Los Angeles Times: Canadian Prime Minister Carney calls Trump’s auto tariffs a ‘direct attack’ on his country

It’s looking like “no more Mr. Nice Guy” — the Canadians are tiring of King Donald’s childish antics.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Wednesday that President Trump’s auto tariffs are a “direct attack” on his country and that the trade war is hurting Americans, noting that American consumer confidence is at a multi-year low.

Trump said earlier Wednesday that he was placing 25% tariffs on auto imports and, to underscore his intention, he stated, “This is permanent.”

“This is a very direct attack,” Carney responded. “We will defend our workers. We will defend our companies. We will defend our country.”

Carney said he needs to see the details of Trump’s executive order before taking retaliatory measures. He called it unjustified and said he will leave the election campaign to go to Ottawa on Thursday to chair his special Cabinet committee on U.S. relations.

Carney earlier announced a CA$2-billion ($1.4-billion) “strategic response fund” that will protect Canadian auto jobs affected by Trump’s tariffs.

Irish Star: ‘Dumb’ Donald Trump is torn apart after crisis phone call with Canadian leader Mark Carney

“I just finished speaking with Prime Minister Mark Carney, of Canada. It was an extremely productive call, we agree on many things, and will be meeting immediately after Canada’s upcoming Election to work on elements of Politics, Business, and all other factors, that will end up being great for both the United States of America and Canada. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The post on Truth Social caused Trump supporters to turn on and criticize the president on X.

“PMs Trudeau and Carney did a masterful job pushing back on Trump’s BS. Minimal pushback to a bully breaks them. Trump looks dumb here bc what was the point of stiffening Canada’s back to begin with? Trump is weak asf,” a user wrote on X.

“President Trump says the call with PM Carney happened. Note the language here, he’s no longer calling the Canadian PM Governor,” another wrote on X.

“Trump is funny cos he spoke with Trudeau without respect and he is like Polite with Carney, even called him Prime Minister. Huge win politically for Carne,” another wrote on X.

“Not the 51st state, any more? I can’t keep up. Carney is a shrewd man. Trump would be wise to remember that,” posted another on the social media site.

“Trump Speaks to PM Mark Carney of Canada Trump calls it an ‘extremely productive’ call No mention of ‘51st State & No Guv Carney’ ( It was only to tease Trudeau) Both will be meeting after elections,” another posted on X.

The call comes after President Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday to bring in a new 25% tariff on finished vehicles imported into the United States next week.

CNN: Old US-Canada relationship is ‘over,’ warns Canadian prime minister

Canada will have to “dramatically reduce” its reliance on the United States as the two countries’ relationship darkens, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned on Thursday, adding that the old bilateral relationship was “over.”

After holding a cabinet meeting to discuss Canada’s response to US President Donald Trump’s tariffs threats, Carney told reporters in Ottawa that he foresaw the coming of a “fundamentally different relationship” between the two countries.

“The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation is over,” he said.

“It’s clear the US is no longer a reliable partner. It is possible that with comprehensive negotiations, we could reestablish an element of confidence but there will be no going backwards …

In other words, King Donald, go screw yourself. We’re not playing charades with you any longer.

Western Journal: Rubio Lays Down the Law After Reporter Asks Why Activist Student’s Visa Was Suddenly Revoked

F*ck*ng fascist Rubio. The Bill of Rights is for EVERYBODY in this country.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is laying down the law: If you get a student visa to the United States, you’re here to study.

You’re not here to occupy buildings and clash with police. Not to disrupt class and terrorize Jewish students. Study. Period.

That was the point he drove home after a reporter asked him about the case of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Ph.D student at Massachusetts’ Tufts University who was arrested by plain-clothes federal agents Tuesday after her visa was revoked for taking part in pro-Palestinian protests, the Associated Press reported.

Those who are fighting her deportation say she merely wrote an Op-Ed defending the Palestinian cause and claim authorities haven’t given a specific reason why her visa has been revoked. A U.S. judge barred Ozturk from being moved out of the state of Massachusetts by the Department of Homeland Security without notice to the court while her case works its way through the system, but she had already been taken to an ICE detention facility in Louisiana by the time of the ruling.

Asked about the detention during a news conference in Guyana on Thursday, Rubio made it clear that the government believes it has a solid case against Ozturk — and that her case should serve as an example for others.

Solid case? LOL! The courts have sided with you fascists how many times since this all started? Two? Three? Keep losing, losers!

“If you apply for a visa to enter the United States and be a student, and you tell us that the reason why you are coming to the United States is not just because you want to write op-eds but because you want to participate in movements that are involved in doing things like vandalizing universities, harassing students, taking over buildings, creating a ruckus, we are not going to give you a visa,” Rubio said.

Federal authorities have detained and arrested multiple international students in the last few weeks.

A University of Minnesota graduate student was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers Thursday night, according to a statement from University leadership.

The international graduate student, who is enrolled in the Carlson School [of Management], was detained at an off-campus residence. The University is not sharing the student’s name or where they are being held due to student privacy laws, but it is providing support to the student, University spokesperson Andria Waclawski said. 

