"Do your own research," they said. So I did 28 years, a medical degree, a PhD, and three postgraduate diplomas in infectious diseases later, I conclude that vaccines save millions of lives and do not cause autism.

"Canadian crude shipments are bypassing a pit stop off the California coast and heading straight to Asia as skyrocketing shipping rates make the detour less economical and the nation’s oil producers look to reduce dependence on the US" bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

This is what we published on the Bloomberg Terminal this morning
Canada is destroying itself by allowing millions and millions of people into the Country, essentially unchecked and unvetted, and who are causing problems that will soon be too big to handle. It is a Liberal takeover that will end very badly. Already showing up in their numbers. Big unemployment. ‘Oh Canada!

New in @semafor: Scott Bessent called Bloomberg’s EIC last year threatening the news org if it published a critical story. He hasn’t appeared on Bloomberg TV since the piece ran. My piece on the growing tension between the secretary and the usually low drama Treasury press corps

What's happened in Kansas has also happened in parts of Canada, of course. In 2011, Bombardier employed about 65,000 people. Now it's around 20,000 after years of restructuring and the sale of major divisions to save the company financially.
I’m going to fight to keep Bombardier’s over 1,200 Kansas jobs. I’ve already taken that concern inside the Oval Office. We agree on the mission: bring more good-paying manufacturing jobs back to Wichita. America buys more than half of what Bombardier sells. If that’s the market, more of those planes should be built here. Wichita has one of the nation’s top skilled manufacturing workforces and is a leader in aerospace manufacturing. I remember when my classmates’ parents worked at Learjet—later Bombardier—when it employed well over 3,000 people. Bombardier is obligated to grow that footprint in Kansas again.

Four journalists from The Times rigorously reported this story, including interviewing 10 people sent from the United States to Africa and obtaining corroborating information about their experiences. The Times sought comment from across the administration, including the Department of Homeland Security, about the claims of these deportees. This reporting presents a fair, thorough and above all accurate portrayal of the testimonies of those deported to Liberia and Equatorial Guinea.
Another day and another hoax about ICE detention from the @nytimes. The media is clearly desperate for these false allegations to be true. NO ONE is being tortured, denied medical care, or beaten in ICE detention facilities. Make no mistake: this type of GARBAGE being peddled by the media is fueling the more than 1,300% increase in assaults against our officers, who put their lives on the line every day to arrest violent criminal illegal aliens and protect the lives of American citizens.

“Denying access to the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meeting — a forum that undoubtedly serves the global public interest — undermines media freedom and public accountability,” a Bloomberg spokesperson said.

Canadian history/political watchers: as far as you can remember, has there ever been a provincial premier with the US public profile that Doug Ford has?
