Inaccurate and dishonest depiction of those who seek a 2 state solution and end to Israel’s continued illegal settlements

That’s not true, the FACT is that the last time a peace was made, hardline right wing Israelis assassinated their Prime Minister and replaced his government with an aggressive anti-peace government that has been in near- constant control ever since. And let’s get back to the OP: this illegal land grab in the west bank and settler terrorism has NOTHING to do with peace or security. In fact, it worsens chances for both and is outright theft. Unsurprisingly none of the Israel apologists in this thread will address it directly except to say they hope Israel ethnically cleanses the region of Palestinians because “they deserve it” which is an argument with no moral or legal grounding.

USA is a democracy and a republic, period. At least for now.

Some of the most dangerous things about Trump are the horrible people he surrounds himself with. Who knows how many of these whackos will end up in his administration. He will appoint many unpleasant goons, who will each appoint many unpleasant goons of their own in turn. His bio sounds like he has good shot at a government job unothe Trump administration: A former Green Beret and military intelligence officer, a lawyer, and a failed Virginia US Senate candidate, Raiklin also calls himself the “Deep State Marauder.” He’s a colleague of former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn and has been traveling the country with him this year as part of Flynn’s ReAwaken American tour. … Raiklin was involved with Flynn’s efforts to help overturn the results of the 2020 election. He is the author of the “Operation Pence Card” memo, which proposed that Vice President Mike Pence could block certification of the election results on January 6. Raiklin’s name came up repeatedlyduring the House committee investigation of January 6, but he was never subpoenaed. For the past six months or so, Raiklin has been circulating an enemies list of about 350 people whom he believes should be prosecuted for treason. The list, which has unnerved many democracy advocates, includes former Vice President Mike Pence, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, journalists, witnesses from Trump’s impeachment hearings, Capitol police officers, and more. …. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/07/i-found-ivan-raiklin-the-secretary-of-retribution-at-the-republican-convention/#:~:text=I found the “Secretary of Retribution” on Tuesday%2C sitting,of former President Donald Trump.

Most of the world’s democracies are republics and most of the world’s republics are democracies. Constitutional monarchy democracies like Canada and UK are in the minority. A country can be both a democracy and a republic. Constitutional democracy and representative democracy are both forms of democracy. The mythical kind of democracy where every citizen votes on laws and bills doesn’t exist and couldn’t possibly function in any population of significant size. Therefore it’s not correct to use that as the one and only definition of democracy and them say the US is not a democracy. Again, this argument only started appearing relatively recently a d it was one Russian troll farms liked to spread to undermine democracy

What does retribution look like? Trump’s wannabe “Secretary or Retribution” spells it out: A “target list” with hundreds of Trump critics, politicians and journalists to be arrested by deputized mobs of ex-military right wing extremists during “live streamed swat raids,” public show trials, etc. Its pure nazi jerkoff material in every sense Trump Ally Exposed for Horrific Hit List of Political Enemies Donald Trump’s self-proclaimed “secretary of retribution” is even more bloodthirsty than the former president. Donald Trump’s self-proclaimed “secretary of retribution” is touting a wild plan to arrest politicians, police officers, and journalists he views as disloyal to the former president, according to a sweeping new investigation by Raw Story. Conservative political activist Ivan Raiklin claims to have assembled a “Deep State target list” that includes high-ranking Democrats and Republicans, U.S. Capitol Police officers, officials at the FBI and other intelligence agencies, witnesses in Trump’s impeachment trials, and journalists at The New York Times, CNN, The Washington Post, and other news outlets. Their supposed crime? Being Trump’s political enemies. And Raiklin views himself as justice incarnate. During one podcast appearance earlier this year, Raiklin said his nickname was the “deep state marauder, a.k.a. the mauler.” Raiklin’s plan for what to do with his list isn’t nearly as gruesome, but it is still terrifying. He intends to enlist right-wing sheriffs to carry out mass arrests, and in May, he declared his intention to arrange “livestreamed swatting raids.” … Those arrests would be carried out by “constitutional sheriffs,” specifically a right-wing anti-government group called the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association. Those sheriffs would then deputize the 75,000 veterans Raiklin claims were dismissed from the military for refusing to comply with Covid-19 vaccine mandates, forming a rogue army intent on revenge. …, https://newrepublic.com/post/183652/trump-ally-exposed-horrific-hit-list-political-enemies

“The US is not a Democracy” is one of those untrue talking points that Republicans suddenly started saying circa 2014 when Putin started grooming Republicans with online influence campaigns that included this message . The US is a democracy….at least for now….look it up. A Republic is type of democracy.