There are more than 5,200 international students at the University, roughly 11% of the total student body.

ICE has arrested more than 32,000 people since Donald Trump took office in January, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Last year, ICE made just over 33,000 arrests.

The University of Minnesota has confirmed that one of its graduate students was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) officials. 

“The University had no prior knowledge of this incident and did not share any information with federal authorities before it occurred,” said a statement from the school’s president, Rebecca Cunninham.

The university is taking steps to ensure students are connected to support services like Student Legal Services and International Student and Scholar Services. 

…

Democrat State Senator Doron Clark, who represents parts of the University area, spoke to KARE 11 Friday evening.

“What stood out to me was the lack of information. We don’t know where the student is, we don’t know the students name, we just don’t know what happened,” he said. “The only way we found out was not from the federal government.”

“I think the blindness to what is going on is maddening, and it’s frightening,” Clark continued.

Civil rights groups denounce that 48 ICE detainees have been ‘forcibly disappeared’

19 March 2025

In the first week of March, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) conducted an “enhanced enforcement operation” in New Mexico that resulted in the arrest of 48 people, as reported by the agency itself. Their names, whereabouts, whether they have access to counsel and which agency is holding them are all unknown, according to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which considers them to have been “forcibly disappeared.”

“This is not just a procedural issue, but a grave human rights violation,” said Rebecca Sheff, senior staff attorney at the ACLU of New Mexico. “When the government detains people and then their whereabouts are unknown and they are unreachable, it exempts them from the protection of the law. Families are left in agonizing uncertainty, desperate to contact their loved ones and ensure their safety. Enforced disappearances are prohibited by both our Constitution and international human rights laws,” she said.

…

“We are alarmed and disturbed that these four dozen New Mexican individuals remain unidentified and that insufficient transparency, oversight, and accountability has taken place to date regarding their whereabouts and wellbeing. We call on your offices to exercise the full extent of your authorities to determine their current status and ensure their safety,” the complaint states.

The family of a man taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Miami is demanding his release, saying he has no criminal record and that federal authorities have not told them why he was detained.

“My husband, a father living in the United States, married to an American citizen with no criminal record, has been unjustly detained by ICE,” wrote the family of Eduardo Nuñez Gonzalez, a Cuban man with Spanish citizenship.

In the online petition, the family writes that “[our] father’s unexpected detention has shattered our family and left a void in our lives.”

“This is an injustice against him and against all families who are being separated without cause,” the family writes in the petition. “We demand justice for our family.”

Throughout Vilma Perez Delgado’s home, there are pictures of her and her husband, Eduardo Nuñez Gonzalez, scattered about.

The last time she saw her husband of five years was on Thursday, March 20.

“Can I say goodbye to him? They said no, he’s already been detained,” she recalled asking the men who knocked on her front door and detained him.

Video shows the moment that morning when Eduardo was taking out the trash. A man can be seen slowly walking, and then runs to approach him. Other men also appear in the video, detaining him just steps from his front door.

The video was taken on a security camera outside Vilma’s North Miami home. And this all happened while Vilma was inside.

The men who detained her partner of more than 30 years couldn’t give her a reason as to why, so she called an attorney to help her. That attorney is still looking for answers as to why her husband was taken.

While the full ramifications are still unfolding, the Minneapolis Health Department announced it must immediately shut down its free vaccination clinics and halt all immunization outreach.

The local impact includes canceling five free vaccine clinics scheduled for April and halting partnerships with providers like M Health Fairview, Odam Medical Clinic, and Neighborhood HealthSource, city officials said.

The funding doesn’t just affect COVID-19; it halts access to routine immunizations like polio, MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), and other childhood vaccines.

DHS to Terminate CHNV Parole Program Effective April 24, 2025

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has indicated that it will be publishing a notice in the Federal Register on Tuesday, March 25, 2025, announcing its plans to terminate a program granting humanitarian parole and employment authorization to qualifying nationals of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, a program commonly referred to as the “CHNV Parole Program.”. 

The termination of CHNV parole will take effect on April 24, 2025 ( or 30-days after the publication of the notice in the Federal Register if published after March 25th). As of the effective date, CHNV parolees and their immediate family members will lose their parole benefits, including their ability to remain lawfully in the U.S. and their employment authorization (even if their parole document or EAD card have a later expiration date). DHS expects all CHNV parolees who have not secured an alternative lawful means of remaining in the U.S. to depart by April 24, 2025. Those who do not depart the U.S. by that time may be subject to a process known as “expedited removal”  – a fast-track deportation process without a hearing before an Immigration Judge that carries with it a 5-year bar on reentry to the U.S.

What this means is that by April 24, 2025 more than half a million immigrants, plus their family members, all of whom are currently in the United States LEGALLY, will be expected to have disappeared from the U.S.

Bimbo #2 Kristi Noem and her degenerate sidekick Tom Homan will no doubt be enjoying an endless stream of mental orgasms at the thought of turning hundreds of thousands of lives inside out & upside down.

Who needs a Gestapo, when you’ve got ICE, run by misfits like Homan and Bimbo #2?
