TREE HOUSE NEWS 🏡

Land of Whispering Pines 🌲

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

It's another beautiful, sunny morning. 🌅 However, it was getting a little too warm after the sun cleared the tree tops. So, after having my coffee in my green space, I came back in and turned on the A/C. 💨 My partner was up, so I had another coffee, and we had a conversation about some of the brighter things in life, as well as the world of the obscure, such as the idea that all of what we call reality had to be a thought. If something didn't think it, how could this reality as we know it be here? You know, the concept of the Trinity in time and space encompasses, as I see it, the Creator, Creation, and the Created. Most people don't discuss such things first thing in the morning. The cerebral cortex was at work until the sh-t hit the fan, and my train of thought went off the tracks into the swamp, after the news below popped up on my phone.

TODAY'S DISCUSSION

Amarican Gestapo

As I have personally christened them the Dunce Brigade! with the IQ of a deforested forest dead tree stump, complete with the grubs and other assorted bugs. Of course, the bugs have a higher IQ.

Canada-Mexico trade deal, perhaps even hinting at Brazil and Greenland.

Eat your own 💩 America! I thought and prayed that there might still be hope, a chance. These are truly a very sad time. 😭😢Canada has its lumps, but we never hurt anyone, except maybe kick each other in the shin bones now and again, but we look after our own, we have the Band-Aids and medicine. We were always there for America—the Peace Keepers. We never looked for trouble, but we were there when trouble arose. But that dumb orange slime bag hates us Canadians for whatever reason in his crazy, psychopathic, narcissistic, sadistic, pedophilia, dotering old fart of a mind gone to mush. America must think very LOW of itself and should be ashamed to vote for such an idiot cockroach.🪳

This is live from Bizarroland with Kink Orange Sh-t bag and his merry dunce cadets (Gestapo) hit again.*_

NOW WE HAVE BULLIES AND GESTAPO ATTACKING CANADIANS

Who is next to get enrolled into The Great Dictator Donald Trump's Gestapo regime, the Coast Guard? The armed forces might be. Now we are finding out how many backstabbers, hate mongers, and swastika flag-wavers there are in the Great U.S. of A, the last place you would think would go Nazi, and the last to have its armed forces accepting this pile of Nazi. 💩💩💩 Have you Americans lost all sense and sanity over one piece of orange sh-t? 💩💩💩 A big pile of sh-t 💩💩💩 is turning everything to 💩💩💩 and no one seems to mind. WAKE THE F UP! The whole country is turning into a big pile of! 💩💩💩

'I don't look for trouble': Canadian fisherman claims he was falsely detained by U.S. Coast Guard

A fisherman in Canada is prompting questions about the laws of Lake Champlain after a recent encounter on the water. 60-year-old Édouard 'Ed' Lallemand has lived in Clarenceville, Quebec for decades and has been fishing for even longer. "I'm not a troublemaker. I don't look for trouble," said Lallemand. "That's the only thing I do in life. I work, I love my wife and my kids, and I fish." On Sunday, July 20, the U.S. Coast Guard came across Ed and his boat and told him he was fishing in U.S. waters and that he was subject to customs boarding. Ed claims he was not and that he was hundreds of feet away from the point where the two countries meet.

Canada should respond by posting its own Coast Guard along the waterways border to watch the American Coast Guard. America can shove its border up its Nazi arse!

The US economy rebounded sharply in the second quarter

The US economy expanded sharply in the second quarter as businesses dialed back on imports after stocking up earlier in the year to get ahead of President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Gross domestic product, which captures all the goods and services produced in the economy, registered an annualized rate of 3% in the April-through-June period, the Commerce Department said Wednesday.

That’s up sharply from the -0.5% rate in the first quarter, which was the first quarterly GDP decline since 2022. Economists polled by data firm FactSet estimated second-quarter GDP to come in at a 2% rate.

Tariff-driven buying frenzies in the beginning of the year have made it difficult to asses the underlying health and direction of the world’s largest economy. In the first quarter, surging imports took a toll on economic growth, but that trend reversed in the second quarter as businesses drew from their existing inventories instead of importing, in turn boosting GDP...

Trump says Epstein poached young women from Mar-a-Lago. That raises new questions about what he knew

President Donald Trump wants to move on from his administration’s fiasco over the Jeffrey Epstein files, but he keeps hampering that effort by opening his mouth.

The most recent instance has to do with precisely why the two men had a falling out about two decades ago. Trump acknowledged on Tuesday that the employees who he said Monday that Epstein poached from him, triggering their breakup, were young women who worked in the spa at his Mar-a-Lago club.

“The answer is yes, they were,” he told reporters on Air Force One while traveling back from Scotland. The answer doesn’t just call into question Trump’s honesty about his relationship with Epstein, but also his potential knowledge of the accused sex trafficker’s misconduct. (Trump has not been accused of any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein.)

A day earlier, the president said they’d fallen out because Epstein “stole people that worked for me” – including after he had warned Epstein not to do it again. But Trump had made no mention of the employees being young women. And the White House last week had said Trump barred Epstein from his Mar-a-Lago club “for being a creep.” (Trump on Tuesday said the two reasons were “sort of a little bit of the same thing.”) ...

Japan, Hawaii and Russia downgrade tsunami warnings after powerful earthquake

No widespread damage so far where strong ocean waves have already washed ashore

8.8 magnitude quake causes small tsunamis in Japan, Alaska and Hawaii. Authorities in Japan, Russia and Hawaii downgrade tsunami warnings Warnings extend as far as North and Central America and New Zealand

Authorities urge people to stay away from shorelines, warn risk could last more than a day One of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded struck off Russia's sparsely populated Far East early Wednesday, sending tsunami waves into Japan, Hawaii and the U.S. West Coast. Several people were injured, but none gravely, and no major damage has been reported so far.

Authorities warned the risk from the 8.8 magnitude quake could last for hours, and millions of people potentially in the path of the waves were initially told to move away from the shore or seek high ground. But the danger already appeared to be lessening in some places, with authorities downgrading their warnings in Hawaii, Japan and parts of Russia...

Charging a soldier with terrorism may be a first, but Canadian military has history of extremism in its ranks

The alleged Quebec City militia plot puts Forces' uneven track record on extremism back in spotlight

Early on the morning of July 8, RCMP officers arrested four suspects — two of them active military members — in an alleged plot to form an anti-government militia. The Mounties maintain the group had stockpiled a trove of weapons, including dozens of firearms and 11,000 rounds of ammunition, as part of a plan to take control of a piece of land near Quebec City by force.

Three of the suspects, including one of the active military members, are facing terrorism charges. A judge will rule Thursday whether to grant them bail...
