POWERCAST: LOSER TRUMP GOES FULL FASCIST, CANADIAN MEDIA COWARDS, FIGHTING THE MAPLE MAGA
As we witness Trump sinking deeper into his historic status as a LOSER, he is doubling down on his fascist tendencies by promoting Stephen Miller to Chief of Staff. This alarming move signals a troubling trend not just in the United States but also across the globe. With Netanyahu losing his grip on power in Israel and Putin acutely aware of the impending Democratic Congress, these three figures are becoming increasingly dangerous as their tyrannical impulses intensify.While the MAGA movement may be faltering in the U.S., we can't ignore the right-wing Maple MAGA that persists throughout Canada. The ongoing Trump trade war is a fierce reminder that now is not the time to back off from our Canadian boycott! Yet, disturbingly, the cowardly corporate media seems all too willing to roll over in the face of this threat.That's why it's more crucial than ever to listen to strong voices in our community. Join the leader of the Canadian Resistance, Charlie Angus, as he sits down with host Laura Babcock on #Powercast for an unfiltered discussion on the state of democracy and the challenges that lie ahead.
