In his last admin he cut taxes, cut regulations, negotiated better trade deals, kept NK and Russia at bay, slowed the border crisis and I am sure I am missing some. In this admin, he's cutting the federal government spending which will slow inflation, he's exposing waste and fraud, he's restoring women's rights in sports, he's stopped the border crisis, he's freed hostages in Gaza, Russia and Venezuela, he's negotiated better cooperation from. Venezuela, Colombia, Canada and Mexico, he's slowing the fentanyl crisis, brought the military back to ita original purpose and I'm sure I've missed a few.3 points

Nothing lasts forever. Proclamations and wishful thinking will not stand the grinding touch of time and the entropy. Now not only a trivial observation but a factual reality in the pocket. The time for these changes is long overdue. There's no time or space for delays and procrastination. Canadian political system has to be updated and brought to the current best standard of responsible and functional democracy of the 21st century. 1. Proportional representation 2. Full transparency and accountability of governments 3. Effectiveness and efficiency standards in the public service 4. Ending the practice, tradition and system of bureaucratic entitlements and privileges. Without thoughtful, intelligent and resourceful ability to respond to the challenges of time, the writing is on the wall. There's nothing more to prove here: it's playing out right before our eyes.1 point

The other day, some guy identified as a professor of International Relations suggested we refuse Trump's appointed ambassador - whoever that is, to teach him a lesson, I guess. This is an example of that perplexing situation, where allegedly smart, educated 'experts' give really, astoundingly dumb advice. I'm not a professor of international relations but I know damned well that if we were to refuse his ambassador he would take it personally, probably kick ours out, and then take revenge in some way that would not harm an international relations professor but certainly would be harmful to Canada. Mark Carney is another of those 'experts' giving astoundingly dumb advice. Liz Truss, his last government boss, if you will, said his policies had been a disaster in the UK, and little wonder. Carney is a guy who has been captured by a dream, by an ideology that has become almost a religion to some. And in religious matters, you have faith and pay little attention to logic. His suggestion that big emitters would not pass the cost down is baffling from an economist. Clearly, they would. And not just steel makers, either. Everyone from concrete makers to car makers to oil producers to every kind of factory in the country would pass those costs on down to us. Those who can't would flee Canada for places like China, Mexico, and even the US, where they face lower taxes and cheaper energy (often coal). And Carney's solution to that? Why, he'll put tariffs on any country that doesn't have a proper emissions reduction program. Got that? He'll start a tariff war with the US, Mexico, China, India, and much of the rest of the world while making our costs higher and, not incidentally, doing his best to destroy our oil and gas industries. This leads to the question: Does Mark Carney not actually understand economics? Or business? Is he so engaged in his pointless, futile effort at tilting at windmills, at fighting a hopeless, pointless fight that can't accomplish anything that he's willing to heavily damage this country just to put his chin up and show everyone what a noble, virtuous guy he is?1 point

Well...this is simple to answer. 1. Explain how you figure Trump is enriching himself? 2. What's he doing for working Americans? a. Close the border so the flow of criminals and drugs is halted b. Seek out and deport or jail the criminal illegals in the USA c. Investigate government agencies and cut their bloated and wasteful budgets d. Halt the fighting in the Middle East e. Have Americans held as political prisoners, free to come home f. Begin negotiations to stop the Ukraine war g. Expose the relationship between the US Justice system and the MSM, so the public KNOWS what's been going on h. DRILL BABY DRILL! Thus begin to drag the economy out of this perpetual slow decent to bankruptcy i. Remove DEI and Tranny impositions on the public Not too shabby for less that 100 days...eh?1 point

Both USAID And The CIA Were Behind The Impeachment Of Trump in 2019 TLDR: USAID funded a fake news org, planted journalists and approved stories. A CIA analyst, loyal to Obama gave them a story to run then cited it in a whistleblower complaint to setup the first Trump impeachment. Why? Trump was looking at the money trail to Ukraine and trying to figure out what exactly was going on. USAID, swampy Dems and swampy Reps couldn't have that. So they launched a counter attack designed to stop Trump from looking into the money because he'd be too busy defending himself. And it never stopped.1 point

*sigh* One of the expected results of Trump's exposing the Democrats and their lawfare, is that those who believed all the lies now face a serious dilemma. Believe the facts being presented and admit their heros lied to them. Or refuse to believe the facts uncovered and attack the messenger. Now...while a lot of independents will likely find these revelations solidify the message that the Democrats lied and cheated, thus justifying their votes for Trump, the religious Libbies find they must destroy the message and the messengers. Unfortunately for them...it's too late. By the time Trump and his administration are done, the Democrats will be fully exposed and in complete ruin. Meh...this is cause for celebration.1 point

