You want to hurt/slow down these maggots? Stop buying their shit (I quit Amazon Prime for example) and show up. We must get our asses (and voices) in the streets. Do you really think this coup will end because of court orders? Boycott, strike, scream!

I not only canceled prime, but also deleted Amazon. In addition, I deleted the app for Google maps as the stench of endearment by the tech bros is really getting to me.

I'm proud that I was born in Canada. I wish my parents had stayed there.

Unless you renounced your Can. citizenship, you are deemed to have dual citizenship.

Most of my Irish descendants live in the 🇺🇸 and although my dad attempted to move us to California in the late 50s, I am grateful that he was denied a visa and lost his US citizenship because he served in the Can. military as a young man.

Thanks. Unfortunately my father was US military, so I'm not eligible. I'd go in a heartbeat if it wasn't for family in the US.

I believe that anyone born in Canada is a Canadian citizen. If your parents hold citizenship in another country, you are deemed to be a dual citizen of canada and along with your parents’ citizenship status.

Unless it was changed as of Jan 20th, 225, dual citizenship is now allowed by the 🇺🇸 for citizens born in a number of foreign countries. You can google it to confirm this.

Marching in the streets will not be enough, either. We need the courts since the GOP refuses to do their jobs. And we need to keep harassing them via phone and email and social media. Be the leopards eating their faces every day. They hate having their cushy caves disturbed by angry voters.

My suggestion for a new name: robbed from indigenous peoples whose tenets were the basis for your constitution

And: Senator Markey is the workers champion. Bravo to him for speaking up to Bezos, Zuckerberg and Musk.

Markey has been a champion of the common man in the halls of Congress since the mid-1970s. He is a true leader, and even now is battling for our democratic life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

We should get all Blue States to erect signs on all roads exiting into Red States that say, "Abandon all hope, ye that enter here." Hey Canada and Mexico! Put that at all entry points into the US.

I have long, long preferred "Dumbfuckistan" from an old Shrub-era website called www.dumbfuckistan.com which, alas, was never fully captured by the Wayback Machine :-(

And since unilaterally renaming geographic areas seems to be an okay thing, the capitol of Dumbfuckistan is Shitstain DC. The DC is important to distinguish our capitol from other cities named Shitstain. Someone please inform Google Maps and Apple Maps so they can reflect these important changes in their official maps and internet searches.

Regarding the Musk interview from the Oval Office standing next to Trump yesterday? It was a telling moment. They reiterated over and over the need for their methods. Which is tear everything down and start over to build it the way "those who put them there want it". What they didn't say, but implied again and again, was if and when they break everything, and their plans backfire, its because that's what their voters wanted...And its so fuckin true. Nearly half of America is neck deep in fox news, and their conspiracy echo chambers, they won't even see whats coming.

I sat in complete disbelief yesterday as I witnessed multiple alarming events happening around the world. The first was the audacity of Elon Musk, using his 4 year old as a human shield

talking for almost 30 minutes while lying over and over again that his DOGE actions have been transparent.

Secondly, Vance made a mockery of America when he basically told European leaders that America would take action if European leaders tried to put any kind of guardrails on AI development when in fact, generative AI is at risk of becoming one of the biggest threats against humanity. Sam Altman has said himself that Europe's approach to AI regulation is the best practice model for AI moving forward.

The grift of Musk, DOGE and now Russell Vought, while dismanting our government, defaming and humiliating hard-working federal employees, and impounding congress approved funding is nothing short of outrageous.

Thank you thank you thank you! I can't believe this orange nightmare keeps getting worse, and I don't know why I can't I've known it all along I guess I just didn't want it to happen. Thank you for the good fight although it doesn't seem like we're going to win it in the end at least for now

As a Canadian I am left dumbfounded that the systems of government are impotent in ensuring there are checks and balances with Trump administration’s nightmare. Bad enough that the American people are being disadvantaged but the complete global mess that is unfolding is simply unforgivable.

On a brighter note - I did enjoy reporting the Whitehouse website that states Gulf of America instead of Gulf Mexico is inaccurate was fun to do. As a Canadian I can’t seem to correct the google.com or google maps but I’ll investigate that further. Where there’s a will there’s a way.!

WTF is "soft power"?

If you read the referenced article, you'll see this quote/explanation of Justice Sotomayor's meaning: "In that sense, the court’s power is 'the power of reason, and that’s what most people would consider a soft power, but it’s the most powerful of all,' she said."

Note 1 - Dumbfuckistan

Note 18 - That could be arranged... (btw, President Ford was the last surviving member of the Warren Commission and he died in 2006)

Note 21 - Eeeeewwwwww... If we're lucky, the syphilis and gonorrhea will kill them both.

Fuck this shit! I agree with Margaret up above. We are the only ones who are going to be able to stop this shit. We need to hit the fucking streets of DC, not where you live. I mean hundreds of thousands of us if not more. This is absolute fucking bullshit that a South African motherfucker is tearing our institutions apart. I’m tired of the pussy footing around waiting for someone to do something. It has to be us. We have to organize and hit the streets peacefully, of course. This is our country. It doesn’t belong to several billionaires. And it’s the fucking GULF OF MEXICO and always will be.
