  1. Quoting a passage of the Bible calling for gay people to be put to death is not exactly peace and love
  2. This is a very very very important thing to keep in mind. Crowder does have good reason to have those messages that he shared, but it's not verified and there's a reason the investigators didn't share that info. And he does not have a sterling history of factual or faithful reproduction of information. Jesus fuck, our information ecosystem is so so bad and many people don't realize the extent, even when the director of the FBI is making major mistakes
  3. Hell, the director of the FBI has been wrong multiple times already on this! We gotta get our top antiterrorism expert on the case It's going to be fascinating watching the information worm turn on this issue over the next few days as things are released and retracted
  4. moving my reply to the appropriate thread.... Crowder certainly IS a conspiracy loon - he was a leading COVID truther and pushed Jan6 and Qanon bullshit. But in this specific case it's not surprising DOJ would reach out
  5. the running narrative that is the tone of the DT thread is that "the left LOVES this" without a hint of irony after posting "midterms secured"
  6. that's what's in the screenshot of teams.doj.gov that steven crowder posted. TBH I would consider that to be a realtively reliable source of information in this current climate on this topic. He's another conservative agitprop pundit that does the same schtick as Kirk, so it stands to reason that DOJ would reach out and loop him in. Even moreso when you consider all their working relationship to the administration
  7. can you share where you got that ATF quote from?
  8. Good lord, facts aren't political. Posting quotes of his to debunk all the claims of him being a uniter and good person is fair game.
  9. Goddamn, even the UK is taking the Epstein files more seriously than the Party https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/11/uk/peter-mandelson-uk-ambassador-fired-intl London — Peter Mandelson was fired as Britain’s ambassador to the United States on Thursday after his ties to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein became another unwelcome problem for the embattled Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Mandelson had been under mounting pressure over his relationship with Epstein after US lawmakers on Monday released a “birthday book,” compiled for Epstein’s 50th birthday in 2003, in which the veteran Labour party politician had penned a handwritten note describing Epstein as “my best pal.” Despite the revelation, Starmer forcefully defended his ambassador on Wednesday, telling parliament that Mandelson had his “full confidence.” Hours later, the scandal snowballed after Bloomberg published a trove of emails between Mandelson and Epstein, in which Mandelson expressed support for his friend and offered to discuss his infamous 2008 Florida case with his political contacts. Epstein pleaded guilty to two state prostitution charges and served 13 months in prison after a controversial plea deal. But the emails obtained by Bloomberg showed that Mandelson continued to support Epstein after that conviction.
  10. Heaven forbid we talk about the hateful words and works of a man when the nation is bending over backwards to honor a Jan6 planner and virulent racist. He literally bussed in the guy that was attacking a cop with a fire extinguisher on Jan6, and we're putting flags at half staff. It's absurd that he is being lionized. It's mourning an arsonist that burned down in his own fire. The murder is wrong and evil, and is only going to encourage an even stronger response from the Party that was taking their rhetorical cues on which group to target next from Kirk and TPUSA
  11. Who is saying this? I'm sure lunatics on social media are posting shit like that, but it's pretty disingenuous to assert that's what "the left" is represented by whatever extreme position social media serves up to you as outrage bait
  12. In the DT thread, someone finally brought together a list of Kirk's greatest hits of hate. Share some of those hits if you care to burn bridges of FB - but it's ridiculous to see this seditionist that funded groups that attacked democracy on Jan6 treated as a national hero
  13. pretty macabre to already be celebrating political wins off of a murder, imo
  14. Holy shit go take it to the mass shooting thread that you ignore
  15. Charlie Kirk murder as the trumpist flavor of a Reichstag fire would be too fucking dumb. Even for this timeline
  16. Good lord they are FEASTING on Kirk's corpse already
  17. Bulletproof vests catch the bullet and dissipate the energy into layers of laminated kevlar, it makes no sense that it would ricochet like off a metal plate. If he were wearing an AR500 plate, maybe? But that would be pretty apparent
  18. Definitely an aspect to unpack. Single precise shot out of the blue and then melting into the crowd is like something out of a Bourne movie or the The Jackal
  19. Top men are on this. Top. Men.
  20. I too posted on the Daily Texan 2018-2025. Pronghorn out front shoulda told ya, disinformation is allowed as long as you're a dumbass
  21. He's a major part of Trump's outreach to genZ, so it stands to reason he would get honors in the transactional way trumpco works
  22. There's too much irony in the context around how he died. He died supporting what he loved
  23. What about transgender mass shooters? I hear they're the real threat
  24. News-wise, the police say they do not have a suspect in custody and the president has announced Kirk's death https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/charlie-kirk-shot-utah-09-10-25#cmfefwck100003b6nd2qwvvis
