“We do a little thing called ‘trolling'” ~ Donald J Trump

Justin from Canada will never resign, he doesn’t have the humility needed to abdicate power in the face of overwhelming defeat; he’s genuinely pathological and narcissistic.  Instead, Trudeau will force Canadians to remove him from power. That way he can proclaim his victimhood.  Watch, you will see.

Center-left Canadians (Ford) and Far-Left Canadians (Trudeau) genuinely believe that President Trump might annex Canada in a hostile takeover. They at least seriously pretend to their domestic audience that this reality is entirely possible.

The NATO war in Ukraine is essentially lost. Russia holds the strongest position against Kyiv and its supporters. President Donald Trump is set to take office in the USA raising new questions over Europeans’ trade relations, elimination of the Marshal Plan, and EU spending on their own common defense. Then add the slow-motion collapse of Trudeau’s Canadian government, and consider…

…Hungary has rebuked the Brussels control agenda. Georgia has rejected NATO and the EU’s manipulation. The government of France, essentially Germany’s most powerful partner leading the European Union, collapsed on a few short weeks ago. And now Germany, Europe’s largest economy, will be in the hands of a caretaker government until they can organize elections early next year.

When the control mechanisms of the totalitarian left fail, we see the machinery tremoring slowly, slowly, until suddenly, all at once it freezes.

GERMANY – The German government collapsed on Monday as Chancellor Olaf Scholz lost a confidence vote in Parliament, deepening a crisis of leadership across Europe at a time of mounting economic and security challenges.

[…] On Monday, German lawmakers voted to dissolve the existing government by a vote of 394 to 207, with 116 abstaining.

Coming just nine months before parliamentary elections had been scheduled to happen, the vote was an extraordinary moment for Germany. The elections, now expected on Feb. 23, will be only the fourth snap election in the 75 years since the modern state was founded. The moment reflects a new era of more fractious and unstable politics in a country long known for durable coalitions built on plodding consensus.

Mr. Scholz had little choice but to take the unusual step of calling for the confidence vote after his three-party coalition splintered in November, ending months of bitter internal squabbling and leaving him without a parliamentary majority to pass laws or a budget.

Those who followed the details of the U.S, Mexico and Canada trade agreement, can easily see how Chrystia Freeland was never going to be the right person for Canada to have as Finance Minister while they attempt to navigate President Trump’s economic policy again.

In fact, I would not be surprised if someone in Mar-a-Lago told Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau he needed to ice her out if Trudeau wanted to stand a chance of a relationship with Donald Trump. As many people noted during her gleeful confiscation of funds from the trucker protests, Deputy Prime Minister/Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is a conniving, scheming, and all-around nasty piece of work.

In a posture akin to that sideways stare from Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction (“I’m not going to be ignored, Justin”) today turned some of that internal spite toward her boss, Justin Trudeau.

As noted by the New York Times, “Ms. Freeland, who has helped steer the Trudeau government through many challenges, had been playing a prominent role in forming Canada’s response to the incoming Trump administration, leading a team of government officials preparing for the transition.”  And then there’s the part of her letter which says, “on Friday you told me you no longer wanted me to serve as your finance minister.”

Yep, apparently the Canadian Trade Team walking toward Team America-First just wasn’t going to work again. Or, put more accurately, no one around Trump-47 has time for the childish nonsense that Freeland brings with her everywhere. lolol

During a press conference to announce that Softbank will be investing $100 billion into U.S. manufacturing, tech and overall emerging technology in the USA, President Trump took dozens of questions.

Standing beside SoftBank’s chief executive, Masayoshi Son, at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Mr. Trump announced the anticipated investment likely to create 100,000 jobs.  Mr. Son, 67, started SoftBank in Tokyo in 1981 and has built it into one of the largest technology investors in the world. His firm is known for high-profile wins and losses, and Mr. Son — commonly known as Masa — is known to grab headlines with both fund-raising and investments.

Following the announcement with Mr Son, President Trump took questions.  WATCH:

President Trump politely asked the outgoing Biden administration for two requests:

(1) Stop selling the steel and rebar border wall hardware that President Trump previously purchased.  Currently the Biden administration is selling the border wall cheap to anyone who wants to purchase.  It’s a ridiculous waste of money.

(2) Stop telling federal workers they will not have to return to their offices.  The Trump administration plans to require all federal employees to return to offices and report for work as assigned.  There are estimates that only 1% of federal workers actually go to a workplace, the rest work from home.

President Trump was asked today during a lengthy press availability about the mystery of the drones appearing above New Jersey and New York.

As President Trump noted in his response, the government, the defense department, the White House and the outgoing President know exactly what is going on, yet they choose to keep the issue subjected to some mystery.  “Something strange is going on,” Trump notes.  WATCH:

.

Common sense will tell you; President Trump is correct.  This is only a mystery for the ordinary American person.  The government know exactly what these “mysterious drones” are, and what their purpose is.

Senator Thom Tillis appears to have been granted a larger slice of the lobbyist money from Thune and McConnell because he certainly is taking up a position next to Joni Ernst in strategic opposition to President Donald Trump.

The level of passive aggressive threat-speak within Tillis’ very carefully selected wording is quite concerning.  “President Trump enjoyed a great deal of Republican support in his first term,” Tillis notes.  “But if people want to play the outside [pressure] game, they run a lot of risk,” he continues. “Four votes is all it’s going to take to kill a nomination here, so they should take pause,” Tillis reminds everyone.

Senator Tillis from North Carolina represents the aloof mindset of the Senate at large, and the detached mindset of the Republicans in the senate specifically.

The republicans in North Carolina in 2024 are highlighting just how similar they are to the republicans in Georgia, circa 2020.

“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”

“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Senator Adam Schiff, a DC swamp creature of incredible corruption and manipulative intent, appears with ABC George Stephanopoulos who just agreed to settle a lawsuit by paying Donald Trump $15 million, and together they commiserate about the best way for the Deep State and media to align in resistance to President Trump.

While it can be annoying to watch the professional gaslighting of Adam Schiff, it is also possible to see what angles he will take in his next attack vector simply by listening to where his priorities are focused.  As the conversation moves to DNI nominee Tulsi Gabbard (03:05), you see the gaze of Schiff intensify in preparation to defend the Intelligence Community.  WATCH:

.

Schiff is very concerned about Tulsi Gabbard being in the same office space as the “six ways from Sunday” group. Very concerned.

So many people have seemingly forgotten that Mitt Romney was the 2012 Republican presidential nominee.  He was crushed by Barack Obama despite record turnout by republican voters who held their nose, yet again, one last time and voted for the last of the GOP ‘next in line’ crew.

As he exits a career in politics, Mitt Romney reflects upon his professional legacy of ‘lightly held stances’ and expert level graciousness in losing; he’s had lots of practice.  As Mitt Romney concedes the Republican party to the MAGA movement, this is somewhat of a reflective moment.  WATCH:
