The definition of out of touch. Two adulterers and their trophy wives.
The assassination attempt on President Donald J. Trump will dominate the week.
While all of the junk food media focuses on the man who attempted to breach the bubble, you see the Strait of Hormuz is closed. Iran refuses to talk to the United States. They said the damages the U.S. and Israel created puts the world in global turmoil.
Israel is continuing violating the ceasefire. In Lebanon and Gaza, the Israelis have continued airstrikes and assassinations of citizens. They're claims is Hezbollah and Hamas continue violating the ceasefire. They invaded Lebanon and established a "yellow line" around the areas. The cities they've destroyed they're trying to occupy.
Russia has advanced into eastern Ukraine. The Russians have used deadlier tactics in its attempts to seize land.
The Yemenis are about to closing Bab al-Mandab Strait and Gulf of Aden. They warned the U.S. that if they're continuing a blockade and allowing Israel to violate the world, they will be shutting down their waters.
The Midwest has finally went over $4 in regular gas. Ohio, Indiana and Michigan have gas prices at $4.15⁹ a gallon. The Rust Belt, the area where Trump did his best in 2016 and 2024, have now soured on his policies.
Former vice president Kamala Harris is hinting another run. She appeared in Arkansas, Georgia and South Carolina. Democrats and leftists are at odds over her potential run.
Their is a coordinated effort to push for the White House ballroom from the far right and that broccoli brained senator John Fetterman, the independent from Pennsylvania. Ashley St. Clair, a former MAGA influencer stated that many of their idiots are rushing to push for the ballroom. A federal judge blocked the construction stating it will take an act of Congress to approve funds. An Israeli developer has taken control of the construction.
Florida is pushing for a new congressional map which eliminates four Democratic districts in Orlando, Tampa, West Palm Beach and Miami areas. Gov. Ron DeSantis is calling for a special session to pass this.
King Charles III and Queen Camilla first U.S. visit. The King has survived a cancer scare.
He is very unpopular in Great Britain. He waited over 50 years to become King.
Since Princess Diana's death, I could care less for the royals. Charles took reign in 2022.
Charles will embrace some of Washington’s most formal ceremonial trappings on Tuesday as he tries to emphasize a bond between the United Kingdom and the United States that is so strong it can withstand the political turmoil of the moment.
He will become the first British monarch to address the U.S. Congress since his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in 1991. Her speech highlighted the shared history of both countries and the importance of their democratic values, themes Charles will likely reinforce on Tuesday.
Such addresses are an opportunity afforded to only the most prominent world leaders, including Pope Francis, Václav Havel and Winston Churchill. It will likely mark the most extensive public remarks Charles will deliver during a four-day visit to the U.S. that’s intended to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary of its violent independence from Britain.
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., became the first sitting leader of his chamber to address the U.K. Parliament earlier this year. He attended a garden party with the king in Washington on Monday and said he told him he would be “well received” in Congress.
The king, accompanied by Queen Camilla, will begin his day with a meeting at the White House with President Donald Trump. The Oval Office encounter offers the potential for the freewheeling, sometimes controversial meetings with foreign leaders that have become routine during Trump’s second term.
U.S. and British taxpayers pay for Trump and Charles' lavish expenses.
But given the expressly apolitical nature of the British monarch and Trump’s fondness for the royal family, the likelihood of an awkward meeting may be reduced. Trump will host Charles on Tuesday evening for a state banquet at the White House.
The visit comes at a challenging moment for U.S.-U.K. relations. Trump’s up-and-down relationship with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has taken a particularly sour turn over the past several months as the president has sought to rally international support for the war in Iran. Trump criticized Starmer, who has largely resisted his overtures, by saying “this is not Winston Churchill that we’re dealing with.”
Trump has also imposed tariffs on the U.K. and warned of additional levies despite a Supreme Court ruling earlier this year that has made such unilateral moves more challenging. Trump threatened just last week to slap a “big tariff” on the U.K. if it doesn’t scrap a digital services tax on U.S. technology companies.
Trump has more broadly challenged the traditional transatlantic alliance with efforts to annex Greenland and threats to walk away from NATO. He has repeatedly imposed tariffs on and taunted Canada, a member of the British Commonwealth.
Meanwhile, Charles has faced some calls on Capitol Hill to meet with victims of Jeffrey Epstein while he is in the U.S. There’s no indication that he will do so even as the scandal involving the convicted sex offender has ensnared his brother, who was arrested in February over misconduct allegations, which he denies.
Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., urged the king over the weekend to at least address the issue during his congressional speech.
House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries blamed Republican policies on Monday for straining the U.S.-U.K. relationship.
“Hopefully, the king’s visit is going to go a long way toward repairing the damage that this administration has done to one of our most important allies in the world,” Jeffries said.
