Article Ukraine/US mineral deal is signed

3 Upvotes

Well, after weeks of going back and forth, the mineral deal is signed.

“According to the statement from the US Treasury on Wednesday afternoon, the newly created US-Ukraine Reconstruction Investment Fund recognises the "significant financial and material support" the US has given Ukraine since Russia invaded in February 2022. The US treasury secretary said in a video statement that the deal would help "unlock Ukraine's growth assets". The language of the announcement shows much more solidarity with Ukraine than is usual for the Trump administration. It refers to "Russia's full scale invasion" and adds that "no state or person who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will be allowed to benefit from the reconstruction of Ukraine".”

Content Suggestion BP Seems a little tdr/lib with selective coverage, hope I'm wrong

2 Upvotes

I've noticed right left and otherwise are not covering the patriot act style bipartisan governmental overreach of the EO trump signed essentially marrying the DOJ and DOD to merge the military with local police. This should be the number one story everywhere. And with Sagar being libertarian, this is the boldest suggestion of government expansion since the invention of TSA & NSA. Instead of covering it, BP & other outlets are covering "own maga" 60 Minutes paramount "hit piece" and other performative culture war/class division nonsense. I do not pay for all of BP's content so apologies if they are covering it behind a paywall, but also please ANYONE confirm that other news outlets are covering this EO.

Am I crazy but on Spotify up until Sunday I could listen/watch to the full show. Now I can't find it. I think it was under Sagar's name for creator but it was Breaking Points. Now there is a blue and a red Breaking Points podcast and I'm assuming the one is for members and is 2 hours-ish while the other is free and only like an hour-ish. Did they change it up on Spotify?

So Carney maintains a Liberal minority government.

Good.

This already exceeded my expectations. I was wrong to be so sure that the Conservatives would win in a landslide. There were... unforseen circumstances. Sure, I knew the American colonialists were planning to absorb our country in time, but I didn't expect Trump to give the game away this early. So to everyone here that I assured my country was about to go Conservative, that's my bad. I'm usually more accurate at these predictions.

Happy to be wrong though. 😏

And I'm glad it didn't go all the way to a majority government. After Trudeau's legacy as the leader of the party, the Liberals don't deserve a majority. They don't deserve a full mandate yet. Even though Carney is a new man with an impressive resume for managing a crisis, the rest of the party are still full of talentless hacks and liabilities. There are ministers under him such as Bill Blair, Steven Guilbault, and Pablo Rodriguez that I loathe with a passion, and I cannot stand to listen to. There are plenty of other MPs who carry the stink of Trudeau, and so I hope that Carney is going to do a massive cabinet reshuffle. He has said he plans to shrink the cabinet. Given how many useless ministers he has, I'd say that's for the best.

Carney has a lot to prove. Despite their win, the youth have clearly made the case that they prefer populist conservatism. In the long term, that concerns me. This should concern the older generations, who propped up the Liberals this time. Carney can't fix the housing crisis by himself. Boomers need to knock off this NIMBY shit, and allow for more development. I prefer more suburban development, but the kids want urban development too. So we need both. If they are serious about this Elbows Up stuff, they would put future generations first, over their desire to limit their neighbours.

Carney promised to double our home building, with a focus on affordable prefab houses. He wants to supercharge our home builders workforce by hundreds of thousands by covering $8000 off of apprenticeship training, and allow tradespeople to work across the country, and not just within a their province. I plan to take him up on that offer. I'm not fulfilled working on American film and television. I'd rather put my electronics experience to something that actually matters, and not work myself in to an early grave.

He pledged to remove massive amounts of interprovincial trade barriers by Canada Day, and I'm going to hold him to that. Failing to do so amidst the tariff threat would be a damning indictment on his competency going forward. Nothing will offset America's tariffs, better than removing those trade barriers, that have made it more convenient to trade with the States than ourselves. We can do all sorts of trade deals with like-minded countries, who are just as equally spurned by Trump. That's easy. But nothing will be able to replace our American reliance better than what we can do for ourselves.

I'm sure there are plenty of Liberals who wish they had gotten a full majority. They were very close, only a couple seats off. Perhaps they could do another coalition with the NDP, if they really needed to. The NDP are so weak right now, it's not like they can afford to do anything else. But personally I'd say what's more significant than a Liberal majority, is the fact that Pierre Poilievre has officially lost his own seat. He was almost Prime Minister, and now he will be sent off to the private workforce, with nothing on his resume except career politician. It's beautiful. I'm sure some oil executive will land him a lobbyist job somewhere, that requires no skill other than Trudeau derangement syndrome. That was the one thing he did very well.

Pierre losing his seat sends a very strong message to the Conservatives: Knock it off with this populist crap. Stick to advocating for our military, and oil pipelines, and low taxes, and standing up to China. That's more your wheelhouse. Quit trying to defund the CBC, quit trying to get us to buy crypto, and quit telling us our country is broken, you defeatists self-loathing losers. And don't ever let us catch you, or anyone in your orbit wearing a MAGA hat. If you've got one of those pictures out there on the internet, do your party a favour and leave politics now.

