I would fully expect that out of all of this, the most in the open thing will be a Senate investigation of the Secret Service actions in the shooting.



I would think its going to be pretty mandatory.

I guess that's too hard for some of you to figure out.
The Tweet says, "The Director of the Secret Service is Kimberly Cheatle, no military background but a background with Pepsi, and appointed by Biden."

Why leave out her decades of service before she quit to work in the private sector? Why mention her at all unless you are insinuating that the agent in the video is Cheatle. And why is the woman likely her hire? You have zero proof either way. You say so because it confirms your bias.

And again, the video is edited to prove that same bias. Pure misinformation 101.

And your post about liberal sources were headlines before a shooting was confirmed. You know, what legitimate journalists do.

My bad, it was the videos themselves I was referring too, not tweet statement. Essentially, one video shows Cheatle is looking to hire 30% women by 2030 and the other video shows one of the agents looking flustered in the heat of the moment.

Come on...everyone knew it was an assassination attempt.

You're not digging deep enough. Were they all white or were there Mexicans too? That would explain a lot.

I'm in favor of people making informed, responsible decisions when deciding who to vote for.

If someone is going to cast a ballot based on a picture and nothing else, I'd rather they stay home.

Always gives me a chuckle when people say he's "alpha" or "badass" or something for surviving this shooting.

He happened to turn his head just before the shot was taken. It was pure luck.

Sure, everyone assumed it was an assassination attempt. It wasn't a confirmed fact yet. Your lack of media literacy is showing.

When debating...if they don't agree with someone, they call you racist, bigot, or fascist instead of using facts to bolster their argument. They use insults or belittling language as a way to protect themselves or assert dominance.

They're easy to spot.
Looch City is a prime example. He's got nothing to add...he's just insinuating that i'm rasict.

I mean the only people who rant about DEI (and all the variants of it beforehand like CRT) are groypers.

If the shoe fits...

And this phenomenon is isolated to only a specific segment of society? One that is ironically based on a flawed theoretical(not fact based) spectrum?

Not defending the comment that was directed at you, but come on man this explanation for what you said isn’t exactly based on facts either.

That's because DEI is inherently racist and sexist. Companies are literally using sex and race as a determining factor for hiring. It's like going back in time to a world where we were segregated by sex and race. That's just wrong.
