State Funeral - FordNation's understanding of "Last Rights".
Shurely the pall bearers will be disadvantaged youth from the Don Bosco football team.
Nope, didn't even cross my mind. AFAIK Graeme was into adults and really, who knows what his motives were for taking his own life?
Not the detail of *who* he was into; more, the strange cloud looming over him and the "how did *this* guy get vetted" subtext.
Come to think of it, maybe not to a "toilet cam" degree, but there *must* be some indiscretionary story related to Graeme's restaurateur/sommelier Vancouver past--which may explain why he moved to Toronto in the first place, as well as why that alternate career option was off the table...
Post-Chicago melee, Marco Rubio hints that the protests "seemed orchestrated" and invokes the Doug Ford line that "paid protestors" are involved.
Can't these Republicans make up their own shit?
There's something to this. Trump may be a dick but you'd probably accept an invitation to drinks at his pad. Go drinking with the Fords and you'd probably end up gouging out your eyes with a fork.If anything, Doug's probably seething with frustrated jealousy over Trump pulling off this shtick, and on a much larger stage than the Fords would ever be capable of managing. Give Trump this (hateful pig though he is), thanks to his years in 'reality' tv, the Donald knows how to work the media. He's also proven himself to be a first class demagogue. The Fords, by contrast, are strictly amateur hour: lazy, inept, not very bright. Once you get to know them, they're really quite dull...and dull witted. As we've seen from their own attempts at television, they simply don't have the chops for sustained exposure to the public in an entertainment format. Not even Rofo, who's supposed to be the popular one.
I suppose they did a little better on the radio, but, y'know, big fuckin' deal.

And Idi Amin would love to have you for dinner, but that doesn't mean you should accept.On the contrary, Cllr. John Fillion claims Doug is a surprisingly good lunch companion.
