‘Politically Motivated Assassination’ Targets Two Minnesota Democrats UPDATE: Suspect Identified, Had ‘Manifesto’ — ‘No Kings’ Motive? UPDATE: ‘False Flag’? It’s So Confusing!

“A manhunt is now underway for the gunman”: A Minnesota state representative and her husband were shot and killed, and a state senator and his wife were shot and wounded in an “act of targeted political violence” at their homes early Saturday, Minnesota Gov.

The Thing That Never Happens Has Somehow Happened Once Again

All the experts have assured us that election fraud is impossible. No election is ever “rigged” or “stolen” in America, and anyone who says otherwise is emphatically denounced as a crypto-fascist threat to Democracy. Meanwhile, in south Georgia . . .
