Donald Trump’s Latest Dig at Canada’s Prime Minister: The ‘Governor’ Nickname

By

-

In a move that’s turned quite a few heads, Trump calls Trudeau Governor instead of “Prime Minister” – and it’s already fueling tension between the two leaders. The U.S. president didn’t hold back while responding to Canada’s new retaliatory tariffs, slapping an undermining title on his North American neighbor’s head of government.

Escalating Tariffs Spark a War of Words

Recently, President Donald Trump announced tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, claiming they need to be “held accountable for illegal immigration and drug trafficking.” Canada got hit with a 25 percent tax on its exports to the U.S., plus a 10 percent tariff on energy products. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fired back by slapping American imports with a matching 25 percent charge. While the trade standoff was enough to raise eyebrows, Trump calls Trudeau Governor to mock him on social media, hinting he sees the Canadian leader as more of a subordinate than a fellow head of state.

Trump’s Unapologetic Nicknaming

In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he imposes new tariffs on the U.S., we’ll match it immediately!” Observers saw this pointed choice of words as a direct dig, undermining Trudeau’s office as Prime Minister. Trudeau was quick to respond in the press, slamming the U.S. for “starting a trade war with its closest partner,” questioning Trump’s logic in one breath while referencing how the White House approaches relations with Russia in another. And let’s not forget, this friction comes right after Trump’s public scuffle with other world leaders – from Zelenskyy to a push to rename the Gulf of Mexico and clamp down on birthright citizenship.

Fallout and International Reaction

The feud between the United States and Canada has already rattled supply chains and stoked fears among businesses on both sides of the border. As if these developments weren’t enough, China’s also incensed, threatening to retaliate after tariffs on its goods soared to 20 percent. Mexico hasn’t sat idle either – though it’s balancing carefully between economic concerns and political alliances. By labeling Canada’s PM a mere “governor,” the White House signals it’s ready to keep raising the stakes. As Trump calls Trudeau Governor repeatedly, tensions only seem to grow. Whether they’ll cool down or spiral into a full-blown trade war remains the burning question.

Diapers in my son’s backpack! What he was hiding?

By

Ever since my father’s passing, I’ve been incredibly overwhelmed with the idea to have his company running. He had built Riverside Developments from the ground up and I felt the urge to keep his legacy alive. Sadly, along the way, I neglected what was even more important, my own family.

As I was pouring myself coffee in the morning, my son, Jordan, greeted me. “Mom, I’m going to school.” I greeted him back and offered him a lift, but he refused.

Jordan was unusually quiet during the past couple of weeks, but I was so busy with my work that I haven’t had the time to talk to him and ask him if there was something that bothered him.

Then, one day, although aware I was invading his privacy, I decided to check on his room.

As I was going through his things, I spotted diapers in my son’s backpack.

“Why would Jordan need diapers?” I couldn’t stop asking myself. He was just 15, no one in the family had a baby, and I wasn’t aware of any of his friends having one either. So, instead of confronting him about it, I decided to follow him the following morning.

Jordan headed to school, but then he turned towards an unknown street. At the end of that tiny street was an old house. I expected Jordan to knock on that door, but instead, he took a key out of his pocket and opened the door himself.

My son had a key to someone else’s house. What was going on?

I was curious to learn the truth, so I rang the doorbell.

At that moment, Jordan appeared at the door, holding a baby in his arms.

“Jordan, honey, what is going on? Whose baby is this?” And then, behind him stood a man.

It was Simon, a man in his 60s that I fired some three months ago. He was asking for too many days off and I had to let him go.

What I wasn’t aware of, however, was that his daughter, Lisa, left her baby to him and disappeared from their lives.

Jordan turned out to be aware of Simon’s condition. He felt sorry for Simon and believed me firing him was the reason why he was left without any income.

Jordan was helping him with money. He was also babysitting baby Aaron whenever Simon needed to work there and then.

At that moment, tears started running down my face. How could I sack a man who was left to care for his baby grandson all by himself. I should have known better than that.

But Jordan was there to step in and “cover” for my mistake. I was proud of the young man I raised.

I offered Simon his position in my late father’s company again, and I even started helping him. From that moment on, I became more interested in my employees. I was no longer just a company owner, but also their support and friend.

