I just hope both Canada and Europe draw the right conclusions from this episode. The US simply isn't a reliable partner anymore and it probably won't be for quite some time. I find it a bit disheartening when people put their hopes in "midterms are coming" ... Jeffrey Epsteins BFF is already questioning whether midterms should even be a thing. He won't be able to cancel them, but it would be naive to think he won't do whatever he can to make the outcome as favorable as possible. And even if you believe in fair midterms: the US electorate deserves absolutely zero trust to get this right. Over 77 million Americans voted for this sad fart only 14 months ago, I see no reason to believe that voters will punish him this time around.
I don't think you can just sit this out and somehow make it to midterms/2028/whenever and think things are going to return to normal once the old fart leaves office or goes to hell ... Peter Thiel and friends will be more than ready for the moment. The US have been so poisoned this past decade, there's not going to be a quick fix after Trump. The quicker Canada, Europe and other allies accept this reality and work together towards more independence from the US, the better.

"The House Ethics Committee found that Matt Gaetz did all of the horrible things previously claimed—sex trafficking minors, prostitution (including of minors), drugs, drunk driving, obstruction, the works. The Florida Bulldog has secured and published the House report this evening," Scott Horton, contributing editor at Harper's, posted on Bluesky.
"We sort of knew all this, but I hope the constituents of the GOP 'Ethics' Committee members hound them relentlessly about why they fell in line to protect this criminal," writer Julian Sanchez posted on Bluesky.

US formally withdraws from WHO. Well we know the Regime wants everyone who is not one of their ilk to die, but MAGA still won’t believe it. Part of the plan is using faith-based organizations? What? Thoughts and prayers, laying on of hands, wtf?

Far down the list of awful things these pieces of #### do, but if you felt like some good ol' rage fodder, here you go.

Did Lutnick not speak with his boss before making his dumbass comments? Trump himself said he had no problem with Carney’s China deal just a few days ago, saying something along the lines of “good for them. If you can get a deal with China, you should do it.”

Lutnick is also the guy who said he figured out Epstein was a creep, and didn't want anything to do with him, the only time he met him, so he has a habit of saying things that make Trump look bad.

Lol, he’s such a child.
Also, from what I read earlier, none of America’s NATO allies have signed onto it.