For any audience members that may not be sure as to what robosmith is referring to, I imagine it's a word in the title of an article from the mainstream media publication The Daily Mail that I quoted. The full title is "Estonian Foreign Ministry confirms authenticity of leaked phone call discussing how Kiev snipers who shot protesters were possibly hired by Ukraine's new leaders". My response is that that title is just the tip of the iceberg. Even the Daily Mail article itself suggests that far from just a possibility, it is in fact probably the truth. Once again quoting from said article: ** Leaked phone call suggests anti-government protesters hired the snipers We could all manufacture a 'leaked' phone call where two people say something which they both know is untrue, but it's also highly unlikely that snipers were used for 'crowd control" lol. Agreed. Who gave you the idea that these snipers were being employed for crowd control? As to why they were hired by anti-government protesters, that's something that the article from which that quote comes from doesn't even speculate on. That being said, another article I've brought up in the past reports on an Italian documentary wherein some men claim to have been some of the snipers themselves. These men explain the reasoning for their being hired. Quoting from that article: ** The interviews with three snipers of Georgian nationality, conducted by the Italian journalist Gian Micalessin and aired as a breathtaking documentary on Milan-based Canale 5 (Matrix program) last week, still have not paved its way to the international mainstream media. That is hardly surprising taking into account the bombshell evidence against the real perpetrators and organizers of the 2014 coup d’etat in Kiev, generally known as the “revolution of dignity“. The documentary features Alexander Revazishvili, Koba Nergadze and Zalogi Kvaratskhelia, Georgian military officers who were recruited to carry out a “special mission” in Kiev by Mamuka Mamulashvili, a close aid of Mikhail Saakashvili’s former defense minister Bacho Akhalaia. They claim that on Jan 15, 2014 they landed in Kiev equipped with fake documents and were transferred to Maidan. Having received 1000 USD each one and being promised to be paid 5000 USD after the “job is done”, they were tasked to prepare sniper positions inside the buildings of Hotel Ukraine and Conservatory, dominant over the Maidan Square. The facts they exposed afterwards, were shocking. Along with other snipers (some of them were Lithuanians) they were put under command of an American military operative Brian Christopher Boyenger (his Facebook page is here). The coordinating team also included Mamulashvili and infamous Segrey Pashinsky, who was detained by protesters on Feb 18, 2017 [the author must have meant 2014] with a sniper rifle in the boot of his car and later headed the first post-Maidan interim president administration of Ukraine. The weapons came on stage on February 18 and were distributed to the various Georgian and Lithuanian groups. “There were three or four weapons in each bag, there were Makarov guns, AKM guns, rifles, and a lot of cartridges.” – witnesses Nergadze. The following day, Mamulashvili and Pashinsky explained to snipers that they should shoot at the square and sow chaos. “When Mamulashvili arrived, I also asked him. Things are getting complicated, we have to start shooting – he replied that we cannot go to presidential elections. “But who to shoot?“ I asked. He replied that who and where it did not matter, you had to shoot somewhere so much to sow chaos.” “I listened to the screams,” recalls Revazishvili. “There were many dead and injured downstairs. My first and only thought was to leave in a hurry before they caught up with me. Otherwise, they would tear me apart.” Four years later, Revazishvili and his two companions report they have not yet received the promised 5000 USD bills as a payment and have decided to tell the truth about those who “used and abandoned” them. The full documentary with English subtitles is available below (in two parts): ** Unfortunately, the documentary is no longer available on youtube, but I saw parts of it when it was still up. I also found a non youtube version on the wayback archived version of the original article. This wayback version can be seen here: https://web.archive.org/web/20230130070306/https://orientalreview.org/2017/11/23/cheap-dignity-of-the-ukrainian-revolution/1 point

