The radical left insurrection in LA continues.
Attacking police officers.
It’s openly encouraged and cheered on by Democrat politicians.

The video of ICE pointing at and shooting an Australian reporter yesterday was nasty. Didn’t know they were rubber bullets initially so I thought ICE was about to start a war against a former ally.

We’re dangerously close to a massacre ala Tlatelolco or Ghorman.

In other news, the idiot right has decided to gut and eliminate vaccine research and creation at the CDC.

Measles is already up massively year over year so many of the others are likely on the horizon. My money is on Tetanus making a big comeback.

False - In fact, RFK has removed a committee of advisors, not the research.
Good.
It's these types of bureaucrats that brought about the COVID debacle.

Bad look for the left - violently obstructed the arrest and detainment of illegal aliens.
Burning, looting, attacking police and waving Mexican flags.
It's the lefts playbook, violence when they are out of power.
Been happening since the 60's every time the left are voted out.

I love that you think this without a hint of irony about January 6th, where a police officer was killed and the US Capitol was vandalized and violently assaulted all because the extremist right lost a fair election.

“It’s different” you’ll say in brazen partisan rhetoric. When in reality, it is the same behavior and both should be condemned.

The fact that you cant condemn both shows how much of a partisan hack you are. In other words, a hypocrite.

Funny how Biden deported illegal immigrants at a higher rate than Trump without all these issues. Maybe Trump’s methods are the issue? No, you’d never consider that because as Newt Gingrich once said: “The truth is whatever you want to believe.”

Must be blissful to be that ignorant of the world.

No police officer was killed on Jan 6th at the Capital building.
Only an unarmed woman in a crowd trying to get through a door was killed.

I didn't mention Jan 6th , though.
You did.
Instead of just condemning the behaviour of the violent extremist left wing mob, you tried to deflect.

I do, however, appreciate the pure comedy value of you calling me biased.
The irony is off the charts.

You dolts keep jumping from one thing to the next and keep ending up looking silly.
Last month it was the stock market - that's gone quiet.
Before that it was inflation because of tariffs - that's gone quiet.
Also banged on about deficits - funny considering Bidens disaster - yet since Trump took over the deficit is $150 BILLION lower than the same period in 2024.

Keep going - it's actually quite funny to see you grab onto to the latest straw and watch you lose grip and fall every time.

Jay’s far right extremist ideology has caused a politically motivated shooting of Democratic representatives in Minnesota. These people are monsters. Jay must be ecstatic.

Maybe the Democrats will now stop inciting violence?
They should.
It's way out of hand and all coming from them.
They need to take accountability and learn to calm down the rhetoric.

EDIT : we're still waiting to know more but the suspect has been named as 57-year-old Vance Boelter, Associated Press reported.
He was a Tim WALZ appointee in the Democrat Party
'No Kings' flyers were found in his car.

Boelter has an extensive professional background spanning security, international business, and workforce development.

According to Minnesota Africa United, he holds a doctorate in Leadership for the Advancement of Learning and Service from Cardinal Stritch University and has worked for major corporations including Nestle, Del Monte, and Marathon Speedway.

He previously served on Minnesota's Governor's Workforce Development Board, appointed by Governor Mark Dayton in 2016 and reappointed by Governor Tim Walz in 2019.


The murdered politician recently voted with Republicans on a bill to deny illegal aliens healthcare.

Hortman provided the sole Democratic vote in Minnesota's lower chamber to pass a Republican bill that would strip adult undocumented migrants of state-funded healthcare.

What am I missing here? Where is the link to the shooter and Trump/Republicans?

He's a lunatic. His background is mixed.
He was at one point registered as a Republican, but more recently appointed by Kamala Harris's vice president pick as her running mate, Tim Walz, to a state position in Minnesota (Walz is the Governor Minnesota). That pretty much rules him out as a fan of Trump in more recent years.
That said , it's not really the main issue.
That was just uninformed Ted hurling some childish shite around.

It's best to wait for the details of the shooters motivations.
Speculation ranges from revenge for the people he shot voting with Republicans to stop healthcare payments to illegals, to a personal animus. None of it is confirmed.
The shooter left a note, not yet public.

Meanwhile the shooters wife has also been taken into custody, with guns found in her car.

What needs to happen most of all right now is for Democrat politicians to tone down the rhetoric.
They are so overboard it's madness.

The Democratic argument that Trump is the cause of the drama - is foolishness.

Trump told everyone what he was going to do if he got in power, the people voted for Trump which means they backed his mandate. He is in power and doing the things he said he would do and now the opposition are up in arms and effectively making things difficult. Its THEY who are the cause of the problems.

We had the Brexit vote, the Remain voters tried to derail Brexit at every opportunity, the government enacted what the people asked for, to Leave the EU.

If there is a vote and the winners do what they said clearly they were going to do any drama caused is by the opposition who are not willing to allow democracy to take place. And before some muppet chimes in about the Capital riots, that goes for those people too. You lost the vote, get over it.