Charles and Camilla arrived at the nation’s capital on Monday and held a tea with the president and first lady Melania Trump. The royal couple will continue their U.S. trip later this week with stops in New York City and Virginia.
The Los Angeles County Superior Court has released an indictment against singer D4VD and it is bad work. He also is under federal watch. TMZ revealed the disgraced entertainer has allegedly child pornography on his devices.
He is accused of murdering a 14 year old girl who he groomed into a sexual relationship.
The victim's body was decapitated and stuffed into his Tesla. It was discovered months later after a worker noticed the smell of death.
The girl who was known to run away, allowed this grown ass man manipulate her into this relationship where it lead to her life being snuffed.
This case was being treated as a possible DEATH card indictment.
The child pornography crimes alone will get the U.S. Department of Justice involved. He took the victim across state lines which counts as interstate trafficking of a minor.
David Burke is held on a no bond. If he is released, he will surrender his passport, be restricted from contacting anyone associated with the victim and be held on restrictions which limit his music career.
He has pleaded not guilty Monday to a murder charge in the death of a 14-year-old girl who was last known to be alive nearly a year ago and whose dismembered and decomposed body was found in the entertainer’s apparently abandoned Tesla.
The charges revealed key details and were among the first concrete public moves made in a grisly and horrific case that had been under a largely secret investigation in the seven months since Celeste Rivas Hernandez was found dead.
The 21-year-old D4vd, whose legal name is David Burke, was charged with first-degree murder, lewd and lascivious acts with a person under 14 and mutilating a body, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office said. A defense lawyer entered not guilty pleas to all counts on behalf of Burke, who made his first court appearance Monday. He appeared behind glass in a custody area, dressed in black. A judge said he would continue to be held without bail.
The girl’s parents appeared at the hearing. They looked down as they entered the courtroom and sat in the audience. They did not speak to reporters outside court.
Alleged child sex abuse during a career on the rise
Authorities alleged the Houston-born alt-pop singer killed Rivas Hernandez to protect a career on the rise after she threatened to report their sexual relationship. His debut album, “Withered,” was released just two days after authorities said she was last known to be alive. She was reported missing by her family in 2024, when she was 13. That was her age when, according to allegations in a criminal complaint, the singer engaged in continuous sexual abuse of her for at least a year from September 2023 to September 2024. California law penalizes abuse of a child under 14 especially harshly.
Authorities, who described her Monday as a “runaway,” said Rivas Hernandez was 14 when she was killed with a sharp object on or around April 23, 2025, a day she was at Burke’s house in the Hollywood Hills.
Prosecutors allege Burke mutilated her body about two weeks later.
The murder charges include special circumstances — lying in wait, committing crime for financial gain and murdering the witness in an investigation — that could carry the death penalty. Prosecutors haven’t announced whether they will seek it.
The witness Burke is alleged to have killed is Rivas Hernandez herself, who could have given testimony about the sex crime allegations.
This is not a normal couple.
Defense says D4vd ‘did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez’
“We believe the actual evidence will show David Burke did not murder Celeste Rivas Hernandez,” lead defense attorney Blair Berk said in court. “We would like to have the evidence come into the light of day.”
Berk told the judge that after media reports of months of secret grand jury proceedings, she would like a public preliminary hearing to take place as soon as possible so a judge can decide whether there is enough evidence for trial.
Burke is entitled under California law to have the evidentiary hearing within 10 court days of his arraignment. Nearly all defendants waive their right to have it happen that fast, but he didn’t. A hearing to work out what will happen next was scheduled for Thursday.
“We’ll be very happy to put on the evidence that we’ve collected,” said Deputy District Attorney Beth Silverman, the lead prosecutor.
Sexual predator faces a jury trial.
A missing child and the grisly discovery of a body
The case is a “a parent’s nightmare,” Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said at a news conference Monday announcing the charges.
The long-dead body of Rivas Hernandez was found inside a Tesla that was towed from the Hollywood Hills on Sept. 8, when Burke was on tour in support of his album. It was a day after she would have turned 15.
Her family had reported her missing from her hometown of Lake Elsinore, about 70 miles (112 kilometers) southeast of Los Angeles.
The singer had been under investigation by an LA County grand jury looking into the death. The probe was officially secret, but its existence — and Burke’s designation as its target — was revealed in February when his mother, father and brother objected in a Texas court to subpoenas demanding they testify. The 2023 Tesla Model Y was registered in the singer’s name at their address, according to court filings. Authorities did not publicly acknowledge him as a suspect until his arrest Thursday.
Police investigators searching the Tesla in a tow yard found a cadaver bag “covered with insects and a strong odor of decay,” court documents said. Detectives partially unzipped the bag and found a head and torso.
Investigators from the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office removed the bag and “discovered the arms and legs had been severed from the body,” according to court documents. A second black bag was found under the first, and dismembered body parts were inside it. No cause of death has been publicly revealed, and police got a judge to block the release details of the autopsy. The court order was expected to be lifted after the charges.
