Wow. Sidney Reid, the DC woman just found not guilty of assaulting an FBI agent, issues a withering and gutsy statement on Trump through her attorneys.

"I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump's irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man."

It's a must-read:

A post from X by William Kory Amyx, who is running for Congress in Indiana. It reads:

Today, news broke that Charlie Kirk was shot while speaking at Utah Valley University.

Let me be blunt: I will not pretend to feel sorry for Charlie Kirk. For years, he has profited off division, peddled conspiracy theories, and targeted marginalized groups with rhetoric so toxic it has made this country less safe. He has called for public executions, mocked trans people as โ€œabominations,โ€ treated politics like a holy war โ€” and in 2023, he even said that gun deaths were an โ€œunfortunateโ€ but acceptable price to keep the Second Amendment.

Today, he became part of the very toll he once dismissed. That doesnโ€™t make him a martyr โ€” it makes him a cautionary tale about what happens when leaders treat human lives as expendable.

That doesnโ€™t mean I condone what happened. Political violence is wrong โ€” always. It poisons our democracy, no matter who the target is. If we go down that path, America as we know it collapses.

But hereโ€™s the truth: when you spend years throwing gasoline on the fire, you donโ€™t get to act shocked when flames break out. Charlie Kirk built a career out of incitement. Heโ€™s not a victim of political violence so much as he is one of its architects.

This is a reminder that words have consequences. Leaders โ€” real leaders โ€” should be lowering the temperature, not raising it. They should be uniting people around solutions, not cashing in on fear and hate.

Hi. I know I've said this before, but it bears repeating: we have to be able to criticize Mark Carney without living in fear that doing so will help Poilievre or weaken Canada. He is our Prime Minister. Out of anyone, he deserves to be watched and critiqued. We should all be dying on this hill.

What's also a shame is that Postmedia has announced that the government funding they receive is a key part of their business strategy.

We're funding our own Conservative propaganda machine with our tax dollars.
