@DonovanCleckley @GlobalWomenXX My academic work is about women working in clothing-factories and the health issues they develop. I’ve never studied feminism but this research made me understand the material reality of being a woman in a poor country : Family duties+long hours+health problems

Ask not what your country can do for you, but what it can do for Israel.

BREAKING: CNN's fact-checker exposes an AVALANCHE OF LIES from Trump about Canada — and there's a new one almost every day.

Donald Trump doesn't just have policy disagreements with Canada. According to CNN's chief fact-checker Daniel Dale, who happens to be Canadian himself, Trump has built his entire trade war narrative on a foundation of demonstrably false claims — and the lies keep coming.

Just today, Dale documented, Trump falsely claimed Canada's unemployment rate is "10% and rapidly rising." The actual number: 6.4%, and it's been DECLINING for three straight months. Trump also falsely claimed Canada does "95% of its business with the US." The real figure is 72%.

He blamed the entire US-Canada trade deficit on high Canadian agricultural tariffs, despite the fact that roughly 97% of US agricultural exports to Canada are already tariff-free, and the actual deficit stems overwhelmingly from cheap Canadian crude oil imports that benefit American consumers.

And that's just today's batch. Dale's running tally over the past 18 months reads like a highlight reel of fabrication.

Trump has falsely claimed Canada doesn't buy American agricultural products, when it's actually the world's SECOND-LARGEST buyer of them. He's falsely claimed Canadians support becoming America's 51st state, when polling shows overwhelming opposition.

He's falsely claimed Canada is among the world's highest-tariff nations, when World Trade Organization rankings place it near the bottom. He's falsely claimed Canada "essentially doesn't have a military," ignoring that Canadian forces have fought alongside American troops in multiple wars and rank in the upper half of NATO by force size.

He's also falsely inflated the US trade deficit with Canada to "$200 billion" (nowhere close), falsely claimed Canada bans American banks (more than a dozen currently operate there), falsely claimed Canada is "constantly surrounded" by Chinese and Russian ships (fiction), and falsely accused former PM Trudeau of using trade tensions to run for reelection — despite Trudeau, quite obviously, not running.

This isn't policy disagreement. This is a dispute over the nature of reality!

This is a sitting president manufacturing an entire economic conflict with one of America's closest allies using numbers he simply invented, over and over, across nearly two years, with virtually no correction or accountability.

When the facts don't support your trade war, apparently the solution is just to make up new facts. Someone needs to tell Trump that the world doesn’t work like that, and it may as well be CNN’s Daniel Dale.

Please like and share if you’re sick of Trump’s lies!

This image of a football match in Gaza was removed from a sports photography festival in France, following Israeli pressure.

Do you really still worship this being? I'm unsure that US citizens will enjoy paying 50% more on the following ...
Alcoholic Beverages: Wine, beer, rum, vodka, brandy, tequila, and whisky.
Dairy Products: Milk, cream, whey, milk protein concentrates, and related dairy ingredients/syrups.
Building & Wood Materials: Cement, plywood, wooden doors, and specific finished lumber.
Consumer & Everyday Goods: Furniture, clothing, footwear, luggage, cosmetics, and electronics/smartphones.
Niche & Sporting Goods: Fishing rods, swimming pools, wigs, honey, molasses, and various other sporting or recreational equipment.

Opinion: The lessons Israel has learned in the West Bank, Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, and Iran apply to Turkey as well. From Idlib to Istanbul, Israel will attack, if necessary, not defend.

@Shane_H_Ward @MeltingCA I thought it was the fentanyl crossing the border 🤣🤣🤣 you guys are short of propaganda points to hide the fact you want Canada to be a US vassal for your dying empire.

[Dr.Snekotron @snekotron]

The more detailed list of each of the extraordinary demands that the US inserted, apparently at the last minute. This is subjugation if not outright annexation. The US wants a veto on any Canadian infrastructure from ports to telecom/power grids.

Rather be poor than Americas whore.

Well done Mark Carney. You did the nation proud.

[J Hunter🍁 @MrJoKeR604]

The US wanted:

Restrictions on Canada's future trade deals
Restrictions on Canadian auto exports
A say in Canadian language policy
A say in Canadian culture

That's an attempt to dictate how Canada conducts itself as a sovereign country.

This isn't about trade. It's about control.

@kismek61 This ones actually funny 😆

[Bob Young @BobYoungTHI]

@sarobertson_ The problem the Trump Administration has here is that Carney not only is smarter by magnitudes than Trump is (almost everybody is), he is far smarter than anybody Trump has working for him - especially when it comes to economics.

There is something deeply funny about billionaires convincing a man making $52,000 a year that the greatest threat to his freedom is another worker making $14 an hour who speaks Spanish.

The immigrant didn't outsource your job.

The immigrant didn't raise your rent.
The immigrant didn't eliminate your pension.
You are being pickpocketed while somebody points dramatically at the guy standing next to you.

🚨🚨 Deux ans et demi après la mort du Québécois Jacob Flickinger, originaire de Beauce, et de six collègues de World Central Kitchen à Gaza, Israël n’ouvrira pas d’enquête criminelle. L’armée reconnaît de graves erreurs, mais dit avoir cru viser le Hamas. WCK dénonce une décision « profondément choquante ».

Gaza has no army, no air force, no navy, no tanks, no artillery, no missiles. Stop calling this a war.
