We could use ... hear me out ... wacky as it sounds ... a White House Ballroom.

Mark McGowan's avatar

By noon today I expect the White House will issue an announcement that the administration has offered the new White House ballroom for next year’s correspondents dinner.

Glad he's ok. Even if you don't like the man, his assassination would be disastrous

That these people all belong in a nut hut.

Also X. See Drudge.

I don't spend a whole lot of time reading the posts of crazy people. They're losers, they've always been losers, odds are they'll always be losers. What I'm grieving about is learning Kagan is a screamer - always admired that intelligent leftie.

That is so appalling and it's all news to me. So disappointing.

These people need swirlies

Right now, the bloviating speculation by reporters on cable channels is just crazy. Without any information, calling the suspect a "man," asserting that it's unknown whether the suspect had a gun (ignoring all other lethal possibilities), putting video onscreen without any attribution and before they had seen it themselves. You can't hate the media enough.

You write for a website with lots of writers with the same idea

Why don’t you ask the people who think Sandy Hook was faked, Obama was born in Kenya, and Covid was a Chinese bioweapon? Is being suspicious of a shooter at an event the Secret Service should have had locked down completely any crazier than those right wing conspiracy fantasies?

Alex Jones lost a billion dollar lawsuit AND his business asserting all the lies you repeat here. You might remember that fact.

You aren’t worth the effort.

I agree the Sandy Hook and Kenya theories seem ridiculous. I don’t know about you, but I wouldn’t bet *everything* against the Covid as a bioweapon (maybe inadvertently released) possibility. Seems prudent to keep an open mind at least.

There was the matter of the author cover bio blurb on a book that Obama wrote that said he was born in Kenya. Also, the sealing of college records, including whether he had domestic or international status.

I’m not arguing that he was born in Kenya, just that there are some loose threads that give conspiracy theorists something to hold onto. They don’t have to be crazy. Sandy Hook; not so much.

He staged as assassinations attempt to distract from Epstein and Iran? But I thought Iran was to distract from the Epstein files. Man there must be some juicy stuff still hiding in those files.

I think we all know by now that social media amplifies the most extreme coo-coo for coco puffs takes and we shouldn't assume that it is representative. It is sad though that so much of the country has Trump on the brain to the point that it apparently doesn't matter whether he took us into a war with Iran for valid no other choice reasons.

I was not initially in favor of the attack on Iran, but I at least give Trump the benefit of the doubt that he knows stuff that I don't and I certainly want the US to win now. It is bizarre how half the country clings to any theory of satanic behavior on Trump's part and it doesn't bother them that the current theory of just what nefarious things he's done keep morphing and multiplying.

I mean, surely just by random happenstance, with all the things he does, occasionally he must do something right, no?

I'm glad no one got killed at the correspondents dinner.

It was the same with the Southern Democrat sentiment pre-Civil War. Obviously, Lincoln had neither the legislative votes nor the Supreme Court majority to abolish slavery. Particularly, as he was elected far away from an absolute majority. I don't think he would even stood a chance to elect anti-slavery justices to SCOTUS, to reverse Dredd Scott vs Sandford, 1857. But those Democrats talked themselves into secession and Civil War.

Headsup's avatar

it's all true. Worse than sad. Sick. I was at a dinner party the last time. A slick, cool millennial couple first thought 'staged'. No I said, i saw it and was real. They pivoted and replied too bad he missed. This IS the left. Viscous, violent, possessed. I was the only one at dinner who was glad that Trump was still alive. This was among elite, overly educated actually very well known people. It was disgusting.

More interestingly his LinkedIn says he went to Cal Tech but then got a Masters in CS from CSU Dominguez Hills. Most people don’t go from prestigious institutions to lowest quality…

DEI admit? Except I thought Cal Tech was one of the few that didn’t succumb to DEI admissions. Also had an internship at NASA JPL but no serious careers/jobs after that.

I see your follow-up who dunnit post now, I was 5 minutes late to the beat.

Maybe Cole Allen heard that Jodie Foster is impressed by such efforts.

barnabus's avatar

It's their subconscious ID talking, wishing he'd be dead.

Just as with Holocaust denialists - subconsciously wishing Adolf had been more successful.

I think I will never get a Blue Sky account.

He used a wacky teacher out of California? Right…….

If Cole Allen was in on a put-up job then we can retire the title of “Useful Idiot” once and for all.