“I had the chance to meet with some of the family members of Celeste and their grief is incalculable as to what happened to their daughter,” Hochman said.
He knew what he was doing.
D4vd was a social media-savvy singer making breakthroughs
D4vd, pronounced “David,” gained popularity among Gen Z for his blend of indie rock, R&B and lo-fi pop. He went viral on TikTok in 2022 with the hit “Romantic Homicide,” which peaked at No. 4 on Billboard’s Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. He then signed with Darkroom and Interscope Records and released his debut EP “Petals to Thorns” and a follow-up, “The Lost Petals,” in 2023.
The Associated Press confirmed that D4vd was dropped by Interscope last year.
When the body was discovered, the singer continued his North American tour, but when reports of his possible involvement spread widely, he canceled the final two shows and a European tour that was to follow.
On April 11, about two weeks before the killing, he made his debut appearance at the Coachella music festival, where he talked to the AP.
“I was such an internet kid. The internet is really what I claim as my home,” he said. “My neighborhood was Instagram and the society was the internet.”
The rumor has it that MAGA Minaj dumps her sexual predator husband.
Pro Trump entertainer allegedly kicked her husband out the house. He allegedly had numerous affairs while she was making nice with President Donald J. Trump.
That Gold Card.
Midway Wrap Up in May.
Remember, those words. It's OK.
Cause when the fans stop buying, blacklist and "cancel" you, that's freedom too.
Onika Petty, aka Nicki Minaj is rumored to separated from her husband Kenneth Perry.
Minaj was not at the White House Correspondents Dinner as earlier reported. This personal matter may have affected her appearance.
The internet is on fire with speculation that Minaj has thrown her husband, Kenneth Petty, out of their multimillion-dollar California mansion. According to the rumor mill, Petty has been relegated to a tiny house in his old Queens neighbourhood, sparking immediate speculation about the state of their high-profile marriage. The whispers suggest infidelity may be to blame, with reports that Petty allegedly got another woman pregnant. It looks like a classic case of a massive "bag fumble," but as always with celebrity gossip, the truth is complicated. Let us dissect the claims, the evidence, and the timeline of this chaotic saga.
The rumor gained massive traction when YouTube personality DJ Vlad stepped into the fray. On April 27, 2026, Vlad took to X (formerly Twitter) with a direct accusation. He posted a screenshot of what appears to be New York's sex offender registry, claiming it showed Kenneth Petty now living in an 800 square foot house in Jamaica, Queens, rather than the $20 million Hidden Hills mansion Nicki owns.
"It looks like Nicki Minaj dumped her husband, Kenneth Petty," Vlad wrote. "According to the sex offender registry, he's now living in a tiny 800 square foot house in Jamaica, Queens, instead of the $20M Hidden Hills mansion Nicki owns. The rumor is that he got another girl pregnant, but that's not confirmed. Is this the greatest bag fumble of all time?" He stood firmly by his assessment of the legal documents, arguing that the registry points to physical location, not a decoy address. This ignited a firestorm between Vlad and the "Barbz," Nicki's famously protective fanbase.
If she kicked him out, he has no where to go. The label follows him for life.
Fans are divided over the claim
The reaction from fans has been anything but unified. The "Barbz" immediately went on the defensive, accusing DJ Vlad of manufacturing drama. "Vlad you're an idiot. This is nothing more than a solution to the swatting problem," one user argued, suggesting Petty might be using a different address to protect the family's privacy from police hoaxes.
Vlad shot back aggressively at the skeptics. "That's not how the sex offender registry works, idiot. It's where you're physically located. You think Nicki and their son are living with him in that tiny house? Barbs are really the stupidest people on earth," he fired off. Meanwhile, others are simply marvelling at the sheer scale of the alleged financial and social downfall. "From $20M Hidden Hills mansion to 800 sq ft in Queens is the craziest downgrade in history ... is this the biggest bag fumble of all time or did nicki finally wake up?" one noted.
However, some users offered a more cynical take, suggesting that Petty may have never fit into Nicki's celebrity lifestyle. "He was never with that multi-personality thing she got goin on," one person commented, implying that Petty preferred the streets of Queens over the Hollywood Hills and had a backup plan all along.
Where the rumors first emerged
While DJ Vlad brought the story to the mainstream hip hop audience this week, he was not the originator of the scandal. The rumors actually began weeks earlier on the gossip blog "Crazy Days and Nights" (CDAN). In late March, CDAN posted a "blind item" with a very specific description. The post read, "The husband of this foreign-born former A+ list rapper got another woman pregnant".
Fans immediately connected the dots to Pink Friday rapper, who was born in Trinidad and Tobago. While blind items are traditionally viewed with heavy scepticism, defenders of the site point to a recent track record. Followers noted that this exact page published claims about Klay Thompson cheating on Megan Thee Stallion days before she publicly exposed him on Instagram. Proponents argue that while they remain rumors, the site clearly has sources feeding them information before it breaks into the mainstream.
