Apologies for the source, but it seems to be accurate as far as ID’ing the shooter.
funny. now everyone is talking about this and not the SCOTUS leaks.
interesting how that happened…
Linkage?
Here’s one link: https://fedia.io/m/politics@lemmy.world/t/1201499/John-Roberts-secret-Trump-memo-revealed-in-huge-SCOTUS-leak#comments
What the fuck else have I missed today?
Something about hyperlinking a link twice seems to have messed with it, at least on my end. I’d suggest just posting the link as is without the formatting.
Fixed it, and it hyperlinks on its own. Why have a link icon in the editor when it’s not necessary? I tried to figure out the fediverse shortcut for links (since it’s a post in lemmy.world but I see it through fedia.io making a mess of the url), but it doesn’t seem to be universal yet either.
Afaik, there’s currently no instance-neutral way to link to a post unfortunately. As for the link icon, that’s used to turn part of a comment into a link without posting the whole url for space and/or aesthetic reasons. Like this.
Also, it looks like there’s still an issue on the Lemmy-UI with that url. I wonder what’s up with that.
I think that was a typo for leaks (Autoincorrect,) but, uhm, here’s the times article that came out
Yes everything is secretly orchestrated by a shadowy cabal dedicated to a deep truth that only you and they know. “Interesting…”
So, uhh, this is wild: https://apnews.com/live/trump-shooting-west-palm-beach-updates#00000191-f7ea-d09f-a59f-f7ff80380000
Routh was convicted in 2002 of possessing a weapon of mass destruction, according to online North Carolina Department of Adult Correction records. The records do not provide details about the case.
Whoooa, WTF. So he’s just out and about casually attempting assassinations and not in jail? I saw elsewhere he was fighting as a volunteer in Ukraine as well. Dude really seems to want to murder people.
I had read that he had gone to Ukraine multiple times to try to fight, I have not read anything about him actually fighting.
Looks like the article was updated:
Routh was charged with carrying a concealed weapon and possessing a weapon of mass destruction, “referring to a fully automatic machine gun,” according to the News & Record.
Thanks, that’s still horrifying, but it’s not straight from bizarro world.
I wonder if “fully auto machine gun” refers to a glock with a switch. You could buy a “totally not a switch” off ebay cheap.
Technically a machine gun by definition uses a rifle caliber
Another Boogaloo taking a shot at him?
I assume the radio silence on Twitter and Truth is because there are like five aides and advisors physically keeping Trump from his phone with their bodies and hiding his access to any communications technologies, so he doesn’t give his followers the “kill” command.
I got no issue with people putting some fear in war criminals.
