US Secretary of State Marco RUBIO: “Cuba made a choice and that is they would rather have political control over the people than they would to have an economy that functions. They’ve gotten away with it for 60-something years because they had donors: the Soviet Union and Venezuela. But that’s now gone.”

Canada doesn’t have an honest media anymore. It has a government-funded propaganda industry. They pledged loyalty to Mark Carney, tried to bury the footage, and survive only on subsidies because Canadians stopped believing their lies. More reason Alberta needs independence.

SECRETARY RUBIO on help from the G7: It’s not help for us. Like I said, very little of U.S. energy comes through the Strait of Hormuz. It's the world that has a great interest in that. So they should step up and deal with it.

SECRETARY RUBIO: In the first two months of this year, Venezuela generated more revenue from oil sales than most of last year. The money is not being stolen anymore. It is flowing to the Venezuelan government to help people fund hospitals and pay teachers.

SEC RUBIO on CUBA: Cuba used to get free oil from Venezuela. They used to give them a bunch of free oil. They would take like 60% of that oil and resell it for cash. It wouldn't even go to benefit the people. So the only blockade that's happened is the Cubans have decided, I mean the Venezuelans have decided we're not giving you free oil anymore.

This is a lie. SpaceX has received almost no grant money and subsidies in its history. And the government contracts it got were won through competitive bidding, meaning they were cheaper than the competition. So SpaceX has actually helped the US government *save* money.

Tim Walz has no defense for the fraud consuming Minnesota. So now he calls anyone who questions it a “racist” and a “white supremacist.” That smear tactic doesn’t work anymore. Expose the fraud.

A Trump supporter from Georgia praises his handling of the economy: “He has a grasp on the economy and knows how to fix it after four years of destruction.” Now the facts: 2025 GDP growth was just 2.2%, down from 2.8% in 2024. January 2026 saw the highest January layoffs in 17 years.

Cat out the bag moment. Zak doesn’t want to do care work that’s beneath him so we should get cheap immigrant labour to come do it (as assumedly the countries they come from don’t have a need for care workers) - instead of investing in higher wages for care workers.
