I would love if they actually did follow through and go with the Saab. I don't know how difficult it would be to get out of the contract (probably impossible at this point), but I just feel we need to start relying on other countries for comparable products, including military hardware.

I didn't know it was Charles De Gaulle who said that line, I remember the first time I heard that was from a Youtuber called 'Beau of the Fifth Column'. I wasn't aware he may have been quoting him.

Exactly. In fact, didn't Trump once say he loved the uneducated? An informed electorate, one that's capable of critical thinking, is the one thing every dictator would fear. Makes it harder for them to manipulate the masses. Which would explain why Trump wants to close down the Department of Education.

That's awesome, thanks for sharing, just downloaded the app now. But it says that donations are currently disabled on IOS due to App Store policies.

Good work. And I agree that the media is included, and it should be highlighted and made more public just how many news outlets are controlled by US companies. I honestly don't think a lot of the general public are aware of how much control the US has over many of our new outlets. Maybe people might have suspected it before, but not cared, but I think they'd care more now, given the US's recent actions, and share that with the people around them.

They're just all over the place at this point. One moment they're accusing the Canadian government of being totalitarian, then next moment they're saying it's been overtaken by cartels from Mexico. Like, ffs, make up your mind. And funny how they never like to talk about all the illegal guns they allow over their border into Canada. Guess that just screws up their narrative.

Honestly, I wasn't comfortable going to the US ever since Trump got elected the first time. This is just another reason to never visit that place again. Would rather vacation somewhere in Canada, or if there's a great travel deal, visit Europe.

I deleted all my amazon accounts a few weeks ago, and have no plans to go back. When I order things now, I'll just order through the vendor instead of Amazon, I can live with it taking longer or costing a bit more.

Good. The US should be given the cold shoulder, or not be given the same access and information they had before. They can’t be trusted. Does anyone really think he wouldn’t share any information he’s given with his Russian handlers? Right now, they're a threat to the other four members' national security.

That's why I'd never get one. And the way Musk is now, I don't care if he may not be as involved in its daily operations, I wouldn't want anything to do with it. Some friends bought Teslas before Trump and Musk started making those comments. They want to get rid of their models, but are having trouble finding sellers.

Yes, but it's been updated a lot since then, I think the current iteration is the E-series.
