The trump administration has made the decision to attack
military installations inside Venezuela and the strikes could come at any moment, sources with knowledge of the situation told the Miami Herald, as the U.S. prepares to initiate the next stage of its campaign against the Soles drug cartel.
The planned attacks, also reported by the Wall Street Journal, will seek to destroy military installations used by the drug-trafficking organization the U.S. says is headed by Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro and run by top members of his regime. Sources told the Herald that the targets — which could be struck by air in a matter of days or even hours

While they go after Venezuelan for control of oil using drugs as an excuse, keep in mind their propaganda that Canada is the fentanyl bogeyman according them and we have critical resources they need just like Venezuela.

It's raw humiliation.
Not trying to glaze Carney here, but just look at this disparity in body language between his meeting with Xi and Trump's. (Pic 2 in this article)

LOL

In comments he attributed to his energy secretary Chris Wright, Trump took to his#Truth Social#platform on Thursday and wrote: “A former Lawrence Berkeley National Lab scientist won the Nobel Prize in physics for work in Quantum physics. Quantum computing, along with AI and Fusion, are the three signature Trump science efforts.

“Trump 47 racks up his first Nobel Prize!!”

Really nailin' it there, guys. But ya, we should totally be more like America. I'm sure their wonderful healthcare we are determined to copy is doing a lot of heavy lifting on this.

Trump is now threatening Nigeria with military action for persecuting Christians.



I have some extended family that have been impacted with the religious violence in Nigeria. My wife's aunt was married to a Nigerian man who was an Anglican preacher and human rights activist. He was recently murdered in a terrorist attack and she moved back to Canada with the kids. The police there are not even investigating the murder. It's definitely pretty messed up the stuff that is happening there.

Well he did re-name it the Department of War, so they gotta find ways to live up to their mandate. Wouldn't be much of a war department if it didn't go fight some wars, now, would it?

Oh **** me. It gets worse every day. What sh1tty policies will he come up with this week. This has become the biggest American crisis since the Civil War. Unfortunately it’s spilled out into the rest of the world and being next door we’re at high risk.

So Americans should expect an influx of Nigerian Christians escaping persecution? Like with the South Africans?

Or maybe it's Nigerian Oil?

Yeah, think of the destruction Trump or whoever replaces him will bring when his diet, lifestyle and bad health finally take him out.

I don't really get the uproar over the Reagan ad that Trump is so mad about. I've watched the whole original address a couple of times now. Yes, it was edited. Of course it was. It was a little over five minute address put into a 30 second commercial.

Now, I don't think that Ford should have done that and I think the timing was terrible. I think our provincial premieres should stay in their own lane, out of federal politics. Including our own.

But, I don't see what the right is so mad about. The entire address backs up what was in the edited portion. And to call it fake...

Could the U.S., and the world really, use a President Reagan right now!

Reagan's a hero of the Republicans so using his own words against them is very hard for them to process