Show me, please

No she did not rule it was illegal.

Here’s those peace-loving right wing nazis in their MAGA hats

It wasn’t illegal or political violence. Stealing the documents was illegal and the “raid” was a polite and professional search arranged with Trump security in advance with FBI agents discretely wearing civilian clothes so as not disturb the other guests.

Then Tucker realized he had the house key on him the whole time

Another opposite-of-reality post by the right. “Punch a Nazi” came about because the Right produced actual Nazis, one of whom killed a woman after ramming a crowd with his car. The claim that anyone to the right of Bernie Sander was labeled a nazi is also a made up lie. Right wingers clearly don’t believe rights are universal which is why the OP wants people jailed for insulting Trump And other influencers are consumed with “retribution” fantasies of rounding up the media, previously called for rounding up Muslims etc. A core principle of conservatism is social hierarchy where people at the top are to a certain degree “above the law” and social norms and people at the bottom are “below the law” and don’t deserve all the basic rights, which must be earned. Just look at their views they’ve regularly expressed about the death penalty, torture, civilian casualties, migrants, and so on

MAGA Enters Racist Meltdown Mode Over J.D. Vance’s Wife The far right is absolutely losing it over Usha Vance. The past week has seen an outpouring of hate from the far right over the wife of Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance. The unremarkable fact that Vance is married to Usha Vance, a woman of Indian heritage, has become a fixation for white nationalists online. Following Monday’s announcement of Vance as Trump’s running mate, white nationalist “groyper” Nick Fuentes seemed to enter a meltdown on his broadcast, saying, “What kind of man marries somebody that isn’t a Christian? What kind of man marries somebody named Usha? Clearly, he doesn’t value his racial identity, his heritage. Clearly, he doesn’t value his religion. He doesn’t marry a woman that professes Jesus Christ? What does that say about him?” Jaden McNeil, another white nationalist activist, posted a picture of Vance, his wife, and their newborn with the caption, “I’m sure this guy is going to be great on immigration.” Other prominent far-right accounts havesimilarly bemoaned Vance’s multiracial family, with replies awash in bigotry. “There is an obvious Indian coup taking place in the US right before our eyes,” whined far-right conspiracy theorist Stew Peters. …. https://newrepublic.com/post/183975/maga-racist-meltdown-jd-vance-wife-usha

Yeah a Republican gun nut whose phone search history revealed he was researching public appearances of other public figures including Biden, Merrick Garland and members of the British royal family in the days before the murder, in addition to researching his mental health. Sounds like he just wanted to kill a famous or powerful person.

So then what’s your point exactly?

It is edgy. The photographer who planned and took the phot is described as some known for edgy photos. If it was Republican standing with an Obama head you would say it’s all in harmless good fun and controversial views shouldn’t be silenced no matter whose feelings get hurt and Dems are just trying to stifle free speech That’s what Republicans have said in the past.