Previous allegations against Kenneth Petty
To understand why this rumor has legs, one must look at Kenneth Petty's extensive legal history. His status as a registered sex offender stems from a conviction for first degree attempted rape in New York in 1995, when he was just 16 years old. The victim, Jennifer Hough, has alleged that Petty held her at knifepoint and led her into a home to attack her. This has been a dark cloud over the couple's marriage since they reunited in 2018.
Beyond the 1995 conviction, Petty has faced legal trouble well into his marriage with Nicki. He pleaded guilty to failing to register as a sex offender when he moved to California to live with the rapper. He was also convicted of first-degree manslaughter in 2002, for which he served seven years in prison. Additionally, Nicki and Petty faced a lawsuit from Jennifer Hough alleging witness intimidation and harassment. Hough claimed that Nicki and her associates attempted to bribe her to recant her rape accusation, offering $500,000 and birthday shout-outs to her daughter. Nicki was eventually dropped from that specific lawsuit due to jurisdictional issues.
For now, these remain rumors. Nicki Minaj, known for her explosive social media rants, has remained silent on the "split" and the "pregnancy" accusations. Until she breaks her silence, fans are left with nothing but speculation surrounding a very public address change.
Nicki Minaj has every right to speak her opinions as every other entertainer. I don't agree with what she does or this new phase. I am tried of this punch down stuff. It may have lead to her becoming supportive of President Donald J. Trump.
I was a fool back in 2020 and 2024. I was all in on the bandwagon stuff.
The bandwagon stuff doesn't pay your bills, feed yourself or your family.
Democrats and progressives: Stop worrying about the noise and start worrying about the paychecks.
If y'all trying to cancel a rapper for expressing their opinions, you are no better than the Zionists who are trying to cancel people for speaking out against Israel's crimes against humanity.
So in 2026, Democrats stop worrying about the noise. Ignore the noise.
Americans could give two fucks about Nicki Minaj and her antics. We got more important issues to worry about. Let's talk about affordability. I don't see anything incriminating about pictures of Trump, former president Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Steve Bannon, David Copperfield, Chris Tucker and others posing with Jeffrey Epstein. It is a distraction from holding the president accountable for not being transparent in doing his job.
This is why you're not guaranteed a Blue Wave come Midterms.
She is literally defending a pedophile while being married to a sexual predator.
Most fans are tired of watching rappers exploit luxury, crime, degenerative behavior, disrespect towards women, disrespect towards LGBTQ and endorsements of politicial establishment figures.
This is a mannequin. In the 2020s, real incidents.
Well.
This is something that I will now have to devote my time to.
Let me be clear... I am not suicidal. I will not ever no matter how cruel the world is put an end to my life. I rather die standing on business than allowing failure to kill me.
Making it as clear as I am posting. If anything happens to me, I will say that lived a good life and have a bloodline with my son. But there will be no unaliving myself in this category.
Since 2020, there were 70 incidents of Black men one white man and one Latinx man being hung from trees. These incidents are called suicide but I am calling it bullshit.
Malcolm Harsch, 38, Black: Found hanging from a tree in Victorville, California (May 31, 2020). Ruled suicide.
Robert Fuller, 24 (or reported as 20-24), Black: Found hanging near Palmdale City Hall, California (June 10, 2020). Initially ruled suicide; family and activists raised questions.
Dominique Alexander, 27, Black: Found hanging in a Manhattan park, New York (around early June 2020). Ruled suicide.
Unnamed 17-year-old Black boy: Found hanging from a tree in a Spring, Texas, elementary school playground (around June 2020). Ruled suicide with no foul play.
Trevonte Jamal Shubert-Helton (or Trevontae), 29, Black: Found hanging in Swallow Creek Wildlife Management Area, Hiawassee, Georgia (February 21, 2024). Ruled suicide.
Javion MaGee, 21, Black: Found with a rope around his neck leaning against a tree, Henderson, North Carolina (2024). Ruled suicide; family sought further review.
Earl Smith, 58, Black: Found hanging from a tree in Albany, New York (June 2025). Ruled suicide; community protests followed.
Demartravion “Trey” Reed, 21, Black: Found hanging from a tree on Delta State University campus, Cleveland, Mississippi (September 15, 2025). Initially ruled suicide; family requested second autopsy amid questions about injuries.
Tory Medley (or similar spelling), Black: Reported in Wisconsin/Mississippi context (2025). Part of broader discussions.
Mario Kaiser Jr., 30, man of color: Found with a noose in North Carolina (April 2025). Ruled suicide; no autopsy performed per some reports.
A white man, Cory Zukatis, 35, was found hanging in Vicksburg, Mississippi, on the same day as Trey Reed (September 15, 2025) and ruled a suicide; unrelated per police.