Such a salient point. I think the question is fine. It's not the first time I've seen the issue of the Soviet Union no longer existing as a reason for reneging on any deals made when it was around. I just think that people who bring this up don't follow the logic of thinking that it's fine to break any deals with the Soviet Union because it doesn't exist anymore. I think that most would agree that Russia was always the main part of the Soviet Union and to simply renege on any deals because Russia is missing parts of the Soviet Union and was in a bit of a tailspin immediately after the breakup is a bit like punching a guy when he's down, maybe because he got divorced and is no longer the Soviet Couple. I mean sure, you can do it, but I think we can agree that the guy will remember what his new buddy did when he was down. It still comes from a position of "Our word means sh1t." The only way to truly judge a person or group is by what they do when they're in a position of power, and apparently we're assh0les. That only works for so long if you're intent on making the rest of the world mistrust/hate you. Eventually there's a change in the balance of power. I think a few issues are being brought up here and it would be good to separate them. First, I agree that the United States' word, even in agreement form, is not exactly stellar: https://qz.com/1273510/all-the-international-agreements-the-us-has-broken-before-the-iran-deal Second, I also agree that influencing countries by fear is the wrong way to go about things. However, the issue that led to this conversation is whether verbal agreements made to the Soviet Union should matter if the Soviet Union no longer exists. This is why I made the analogy of Russia basically being like a man who'd recently gotten divorced, with the idea being that any promises made to the Soviet couple would be moot because Russia's now on their own. An analogy I made elsewhere is that it'd be like any deals made to the U.S. would be moot if one or more U.S. states decided to become independent. It's just a bad idea, especially if the somewhat reduced superpower takes the breaking of the deal badly, which Russia definitely did. Perhaps the most important thing though, is that the U.S. could have promised to stop expanding NATO prior to Russia's war in Ukraine and that may well have gotten Russia to not start its war in Ukraine. The U.S. turned down what might have been its final chance at averting war that way in December 2021. Putin mentioned this in the speech he gave on the day he started his military operation in Ukraine, which he now calls a war. Quoting: ** As for our country, after the disintegration of the USSR, given the entire unprecedented openness of the new, modern Russia, its readiness to work honestly with the United States and other Western partners, and its practically unilateral disarmament, they immediately tried to put the final squeeze on us, finish us off, and utterly destroy us. This is how it was in the 1990s and the early 2000s, when the so-called collective West was actively supporting separatism and gangs of mercenaries in southern Russia. What victims, what losses we had to sustain and what trials we had to go through at that time before we broke the back of international terrorism in the Caucasus! We remember this and will never forget. Properly speaking, the attempts to use us in their own interests never ceased until quite recently: they sought to destroy our traditional values and force on us their false values that would erode us, our people from within, the attitudes they have been aggressively imposing on their countries, attitudes that are directly leading to degradation and degeneration, because they are contrary to human nature. This is not going to happen. No one has ever succeeded in doing this, nor will they succeed now. Despite all that, in December 2021, we made yet another attempt to reach agreement with the United States and its allies on the principles of European security and NATO’s non-expansion. Our efforts were in vain. The United States has not changed its position. It does not believe it necessary to agree with Russia on a matter that is critical for us. The United States is pursuing its own objectives, while neglecting our interests. ** Putin then goes on to explain what would happen if Russia were to just sit idly by while western Ukraine killed ethnic Russians and Russian speakers in Ukraine: ** Of course, this situation begs a question: what next, what are we to expect? If history is any guide, we know that in 1940 and early 1941 the Soviet Union went to great lengths to prevent war or at least delay its outbreak. To this end, the USSR sought not to provoke the potential aggressor until the very end by refraining or postponing the most urgent and obvious preparations it had to make to defend itself from an imminent attack. When it finally acted, it was too late. As a result, the country was not prepared to counter the invasion by Nazi Germany, which attacked our Motherland on June 22, 1941, without declaring war. The country stopped the enemy and went on to defeat it, but this came at a tremendous cost. The attempt to appease the aggressor ahead of the Great Patriotic War proved to be a mistake which came at a high cost for our people. In the first months after the hostilities broke out, we lost vast territories of strategic importance, as well as millions of lives. We will not make this mistake the second time. We have no right to do so. Those who aspire to global dominance have publicly designated Russia as their enemy. They did so with impunity. Make no mistake, they had no reason to act this way. It is true that they have considerable financial, scientific, technological, and military capabilities. We are aware of this and have an objective view of the economic threats we have been hearing, just as our ability to counter this brash and never-ending blackmail. Let me reiterate that we have no illusions in this regard and are extremely realistic in our assessments. As for military affairs, even after the dissolution of the USSR and losing a considerable part of its capabilities, today’s Russia remains one of the most powerful nuclear states. Moreover, it has a certain advantage in several cutting-edge weapons. In this context, there should be no doubt for anyone that any potential aggressor will face defeat and ominous consequences should it directly attack our country. At the same time, technology, including in the defence sector, is changing rapidly. One day there is one leader, and tomorrow another, but a military presence in territories bordering on Russia, if we permit it to go ahead, will stay for decades to come or maybe forever, creating an ever mounting and totally unacceptable threat for Russia. Even now, with NATO’s eastward expansion the situation for Russia has been becoming worse and more dangerous by the year. Moreover, these past days NATO leadership has been blunt in its statements that they need to accelerate and step up efforts to bring the alliance’s infrastructure closer to Russia’s borders. In other words, they have been toughening their position. We cannot stay idle and passively observe these developments. This would be an absolutely irresponsible thing to do for us. Any further expansion of the North Atlantic alliance’s infrastructure or the ongoing efforts to gain a military foothold of the Ukrainian territory are unacceptable for us. Of course, the question is not about NATO itself. It merely serves as a tool of US foreign policy. The problem is that in territories adjacent to Russia, which I have to note is our historical land, a hostile “anti-Russia” is taking shape. Fully controlled from the outside, it is doing everything to attract NATO armed forces and obtain cutting-edge weapons. For the United States and its allies, it is a policy of containing Russia, with obvious geopolitical dividends. For our country, it is a matter of life and death, a matter of our historical future as a nation. This is not an exaggeration; this is a fact. It is not only a very real threat to our interests but to the very existence of our state and to its sovereignty. It is the red line which we have spoken about on numerous occasions. They have crossed it. This brings me to the situation in Donbass. We can see that the forces that staged the coup in Ukraine in 2014 have seized power, are keeping it with the help of ornamental election procedures and have abandoned the path of a peaceful conflict settlement. For eight years, for eight endless years we have been doing everything possible to settle the situation by peaceful political means. Everything was in vain. As I said in my previous address, you cannot look without compassion at what is happening there. It became impossible to tolerate it. We had to stop that atrocity, that genocide of the millions of people who live there and who pinned their hopes on Russia, on all of us. It is their aspirations, the feelings and pain of these people that were the main motivating force behind our decision to recognise the independence of the Donbass people’s republics. I would like to additionally emphasise the following. Focused on their own goals, the leading NATO countries are supporting the far-right nationalists and neo-Nazis in Ukraine, those who will never forgive the people of Crimea and Sevastopol for freely making a choice to reunite with Russia. They will undoubtedly try to bring war to Crimea just as they have done in Donbass, to kill innocent people just as members of the punitive units of Ukrainian nationalists and Hitler’s accomplices did during the Great Patriotic War. They have also openly laid claim to several other Russian regions. If we look at the sequence of events and the incoming reports, the showdown between Russia and these forces cannot be avoided. It is only a matter of time. They are getting ready and waiting for the right moment. Moreover, they went as far as aspire to acquire nuclear weapons. We will not let this happen. I have already said that Russia accepted the new geopolitical reality after the dissolution of the USSR. We have been treating all new post-Soviet states with respect and will continue to act this way. We respect and will respect their sovereignty, as proven by the assistance we provided to Kazakhstan when it faced tragic events and a challenge in terms of its statehood and integrity. However, Russia cannot feel safe, develop, and exist while facing a permanent threat from the territory of today’s Ukraine. **1 point