So in your world an elected official calling for Obama to be executed is a mild statement but saying Trump should have to pay for his own private security is an undeniable death threat. Seriously. Lol no you wouldn’t. Cable TV and the internet are CRAWLING with right wing trolls and influencers they must outnumber liberals 10:1. And are there any influencers more vile than Alex Jones? Jussie Smollett is not a Democrat influencer he was just an actor seeking attention. When he starts going on tour with AOC and speaking at Democrat rallies give me a call. Also he didn’t call for anyone to be executed he just falsely claimed he was attacked by bigots. Your standard for what constitutes hate speech is ridiculously low when it come to alleged Democrats and ridiculously high when it comes to Republicans. Do you honestly think you apply the same standards across the board?? Sorry YOU’RE the liar. That’s not what was said at all. What was said is that people convicted of a felony shouldn’t be entitled to taxpayer funded Secret Service protection, and that Trump can certainly afford his own private protection. Considering Republicans don’t believe people convicted of felonies should be allowed to vote or own firearms it’s not an unreasonable policy. Honestly you ought to be ashamed of yourself the way you misrepresent things I tell you what silly boy you better support giving me taxpayer funded 24/7 security otherwise I’ll complain that you’re calling for my death. Seriously you should just drop the dumb arguments they’re not helping you. BTW the schoolyard insult I was referring to was the politician who allegedly joked that trump wasn’t human The motion to ban SS protection from convicted felons - which you would totally 100% support if Obama or Biden - were a convicted felon - wasn’t a joke or insult LMAO you’re pathetic. Are trying to claim that calling someone a communist is completely different from calling them a Marxist and somehow my point about his verbal attacks has been disproven? Are you suggesting that if I had said PP’s got a long track record of insulting Liberals by calling them Communists and Marxists you would have wholeheartedly agreed? Are you even claiming there’s a difference? You were proven wrong and a like typical conservative loser you respond to defeat and humiliation by denying reality You’re like Donald Trump correcting that hurricane map with a friggin magic marker because he couldn’t admit he accidentally included a wrong state in a hurricane tweet Or like Donald Trump denying he lost the 2020 election You make us laugh but your ridiculous assertions like this convince nobody No, you were vague and poorly articulated what you meant by “worse”. How can it be the same but also worse? Excessive accusations of lying when clearly that’s not what happened is also a sign of your shitty debating skills. I mean in your earlier post when you incorrectly stated I didn’t provide a single example of a Republican politician making hateful comments when I actually had….were you lying? But you’ve already established that random people commenting on the internet don’t count you only want elected officials. In which case ZERO democrats said “too bad he missed.” If you want to include any random tweeter or YouTube personality the Republicans have LEGIONS of trolls who have been screaming vile things about Obama, Biden, Pelosi, AOC, Schiff, Schumer for years and there is equivalent on the left. Let’s not forget all the right wing hate groups like Patriot Front who police caught mustering in a Uhaul truck in full riot gear about to attack a nearby LGBTQ picnic . A smaller vile crowd also exists on the far right in Canada. No no you want all those excluded because you have one politician who joked trump wasn’t human and some politicians who understandably argue it’s absurd to deny felons the right to vote for the rest of their lives but to pay for their lifelong 24/7 security….which you think is worse than calling for Obama and others to be executed

So multiple instances of lynching Obama in effigy is ok but beheading a Trump doll as party of an “edgy” photoshoot is not ok? Remember when Republicans are burning Korans and drawing cartoons of Mohammad freedom of expression was supposedly sacred? I don’t at all find it a coincidence that the only things you consider offensive id anything that that conflict with your political affiliation Siggh…live in reality much? that wasn’t his ACTUAL Halloween costume and multimillionaire Trump Jr isn’t trying to save money on a clever costume either. Since you are clearly clueless, it was 80+ yr old Pelosi who got his skulls fractured in a hammer attack by a deranged man, which Jr and his ghouls were making fun of. As it was late at night Pelosi was wearing a pyjama shirt and boxer shorts. Republicans spread the lie that both men were shirtless and in tighty-whities to suggest something sexually inappropriate was going on between them and defuse any sympathy for the victim. Therefore Don Jr’s tweet was to ridicule a brutal on an elderly senior citizen and to spread viscous lies about the victim. Period

