As I read this article on LifeSite News, I was greatly saddened to see the lack of compassion and the callous regard for human life in the Canadian health system. On March 29, Normand Meunier, a 66-year-old quadriplegic man, was euthanized at home after developing bed sores and a major pressure ulcer on his backside. The ulcer and bed sores, resulting from a lack of specialized care (and a lack of common decency) at the hospital in Saint-Jérôme, Quebec, were so severe that muscle and bone were exposed and visible. First off, he was placed on a hospital stretcher for...

The prosecutor hired to go after Donald Trump by his alleged District Attorney lover Fani Willis had two meetings with the Biden White House during his investigation, according to court documents reviewed by DailyMail.com. The meetings and calls, which came ahead of Willis’ charges filed against Trump, brings into question repeated denials by the White House that it had any coordination with the Fulton DA’s prosecution. The Fulton County, Georgia DA hired Atlanta attorney Nathan Wade as an ‘anti-corruption special prosecutor’ to investigate Trump’s alleged election interference.

Sources said Price’s work laptop was stolen while her vehicle was parked outside a family justice center near 27th Street and Telegraph Avenue, ABC 7 reported. Authorities later confirmed the burglary and said officers learned several people broke into a vehicle and stole items from inside it before fleeing the area. The ABC 7 report continued: ABC7 I-Team reporter Dan Noyes said on X on Saturday, formerly known as Twitter, DA Price’s bodyguard parked the $90,000 county Tahoe...

Yesterday there was a fact-check-a-palooza! Just to recap if you missed it, first the Washington Post’s Glenn Kessler took on claims that George Soros backed the campaign of Alvin Bragg, who is now Manhattan’s super-“progressive” District Attorney. Kessler called it an “incendiary claim”:Glenn Kessler @GlennKesslerWP New #FactChecker -> The incendiary claim that George Soros ‘funds’ Alvin Bragg Eventually Twitter’s Community Notes came along to fact-check the fact-checker: Readers added context they thought people might want to know Soros donated $1 million to the Color of Change PAC, the largest individual donation it received in the 2022 election cycle, days after...

Pennsylvania state representatives expect to vote Wednesday on whether to impeach Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner (D); a legislative panel voted to move the idea forward on Tuesday. All 14 attending members of the state House of Representatives Judiciary Committee supported advancing an impeachment bill sponsored by State Representative Martina White (R-Philadelphia). All eight Democrats present for the vote opposed the legislation. Many lawmakers say the far-left prosecutor’s laxity on the job has led Philadelphia to suffer its worst spike in violent crime ever. First elected in 2017, Krasner campaigned on being more lenient than his moderate-to-liberal predecessors, attracting the...

TULSA, Okla. — The Tulsa County District Attorney's Office released an updated statement from District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler: “Unfortunately today, I found myself in a situation that I hoped would never happen.

Crime is rapidly rising in major American cities, primarily where liberal District Attorney's (DA) received large sums of money from liberal billionaire George Soros in their election campaigns. Many of these DAs take it upon themselves to dismiss charges for various reasons – whether it is income, racial, or status based, ignoring the law. Liberal George Soros DAs, like any other politician, do what their largest donor wants them to do. In the case of American criminal justice, we see what George Soros wants: criminals who get away with crime and victims who never see justice. America is a...

ATLANTA — The district attorney in Fulton County, Ga., who is conducting a criminal investigation of former President Donald J. Trump has asked for an F.B.I. risk assessment of the county courthouse in downtown Atlanta, citing “alarming” rhetoric used by Mr. Trump at a rally in Texas over the weekend.

While most Americans were focused on partisan polarization in Washington, D.C., the U.S. criminal justice system has been quietly transformed by a group of radically liberal billionaires and millionaires. They have attacked our system of justice at its roots, bankrolling the campaigns of activist district attorney candidates who promise to give criminals soft sentences in the name of so-called social justice and equity.Now self-styled progressive district attorneys, many of whom toppled conventional Democratic opponents across the country by running to their left, are enforcing their own warped sense of social justice instead of the actual law. Unsurprisingly, crime has risen...

The Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney is asking for the FBI's help in providing security for buildings and staff one day after former President Donald Trump called prosecutors investigating him "racists" and said his supporters should hold "the biggest protests we have ever had" in cities like Atlanta if the prosecutors "do anything wrong or illegal." DA Fani Willis and her office are investigating Trump for his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia. A special grand jury will be seated as part of that investigation on May 2. At a rally in Conroe, Texas, Saturday night,...

Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan recently criticized Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby for her egregious mishandling of cases and her allowing of criminals to return to the streets, unsupervised and unpunished, with the potential to add more victims to Baltimore's growing list of victims of preventable criminal activity. What is occurring in Baltimore is unilateral justice, and it is wrong for a variety of reasons. Prosecutors are effectively taking the law into their own hands in cases such as these, superseding the whims of the legislature that wrote the laws to protect citizens, preventing the courts from delving into the evidence,...

For the last several years, billionaire philanthropist George Soros has been quietly financing a revolution in criminal justice reform, doling out tens of millions of dollars to progressive candidates in district attorney races throughout the country amid movements to abolish bail and defund the police. Working with an activist attorney, Soros, 91, mainly funnels cash through a complicated web of federal and state political action committees as well as non-profits from coast to coast, public records show. Last year, the Foundation to Promote Open Society, a nonprofit in Soros’ orbit, gave $3 million to the Community Resource Hub for Safety...

When most voters go to the ballot box, the candidates running for district attorney are typically the least of their concerns. Many people vote for D.A.s by party affiliation without looking deeper. This is a huge mistake that is costing voters and/or family members life and limb. The current lawlessness in many major and even small cities across America has become epidemic. One need look no further than the sitting district attorneys in these recusant cities and states to find out why. Former U.S. Attorney General Ed Meese from the Reagan Administration has warned us in The LELDF report, Prosecutorial...

My daughter has a nice little house in a safe neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley. Until recently she never really had to worry about crime or her personal safety. But now suburban places like hers in Northern California and Southern California are being hit by a crime wave that has never hit them before. As you’ve seen on national TV, “smash-and-grab” gangs are hitting shopping malls like the one near her – the same one I often take my granddaughters to. And now there are even young thugs who’ll follow you home from the mall and break into your...

Andy Ngo explains in Unmasked that the BLM organization and Antifa operate in tandem and are run by Marxists who seek nothing less than to destroy America—its governments; its houses of worship; its monuments to historic figures; and its flag and national anthem. They also seek to destroy free enterprise and to replace the standard pedagogy in schools with Marxist Critical Race Theory, hoping to breed generations of Marxist revolutionaries to promote violent overthrow. These efforts endlessly manifest themselves across the nation in the looting and burning of businesses, government buildings, and churches; robbery; assaults; and murder. They are furthered...

Since 2015, George Soros has pumped tens of millions of dollars into local races in Texas, Colorado, California, Oregon, Washington, Florida, and New York, as well as swing states. Since 2015, George Soros has been executing a plan to reshape the country through local district attorney elections by pumping unprecedented amounts of money into races that typically only see candidates spend in the low five figures.HereÂ’s why he has an interest in these local races. Soros is exploiting the reality that all politics are local in some way. To transform America, you have to transform the way towns and cities...

One reason for the surging, often protracted violence in US cities is the rise of a host of progressive prosecutors who actually tilt against law and order. In Contra County, Calif., outside San Francisco, DA Diana Becton will now consider looters’ “needs” when weighing criminal charges. At Politico, she and four other black, female DAs (from Chicago, Boston, St. Louis and Durham) actually slammed the very criminal-justice system they were elected to enforce — ludicrously claiming it was “constructed to control Black people and people of color” and that it’s now doing just that. The Bay City’s DA is Chesa...

Why are wealthy left-wing donors across the country, the abortion industry, and national gun-control groups more interested in your local school board and city council races than most of the people who live in your own town? Because they’re funding efforts to ensure their far-left agenda pervades our entire society – from getting their abortion curricula into our schools to changing our election laws – and they want to make sure that no city, no town is left to stand against them. National left-wing organizations are collecting and funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to flip local city councils, school...
