For all Atlantic Bubblers - if you’ve never been to the west coast of Newfoundland, go now for breathtaking scenery, wonderful people, no crowds, & local businesses who can really use our support. The Guy & I went in July. Heaven! Some pix follow, to whet your appetite.
Boing, boing, boing. I leave it to the reader to determine whether that is the sound of the bouncy castles, or the sound of the irrational ideas pinging in the Klown Konvoyers’ brains. #cdnpoli
"jUsT BoUnCeY CaStLeS!"
Absolutely 💯 accurate.
There is a reason why many sexual assault victims go the civil route rather than the criminal route.
So the “freedom convoy” crowd is upset because a business exercised its freedom to choose who it will - and won’t - serve. 🤷♂️ @echipiuk
Well, I wasn’t expecting this, @RBC. Welcome to Canada, where tyranny has great customer service.
Freedom convoy supporters think Tamara Lich is Canada’s Rosa Parks. Rosa wasn’t trying to storm Parliament in a semi with a vape pen for the right to cough on people at a Costco. -ND
The Guy and I are having a glorious time @sproul_colin ‘s lake cabin. Tonight’s supper: snow crab, fresh-picked beans, homemade bread, Tennycape wine from @AvondaleSky
MARCO RUBIO: "Moscow's intent was to harm the Clinton campaign, tarnish an expected Clinton presidential administration, help the Trump campaign after Trump became the presumptive nominee, and undermine the U.S. democratic process."
A reminder of what Rubio's report said. It wasn't just that Russia interfered. It was also that Putin ordered it, and that it was to help Trump.
“Lessons from Cats for Surviving Fascism” is the #1 hardcover nonfiction book according to the Sonoma Index-Tribune. If you’re unfamiliar with the book, it’s a guide to navigating the rise of authoritarian nonsense… with the aloof, unbothered brilliance of a cat.
On July 24, 1967, French President Charles de Gaulle visited Expo 67 in Montreal. He later gave an address to a crowd from a balcony at Montreal's City Hall. There, he said the words "Vive le Québec libre !" And Canadian history changed forever. This is the story. 🧵 1/8
Imagine creating a situation so bad even American military contractors are disgusted.
New from me: Americans hired to put a non-Israel face on Netanyahu's dystopian aid schemes might end up bringing about the collapse of the whole thing. Another one comes forward, disgusted and horrified with what he saw there: responsiblestatecraft.org/us-contractors…
Gee. Seems like the kind of story a serious MSM would want to investigate. Paging a serious MSM.
This is a very serious revelation. People have been wondering who has been bankrolling Alberta separatists. It looks like there’s a MAGA connection. Trump officials are said to have promised $500 million to help transition Alberta to the 51st state. desmog.com/2025/07/22/tru…
No, the clownvoy protest was not "peaceful." Resist the revisionism. pressprogress.ca/it-was-violent…
This was a few days into convoy…
This is the audio landscape in a residential area of downtown Ottawa this morning.
I sense a pattern here …
Trump is a genius but you can't see his grades Trump is healthy but you can't see his medical reports Trump is honest but you can't see his tax returns Trump is innocent but you can't see the Epstein Files

Shutting down the United States House of Representatives to avoid a vote on the Epstein matter should cause everyone to recalibrate their conspiracy meter from like a 6 out of 10 to 8.5 out of 10.
I do want to apologize for dwelling on my fears a Trump second term could be dangerously authoritarian. But is it ok now to say a word about the president of the United States accusing a predecessor of treason? Or would that be a distraction from kitchen table issues? 🤯
Trump: “It's time to go after people. Obama's been caught directly…He's guilty. This was treason.”
And he's also very afraid he'll lose and Battle River-Crowfoot. He didn't plan for a groundswell of support for an independent candidate.
You knew he had to come out and support Lich and Barber. The convoy is his identity.
