Nobody wants to hear this, but this is the best possible outcome for Republicans in 2028.
Ernie Waldner retweeted
My biggest concern is that if there is a clean sweep by Democrats of the House, Senate and Presidency in 2028, they will:
1. Make DC and Puerto Rico states to gain a strong majority in the Senate.
2. Open the borders and legalize everyone living in America illegally to cement a permanent majority.
3. Increase the size of the Supreme Court to gain an immediate majority.
This would result in America becoming a permanent one-party state and the end of democracy in any meaningful sense of the word.
All that is needed to ensure this doesn’t happen is 51 Republican senators in 2029. That is why you should vote for Republican senators this election. Other reasons are irrelevant compared to this one.

Mom and dad aren't mad, they’re just disappointed that you experimented with separation.

Dear Alberta,
We know you’ve felt alienated by our coverage. Last week we even tossed in a token Albertan. Tonight, as you vote on your own future, four Easterners will explain what it all really means for you—because we can.
We’ll call it a test of “cooperative federalism.” We’ll note that leverage is detestable (except from Quebec). We’ll observe that only some of you truly want separation, so the rest of your anger must be irrational. We’ll remind you the Premier is just saving her job and that referendums settle nothing. Your actual grievances will be acknowledged, then reframed as failure to understand the federation.
It will never be about Eastern superiority or self-righteousness. But thank you for the tax dollars and resources that fund our $1.5 billion budget.
Love,
Brodie Fenlon

A BIG THANK YOU to our legendary friend, @ElonMusk, for his incredible generosity in giving SpaceX Stock to millions of American children through TRUMP ACCOUNTS! This is exactly what was envisioned when we created TRUMP ACCOUNTS — Bringing together the GREAT PRIVATE SECTOR, Elon and so many more, to invest in our children, by far our greatest and most important asset, and give every American Child a piece of the American Dream. Thank you Elon! President DONALD J. TRUMP

To be demoralized is to have your sense of reality so inverted that you fail to recognize you are in a state of war, mistake those attacking you for victims, and willingly assist them in undermining your own society while believing you are doing something good.

WTF are you talking about, The Economist?
Mark Carney is a career technocrat who seems to impress the international establishment far more than he impresses me.
Canada has serious problems with productivity, investment, affordability and economic competitiveness. We just lost roughly 110,000 jobs in August and September. Yet we’re supposed to believe Carney is some sort of model for the rest of the world?
I’ve spent most of my life running businesses. I learned long ago that credentials, polished speeches and grand promises mean very little without results.
Carney may know how to impress the Davos crowd, but Canadians need a functioning economy, productive investment and rising living standards.
Smaller countries should certainly learn from Canada. They should learn what happens when governments put too much faith in technocrats and too little faith in the people who actually create wealth.
Stop celebrating the resume. Start measuring the results. FFS.
Smaller countries need to prepare for a dangerous world. They should look to Canada (and its prime minister) for an answer on what to do bit.ly/4zwKfVg

Carney says Canada should resume an increase in immigration. At the same time, India’s High Commissioner says Canada needs 15 million workers over the next decade.
Looks like Canada is doomed.

The diversity, inclusion, and equity cult that has taken over Canadian academia does not worry this idiot.
The land acknowledgements do not worry this idiot.
The transgender activism wherein Canadians no longer are clear about what constitutes a man or a woman does not worry her.
The crumbling healthcare system does not worry her.
The indigenization and decolonization of Canadian science does not worry her.
The astounding increase of Islamic immigration does not worry her because Canadian values are apparently Islamic values (as stated by @MarkJCarney).
The parasitic taxation whereby the most productive members of Canadian society pay roughly 70% of their income (once all taxes are combined) does not worry her.
The REAL threat according to this nasty lobotomized feminist is the US, Trump, Musk, and yours truly.
Imagine that this imbecile "journalist" @anniedufour99 thinking that the US is the great enemy of Canada. Not the astounding parasitic suicidal empathy that has led to policies placing Canada in grave existential danger (e.g., the unfettered open border immigration policies).

They've run this country since November 2015.
Housing, wages, investment, trade.
All of it happened on their watch.
6 in 10 working Canadians can't make ends meet each month.
A 50 per cent American tariff landed in August after talks fell apart.
And their answer is still that the opposition is the problem.
After 11 years, every problem is theirs.

Canada’s first F-35 flew Wednesday from Texas, the first new Canadian-marked fighter in 44 years. Ottawa said little.
That same day, Mark Carney told the NYT Canada prepared for U.S. military action.
Probably the stupidest day in Canadian politics in 44 years.

I just can't read any more Carney erotica from this guy.

This is how you know Bessent was spot-on.
Scott Bessent’s comments about Canada today were arrogant, demeaning and contemptuous. The gratuitous mocking of one of America’s largest customers and closest allies was out of line. Serious disagreements deserve serious statesmanship — not cheap insults. cbc.ca/news/politics/bessent…
