Summary
Patrick Thomas Egan, 39, was arrested in Colorado for allegedly attacking TV reporter Ja’Ronn Alex, demanding to know if Alex was a U.S. citizen and declaring, “This is Trump’s America now.”
Police say Egan followed Alex’s vehicle for 40 miles, confronted him at his news station, and tackled him, putting him in a headlock that left Alex struggling to breathe.
The attack is being investigated as a possible bias-motivated crime.
Egan faces charges of assault and harassment, with prosecutors yet to file formal charges.
“This is Trump’s America now”
Last I checked, Biden is still the acting president for another week and a half. Egan is both a bigot and a fucking dumbass.
Isn’t it another 3 weeks?
Yeah, my bad. I should have checked the calendar instead of trusting my sense of time. It feels a lot more like the new year than it actually is…
Ah right. I assumed you were just confusing the date Congress confirms the election results (the equivalent of 2021’s Jan 6th) with the inauguration.
Fingers crossed for the asteroid in the next three weeks
Yes.
You’d think Trump was already in office though. I’ve been seeing headlines detailing Trump’s and musk’s political maneuver’s ever since he won the election. They’re already calling shots for the gop, setting things up for the day they are in complete control. Biden doing fuck-all at this point really doesn’t help matters either. I would hope he’d at least make things difficult for Trump’s transition but i don’t think that’s happening.
Since before the election.
Trump told Republicans to kill the bipartisan border bill long before the election.
Why would he? This is what America wants. People either voted for trump or were too fucking lazy to vote at all.
Because he didn’t want Biden/Dems to get the credit for passing it on their watch.
He’s just ahead of the curve, get ready for more of this stupid dangerous stuff soon.
