The American people are not the same as the American government; have to think the remaining ice cube now has a very limited shelf life, and that his people are worried.  

 

Interesting how out of touch you are with what's going on in the good ol' USA.

 

But if Canada is any indication-  the country is in desperate need of real leadership.

 

The US will take care of your defense, but you'll have to fix the other shit like no economic growth and unfettered immigration.

Huh?

 

Within the propaganda world, it's called intentionally changing the topic .... 'cause you don't want to talk about it.

 

A very aggressive 'anti-Trump' video, released on Saturday, yet still not (2 media cycles later, as of late Monday) all over US media? How does that happen? .... unless the story has a gag order on it ????

 

Dictators Handbook ... I'm told somewhere around the 3rd/4th chapter.

What is our felllow CofB&F members' opinion, those living in DC [[Washington D.C.], [noboby mentioned, nobody forgotten], of what's going on in the White House related to iniatives in DC.] ?

 

What's going on at your place, and how bad is it related to your daily day life there?

 

Lot of those in Windsor (car manufacturing), Sous St Marie (steel), Quebec, BC, etc, are being helped out by federal aid programs intended to lessen the impact; they will survive, but everyone is doing whatever they can to avoid anything to do with the US, wherever they can. The more radical would like to stop voluntary cross-border assistance (water bombers putting out fires), the let 'em burn. 

 

The other name for Trumps Washington announcement today is Martial Law. It usually doesn't age well, and indicates a nervousness around public protest/rioting. Washington crime is at the lowest it has been in 30 odd years, and that's a problem?  

 

Those who can afford to, don't buy anything from the US, travel to/through the US, or use US product unless they have to. No US booze, US internet commerce, US tourism, purchase of US product in grocery stores, etc, etc. Surprisingly there are quite a few fairly good substitutes.

 

It is doubtful that it will ever go back to what it was, and a US signature on a purchase order is not as bankable as it once was. It is highly unlikely that our humble craft brewery is ever going to buy US cans again, and the same goes for most of the other things that go into our beer.

 

While beer will cost more per can, customers are OK with paying more for a quality product as long as the money stays in Canada; the drink less, drink better. Of course, if you're a BUD selling on price ... it's an entirely different problem.

What are you talking about?  Unfettered immigration...you guys are the morons with the 10M illegals...not Canada!  Blame whoever you want, but it was both Republican and Democrats who let that happen.

 

In terms of economic growth, Canada's economy relies heavily on commodities.  Oil, gas and mineral prices go up, Canada does well...thanks to your tariffs, our gold mining sector is killing it! 

 

Also, Canada's banks didn't need a global financial bailout like the U.S. during the GFC.  We didn't fake incomes and jobs on mortgage applications...no predatory lending...no JUMBO loans...no ARM loans.  That's the dumb shit that Wall Street does!  You guys are the twats who came up with mortgage backed securities and credit derivatives.

 

We also don't bankrupt our citizens if they can't afford to pay for medical treatment.  Our public schools are a hell of a lot better than yours.  Universities are well regarded and aren't targeted by the Prime Minister.  We supply much of the energy that lights up the Mid-West.  Who you going to come to as your water sources dry out...since climate change doesn't exist.  We'll also supply you with mRNA vaccines when the next pandemic hits and you're wondering why U.S. scientists and doctors weren't prepared.  

 

And in terms of leadership...you have a sexual offender, convicted felon who cheats on his taxes, has been married multiple times, was best friends with one of America's most notorious pedophiles, had multiple mistresses, lies like the Devil himself, sues anyone who offends him, has taken weaponization of the Presidency and courts to unheard of levels and TACO's every time things get hard.  That's who you have as a leader!

 

Canada's leader is a self-made (no Daddy's money), Harvard and Oxford graduate, who ran both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, was in the Group of Thirty, 13 year Goldman Partner, Chair of Brookfield and is well-regarded globally as a leader and human being!  And he's been married to the same woman for nearly 30 years!

 

Cheers!

Just ask the 300,000 missing children that the Trump administration is still searching for....

 

We know how you progressives think: those kids are just collateral damage for your noble goal of opening up the United States to the world.  That worked out well for those poor kids in sex trafficking and illegal labor.

 

Just ask Trump where they are, he has tons of experience working with and paying sex traffickers.

Yeah sure - anyone want to buy a house in Canada?? Forget it!

 

Gotta love Canada's leader - Mr. Globalist, that all he cares about is climate change and nonsense shit like that.  Card carrying member of the Party of Davos. 

He sured did a great job with the Bank of England - Brexit worked out great, even though he did everything to stop it.  Good luck with him saving Canada!

 

I will admit - he's a serious upgrade from Justin!

Democrats took child sex trafficking to a whole new level.  Just think, 300,000 children that Biden "lost track of..." - oh, well, just collateral damage for a progressive agenda gone berserk. 

