125,000 jobs. 5% of GDP. 70% domestic procurement. And a deliberate pivot away from American arms manufacturers. This isn’t procurement reform — it’s geopolitical emancipation.
The reality is that DJT could care less about the US and what happens in geopolitics. It is about him alone and his ability to profit - both monetarily and in “prestige” - from this presidency.
He has one word for the people of the US: Suckers!
Here is AOC who just got done speaking at the Technical University in Berlin, at a talk open to students at all universities in Berlin. It starts about 19-20 minutes in.
Marco, if other countries aren't dependent on the US for their wartime needs, that's going to crash all the US military contractors. I don't think you want to be doing that if you depend on them for campaign contributions.
Trump Tirade Over Bridge to Canada Backfires, Handing Dems 2026 Weapon
In addition to providing regular comic relief, President Trump's eruptions over imagined slights provide opportunities for his advisers to engage in rank, devious manipulation. This may be happening with Trump's latest tirade against Canada, in which he threatened to block the opening of the long-awaited Gordie Howe International Bridge, which will connect Detroit to Windsor, Ontario, and facilitate cargo transport between the two cities.
Heard a wonderful suggestion that citizens from both nations should pack the bridge in peaceful protest on opening day, for the world to see regular people unified and defiant.
It's all about the money. The company that operates the Ambassador Bridge has been lobbying Trump because they stand to lose billions when the Gordie Howe Bridge becomes operational.
It’s really sad and pathetic that Trump doesn’t understand that he’s not the great and powerful Oz, like he thinks he is. But who’s going to pay the price here? Many of his voters.
I think when Carney decided that he was running as leader, the Liberals were much more fortunate than they realised. We had a man who knew the financial standings of the UK and kept an eye on other Euro markets. He already had the background with the Canadian side. In the short span of time, he has really flipped Canadian on like a keto diet, dropped the excess with red tape but reaping the growth with new deals, new infrasture, sayings NO to the neighbour banging on the ceiling.. Those Canadians who have moved on from our "D I V O R C E", see that we are OK with being open to new things and sometimes seaweed pie for dessert. Google it kids.
Good on ya, my northern sisters and brothers! Trust me, we here in the US are trying to get our country back on the right side of history, but in the meantime, this is a healthy development. The alliance structure and leadership need to be far less US-dependent than they have been, and I applaud Canada for running point on this. And who gives a flying fuck about what comes out of Marco Rubio’s mouth anyway?
First of all, RUBIO is lying through his teeth and he’s one of the biggest hypocrites in that administration. He’s looking to make a bid for the next presidential elections and he’s trying to position himself.
I liked this statement: ...we’re LONG done with the Idea that a Rapist President who beats his own citizens while kidnapping Presidents of South American countries to sell their oil for personal profit in a Qatari bank account, will do anything but the right thing for Canada
Note how grift drives Trump attacks on Canada. Billionaire grift vs. working Americans: How the Epstein-class elite sabotaged the Gordie Howe Bridge to protect a private monopoly
Love the picture of Shitforbrains and the Qatari gentleman. Notice that the Qatari has Shitforbrains’s right hand in his left. Now I may be imagining here but to me that speaks volumes in traditional Arab culture. And the Qatari’s face is very telling.
Not even for a moment have I doubted PM Carney & Co. (the registered smart people he has surrounded himself with in government and military) would guide us, unite us and lead our Country through this "uncharted territory" with measured, evenly calibrated Pragmatic Brilliance! I've been more proud in the past year of the majority of fellow Canadians and our Leader than ever before in my lifetime; I have confidence in our Future, of becoming much more self sufficient and self reliant country than ever before. No one can predict the future but I for one and most of my fellow Canadians (some who may not admit it openly but we have receipts and they know it) and Millions around the world supporting us, couldn't imagine anyone else navigating these tumultuous times than our chosen Leader!
Good on ya’, Canada, for seeing our rot and taking advantage of the opportunities. I’m not against America, but I’m sure NOT agreeable to the unAmerican bent of this regime. T can grift and steal every bit of our Treasury, but there is no sense asking Canada to replenish these billions so he can enrich himself any more. Keep on keepin’ on, with lots more ❤️ emojis to your PM and legislature! (And another ❤️ to you, Dean, for reporting all of this.)
About time, and not a moment too soon, proud to be a Canada for what we are, can and will be in the decades to come, working together in respectful harmony.

She is speaking truth to power, Trump's power and the entire talk is worth watching. She will hopefully make you more hopeful Anne.
And Losers!
Marco, if other countries aren't dependent on the US for their wartime needs, that's going to crash all the US military contractors. I don't think you want to be doing that if you depend on them for campaign contributions.
Too little, too late. Good for Canada, standing up for themselves. Be careful what you wish for, Little Marco.
I don't think Rubio thought this one through.
Do they ever?
No, because republicans can't understand consequences.
If Rubio is still capable of independent thought, he knows to not show it off in public or otherwise act on it.
😈
He's not the sharpest tack in the pack.
Ya know, Sometimes you get what you ask for! Marco, think you may have fucked up, Oop’s
Time for that structure to be torn down.
Glad that we’ve been preparing to meet our own defence needs.
Really glad that we put the right guy in the PM’s job.
That YOU DID! 👏
Your guy had nailed it from day 1.
Canada is stepping up for all Democracies. Full STOP.
Yes, we love them & they still love us in spite of our paedo-protector trump-epstein-miller regime!

THE BEST IDEA! BRILLIANT 💥
YES!!! PERFECT PLAN!!
It's all about the money. The company that operates the Ambassador Bridge has been lobbying Trump because they stand to lose billions when the Gordie Howe Bridge becomes operational.
Yes, it's one family. One freakin' family bribed Trump to come out against this bridge. I hope it sinks him.
Absolutely yes!
It’s really sad and pathetic that Trump doesn’t understand that he’s not the great and powerful Oz, like he thinks he is. But who’s going to pay the price here? Many of his voters.
He's notorious for stepping on his duck.

Well said my friend!
I agree
LOVE TO CANADA!

Marco Rubio is a traitor and couldn't get elected to Park Ranger.
I hear that he’ll have to compete against Crusty Gnome😂
Oh my gawd i forgot about that! 🤣 Good luck with that! If Marco wasn’t hated enough before that, he sure is NOW.
I liked this statement: ...we’re LONG done with the Idea that a Rapist President who beats his own citizens while kidnapping Presidents of South American countries to sell their oil for personal profit in a Qatari bank account, will do anything but the right thing for Canada
Those truly are the best quote!💙🌻🦋✌🏽
