She's a DEI hire.
They're all DEI hires. None of them are the most qualified candidate.
Political DEI hire.
America is fucking gross.
As someone from there I agree. This excuse for a female human is an example of the corrupt darkness that comprises this government.
Yeah, it's like our worst turds floated to the top and are now running it into the ground. So, so stupid.
Capitalism is the most efficient system we’ve got for allowing narcissistic turds to rise to the top.
They should have had cops there to arrest her when she crossed into Canada. I'd bet big money the stupid bitch had a gun on her.
She's acting up. Better take her out back and shoot her.
*This bitch is
Arrest her for illegally crossing the border.
Then send her to a concentration camp with no contact for months. Give her the real American migrant experience.
So does this mean she illegally entered our country?
Yes. Please arrest her and lock her away.
And if anyone shows up to take her back, lock them up too.
If you need help defending against any terrorist activities by an opposing nation, let me know, I will happily defend the free world from fascism.
Just as soon as you get the transporter working...
One more crack like that and you'll get an all expenses paid vacation to the pattern buffer
Don't threaten me with unmitigated immortality via lossless duplication, you charming Federation malcontent.
Canadian here.
Who?
USian here.
We barely know. I think she's literally a puppy murderer.
Oh, her. She shot a goat for some reason and the dog because she failed to train it and didn't like what it was doing, then uses it to write about how she makes tough decisions and that she should be praised instead of ridiculed for being a huge piece of shit in a skin suit.
Some people just need the zipper yanked on their flimsy skin suit so the clotted pus burbling just underneath is plain for all the damn mouth breathers to see — though they'd probably just deep fry it on a stick in a thrombosis-primed heartbeat.
(Which, I'm sure we're all pretty okay with too, considering the beneficial effects of such a fad taking off nationwide, much less globally.)
This really is the worst timeline. We should be best friends and have that border that was barely guarded through the 90s. 😞
It literally has nothing to do with us. He's using tariffs to fund massive tax breaks for the rich. He sold cabinet positions and is allowing the billionaires who bought them to destroy the departments overseeing their industries in order to maximize profits. He doesn't give a shit about Canada or Mexico or China. He just sees us as a source of billions of dollars that he can transfer to the wealthy.
I hope that the riots in the streets start up sooner rather than later.

I don't think there's a single person here who would disagree with you.

Same. But uncoordinated opposition just leaves a lot of dead "lone wolf crazy gunmen"
Good reminder to keep organizing.
Another Canadian here
Oh, an American acting like an idiot and talking like a jerk? ....... Which one?
USian here. ikr?! at the moment we all look the same. I am so fucking sorry.
edit: Ugly American (Pejorative) for those who may not have known.
Some incompetent bimbo some incompetent orange utan designated to head the American Gestapo.
At least she didn't kill anything during the event.
I’ve heard she kills the vibe at any event she attends.
Yep, hide your puppies.
What a brainwashed idiot
I'm GLAD we're finally doing something about our NonViolent Trading Partners and Allies! This will SURELY bring our Prices down and make us SAFER!
It would be fucking grand if every single trump supporter would die in a fire.
Canada, just absorb the northern blue states already.
Vermont never promised they wouldn't secede.
Everyone who expected this turd circus to be any more competent than it was last time: Why?
most of us have the memory of a goldfish; its a surpise every time.
There is nothing to gain from this weird BS rhetoric, but plenty to lose.
I guess she's only there to do dumb political stunts
You just can't trust the gubmint anymore.
