Trump’s tirade:

“Someone should get these clowns to ‘fall in line’ or, the consequences for Canada will be far WORSE!”

We say: BDS
The @theguardian.com has done an excellent job on how Canadians are using the boycott to defend our sovereignty.
We shut down American booze.
We stopped travel and there is a major fight to limit US produce in the stores.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

This isn't a trade war. This is Donald Trump trying to drag Canada into the massive political dumpster fire he started in Washington.
Canadians won't be bullied. We will remain: True. North. Strong Free.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Trump’s new acting CFPB director in charge of reigning in predatory financial institutions is literally promoting a predatory payday lender.

This clown Dan Bongino is now the deputy director of the FBI: “Donald Trump can sit there. He can even wear, like, the wigs they wear in the U.K. court system, and he can just start making judicial decisions”
Dan Bongino: "How about Donald Trump, in the East Room of the White House, sets up a courtroom — like, remember the Batman movie, Scarecrow has the courtroom, or is it the Bane one? Was that the Dark Knight or whatever? That’s what we need to do." www.mediamatters.org/dan-bongino/...
Dan Bongino recommends that court orders against the Trump administration "should be ignored"

If the CDN government pays for new ferries under the defence budget, we could call them part of the navy (and bump up CDN spending towards our NATO commitment)
AHOY THERE!

"JUST DO IT."

"with global shipbuilding costs already rising over 40% in just the past four years, delaying the procurement of these vessels would lead to significantly higher costs in the future, including for customers."

BC Ferries moves ahead on plan to build five new NMV ferries
The NMV project proposes to replace four aging vessels and add one new vessel to the fleet

Week three, day four. Chaos seems like an insufficient term to grasp the confusion and fear that has overtaken many of our government institutions, not just the ones Elon Musk is occupying, Times columnist Anita Chabria writes.
Column: Is it a coup if it's legal? When you make the rules, it's hard to break them
Is Elon Musk fronting a coup of the U.S. government? While pundits are quick to use the word, the truth is Musk's shadow power may be legal.

Panamanian President Mulino caved to Trump - under invasion threat - to cancel a Chinese port contract BUT he requested the US pay to remove undocumented migrants from Panama “We can do that, without a problem, under the total cost of the US. Panama won’t invest a single dollar in it.”
