.............. yeah, The Gulf war has proven it is not strategic. 😁

The majority agree that Trump utilizes a populist style of politics. Those that are attracted to this style are those that the political, economic and cultural elites are corrupt. This group also is identified as those experiencing fear, instability or anger – the populist promises clarity and CONtrol. Group identity is extremely important – a feeling that their, ‘group’ is losing control. The 'group' includes racial, cultural, religious ……. or the biggie, national – cornerstone of fascism. Likely fair to say that they subscribe to conspiracy theories and a distrust of institutions, which the populist employes to dismantle or undermine same. Populism resonates with people that believe the system is rigged. A lost election is always rigged.

If we can’t have it, no one can.

That was actually debunked that he had a Nazi and you know who we are talking about. The Communist who whacks off in port a potties.

You labeled wrong, pal. You labeled wrong because you're always wrong. Wrong. NAZI's were left, just like the commies - it was a fight between the commies and the NAZI's for supremacy of the Left. You a$$holes won that battle but you lost the World War. America is what matters here, not Ukraine, not Iran, not even BLM. It's America first, ALWAYS. You lose, Juan. Now get your a$$ back to Mexico where it belongs.

It's entertaining that you draw this as a meaningful distinction. 🤣

............... is developing a larger share of a shrinking market, victory?

Indeed. But ...................Saudi Arabia, a cornerstone of the original agreement, no longer exclusively accepts US dollars for its oil sales. The Iran-US war could have a profound effect. The Gulf region security architecture rested on a traditional oil-for-security arrangement - this arrangement was maintained by a network of US military bases and hardware. For decades (Petrodollar) the Gulf's economic model thrived on a perception of stability. China's economic footprint has exploded in the Gulf. China's strategy is to stand out as the logical partner in the Gulf region for negotiating stability amongst the Gulf states. Trump has been an absolute disaster in this respect. '......... blow up Oman' / Trump......... WTF!

It should be mentioned (obvious) that impeachment no longer carries the political embarrassment it once did. It has become more of a partisan weapon ........ and that is how the public today perceives it. It's basically not worth the squeeze. The last time the Senate voted 2/3 majority was about 65 years ago. ........ so if removal is the objective? Forget it! If the Dem's threaten impeachment before the Midterms, their strategy is about as fk'd as the 'Charge of the Light Brigade"

It still is; we're simply modifying the plan. Removing Russian and Middle Eastern oil production from the equation actually increases reliance on American output. The broader strategy was to pursue green energy domestically — cutting demand at home while ramping up oil production for export — thereby reinforcing dependence on the petrodollar. Stable genius at work.

The unqualified boss paramount put in charge to please Trump. So much for konservatives pretending they believe in freedom of speech

What a joke. Little tax credits did not incentivize home owners to suddenly spend thousands of dollars on unneeded home renovations and home renovations didn’t reduce GHG. THE NUMBERS DON’T LIE BUT YOU DO CHAT GPT: Here’s a clear Harper vs Trudeau (emissions) comparison using Canada’s actual national greenhouse gas trend. 🇨🇦 Canada GHG Emissions: Harper vs Trudeau 🟦 Under Stephen Harper (2006–2015) Stephen Harper 📊 Overall result Emissions: roughly flat to slightly down Change (approx): small decrease (~0–3%) over full period Pattern: plateau with ups and downs 🔍 Key drivers ⛽ Oil sands expansion (major upward pressure) 📉 2008–09 recession (temporary drop) 🏭 Efficiency gains partially offset growth elsewhere 🧠 Bottom line Emissions were stable, not structurally declining 🟩 Under Justin Trudeau (2015–present, to ~2024/25 trend) Justin Trudeau 📊 Overall result Emissions: modest decline overall, but not linear Change (2015 → latest available years): ~7–10% decrease from 2005 baseline range; smaller from 2015 baseline (~5–8% depending on year) 🔍 Key drivers ⚡ Coal phase-out in electricity (major structural reduction) 💡 Increased renewables (wind/solar/hydro stability) 🚗 Transport emissions still high (hard to reduce sector) ⛽ Oil & gas emissions still a major upward pressure 📉 Notable disruption 2020 COVID drop (temporary sharp reduction) Partial rebound after economic recovery 🧠 Bottom line Emissions show a real downward trend, but slower than climate targets require 🧠 The simplest interpretation Harper era: emissions = “plateau with oil sands growth offsetting gains” Trudeau era: emissions = “slow downward slope, driven mostly by electricity sector changes” ⚖️ Key reality most people miss Even under Trudeau: Canada is still above 2005 levels in many recent years depending on accounting method Most reductions come from power generation, not oil & gas So: The difference is not “down vs up” — it’s flat (Harper) vs slowly declining (Trudeau)

