A guy named James Donald Vance Jr was indicted for threatening to kill ... JD Vance.

Someone dressed as ICE has shot two different state legislators and their spouses in Minnesota. Names haven't been released and suspect is still at large.
https://www.fox9.com/news/brooklyn-p...onating-police Edit: Names are released. Sen. John Hoffman and Rep Melissa Hortman |

I think it's very telling that you had this stuff going on nearly daily when Obama was president, and they always hid behind the first amendment. I think people like Ted Nugent would have been behind bars if you had someone try and emulate that in today's environment. |
Rep. Hortman is dead. 4 others are injured.

Worth noting that the MN House and Senate are basically evenly split.
|
Little more: He was not dressed as ICE but a regular police, in a police-like SUV with lights. He hit the Senator and his wife, and while police responded to that, they also went and checked on Rep. Hortman. The suspect was there, returned fire and ran. This whole thing is crazy.

trump may have well pulled the trigger himself.

That detail was the one that really had me scratching my head. |
It's only a matter of time until a real cop is killed because of the way ICE is running around with masks and no identifying name tags.
|
If the shooting suspect being identified on social media is accurately named, then it appears that he runs a security service and that might explain the access to what appeared to be a patrol car.
|
Worth noting that the two legislators shot were among only a handful of (D) who joined with (R)s to pass a budget bill that strips state-funded healthcare from illegals immigrants.
(Hortman was the only (D) member of the house to do so) |
Over 70 names on his list. "The names included abortion providers, pro-abortion rights advocates, and lawmakers in Minnesota and other states, the official added."

Nothing about this makes sense so far frankly, which is why I'm not inclined to draw any firm conclusions at this point. Based on some of the stuff I've seen that the suspect appears to be connected to, there's a path that might connect the seemingly different dots but to travel it sort of requires a route like little Billy took to get the mail in the old Family Circus cartoons. |
It is most likely going to follow the pattern most of these do. He is paramilitary, police wannabe, weird politics, and had some kind of break in his personal life. Snapped, and is going on spree.

Yeah I've learned there isn't any point in trying to find rationality in a senseless act.
|
Seems like a pretty run of the mill right wing evangelical with Fox News brain. Unless there is some weird connection we don't know about, I don't think this one is hard to figure out. Its a political assassination to flip the MN House.

trump has to pardon him, right? Like it's a requirement now.
|
In jon world, only one side of the political spectrum is allowed to exist. Those on the opposite side are silly for ever considering any sort of equal share.
|
I'm tired of the "Trump pardon" thing. He is going to be up on state charges. Trump couldn't pardon him if he wanted to.

Solidly Democrat area, those seats won't be flipping. She did vote to stop allowing health care for illegal immigrants (children still covered) but she did that as the leader of the house as part of a compromise to pass the budget.

Apparently he didn't think well of Walz as Walz was on Vance Luther Boelter's hit list |
Damn the military parade looks more like a small town Memorial Day parade. The bleachers in he shot I saw are almost entirely empty.

I told my wife it looks like a Kid Rock concert. I knew the crowd was small, but I wasn't ready for how small. |
Should have held the parade in Florida or some Midwest MAGA farm if he wanted an audience.

Two really funny things were them continuing to cut to aerial shots showing how pathetic the turnout was and all the sponsors. Hegseth needed to get up and say sponsored by Carl's Jr to complete the humiliation ritual.

Looks like Trump has effectively nationalized US Steel.
Good thing the communists didn't win the election. |
Looks like there was a mass shooting attempt in Salt Lake City yesterday. Details are fuzzy but it sounds like a security guard shot the suspect when he pulled out his rifle but also hit an innocent bystander.
Two terrorist attacks in a day. |
I keep seeing video of a guy sneaking away with a shooting suspect's backpack because he saw a gun, preventing a possible mass shooting. I think that was in SLC. Not sure.
|
The Senator and wife that survived the assassin's attack took a combined 17 bullets. The mom shielded their daughter from the rain of bullets. Amazing.

They caught the guy. I still haven't seen details other than he is in custody.

There also a couple instances of people driving cars through the protests. But Florida said that's fine so I guess we can't count that. |
I think it's pretty clear the Trump and the people in his administration are actively pushing for a Civil War.

He apparently went to 4 lawmakers homes but they weren't home. Pretty crazy stuff and meticulously planned. Also found it odd that his wife was caught with passports, cash, and guns during a traffic stop. His brother and supposed co-worker at his security firm used to work for the FBI. Other than that, the gist seems to be he was a MAGA fanatic and Christian nationalist who had fallen on hard times. |

More ways for MAGA to spend their life savings propping up a billionaire, but the next time a dem is in office prices of everything will be a problem again.

So what puts Israel in a position to pressure the US to do their bidding when they rely on us for most of their support?

The massive amounts of money they give to our politicians for the past few decades.
