  1. It's clear you don't understand what true or factual means. Here's that quote from Kirk again "I blame the decline of American men. This never should've been -- someone should've just took care of it the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s or 60s" It's not a statement of fact. He's saying what men should do. And what they should do is to take "care of it the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s or 60s" Do you think he's recommending Bible study?
  2. That's one way not to address the issue, Shoot the messenger. Cowardly.
  3. Another BS statement coming from you.it's such obvious BS to jump from one of the many opinions Kirk held to claim that that was the one that got him killed. Given your past comments, it's clear that you are obsessed with the transexuality issue. No evidence that Charlie Kirk was.
  4. Minnesota shooting suspect had a list of dozens of potential Democratic targets, prosecutors say The man charged with killing one Minnesota lawmaker and wounding another in what prosecutors have described as a meticulously planned attack, had dozens of apparent targets, including officials in at least three other states. Vance Boelter allegedly made it to the homes of two other legislators on the night of the attacks, but one was on vacation and the suspect left the other house after police arrived, acting U.S. Attorney Joseph Thompson said Monday. All of the politicians named in his writing were Democrats, including more than 45 state and federal officials in Minnesota, Thompson said. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/minnesota-shooting-suspect-had-a-list-of-dozens-of-potential-democratic-targets-prosecutors-say
  5. What nonsense. Where is the any evidence that Charlie Kirk was killed because of this particular opinion? Stop lying.
  6. Really? Charlie Kirk was assassinated because he denied the reality of transexualism? Making things up much?
  7. So, exactly how many out of roughly 350 million Americans have had bullets put in their heads because they denied that transexualism is a real thing?
  8. Americans will have to purchase coffee beans by the gram. But so worth it!
  9. And Americans are paying for his unhappiness with higher coffee prices. But, after all, this is a cause that is near and dear to the heart as many as practically zero Americans. So they'll be glad to pay. Local cafes raise prices as Trump’s Brazilian import tariff takes toll on coffee costs Coffee drinkers can expect to pay a little more for their drinks. That's all because of a 50% tariff put on products coming from Brazil, the United States' top coffee source. Dayton 24/7 Now's, Kysha Hancock went to Contemporoast Coffee & Roastery and caught up with the shop about the impacts of the tariff and how they're managing business despite the increase. "The Brazilian coffee is at about double the cost of what it was when we opened," said Andy Hoffbauer, one of the owners of Contemporoast. https://dayton247now.com/news/local/local-cafes-raise-prices-as-trumps-brazilian-import-tariff-takes-toll-on-coffee-costs
  10. "3 out of 5 judges convicted so not a majority" This demonstrates why MAGA has so many problems with electoral arithmetic, And not just arithmetic. Another impediment is that t They can't even get the facts right. The vote was 4 to 1. Brazil's Bolsonaro sentenced to 27 years after landmark coup plot conviction "Four of the five judges voted to convict the former president of five crimes: taking part in an armed criminal organization; attempting to violently abolish democracy; organizing a coup; and damaging government property and protected cultural assets." https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/brazils-bolsonaro-sentenced-27-years-after-landmark-coup-plot-conviction-2025-09-12/
  11. Well, if Trump is consistent, he'll pardon them.
  12. Do you remember what Trump was saying before he said that might be some pain? Do I really need to remind you?
  13. FACT FOCUS: Heritage Foundation leader wrong to say most political violence is committed by the left Two years ago a team of researchers from four universities examined court records and other data relating to 3,500 extremists active in the U.S. between 1948 and 2022. The individuals were split into three groups — left wing, right wing and relating to Islamic extremism. While some in the database had committed violent acts, others had raised money for extremist groups, volunteered or spoken out in favor of them. Right-wing extremists were just as likely to commit violent acts as those motivated by Islamic extremism, the researchers found. Left-wing extremists were a distant third. https://apnews.com/article/political-violence-trump-biden-pelosi-assassination-c4423ed88df6f4b3557aa11e798f855d
  14. Enjoy your inability to offer a rational argument.
  15. The economy is weakening yet prices are rising. That's stagflation.
  16. Howard Lutnick tried to defend President Trump’s economic plan after damning data revealed a rise in inflation and jobless claims. The Commerce Secretary expressed confidence that the economy will start booming in 2026 and reach “full fire” in 2027 after the Labor Department reported Thursday that consumer prices rose for the fourth month in a row to 2.9 percent, and the number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits hit 263,000 last week, the highest in almost four years. https://www.thedailybeast.com/lutnick-moves-goalpost-after-poor-inflation-jobless-claims-reports/
  17. Concerns over stagflation — rising prices alongside slowing growth — are likely to intensify, said Stephen Kates, a financial analyst at Bankrate. While the sharply cooling job market may still dominate the Fed’s immediate focus, “it no longer guarantees a full cycle of multiple rate cuts,” he said. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/09/11/august-inflation-trump-tariffs/
  18. You really should be putting your mind reading powers at the disposal of the government.. First you read the minds of investigators as to why they are urging caution on the engraving issue, and now you're reading the mind of the assassin. Amazing!
  19. Well, if the premise is certainly false, it's clear why you won't offer a yes or no.
  20. On the off chance the guy is captured and investigators determine he's an extreme right winger, would you be willing to accept that?
  21. Congratulations for missing the point. Do I really have to explain why your comment is so irrelevant?
  22. First off, despite your stating as fact about why investigators recommended caution about the factuality of those engraving, I prefer to stick with the confirmed facts. Second, yes, he left bullets with those inscriptions. A field guide to ‘accelerationism’: White supremacist groups using violence to spur race war and create social chaos In my research on right-wing extremism over 30 years, a disturbing pattern has emerged: White supremacists and white nationalists are increasingly willing to use violence targeting critical infrastructure in an effort to destabilize society. Since the Ku Klux Klan’s resurgence in 1915, white supremacists have pushed for white control of society. In particular, white supremacist and neo-Nazi groups have long advocated violence to establish a white ethnostate, a proposed political entity or nation-state where residency and citizenship are exclusively limited to whites. In the past several years, extremists have started using the term “accelerationism” to describe their desire to create social chaos and societal collapse that leads to a race war and the destruction of liberal democratic systems, paving the way for a white ethnostate. https://theconversation.com/a-field-guide-to-accelerationism-white-supremacist-groups-using-violence-to-spur-race-war-and-create-social-chaos-255699
  23. You choose a video from a college kid confronting an experienced debater and that is the conclusion you come to?
  24. Do you think that repeating nonsense will somehow make it true? The assassin dresses like antifa, therefore he must be a violent leftist? He's thin therefore he's a violent leftist? He's of college student age. Therefore he's a violent leftist?
  25. And the thing is, if it should turn out that the assassin was some right winger extremist, does anyone think that MAGA supporters will accept that finding? Or will they just come up with more conspiracy theories to explain it away?
