🇬🇧 Rupert Lowe, MP for Reform, on X: "We should call DEI what it is. Anti-white racism.

🇬🇧 Rupert Lowe, MP for Reform, on X: "If raising legitimate concerns about the brutal impact of immigration, legal and illegal, makes me 'far-right', 'racist', or whatever else?

Then so be it.

For too long, our language has been policed in this sinister way. No more.

We must be honest with the British people."

🇺🇸"Wow, I believe that it's the first time in decades that the US officially renounces hegemony and acknowledges multipolarity. There's no overstating just how massive a shift this is.

In fact, given that this time around we're facing "poles" that are categorically non-Western, it's probably the first time in centuries that the West officially acknowledges we're in a world which it doesn't lead anymore."

🇺🇸 Secretary of State Marco Rubio:

‘It’s not normal for the world to simply have a unipolar power, that was an anomaly, that was a product of the end of the Cold War. But eventually you’re going to return back to having a multipolar world…we face that now with China, and to some extent Russia.’

Marco Rubio may still be a foreign policy hawk, but this is the first admission ever from the top brass of a US administration that the US cannot and will not be the dominant unipolar power forever.

At the very least, accepting this new reality and understanding that other great powers will act in their own best interest and not bow and accept Washington’s orders can lead to a more peaceful and stable world.

For its part, Canada plans to put a 25% tariff on $155 billion worth of US goods, including beer, wine and bourbon, fruits and fruit juices, vegetables, perfume, clothing and shoes.”

When asked about Trump’s threat to issue even harsher tariffs if Canada retaliates to the new US tariffs, Trudeau said that would not stop him from making his countermove and that all the leaders of the Canadian provinces agreed.

Earlier Saturday, Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo ordered retaliatory tariffs on the US and blasted Trump’s suggestion that the Mexican government harbors alliances with criminal organizations and cartel members.

Sheinbaum said she had told her economy minister “to implement Plan B” which she said “includes tariff and non-tariff measures” though it was not clear what those measures were exactly.
