Reporter: “There were 18 Secret Service agents protecting Hunter Biden in South Africa this weekend. Who’s paying for that, and do you plan to revoke his Secret Service protection?”

Sacré bleu! Talk about a Napoleon complex.
Politicians in France are asking for the Statue of Liberty BACK.
Karoline Leavitt chose VIOLENCE:
"I would like to remind France that it's only because of the USA that the French are not speaking German right now. So they should be very grateful to our great country”

Toronto details plan to fight Donald Trump’s tariffs, as mayor appears on CNN: ‘Stop this nonsense’
Mayor Olivia Chow’s plan to counter Donald Trump’s tariffs includes deferring property taxes for struggling businesses, partnering with nearby municipalities and banning U.S. companies from bidding on some city contracts.
Everyman Don Lemon, the openly gay, multimillionaire middle age content creator, who managed to get fired by the seldom-watched CNN, has annotated himself spokesman for black Americans, whom he says are incapable of rationally supporting President Donald Trump.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says he will scrap the carbon levy on industrial emitters as well as the consumer carbon levy.
In video statement released Monday, Mr. Poilievre says if elected to govern in the upcoming election, his government would repeal the entire carbon price law, including the tax on Canadian businesses and industries.
This means there would not be a levy on Canadian steel, aluminum, food production, concrete and other industries, he said.
Ukrainian soldiers fighting in Russia’s Kursk region have described scenes “like a horror movie” as they retreated from the front lines.
The BBC has received extensive accounts from Ukrainian troops, who recount a “catastrophic” withdrawal in the face of heavy fire, and columns of military equipment destroyed and constant attacks from swarms of Russian drones.
The soldiers, who spoke over social media, were given aliases to protect their identity. Some gave accounts of a “collapse” as Ukraine lost Sudzha, the largest town it held.
U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs — first threatened, then postponed, now applied to steel and aluminum — are a hostile act against a friend and ally.
They upend the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement. They violate basic principles of the World Trade Organization and postwar General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, which itself grew out successive U.S. tariff reductions after 1934.
If Washington continues with this obnoxious policy, more Canadian goods will face punitive surcharges at a time when only 30 per cent of U.S. imports are tariffed at all.
Certified TDS.
Canada is not the 51st state. While Trump keeps talking about it, I’m sincerely hoping this is just him trolling, because I sure as heck don’t want Canada to have any say in American politics.
The last thing we need is yet another anti-gun state in the nation, especially when I’m still kind of hoping Denmark buys California.
This is the weirdest timeline ever.
If you don’t like Sankofa Square, how would you feel about Sankofa Street?
A freedom-of-information request, shared with The Toronto Sun by a reader, sheds light on the work done to rename Yonge-Dundas Square. Some of the documents, from late 2023, reveal talk of a non-existent consultation process and a loose approach to facts regarding historical figures such as Henry Dundas and 19th-century activist Lucie Blackburn.
Russia will seek guarantees that Nato will exclude Ukraine from membership and that Ukraine will remain neutral in any peace deal, a Russian deputy foreign minister said.
“We will demand that ironclad security guarantees become part of this agreement,” Alexander Grushko told Russian media outlet Izvestia.
“Part of these guarantees should be the neutral status of Ukraine, the refusal of Nato countries to accept it into the alliance,” he said.
“Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.” This memorable line from The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again” has been used in various ways for over 50 years. As Mark Carney, the newly-elected Liberal leader and now prime minister takes over from Justin Trudeau, we can add this side-by-side comparison to the discussion.
For if you think the former Bank of England and Bank of Canada governor will be vastly different from his predecessor, you’re only fooling yourself.
Donald Trump’s tariff policies remain a lightning rod for debate. Democrats are sounding the alarm, warning of dire economic fallout and painting a picture of looming catastrophe.
Batya Ungar-Sargon, deputy opinion editor of Newsweek, made one of the strongest, most effective cases yet for former President Donald Trump’s tariffs during the latest episode of “Real Time with Bill Maher.” She broke down exactly why these tariffs are necessary, and by the end, she left Bill Maher flustered.
Batya Ungar-Sargon stuns Bill Maher into submission when talking about Trump’s rationale on tariffs:
BUS: “The 70’s the largest share of our GDP was in the middle class. Now the top 20% controls over 50% of the GDP.

Same “Canadian Super Patriots” hating Trumps tariffs shipped your jobs offshore then flooded Canada with cheap foreign labour to ensure you remained impoverished and grateful for the pittance they pay for the rest.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh announced Sunday his party would cancel Canada’s contract to buy U.S.-built F-35s and look for companies to build fighter jets in Canada — a proposal that some defence experts say comes with steep costs.
“Purchasing from the [United] States at this time is not in our national security interest,” Singh told reporters in Iqaluit just days after Defence Minister Bill Blair said Canada is reconsidering its F-35 purchase amid tensions with Washington.
Three months into his second term, President Trump hit the highest approval rating he’s ever had as commander-in-chief — while more Americans say the country is on the right track than at any point since 2004, a new poll found.
That’s the good news, according to an NBC News Poll released Sunday
