    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    What’s your guess here? Deployed before Flip-Flop flip-flopped last (?) Something else? Bullshit like “the boats have to be parked somewhere” back in early February? Some lip service to “stabilize” commodity prices? That’s about 30 hours of global oil consumption. Something like this above...

    The Donroe Doctrine

Speaking later to a...

    Trumps messaging is at best confusingly mixed. (YouTube & Trump considers 'winding down' Iran war and leaving Strait of Hormuz crisis to 'other nations') Most of the comments I’m reading to kinda get a finger on the pulse are similar in their feel. Earlier in the day was this: (YouTube & Iran...

    Good question, but it sure sounds like Trump is conceding defeat while claiming victory right now. Like literally right now. President Donald Trump has been claiming victory in a military conflict with Iran while simultaneously urging other nations to secure the Strait of Hormuz, which the...

    USMCA

    Some kind of feedback effect? Amplifying? Causing a standing wave of retardation? It sounds scientifically plausible.🤔 Wow…I was gonna say you can’t make this up…but apparently you can, & Google AI concurs with the assessment of the situation.😳

    Polievere on Joe Rogan

    Wasn’t it a tax revolt? By Englishman, who were becoming Americans, against Englishmen that were still in England? Ties back to the Magna Carta. Taxation without representation, etc…? Something along those lines? Ironically, Poilievre was talking about it on Joe Rogan, but I was busy and sorta...

    In the days before the Persian new year festival of Nowruz, Iranians would usually be excitedly preparing. "We'd be busy getting ready … cleaning the house, shopping for new clothes, sweets and snacks," says Mina, a woman in her 50s in Damavand, northeast of Tehran. But this year will be...

    USMCA

    The “U.S.” being the current administration, vs “Americans” being the American population….then I concur with your assessment of the situation. Americans are awesome and great Neighbours, but the current administration, not so much.

    Polievere on Joe Rogan

    Well, we did I guess. Trumps repeated hammering of the “51st State” & “Governor (insert PM)” panicked Eastern Canada, & Carney won the election. It is what it is. Anyway, here’s the CBC’s short take & spin on Poilievre on Rogan…& even they’re stretching to find fault in this. (YouTube &...
