  2. I was in northern Michigan in September, definitely Trump country and should stay that way.

  3. 70% of my X/Twitter news feed is anti Trudeau this evening. Virtually every Canadian I’ve followed in the past 10 years on that site has posted multiple times on this topic of the Montreal riots, Trudeau spending the evening at a young teens pop concert, with what appears to be 50 friendship bracelets on his wrist.
    Almost all of them calling for The Turd™ to resign. Pierre P of the Conservatives outlined a solid case against The Turd™

    1. Then The Turd™ posted on how anti semitism isn’t acceptable, while his people are rioting, smashing windows, destroying private and public property are his people, while he’s invited to Canada +5k more potential terrorists from terrorist central in gaza.

      The police arrested 3 people? (the rest of this sentence can’t be entered and make it past the filter, I asked with different words if maybe the Montreal Police are on controlled substances)

      The Jerusalem Post saw things differently from the Canadian legacy MSM, they seem to be on the same side as the #Libranos who turned the ship of Jewish people fleeing Europe away from Canada in WW2, written about in the book, “None is too Many” …

      Every day, tier 2 canada finds a new way to enrage thinking people, and fall onto the wrong side of history.

      1. Canada is a seriously broken country populated by low IQ liberal socialists and welfare immigrants.

    1. I keep asking people to tell me how they are going to make wind turbines and solar panels without coal, oil and gas. In fact I have been asking just how they would build any electrical generating equipment without coal, oil and gas.
      It is quite impossible don’t you know.

      1. The foundation of a wind turbine is made from concrete (a major source of CO2 emissions). The base is made of tubular steel (think smelter). The blades are made of mostly fiberglass. To make fiberglass you take glass fragments and heat them until they are molten (in a furnace). That turbine has to spin for about 16 years just to give back the CO2 it took to manufacture it. But hey, it’s “free energy”.

        1. Yes. Everything associated with them requires fossil fuels.
          CO2 is not the problem, very stupid people are.

        2. … and the lifetime of the blades is estimated to be only about 15 years, so go figure out that logic.

          And to make matters even worse, if that’s even possible, is that when the blades reaches their end-of-life, they can’t be recycled. They have to be buried, and so the cherry on top is that you have to manufacture new blades to replace the old ones.

    1. Are the Indians growing it or.just smuggling cigarettes in from China?

      I tried growing tobacco a few years ago…
      It’s easy to grow, but there’s a lot more to it.
      Need to start with the right varieties.
      Then there’s drying, curing, aging for months if not years… Nearly impossible to replicate commercial cigarettes on a small scale. Maybe with years of practice.
      I ended up with some ridiculously strong pipe tobacco, throat shredding, enough nicotine to make my eyeballs vibrate.
      unsmokable. Better just to quit.

      1. The only times I bought black market cigs they were from Russia.

        I also wonder if there are any low tax US states that they can be sourced from.

        1. I used to get cartons from Moldova. 15 years ago. USPS cracked down, confiscated my last order, left a tax bill and threatening letter.
          North Dakota is relatively cheap- $8 a pack compared to $10. Customs or border patrol would be a problem.
          The res is hit or miss.

          2. I was on the rez in Thunder Bay Ontario this summer. Smoke shops everywhere, and ‘cheap’ gas. Vehicles lined up 10 deep. The proles are voting with their feet. Avoiding the unconscionable tax.

            I smoked cigars (the real ones not those dog shit varieties) for years. Loved ’em. Then one day I decided to lay them down. Today I agree with Castro on this one thing, “Cigars are best given to your enemies.”

          3. Steakman, I’m curious. How is that possible considering how the government loves to impose steep sin taxes.

    2. The only thing fueling crime is the gov’t taxing tobacco so hard that people turned to a grey market.

  12. The Trumpster has picked his cabinet – at least for the top chairs. A lot of testosterone in that bunch. A nice bevy of good looking girls. I gotta hand it to him he’s a sucker for the turn of an ankle but then again so am I…

    What’s going to happen when he calls a meeting with those Type A personalities , even the girls got balls! Ay carumba. I think he’s partially figured out the beltway. He squandered his first term not knowing the ‘rules of Washington’. Maybe this group of loyalists can get some things done but it won’t be easy. Hopefully they can get along.

  14. As the COP29 summit ends, the delegates have pledged $300 billion to fight climate change.

    The developing countries were looking for $1.3 trillion. But as Canada’s Catherine Mckenna (remember her?) says, “we’re not even sure if that money (the $300 billion) is going to flow”. They are now looking to the private sector for help.

    Over 55,000 people attended the climate conference with about 1,750 lobbyists from the fossil fuel industry. I bet the organizers of the conference have seriously sore thumbs from counting all that conference money.