Canada adds 87,800 jobs, jobless rate down to 6.6%, beating May estimates OTTAWA, June 5 (Reuters) - Canada's economy added 87,800 jobs and the unemployment rate fell back to 6.6% ‌in May, data showed on Friday, defying widespread expectations and showing signs of some resilience despite signs of softer economic growth. This is the first month this year of job gains and helped wipe off almost 80% of all job losses posted since the year began. The last time the economy added a significant number of jobs was October last year, Statistics Canada said. The Reuters Inside Track newsletter is your essential guide during the World Cup.Sign up here. Analysts polled by Reuters had forecast the unemployment rate ⁠to hold at the six-month high level reached in April at 6.9% and had predicted net additions of 10,000 jobs in May. Canada's economy has weathered an onslaught of U.S. tariffs and trade uncertainty for more than 12 months, hitting some crucial sectors very hard and leading to job losses. It has also sucked hiring momentum and investments out from the broader economy. Its economy hit a technical recession - two consecutive quarters of economic contraction - at the end of the first quarter on an annualized basis. But economists have been divided on whether Canada was actually in recession as there have been no widespread job losses and some sectors have shown healthy growth. Statistics Canada said employment increased ‌in several ⁠industries such as construction which added a net of 26,800 jobs, information, culture and recreation which saw an addition of 19,300 jobs, transportation and warehousing which saw gains of 18,700 jobs and accommodation and food services which grew by 17,000 jobs. The wholesale and retail trade sector, which accounts for almost 14% of the total employed work force, posted job decline of 35,000 positions ⁠in May. Economists have said that the upcoming football World Cup, partly hosted by Canada, will also likely boost jobs in the months of June and July across some sectors. The job additions was fully concentrated in full-time jobs which saw a net addition of ⁠154,000 in May, reversing almost all of the first four months of net job losses in full-time work, StatsCan said, and added part-time employment fell by 66,200 in the month. Average hourly wages of permanent employees, a metric ⁠closely tracked by the Bank of Canada to gauge the rise in inflation expectations, grew 3.2% in May, a sharp decline from the 4.8% posted in April. The unemployment rate for youth declined 0.9 percentage points to 13.4%, StatsCan said, adding this was the first decline since January. https://www.reuters.com/business/world-at-work/canada-adds-87800-jobs-jobless-rate-down-66-beating-may-estimates-2026-06-05/

Indeed, the dollar makes up 58 percent of foreign exchange reserves . far ahead of the euro at 21 or the yen at 6, pound at 5 Anyone would applaud how strategically it was done, Strategic planning is needed to retain the dollar as #1. currency reserve. The 'Petroleum Agreement' over 50 years ago was absolute genius.

LMAO try telling that to Colbert or Kimmel. Konservative Kancel Kulture is so easily offended by anyone who makes a joke or negative comment about Trump or challenges his false narratives.

LMAO WRONG Once again your ABSOLUTE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE and WILLINGNESS TO TO SHAMELESSLY BULLSHIT on topics YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT is on full display. Seriously take a high school history class or something. The expression “bread and circuses” exists for a reason

lol .............. one atta(boy?) for trying ....... but failing. 🤪

No you are the one who said PP had “magic” ideas not me I am the one who told YOU there is no such thing as magic Thy didn’t steal any ideas It was the conservatives who stole from the Liberals You will recall it was the conservatives platform that came out weeks AFTER the liberals once they realized their negative campaign of “Just like Justin” wasn’t working and they needed to actually come up with some real ideas and it was THEY who ripped off the liberals. Yes Carney ended or adjusted some unpopular/ unsuccessful Trudeau policies but that is not “stealing” conservative ideas The May numbers are out and your claims have been debunked.

Pete Hegseth?

The rather puerile rhetoric snugly fits YOUR demeanor too, dude? 😁 Imitation is the highest form of flattery tho.

Whoa!!! The confux clone arsehole LOSER speaks...or tries to LOL Does confux fart so you can get a word out???

World currency reserve. Means we can print Monopoly money. Speculation

So still waiting for your pardon?

The rather puerile rhetoric snugly fits your demeanor. So how much did you and Flybaby pay for the room?

I see you like your periods.