No I posted many examples of actual Republican elected officials, as well as outspoken Republican influencers. You gave a few examples of Democrats making schoolyard insults. and some were not even that. Honestly you think suggesting Trump should pay for his own security is worse than calling for Obama and Biden to be executed? Not only are you guilty of self-serving memory and selective awareness, your self-serving selective judgment is on display yet again. OMG you are so desperate to back up your ridiculous bullshit claim even you must’ve had a hard time keeping a straight face pretending this is the same thing as calling for his death, The proposed act would have cancelled SECRET SERVICE for any protected person convicted of a felony, BTW, not just Trump. To say that is the exact same as calling for Trump’s death especially for someone as rich as trump with his own private security and compounds, is beyond absurd. What you think it was a typo? He said that and similar things repeatedly. If it’s such unfortunate speech that gets people killed as you claim, he wouldn’t have been made VP just with an “oops sorry”. LOL sure, pal, sure. Your examples are pathetic. Nearly all Republican speeches are nothing more than rants about Democrats destroying America, they are nothing without the evil democrats to rage and rant against they have nothing of their own, everything they talk about relates to stopping democrats and the left. The Oklahoma official mandating bible lessons in public school couldn’t even explain the reason for the policy to reporters other than repeatedly suggesting anyone who would question it is a “leftist extremist” As for 2 decades, It’s hard to draw a line, Rush Limbaugh had been around a long time, his bombast used to be on the fringe now it’s mainstream. And then there’s Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and more who have made bombast and outrageous accusations part of their normal daily fare dating back to Clinton years and before. We could go back further to the John Birch Society, William F Buckley and McCarthyism. Where do you draw the line? You can start with them or the post-9/11 Republican hysteria when all Democrats were called terrorist lovers for questioning the Patriot Act and Bush’s fabricated lies justifying the invasion of Iraq, Obama was accused of being a secret Islamist raised in a Madrassa, or the Tea Party Movement and all the racist anti- Obama rhetoric that came out, or the MAGA movement. The Republican hate machine didn’t appear out of thin air it moved from the party’s fringe to the mainstream. Which is it, Dems do similar things or worse things? If by “worse” you actually meant “more frequent” you’re still wrong and you have failed to provide either more examples or more extreme examples. No you just make up bullshit claims then accuse anyone who disagrees with you is a liar. For example when I once pointed put that PP has a long track record of calling Liberals Marxists and posted the clips to prove it, you tried to call me a liar because in some of the clips he said “communists” not Marxists as if that’s a difference. As far as lying goes: You also make up a lot of BS like “the left” supported Hitler when it fact “the left” was some if the most vocal opponents and the Hitler admirers were all on the right. And the. After I buried you in evidence to the contrary You tried to walk that back to “well someone [unnamed] on the left ‘ballyhooed’ his economic reforms” and again offered zero evidence. In short, when you’re cornered you resort to absolute bullshit like your post above claiming that calling for Secret Service protection to removed from convicted felons is the same as calling for their murder. MTG is a non-Republican now? Trump Jr is a non-Republican? I posted plenty of evidence of Republicans, some elected officials and some prominent influencers. You posted nonsense. Sorry your posts were garbage and that is why YOU are ramping up the insults and “overheated rhetoric” against me, something you do often whenever you get busted with dubious arguments and shown irrefutable evidence. TBH, I don’t think you and some others on here are primarily liars. I mean you’ll bullshit when absolutely necessary but mostly you’re just blind to how much your emotions control your perception of reality. Emotions have always played a larger role in Conservatism than in other parties: Fawning adoration of the leader unlike anything ever seen in the left even for left wing celebrities like Bill Clinton, Obama and the Trudeaus. Also burning hatred for the other party and despised social groups (immigrants, LGBTQ, etc.). So as a result when a Republican does something absolutely despicable you don’t have a negative emotional reaction to it (you might even like it, such as Trump Jrs tweets I mentioned) but if a Democrat does something even minor like use the word “deplorable” you have a strong negative emotional reaction as if it was the most unspeakable thing ever. You’re hardwired to minimize, ignore and forget the transgressions of your party while grossly exaggerate and overreact to those of the other party or groups you hate. But that’s what Trumpism is all about, the GOP is now the “choose your own reality” party. Go from one Trump supporter to the next they all have different versions of reality even from each other, other than they all worship the same messiah no matter what universe they live in. So it’s not at all surprising that you live in a reality where you thinkRepublicans rarely use “overheated rhetoric” but the occasional mild chiding and standard criticism by Democrats is frequent and outrageous attacks.

I have long thought that it’s time for the Snowbirds to go. We can’t spare the resources for a flight demo team when there’s a critical shortage of pilots and maintenance personnel and damn well everything else. Watching 60-yr old subsonic training aircraft isn’t all that exciting anyway, I find them kind of boring compared to Blue Angels or Thunderbirds in their F/A-18s and F-16s. They should have been cancelled long ago but the government kept them active to avoid controversy from the very same Canadian public who has been generally uninterested in military spending. Keeping the snowbirds this long was about maintaining outward appearances while gutting the CAF so axing the snowbirds would be an overdue wakeup call for the public. As for the MCDVs, don’t get me started on those detestable pieces of crap that have been crap since they were first purchased. Feels like we would need something to replace them but we probably can’t spare the crews in the near future and our procurement is already overwhelmed and FUBAR’d to the extreme especially shipbuilding. I don’t know how we could possibly add this to the list in the foreseeable future.

