Good background thread here on the "Save the Children" movement. As always with far right "movements", it isn't what it claims to be.
People keep asking me what the deal is with this bizarre “Save the Children Convoy”?
Given Conservative MPs are now embracing this group, I decided to do a deep dive and write this backgrounder explaining their wide-range of extreme, conspiratorial and spiritual beliefs:

No doubt Vivek Ramaswamy's team is wondering how he, too, can get a mug shot of his own.

Vivek Ramaswamy's 15 minutes are here, showing yet again all the GOP base wants is trolling
Ramaswamy peddles lies, ignorance, and conspiracy theories with a shameless grin — no wonder MAGA loves the guy

With what looks to be a rather active fall infection season ahead of us, perhaps we should consider some type of government agency that oversees the health of the public? Just spitballing but might be a good idea.

Reading this Guardian article, I mentally inserted Doug Ford for every reference to Donald Trump. The resulting article reads well to describe what Ford is doing in Ontario. I wonder if Greenbelt fall guy Ryan Amato is taking questions today... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Looks like Ryan Amato, the predesignated "Fall Guy" for Doug Ford's Greenbelt heist, is on the job. Surely he will eventually be made whole. This is how mafia bosses operate.

This poll brings fabulous news. If the number of Republicans who won't vote Trump if he's convicted of a felony by a jury is only half what this poll suggests, then it's all over for Trump. Praise be. http://surl.li/jtbfm
