TREE HOUSE NEWS 🏡

Land of Whispering Pines 🌲

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

It's another beautiful day here in the Newsroom. I moved my station to the kitchen table, next to the sliding glass doors that overlook my green space (balcony). It's nice to see the sun and feel the cool air of a July morning. At least situated here among the trees of the park and the creek, all around the back section of the building, the air is reasonably fresh up here. It's like a real treehouse.

I am doing rather well at the moment. Even when I got up this morning, I was zipping around like a teenager doing stuff. But it was when I went to sit in my greenspace that I suddenly got a terrible headache, I mean, bending over pain, just suddenly. Took a Tylenol 500 mg and it went away. I wondered if it was a psychological thing. Just prior to the headache, I was preparing the coffee when I went to throw something in the garbage. I was examining the dent in the trash can lid, where a picture of Joe Biden had fallen off the wall the night before, actually, it was 3:00 am Wednesday.

It gave me the shivers thinking about that. Is this an omen? The sudden pain and Joe's picture. That night, the noise that the picture made was hitting the top of the garbage can. Imagine someone banging on a metal garbage can lid with a hammer. That's another story. We both thought some animal had broken in from the balcony, because that's where the sound seemed to have come from. Imagine me in my nightgown with my cane held at the ready to swing.

Ω VIVE LA RESISTANCE Ω

"RESISTANCE!"

I just met a Canadian Trumpeter. I was seething within at the ignorance and blindness, but there is no sense in arguing with a fascist dead tree stump, was my response. We will see in another six months or so when the seams begin to rip open on those jeans, then the 💩 will fall out for all to see. I ended the conversation right there, about the Orange snot bag.

Judge by the actions, not the words of a lying, slimy, venomous snake! If you don't believe me, what about USAID, Medicaid, and Medicare, Food Stamps (SNAP), school lunch programs, Meals on Wheels for the Elderly, and aid to education? Prescription medication? Where will all those fired federal employees live this winter? The results of these reactions should be enough to reveal the insanity of it all. Dunces, what's the end result thus far with a Dunce in Chief and his Dunce Brigade? In six more months, America will be another Ethiopia!

One way to fight back, if there are enough of you by now that are sick of that snot bag to the point of gagging themselves with a spoon, STOP PAYING TAXES. It's your money, and the Trumpet wouldn't have enough Dunce Brigade to collect the tax personally. And Revenue Agents are not welcome on my property 👩‍🌾. I am also certain that there are still some true Americans with their values, ethics, the Constitution, laws, and democratic principles still intact. The true American that still lives in their hearts, empathy, not apathy. Not the present sadistic, fascist creeps, the Orange snot bag & dunce brigade.

Let's have A Party ...

I mean I don't give a damned if you are Republican, Democrat, the Green Party, blue, black, purple, pink, yellow, red, plaid, tangereen, opaque, 🫥 , or invisible 👻 "Let's have a party!"...

Trump will join tour of Federal Reserve's renovation project, escalating pressure campaign on Fed chair

President Donald Trump will join a tour of the Federal Reserve building in Washington, DC, this afternoon, a sharp escalation in his pressure campaign on the body’s chairman Jerome Powell over the central bank’s renovation project and interest-rate policy.

The visit, set for 4 p.m. ET, had been previously scheduled as an opportunity for members of Trump’s staff to observe a renovation project of the Fed’s historic headquarters, which has gone well past budget and which the White House says may have violated planning requirements.

Trump said last week he believed the $2.5 billion renovation project could be a fireable offense. Later, however, Trump said he had no plans to fire Powell — which his advisers have warned could set off a worldwide economic calamity and would be immediately challenged in court. On Tuesday, Trump seemed to acknowledge the central banker would be in the role until his term ends next May.

He has nicknamed Powell “Too Late” and pointed to him as a reason the economy isn’t running at full throttle. Typically, presidents have avoided taking any steps that might appear to interfere in the central bank’s independence, particularly when it comes to the politically sensitive issue of interest rates.

Columbia agrees to pay over $220 million in deal with Trump administration to restore federal funding

Columbia University announced on Wednesday that it has reached a deal with the Trump administration following months of negotiation to restore federal funding to the school, in a move described by the administration as a “seismic shift” in its fight with elite higher education.

Under the terms of the deal to resolve several federal probes into allegations that it had violated anti-discrimination laws, Columbia did not admit to wrongdoing but agreed to pay the government a $200 million settlement over three years and an additional $21 million to settle US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission investigations.

In exchange, the university said in its statement, “a vast majority of the federal grants which were terminated or paused in March 2025 — will be reinstated and Columbia’s access to billions of dollars in current and future grants will be restored.” Columbia said the agreement also codifies policy changes it announced in March following the revocation of $400 million in federal funding over campus protests, including restrictions on demonstrations, new disciplinary procedures and immediately reviewing its Middle East curriculum.

Inuit leaders meet Carney in N.W.T. to talk nation-building projects

PM continuing outreach following passage of Bill C-5

Prime Minister Mark Carney is meeting Inuit leaders Thursday in Inuvik, N.W.T., as he ramps up his outreach to Indigenous communities about his plan to fast-track major nation-building projects.

Inuvik, one of Canada's northernmost towns, is hosting the prime minister, several cabinet ministers and Inuit leaders for what's known as the Inuit-Crown Partnership Committee on Thursday. "So this [meeting] could be contentious, or it could be a moment in time where we come together and bring our homeland into Canada in a way that never has happened before," said Natan Obed, the president of the national Inuit organization, Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami.

Carney and Obed are co-chairing the meeting, which is expected to have a heavy focus on the Liberal government's major projects law.
