Trump commuting Santos is not just a curiosity. It’s a feature of corruption… it’s a message… if you like me you can get away with anything. If we accept this as ok our kids will never forgive us

It's incredible I somehow made it 10 years in the news biz without being laid off but my luck ran out today. Sad to see a quality team torn apart. Spare a thought for your local journos who are ever being asked to do more with less, especially if you're tempted to dunk on the MSM.

The political party that very loudly and repeatedly suggested the 2024 provincial election (which was run by a globally respected independent agency) was rigged sure has some interesting irregularities going on in its leadership review vote.
