If they actually release the complete unredacted files, I'm all for it.

Don't worry robo you will still be able to post here just like a dictater. You can use this......

Seriously though, that was a really tight game. Could have gone either way. Binnington made an amazing save on Brady. That was a good tournament. Far better and more emotional than the all-star game. I kinda miss Russia at these international things though.

Thats one hell of a statement because Justin has spent more than any other PM in history, including our war years....Not sure where the money is coming from, maybe the budget will balance itself but this guy is a banker he should have a plan right, only three ways to spend new money, cut some place, or raise taxes, or just add it to our national debt like justin did...It seems like the liberals will just keep printing money until the bank is broke....so much for inflation control, sound monetary policies, for which bankers are known for....its spend like a drunken sailor... I'm starting to think this is the guy we need in charge, to finish off where Justin left us...Broke... Matthew Lau: Carney's spending plan would put even Trudeau to shame

Mark Carney british jobs, as explain by British PM at the time, she does not paint a very good picture....infact he is a disaster for the UK....This is the guy we want running our country...This is only going to tighten up liberals voters, he is the new god great hair , but no socks....Brits giving us a warning....

You love government overreach and authoritarianism, robomarx, so I don't see why you're crying.

There will never be any Canadian unity as long as Quebec is involved. Quebec and their horde of parasitic 'elites' . . . and the Ontario wankers that cater to them with other provinces tax/transfer/equalization $$'s

Canada's Bottom?

I"m asking google to change it to the 'united states of Canada". I was going to go with "lower canada" but didn't just in case mexico joins, i mean what would we call them then? Basement Canada? Slightly lower than lower Canada? Bottom Canada?

Please provide evidence that you are never deceived. Sweetie

Yes. I did. Three times. Once in the first article and two more times in replies. Rule #2 wasn't working so he went to rule #3. Someone is getting called Hitler here soon.

Some Republicans are speaking out, but without actually criticizing Trump “Make no mistake about it: That invasion was the responsibility of one human being on the face of this planet. It was Vladimir Putin,” Sen. Thom Tillis (R-North Carolina) said, referring to the Russian president. Tillis also said there is no “equivalency” between Putin and Zelensky. “Russia is the aggressor; there’s no question about that,” said Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-South Dakota). “[Trump] can speak for himself, but in my view there is no question who started the war.” “When it comes to blame for the Russian invasion of Ukraine, I blame Putin above all others,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) posted on X. About the only one to address Trump head-on was Sen. John Neely Kennedy (R-Louisiana). “Here’s where I disagree with the White House,” Kennedy said, adding: “I think Vladimir Putin started the war. I also believe, through bitter experience, that Vladimir Putin is a gangster. He’s a gangster with a black heart. He makes Jeffrey Dahmer look like Mother Teresa. He has Stalin’s taste for blood.” Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) said, “I would certainly never refer to President Zelensky as a dictator,” Sen. Mike Rounds (R-South Dakota) called Zelensky the “duly elected” president of Ukraine. Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) said she disagreed with that characterization. “I think he’s factually wrong on those points,” Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-North Dakota) told NOTUS, adding that Trump might have certain motives for this misinformation. “As a negotiator he’s always positioning and he’s in a negotiating mood these days.” Perhaps the most robust rebuke came from a member of the House, Rep. Don Bacon (R-Nebraska), who ticked through Trump’s claims and picked them apart them one by one in an X post. “Putin started this war,” Bacon said. “Putin committed war crimes. Putin is the dictator who murdered his opponents. The EU nations have contributed more to Ukraine. Zelensky polls over 50%. Ukraine wants to be part of the West, Putin hates the West. I don’t accept George Orwell’s doublethink.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/02/19/republicans-rebuke-trump-ukraine-gently/

We might not be in this tariff mess if Trudeau had resigned before Trump took office. Trudeau hung on for the sake of vanity. Canadians are paying the price. Having said that, while Trump may have a special loathing for Justin, the tariff threat is directed at multiple countries. Trump should consider the following as he seeks to apply might is right force to make gains for America in a zero-sum game: "You can mandate behavioral changes in authoritarian, command- and-control cultures. People will behave in prescribed ways, but their behavior will be compliance behavior, in response to an external source of authority. Compliance will last only as long as force is applied. And force most often fuels resistance and reinforces the attitudes and beliefs that it seeks to change." —Linda Ellinor and Glenna Gerard (1998, p. 122)

This should be good. Didn't the left say Trump was good buddies with Epstein? This just seems like a weird thing to do to a guy you like.

