That’s about 20 Epstein whistleblowers who have now ‘died by suicide’. Absolutely nothing suspicious about that at all…
Former British banker and whistleblower Simon Andriesz, 57, has died by suicide. Andriesz had exposed U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s past links to Jeffrey Epstein, including evidence of a 2018 email exchange about a start-up business. Source: The Banker

Here are the graves. This Orange Shirt Day we are returning the Brandon Indian Residential School cemetery grounds to the Sioux Valley Dakota Nation on behalf of many First Nations whose children are buried here. This is one of the most well documented burial grounds at a residential school in Canada with not only church and historical records but also contemporaneous newspaper articles describing what happened to these children. You can not deny history. #orangeshirtday #everychildmatters #truthandreconciliation #trc #herearethegraves

Fellas! STOP DONALD TRUMP JR. FROM GETTING A CUT OF CANADA'S MILITARY BUDGET! BOOST/REPOST Donald Trump Jr. and an "unnamed" American Investment Company have bought out the Canadian drone company that was to make over 5,000 drones in the next couple of years, of which 1/3 are to be given to Ukraine. This is insane! Contact Defence Minister David McGuinty. Make it clear that we are not willing to cut the Trump crime family in on the defence of our border – a defence that is being mounted because of the threat from Don Jr’s family. email: [email protected] phone: 613-992-3269 More details at charlieangus.substack.com/p/…

The Trump administration appears to have changed its AI chatbot so that it no longer debunks Trump lies. Yesterday: It said Biden won the 2020 election and there's no indication of widespread fraud. Today: Says it can't answer such questions.

Did you think that Trump changing the name of “AI” to Super Intelligence “SI” was strange? Well, apparently, it was just another enrichment ploy. Adam Cochran’s investigation shows that In the past 60 days insiders bought thousands of .si domain names. They’ve profited hundreds of millions of dollars so far. Here is Cochran’s full investigation: I believe Trump’s “SI” Executive Order was ANOTHER criminal plot to enrich the Trump family. Insiders seem to have profited MILLIONS off of .si domain names before his Truth Social posts. It’s no surprise that .AI domain names are a hot commodity and almost all taken by squatters. But what wasn’t? .si domain names. .si is the domain extension of Slovenia (coincidentally where Melania and Barron Trump are both citizens of). On September 19th Trump made a random Truth Social post about renaming “Artificial Intelligence” to “Super Intelligence” without any clear reason. This set off a flurry of people buying and registering .si names related to AI. But it wasn’t the first time… The .si registry has around 55/day registrations in 2023-2025, but in 2026 the numbers started to pick up. On June 24th they saw more than 400 in a single day. This volume spiked with more than 7000 new domains registered in July. And a sudden flurry of buying .si domains in the aftermarket. AI related .si names started going for tens of thousands of dollars. It was the first ever spike in aftermarket sales for .si domains. Many of these were re-listed, such as build.si now available for $14M. How do we know this is Trump’s inner circle? The registrations started to tick up LONG before this announcement. While domain squatters may purchase bulk domain names of common words, they don’t buy over priced after market domains which started to sell around the same time. And for the last few months have registered more than 10,000 AI related terms. Many of which are now listed for sale for MILLIONS. Over the investigation, I found around 12,000 AI related or MAGA related domains that had been newly registered or changed hands before this announcement. In the months prior to July though 95% of all .si domains had been non-English. Unfortunately DynaDot (the largest bulk registrar for .si domains) keeps Whois information private on registration. Some of the DNS records resolve to bulk domain squatters, but it’s pretty telling that 1776(.)si and a ton of other pro-US, pro-MAGA term [remainder cut off] So why an Executive Order? The President can’t change how private citizens or corporations talk. But the executive order requires that all Federal departments use the term “Super Intelligence” specifically “SI” AND that they “no longer acknowledge” the term AI. Trying to force the term into commonplace, and suggesting that AI companies who want to curry favor with the President need to brand as “SI” Which means? Buying a .si domain name. (I wouldn’t be surprised if we see the government launch a .si site too) Since Trump’s announcement .si domain have seen MILLIONS of dollars in turn over. Much of it going to domains that were registered in the last 60 days before the announcement. Trump’s inner circle massively profited on this policy change while reporters call it “unexpected” Using an Executive Order for the enrichment of yourself is not only unethical but a breach of office. It’s a crime and an impeachable offence. The records are also very clear, and logged. So I’m sure a future Congress will be looking at who bought these domains.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 An investigative journalist has just exposed another Trump crime family SCAM Donald Trump’s executive order to change “AI” (Artificial Intelligence) into “SI” (Super Intelligence) was a CRIMINAL SCAM to enrich himself and his Epstein class friends. They pocketed HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of dollars by buying up and creating tens of thousands of .si web domains in the weeks BEFORE the announcement. Trump used his power as president to force the government and pressure businesses to change their terminology to make him money. This is a CRIME. Everything this scumbag does is a rotten scam. This is the most overtly corrupt presidency in history. [Find a link to the full investigation by investigative journalist Adam Cochran below]

Let's be very clear on this one point. The President mocking a former President in front of the communist leader of China is the most un-American thing an American president has ever done.
"This is the autopen... it's Biden." 🤣 President Trump shows off the legendary Presidential Walk of Fame to President Xi.

Scott Bessent’s comments about Canada today were arrogant, demeaning and contemptuous. The gratuitous mocking of one of America’s largest customers and closest allies was out of line. Serious disagreements deserve serious statesmanship — not cheap insults. cbc.ca/news/politics/bessent…

New: In a phone call with me after U.S.-Canada trade negotiations collapsed, President Trump suggested the US had added conditions late during talks.  “That sounds like me,” Trump responded, when asked about Canadian officials' assertion about US late-stage demands. When I pressed, “So you don't deny it?” The president replied, “No, no, I don't deny anything. So no, they have to pay a fair amount. And if they don't pay a fair amount, we won't make a deal. That's fine.“ More on the broader effects of tariffs here: cnn.com/2026/08/25/business/…

Replying to @sarobertson_
The simple reality is that Canada collects 0% actual tariff revenue on the vast majority of U.S. dairy imports because most shipments enter completely duty-free within allocated Tariff-Rate Quotas. Not hitting the quotas means US dairy products enter Canada DUTY FREE you morons!

Trump post yesterday morning: “WE DON’T NEED CANADA, THEY NEED US!” Trump in a tele-rally yesterday evening: “You know, selfishly, we need aluminum in this country. We don't have it. We get it all from Canada, for the most part, and we need it badly.” H/t @josh_wingrove
