If anything, it’s a milquetoast and meaningless statement.

This sounds eerily familiar. I’m picturing him in a bunker, yelling at his generals.

Fishing boats? Are they going to pull a reverse Dunkirk on Taiwan?

Only if the ingredient is HFCS.

I think mostly selling Rafales, but I’m not French so I can’t speak to their motivations when choosing who to vote for.

Are you suggesting they simply ignore the defence treaties they signed with allies? Who do you think they are, Russia?

The carrier is there strictly in a defensive posture. no? I’m not aware of France being involved in any attacks on Iran.

NYT stop sanewashing Trump challenge (impossible)

This isn’t surprising at all to anybody who has spent time around hockey players. The percentage of right-wing douchebaggery (not to mention rape culture, etc) is off the charts.

“We’ll do the White House,” Trump told players. “We’ll just have some fun, we have medals for you guys. And we have to — I must tell you — we’re going to have to bring the women’s team, you do know that,” the president said, chuckling. The players laughed. “I do believe I probably would be impeached [if I didn’t],” Trump continued.

So it’s “transparency through incompetence”, the corrolary to “security through obscurity”

Oh, so that means he isn’t a billionaire, I guess.

DEATH PENALTY DECISION ISSUED! (there will be no death penalty)

“anything I don’t like is treason”

For some reason a lot of y’all wanna bend over backwards to defend this shit.

🙄

Pray tell, what would these dumbfucks even know about science that it’s worth leaking?

It’s unlikely that these dorks are leaking military info (and why would the US even care?), but they should definitely be investigated. I think the real question is whether the US are using “force or violence”, which would fall under C) and A)

Criminal charges are federal in Canada, but charges are laid by crown prosecutors in that particular province (never by the government itself)

I don’t think this actually meets the definition of treason, as they aren’t using violence and are going the legislative/referendum route: https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-46/section-46.html

2. Every one commits treason who, in Canada,

a) uses force or violence for the purpose of overthrowing the government of Canada or a province;

b) without lawful authority, communicates or makes available to an agent of a state other than Canada, military or scientific information or any sketch, plan, model, article, note or document of a military or scientific character that he knows or ought to know may be used by that state for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or defence of Canada;

c) conspires with any person to commit high treason or to do anything mentioned in paragraph (a);

d) forms an intention to do anything that is high treason or that is mentioned in paragraph (a) and manifests that intention by an overt act; or

e) conspires with any person to do anything mentioned in paragraph (b) or forms an intention to do anything mentioned in paragraph (b) and manifests that intention by an overt act.

Maybe that was due to the die-off from COVID.

If you can’t help but flash your bitcoin-shaped dick during a completely irrelevant conversation, I’m not the one who has a problem.

You had me until the last line. Yuck.
