  • Justin Trudeau Accosted on Vacation / RIP Jimmy Carter — The Daily Beaver Morning Show
    Jan 6 2025

    On Episode 545 of our show, Mr. Grizzly is back!


    Hoooooo-wheeee, Kits 'n' Kubs, while we were out making merry, in politics, they were singing: " 'Tis the season to be angry! ", so much so that this is going to come across more as a hot gossip show... And it's: "Mmm... Mmm... Juicy!"


    In Canada, they're trying to push Justin Trudeau out. In the USA, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, Laura Loomer, Steve Banning, Matt Gaetz, etc. are destroying each other and MAGA.


    More knives out than a Michael Myers kitchen party!


    Today we talk about:

    * RIP Mr. President. Jimmy Carter Dies at 100.

    * An Interesting Edit

    * Media Literacy Moment: Toxic Opinions

    * Do Wayne and Janet Talk to Each Other

    * Of Confidence Motions

    * The Broligarchs vs MAGA

    * Cameron Alexander Wins Bronze in Bormio

    * LATVIA?!?
