I haven’t seen that and his actions dont make sense. If he wanted to make a statement why not target a symbol of Democrats? I think he felt betrayed by Trump. He purposely chose a Tesla to symbolize Musk and Trump hotel to symbolize Trump.
I also read reporting from the AP that he suffered from a traumatic brain injury which manifested itself in the last several years. The report includes a former girlfriend saying he suffered from pain, exhaustion and depression. Wondering if the TBI contributed to his embrace of Trumpism?
Talking Points Memo (not “meme”) has been around for more than 20 years. It’s a respected news site with a liberal bent. The business is set up as a non-profit, so no gazillionaire controlling the editorial direction.
Thanks for the insight, I do appreciate it. Never heard of them till today and I've been a news junkie for just as long as they have been around. So for the 3rd time today I'm simply pointing out the fact that I wouldn't consider them MSM. Not sure why that's hard for some ppl to understand lol
Does not sound like you read the article. I did not call TPM mainstream. The article is saying that mainstream media is not fully covering his manifesto fully. Lol.
Ah ha finally a reasonable response. lol You're correct, I didn't read the article due to their name and I value my clicks( I don't just click on every link provided) and only read what you provided in the screenshot. I now see what you meant by your post, appreciate you clearing that up. 🤝
You value your clicks? Are you charged for them? Just think of how this whole conversation could have been avoided if you’d just read the article? However, it’s a good reminder of how people get misled and pass on wrong information. Do your due diligence.
Don't get me wrong. I think the legacy MSM literally allowed fascism to get a foot in the door, and I hate them for it. but in this case I do wonder if part of it isn't rooted in not amplifying the domestic terrorist's message
This is the precise type of belief that we have been warning would result from a campaign of hate. The campaign of hate won't end because they won the election, it's very important for a burgeoning fascism to keep it up (see Russia, Georgia, Hungary etc.) It will get worse before it gets better.
It feels wrong to add the ❤️(like) to this. I'm afraid you are correct. I'm also afraid of how many of them are in our military and our LEOs. High-stress jobs, high # of active PTSD cases...prime picking grounds for cult members.
I just heard those for the 1st time on a news program early this morning. It is so much worse than we thought...the cult is strong, and active PTSD makes for some easy targets. And where do you find the highest number of active cases? 💔😡
The NO guy was divorced, gone so crazy that his ex-wife got no-visiting of the kids. He planned to kill them all, then changed the target. And had extra explosives stashed for more deaths! He had been muslim a long time, radicalized/became very crazy more recently acc to news.
For the life of me, I'll never understand how anyone looks at the biggest baby in our history and sees Trump as masculine. And for someone in the military to overlook his draft dodging is hard as well.
They denounce Democrats and demand they be "culled" from Washington, by violence if necessary, and hopes his death will serve as a kind of bell clap for a national rebirth of masculinity under the leadership of Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Bobby Kennedy Jr.
wow ... I'm reminded of the Zealots of Jesus' time (Judas may have been one?), some of whom believed that if they just started a revolution against the Romans, God would finish it
Homicidal,suicidal,wife beating, bully ,who gives a shit what their warped, demented ,delusional,minds have to offer .Many people for many years could have helped him but...
Read his minifestos. Notice he mentions Trump, Musk, and Kennedy as his heroes for restoring mansculinity, but no mention of (Gabbard-a woman) or Patel (Asian/Indian/brown person). Doesn’t mention Hegseth either, interesting. Sounds like he potential ideology for being a serial killer or vigilante.
"...Those documents denounce Democrats and demand they be “culled” from Washington, by violence if necessary, and express the hope that his own death will serve as a kind of bell clap for a national rebirth of masculinity under the leadership of Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Bobby Kennedy Jr..."
In one very short document he states citizens are cattle to the top 1% and then encourages "riding the wave" of Trump, Musk, and RFK. Wants to make a big statement but then just shows his sickness and is now just a dead man. I'm a veteran and I guess he wasn't speaking to women vets and others.
Yeah, it’s not great that the incoming President (and his Rasputin-like hanger-on) are already inspiring people to off themselves in spectacular fashion in order to advance their MAGA vision.

I would take his statements with some doubt.
Works though when I include "toxic."
These clowns are fucking losers.
Red pill/manosphere type garbage is toxic for men.

His face is that of a psychopath
It is a weak weak man who calls this a man
A 'rebirth' of masculinity also means a 'rebirth' of an over developed ego.
It should not be released by the authorities.
To do so is to honour him!
Now if someone could explain to me how Trump is going to address income inequality and homelessness…
WAPO, NYT, LA Times, to name a few.
He thought blowing himself was "masculine?"
Hitler was a STUD for chomping cyanide and putting a bullet through his own head!
So MASCULINE!
