore it, then what??

With inflation up mainly because of tariffs, can we blame inflation on Trump now?

Stop, yes I voted for the guy but not for these stupid tariffs.

oh didn't you hear? Inflation is good now. This is the political messaging these two parties just love to manipulate...you can tell whatever story you want and one extreme of the aisle will just eat it up while the other side goes insane at every move.

Then there are those of us with rational sense, that realizes most of what politicians do is just continue to eff us in every way possible while doing whatever they can to benefit themselves.
