"[Trump] needed to break some guy in Ontario who said he was going to tax American energy… and breaks him, breaks him… by a tweet!”

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Doug Ford:

“[Trump] needed to break some guy in Ontario who said he was going to tax American energy… and breaks him, breaks him… by a tweet!”

Earlier today, Doug Ford @fordnation claimed that he was extended an olive branch. He lied. As did the CBC.

@WogPogReal invited me to a X space where we discussed what actually happened on that call as i left WA.

I was told Lutnick would publicly call Ford out. He just did. https://t.co/5YxXGAmJBq pic.twitter.com/30LWi13D2B
