- Reposted by Dave Leitch and the Leitch LabThere is an old word to describe going to a foreign power and asking for their assistance in breaking up a sovereign country — it’s treason. Canadians are standing together in defence of this beautiful land. 🇨🇦

- This is a disgraceful statement, signifying nothing. Pattison and everyone else involved in this *should* be ashamed, but that assumes they are capable of feeling shame. I hope the locals in Virginia block this sale since Pattison is too cowardly/greedy to say no to enabling a concentration camp.

- Reposted by Dave Leitch and the Leitch LabDOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."
