That is the point-there is nothing to be found, but they will eventually find something to nail him with, to make him step down with any claim.
Remember the old rule about dealing with the opponent, to eliminate an unvented case:
1 Deny
2 Belittle
3 Accuse the accuser

The video has been edited. Seeing the raw footage would be more helpful on what actually occurred and if Menzies provoked the response.
But Rebel never misses an opportunity for phony outrage and to beg for donations from their listeners. Levant conducts himself more like a televangelist than a journalist. He's Canada's answer to Jim Baker.

I concur that the video was likely highly edited. I have ZERO respect and a deep abiding mistrust of MSM in general and the Rebel in particular. Slobber spit sceaming in the face of Police Constables showed remarkable restraint on their part. It was a common assault by the "reporter". He could have been arrested and charged with that and obstruction if they wanted to. De-escalation tactics worked even though the "reporter" was a motor-mouth moron.
Wise men learn from the mistakes of others. Smart men learn from their own mistakes. Many do neither.

Trump, as well as most notable conservative media figures told people not to go to the capitol, that it was a trap. There were paid Antifa agitators pretending to be Trump supporters in attendance, as well as behaviour from the police that is very suspect.
To compare a few imbeciles meandering around a building (where the only death was actually a white Republican female veteran) to the immense violence and anti-American rhetoric from leftists might meet the definition for clinically insane.

Do doubt your right, this so called reporter knows he is not going to get responses from any of the Leaders of all main political parties. My guess is that he probably tried to push by the security and thrust his microphone into the face of the Prime Minister.
He is basically an instigator or as we used to say a chit disturber.

Perhaps before you go all snow flake on me you could actually read a little about Mr Menzies as this is his usual MO a almost every event he attends, to get into peoples faces and try and cause a disturbance. You can ask what communists governments have to do with this post and if you agree with that post that it reflects how we are going as a government, I feel free to compare it to our southern cousins. Thanks for dropping in and giving me such an insightful post.

My take on this.
Firstly, this was no doubt assault and Rebel should absolutely press charges. He didn't appear to be blocking anything while standing on the sidewalk, and there were other people around in the same spot.
David having this type of thing happen to him before does not immediately equate to him being in the wrong. Rebel has several videos of violent leftists doing things they shouldn't, and they've always acted in a professional manner. Trudeau hates this outlet precisely because they are the only ones to ask hard questions. Like the commie he is, Trudeau silences and bullies his opposition. He belittles the organization when in fact they have a huge viewer base.
I agree with it being slightly annoying how they always ask for $ from their viewers, but they are viewer supported after all. They're not suckling on the liberal teat like other *totally credible & unbiased* outlets. So this is no different than go fund me or other other crowd sourcing things of that nature. But running a private business would seem strange to commies.
Lastly, and most importantly, no one should be celebrating this kind of treatment of journalists here in Canada, regardless of your politics. David being assaulted isn't a 'win' for your side. It's a net loss for everyone.