And vice versa. This has gone on throughout history. The more you swing the pendulum one way the more it's going to swing back the other way. The backlash is all ready starting in the states and it won't be over quickly. The democrats are going to learn that the fastest way to stay out of office is to make this crap a priority and they're going to set it aside and focus on other things. The republicans will continue to hunt the woke into Oblivion. What you on the left don't understand is that you are such crappy human beings that in the end regular people will always recoil from you and you cannot help yourselves, you constantly go overboard and turn into the worst people in history in the name of "Progress" That always turns out to be regressive in the end. All of history's favorite bad guys used the line. Every time the left brings this crap up and talks about the good of the community and progress it ends in disaster Oh look, when he knows that the left is losing an argument he has homosexual fantasies.

You don't seem to know the truth. The Liberal government had absolutely no choice but to take over the Trans Mountain Pipeline and get it finished because it is the only pipeline to tidewater from Alberta. The company pulled out because of the huge costs and endless opposition to it's expansion by the BC NDP, environmentalists, and FNs. Letting it die would have really hurt Canada and Alberta. The Liberals had absolutely no choice. Meanwhile the Liberals killed the Northern Gateway Pipeline and the Energy East pipeline projects on the drawing paper. They brought in Bill C69 to ban tankers from the B.C. north coast. They basically killed any new pipelines and have been working to hamper the growth of the energy industry and stopped export of natural gas to Europe.1 point