The diapers in my son’s backpack led to a revelation that made me a better person.

They Demanded My Late Partner’s House, So I Set One Bold Condition

By
Bryan Seal
-

You wouldn’t believe the nerve: parents demanded house keys to a home I’d been helping pay off for years. My late partner, Jason, had worked tirelessly to afford that place—a milestone he proudly reached a decade ago. Four years ago, everything changed when he was diagnosed with cancer, and as his health took a turn, I stepped in to cover the mortgage. Little did I know that once cancer claimed his life, his estranged mom and dad would reappear, convinced the property was theirs to claim.

The Shocking Home Invasion Attempt

A month ago, they showed up out of nowhere, accompanied by a flashy lawyer. With zero compassion or even a simple “How are you holding up?” they demanded the keys. Their tone and sense of entitlement made my stomach churn. But I kept my cool. They had no clue I possessed a legal background. I quietly let them talk until they were done making threats, all the while thinking, “Wait until you read the letter Jason left for you.” After all, parents demanded house keys, but it wasn’t going to be that easy.

Jason’s Final Words

“He did leave you an inheritance,” I said, calmly sliding a sealed envelope across the table. Their eyes gleamed, smug and satisfied—until they read what Jason had to say. The letter revealed the harsh truth: in a legally binding document, he’d left them absolutely nothing. They’d abandoned him years ago, never showing up when he needed them most. And now, in death, he’d made sure they wouldn’t waltz in and take a single thing from the life he’d built. Their reaction was pure rage—heated demands to hand over the house, as if that letter had never existed.

My One Condition

Their fury only fueled my resolve. They might have wanted me to hand over the property by default, but I refused without fulfilling one condition: they had to read Jason’s note out loud, acknowledging his words in front of everyone. At that moment, parents demanded house keys once more, but the grief in their voices suggested they finally grasped how badly they’d hurt him. Still, I stood firm. This house meant more than bricks and a mortgage—it symbolized the love and commitment I shared with Jason in his final years.

Why I Walked Away

After they finished reading and sputtering angry retorts, I reminded them that the house legally belonged to me now. If they had known anything real about Jason—beyond chasing his money—they could’ve approached with empathy, not aggression. With that, I left them standing there, locked the door, and took a moment to breathe. Yes, parents demanded house keys, but compassion and support can’t be forced. If they’d loved him properly while he was alive, they wouldn’t have had to beg for anything after he was gone.

A 40-Year Reunion: Three Arrive, One’s Mysterious Note Changes Everything

By
Bryan Seal
-

Forty years ago, four best friends made a pact to meet again no matter what. When friends reunite 40 years later, three show up at the appointed beach—only to discover a note from the fourth friend saying he won’t come. Determined not to lose him forever, they set out on a journey to find out why he disappeared.

A Promise Made at Sunset

On a golden evening at Santa Monica beach, high school buddies Ben, Todd, Willie, and Karl sat on an old wooden bench. They were fresh out of school, excited yet anxious about their separate paths. Karl was set to leave for Spain, Ben had college in New York, and Todd aimed for Mexico, while Willie alone stayed in L.A. They wrote down addresses and phone numbers, but Willie wanted more. He urged them to return on the same day, at the same beach, but in 40 years. Laughter and skepticism filled the air. Then they sealed the promise with a final group hug.

Decades Apart

As life rolled on, the four led very different lives. Willie founded an IT company in Silicon Valley, Todd became a seasoned sailor before taking over his dad’s bait shop, and Ben rose to fame as a top lawyer. But they never forgot the vow that day by the ocean, even though Karl’s trail went cold years earlier. Whenever they tried contacting him, they hit a dead end. Still, they clung to hope that friends reunite 40 years later would include Karl eventually.

A Shocking Note

On the long-awaited date, Willie stood at Santa Monica beach, heart pounding with nostalgia. Soon, Todd arrived, then Ben. Karl, however, was nowhere in sight. Instead, they found a pinned note on their old bench:

“Todd, Ben, Willie,
I’m sorry I lost your numbers. I’ve arranged for this letter to reach you. I hope you’re all doing well. I’m not coming, but I love you guys more than anything. Don’t wait for me.
—Karl”

Concerned and confused, the three scurried off to Karl’s nephew Andrew for clues. Andrew admitted Karl had left the note with him. Sensing something was really wrong, friends reunite 40 years later turned into a rescue mission. They flew to Spain, chasing the last known address Andrew provided.

