What the ... weird?!?!?

 I don't know what is wrong with the mainstream ... or controlling ... or dominant .. or whatever .. democrats. When Tim Walz stared calling the Republicans and MAGA weird it resonated with people. They are weird. 

Then the moronic arm of the party told them to stop it. Stop attacking MAGA. Stop resisting. Stop telling the assholes what they are.

Now, fuck yeah, they are weird, They need to be called on it.

While after letting this sit for a while it has gone for weird to fucking super fascist. Or as one might sing "Super  calla Fascistalistic what the MAGAdouchist?

What the ... slide?!?!?

 The US slides into ... god damn what do you call it? Anarchy? Tyranny? Fuckery? A combination? Holy fuck. in my wildest nightmares I never saw this coming.

Trump is now posting on Truth Social calling for military tribunals to look at Obama. He is pushing for his Gestapo, oops I mean ICE to deport people even if they don't deserve it. He is having Judiciary and Political officials arrested. He is spewing lie after lie about, well, everything. He even tried to lie and take credit for India and Pakistan stepping down from war. Pissing them off. He is trashing Bruce Springsteen. Hell the Red States are getting rid of child labour laws!

It was bad enough in his first term that Neo Nazis felt comfortable coming out. It is so much worse now.\

Through it all MAGA supports him. The MAGGOTs in Congress and the Senate blindly support him.  Even when his policies are fucking them over the MAGGOTs say "Thank you sir, may I have another?" 

I am thankful that I am Canadian and we have a leader that will do his best to protect us from the insanity that is Donald Trump. Canada needs to divest itself of ties to USA as quickly as it can. Sadly, the USA can't be trusted as an ally again. An arms length friend? Ok. A trustworthy friend? Nope. Even if Trump is ousted and a better crew comes in there is always the threat that the morons will take over again. People are just that stupid. 

What the .... slogan?

 Pierre Poilievre has repeatedly said Carney has nothing but slogans. Really PP? You want to go that route? 

Here are some of the slogans PP has used and is using:

Canada Is Broken (This was his key phrase before switching to Canada First.)

Canada First (A slogan that has been adopted by a Proud Boys group. And sounds eerily like Trump's America First slogan. )

Axe The Tax (He was still spouting this slogan AFTER Carney axed the consumer side of the carbon tax.)

Build The Homes

Fix The Budget

Stop the Crime

Bring It Home

Stop The Drugs (Which was his response to Trump's BS about fentanyl going into the US from Canada.)

You get the idea. If Carney has nothing but slogans what does PP and the Conservative Party of Canada have? PP is slow to adapt to the changing political environment which is not a good thing. A lot of slogans, and not much else to show for it. 

Holy Shit Rogan!

 There is nothing I can say in light of current events that Kyle Kulinski has not said. Take your head out of your ass Joe Rogan, listen to this podcast, and do what is right.

Maple Maga

 Why is Pierre Poilievre often called Maple Maga or Trump Lite? A lot of what he says mirrors, if not directly parrots, shit Trump says and does.

Now PP and the CPC uses the "Canada First" slogan. Before that he went on about how broken Canada is. Sound familiar? America First?

When Donald started his BS with Canada, calling us the 51st State and disparaging our PM by calling him Governor, PP was fairly quiet. Mind you he did use Trumpian slogans at his rallies. While Trump was using the fake excuse of drugs coming into the US from Canada the slogan in front of the podium every time PP spoke was "Stop The Drugs".  While everyone else in Canada (except the twit in Alberta) was preparing to deal with Trump, PP was still focusing on other things, using Trumpian slogans.

He uses "woke" as an all-purpose pejorative and says he is on the side of "common sense." 

He is not a fan of the media. The CBC is a huge target of his and he wants to defund them. Even when dealing with the press at rallies and events he restricts them. Only approved media are allowed. Only 4 reporters can ask questions, and they only have 1 they can ask with no follow up. The questions are submitted beforehand. 