So tens of thousands of people died in the Ukraine war. Cities were destroyed. It ramped up to the point where missiles were being fired into Russia and Kiev, and North Korean soldiers joined the war. In that whole time, Biden never even talked about peace. The deaths apparently meant nothing to him. In that whole time, Biden's hundreds of billions of dollars couldn't stop Russia's progress across southern Ukraine. The war of attrition was being lost day by day. Biden absolutely had the power to end this war years ago, with tens of thousands less deaths and no territory lost Trump inherited a war with tens of thousands of deaths, tens of thousands of sq km or Ukrainian territory lost leftists are mad that Trump can't magically move Ukraine's borders back to where they were, but they're not mad at Biden. This is madness. WHAT DID UKRAINE GAIN FROM THIS WAR?????? WHY DID BIDEN LET IT HAPPEN??? WHY DIDN'T BIDEN END IT SOONER????

Still too many money grubbers in this government - it's vomit inducing. https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/senate-gop-budget/2025/02/21/id/1199928/

Yes he did, and that poor 7-Eleven employee who man's the porn rack was emotionally traumatized and will never be the same

Why would Trump even care if he's mentioned in these documents at this point? The Supreme court has made him immune from all prosecution. He'd probably just brag about how alpha he is that he's able to sleep with minors and get away with it.

This is your dumb argument being applied here. I don't care if you label it as a protesting action, that doesn't change my argument. OK, this doesn't change anything. You were trying to say his refusing orders was the issue... no, his being there was the issue, calling it silently praying or protesting, same difference, the issue was his silently praying. The fact that it is illegal is not in contention here, that is the whole point of the discussion, to point out how absurd that is. Yes, I have. Its a violation of basic free speech principles just because you don't want someone to get their feelings hurt. I already pointed out several times now, that if your position here is that speech should be curtailed for peoples feelings, there is almost no limit to what you make illegal as long as the majority has the power to do it, so be it. And once again, as you keep ignoring, it is more than just standing near the clinic, it is that peoples whose homes are too close were also threatened with similar law, where they can't do anything on their own property or in their own homes here.

We don't have to imagine it we remember it. Here used that to tell one lie in English and another lie in french to Quebec. It was not a good thing

Your TROLLING is going to put you on my ignore list. You're not ever clever.

The whole point is the make it NOT WORTH IT to BULLYING DICTATORS. Xi is watching and will march into Taiwan and probably destroy the vast majority of their super high tech chip manufacturing, thus plunging the entire world into a major depression.

Mail in voting is rather less secure than in person voting. More room for cheating.

Why would we assume she relied on his advice? Carney's tenure as the governor of BoE was spent arguing against most of the UK government's economic policy, especially Brexit (which Truss supported). The reality is that Truss is a near-universal laughingstock with zero credibility, who resigned from the PM's office within 45 days after tabling one of the dumbest budgets the UK had ever seen. Any criticism she has to offer for anyone on economic policy is worth a cat's wet fart.

A great reminder that now I can go back to hating Brad Marchand.

You will have to wait until late spring, still frozen solid.

Lmao...oh, so if we just demand it, it'll happen eh? Why didn't Joe do that? Well, we know why. A demand will do nothing. Hell, the left has been demanding it from the start. Nope, the only way to make Russia leave is to make Russia leave. F35s, Blackhawk, Tanks, troops, the whole 9 yards. Is that peace? No. What Russia did was awful. The question is, how much are we willing to sacrifice to impose our will? Are you going to go fight them? Are you willing to send your family members ro go fight them? Are you willing to risk WWIII and/or nuclear war? I will never say that negotiating an end is the perfect solution. It might be the best solution we have though. I definitely won't decry a deal that hasn't been made either.

They are certainly evidence of something.

I wonder why he's so scared?

