I think Tucker has a lot of good points, the problem that seems to be pervasive now is that it's become all black and white. I thought Trump was a boob, but that doesn't mean he never did anything good or accomplished anything. But he is so universally despised and dismissed that if he'd have cured cancer he would be blamed for putting cancer doctors out of work.

So, after all the marching to DE-fund the police, and with the POTUS announcing all this new money for more police on the streets, are we now going to have marches to RE-fund the police???

Or will they just be special agents coming for my ghosts?

The re-fund the police rhetoric is only occurring because November is approaching. They've already shown us who they were. I don't believe for a single minute that they've miraculously done a legitimate and meaningful 180 degree pivot.

Very true. Trump did plenty of good things, but you only hear about it from certain sources.

I would say most of anything that Trump did that was good was brought on by other people. Not his ideas. The criminal reform bill may have been one of the few. Did you get behind that?

It's very interesting hearing from Canadian citizens about what's occurring there. Trudeau is as bad as, or worse than, Joe Biden.

It's tough to opine on it, not having experienced both directly, and thus no knowledge of Biden on my end, but it *feels* like Trudeau is worse.

Partly because I feel like Biden's handlers are smart enough to realize that if he actively tries to destroy America, there will one day (and probably fairly quickly) be an American pissed off enough that they assassinate Biden. And you guys have far more of an arsenal available to you than we do.

Whereas up here, we don't have much of a history of assassinating the head honcho. And so Trudeau probably feels like he can act with some impunity when he goes to actively destroy Canada by forcing us to go along with his vision for the world, regardless of whether that vision is fiscally responsible, just / fair / moral, or in the actual interests of Canada. None of that matters as long as his vision is fulfilled.

I cannot wait for this guy to be gone.

In NOLA, it's definitely the wild Wild West here. Look at this BS. Who wants to come work for a police force when the mayor sits on the wrong side? All time 50 year low for number of officers on duty. It's a shame and until some of these thugs start getting met with a bullet it won't get any better.

Amen brother. Canada has a long road to recovery (well, so does the US, but Canada more so...)

And there's the best argument for the Second Amendment in the US. Leaving the ultimate power (civil uprising) in the hands of the people.
Which makes Herr Biden's and his ilk's comments about F-15's etc being used against the US populace just reprehensible.

On a personal note, as someone who divides his time between the US and Canada, 3 observations:

- rural / small town Canada is picturesque and people are friendly (the big towns and the suburbs are unfortunately hot garbage and not a representation of the country at large, yet they do control the votes...)
- politicians need to remember they are the servants of the people, and not their masters
- politicians need to live in fear of violent uprising to keep them honest (again, shout out to the 2nd Amendment)

Oh, and Trudeau is a combination of AIDS morphed into cancer.
He should've been a blowjob, even more ironic considering what a giant whore his mother was (and responsible for getting Keith Richards busted for drugs in Toronto)

One can make the argument that if a politician in power is not trying to build bridges and bring people together, and instead demonizing a section of them, then they are inadvertently destroying the country from within by fomenting discord...

Certain person(s)/people believe that we are incapable of fact checking and deriving information from multiple sources to verify the authenticity of the information. They believe that just because a source they don't fancy reports on an issue (…usually because other media outlets are purposely and strategically deciding not to report on [insert topic/global event here]), that the information itself is without merit and completely erroneous.

The "green" climate activist shitheads in Germany really fucked over the entire country by prostituting themselves to Russia for natural gas AND shutting down Germany's own nuclear reactors.

It's treasonous behaviour - removing self-dependence on energy.

Emergency alert telling LA residents, ‘Eastern North Pacific Ocean’ to evacuate immediately sent by mistake

It was too hot to go anywhere; emergency, or not.

Everybody said they were upset because heat was being racist towards impoverished communities. Blacks were deemed too stupid to know how to drink water and turn on air conditioning.

Yeah, politics now are a mess in both countries.

I do think Biden's student loan plan was a step in the right direction though. Luckily I don't have a dog in that fight, but it's clear the loan are predatory, and colleges have taken advantage of a lot of young folks. Both parties ultimately agree with that.

Next step is to get rid of the student loan program all together!!
