Four years ago, I tested for COVID. I'd had dinner with someone with cancer the night before. Thanks to the vaccine, I did not give that dinner companion COVID. And I only ran a low-grade fever for a few days. Fuck that idiot RFK Jr. and the equally stupid buffoon who hired him.

Ontarioโs Conservatives starved our schools, then blamed everyone else. Letโs talk about whatโs going on with school boards. Nepean families deserve honesty, investment, and a government who puts students first - not politics. #onpoli #onted

The military strike in Caribbean is VERY worrisome. Drug smuggling is a crime, a felony punishable by up to life in prison. Not punishable by the death penalty. The heavily armed U.S. Coast Guard stops drug smuggling boats 24/7, 365. The military performed an extrajudicial execution without trial.

Classic Trumpism: Create a fake crisis and pretend to solve it with tough talk. Polly even borrowed the rhetoric used by American gun lovers. They call it "Stand Your Ground" and Polly calls it "Stand On Guard" ... a patriotic gesture aimed at Canadian gun lovers.