A Painful Reunion

They found Karl’s modest, nearly abandoned home. He opened the door using a crutch, looking frail and older beyond his years. Overcome with emotions, they hugged him. Karl confessed he’d suffered financial ruin and a spinal injury years ago, and he’d been too ashamed to admit it to them. By inventing tales of business success, he hoped they’d never pity him. Instead, his lies drove them apart.

Willie was furious. “We would have helped you, Karl! That’s what friends do.” Yet, behind the anger was relief to see he was still alive. Ben, Todd, and Willie insisted Karl return to Los Angeles for proper medical care. Todd even offered him a role at his bait shop afterward.

The Power of True Friendship

Karl, teary-eyed, hesitated but realized he couldn’t continue alone. Grateful and humbled, he packed his things. At the airport, Willie proposed another vow: “No more secrets. Let’s meet at this beach every June 11 until the end.” Smiling through tears, Karl agreed, understanding that, even when friends reunite 40 years later, life’s biggest blessing is a bond unbroken by time.

Jimmy Kimmel mocks Trump over transgender mice claim

By
Monica Pop
-

Yet again, Jimmy Kimmel called President Donald Trump, this time regarding his long speech in front of the Congress, which was the first since he has taken Office for the second time, and a claim Trump made about Biden financing making mice transgender.

The comedian questioned Trump’s and his administration’s ability to fact check, asking “Are they so dumb they don’t know how to google?”

“[Trump] spoke for 99 minutes last night with no intermission. It was the longest Presidential address in more than 60 years,” Jimmy Kimmel began his opening monologue. “Why is it that the orchestra can play off an Oscar winner but not the president?”

Kimmel then added: “Trump’s speech went on so long, his speech was ten minutes longer than The Lion King. True, and had twice as much lyin’ in it.”

ABC

The host spoke of Trump’s claim that the Biden administration spent $8 million on making mice transgender, which according to Kimmel and a number of outlets, isn’t a true fact.

“You know, you hear the president of the United States say we’re spending $8 million to do sex change operations on mice,” Kimmel said. “You say, ‘Well, I’m sure he’s exaggerating, but there must be something there.‘ Turns out there’s not. It’s not real.”

He went on to explain, “The government spent money on transgenic mice, which are genetically modified mice they use in lab tests to study disease.

”It has nothing to do with being transgender. Other than the word, the ‘trans’ part of the word. You think they know this and just ignore it, or are they so dumb they don’t know how to Google? Or maybe they think we’re so dumb we don’t know how to Google? I don’t know.”

Kimmel then joked, “They’re turning Mickeys into Minnies and Minnies into Mickeys!” before adding, “No, they’re just trying to cure dementia and heart disease, which you would think Trump would be for seeing as how they are both coming for him real soon.”

As per the Daily Beast, the spendings Trump referred to in his speech was actually money spent on testing “differences in the ways an HIV vaccine worked in mice that had received cross-sex hormone therapy.”

Kimmel then shifted focus on the lead of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk and his X-based AI tool, Grok that the tech-billionaire allegedly use to determine which federal employees to fire.

Donald Trump’s hot mic reveals his words to Justice John Roberts

By
Monica Pop
-

Before Donald Trump addressed the lawmakers for the first time as a president of the country, a role he has undertaken for the second time, he had a brief exchange with Bush-appointed Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts.

Trump’s words to Roberts caused a stir on the social media and triggered a number of rumors and conspiracy theories, pretty much as expected, we’d say.

As Donald Trump and Justice John Roberts shook hands and the president gave the judge a friendly pat on the arm, the microphone that was on revealed a chunk of their conversation.

“Thank you again. Thank you again. Won’t forget it,” Trump said.

Following the “incident,” The Daily Beast suggested a conspiracy that arose from the hot mic revelation, as reported by the Daily Mail. “It was not immediately clear what, exactly, Trump was thanking him for,” the publication stated before adding, “though [there] have been more than a few instances over the past few years of Supreme Court intervention in favor of the president.”

