Succinct, on point and extremely well said

Watch Scott Galloway eviscerate Trump, Scott Bessent, and their fucked-up tariff policy that has alienated our allies, bankrupted working class families, and destroyed the "envy of the world" economy President Biden handed to Dirty Donald. 😳👇

This is a brilliant economic analysis of Trump’s nonsensical tariffs as they unfairly apply to Canada. Bravo Scott Galloway. 👏

@dstaples Hoping Kaner may be healthy enough to get in gm 6 lineup take 8-10 shifts against Tkachuk to totally neutralize him (memories of Calgary series still in his head) will effectively negate Tkachuk’s game Go Oilers…need a Fri win!!!

Euphoria peaking in Edmonton. Oilers riding high. All kinds of folks insisting that having won Game 5 that this is DEFINITELY going to Game 7. Is Game 6 a trap game for the Oilers?

This IARC recognition/elevated classification of cancer risk for FF’s to Class 1 is groundbreaking and will serve to leave no doubt the #1 health risk to FF’s is occupational cancer due to exposures on the emergency ground👋👋 Verifys conclusively #cancer risk for FF’s is real!
