2. So I left off talking about Pat King's stream last night and though it was a bit later in the clip, Pat actually used they "I have a Jewish" lawyer argument to "prove" he isn't a racist.

I love the uncomfortable silence of his guests.

3. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

You. Are. NOT. Helping!!!!!!

4. The rest of the video, and I won't show it all, is Pat King smugly confident he isn't going to jail because his "team of lawyers" is on the case.

In fact, once he sues the media for defamation of character (for reporting exactly what he has said), he thinks he will be rich.

5. Yep, he has put the police on notice and is having cease and desist orders written up as he speaks.

Also, it isn't that he is afraid of arrest that he isn't out. No no!

No, he's working on logistics.

6. Continues to claim that the orders are unlawful and claims more trucks are coming from all over.

7. More of Pat King saying that his team of lawyers is going to keep him out of jail.

Uhm... where has this "team" been every time you have had to represent yourself, Pat?

8. Like, I can't begin to describe how absolutely confident that Pat King is certain he won't be going to jail.

9. And he continues to be cryptic talking about all the illegal orders and threating that an unnamed senator will be going after Canada because Pat King once again doesn't understand how anything in the world works.

10. Later he posted this suggesting his lawyer "Mr. Shalom" asked him to do so to indicate his support for the occupation effort.

If "Mr. Shalom" is from Ottawa, I wonder if @PaulChampLaw knows this person ?

I mean, "Mr. Shaloom" COULD be real, but I must say I'm dubious.

11. In the meantime, arrests are indeed taking place.

12. Far-right "journalist" Leigh Stewart posted these videos of some of the arrests.

13. Videos are short so I combined them.

14. Jim Kerr posted the following video half an hour ago.

15.

16. With that I head off to work.

As always while I'm gone, don't give away the home world.

17. Pat "I'm Not Going to Be Arrested" King was arrested.

ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new…

18. I know I'm late to this but I can't not include Pat King being arrested that was recorded live in this thread.

19. Here's another angle.

20. So I guess that means that Pat King is finally and actually, "done."

21. Also arrested today was Daniel Bulford.

cambridgetimes.ca/news-story/105…

22. Far-right pseudo-journalist Leigh Stewart offers these breathless reports.

23.

24. Tyler Russell of the hate group Canada First who had been agitating for a confrontation is upset because there is a confrontation.

25. Above videos combined.

26.

27. Above videos combined.

28. And of course, Russell thinks the occupation leadership was in on it all along.

30. Diagolon member ALex Vriend was also reporting on police movement from what it seems a safe distance.

I wonder how many of these people screaming "hold the line" are no where near "the line" or left "the line" before they themselves were caught behind "the line"?

31.

33. Diagolon de facto leader Jeremy MacKenzie continues to rage.

I somehow suspect that he is in a hotel room right now.

34. And MacKenzie continues to beat the "we were betrayed!" drum as he attacks BJ Dichter and other leadership in the #OttawaOccupation.

37.

38. New World Order and other conspiracy woo throughout this clip.

39. BJ Dichter says hey, thank you guys for sticking it out and getting arrested while I make my getaway. I'm going to do Tucker then chill for a bit.

I mean, that isn't EXACTLY what he said, but it is sort of the gist.

40. Diagolon de facto leader Jeremy MacKenzie posted a video on Telegram not long ago.

41. This one I cut up for easier digestion.

Claims this day is a stain on Canada and discusses what he sees as brutality directed at the occupiers.

42. Goes after @PierrePoilievre and @CandiceBergenMP by name and the @CPC_HQ in general as having done nothing.

43. Speaking of Poilievre and Bergen, here are their last tweets.

44. Attacks the leadership of the occupation claiming it was subverted from the start.

45. Rages that they will never be forgive and that it isn't over.

46.

48. Tyler Russell of the hate group Canada First continues to post footage.

49. Videos combined to limit tweets in the thread (though I haven't been especially successful at limiting tweets thus far).

51. Chris Barber released. Told to get out of town.

cbc.ca/news/canada/ot…

52. As for Pat King, his "lawyer" who claims his name is "Mike" also "claims" he is going to use the Telegram page to get out information.

Most of those commenting believe this.

53. However, and unusual when it comes to anything Pat King related, there are skeptics.

Honestly, after seeing so many credulous comments from Pat's supporters here and on Facebook this was quite refreshing.

54. In Ottawa Diagolon member Alex Vriend has made it back to the hotel and is urging others to head in that direction to have a "snowball fight" with the police.

I'm sure he will also claim he is just joking and people shouldn't take him seriously.

56. A reminder that while attention has been focused on Ottawa and the border blockades (Coutts and Windsor especially), Winnipeg is in its second week of an occupation as well.

cbc.ca/news/canada/ma…

57. In one of the more bizarre lies Pat King has told is his claim to have "booked" the hotel rooms for some classic Canadian rockers who said agreed to play for the occupiers on February 19.

58. Except no. Not, that absolutely didn't happen.

59. But it isn't as if he doesn't have a history (recent too) of making grandiose claims regarding organizing concerts.

60. Hey, remember the crypto that Pat was pushing?

Seems the website is now for sale.

61. But it is forever preserved in our hearts... and the Internet Archive via the Wayback Machine.

Sooooo, how many people lost money on this and how much of that money has found its way... elsewhere if you know what I mean?

web.archive.org/web/*/https://…

62. Okay, I haven’t done this for a while but…

New day. New mug!

Tonight is from a set if stemless wine glass one of my bestest friends (Michelle) gave me for my birthday. The libation for the night is an inexpensive (not cheap!) Prosecco.

63. Also, regarding Pat's crypto page, I made a whoopies that this awesome person explains better than I can right now (thanks for catching it for me). :)

64. Tyler Russell of the hate group Canada First is not stating "there is no political solution" which certainly implies violence.

65. A look at some of the comments suggest his supporters agree.

70.

71. I mean, I know that this sucked for people in Ottawa, but @jordanklepper from @TheDailyShow can at least also make it funny.

72. Report from a friend in Ottawa:

"Hey Kurt, they got downtown locked down even more then last night, looking down Bronson it’s a light show of cop cars."

73. Also, a selfish side note.

I think that the blockade at Coutts is the reason I don't have the birthday gift I bought for myself back in October (16 weeks, custom made).

I'm a socialist, but very much of the champagne (or, port rather) variety.

74. "Non-violent."

75. Vehicles continue to be removed.

76. Okay, I admit it. This video clip by Diagolon member and Holocaust denier Alex Vriend made me laugh.

It is probably due to the Prosecco.

Also, his hair cut is stupid, but that really is an aesthetic debate I suppose.

78. Chris Saccoccia (aka Chris Sky) posted two clips, one I couldn't be bothered to listen to and the other one which was as dumb as I expected.

79.

80. I admit it.

I may have snapped.

84. Also, you have a problem with this take, you also have a problem with me because I agree 100%

84. Shutting down for the night.

See y'all in the morning. :)