Squirm? You're a certified dolt. No, Joe Biden is not responsible for Putin's aggression. And he was a staunch ally of the democratic underdogs in this fight. The super sub narrative that Putin was "forced" to invade a sovereign neighbor because that neighbor was taking steps to avoid being invaded is just asinine. I'm the product of a country whose entire identity is (or was) based on the virtue of self determination by a free people--freedom hard won in fire and blood to throw off an oppressor. Of course we understand why Ukraine was fighting. The fact that the struggle to be free is beyond your comprehension is honestly just sad. You fundamentally can't understand someone like Patrick Henry. You must be a hoot on movie night. "I don't understand why Andy fought the Sisters. He should have saved himself the trouble and taken it--or maybe negotiated for just the tip!" "Remember in Braveheart how the villain Wallace forced poor King Edward to attack? Why are they even fighting." The people of Ukraine know what it is to live without freedom, and now that they have it, they aren't going back without a flight. You may be a sniveling farking worm, but the world will make more sense if you accept that other people have values so dearly held that they will fight to preserve them.

How would you know if you've been deceived? In fact, how do you know you aren't dreaming all of this? Maybe you have dementia and all this never happened.

Amen. As to your questions: 1- Nothing but a lucrative gravy train for certain elites in Ukraine. 2- Biden was in on the gravy train. 3- To keep the gravy train going. A good article on these points was published on infobrics on February 3rd: Even with Western aid drying up, corruption continues to flourish in Ukraine | Infobrics It may not be perfect [I snipped a paragraph that didn't make sense to me], but I think it gets most of the story right. Quoting from it: ** The deep-rooted corruption in Ukraine began to surface after it became clear that the Kiev regime was losing the war. Although the West used a corrupt Ukraine to attack and weaken Russia, the Westerners themselves now look for an alibi for the defeat and to distance themselves from their proxy after ignoring the total corruption of the Kiev regime due to the ambitions of certain leaders to inflict as much damage as possible on Russia. Cracks have begun to appear in the relations between the allies due to corruption, and Ukraine accuses its Western partners of using corruption accusations as an excuse not to admit the country to NATO and the EU. Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe today, but the West continued to support Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky uncritically until Donald Trump raised the issue due to then-US President Joe Biden sending American taxpayers’ money to Ukraine. It was then discovered that the Kiev regime was giving part of that money to Hunter Biden, the son of Joe Biden. Hunter Biden, in turn, sent that money to his father, who, at the end of his term, issued a decree on Hunter’s preventive pardon. Trump is now conducting a “special financial operation,” which will include both the Pentagon and Ukraine, to determine where the money went. For this reason, Trump has suspended the US aid program to Ukraine for 90 days, suggesting that there is evidence of financial mismanagement and theft of US taxpayer money. Biden’s last decrees also indicate corruption related to Ukraine. Besides Hunter, Joe Biden issued preventive pardons for his brothers and their wives, as well as for his sister and her husband. It was not clear why and for what reason. However, there was no information about the existence of any criminal offenses and so on. In Kiev, the main culprit behind these corruption schemes is Zelensky, who officially has a monthly salary of 28,000 hryvnias, about $664. Undoubtedly, he has other income because he bought a house for his parents and in-laws, a yacht, and more. According to media reports, Zelensky purchased a villa in Italy and acquired an estate in Britain—the former residence of King Charles and Princess Diana—while Zelensky’s wife has an apartment in London. In addition, the couple owns real estate in Cyprus and Miami. This, according to some sources, is not a complete list. An Egyptian journalist who wrote about the purchase of the Italian villa in the name of Zelensky’s mother-in-law, worth almost $5 million, was found dead under unclear circumstances. As for the castle in the UK, these allegations are made by Ukrainian sources and still need to be verified. However, there is nothing secret that does not become public, and the Trump administration is certainly monitoring the movement of money. Friends, godfathers, and relatives of Ukrainian officials are also getting rich quickly because property is being purchased in their names. Corruption in Ukraine is flourishing at all levels, and Ukrainian officials are issuing directives to journalists not to write about it until the war is over because it is bad for the country, as it may be left without Western aid. Sooner or later, everything will come to light. The Trump administration will likely have all the information and initiate criminal proceedings by now. It is no coincidence that Zelensky is now saying that Ukraine does not have the strength to capture the lost territories. This statement seems to indicate a radical change in Kiev’s position and a renunciation of unrealistic goals to “return to the 1991 borders.” The reason for this is that Western aid is drying up. [snip] Zelensky was a puppet managed by the West and was under the control of British intelligence. This is evidenced by the fact that in the spring of 2022, Zelensky annulled the Istanbul Peace Accords on the directive of then-British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, even though he had a chance to stop the war that would have prevented Ukraine from losing more territory and preserved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. However, he instead decided to continue to fight on the promise that billions of dollars would flow endlessly, a prospect that Zelensky could not resist as an opportunity to further enrich himself and those closest to him. **

