Trump administration 2024-2028

IMO the war on drugs (which has failed miserably) has to start in the USA's own backyard, and ours too. First by getting those on drugs off them thereby reducing the demand for drugs. Second, start tossing dealers in jail for lengthy terms.
Pt 1- How ?, Pt 2 Fully agree!

Which Celebrities Are Leaving the Country After Trump’s Election Win?​

Celebrities have reacted to president-elect Donald Trump's win in the 2024 election. See which stars might actually leave the country.

According to multiple reports, Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have moved out of the U.S. The couple has reportedly relocated to the United Kingdom, settling about two hours from London in the Cotswolds, South West England, as reported by Page Six. TMZ noted that Ellen and Portia purchased their home abroad ahead of the 2024 presidential election, with a source claiming they immediately wanted “to get the hell out” once the results were confirmed.

BZ Trump for becoming the second Republican to win the Popular Vote in the nine elections since 1988.

It was not a "landslide". His percentage of the Popular Vote is less than half.
By historical yardsticks it wasn't a landslide. The contemporary yardstick is the highly polarized US in which presidential elections are decided by a few hundred thousand votes across a handful of states. It might take another 20 years to see it with hindsight, but sweeping the six or seven swing states - whichever ones they happen to be - might just be the definition of "landslide" right now.
 
Yeah, well... I doubt it would an invasion of Mexico. More likely surgical strikes and raids with a complicit but unhappy Mexican government under threat of economic sanctions of some kind.
Anybody who thinks that a few "raids" or "surgical strikes" into Mexico will solve any problem with cartels and that afterwards there won't be any serious repercussion's is Day Dreaming in Technicolour!

Celebrities. Who gives a shit?

Who said anything about an invasion?
By dictionary definition, it’s not sending troops to hold ground. That said, would the US consider drone strikes on American soil OK because someone’s boots aren’t in the ground? And would Mexico’s position be any different?

A “glass is 1/2 full” take could also, to be fair, be that maybe Mexico wouldn’t mind certain cartel-ites being vapourized while being able to say “wasn’t us, dude.”

It would also help if the US clamped down on straw buying and supplying the cartels and dealers on both sides of the border with weapons.
 
The US doesn't need to be involved in Mexico, and shouldn't want to be unless invited. A point of the tariff threats is to apply pressure.

"You're a sovereign country creating problems for us. We can't fix those problems directly, but we can try to persuade you to exercise your sovereignty on your side of our shared borders."

Tariffs are, approximately, a kind of border-tightening.

Yes I forgot how the US stores sell full auto AK's and RPG's. To a certain extent Straw Buys are a problem, one which the NRA rightly points out that the authorities rarely use the existing laws to punish the people doing so. Or bother charging people barred from owning guns from trying to buy them.

Funny eh?

Trump's a laughing stock but our Prime Minister is rushing to meet with him 2 months before he's even sworn in. Has a world leader ever met with a US president-elect prior to getting sworn in in the past?
 
Looks like RCMP m is confirming a major shift of federal policing resources to the border in eastern Canada.

For the contract provinces (NB at least) I wonder if this would mean further depletion of frontline people or a re-direction of those assigned to federal policing.


I thought Premier Smith was all about the provinces and feds staying in their own lanes. The way I understand the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, she can't give people authority to do any border control.

My understanding is only federal positions are affected.

No clue.

Has a PM who is a laughing stock ever been able to get an audience with a President Elect before any other world leader?
