"I don’t see a golden age. I see an America that has become an ineffectual bully, sicker, poorer and riven by political extremism, with no friends anywhere in the world" - American economist Paul Krugman won the 2008 Nobel Prize in Economics

Very funny when conservatives complain about the government being "soft on crime" while also committing a bunch of crime, being convicted, going on house arrest, and asking for reprieves to go on vacation.
If cons didn’t have double standards, they would have none at all.
Trump is pursuing this war in the HOPE that Iran carries out an act of terror in the US. And even if it doesn’t, which I doubt it will, consider the possibility that Trump's people would fake one. Please consider this essay, written back in March, as well as the last few lessons of "On Tyranny."

The entire planet knows this is bullshit @jamiesongreer .
You tariffed us.
We responded.
We then removed those tariffs to honor CUSMA, because a deal is a deal.
You now have broken that agreement again.
It's always been America who went first.
Stop lying under oath.
This is hilarious, coming from the people who have their entire personality summed up by the "F🍁CK TRUDEAU/CARNEY" truck decals.
The far right are the biggest fcking snowflakes in Canadian politics.
To my fellow Americans: Please listen.
Despite the attacks, distractions, and false narratives, Canada 🇨🇦 remains one of America’s closest and most faithful friends.
Canadians have stood with us in our darkest hours—from helping Americans escape during the Iran hostage crisis, to responding to natural disasters, to opening their homes and airports to us after 9/11.
Canada is not only our neighbor. It is one of our most important trading partners, our ally, and our friend.
If Americans could choose any country in the world to share our longest border with, we would choose Canada every time.
That is the truth—and it is time we stood up for our friends.
@BruceAHeyman Thanks @BruceAHeyman ! Canada 🇨🇦 has and will always been USA ‘a friend and neighbour . We share our border, culture and many customs . However we are done being the bullied neighbour. We will fight for our sovereignty, freedom and rights. #elbowsUP
Hurricane Katrina? Canada sent warships & supplies.
Wildfires in 2021? Canada sent water bombers.
9/11? Canada housed 33,000 stranded Americans.
Now Trump mocks them and says "fix your own forests."
Canada has NEVER abandoned us. This is embarrassing, un-American, and wrong.
You don't strengthen your own economy by trying to weaken your closest friend and trading partner.
Buy Canadian.
Build Canadian.
Believe in Canada.
Always 🇨🇦.
Wab Kinew on national unity: "A single arrow can be broken easily, but a bundle of arrows cannot be snapped. And so national unity is important, especially when we're going up against a much larger opponent like the American economy."
Cochrane: "The U.S. posture has largely been, 'Don't you dare stand up for yourself, we'll retaliate against your retaliation,' and they demand capitulation from Canada on a lot of issues ... So that's the dynamic they're dealing with. No credit for concessions to this point. No real respect for the historic partnership and the relationship. And now a countdown clock with a tariff deadline looming."
