      Humans have devolved into a group that no longer values human life. Or life of any kind, animal/plant. The natural world around is there to be exploited.
      Comments on tpt reflect this. Forest=burn it or log it. Petroleum=take it and turn it into a product to be consumed. Same with all natural resources. Living species are meant to be exploited=the top of the chain decides what is best.

Myself I'm thinking he's a liberal al democrat, they seem the most mentally disturbed. They commit more shootings and murder by far, and our prison system is mostly democrats, if they could vote that is. That's another reason the left wants to give the right to vote for those in prison.
You know that the legacy media have run this guys name and have gone thru everything they can find out about him, and have come up empty trying to say he's a Trump supporter or a republican. They have done this since Trump threw his hat in the circus ring.
Those Blue City laws just kill more and more people because they don't enforce the laws where criminals should be locked up when committing a violent crime, not given a no Bail so they can walk free time after time. Just look at our state, violent crime is up Up UP and the rest of the Nation is down 18% , which I don't believe.

      You can bet the violent crime didn't drop 18%
      One thing wrong with the findings Los Angeles and other large cities police departments hadn't turned in the stats according to the news.
      We've had guns for generations, but I can't recall the shootings that we have today. It's multiple reasons what I see. When did we really see the jump? Starting of social media, saying the pledge of Allegiance, taking God out of school, family values, mental health, violent video games? A lot of things, my bet on number one, social media. So many want recognition, couple with mental illness.
      We have more gun laws then ever before and no one would dare be foolish enough to try to grab 34% of American families guns from them, millions of Americans will say Hell No you're not taking mine. A few million will give theirs up that they put in a closet and have never practiced or even held for ages.

    Thinking about whether the shooter was a Democrat, or a Republican, is the problem.
    It doesn't matter how someone votes, when they do something heinous.
    The fact that there is no value of human life is what is troubling.
    And by the way, thank you to the Rancheria for giving money to the community.

        California Gov. Gavin Newsom slammed Maine Republicans on social media for rejecting a gun control bill that would have required a 72-hour waiting period for firearm purchases earlier this year after a gunman opened fire and killed at least 18 people in Lewiston Wednesday night.

        What Newsom failed to look at is Democrats have the majority in both House and Senate inMaine

        Newsom pointed the finger at Republicans, but Democrats have control of both Maine's House and Senate. The June legislation's rejection was bipartisan, failing in the House 73-69 with 65 Republicans and seven Democrats voting against and in the Senate 24-11 with all 13 Republicans and 11 Democrats voting against.

      Because they're liberal democrat the Ladies on The View were so classy they wanted the young man who brought his CCW gun into a mall and killed an active shooter, charged with a crime. They even went as about low as any person I've ever heard about a person who no doubt saved many lives.

      Since his heroic actions (Elisjsha Dicken,22) contradict the carefully-cultivated left-wing narrative, a number of prominent voices have immediately risen up to demonize the young man. Case in point: the majority of the hosts on ABC’s “The View,” whose considered opinion is that Dicken just got “very lucky,” and was probably as bad as the mass shooter since he “broke the law” when he carried his gun into the mall.

      I mean Really? I wonder how they'd feel if a loved one was there? That's just f&#ked up to say that. The majority of legal law-abiding gun owners are not the problem, the ignorant people like on the view think anyone who has a gun is bad. The way they put down that young man they make him sound worse then the guy shooting. Sickening plain and simple.

      Behar attempted to make the point that good guys with guns cannot stop bad guys with guns. Tell that to the boys who stormed the beaches of Normandy.
      But with this good Samaritan thing,” she explained, “listen, I was trained, when I was at the Justice Department, in firearms. And I was trained in defensive firearm training. It is very hard to hit a moving target. It is hard for people that are trained to hit a moving target. It is very lucky that that good Samaritan hit that moving target in that way.”

      Yeah, lucky, 8 out of 10 shots hit the shooter, and from a long distance. Taught to him by his grandfather. And they put this hero down even more.

