  1. And let's check the tapes on that: #4 on the College Transitions list of most conservative public schools ahead of A&M (#5) (https://www.collegetransitions.com/blog/most-conservative-colleges/) #8 on College Rover list of most conservative colleges (again ahead of A&M, but behind BYU - supporting claims of being the "liberal" school in Utah) (https://collegerover.com/campus-library/news/128/most-conservative-colleges-in-us) #11 on Prep Scholar list of most conservative colleges (again ahead of A&M) (https://blog.prepscholar.com/most-conservative-colleges) Not sure what criterion all of this is based on, but scary that even kids at a top 11 conservative school aren't safe from "lIBRul IndOCtRiNatIoN!11!" (in 1 semester no less). Won't someone think of the children? Apparently we need to be expanding capacity at the last bastions of conservatism, Bob Jones U, Liberty and BYU immediately.
  2. At least some of the more respected outlets are picking this up, most notably Vanity Fair:
  3. Fox News gonna Fox News ... If true, this will be an absolute shitshow, but gut reaction to this:
  4. In my opinion, if a witness recants their statement like this, the journalist should be free to out the asshole. You don't get to make shit up to promote a narrative and then hide behind anonymity.
  5. So the government / police killed Charlie Kirk??? Where can I subscribe to their newsletter to get the details?
  6. The fact that this exists ...
  7. Got it. I saw that too with the theory - it just wasn't clear to me that it was one of the actual recovered bullets.
  8. I saw that explanation floated, but was there ever any confirmation that the mfr inscription was what they were referring to? I was thinking it might have been a mischaracterization of the "Notices Bulge" thing, which apparently has some links to Furry culture - see https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/notices-bulge-owo-whats-this. The Verge did an okay job recapping the theories behind the inscriptions: https://www.theverge.com/politics/777313/charlie-kirks-alleged-killer-scratched-bullets-with-a-helldivers-combo-and-a-furry-sex-meme Honestly, all of this may have been trolling, but it does seem like dude may have been spending way too much time online, which is pretty dangerous for young men these days. I haven't heard much about young men being radicalized to the left online, but I'm sure that's the way Kash and co are likely to try to paint this.
  9. Not really sold on the Groyper angle yet either, but I think the angle is that he might have some Boogaloo Bois accelerationist tendencies - i.e., he was happy to frame it as someone on the left to enflame the already intense divide between the left and the right. Who the fuck knows, though.
  10. That's the issue with all of this - everyone's on a team, so you have to take this sort of shit with a grain of salt. It would be great to actually see what he's been up to online, but I'm incredibly skeptical that the results of any such forensic work will be accurate coming out of this administration.
  11. Yeah, looks like you're right. Home was in the name of Tyler and Makayla Robinson, and a quick search turned up this guy, a UVU grad who mentioned Makayla in a post ("I love this beautiful woman with all my heart! ❤ I ... Photo shared by Makayla Dalton Robinson "): https://www.instagram.com/instatylerdean/ Turns out that there IS another Tyler Robinson in south Utah that might have been a Trump supporter.
  12. This. St. George is right next to Washington, UT, the shooter's hometown. This is almost certainly him. EDIT: See later post. Looks like there was another Tyler Robinson in that area.
  13. Holy shit - Fox News is going to implode upon itself if dude actually was a Groyper.
  14. Fuck it - we had a good run, but ... Hopefully someone can take away our nukes because not sure we should be trusted with them any time soon.
  15. The actual evidence won't matter. We're going to have 2 (or more) versions of the "truth" on this, especially with the MAGA-fication of the FBI. Going forward, red states are going to start trying to change the laws of criminal procedure so that they can convict folks in "politically-motivated/involved" crimes by majority decision, since getting a unanimous verdict is going to be increasingly difficult in this environment.
  16. Remember which timeline we're in - no way he would have redeemed himself. He would have turned into a super villain.
  17. Bo French is Tribe171?
  18. Not to be that guy, but ... ummm ...
  19. Ehhh ... pretty sure it will cause autism.
  20. The lady bringing up the rear looked like she was disappointed they got this guy instead of the Subway Chucker.
  21. I think you really have to break it down even further for Cleetus over there on Texags. The joke is that Trump considered a girl "fully depreciated" - i.e., fully used up - at 22 years old. Ya know - because Trump likes them "fresh" - i.e., more like 13 yo - likely because at that point that they don't know what a "rare specimen" his little micro-mushroom is.

    I. AM. FUCKING. DYING. Frontrunner for post of the year IMO.
  23. Jonathan Last from the Bulwark nails it in his piece today (https://www.thebulwark.com/p/donald-trump-hearts-jeffrey-epstein😞 Everyone should be hammering Trump mercilessly about this. The additional context from the book should leave no possibility for him to shrug this off. I fear that a lot of people may end up dying as a result of the Trump administration's efforts to distract from this.