Ottawa looking at retiring some older military equipment — including the Snowbird jets Defence Minister Bill Blair insists no decisions have been made Murray Brewster · CBC News · Posted: Jul 17, 2024 3:00 PM EDT | Last Updated: July 17 The Canadian Air Force Snowbirds fly over Great Falls, Mont., on Friday, June 1, 2007. (Rion Sanders/Associated Press) The Department of National Defence is actively considering whether to retire some older ships, planes and other items of equipment that have become difficult and costly to maintain — including the aircraft belonging to the iconic Snowbird demonstration squadron. In an interview with CBC News, Defence Minister Bill Blair insisted no decisions have been made and he's waiting on advice from military leaders. Blair said the 1960s-vintage CT-114 Tutor jets used by the Snowbirds have been in service too long. He said he's asked the commander of the air force whether the planes — which were given a life extension to 2025 and are now going through an additional upgrade — have finally "aged out." Defence Minister Bill Blair: 'I want to maintain the Snowbirds. I just want to get them a better plane.' (Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press) "The reality is the Tutor plane is well past its utility," Blair said. "There are even some safety issues that are deeply concerning to me and I've received assurances that through this flight season ... they can manage those safely, but it continues to persist as a concern." Blair did not elaborate on those safety issues. The aircraft have crashed a number of times. Capt. Jennifer Casey, an air force public affairs officer, died on May 17, 2020 when the Snowbird she was in crashed after takeoff near Kamloops, B.C. Gov. Gen. Julie Payette, followed by Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan, attends the homecoming ceremony for RCAF Capt. Jennifer Casey at Halifax Stanfield International Airport in Enfield, N.S. on Sunday, May 24, 2020. Casey, a military public affairs officer and a Halifax native, was killed in the crash of a Snowbirds Tutor jet in a residential area of Kamloops, B.C.(Andrew Vaughan/The Canadian Press) The air force recently installed new avionics the defence department says can keep the demonstration jets flying until perhaps 2030 — almost 70 years after they were purchased. Defence sources say the navy's 1990s vintage minesweepers, known as maritime coastal defence vessels (MCDVs), could also be on the chopping block. "There's a number of our ships that have ... they're becoming increasingly expensive, almost prohibitively expensive to maintain and ... even to staff," Blair said, adding he's awaiting a recommendation from the commander of the navy. Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Wayne Eyre talks to his troops at Garrison Petawawa in Petawawa, Ont. on Thursday, Oct. 19, 2023. (Sean Kilpatrick/The Canadian Press) The country's soon-to-retire top military commander, Gen. Wayne Eyre, said the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) is examining a list of older capabilities that should be replaced, the time it might take to replace them and whether it makes sense to take that equipment out of service in the meantime. Eyre would not discuss details, saying the decision ultimately will be up to the minister and his successor, Lt.-Gen. (soon to be General) Jennie Carignan. The navy has made a case publicly for replacing its four Victoria-class submarines and the Liberal government announced during the recent NATO Summit in Washington that it would proceed with the program. The defence department was asked a series of questions about ships, planes and other pieces of equipment that are near the end of their service lives. It did not respond. Eyre said the tough choices are not so much about budgets as they are about the age and survivability of the equipment. "As a capability ages out, there's a declining pool of spare parts to be able to keep it going," he said. "Opening up assembly lines for some of these spare parts — if they're very small, if it's a fleet that is very small worldwide — may not make a lot of sense." The naval tugboat Glenivis assists as HMCS St. John's heads to the Mediterranean in Halifax on Monday, Jan. 9, 2017. The recent budget set aside money to maintain Halifax-class frigates like the St. John's. (Andrew Vaughan/Canadian Press) The recent federal budget set aside funding to maintain older warships, such as the navy's Halifax-class frigates. But Eyre said not all of the military's needs were covered and "there's a delta" between the upkeep required and the amount of cash available. The aging-out crisis now gripping the military has been decades in the making and is the product of successive governments "not wanting to make the hard choices," said Christian Leuprecht, a professor at the Royal Military College of Canada. He said the military and the government will have to take care in choosing which items of equipment to decommission and when. "Our allies are seeing that Canada is effectively reducing capabilities because it simply doesn't have the money, the political will or the human resources to generate new capabilities — or to even sustain the capabilities Canada currently has," said Leuprecht. He added he believes the staffing crisis within the military is making the situation worse by leaving the CAF with fewer technicians to keep older aircraft and ships running. There may be no better example of the federal government's reluctance to replace military equipment on a timely basis than the Snowbirds' Tutor jets, which were first ordered by the military in 1961. Maj. Robert Mitchell, right, lead pilot of the Canadian Forces Snowbirds, and Sgt. Marlene Shillingford, crew chief, perform a preflight inspection on their jet before takeoff from Great Falls International Airport on June 1, 2007 in Great Falls, Mont.(Rion Sanders/Associated Press) The jets began their demonstration career in 1967. They adopted the name Snowbirds in 1971 and were formally designated as the airshow team in 1975. The Tutors also served for decades as the air force's principal jet trainer before being retired from that task in the early 2000s. Of the 191 originally ordered, roughly 26 are thought to be in the air force inventory or in storage. In 2003, the air force was urged in no uncertain terms to quickly replace the Tutors, which were considered well-maintained but ancient. A study by the defence department's director of major service delivery procurement warned at the time that the aircraft's life expectancy would run to 2010 but could be extended for another decade if absolutely necessary. Keeping the Tutor poses 'significant' risks, report warned "With each passing year, the technical, safety and financial risk associated with extending the Tutor into its fifth decade and beyond will escalate," said the review, written in August 2003. "These risks are significant, however they are not easily quantified." The Snowbirds kept flying, however. A DND report from the fall of 2014 cleared the fleet as "technically airworthy" but noted "significant concerns, including some caused by financial restraints." That same evaluation said the Tutors could have their lives extended to 2025. "I want to maintain the Snowbirds. I just want to get them a better plane," said Blair, adding that he's asked the commander of the air force about the feasibility of using "existing fighter jets" to maintain an aerial demonstration team, as other allies do. "I think that's something that I want to explore." If Canada's NORAD and NATO commitments make that option impossible, he said, he wants to begin the search for a replacement for the Tutor as soon as possible. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/snowbirds-tutor-jets-canadian-armed-forces-1.7266310

