Better question is; Who do y'all want for your Governor of our 51st state? And anyone hear that Trump is wanting to change the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America?
Meh... I don't know. There's 2 things going on here... one is the new leader for the Liberal party, then there's the whole next PM race. I think our current Deputy PM (Freeland) will take it... and I'd be happy to see that. She pisses Trump off, and that has to be a good thing.
Trump supporters reached a level of stupidity that is actively malicious, and for which it is no longer its own excuse.
That whole 51st state shit he's spewing pisses me off. There's no fucking way Canada will ever let that happen. Ever. We'll just have to go down and burn down the White House. Again.
Bring it, maple syrup man. Edit to add - I follow Dawn on IG (from Naked and Afraid) and she is a huge alt right whackjob, a big Trumpster and even she had the same reaction as you
Every empire comes to an end eventually. It follows the same formula— some time down the road, the tribe gets so watered down with fuckheads that people actually start listening to them. Then they nominate one of their own to be the king of everything, and it all gets fucked up beyond repair. It happened to the Egyptians, the Romans, The Mongols… all of them. And it’s happening again.
Man, the "now is not the time to politicize a tragedy" crowd after every mass shooting is launching a full court press propaganda campaign, filled with lies, against California while the fires are still burning.
Yesterday they were blaming the smelt (a fish), Gavin Newsom, DEI, and bad forestry practices for the fires (ie: not doing controlled burns). Okay, I'm the last person to defend DEI/ Affirmative Action, but I really don't see what that has to do with the fire right now. None of the Right-wing pundits have elaborated on that, but they have ALL been bringing it up . And as far as the bad forestry practices go, from what I understand, most of the material burning is brush growing BETWEEN houses; are you really sure you want to start brush fires - no matter how closely watched - right next to houses? Surely, there has to be a better way. Another complaint that was made was that the Democrat-run cities had not been filling up their reservoirs for an occasion like this; did y'all know that one billionaire couple owns most of the water rights in California? I wonder which party they bribe, I mean "donate" to. https://www.google.com/url?q=https:...EQFnoECAkQAg&usg=AOvVaw1-n-vbEcJzoNFNOwOOVF9G
Ha! That was the part of Hannity’s radio show I heard on the way home. That entire program is pretty much a shit-testing wall.
Because they know their supporters and the people who listen to that shit are too stupid to think critically or any deeper than surface level. It boils down to: “The people I hate are responsible for everything bad that I don’t like.”
My far far far FAR right Facebook "friend" has been posting non-stop* about how this is the work of a DEW (direct energy weapon). Same weapon that was used to start the Hawaii fires. *seriously, he's posted six videos "proving" DEW exists just in the last hour.
Here's something that will unite us Californians and Canadians: The $30 million, specialty-built, Canadian firefighting plane that's been assisting with the Palisades fire has been grounded because it collided with some jagoff's unauthorized drone. Spoiler
And they are greatly exaggerating the impact. They will inspect it then put aviation tape on it and keep going. Source: my dad flew water bombers and was an AME on same.
Now the Right-wing pundits are saying that all of this was arson. They're trying to pin it on a guy with a "blow torch." Dana Loesch suddenly went from "Gavin Newsom/ the Dems can't run a state! Trans-women don't belong in the fire department!*" to "We need harsher penalties for arsonists!" in 24 hours. Do y'all believe any of this? Because I don't know what to believe anymore. What I KNOW FOR A GODDAMMED FACT is that Southern California has been having wildfires for my whole life, to the point where I wondered why anyone lived there. Yeah, there's the whole family/ job/ investment part of it, but I'm sick of hearing them cry about it. Just shut the fuck up, already. Live with it, or move. Same thing with all the Florida and Louisiana people. It's like if I started complaining about 100+ degree temperatures in South Texas, or if you Canadian Idiots were complaining about being snowed in. *I don't 100% disagree with those sentiments.
