If the French left Canada and went there probably, they love that garbage too much.

Tell me about French Canadians being cold and remember I live in Hollywood, FL. And around here, they love the all you can eat buffets* although the chinese virus has put a chokehold on those places.

*Ala JP: all you can eat buffets are not what I consider "fine cuisine"

How is double think like this "news". A hedge fund got caught being dumb and CNN says it's Trump's fault. The insanity of this "article" is obvious how does anyone trust CNN.

France, yes. Rome, no.
I was going for: Make America Reliant On Foreign Governments Again; close.

Interesting tidbit about that: The Kingdom of the Netherlands and France, both EU countries, share their only border in the Caribbean - on Saint-Martin.

I used to remember learning about the legislature branch in k12. What a waste, should have learned more about manboy love like they teach today.

Biden incited a riot? Source for that?


As an aside, I find it amusing that the Wikipedia page for "Impeachment of Donald Trump" no longer leads directly to the article on the 2019 Impeachment, but to a page listing the various Impeachments, from which you can then select the one of interest.

?

He did that in his inaugural address, specifically, by name:


"And now, a rise in political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will defeat."