….not to mention GPS jamming and spoofing is now a common practice in Ukraine and other conflicts which means the ability to operate in “GPS Denied” environment is now a critical core skill that all personnel need to have.

No its not and I just provided ample evidence of Republicans saying that far more often about Obama. What “actual democrats” have called for Trump to be killed? You’re using a double standard where random people postinghate speech on the internet are counted as speaking for all democrats but not for all republicans So did Trump’s VP pick Vance who called Trump “America’s Hitler”. I can’t believe you’re able to sit there with a straight face and claim Republicans haven’t said similar things about Obama and Biden. Bombastic rhetoric like that has been part of the right’s regular daily rhetoric for a generation going back to Rush Limbaugh. And the comparisons to early Hitler are apt. Remember Hitler originally campaigned in a democratic election and wasn’t killing millions of people at that time. He was a right wing populist scapegoating immigrants attacking the media, using rhetoric similar to Trump’s, promising massive reform and harsh punishment for his opponents with a mob of nationalist supporters committing acts of political violence not unlike J6. When campaigning for election Hitler never told the public he would be a dictator… Trump promised he’d be a dictator on day one. No the reality is that when Republicans say similar or worse things you either ignored it or delete it from your memory because it’s not useful information for you. Or you justify it as harmless or accurate. When Teump recently retweeted a post showing Biden tied up and abducted in the back of a truck I don’t recall you being offended. How many democrats have said Trump should be killed? And remember if all the random people on the internet spewing right wing hate speech don’t count if they’re not actual republican politicians them then they don’t count if they’ve not actual democrat politicians. Look at right wing kooks like MTG, Boebert, Tulsi , Gaetz and more who make crossing lines of civility their brand. Nobody ever booed or heckled the President during their State of the Union Speech until Republicans started doing it to Obama which escalated to characters like MTG and Boebert literally jumping out of their seats and screaming insults at Biden while he speaks LMAO that’s nothing compared to what Republicans have said daily about democrats for the past decade or 2 I mean at the RNC meeting where Republicans PRETENDED to suddenly care about unity Johnson still said Democrats are “a clear and present danger to America, to our institutions, our values, and our people.” I guess you believed his hilarious excuse that he only said that due to a teleprompter malfunction.

Canada set to be fastest growing economy in G7 in 2025, IMF forecasts Latest outlook puts this country ahead of United States and United Kingdom Published Jul 17, 2024 • Last updated 15 hours ago • 3 minute read The International Monetary Fund is upgrading its forecast for the Canadian economy, projecting it will now grow by 1.3 per cent this year and by 2.4 per cent in 2025, according to a report released Wednesday. In both readings, the forecasts were increased by one-tenth of a percentage point from the IMF’s initial world economic outlook released in April. For 2025, Canada is projected to be the fastest growing economy among the G7 and other advanced economies. The U.S. economy will rank second at 1.9 per cent and the U.K. third at 1.5 per cent growth next year. The projection for global growth remains the same at 3.2 per cent this year, and slightly higher for next year at 3.3 per cent, revised up from 3.2 per cent growth projected in April. https://financialpost.com/news/imf-forecasts-canada-fastest-growing-economy-g7-2025 Clearly, Trudeau is to blame.
