Think everyone knew this was an inside job. But looks like some evidence leaking out which confirms it.

That Trump tweet reads like a parody from the Onion. Just hilariously stupid and not based in any kind of reality. Same as the ridiculous airplane crap and his 100% tariff/China deal threat.

Once again, if I’m the Canadian government I wouldn’t even respond to this. Just leave it alone and let it disappear into the ether like his other threats. Let Michigan deal with if it actually turns into anything, which it won’t. At this point even his own administration seems to be ignoring his senile old-man-yelling-at-clouds tweets.

The cognitive decline on display there is quite startling and I'm a little surprised that everyone who was banging the drum about Biden's mental acuity isn't in here now doing the same for Donald. I don't know what's different as there's no way those Cassandras were being selectively outraged due to partisan politics right? I believe in the honesty and integrity of my fellow man.

The owners of the Ambassador Bridge, the Moroun family of Detroit, wants compensation for what they claim is the new bridge's infringement on their exclusive right to collect tolls.

The Moroun family appealed to Trump during his first term as president to stop the new crossing. However, Trump endorsed the bridge as a priority project in 2017, issuing a joint statement with then-prime minister Justin Trudeau calling it a "vital economic link between our two countries."

Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens says parts of Trump's post are factually incorrect, as U.S. steel was used in the construction from the Michigan side of the river.

"It's just insane," Dilkens told CBC Power & Politics host David Cochrane on Monday evening.

"I really can't believe what I'm reading," Dilkens said. "The faster we can get to the midterms and hopefully see a change, the better for all of us."
Quote:
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Witmer is defending the bridge and says it was built by unionized construction workers from both sides of the border.

"The Gordie Howe International Bridge is all about jobs. It's good for Michigan workers and it's good for Michigan's auto industry," Whitmer's press secretary Stacey LaRouche said in an email to CBC News.

"This project has been a tremendous example of bipartisan and international cooperation. It's going to open one way or another, and the governor looks forward to attending the ribbon cutting,” LaRouche said.

If you follow the money I'm guessing there's a good reason Trump is all of a sudden threatening the bridge opening. How much money has the Mouron family given Trump lately?

He's probably pissed because it's the Gordie Howe Bridge.

Just name the bike lane after Trump and all will be good.

And what does China have against hockey?

Who writes these rambling tweets anyway?

China actually loves hockey, and a lot of people there play. Dave Bidini talks a lot about it in his book Tropic of Hockey where he travelled around the world playing in various rec leagues in different countries. Really fun & interesting book for anyone who is a fan of the game.

Just rename it the Epstein bridge and I’m sure they won’t want ownership any longer

We should agree to buy some American steel. Then build the world's largest windmill with it right on the border.

I feel like the bridge and the hockey may be a distraction from something...
I wonder what it could be

Rep. Jamie Raskin yesterday, after reviewing non-redacted Epstein files, says trump LIED about Epstein being barred from Mar-a-Lago.
He said the delay in releasing the files is that trump's DOJ is engaged in a coverup, trying to "sweep the whole thing under the rug."
"You read through these files, and you read about 15-year-old girls, 14-year-old girls, 10-year-old girls.
"I saw a mention of a 9-year-old girl today. I mean, this is just preposterous and scandalous."
"Releasing the names of a lot of victims is either spectacular incompetence and sloppiness on [DOJ's] part or, as a lot of the survivors believe, a deliberate threat to other survivors who are thinking about coming forward."

Tweets!? I've heard him say it whilst dressed in a tuxedo aboard Airforce 1! Well before the tweet. I'm confident he's typing his own tweets. Those words came right out his horse maw on national T. V. I laughed, turned the T. v off and went outside.

These aren’t the Epstein Files. They’re the Trump Files.

https://www.axios.com/2026/02/10/tru...kin-unredacted

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) told Axios in an interview Tuesday that when he searched President Trump's name in the unredacted Epstein files the previous day, it came up "more than a million times."


‪@muellershewrote.com‬
Trump shows up over a million times in the unredacted Epstein files. And that's the half they released. Imagine what's in the half they didn't release.

That means that the DOJ redacted Trump's name about 950K times in the 3M documents they released

The Guthrie kidnapping case is sad, but should not be dominating the news ahead of other gigantic issues in the US and A.

Cooper spending entire hour on this story. Tapper is live on the scene.

What is obsession with domestic true crime stories?
