“At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch… into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch,” Trump wrote on the social media platform.
Trump added that the arch near the National Mall will “house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage.”
I’m also in Canada, but I’m a bit more optimistic about our direction. When you zoom out and look at Canada’s usual electoral cycles, the last election should have been an absolutely guaranteed Conservative win. The fact that we allowed the Liberals to pivot rightward (but not nearly as far as the Conservatives), and not only retain control of government, but actually gain seats, presents a major deviation leftward from our usual pattern.
