This is what justice looks like:

"The attorney for the City of Coeur d'Alene confirmed to KTVB charges have been filed against six men for their alleged involvement in forcefully dragging a woman from a Kootenai County Republican town hall in February."

The charges: "Battery, false imprisonment, security agent uniform violation, security agent duties violation"

I'm not sure I understand your understanding...

Essentially 100% of all Canadian goods being sold into the US market were already "complying with the USMCA". And the US had exactly the access to the Canadian market that the USMCA specifies.

i.e. there was nothing that Canada was non-compliant with. But we got hit with tariffs *explicitly banned* by the USMCA itself.

The USA is the only one who was noncompliant with our trade agreement, which if you'll remember, Mango Mussolini was extremely proud to boast that he negotiated himself, before recently saying whoever negotiated it was an idiot.

Just to clarify #trump didn't violate a judges order to reverse course on sending hundreds of #criminals to an #inhumane prison, Trump #violated the order to send random #migrants to an inhumane prison. Saying that because we don't know for sure they must be criminals. Now he's threatening to do the same to those who damage #tesla property, saying it's #terrorism. No due process, no fair trial or charges; this is a #violation of #HumanRights and needs to be treated as such.

[3:50] From the Arizona #AttorneyGeneral; grateful for her. "But today, Congress is nowhere to be found. #DonaldTrump has grabbed the power of #Congress & handed it to an #unelected #billionaire & a group of teenage #hackers. The #richest man in the world has run roughshod over the authority of #federal #agencies in #violation of the rule of law & the #Constitution." Imagine #Obama handing #GeorgeSoros keys to the same castle: their #hypocrisy was predictable. youtube.com/watch?v=jrE0DOEcbR
