Mr. Carney Goes to Washington

Dan Knight- Carney in Washington: A Test of Leadership, Failed

At the center of the meeting? Tariffs. Brutal, unapologetic tariffs. Twenty-five percent on cars, steel, and aluminum. Ten percent on oil. These weren’t symbolic gestures. These were real hits—economic body blows designed to protect American industry and workers. And Carney? He came begging for relief.

He leaned hard on the talking points: Canada is America’s largest customer, the two economies are integrated, half of Canadian-built cars are American in content. Trump didn’t flinch. When asked if he’d lift the tariffs, his response was classic Trump: “No… Just the way it is.” That’s it. No spin. No apology.

The Liberal Puppets Were Played by the Puppet Master!

If you needed any more proof that Mark Carney, and his crew of devious Lieberals, played Canadians BIG TIME, here it is:

But did these chicken dancing, gullible fools have to make it sooooo easy for Carney?!?

Update: The comments in this thread on Carney’s X feed are fascinating. And nitwits like this guy still don’t understand that he has been conned!

Are Woke San Franciscans About to Get Some New Neighbours?

It’s not clear if Trump is just trolling, but this is sure to drive the wokest of the woke absolutely mad:

President Donald Trump is calling for the notorious prison and now historical landmark, Alcatraz, in San Francisco, California, to be rebuilt larger and reopened to house the country’s most ruthless and violent criminals.

Trump made the announcement in a Truth Social post on Sunday evening.

“REBUILD, AND OPEN ALCATRAZ!” the president said. “For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering.

“When we were a more serious Nation, in times past, we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals, and keep them far away from anyone they could harm,” Trump continued, adding that it’s supposed to be this way. “No longer will we tolerate these Serial Offenders who spread filth, bloodshed, and mayhem on our streets.”

On a positive note, given how much Democrats appear to LOVE the most violent rapists & murderers, placing these folks next door to their admirers is a match made in heaven!  Yet, amazingly, they’re not happy with this idea!  This is reminiscent of the ultra wealthy Martha’s Vineyard residents, with plenty of extra space in their mansions, yet ensured the illegal migrants were escorted off their precious island within 36 hours! One might come to the conclusion that “Woke Leftist” actually means “hypocrite”!!!

Finally, Kenji, as SDA’s de facto SF Bay correspondent, would you be open to weaving a red carpet for your new neighbors?

Art of the Troll – Part Deux

If you’re old enough, you fondly remember this scene from This is Spinal Tap.

Trump has quite intentionally said some things about Canada that are certain to raise the TDS levels of Canadians to 11 … or even 13!!!

Art Of The Deal

Protests by workers demanding back wages are spreading across China in a sign of growing discontent among millions suffering the brunt of factory closures, triggered by steep U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports amid an economic downturn.

Across the country – from Hunan province’s Dao county in central China to Sichuan’s Suining city in the southwest and Inner Mongolia’s Tongliao city to the northeast – hundreds of disgruntled workers have taken to the streets to protest about unpaid wages and to challenge unfair dismissals by factories that were forced to shut due to the U.S. tariffs.[…]

Analysts at U.S.-based investment bank Goldman Sachs estimated that at least 16 million jobs, across industries, in China are at risk due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s imposition of a 145% tariff on Chinese imports

Creepy Joe Biden

Not only was the Biden administration keeping files on U.S. citizens, but one of those people was sitting there at the table, a member of the actual cabinet. “And by the way, I’m not gonna say who it is — I’ll leave it up to them — there’s at least one person at this table today who had a dossier in that building of social media posts, to identify them as purveyors of disinformation. We have these dossiers. We are going to be turning those over to these individuals…and they’ll decide whether they want to disclose it or not.

“Was it me or Elon?” Vice President JD Vance asked, causing the room to burst into laughter.

But watch the whole thing.

Breitbart- Trump to Sign Order Ensuring Truckers Speak English

“President Trump believes that English is a non-negotiable safety requirement for professional drivers, as they should be able to read and understand traffic signs, communicate with traffic safety officers, border patrol, agricultural checkpoints, and cargo weight-limit station personnel, and provide and receive feedback and directions in English,” the document notes.

JD Vance in India

This recent speech from JD Vance is well worth a listen.

On a personal note, I am extra delighted every time Vance speaks because I know very well how much his intelligence and eloquence deeply annoys the urban elites on both coasts of America. Unlike them, he was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and yet has proven to be smarter and more accomplished than most of them.

Maryland Man

Choose your hard;

It feels like just yesterday that the left was braying about alleged members of the Venezuelan transnational gang Tren de Aragua being sent to El Salvador’s CECOT mega-prisons as part of their deportation. That’s because, more or less, it was yesterday.

However, over the next few weeks, we might see the same leftists braying a different tune — this time involving the fact that they aren’t being deported via CECOT but might be spending the next few decades in federal prison.

Art Of The Deal

Zerohedge;

To begin the week, we highlighted a potential breaking point emerging in the global economy due to the escalating tariff war: Chinese plastics manufacturers—heavily reliant on U.S. petrochemicals—now face production halts as shipments are increasingly being diverted from the world’s second-largest economy.

Bloomberg cites new ship-tracking data showing that a very large gas carrier hauling U.S. propane has diverted from its initial destination in China to a new port of call in Japan.

The data showed that BW Gemini is hauling 46,000 tons of propane from the U.S. The gas tanker left Phillips 66 Freeport LPG Export Terminal in late March and was initially headed for Yantai, China. However, in recent days, while traversing the Pacific Ocean, the port of call was changed to Imari, Japan. […]

Chinese plastics factories that depend on a gas they mainly import from the U.S. are contending with the prospect of widespread shutdowns as the world’s two largest economies bunker down for a prolonged trade war

The note titled “Chinese Plastics Factories Face Mass Closure As US Ethane Supply Evaporates” focused on ethane, a petrochemical feedstock to produce ethylene, one of the most critical building blocks in modern manufacturing.