Americans are American but we do not get along. And sticking your head in the sand is no way to deal with a crisis. That's how Justin Trudeau got us into this mess

So you think Trump should have just sent another $60B in weapons then. Is that it? Would another $60B do the trick? Just regain all that lost territory? If that's what you think he shoulda done, just say it. Say: "Trump was wrong to demand peace, he should have kept the war going, like Biden would have." Is that so hard? We, as humans, need to understand that war is a last resort. Biden should have tried to do something, anything, to avoid that war, and failing that, he should have at least tried to get peace. Russia isn't going to f around until America gets another weakling like Biden in the WH. Ukraine is out of soldiers. The Ukrainian people have no more stomach for war. They are having more desertions this winter than at any other time in the war, and now they're like a horse that smells the barn because Trump said he would bring peace and that's all the people care about now. Ukraine can say that they won their independence, Russia can say that they gained territory, Russia can say that they staved off NATO in Ukraine, and all of the people who are still alive get to keep on living. As long as they all feel like they won something, who cares who's right about any of that? The f'ing war is over. Let them all crow. Yay for everyone. That war was so worth it 👎

I couldn't pick two, but policy is definitely the project 2025 playbook (behind the scenes operatives) while Musk is serving his own interests. Trump does not read or understand policy in the slightest. He couldn't even tell you what these agencies and actions do.

Just your opinion that you are not decieved

You must have just returned from being abroad again. There's been a few changes.

Just because something starts or happens during your time in office.. does not mean that you caused it.

When the US defends a client state and then suddenly reverses course, treats them like an enemy, and sides with their invader--obviously other allies and client states will then feel less secure. In this case the client state was literally invaded by Russia attempting to expand their empire. It's the whole point of NATO originally to be a bulwark against Russian imperialism. So our nation's sudden disinterest in doing that is seen as a portent of things to come. With Russias military industry picking up and trump team saying the US will now have a backseat role in NATO, they now have every incentive to strike elsewhere sooner rather than later.

Lol what?

Lol... 'You guys didn't like Hilary.' No sh1t Sherlock! Nobody likes Hilary. Not even ol' Slick-Willy.

You said that, not me. I'm not making a case for or against him, I'm just not making shit up. Do you think Bank of Canada governors were responsible for Trudeau's and Freeland's economic policies? Have either of them ever claimed that? Truss is blaming the Bank of England governor for her, Cameron's and Boris's policies.

Virtually all of that is untrue, but at this point the NDP are desperate to believe that the work has some sort of relevance left in Canada. It doesn't

Musk is demolishing all the safeguards and oversights from food to finance and the Cult still thinks a group of billionaires are working in the average joe"s interests. It does take a spectacular level of stupidity. What did they find? You blindly accept Musk's claims with nothing to back them up.

😂 So they say. They haven't earned trust, yet, to get broad acceptance of their claims. Meanwhile, Trump's dirty charity was dissolved by a COURT. 😂

Liz Truss? That train wreck of a PM? Shortest-serving UK prime minister. Of course she's looking for a scapegoat!

I have a son with autism.. This bullying that you speak of must be something that you cherry pick from the internet. As for answers, blaming meds that one takes at minimum 8 years after being born and thinking that explains the condition... that is simply special. So you admit to viewing propaganda as objective fact that can be trusted.. That tells me a lot about you. In short, you seek affirmation not information.

Its a good thing that you are not in a role that affects anyone's well being. What is vile is that you spout off and have no concrete evidence. If you were really that smart.. you would know that correlation is not the same as causality.