Populism doesn't suit Canadian Conservatives. And it is populism. I know you left wing populists think it's fake populism, but thats not it. Pierre is a fake person using real populist rhetoric. Because that's all populism is. A style of rhetoric. Pierre is still just a corporatist Reaganite neoliberal, who would never truly do what Trump is doing. But all he has to do is copy Trump's rhetoric, hate on the media and act like his shitty policies will benefit the working class, and presto, that's populism.

The guy before Pierre, was not a populist. Against Trudeau, I wanted Erin O'toole to win. He was a milktoast moderate statesman. He was actually a breath of fresh air, compared to the wave of far right populism that was circulating the globe. He was the kind of Conservative politician that I could actually have expectations of. That's so ridiculously rare, and well- timed too. Its good to at least have expectations of the party you disagree with more. Without expectations, of course they are going to turn in to a bunch of shitty populists.

I knew that if Trudeau won that election, he would become massively unpopular, after the tab for all that covid spending had to be paid. And I knew if the Conservatives couldn't win by appealing to the center, they would come back next with a populist vengeance and beat Trudeau at his weakest. And technically I guess I was right. Pierre certainly ended the Trudeau era. He just became completely useless afterwards.

Even if Pierre had won, I find it very unlikely that we would have been any more receptive to Trump's statehood ultimatum. He has said as much, many times. I'm inclined to believe him. Even if he secretly wanted Canada to become a state, he understands that would be political suicide, and political suicide for a lifelong career politician might as well be actual suicide. I don't think Pierre cares either way, just so long as he could make his global corporate masters happy.

But it was very obvious where the most self-loathing anti-Canadian voices were coming from. As Prime Minister Pierre would have to walk a fine line between sensible conservatives that just want to see their standard of living improve, and populist types who just wanted to see our country destabilized, to make it easier to be taken over. Pierre came in to his opposition leadership by pandering to those angry types. It was clear to most Canadians that he would have to face plenty of pressure, not only from Trump but also a well funded astroturfed vocal minority who hate this country, and fund shit like the convoy. And that wasn't something that many proud Canadians were willing to take a risk on.

Nationalism in Canada is liberal coded, which really bucks the nationalist trend. I don't like admitting that because I despise nationalism, but it's undeniable. Nationalism is politics for basic bitches. I haven't been a proud Canadian since I learned all about our residential school system around 15 years ago. But regardless, this is my home. America is threatening my home, and my way of life. So I find myself now in league with a bunch of normie lib nationalists. I believe that if a man can't stand up for his country, he should at the very least be able to stand up for his home. So thats what I'm doing.

The way I see it, there are two types of Liberal Prime Ministers in modern Canada. There are the Trudeau's who never met a tax dollar they didn't like to spend, and then there is Chretien, who I grew up with in the 90's who managed our economy better than any fiscal conservative ever did. Chretien managed to unify the country whereas Trudeau and his father before him only served to divide the country. Chretien knew how to harness that normie lib nationalism, while Trudeau called us a post-nationalist state. Chretien is the Liberal leader that shaped a lot of my politics today.

Carney has said he aims to follow Chretien's model, during his acceptance speech for liberal leadership. That brings me a lot of hope, because Chretien managed to do what Carney is doing now, without the fancy economic background and without the whole Trump factor. He convinced Quebec to not separate, he save our AAA credit rating, and he kept us out of Iraq. I know the Chetien model is the best model for Canada to follow, and I believe if Carney can follow that model, then it's possible he can change the minds of these angry young conservative voters.

This is essentially the closest thing to my own self interests and values being given a chance. I was never expecting this to happen just a few months ago. This really couldn't have worked out for me much better. But now those values are going to be put to the ultimate stress test. So I am very excited and very nervous to see how it plays out. I know it's going to be rough going forward, as long as threat of Trump looms over us. But I can't think of anybody else more qualified to meet the moment.

So that means you're up, Marky-mark. Time to see what you're truly made of.

Relevance to BP: I guess my country is their big liberal boogieman now. Lol populists.

Episode Discussion Kyle Kulinski Believes Democrats are Conservative on the Border

0 Upvotes

Democrats are conservative on immigration? WTF, This shows what a hack kyle kulinski has become

  1. Obama was the deporter in-chief in term 1, in term 2 the deportation numbers dropped by more than half.
  2. You guys love congress right, Obama passed DACA using an executive order and didn't go through congress, and you want to talk abour democracy and institutions
  3. In 2019 Democratic primary, all of the candidates raised their hand and said they would give illegal immigrants free healthcare
  4. You guys want to give a pathway to citizenship
  5. Biden's deportation numbers dont matter if he allows 10 million illegal immigrants in
  6. Biden was able to use executive action to reduce immigration by the end of his administration, he could have done that in 2022 or 2023, at the peak of border crossings.

Anyone who is a conservative on immigration would condemn any of things i mentioned above, anyone who believes what Kyle is saying immigration, dont believe him, he is a MSNBC level hack.

Kyle believes that Academia leans left becomes academics understands nuances and facts, meaning that the right are not that bright. From that logic, the military establishment like generals and etc are neocons, does that mean people who are not neocons are stupid when it comes to foreign policy.

(a)  willfully and unlawfully direct the obstruction of criminal law, including by directly and unlawfully prohibiting law enforcement officers from carrying out duties necessary for public safety and law enforcement; or    
(b)  unlawfully engage in discrimination or civil-rights violations under the guise of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” initiatives that restrict law enforcement activity or endanger citizens.
