Since taking office, U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly called out the National Guard to enforce law and order in American cities. Generally, he does so under the color of protecting federal facilities and enabling Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to pursue undocumented immigrants in the face of sometimes violent opposition, though he also invokes the supposedly “lawless” nature of Democrat-run jurisdictions (which are, to be clear, not well-run). This way, he can argue both that his political opponents are defying the federal government and that they’re too incompetent to govern. Read More

There has been a good deal of nasty talk recently, especially in notoriously Liberal journalistic circles, about dissenters crumbling away from Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre into the outstretched arms of the Liberal government, straining to scavenge itself into a parliamentary majority. The customary version is that the Liberals are rubbing their hands in glee at this anticipated Conservative disintegration but prayerfully hope that it will not shake out the Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre, whom they believe to be a permanent doormat for them on the threshold of the prime minister's residence, (if it is ever ready for reoccupation).

The Conservative ranks shrank by two slots this month. Considering who was lost and the circumstances of their departure, it alone doesn’t tell us much about the party. It does, however, tell us a lot about media bias. Read More
