What's called sending a message. It _sounds_ incompetent but isn't.

"When federal agents came to the home of David Morens on Monday with an arrest warrant for allegedly concealing federal records related to the debate about the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic, they behaved as if the 78-year-old retired scientist was a violent criminal.

Science has learned that Morens, an influenza researcher who worked at the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) until 2022 and was an aide to its former director, Anthony Fauci, was having his morning coffee at his Chester, Maryland, home when he heard loud pounding on the door. He opened it to find a half-dozen federal agents carrying guns and wearing tactical gear, including bulletproof vests, according to two sources who spoke with him but asked not to be identified. Another team of officers stood in the distance and observed, as did neighbors.

The agents did not harm Morens, but took off his pants and shirt, handcuffed him, and drove him 65 kilometers to the U.S. District Court in Greenbelt, Maryland, where he was fingerprinted, photographed, and jailed. He was released on his own recognizance later in the day, but was asked to return to Greenbelt and surrender his passport, which he did."

And with a thud felt on every doorstep, the Austerity Times of Mark Carney's Liberal government lands.

Massive layoffs on the way in the public service, likely starting at Canada Post.

Everyone remembers what came after the government of the last austerity-Liberal Prime Minister Paul Martin*, right? RIGHT?

(shockingly, also a "Finance Guy”)

You can’t cry persecution if you can prosthelytize for your religion in a corporate document for a secular company on the Meet the Team page.

Non- Christians can’t do that. Fortunately, I think most non-christians WON’T do that out of respect for others beliefs.