      “He had a gun permit but he wasn’t supposed to be in the mall with a gun,” Hostin insisted. “So he broke the law, even though he was a good Samaritan.”
      Perhaps skill, rather than luck, had more to do with Dicken’s success in neutralizing the shooter. Dicken was obviously a very competent and cool-headed young man, and recent reports from the police indicate that he took down the gunman in just fifteen seconds, scoring eight hits out of ten shots.

Biden family Corruption thwarted for years until now
Posted on: 2023-10-26 09:31:16   By: Anonymous
 


The FBI received information about possible criminal activity involving the Biden family from more than 40 informants over an extended period of time, but most avenues of investigation were thwarted, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, revealed in a bombshell letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, released Wednesday.

"This letter is based on years of investigation, including the provision of information, records, and allegations from multiple Justice Department whistleblowers that indicate there is - and has been - an effort among certain Justice Department and FBI officials to improperly delay and stop full and complete investigative activity into the Biden family, including but not limited to FD-1023s referencing the Biden family," Grassley wrote.

"This alleged political infection breaks faith with the American people, and it will ruin our governmental institutions should it continue. As just one initial example," he added, "I've been made aware that at one point in time the FBI maintained over 40 Confidential Human Sources that provided criminal information relating to Joe Biden, James Biden, and Hunter Biden."

Grassley said Americans need answers to an essential question: "Did the FBI investigate the information or shut it down?"

You can read the letter here.

grassley_to_justice_deptfbi1023followup.pdf
"That's a lot of taxpayer dollars implemented towards one target or one target set," former Trump advisor Kash Patel said on the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. "Any national security prosecutor like myself will tell you that usually you have a couple or maybe a handful... but 40? That's the most I've ever heard of. That's more than in mob cases and RICO cases."

The Iowa lawmaker further indicated that he had identified 25 Department of Justice and FBI personnel for interviews "who either had a direct or indirect role in the allegations" he mentioned. He further asked that Garland provide him with a litany of records on the Biden family.

The Department of Justice already faces allegations of slow-walking the tax investigation into first son Hunter Biden. A pair of IRS agents who worked on the case came forward earlier this year with allegations that Biden-appointed officials had worked to stifle the investigation and prevent the bringing of more sever charges against Hunter Biden.

Grassley's requests come as the House of Representatives continues its own investigations into the first family. Those efforts have thus far uncovered extensive foreign payments linked to Biden family businesses.

Among the most high-profile of discoveries was a document detailing confidential human source information claiming that Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky had hired Hunter Biden to secure access to his then-vice president father and paid them to shut down a probe from the top Ukrainian prosecutor. After the House secured the opportunity to view the form behind closed doors, Grassley himself published the document in July.

Earlier this month, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer revealed the discovery of a $200,000 check that Joe Biden received in 2018 from his brother James that was linked to the failing healthcare company Americore.

    In bombshell testimony, the federal prosecutor who initially probed the Biden family’s dealings in Ukraine told Congress his team had corroborated enough of an FBI informant’s claim of an alleged bribery scheme involving Joe Biden to merit further investigation but he encountered unprecedented foot-dragging and “reluctance” inside both the FBI and the Delaware U.S. Attorney’s office that took over the case, Just the News has learned.

    Former Pittsburgh U.S. Attorney Scott Brady revealed to the House Judiciary Committee that his team found enough credible evidence in its initial review of Hunter Biden’s dealings with the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings and possible corruption by Joe Biden to refer criminal matters to three separate U.S. Attorney's offices in Brooklyn, Manhattan and Delaware for further investigation.

    But almost immediately after he was assigned by the Justice Department in 2020 to review Biden family matters in Ukraine, Brady said he encountered resistance at both the FBI and the Delaware U.S. Attorney’s office that at times required him to escalate to his bosses in the deputy attorney general’s office.

"Maine mass shooting live updates: Suspect Robert Card ‘truly believed he was hearing people say things’ about him at bowling alley, bar murder sites, family says"

Card is a trained firearms instructor in the Army Reserve, law enforcement sources in the state said Wednesday night. He was stationed out of a National Guard base in Saco, Maine, which he had threatened to shoot up the sources said.

Card had reported “hearing voices” recently, and was reportedly committed to a mental health facility over the summer but was released after a two-week stay.
