hackers have apparently knocked the
fundraising site gibson go offline
targeting a campaign that's raised
nearly nine million dollars to support
the canadian truckers protesting coveted
mandates thirty of those truckers now
face fines up to one hundred thousand
dollars after being arrested at the
ambassador bridge which links the u.s to
canada sunday night's hack briefly
replaced gibson goes page with a clip
from the movie frozen and a manifesto
accusing it of supporting quote an
insurrection in ottawa the hackers also
claim to have leaked the names of donors
to a third party website which is now
offering to share it with the media
joe koncha your thoughts
insurrection boy that word's really been
watered down lately huss addition uh it
gets applied to everything these days
including you know protests uh but but
the big question i think is where is
prime minister uh justin trudeau at this
point because problems and disputes
don't get resolved by hiding or by
calling
these truckers white supremacists or
nazis and the fact that the american
people is so squarely on the side of the
canadian government here and not the
working-class people who are simply
voicing their concerns about freedom
that that speaks volumes and by the way
no one wants to talk about the science
and the data around covid by the way in
canada because cases are down there 90
compared to exactly one month ago just 4
400 cases yesterday in a country of 37
million people so why again is a vaccine
mandate needed here given transmission
is dropping precipitously for a
profession where the worker is almost
always isolated from the public so if
trudeau just applied logic here he would
simply state like democratic governors
have in this country hey look the virus
is rapidly declining and now maybe the
mandate isn't needed it would give him a
win it would he would give give him the
ability to save face and truckers as
well would get what they're looking for
here uh but he won't do that because he
is impossibly and stunningly stubborn
that's right and liz peek wrote an
article sort of asking that she said
what if justin trudeau had met with the
truckers on their first day and actually
heard them and listened to them would
the situation have been diffused a long
time ago by them simply feeling that
they at least had the respect of someone
listening to them on taking under
advisement what they were arguing now
kennedy vivek ramaswamy had an
interesting
sound bite let's listen to it wait your
thoughts on the other side
you think this is about vaccine mandates
or about white supremacy you're missing
the point and this isn't a left or right
issue this is about an uprising of
everyday citizens in democracies around
the world it's not just canada it's not
the united states it's western europe
too rising against the biggest threat to
actual democracy which i think is the
rise of this managerial class in
democracies around the world that are
crushing the will of everyday people
through bureaucracies and that's why
we're seeing a fusion of both the left
and the right here saying that actually
we want our voices
heard he's not wrong and we saw that
frankly throughout the pandemic with the
government using the health departments
in addition to the doj and criminal
prosecutions as a way of wielding their
power against average ordinary americans
trying to do their job yes and and osha
being given the job of making sure that
every company with over 100 employees
was
making their employees
be vaccinated glenn reynolds wrote a
great piece in the new york post he's a
professor
he has written extensively about
education and economics and he says that
this is actually an uprising of the
working class now communists and
socialists and democratic socialists say
that that's what they've always wanted
but the proletariat is rising up to
overthrow the state it's too much
authoritarianism it's too many mandates
it's too much taxation it's too much
control and they just assume you know to
vivek's point about the managerial class
that they will tell workers what to do
and they will fall in line these are
people who work hard they think for
themselves and they're not having it
anymore because you know a lot of this
that we were told they were conspiracy
theories and now they've revealed
themselves to be facts people have been
lied to and they're sick of it
you know what's interesting uh and kind
of stands out to me is that if the
administration's goal is to try to stave
this off from happening in the united
states it's already happening tammy
bruce and i go deep about this like on
the faulkner focus we get all in it
because the great resignation of 38.6
million people by october of last year
was a huge thumb in the face of those
mandates
partly
we don't know the how high the
percentage got of those people just
simply saying we don't want to be told
what to do we're going to stay home
and spend that money that the governor
government is giving us for the period
of time that it lasts but but that was
part of it we know that from people
because they say now look it's not that
we don't want to get a vaccine we just
don't want to be mandated well doesn't
that sound like an echo of what some of
those truckers are saying
with 90 of them vaccinated in the union
we got that from our reporter last hour
alexis mcadams who's on the ground in
ottawa
so you know you've got that part of it
but you also have this sense of the
school board parents
the school board versus parents and and
how the doj decided to sick the fbi on
those dissenting parents because
their
pushback on mandates over masking and
classrooms and other restrictions
were also something that they wanted to
tamp down look it hasn't been working in
this country already so if the white
house thinks that they can call justin
trudeau and say hey you better get a
handle on that before it spreads here or
whatever that phone call was like
um that that's a ridiculous notion we're
already getting practiced at it here and
you know what we do in america we do it
bigger and better
that's right molly uh you had a strong
reaction to the cbc there in canada
writing an article and a tweet about the
use of the word freedom
yes the cbc said that that freedom is a
word used by right wingers and they
tried to explain the whole thing it
sounded positively orwellian and it is
exactly what's happening yeah the word
has become common among far-right groups
experts say so you know what they think
of everybody who believes in freedom
that you know they just like to
disparage them as far far-right people
um but what i think is fascinating is
that the establishment in so many
different countries claims that they
care so much about democracy and that
we're in this really important moment
for democracy and yet anytime that there
is a democratic uprising that threatens
their power they absolutely crush it as
they're doing there and i thought biden
asking it to be crushed indicates that
he's worried about similar things
happening in the u.s
that's right and as kennedy always says
