Trump’s new tantrum | Truckers must prove proficiency in English language

U.S. President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order mandating that all truck drivers operating within the United States must demonstrate English language proficiency. The administration argues that this step is crucial to road safety, regulatory compliance, and national security. The order will require truckers to pass a language test — failure to do so may result in being placed out of service. However, Sikh advocacy groups have raised alarms, warning of potential discriminatory impacts on Sikh and other immigrant drivers. Is this a legitimate safety measure, or is it a policy wrapped in exclusion? #TrumpExecutiveOrder #TruckersEnglishRule #USATruckingPolicy #KarolineLeavitt #RoadSafety #TruckersRights #ImmigrantTruckers #SikhTruckers #TrumpNews #EnglishMandate #TruckingIndustry #DOTRegulations #TruckDriversUSA #BreakingNews #USPolitics #LanguagePolicy #SikhAdvocacy #PublicSafety #ExecutiveOrder #TruckerBan

Canadian PM Carney Slammed for Ignoring Palm Sunday While Celebrating Vaisakhi—'Political Pandering' [Video]

Canadian PM Carney Slammed for Ignoring Palm Sunday While Celebrating Vaisakhi—'Political Pandering'

Prime Minister Mark Carney is under fire after celebrating Vaisakhi at a Sikh temple in Ottawa while remaining silent on Palm Sunday, which fell on the same day. Wearing a yellow turban and serving at the langar, Carney’s gesture was praised by the Sikh community—but sparked backlash online from Christian groups and conservative commentators. Social media influencer Oli London accused the PM of “pandering” to Sikhs while ignoring Christian holidays like Palm Sunday and Passover. Critics are asking: Is this inclusive multiculturalism or selective symbolism? Meanwhile, defenders argue that events like Vaisakhi are about unity and should not be politicized. #MarkCarney #PalmSunday #Vaisakhi #CanadaPolitics #Multiculturalism #SikhCommunity #ReligiousFreedom #OliLondon #FaithAndPolitics #ChristianBacklash #CanadianPM #IdentityPolitics #Langar #CulturalControversy #Carney ~PR.274~ED.194~GR.121~HT.410~
