Last week I randomly got a $9,000 bill for a hospital visit from last year. I called them up and they said my insurance decided not to cover it. Why? Because.

.@Aetna can just decide they’re not interested in covering something and then you’re left with an inflated bill to pay out of pocket after the fact.

This is in addition to a $2,000 bill that I already paid. They just don’t want to cover it despite me paying a monthly premium.

Meanwhile illegals get free healthcare.

Honestly fuck you @Aetna. I’m gonna do everything I can to destroy you.

By the time I am 65, over $600,000 will be paid into #SocialSecurity on my behalf.

That money would have been worth $1.9 million if I had gotten a 5% return. My annual interest would be $95k.

The government promises me $3,075/month at age 67, which is $37k/year.

HOW IS THIS NOT THEFT??

Something I rarely ever discuss and never share publicly is the huge amount of responses I receive from China defectors every time Sam Cooper and I get together for a conversation.

I have hundreds of emails in my inbox from people who narrowly escaped communist China and some from people who are still there.

I would never share their identities because China tracks dissenters all over the world. If you were born in China from 1948 up to the present day, the CCP believes they own you as an individual and have the right to lay claim over your agency as a human being.

It sounds ridiculous but this is the prevailing mode of thought in China—beginning with Mao and continuing with Xi Jinping—and is the mode of thought we're seeing emerge in Canada and the EU.

What I hear most from China defectors is about a blood-curdling fear that Mark Carney and the Liberal government are going to increase China's access to the Chinese diaspora in Canada. These people are terrified that the harassment they experience is going to transform into real world violence—the same violence they and their families came here to escape.

When we discuss these issues we often talk about them in a geopolitical context—Mark Carney sells Canada to China, Trump now forced to strong-arm Canada away from China—but there are very real people on the ground caught between these dueling empires. There are real stories here; real people who are fearful that this communist monster is about to snatch their freedom from them again.

I think it's important we remember that. It's easy to get distracted by the geopolitical theater, but these movements on the global chess board have real consequences—and not just for Chinese-Canadians and Chinese-Americans. We are all going to be deeply affected by this. Whether you're outspoken like me, or prefer to move through it all with your head down, this thing is coming for all of us.

America has to win.

Eurasia Group, you ask … what’s happening there?

Over $1.53 MILLION in federal contracts (your tax dollars btw) went to Eurasia Group over 10 years.

Who works there? Mark Carney’s wife, Diana Fox Carney, in a senior role.

Who else? Gerry Butts, also in a senior role. Also a staunch, long time Liberal.

Now Mark Carney is leaning on Eurasia Group "analysis.”

What’s the analysis? (Remember who works there). Analysis to justify distancing Canada from our closest ally & largest trading partner, while moving closer to China, a communist dictatorship which interfered in Canada’s elections.

Does this scream independent analysis to you?

Are Canadians not supposed to notice what’s happening?

Does your child dread going to school? Not occasionally, but regularly, viscerally, in their body?

Most parents dismiss this as normal. "School is hard." "Life is hard." "Toughen up." But dread is data. It's your child's nervous system telling you something is wrong.

You watch this interview and quickly realize that the ridiculous caricature that Democrats and the media have spun up about DOGE is complete bs.

Turns out they’re serious people doing important work to root out waste in the government and know what they’re doing.

[Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 @ezralevant]

Mark Carney says our military & economic relationship with the U.S. is over.

He says that, never even having spoken to Trump.

No-one elected Carney. He's not even an MP. Until a few weeks ago, he didn't live in Canada.

He needs a crisis to win. The bigger the better.

[The Pleb 🇨🇦 @truckdriverpleb]

Canada is so lucky to be neighbors with the world's strongest economy and superpower

Destroying this relationship is so stupid and reckless

Do you know how many countries wish they had the United States of America as a neighbor?

Please fix this relationship immediately

If I had been inadvertently added to a Signal chat where Lloyd Austin, Kamala, and Jake Sullivan were discussing, say, the Ukraine War, took screenshots, then posted them here, I would 100% be in prison (or worse).

Common sense has been restored.

Thank you President Trump and @elonmusk!

You are not entitled to our money. You and Bill have $137 billion net worth. If you want to make commercial for-profit vaccines, forced on “customers” practically at gunpoint, while lying and censoring side effects, you can damn well do that “philanthropy” with your own money.