He embraced the so called "Freedom Convoy" morons who occupied Ottawa. PP showed up with coffee and donuts for them and marched in solidarity with them.

He uses "woke" as an all-purpose pejorative and says he is on the side of "common sense."

He has vowed to defeat the "gatekeepers" who are apparently standing in the way of Canadians prospering. 

Instead of making laws that would pass Constitutional muster he has vowed to invoke the notwithstanding clause to override judicial rulings against his attempts to impose harsher sentences on those convicted of committing crimes. Who needs Due Process and oversight?

He previously promised to withhold federal funding from universities that do not adequately uphold freedom of speech. HIS definition of freedom of speech.

PP talked about his big beautiful income tax cuts during a rally the other day. Trump has his big beautiful bill he wants to pass to make his tax cuts permanent. Tax cuts for the wealthy.

I don't know about you but I do see more than a little Trump and MAGA in Poilievre.

Pierre Poilievre's Voting Record

 I have been remiss in talking about Canadian politics. The insanity south of the border takes the spotlight more often than not. When I see what Pierre Poilievre says and does I can see reflections of Trump and MAGA in him, and the Conservative Party of Canada. PP's voting record alone should give a person pause when wondering if they should support him. 

Poilievre:

Voted against raising the minimum wage 

Voted against the First Home Savings Account program

Voted against $10-a-day childcare

Voted against children’s food programs at school 

Voted against the child benefit

Voted against dental care for kids

Voted against Covid relief

Voted against middle-class tax cuts

Voted against the Old Age Security Supplement 

Voted against the Guaranteed Income Supplement 

Voted to ban abortions

Voted against housing initiatives 

Voted to raise the retirement age

Voted for scabs

The ONLY Bill Poilievre has ever introduced to Parliament (1 of 7 in 20 years as an MP) that passed was called The Fair Elections Act.  The title alone has me hearing Morgan Freeman's voice saying "It wasn't that fair." It exempted fundraising expenses from campaign spending limits, disenfranchised voters and increased partisanship by allowing incumbents control of the nominations for polling supervisors. A lot of what it did was undone when the Harper Government was ousted. 

Looking at his record it isn't that surprising he is often called Maple Mage.

What the ... really Joe?

 NOW Joe Rogan is talking about Due Process. Talking about how lumping people into groups is bad. Holy shit Joe, this IS HAPPENING and people have been talking about it while you have been coddling Trumps ball sack. You are part of the problem Joe. 

You voted for Trump and encouraged him even though if you had a bit of common sense you would seen where he was headed. You gave air time, and coddled the sacks, of him, his VP, Elon, and the Oligarchs, even though you SHOULD have been able to see where they were headed. Where was Jamie?

You used to be against the assholes like Trump, Vance, Musk and all their ilk. I don't know what happened to you, but damn you sold out. Did covid really break your brain? 

Trump and his regime have been trampling on due process since he was elected. Yet you  just started noticing it? They have trampled on peoples rights and sent them to fucking concentration camps in El Salvador. And you JUST started noticing it? Innocent people are in fucking concentrations camps and Trump and his cronies are LYING about it and you JUST started to notice? Seriously? Fuck you Joe.

Part of me hopes this is a return of the Old Joe. However, based on who he has become I have my doubts. It seems more like a ploy to try and get his audience back since he has lost his Number 1 Podcast status. His railing against the Trump government over Due Process seems a tad contrived considering things he said since the deportation's and sending people to a concentration camp started. Rogan helped Trump get elected. He could pick up his fucking phone and actually talk to Donald. Like I said, his railing against this now seems contrived.

I used to LOVE Joe Rogan's podcasts. He introduced me to comedians, writers, and artists I would never had heard of. Since covid he has become a bizarre, bitter, asshole. One that propagates the bizarre despite reality. I still watch some of his old podcasts because they were good and informative. Not the batshit he has promoted the last few years.

I guess what I am saying is ... Joe, you disappoint me and have for a while. I used to expect better from you. I don't anymore. It is hard to say if I ever will.
