David Menzies, a reporter for Canadian news site Rebel News, was attacked by members of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's team on Thursday, December 9th. Menzies was standing on a "public sidewalk outside a public event" when the attack occurred, according to a Rebel News report: "David was standing on a public sidewalk outside a public event where Trudeau was going to a Liberal Christmas Party. David was doing what all media do — waiting patiently to call out a question to Trudeau as he walked in." Trudeau, a Liberal politician, has verbally attacked Rebel News and their reporting for quite some time. The site has been openly critical of Trudeau and his COVID policies (which include arresting pastors) since the beginning of the pandemic. Rebel News gave several examples of Trudeau's attacks aagainst them verbally. "Trudeau says it again and again. He says we’re not real reporters. He says we don’t deserve any respect. He publicly blames us for the sorry state of Canada. He personally bans us from attending public press conferences. And if we manage to get in, he insults us, instead of answering our questions." In Menzies's case, however, the attack was much more than verbal. Trudeau's bodyguards slammed the reporter's face against the wall and bloodied him. Rebel News confirmed that Menzies did go to the hospital as a result of the attack. "They smashed David’s face against the wall — David was so stunned; he couldn’t speak straight. They beat him up, they bloodied him. They destroyed his property. Toronto police arrived quickly at the scene of the accident, but did not charge Trudeau's guards, who refused to tell Menzies their names, with anything. The incident was caught on camera. As further evidence of Menzies's innocence, Rebel News pointed out that Menzies was also not charged with any crime. Watch the video of the assault below: Rebel News announced that they have filed a lawsuit on behalf of Menzies, and they have started a Stand With David" petition. Rebel News reporters have faced many attacks from not only Trudeau, but also enemies like Antifa and street thugs.
