‘Just F**ing Shoot Them All‘: Verified Twitter Accounts Call for Retribution
Twitter erupted in calls for retribution on Wednesday, as accounts bearing the social network’s stamp of approval — the blue “verified” checkmark — called for Trump supporters to be shot.
At least the media finally came around to the idea that riots are scary
CNN’s Jake Tapper, Dana Bash, and others were aghast Wednesday as the nation watched thousands of President Trump’s supporters storm the Capitol, breaching the premises, and rioting within the building. Aside from all the violence, though, they were otherwise peaceful!
Finally, the media understand how dangerous mobs can be. Good timing.
To be sure, Wednesday’s events were grotesque. This is how liberals are expected to behave — such as when all of Washington, D.C., was boarded up in anticipation of how the locals would react if Trump won reelection. Republican-leaning precincts didn’t have to do any boarding up because that’s not expected of them.
Remember when this was ok? https://t.co/F1NWLvH3Zi

World Is Shocked, Appalled, Delighted at Mob Assault on U.S. Capitol Building
The world’s reaction to the assault on the Capitol building by pro-Trump mobs ranged from delight to horror, depending on their views of America.

History: The Boston Massacre
The Boston Massacre was a deadly riot that occurred on March 5, 1770, on King Street in Boston. It began as a street brawl between American colonists and a lone British soldier, but quickly escalated to a chaotic, bloody slaughter. The conflict energized anti-British sentiment and paved the way for the American Revolution.

‘NDP on Steroids’: Former Liberal Insiders Lament Party’s Veer to the Left
A former Liberal Party president and a former longtime Liberal MP say the party has veered too far to the left and alienated many veteran Liberals.

But McTeague says that his former party is now Liberal in name only.

Public Safety Minister Bill Blair revealed how China steals commercial secrets and technology from Canada and how the communist regime uses covert programs to silence overseas dissent.
In a letter to members of parliament, obtained by Global News, Blair said China is the most robust foreign interference actor in Canada, while Russia and several other countries are behind similar activities.
