The purported gunman may well have been just a guy. In which case, he is a symptom of the powerlessness of our citizens in a democracy when "those people" or "the man" control all aspects of the system: the three branches of government and the media 4th estate and now the meta layer of data manipulation. It all serves a crust that definitely does not care about the well-being of its citizens and only cares about its own power. Well, that's not great. The other case is that he's actually part of the manipulation of the system. That would be worse.

This is a good take. I'm still not sure what to think about the various loose threads of this event though. This is definitely a card in Putin's playbook as seen by the Hungarian election "assassination attempt" and we know that Putin loves him some Trump.

Without looking: 86 is China 7 is the Former Soviet states 92 is Pakistan (where there are so many traces done that everyone's phone would be considered derogatory anywhere else) 91 is India 55 is Brazil 56 is Chile 54 is Argentina 27 is South Africa

They will reschedule and The demogogue will address his subject peoples later.

Trump still plans to give a speech. That's gonna be interesting.

Because they didn't want Trump to speak.

Or even Maritime Law!

Or Marital Law

Are you ****ing kidding? They just gunned a guy down. That could not be in more poor taste.

JD Vance dies doing what he loves, trying to get ahead no matter what.

Sounds like one set of gunshots.

The image of the gun wielding guys in black armor and battle rattle with "Celebrating the First Amendment" behind them is just amazing.

Thomas Massie endorsed by Kenosha Kyle Rittenhouse?!?!?

My app says delay. What are the cool kids saying?

Sin Sen Ayt Eee?

I fricken love Sheila being this involved. She gives a crap. I know WCF cared too but without getting too political, don't ever let your beloved franchise, or any other organization, be run by an alcoholic.

People who spend a lot of time thinking about gore are into firing squads. I'll bet its POTUS.

Keggie down one fan in the RW media.

Brazil is that small of a percent immigrant?

I was thinking of starting a thread called "Trump's coming war with everyone" but decided its much easier to continue to talk about what Trump is going to do in 2025. Exclusive: Pentagon email floats suspending Spain from NATO, other steps over Iran rift, source says | Reuters

It would complicate my softball league.
