Dissension In The Ranks?

47 Art Of The Deal There Goes The Narrative Trump 28 Comments

If you take a gander at the conversations on Twitter today, Trump’s apparent endorsement of the H1-B visa program in an interview with Laura Ingraham doesn’t seem to be going over so well. My earlier understanding was that there was going to be a $100,000 fee applied to those visas. Does anyone know what’s happening with that?

More Twitter opinions from Yahoo news.

“This is insane—we are going to lose the mid-terms so badly,” Anthony Sabatini, a vocal pro-Trump county commissioner in Florida with a large online following, wrote on Tuesday on X, where the president’s remarks quickly went viral.

 

Is the New Boss Not Altogether Different than the Old Boss?

A lifelong criticism I have of Leftists is that they refuse to criticize their own side … ever.

While the Trump Administration is clearly a whole lot better than the Biden Administration, there is growing concern that not all members of his cabinet are paddling the boat in the same America First direction. I don’t trust most political pundits, because I feel that many of them are compromised in one way or another. But I do trust Taibbi & Kirn, Megyn Kelly and also David Freiheit and Robert Barnes. Yesterday’s episode of the latter podcast made me very depressed. Watch a few minutes of this segment and share your thoughts. Is Barnes wrong with his analysis of Kash Patel and Pam Bondi? If so, please explain why.

The BBC’s director general Tim Davie and head of news Deborah Turness have resigned after criticism that a Panorama documentary misled viewers by editing a speech by Donald Trump.

Davie, in the job for five years, had faced increasing pressure over a series of controversies and accusations of bias that have dogged the public broadcaster.

The Telegraph published details of a leaked internal BBC memo on Monday that suggested the Panorama programme edited two parts of the US president’s speech together so he appeared to explicitly encourage the Capitol Hill riot of January 2021.

UK political leaders expressed hope the resignations would lead to change, while Trump welcomed the decision.

Seth Mandel: The BBC’s Threat to British Democracy

More: Four years ago, I gathered all the evidence from an antisemitic attack against a bus full of Jewish teens celebrating Chanukah. I spoke to victims, had Hebrew audio verified and translated by linguistic experts, and presented it to the BBC whose reporters and editors decided to completely invent a falsehood that blamed the Jewish teens.

Stephen Green: Trump Just Gave the Finger (Again!) to the Space Establishment

Space fans, rejoice — President Donald Trump just brought back the one man who might actually save NASA. Here’s the best news since last May, when Trump withdrew his nomination of astronaut/billionaire Jared Isaacman to head up NASA: Trump nominated him again. […]

Long story short, Athena was Isaacman’s plan for cutting costs at NASA and restoring the agency’s “mission-first” culture — and getting us back to the Moon, at a price we can afford and before China does. Needless to say, Athena involved upsetting an awful lot of well-anchored apple carts and taking way some gold-plated iron rice bowls.

Exorbitant Dairy Farm Debt: Why Canadians will always face high American tariffs

47 Canadian Taxpayers Federation The Libranos 14 Comments

Ian Cumming, writing in the upcoming edition of Ontario Dairy Farmer magazine, describes in detail the insane debt levels of Canadian dairy farmers, ensuring that Canadian consumers will be on the getting screwed hook forever…and ensuring that Trump’s favourite sore spot – Canada’s protectionist dairy market – will remain in place for just as long.

THE U.S. NORTHEAST Dairy Farm Survey released in July 2025 by CoBank and Farm Credit East (US) had some concerns about the increasing debt per cow in New York and New England. It uses data from the year before and projects it into the present. It took 29 years to go from $2,000 (US) to $3,000 debt per cow, then eight years to go to $4,000 average debt per cow, and then another six years to reach $6,000 debt a cow in 2021. The 2024 survey is at $6,514 debt per cow. Intermediate and long-term debt on these farms averaged $5,526 per cow.