Author Paul Blumenthal argued, “Roberts gave Trump a get-out-of-jail-free card, and Trump is grateful.

“Whatever decisions are forthcoming from the court on Trump’s unlawful administration are now tainted by Trump’s gratitude to Roberts. He ripped the mask off the court’s pretensions to fairness and independence and revealed his most vital accomplice.”

President Trump took to Truth Social to comment on the speculations.

“The Fake ‘Play the Ref’ News, in order to create a divide between me and our great U.S. Supreme Court, heard me say last night, loudly and openly as I was walking past the Justices on the way to the podium, ‘thank you’, to Chief Justice John Roberts,” Trump wrote.

“Like most people, I don’t watch Fake News CNN or MSDNC, but I understand they are going ‘crazy’ asking what is it that I was thanking Justice Roberts for?”

He went on, “They never called my office to ask, of course, but if they had I would have told these sleazebag ‘journalists’ that I thanked him for SWEARING ME IN ON INAUGURATION DAY, AND DOING A REALLY GOOD JOB IN SO DOING! The Fake News never quits!”

During his address to Congress, Trump said that the ongoing war in Ukraine is on the top of the list of his priorities, alleging the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is “gambling with World War 3.”

JD Vance mocked for this tiny detail

By
Monica Pop
-

With his declaration that his political style was “just getting started,” President Donald Trump addressed the Congress on March 4, 2025, for the first time during his second terms as head of the country. But it was JD Vance that attracted the attention to the online community. Well, not as much as Trump’s words to lawmakers, but still.

Namely, JD Vance has found himself in the middle of a number of controversies. Among the rest, he made many angry with his statement that rogue judges have no jurisdiction over President Donald Trump’s “legitimate power.” Political experts and senators saw this as a form of the vice-president spreading a message that the Trump’s administration won’t comply to court orders.

This time, however, it was the pants of JD Vance that had many talking.

According to the netizens, JD Vance seems to be having a thing for three-quarter-length pants. He can be seen wearing a rather “short” pants during his public appearances, whether it is a news conference or a high-profile political event.

“What is with JD Vance short tight pants as he talks about real men and masculinity?” someone posted on X.

“Say hello to tiny pants vance,” someone else commented, alongside a photo of Vance at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). The photo shows his pants being just inches below his knees.

The rest of the comments were “Hold me closer tiny pantser,” and “Make pants great again for VANCE!”

The online community started mocking Vance by sharing photos of him with his short pants under the hashtag #TinyPantsVance.

“How can anyone take Vance seriously. His trousers are halfway up his legs,” a user joked.

“People might (might) listen if you got a pair of big-boy-vance pants. A pair that at least break on the foot arch and go mid-heel, not mid-calf, just who the hell dresses you,” another person posted.

“Tie too long, and pants too high. Is bro waiting for a flood?” someone else was quick to ask.

What are your thoughts on JD Vance’s fashion style?

Greenland responds to Trump’s desire to acquire the land with savage 10-word statement

By
Monica Pop
-

Greenland responded to the statement by Donald Trump that The United States will acquire their territory “one way or another,” with their Prime Minister, Múte Bourup Egede, writing “Kalaallit Nunaat is ours,” using Greenlandic for the “Land of People” or the “Land of Greenlanders,” as per AP.

Egede added: “We don’t want to be Americans, nor Danes; we are Kalaallit. The Americans and their leader must understand that. We are not for sale and cannot simply be taken. Our future will be decided by us in Greenland.”

His response, which was initially written in Greenlandic and Danish before being updated to include English, came following Trump’s message to the people of Greenland delivered on March 4.

Addressing the Congress, the POTUS said, “If you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.

“We need Greenland for national security and even international security.

“And we’re working with everybody involved to try and get it. But we need it really for international world security.”

Further, he said, “We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America. We will keep you safe. We will make you rich. And together we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before,” before adding: “And I think we’re going to get it – one way or the other, we’re going to get it.”

REUTERS

Greenland is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark on several islands including world’s largest island by the same name.

It has been part of the Danish Kingdom for 800 years and is an integrated part of its country.

Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen said he doesn’t believe Greenlanders’ wish is to separate from Denmark in order to become “an integrated part of America,” adding that the elections in Greenland that are to take place next week should be fair and free of international intervention.