Recently a 19 year old Hispanic man was found hanging from a tree in Washington, DC.
The 19-year-old was found hanging from a tree in Washington, DC, in a case that investigators say is being treated as a suicide.
Officers were called around 1:30 p.m. on Monday, April 13, to the 900 block of Quackenbos Street NW after a report of an unconscious person, the Metropolitan Police Department said.
When they arrived, they found the teen hanging from a tree limb, unresponsive and not breathing.
DC Fire and EMS attempted lifesaving efforts at the scene, but he was pronounced dead.
The teen, identified only as a 19-year-old Hispanic man, was taken to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for an autopsy, which will determine the official cause and manner of death, officials said in an update on Thursday, April 16.

Quit blaming politics. Blame the messed up system that allows these gunmen to obtain firearms without strict background checks. A system that allows firearms to outnumber the fucking human population.
The far right went quick on blaming the left for the disruption. A man tried to enter the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday. He was armed. The U.S. Secret Service stopped him.
President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, First Lady Melania Trump, Second Lady Usha Vance, White House officials, U.S. Representatives, U.S. Senators, journalists and entertainers were not harmed. Some were shaken but no one but the suspect and an agent were injured.
The Secret Service did its job. But to the far right, its the fault of everyone who dares speak out against the fucked up system and this senile president. Their rhetoric is just noise. The status quo, a lack of laws to stop gun violence puts our president and others in danger.
This shit never happened when former presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden were in charge. This is the first time in Trump’s presidency where he decided to attend this. He never attended these events in his four years of the first term. This is clearly into his second term and second year.
During his press conference he mentioned that goddamn White House ballroom and bunker.
Many have disputed this as an op or false flag.
He has a job approval of 33%.
Republicans are in desperation as they lost crucial races to hold onto power. Their plan to do midway redistricting has generated backlash. Inflation has spiked. Unemployment has increased. The aggression in Iran sparked by U.S. and Israel has led to global uncertainty.
Israel has continued its war crimes and endless aggression. The genocide continues in Gaza, the West Bank, Syria and Lebanon.
Gas prices are averaging at $4.15⁹ a gallon nationwide.
An interesting night.
Iran has no plans to talk to the U.S. after all the damage its caused to its sovereignty.
Iran has made AI Lego videos disputing the whole incident as a false flag to help him and Republicans win the Midterms.
Trump had attacked Candace Owens on Thursday. He did a handful of Truth Social/X posts attacking Obama, Biden, Hillary Clinton, CNN, The New York Times and Iran.
The junk food media caught the president apparently napping while White House officials were talking.
So much chaos, but its the left's fault.
With flawed figures like FBI Director Kash Patel, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, interim Attorney General Todd Blanche and Trump, the federal government official take is likely gonna be disputed.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Social media posts that appear to match the California man arrested Saturday in the shooting at the White House correspondents’ dinner show he is a highly educated tutor and amateur video game developer.
A May 2025 profile photo of Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California, appears to match the appearance of the man in a photo of the alleged attacker being taken into custody that was posted Saturday night by Trump. The photo, posted to the social networking site LinkedIn, shows him in a cap and gown after graduating with a master’s degree in computer science from California State University-Dominguez Hills.
Allen, 31, earned a bachelor’s degree in 2017 in mechanical engineering from the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. He listed his involvement there in a Christian student fellowship and a campus group that battled with Nerf guns.
Bin Tang, a computer science professor at California State University-Dominguez Hills, told The Associated Press that Allen took a few of his classes before graduating.
“He was a very good student indeed, always sitting in the first row of my class, paying attention, and frequently emailing me with coursework questions. Soft spoken, very polite, a good fellow. I am very shocked to see the news,” Tang wrote in an email.
A local ABC station in Los Angeles included an interview with Allen during his senior year of college as part of a story about new technologies to help people as they age. He had developed a prototype for a new type of emergency brake for wheelchairs.
Allen contributed $25 to a Democratic Party political action committee in support of Kamala Harris for president in 2024, according to federal campaign finance records.
The broccoli brain Sen. John Fetterman (I-PA) with far right influencer Debra Lea
Allen’s online resume says he worked for the last six years at C2 Education, a company that offers admissions counseling and test preparation services to aspiring college students. A 2024 post on the company’s Facebook page listed Allen as the company’s teacher of the month. The company did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment Saturday night.
Allen also posted that he had developed a video game for the Steam platform based on molecular chemistry. A post under Allen’s name said he was working to develop a new “top-down shooter” combat game set in outer space.
Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser said officials don't believe anyone else was involved in the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
Jeanine Pirro, U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, said the suspect is being charged with two counts: using a firearm during a crime of violence, and assault on a federal officer using a dangerous weapon.
