Danielle Smith, a white supremacist supported christofascist who has talked about putting progressive politicians, "in the cross hairs" can choke on a fucking horse dick.

Conservatives shooting Conservatives, Conservative response? "Damn those progressives, they need to tone it down"

How about no Danielle? How about we keep on using our free speech to point out how terrible you are.

Does she mean the left when she says "progressive" or is she referring to herself and the like. Because they are the ones name calling people and using violence in their language.

Ah, yes, the victim card. Classic fascist play.

its not rhetoric when you are talking about what folks have written. Talk about reaping what you sow but unfortunately reaping goes all around when you sow like they do. https://youtu.be/BN5kBCTH-zk

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Alberta Premier Danielle Smith — who once told former Fox News personality Tucker Carlson she wished he would put a federal cabinet minister in his "crosshairs" — called on "progressive" politicians to temper their language Monday after former U.S. president Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt.

Speaking to reporters as premiers gather in Halifax for the annual Council of the Federation, Smith said she's concerned about the language sometimes used to describe Canadian conservatives.

Smith and Guilbeault have been at odds over the federal government's climate policies, which the premier has said are far too restrictive and are punishing Albertans who rely on fossil fuels.

Speaking to a Toronto radio show on Monday, Poilievre, who has been accused of contributing to the deterioration of political decorum in Ottawa, said he doesn't plan on changing his tone following the shooting.

Pierson asked Poilievre about a tweet he sent out in the aftermath of the shooting condemning the attack and adding that he was "happy that the suspected shooter is dead" — which raised some ire online.

Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc has said top security officials in Canada have assured him they have increased their vigilance following the attack on Trump.
