Trump is adding anti-trans provisions to SAVE America Act Trump appears to be using culture-war issues, which are popular among Republican voters, to increase the pressure on Republican lawmakers to back the bill.

The White House confirmed that Trump is pressing Congress to add new provisions targeting transgender people to the SAVE America Act β€” a sweeping anti-voting bill that could disenfranchise millions.

If the Senate were to comply, the measure would have to return to the House for another vote.

Canada Is at War ... With the United States Pete Hegseth took time out from the chaos of the Iran war to make an announcement that Donald Trump has renamed the region from Mexico to Greenland as β€œGreater North America.”

For those unaware of the Canadian perspective, this is but one of the many reasons why Canadians are boycotting the US: Hegseth, Hoekstra, Trump - no respect for what is (was) America's oldest and best ally.

On Hegseth naming Mexico, to Canada, to Greenland, Greater North America, How about this. We keep the map exactly the way it is and instead we rename only the USA "Lesser North America". If USA citizens find that comment insulting, then now you know how the rest of us non-US citizens feel.

Trump’s USA is hostile to UK and yet we allow more and more of their fighter jets to operate from UK bases. So, when Trump decides UK might be interesting real estate alongside Gaza, Iran, Greenland, Canada, Cuba etc etc, what then? Look out for Trump’s billionaire buddies placing bets on a date.

Trump, Netanyahu and Putin are the the architects of the new world disorder.

Europe, UK, Canada, and RoW must now focus on re architecting the new-world democratic order.

When certain countries do as they like regardless of Int law, it leaves middle earth with no choice but ti regroup!

Canada’s efforts to protect 30 per cent of its land and inland water by 2030 are at stake as the government has yet to renew funding running out this month for a crucial nature program, say several groups that rely on that cash.

Royal Canadian Air Force Major Discovered on White Supremacist Dating Site The Canadian Anti-Hate Network has identified over 190 Canadian users of a white supremacist dating website, including a Royal Canadian Air Force Major.

Late last year, a white supremacist dating platform was hacked and its users leaked. One of those users is Royal Canadian Air Force Major Tristan Armstrong, who CAHN has linked to thousands of posts made on far-right forums between 2019 and 2024.