Jeffrey Carroll, Interim Chief of D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department, stressed "this is an isolated incident with one individual."
Are you getting tired of this?
The status quo politics of "can't do nothing" or "now is not the time."
On average there are two mass shootings a day now. It never stops.
Uh oh. Better see if the far right preparing to make this shooter a leftist.
I wonder if Charlie Kirk got something to say about it?
Nevermind.
Only in America, how many more mass shootings must we deal with before we finally curb gun violence?
The United States is the most violent country in the world. Israel and Russia follow behind respectfully. Israel, Russia and the United States are the most hated countries in the world.
The United States is downsizing in democracy.
What is wrong with white men, white women and white boys?
It's the guns stupid!
Things to keep in mind when the blame game comes, will the suspect be:
White
Black
Latino
Muslim
Arab
Non White National
Immigrant
A member of the LGBTQ community
A disgruntled employee
A former student
A current student
A gang member
A so called leftist
A person who has conservative views
A person with easy access to firearm
The person with easy access to firearms should be the only answer. Alas, the far right is hoping for this to be a person they can scapegoat as their next de jour of outrage. Anyone can get firearm in the United States. Even, people who are non U.S. citizens are allowed to obtain firearms.
The real issue is not just guns, it's white men, white women tears and white boys. They are losing their goddamn minds. Inspired by loneliness, politics, job loss, social media trends, endless perceptions of others, the lack of opportunities (besides joining the military) and the need to be ahead of everyone else is what drives these fools to commit endless chaos.
If the suspect is white, they will give the shooter a glaring profile. If the suspect is not white, expect the far right to claim its the left or accused a certain nationality, race, religion or sexuality the cause of mass shootings.
White privilege also santizes the white shooters. Already we are getting details of the mass shooters. Glaring profiles of these white mass shooters to paint them as unfortunate circumstances. Ignoring the fact, these terrorists had signs of potential danger but their families thought it was just noise.
That restraining order doesn't mean much to a deranged individual. It's a trigger!
I wish things could have turned out well! But unfortunately, a shooter never abides to a court order!
How can a piece of paper protect a victim when it's not reliant on stopping the perpetrator (from causing harm)?
The real issue is gun violence. Not comedians. Not activists. Not Black men. Not immigrants. Not Muslims. Not transgender Americans. Not video games. Not movies. Not rap music. Not the left.
The confirm image of the shooter.
A man made crisis that can be solved if these incompetent politicians and media agitators stop making excuses for the continued gun violence epidemic. Prayers are just words and speeches. Instead offering words, how about policies?
The United States is downsizing in democracy and freedom.
I just want to say that the Second Amendment is White, period.
A bullet does not care about color. We all bleed red and so many lives are lost to gun violence. Republicans offer no solutions other than "thoughts and prayers", "send them back" with a touch of "lock em up."
Gun violence continues to be the number one threat in the United States.
I dismiss this ridiculous notion that criminals are the problem, not the guns. Firearms are often obtained through legal purchases.
Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem. The problem is lawmakers not willing to stop gun violence.
According to the far right: White shooters are always mentally ill or lone wolves. The far right believes they should receive some sympathy for their crimes. Black shooters are unrepentant thugs and criminals who deserve lengthy time in the iron college or death. Gay and transgender shooters are active groomers who want to be pedophiles on children. Muslim shooters are terrorists who should be surveiled or deported. Hispanic and Asian shooters are illegal immigrants and they should be deported. According to the far right, almost all white [or non-white] mass shooters are registered Democrats [leftist or some progressive activist] because they have liked or done one thing common to the politics of the left. Of course, they often share or post disinformation by using the ridiculous "Sam Hyde" meme or make bogus social media platforms with the shooter's image as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white or associated with conservative causes. The far right says a white person should "protect" themselves from thugs, terrorists or protesters. They believe the use of firearms are "justified" if they are protesting or even instigating a conflict. The far right believes if a shooter is a police officer, an active military member, a veteran or a citizen who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified. If the shooters are teens in urban communities, the far right automatically assume the gunmen are Black. Even if the evidence turns out that the shooter has alignment with conservative causes or Republicans, the far right dismisses it as a hoax or a plot to demonize the MAGA movement.
The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox, Twitter and they force it into national news. They make the case to blame Black Lives Matter, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Democrats, Rev. Al Sharpton and rap music for Black on whatever violence. Republican lawmakers who do not live in urban neighborhoods often troll social media to talk about gun violence or crime in Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee and New York City while not doing a damn thing to stop it. If a white person shoots a Black person, the shooter is given the benefit of doubt. White shooters are given glowing profiles about their perfect lives and how friends noticed something but refused to do something. When it comes to Black shooters, automatic vilification. They don't see mental illness. They see it as gang violence, allegedly fatherless homes, Democratic policies or the need for more firearms.
Trump gave us open season.
WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL! IT'S "SUIT AND TIE" WHITE SUPREMACY ON TELEVISION, RADIO, THE INTERNET AND AMERICAN POLICY!

IF THE UNITED STATES CONTINUES TO AID ISRAEL, THE WORLD WILL BOYCOTT THE U.S. AND ABANDON THE DOLLAR!
I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.
These murderers don't have mental illness. They are calculated and prepared. It happened to be a moment where they have the opportunity to take out lives.

There's no sickness in the head. Most mass shooters legally obtain their assault rifles without little background checks. They have likely no criminal history and they are willing to use the assault weapon in the only thing it's good for: Killing numerous lives.

Iran isn't a threat. The U.S. citizen with a firearm is the threat.
People, please do not resort to the levels of those who profit off the anger. The anger of right wing Americans in the wake of white nationalist Charlie Kirk's death has sparked a censorship and harassment campaign.

Any current or future government shutdown will definitely rile up people. When you start fucking with the money, people start going crazy. Especially when their needs outmatch the noise of Congress and the junk food media.

Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence. Let them know that we are tired of police officers using immunity when committing death of suspects in custody. You want no more qualified immunity for police officers who use deadly force when it's not justified. Let them know that deporting law abiding immigrants seeking refuge is inhumane. You want the U.S. to improve the immigration process. You want the U.S. lawmakers stop dehumanizing human beings. You want no more wars in the Middle East. You want the U.S. to prove to the world its a beacon of freedom. You want our American military and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents out of our cities, the Middle East and every fucking international conflict in the world. You want legislation to focus on lowering the cost of rent, lowering the cost of food, lowering the cost of hospital visits, improving healthcare and building relationships with other nations. Let them know that you tired of being lectured about oppresive regimes overseas when the very people running our state and federal government are doing the same in real time. Let them know that you will not tolerate a government shutdown which affects federal services for Americans in need or in support of services. Let them know that pulling out of the UN Human Rights Organization, World Health Organization and Paris Climate Accords will put the U.S. in danger when catastrophic event happen. Let them know that you are tired of private equity firms getting away with destroying small businesses and long established companies. Let them know that you are tired of your taxpayer money going to foreign nations like Israel and Ukraine. You are tired of hearing about "Israel having a right to..." and the bogus claims of being anti-semitic or in support of terrorism because you support the freedom of Palestinians. You are tired of the propaganda being forced on your media platforms.
We have bigger issues at home and our tax dollars should solve the housing crisis, lowering food prices, fixing roads, bridges, helping reinvest in struggling urban and rural communities. We have hospitals closing, big box retailers leaving communities and television programs dying. There are bigger issues in the country than Israel. You want an immediate ceasefire, a weapons embargo, sanctions and accountability for war crimes done by Israel. You want no more domestic or foreign influence in American elections. You also want to make sure future presidents and lawmakers avoid influence from lobbyists and special interest groups.
LET ME BE CLEAR, PRAYERS DO NOT STOP FUCKING BULLETS!
THIS IS A MAN-MADE ISSUE! WHY IS IT SO HARD TO STOP A MAN-MADE ISSUE LIKE GUN VIOLENCE?
STOP SAYING YOU'RE PRAYING TO PEOPLE AFFECTED BY GUN VIOLENCE. IT IS FUCKING PLATITUDES. DO SOMETHING ABOUT FUCKING GUN VIOLENCE YOU WORTHLESS LAWMAKERS. PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, THE CHOICE TO CONTINUE THE STATUS QUO WILL KEEP YOU AND OTHERS AT RISK OF VIOLENCE. MAKE A CHOICE TO STOP THE CHAOS AND ACT LIKE A FUCKING 79 YEAR OLD MAN. DO SOMETHING TO HELP THE COUNTRY.
IRAN IS RIGHT! THE UNITED STATES HAS A BUNCH OF PEOPLE INSTALLED WITH A SIXTH GRADE EDUCATION. AMERICANS MAKE SO MUCH MONEY OFF OF DIVISION. THEY ARE WILLING TO SOW CHAOS TO THE NEXT POTENTIAL THREATS. I WISH WE CAN STOP GASLIGHTING AND COME TO SENSIBLE SOLUTIONS. HOWEVER, WHITE LEADERSHIP IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF THE CHAOS IN THE WORLD.
President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, First Lady Melania Trump, Second Lady Usha Vance and White House officials are safe.
Erika Kirk is safe.
Journalists and entertainers are safe.
Okay, the United States is the most violent country on the freaking planet. The old saying don't get comfortable really, really means something.
Can't these assholes just place the blame on the shooter and the fucking lawmakers who made it easier for people gassed up to own firearms?
Okay I haven't covered every mass shooting in the U.S.
Since Jan. 1 to April 1, we have over 130 mass shootings. That is more than days on a fucking calendar.
Any city in bold is multiple incidents. Any city that is large text means bigger crisis.

