Ha! I didn’t see the poll coming. We have a big, big problem up here. Castro’s boy and his lap dog are both scions of unearthly rich families that have no concept of what life’s like for rank and file Canadians. If they lost their positions in politics this afternoon their life styles wouldn’t change one iota. This is a game to them, both are seeking the approval of their ‘Head’ Masters in the WEF.

Between them they have agreed to support one another until a new election has to be called in late 2025! (This, children, is the lesson to be learned from a system that has several political parties… Niether of them can hold power independently, they don’t have the #’s, but together…). We can’t, short of a revolution, get rid of them. Is Poilievre going to stay the bright new shiny thing that long? Who knows!

But one thing we do know, Castro Jr has given something like $600M to the media outlets to promote his shit… all out in public and nothing we can do about it! Nice eh?

The msm are nothing but syphlitic, painted-up whores. The Politicians are their ‘Johns’.

Eating an apple during an interview is pure genius. It tells the journalist that he/she is inconsequential and irrelevant. Plus, it would cause our media to get a full blown case of the vapors. Remember when the enemedia went bonkers because Marco Rubio took a sip of water during a press conference?

God it felt good reading that article!

There’s no better way to start your day than seeing the media get a well deserved and brilliant smack down - and multiple times!

It was also hilarious with lines like this that should be enshrined somewhere forever:

“It was the most famous eating of an apple since Eve.”

You are a treasure, Mr. Surber!

"Harvard, the school with an endowment fund worth $50 billion and leadership that ain’t worth a nickel...." It's for gems like this that make my morning.

The Poilievre interview was inspirational. He was simple, confident, and allowed truth to present itself in a condescending way against lies, as it naturally does - and should.

We say people are waking up and things are slowly changing. Perhaps this is bleeding into the tactics some use to handle the media. The part that confuses me is there were 75 million committed Trump voters in 2020, yet this segment doesn't have a voice anywhere except through PDJT's text messages and rallies and a few other sites that aren't "mainstream". 75 million should be enough to start a mainstream channel somewhere.

Our traitorous GOP leader, Ronna McDaniel, still only uses mainstream channels and mainstream moderators to hold Republican debates. How crazy is that?

I propose for those who are on the Poilievre side of not letting the truth escape from a deceptive interview that we STOP calling the lying media MAINSTREAM media. They are the leftist lying media on mainstream channels.

These small wins over an ignorant and arrogant news media are entertaining. Vivek is both informed intelligent and independent, qualities that raise fear in American media. Trump is Trump, consistently seeking approval from a group who wants him dead. I’m not sure that these interviews change the hearts and minds of anyone as our country is so polarized. I’d like to meet the person still wavering over the decision to select Biden or Trump.

Canada is America’s future if we don’t stop ourselves. It has become a wasteland of LGBT intersectionality Hamas loving assisted suicide loving drug using areligious insecure liberal complainers with a failing economy and a Castro sired bastard as its leader. Great read Don. Thank you.

I enjoyed the humor in this article. I will enjoy it more when the day comes that our country once again becomes a meritocracy. I will enjoy it more if a day comes when journalism standards are restored, journalists strive for objective truth by presenting multiple sides of an issue, and when every fact is checked and re-checked for accuracy.

Instead we have pretend journalists who lie for a living, while truth tellers are considered domestic terrorists by an FBI that is more like the Gestapo or Soviet NKVD. We have pharmaceutical companies who pay thousands of dollars to hire former CIA agents to root out 'misinformation" that they fear will lead to decreased poison "vax" sales by smearing if not destroying people who tell the truth about these poisons.

The free press we once had was one pillar of a free society, as their role was to keep politicians and elected officials honest. Now their job is to cover up the crimes of elected officials and of pharmaceutical companies so government and billionaires can take control of the world. This is totalitarianism. It would be a funny joke if it weren't really happening.

I still think humor is one of the highest sublimations possible, and a good sense of humor is essential to survival. But sometimes humor reminds us of the terrible pain we are living with and trying to find answers to.

#4 from Highlights Sat: 'Members of Congress outperformed the S&P 500—sometimes by huge amounts'. 'Fortune' headline and grinning picture of Pelosi-I assumed she would be at the top of the list, but she was a ho-hum 65% compared to Higgins and Green-well over 200%. It's obvious Congress has THE MOST BRILLIANT INVESTORS IN AMERICA- We may never know how we could be $34,000,000,000,000 in debt with such great financial wizards. Baby, It's Cold Outside, But Not Inside.

" . . . Poilievre asked all the questions"

Precisely. Poilievre knows what ever cop knows: the person asking the questions is in charge. And he also knows what every Rabbi knows: answer a question with a question.

I used this tactic once many years ago to deal with a cop who was badgering me. Works like a charm.

I have been saying "wait and see".... BUT... I AM REALLY STARTING TO LIKE VIVEK RAMASWAMY !!! So Impressed with his astute handling of the "reporter". IF ONLY, our Congress people were as smart, well spoken, and knowledgeable.... he is pretty amazing. Not certain where he belongs in Trump's cabinet, I will leave that up to my President....TRUMP, of course.

Kornfield pulled out the usual straw man: “some Republican strategists view as an effort to garner attention and some experts warn is dangerous.”

I am sure she spoke with renown strategist Ms. Nobody and eminent expert Dr. No-one.

A Harvard professorship awaits her.

"It’s not like newspapers and TV shows are staffed by Einsteins." I expect an intelligent and rational person would avoid the current mega corporate media and seek other outlets for their talents. (Substack for the win)

Good article Don. I have no idea if m will ever be top guy in Canada. But speaking from a purely economically driven position, I think Poilievere and DeSantis should team up with Ramaswamy and start a PR firm teaching the members of the GOP how to talk to the press. That is, if the GOP is really serious about getting better at their jobs. I have my doubts. Retirement-in-place while working is a great deal, eh?
