The Republicans, through Kirk and others, feel young men at universities are struggling and want to give them direction. So they have events and young men attend and listen. Now many here may say it's evil and disinformation but watch the video i posted earlier of just a normal event that was happening every day, not gotcha videos or headlines on social medial... Charlie Kirk destroyed blah blah blah. Watch a full show and judge for yourself. I mean at least these are solutions, even if you disagree. Where are the democrat activists, why are they not on college campuses?
You can't just look at one part of who he is and decide "ya, it's fine". That video may be, but it's also a technique to appear reasonable, bring people into your influence circle, and that's where you mould them into little hate-warriors.


They've had years to work on these techniques, you can't just be blind to what happens below the surface.

I see that Trump has already started to preemptively dismiss any radical right-wing nutjob who does something horrible in the future. They're just good guys fighting crime. Nothing to see here. The real problem are those radical woke lefties!

To distract from another right wing terrorist they should release the Epstein files, it would only be prudent in order to take the microscope away from violent right wing groups/actors tied to the maga movement.

Well, we knew this would happen. Man fatally shot by ICE agent in Chicago suburb. Apparently he hit an Officer with his car in an attempt to get away.

So does that mean Trump will give him a medal of honour? It must be so confusing to be far right.
Actually there's one more detail, he seemed to have 4chan memes engraved on the bullets, suggesting his political leanings were actually extreme right, i.e. Nick Fuentes and the groypers, who were critical of Charlie Kirk for being "too moderate". The motive was probably to start a culture war and 'frame' the left.

I think the best way to honor fallen American HERO Charlie Kirk would be to release the Epstein files.
It's what Charlie wanted

So while there was a chance that the shooter was trans, the right wing was gearing up to eradicate all trans people.

Now that the shooter is republican they are all shifting to forgiveness and trying to forget what they said yesterday.

So one of MAGA FB friends just owned himself.

He accused me of being a hypocrite when I said it looks like the shooter is a conservative.

So he said, why would a conservative engrave an anti fascist message on a bullet casing?

Oops. And yes, the FB guy is a MAGA conservative.

Good. Once that's done, wanna talk about the fact that the Trump-Epstein files still need to be released? I think we should.

Kash Patel is way out of his depth. At this morning's press conference, he's looking at the camera and talking directly to the now deceased Charlie Kirk, he says
"rest now brother, we have the watch." And "we will meet again in Valhalla".

Sounds like a wrestling promo from some steroid mushbrained wrestler talking about Hulk Hogan or the Ultimate Warrior. Trump's people are garbage.

I find Kash Patel unintentionally hilarious, "This Is What Happens When You Let Good Cops Be Cops" ... C'mon Kash, just give the $100K reward to the kid's dad and return to your Tony Montana sized pile of coke.

Agreed. Couldn't help but laugh thinking of him trying to conduct the investigation after letting go all the actual competent FBI officials. Probably just spent the last two days looking at 4chan and asking chatgpt questions.

Fuentes and his group didnt like kirk at all. And looking more and more like this shooter was caught up in it...they groomed him, so to speak

"When pundits and politicians and people in power claim to oppose political violence, what they actually mean is that they simply oppose violence that threatens them and their power. The daily political violence that millions of americans have to endure through incarceration, our for-proit insurance system, neglect, deportation, police brutality and on and on and on, doesn't count."

Since it was actually a right wing nutjob that killed Kirk, does that mean he'll get pardoned like the Jan 6th terrorists did?
