From Butts’ notes. This does nothing but confirm every damn word JWR has said. (And – PS – how does Butts have verbatim quotes? Did they tape her?)

Warren Kinsella: #LavScam legal: what it means now that PMO has lawyered up
The Globe and Mail has reported that Justin Trudeau and senior PMO staff have now retained independent legal counsel in #LavScam. I’ve helped organizations through legal/comms crises many times. I can tell you this is what this latest revelation means: • their ability to communicate openly about the file comes
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Globe: Trudeau, PMO staff hire outside lawyers in case RCMP probes #LavScam
Wow. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and senior officials in his office have retained outside legal counsel in case of an RCMP investigation into allegations of political interference in the criminal prosecution of SNC-Lavalin Group. Mr. Trudeau’s communications director, Cameron Ahmad, told The Globe and Mail on Friday that Treasury Board

The Liberal majority on the “Justice” Committee again voted to prevent Jody Wilson-Raybould from speaking. It didn’t go over well. None of it has gone over well. •Toronto Sun Campaign Research poll: “As for Trudeau himself, Yufest says he now stands at just 29% approval compared to 58% who think
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Ten things Trudeau did wrong at his #LavScam press conference
How bad was Justin Trudeau’s early-morning LavScam press conference? So bad CTV Your Morning’s Ben Mulroney asked aloud if the Liberal Prime Minister had made things worse for himself. So bad Bell Media radio host Evan Solomon called Trudeau’s statement “a word salad.” So bad I played a tape of
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Abacus Data #LavScam shorter version: #CPC up, @JustinTrudeau down
Our friends at Campaign Research are out with a national omnibus today, too, I believe. I suspect they are going to show the same thing (if not worse). Poll, methodology, etc. here.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: The “feminist” PMO wouldn’t be stupid enough to force female Liberal MPs to publish identical “personal” message of support, would they?
Well, actually, they would be that stupid. They are that stupid. Spotted by my sharp-eyed pal Sean Craig: PMO told female Liberal MPs to post personal messages about what a swell feminist he is – presumably to offset this growing controversy. Except a couple of the MPs just did a
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Your Saturday #LavScam roundup: Trudeau’s coddling of “ordinary evil”
National Observer: “…the most depressing spectacle of the entire affair is watching Justin Trudeau, a man who clearly aspires to greatness, debase himself and this nation, by begging, pushing, imploring Canada’s attorney general to let this company off the hook. Then effectively firing her when she wouldn’t comply, and allowing

The Imposter’s non-apology apology didn’t go so well. A summary of the commentariat, below: John Ibbitson, Globe and Mail: “At Thursday morning’s news conference, an unrepentant Justin Trudeau described the political crisis that has consumed his government as a failure to communicate. It was not. This crisis is about his
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: #LavScam shocker: the prosecutors react to Trudeau
An hour after the “Prime Minister” speaks, this. This is simply extraordinary. In all my years of lawyering, and trying to teach law, I have never seen something like this. It is the clearest indication, yet, what the Canadian justice system thinks about Justin Trudeau’s repeated efforts to obstruct justice.
Continue readingWarren Kinsella: Your morning #LavScam: the New York Times calls it “a spreading mess” and “a major blow”
I’ll be on CTV Your Morning today around 7, after Trudeau speaks this morning, and also doing the radio tying over on the mighty Newstalk 1010. This is the sort of thing I’ll be talking about: it didn’t go well, yesterday. At all. Editorial board of the New York Times:

Here, folks, is the chair of the Standing Committee on Justice literally ROLLING HIS EYES when an MP says "it is in the interest of justice" that @Puglaas be permitted to testify about the #LavScam scandal. Remember this moment on voting day. #cdnpoli #lpc #cpc #ndp pic.twitter.com/bO0TZsIEqQ — Warren Kinsella

Above: a Trudeau supporter physically attacks a protestor at Justin Trudeau’s rally in Toronto last night. Where – I’m not making this up! – they played Michael Jackson songs – on the same night ‘Leaving Neverland’ was airing. And the great reviews keep rolling in! Globe Ipsos poll: “Most Canadians

I fundraised for her, before she was elected. I have remained friends with her since. And I am so, so proud of her today. “I have lost confidence in how the government has dealt with this matter.” This government is falling apart before our eyes.

The next time someone on Mr. Trudeau‘s payroll says to you that the issue is too complicated, or that it will be forgotten by Labour Day, read them this. #LavScam in 20 words or less: “The Prime Minister fired an honest, Western, female, Indigenous leader because she wouldn’t break the

If, say, you wanted to now wipe out the Liberal Party of Canada – if you wanted to eliminate any chances it might have in an election that is just 200+ days away – what would you do? Here’s what you would do: You would continue a smear campaign against
