Go to 15:56 if you don't want to listen to all of #karolineleavitt 's typical #asskissing of #felon47

She claims us #canadians have been ripping them off for years and it's "egregious".

#fuckyousideways . #canada is going to hit back. You're burning a bridge with one of your closest #allies

Making #canada an enemy is one of the most ridiculous moves they could have done.

Anyone notice how all #whitehouse staff in press conferences sound exactly the same, right down to the vocal inflection? The propaganda and #felon47 hype they spout are also identical for the most part.
Who's writing this stuff and coaching them?

“You Can Kiss My Ass:” Pretty Much Everyone Hates Matt Gaetz Now

The far-right representative has plunged the House into chaos—and turned his own party against him.

The New Republic

While following the #NobelPrize Award Ceremony, I can't help but wonder: how much further would we have developed in the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, etc. if we already lived in an #anarchist #society?
How much further would we have developed, if there was no capitalist interest in science?

However, I wish they would stop with the whole "glorify the royal family in every speech" shit...