 

Tom Homan will find them and clean up the mess - it'll take years though

No, there's a big difference!  With variable rate mortgages, your payment stays the same but the payment period increases due to the increased interest unless you choose to pay more.  With adjustable rate mortgages, your actual payment changes...so if interest rates spike, you are fucked if you don't have the income to pay the new mortgage payment!  Which is what happened in the U.S. but not in Canada.  Cheers!

Oh, you mean like Trump's four bankruptcies?  Your leader was hocking China-made bibles while sitting in office.  He's the Ron Popeil of global leaders!  Geez! 

 

When Munger said "we may have seen the peak of a great civilization a few years ago, he was talking about this political climate and rise of someone like Trump! 

 

Like his whole life, he's going to fix some things, but he's going to destroy a shitload of things as well.  It will be a period that America will regret in a couple of decades.  Cheers!

https://oversight.house.gov/release/hearing-wrap-up-taking-action-to-protect-vulnerable-children-exploited-by-the-biden-border-crisis/

 

Key Takeaways:

The Biden Border Crisis created a humanitarian crisis that left over 233,000 unaccompanied alien children (UACs) without proper legal oversight and vulnerable to exploitation. 

 

Rep. Biggs: “This government under Joe Biden, under Joe Biden, received hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children is that fair to say Mr. Cuffari?”

 

IG Cuffari: “The number is around 448,000.”

 

Rep. Biggs: “And of those, do we know where all those 448,000 unaccompanied children are?”

 

IG Cuffari: “As of the date of the report, we did not. Like I mentioned ICE and HHS are now going out in tandem to go and identify where these children are located.”

 

 

 

[LC]

The real humanitarian crisis was the ghettos they were escaping. They are as "missing" as any illigal immigrant who doesn't show up to a court date (to get deported). 

 

If you're so concerned with their wellbeing you should have petitioned the pedo leader to fund HHS, not ICE.

70% of the ICE arrests have been criminals with prior convictions or those with outstanding orders of deportation. 

 

Those removal "laws" were passed long ago by Democrats and Republicans.

Try changing the laws like civilized folks do,

Here - might've found one of those trafficked minors you are so worried about:

Turns out "she" was being solicited by the MAGA congressman who wrote the trump derangement bill.

Is this MAGA just trying to have it both ways? Unfortunately I think so

Not sure what you're referencing with 'changing laws' but I thought ICE was doing a great job with reasonably budget. Now we've got these goofy masked "agents" running around using the constitution as a tissue.

Why did your buddy Biden turn the poor girl over to human traffickers???

 

Unfortunately, that was the fate of 500,000 children, who Biden authorized to be turned over to ANY adult that showed up to get them, WITHOUT any proof of biological connection.  It's unimaginable that a child would be turned over to ANY adult just to get rid of them.  In many cases, several children were listed at single addresses that did not exists. That's why they can't be located.

 

A human smuggling and sex trafficking nightmare - all dreamed up by your hero.

Just now, cubsfan said:

There was no girl...it was police officers posing as a young girl...I guess that pervert spent too much time daydreaming about TDS to know the difference

 

To the larger point, yeah when you've got hundreds of thousands fleeing a hellhole at once, it's logistical nightmare to manage. And do we really expect them to show up to a court date to be deported back to poverty and crime? One can blame Biden for allowing them in, if it's that easy ignoring the humanitarian claims of children. But when there's minimal HHS budget and a republican congress against you, the alternative was even worse. I wouldn't expect MAGA to make those hard choices, though. Easier to just ignore the problem.

Obama Deep state - exposed,  Haha!  What Deep state?!

Democratic Party - in shambles  He may have sowed the seeds for a rebirth!

Crime - dropping like a rock  Crime was already dropping in 2024...the National Guard in Washington is like pissing on a fire after the Fire Fighters have already put it out.

FBI/DOJ traitors - indicted  Traitors or people doing their work and now a dictator has come for their balls?

Late night comedians - fired/laid off  This is MAGA woke...their cancel culture now.

Iran - busted for good  Yeah, jury is still out on that.

Rotten Universities - massively overhauled  Good job overhauling some of your best institutions.  Broad attempt at suppression of free speech.

cultural rot - stopped  Yes, by a man who has been married three times and enjoys grabbing women's pussies without consent.

Traditional American values -reinstated  You got it...grabbing women's pussies without consent and mass shootings.

Military - fixed  Never broken!

censorship - crushed  He's censoring the shit out of anything he doesn't want to hear...literally MAGA cancel culture!

Clinton/Obama/Bush/Biden - buried  Yeah, not buried.  Just a longing for any and all of them by 50% of the U.S. and about 90% of the World!

 

If that is America being destroyed - I'll take total destruction.  Be careful what you wish for...you may be doing more harm than good!
