Trump's war with the White House press corps continued

 

LOL -- The White House pool is boycotting Trump, but Real America's Voice is trying to fill in the gap. Unfortunately they haven't yet figured out how microphones work so Trump is still yelling into the void.

Yeah, that'll happen for sure...

LMAO -- White House official Peter Navarro calls on Trump administration to boycott Fox News, citing the network's firing of Maria Bartiromo

Around midnight, a judge ruled that CNN, MSNOW and Politico should get their press access back. I wonder if Trump will appeal?

Trump still wants to put his name on everything all over Washington

There’s no way in hell Trump should be allowed to slap his name on anything else, let alone Ford’s Theatre. But I have to admit, there’s something darkly hilarious about him adding his name to the place where an American president was assassinated. The irony practically writes itself.

Panicking now about the high price of diesel

The government is asking Republican men to donate their Peter Millar polos and Lululemon slim-stretch chinos so they can convert the polyester back into petroleum.

The foul treatment of immigrants is finally getting publicized

to be clear, the admin is alleged to have deported AT LEAST 25,447 individuals TO COUNTRIES THAT ARE NOT THEIR OWN with, evidently, ZERO PROTECTIONS. this is a scandal and crime of historic proportions.

Trump is still trying to smear Canada to encourage the Alberta separatists....

U.S. President Donald Trump claims Canada is “destroying itself” by allowing millions of people into the country “essentially unchecked and unvetted.” globalnews.ca/news/1207009...

Dispatches from the Canada-US Trade War

The New York Times interviews PM Carney.

The social media posts about the interview all focused on how Carney said he has prepared for an US military invasion:

In an interview with The New York Times published Wednesday, Carney described the prospect of an invasion as an “extreme tail risk,” but that it would be “irresponsible” not to prepare.

PM Carney interviewed in New York Times is asked if Canada has prepped for military threat: “You have a responsibility in these roles to look at extreme tail risk. That’s just risk management. It would be irresponsible not to prepare." And they wonder why we don't buy their booze.

But he also said lots of other things [gift link]

...In a wide-ranging interview... Mr. Carney described in meticulous detail how he was systematically reducing Canada’s reliance on the United States for key techy — from space satellites to fighter jets — in an effort to make his country far less vulnerable to American threats. He outlined a plan to diversify Canada’s relationships and suppliers, and said that even with a different future president “we will be a better partner for the U.S. because of what we are doing.”...

Moving on

I've officially made it - getting a shout out in the latest Iran Lego video trolling of Trump. That's almost up there with being officially banned by Vladimir Putin or having Patti Smith let me use People Have the Power for my 2017 leadership campaign. What a strange world. youtu.be/HmI2VE-IoV8?...

Good news about the Prince Rupert port

As we work to reduce our reliance on the U.S. and diversify trade, the Port of Prince Rupert is helping connect B.C. to new global markets every day. The Canada-B.C. Cooperative Prosperity Agreement is unlocking the projects needed to drive that growth.

And about the Greenland agreement

Anita Anand says Arctic sovereignty will be central to Canada’s UN message after the new U.S.-Denmark-Greenland security deal. Good. Allies can share security without giving up sovereignty. 🇨🇦 🔗 Source: globalnews.ca/video/120700... ❤️🇪🇺🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🇪🇺❤️ ❤️🇪🇺🇨🇦VIVE LE CANADA🇨🇦🇪🇺❤️

Also at the UN, this was funny too:

PM Carney: "Next spring, we will welcome the world to Halifax for the Our Ocean Conference. Canada's Special Envoy is here. Diana, let me make sure I get the last name right, Fox Carney." ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️ ❤️🍁🇨🇦VIVE LE CANADA🇨🇦🍁❤️

Today's Fuck Around and Find Out moment - a week ago, a group of Michigan tourists were flying to Halifax and they thought it would be so very very funny to post a photo on Facebook of them wearing "Lake America" shirts, just to show those stupid Canucks who's really in charge now. Well, almost immediately, their photos were posted all over Halifax, social media was ripping them to pieces, and finally they blamed AI for the photo. Too late!




Finally, on a side note, I guess Wednesday was supposed to be Bluebird of Happiness Day. But it wasn't, for me.

 

A tough day for Toronto 😔 Last season’s AL pennant winners are out of postseason contention after a 4-2 loss in Game 1 of the doubleheader in Baltimore.
