Trump Goads '51st State' Canada Ahead Of Hockey Grudge Match

President Donald Trump took a slap shot at Canada on Thursday, again suggesting a US takeover of the northern neighbor as a "fifty first state" and urging the US hockey team to prevail in a closely watched grudge match.

"Trump said a previous commitment -- addressing a gathering of US governors in Washington -- will 'sadly' prevent him from attending the game in person.

'But we will all be watching, and if Governor Trudeau would like to join us, he would be most welcome,' Trump said on his own platform, Truth Social.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt echoed the jib, saying, "We look forward to the United States beating our soon to be 51st state.'"

In the election that President guy said good luck, but we have enough issues over here:

I will do it like no Merkel has done it before.

The old East lurched hard right, but the conservatives will still rule without them in a new ‘Grand Coalition’. The center left took a big hit, with far left and right both growing.

Trump administration will "collapse" in 30 days, says James Carville

The veteran political strategist says the administration is "in the midst of a collapse" and that Democrats need to "just lay back."

"Carville advised Democrats to 'play opossum' for now. "

Just play dead. And then someone said yesterday in an interview: ..with all due respect to Jim Carville, the public already thinks the Democrats are dead.

Trump adviser dismisses report that Canada faces expulsion from Five Eyes, but experts warn of risks

Speculation that Washington could remove Canada from the Five Eyes has circulated recently as the U.S. vowed a succession of tariffs against Canadian imports
www.theglobeandmail.com www.theglobeandmail.com

"Peter Navarro, Mr. Trump’s senior counsellor for trade and manufacturing, has privately proposed expelling Canada from the Five Eyes – which also includes the U.S., Britain, Australia and New Zealand – as a means of increasing pressure on a country that Mr. Trump wants to annex as the '51st state.'"

Let's go back to UKUS circa 1946.
 
Sounds like Turkish bullshit propaganda:


BREAKING: PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan:

All groups must disarm and the PKK should dissolve.

I am making a call for laying down arms, and I take on the historical responsibility of this call.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he puts on a Retaliatory Tariff on the U.S., our Reciprocal Tariff will immediately increase by a like amount!

If you are willing to dish it, you have to take it.
 
“Responding to Mr. Trudeau’s remarks that the tariffs aren’t about drugs, Mr. Navarro accused Canada of allowing Mexican cartels to embed themselves across the country.

‘I think Mr. Trudeau, it would be really useful if he just tones stuff down,’ he said.

He also criticized the Prime Minister for referring to the President as ‘Donald’ during his press conference Tuesday.

‘I watched the conference yesterday with Mr. Trudeau. He’s calling the President dumb. He’s calling him Donald, instead of respectfully the President,’ Mr. Navarro said.”

How about stop calling someone’s PM a governor? Vaffanculo.

DHS has begun performing polygraph tests on employees to find leakers

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and border czar Tom Homan have blamed lower-than-expected ICE arrest numbers on recent leaks about planned operations.
www.nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com

“Border czar Tom Homan and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem have blamed lower-than-expected ICE arrest numbers on recent leaks revealing the cities where it planned to conduct operations.”

I don’t think they need to bother with a polygraph for Dropbear if they find this forum.
