Trump has his tax returns. He's just being audited by the IRS. Can't release your taxes when you are under audited. Trump said so himself!

Trump would never lie to us. /s

There is proof. That's why Trump was always golfing! Trump needed to golf to relax from all the hard working he was doing. It's hard work doing absolutely fucking nothing except grifting people.

International students are charged exorbitant rates compared to native Canadians.

The schools use international students as a major source of income.

Woah there. The CRTC works for select Canadians, just not all Canadians.

Who cares about the environment! We have investors to grift! Money to be made!

That rock is inclusive! It doesn't let any homeless person sleep there. The rock does not care about skin color, race, sexual orientation, gender, etc.

I’m calling the DNC technique of wrapping Reaganomics in a friendly identity politics outer shell “woke-washing” because of how similar it is to “green-washing”.

Some More News did a segment on how Regan forced the Democrat Party to go further right in order to achieve power. Same thing happened in the UK after Thatcher. The Labour Party swung right to get votes.

I don't have the data however I would imagine, that after the the conservative 80s, a lot left wing parties moved to the right to capture votes.

Also Regan elevated Jerry Falwall and the Christian Religious Right.

Coverage naturally gravitated toward Lynchburg, Virginia, preacher Jerry Falwell, who had supported Anita Bryant’s 1977 anti-gay-rights crusade, and Virginia Beach television mogul Pat Robertson, who was involved with the Washington for Jesus rally of April 1980 (scheduled to coincide with the anniversary of the first landing at Jamestown).

Falwell, head of the Moral Majority (another nod to Nixon), was more eager to enter the political arena. He thus became the first anointed spokesperson of what was then commonly called the “Religious New Right.”

During the 1980 campaign, Ronald Reagan and the evangelical conservatives engaged in a very public courting ritual. Evangelicals had entertained possible GOP alternatives to Carter since at least 1979. Options abounded— ranging from right-wing purist Philip Crane of Illinois to early front-runner John Connally of Texas—but Reagan, long a darling of conservatives in general, was an especially compelling choice. By the time Moral Majority executive director Robert Billings signed on as a Reagan campaign adviser, the deal was pretty much sealed.

Truly Regan was a piece of shit.

“Noting that she had read studies about mushrooms growing around the Chernobyl nuclear plant, she came to understand further, through her work, that fungi are an extraordinarily resilient species of life that consume carbon, and even though petroleum products are toxic to plants, to mushrooms they are essentially a kind of carbon.

In fact, mushrooms break down several categories of toxic waste with the same enzymes they use to consume a dead tree. They can also eat plastic and other things made out of oil, like agrochemicals.”

A photograph of Ernie smiling quite happily. Ernie is holding a plant.

Text underneath says I like to use my victims as fertilizer to grow small plants, which I then send to the victim's family as a condolence present. Most people neglect potted plants they receive as gifts. So, in a way, it's like they're letting their children die all over again.

Driving the news: The high court voted 8-1 in favor of Starbucks in a case the company filed against the National Labor Relations Board involving the so-called Memphis 7, a group of unionizing workers who said they were unlawfully fired after they appeared in a TV news segment.

  • Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who's effectively become the court's lone labor supporter, wrote the dissent.

  • The decision will make it harder for the NLRB, the agency that administers the national labor law, to go after employers for violating its rules.
