    Holy crow this is bad. Nunes is trying to get top secret intelligence that will out a Russian source. His unethical crusade to stop Mueller could actually cost lives and irreparably damage US intelligence gathering efforts. This is nuts.

    Directing banks to "review their relationship" with *anyone* involved in the Convoy, and provide information to CSIS (!?!) and the RCMP is HUGE. This has massive implications for the lives of the people in this thing, and I don't know if they've realized this. ⬇️

    Is the @nytimes drunk? Where are the guns? Look, Ottawa police have not covered themselves in glory here but what they are doing is not "at gunpoint". Who is behind the wheel at NYT Canada?

    Okay - I will say this, the financial measures being announced are BIG and possibly lend more credibility to invoking the Emergencies Act. Requiring all crowdfunding platforms to register with FINTRAC, seizing bank accounts, is significant.

    Biggest public myth of the Convoy is that they were about mandates & turned bad. They were organized by anti-government extremists, who use extremist tactics & are attracting more extremists. Even if they succeeded in framing it around an issue that attracted wider support.
    5 Things I hear most often from all sides re protests: 1: Failure of Police: Loss of faith in police to enforce the basic laws. 2: Anarchists: the Truck protestors have long abandoned their “vaccine mandate” message and have become lawless, conspiracy minded anarchists….1/4

    In light of the attack from the Invisible Enemy, as well as the need to protect the jobs of our GREAT American Citizens, I will be signing an Executive Order to temporarily suspend immigration into the United States!

    Whoa -> Trudeau just said Canada Border Services Agency is turning away “non-Canadians” trying to join the Convoy/Occupation of Ottawa. Disturbing that Americans and others now trying to contribute more than money. This to me is the most disturbing ing line in the speech.
