An old story, but it might be part of the reason behind Trump crapping on Panama now > **[Trump Companies Accused of Tax Evasion in Panama](https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-companies-accused-tax-evasion-panama)** > > In the latest chapter in ongoing litigation, the private equity fund that bought what used to be called the Trump Ocean Club claims the Trump entities pocketed money that should have gone to the Panamanian government. ---

This is where we’re going, unfortunately. Trump is slowly but surely giving the perception that Canada is “weak” and doing a poor job protecting the United States from its enemies. It’s always the same stupid playbook. Americans create these fantasies about national security just to invade another country. ---

His second term seems like it might already be worse than expected and he hasn’t even been sworn in. ---

The only former hockey player who had aspirations of being Prime Minister was Ken Dryden who ran for the Liberal Party leadership after serving as a Cabinet MInister. At the leadership convention he was fifth out of five candidates. Dryden, a Cornel graduate, with a law degree from McGill was probably the most articulate hockey player in history. American hockey fans would know him as the color commentator with Al Michaels for the Miracle on Ice. ---

38,000 American fatalities building the Panama canal sounded high so i checked. Best estimate is about 5,600. The French lost about 22,000 primarily due to malaria in their failed attempt.
