Of course they want the child rapist there. Republicans love and condone child rape. Republicans love it when children get raped very much. The whole reason why they don’t want abortions available is so there are more children for them to rape.
The child rapists are also baby killers, don’t forget. We’ve seen time and time again that infant mortality goes up with the abortion bans they push. They want dead babies so they can fuck them.
Anyone want to bet that he's going to use the assassination attempt as an argument for essentially saying Democrat politicians should be killed instead because "we're in a war"?
If Trump doesn't push that, I feel like Tucker Carlson, who apparently has been picked as a headliner for the convention, likely will.
As an extra security measure, I’m hearing that all attendees will be required to wear badges with their photographs. Attendees will not be required to remove their hoods before having their images taken.
Unfortunately the only approved color is white. However, the RNC has a white hood manufacturer on call and can provide them at the door for a premium price.
I’ve heard him actually talk about that in interviews, that his height makes him a bit intimidating.
Also, he’s clearly not talking to the craziest of the crazies most of the time, the people that are obviously dangerous. But who he talks to are bad enough.
Yeah he stuck with January 6th for a certain length of time and then said you know what I think it’s about time to get the fuck out of here. This seems like a similar situation.
I’d say that tons of different battery technologies are in the making or already in production, same for recycling methods. I’d also say that people like you probably don’t give a single fuck about the batteries in all their other devices. Cutting down the production by banning single use batteries , enforcing reuse and recycling and of course offer public transport as an alternative to EVs wherever it is possible are also pretty common demands among your big bad “globalist” crowd.
The article says the gunman then immediately turned and fired at Trump, so I’m not sure that there’s actually a problem with what this officer did. If he’d tried to charge the gunman, he’d immediately have been shot himself, then the guy would have shot at Trump anyway.
It’s a weird story. It claims he aimed at the cop, who then backed off. There probably was enough time do do something but it probably would’ve risked the cop getting himself shot.
From what I see what went wrong is letting the speech continue after receiving a report of a gunmen, and then even worse they let the speech continue after visually confirming the gunmen.
The cop should have radiod "investigatig a gunmen on this rooftop" and as soon as he did they should have stopped the speech and gotten Trump to safety.
Maybe. I don’t know what their threshold is for validity of a report before they take action.
I do think that if the officer had tried to intervene and gotten shot, the guy would have immediately been shot by one of the snipers, maybe fast enough that he wouldn’t have gotten a shot off at Trump. All I can do is speculate; I don’t know what their policy is. But in his place, I probably would have done the same kind of thing, like putting my hands up and taking a step back until I get reinforcements or snipers take him out. But I guess there wasn’t time for that.
But yeah, after confirming a gunman they definitely should have hustled him off the stage.
I could see them let it go on after a report - I’d expect they get a lot of threats and possibly fake reports too.
But for the rest… yea… as soon as he was sighted the security detail should have been on the move to cover trump.
Considering how people get shot for looking like they are thinking of a weapon when near the cops, it’s shocking that the counter snipers didn’t immediately shoot him once he aimed the gun at the officer.
I’m neither a cop nor a secret service agent, but I would expect that they cooperate to some degree at least on these events. Doesn’t even need to be much, just stand a cop with a radio next to an agent with a radio somewhere so they can immediately pass on information to each other and relay it to their respective colleagues. Armed shooter sighted on roof seems like a worthy bit of intel to wanna pass along.
If they don’t have the means to relay information to each other… that seems rather shortsighted on both sides.
There will be a site command where all LE coordinate for this exact reason. The command vehicle/tent will have some relay equipment which allows radio interoperability but it’s not typically used unless needed. Just coordinating via the separate branch commanders is typically preferred.
The FBI identified Crooks by analyzing his DNA, officials told local CBS affiliate KDKA, as he did not have any identification on him.
This is the part that makes me go wtf...
How did they go from sampling his DNA and identifying him in that short amount? I don't remember the exact time, but it seemed like it took about 5 hours.
Edit: It's been a long day and I guess my timeline is way off. I thought they identified the suspect last night, but apparently it was sometime early this morning. That makes the turn around time a lot less wtf.
Maybe not. When I did it for my kids, it was to create a sample that could be used in an emergency, to be held by the parents. It was never given to anyone. No one collected it. It not get added to some database somewhere
He still technically holds the title of president. You never lose the title, just the powers. Carter’s still President Carter. JFK is still President Kennedy. Trump is, extremely unfortunately, still President Trump. None of them get powers, but the title is forever.
Which, fair imo. It’s a position only 45 or 46 people out of millions of Americans have ever achieved (idk how they count the one dude who skipped a term). Keeping that title for life sounds fair to me.
Which is normally fair. However after his never ending pushing of the election being stolen and claiming he was president still, I think it is necessary to clarify he is no-longer president.