A recently published report in Canada on the Australian dairy industry, based on an average size per farm of over 500 cows and total debt per farm as cited, showed an average $1,522 debt per cow. Australian currency is roughly equal in value to the Canadian dollar. It is a country where cattle housing is not required.

In late August, 2024, in St Liborie, Quebec at the Outdoor Farm Show, three respected bankers standing side by side, lending from Ormstown to St Hyacinthe, were asked by Ontario Farmer what their average debt per cow was, with a cow’s production being 1.5 kilos of quota. They all agreed after a brief internal discussion that their average debt was $55,000 per cow…A 2024 dairy farm management club report, which comes out annually, detailing voluntary herd numbers in eastern Ontario and western Quebec, put their average debt at $33,000 per kilo of quota. Translated to the American level of production, that comes to an average of $52,800/cow debt, no matter the herd size.

@sunlorrie – Only in Ford’s Ontario would Reagan explaining his reasons for imposing tariffs on Japan be transformed into an ad about Reagan defending free trade…

Updates.

Update: To that end, I am pleased to see Ontario’s ad campaign is being suspended…

@LaurieScottPC – See my statement below regarding the announced closure of Holsag’s manufacturing facility in Lindsay, Ontario.

Meanwhile…

Score another hit for Fat Trudeau.

The Ronald Reagan Foundation has just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement, which is FAKE, featuring Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about Tariffs. The ad was for $75,000. They only did this to interfere with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, and other courts. TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A. Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT

If Kamala Harris were proposing that the federal government take ownership stakes in private companies, I can hazard a guess that Republicans would loudly oppose it. What’s going on with a party that has traditionally opposed government ownership of the means of production?

The Trump administration is in talks with the likes of Rigetti Computing (RGTI), IonQ (IONQ) and D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) to take equity stakes in them in exchange for federal funding, according to the Wall Street Journal.

I thought our new PM was just the guy we needed to stand up to the Americans. Oh, well…..

American truck maker Paccar Inc. is laying off 300 more factory workers in Quebec ahead of a 25 per cent import tariff to be imposed by the U.S. next month.

The factory in Sainte-Thérèse, a Montreal suburb, manufactures Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks and relies heavily on revenue from the United States.

How the shutdown enabled the Trump administration’s mass firing spree;

The White House is using the government shutdown as an opportunity to fire thousands of people — furthering the aims of Elon Musk’s DOGE effort earlier this year.

Why it matters: This time the stated focus isn’t efficiency or eliminating fraud. It’s all about shrinking the federal government — and doing away with programs that run counter to the administration’s ideologies.

The big picture: This is the first time an administration has used a shutdown to terminate federal workers.

The firings appear to be in line with the overall goal of bringing the federal government under the president’s control and shrinking its size, as OMB Director Russell Vought laid out in Project 2025.

UN Carbon Tax: Dead In The Water

47 Art Of The Deal UN Watch 20 Comments

John Ʌ Konrad V;

I can’t share the details on how @michaelgwaltz & @SecRubio have, in just a few days, organized the greatest opposition to UN policy since the Cold War and blocked this UN Carbon Tax.

I can say it was a knife fight to the end.

“I’ve been in this industry for 30 years and I’ve never seen anything like it,” one shipping executive told me today. “You just don’t say NO to these guys. It’s unheard of.”

It’s unclear who “these guys” are, but I suspect the European families with shipping investments and net wealth that far exceeds Elon’s.

Absolutely none of the maritime experts I interviewed early this week thought the US could pull this off. Zero. Massive amounts of money, NGO influence, diplomatic threat and media manipulation were behind this… and the American media (except @gCaptain and Fox News) was dead silent.

And yet Trump did it.

“That Trump Truth Social post sent shockwaves through the building,” one UN delegate in London told me. “NOBODY expected it. The Secretary General @IMOSecGen looked like a deer in the headlights this morning.”

Incredible. Simply incredible work by team Trump and a massive blow to the European deep state who planned to use this tax as a slush fund to plug holes in US Aid funding for globalist NGOs.

Promises made. Promises kept!
