Aaron Gunn: If the federal government truly believes in the private property rights of Canadians, they should probably stop opening every public meeting by proclaiming the gathering on the โ€œunceded territoryโ€ of this or that First Nation.
Doing so reinforces the radical and dangerous legal concept that most Canadians live on โ€œstolen landโ€. This is Canada. One country. For all Canadians.

Chiefs from four First Nations communities are urging the public to please approach Aaron Gunn with no caution whatsoever. He is completely harmless, though momentarily unsettled by the alarming possibility that someone might acknowledge the land before a meeting.
Yesterday on social media, the MP appeared to crash out and demand to speak to the manager of land acknowledgements, a position that observers confirm does not exist.
Chiefs whose territories make up the riding had two words for the MP - Chillax, Bud. 
Land acknowledgements have never seized private property, cancelled a mortgage, repossessed a pickup truck, or altered a single title deed anywhere in Canada.
They are simply people recognizing the history of the place where they are standing.
No one is going anywhere. Canada will survive the brief moment of honesty.
Until then, Chiefs across the region continue to reassure the public that land acknowledgements have not, to date, resulted in any land back.

Trump: "They knocked out 54 ships in two days. I got mad at my people. I said, 'Why the hell did we kill them? Why didn't we just capture them and use them in our Navy?' They said they wouldn't have qualified for that. One of my generals said, 'Sir, it's a lot more fun doing it this way.'"

So now the Regime wants to lock up homeless veterans because they are homeless.
Many are homeless because they don't trust the government. This will cause veterans to lash out against the officials who try to lock up these veterans.

It's much more that voting out Mango Mussolini, it's voting out every single Republican & Democrat in the House and the Senate who has ever supported this criminal regime.

And that includes funding ICE.

Until then...nothing changes.

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet โ€” and watching to see who refuses to wear them.

Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."

So the war mongering guy that's all so keen to send your kids to fight to the death, had his widdle feelings hurt because of what he deemed to be unflattering pictures, and banned press photographers. Pete, the DUI hire, is all mouth and no trousers, all wax and no wick, all bluff and bluster.

Congress should be protecting our right to vote, not ripping it away from working people who have the right to make their voices heard at the ballot box. The Senate must reject this bill.