The junk food media is now off the chaos of Iran and economic uncertainty to focus on the shooting at the Hilton where the 2026 White House Correspondent Dinner wss held. All lawmakers, former presidents, former vice presidents and media figures will react to this.
U.S. Justice Department interim Todd Blanche, Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin and FBI Director Kash Patel will be on this.
U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro will be involved.
The suspect is a 31 year old man from California. Cole Tomas Allen is facing felonious assault charges and is being treated for injuries.
The suspect in a shooting incident at a high-profile correspondents’ dinner attended by President Donald Trump and other senior U.S. officials was carrying guns and knives and was believed to be acting alone, the mayor of Washington said Saturday night.
All in.
“We have no reason to believe at this time that anyone else was involved,” Mayor Muriel Bowser said at a news conference. “At this point, it does appear he is a lone actor.”
She added, “There does not appear to be any sort of danger to the public at this time.”
Trump is addressing reporters at the White House after he and other top leaders of the United States were evacuated from an annual dinner of White House correspondents on Saturday night after a shooting incident outside the ballroom.
The shooting suspect was identified as Cole Tomas Allen, 31, of Torrance, California, two law enforcement officials told The Associated Press.
Trump said the suspect was armed with multiple weapons before stopped by Secret Service. One officer was shot, but he was protected by a bulletproof vest.
“He was shot from very close distance with a very powerful gun, and the vest did the job,” Trump said.
The Secret Service and other authorities swarmed the banquet hall at the Washington Hilton as guests ducked under tables by the hundreds. Audible gasps echoed through the ballroom as guests realized something was happening. Hundreds of journalists got on phones to call in information.
“Out of the way, sir!” someone yelled. Others yelled to duck. From one corner, a “God Bless America” chant began as the president was escorted offstage. He fell briefly — he apparently tripped — and was helped up by Secret Service agents. Outside the hotel, members of the National Guard and other authorities flooded the area as helicopters circled overhead.
Authorities said the incident occurred outside the subterranean ballroom where Trump and other guests were seated. After an initial attempt to resume, the event was scrapped for the night and will be rescheduled.
“We will do this again,” said Weijia Jiang, president of the White House Correspondents’ Association. Shortly afterward, staff began breaking down table settings and the presidential lectern.
All officials protected by the Secret Service were evacuated. Those in attendance included Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio — and many other leaders of the Trump administration.
House Speaker Mike Johnson said he and his wife, Kelly, who both attended the event, were “praying for our country tonight.” The House Democratic leader, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries of New York, said “The violence and chaos in America must end.”
Reports of hearing shots fired
Some in the crowd reported hearing what they believed to be five to eight shots fired. The banquet hall — where hundreds of prominent journalists, celebrities and national leaders were awaiting Trump’s remarks — was immediately evacuated. Members of the National Guard took up position inside the building as people were allowed to leave but not immediately reenter. Security outside was also extremely tight.
Republican Rep. MIke Lawler of New York, a guest at the dinner, said he heard a pop and “we didn’t know what the hell it was. And then you heard all sorts of things clatter.” Lawler said he gets “death threats often” and said “I think we live in a climate where everybody recognizes its a problem, but I don’t think people fully appreciate how much of a problem it really is.”
The event had initially appeared set to resume after the disorder. Servers refolded napkins and refilled water glasses in preparation for Trump’s return. Another worker prepared the president’s teleprompter for the remarks he was scheduled to make.
Generally, the Hilton hotel, where the dinner has taken place for years, remains open to regular guests during the correspondents’ dinner, and security has typically been focused on the ballroom and rather than the hotel at large, with little screening for people not entering the dinner itself. In past years, that has created openings for disruptions in the lobby and other public spaces, including protests in which security moved to remove guests who unfurled banners or staged demonstrations.
Event was about to take place
Trump’s attendance at Saturday’s annual dinner in Washington for his first time as president is putting his administration’s often-contentious relationship with the press on full public display.
Trump arrived to an event where the leaders of a nation at war mingled with celebrities, journalists and even a puppet — Triumph the Insult Comic Dog — in a dinner that typically generates debate about whether the relationship between journalists and their sources should include socializing together and putting aside sometimes adversarial relationships.
Trump with CBS reporter and White House Correspondant President Weijia Jiang. In 2020, Trump insulted Jiang by telling her to "ask China" when she asked about coronavirus deaths. He skipped Kaitlin Collins and abruptly ended his presser.
Trump was being watched closely at the event held by the organization of reporters who cover him and his administration. Past presidents who have attended have generally spoken about the importance of free speech and the First Amendment, adding in some light roasts about individual journalists.
The Republican president did not attend during his first term or the first year of his second. He came as a guest in 2011, sitting in the audience as President Barack Obama, a Democrat, made some jokes about the New York real estate developer. Trump also attended as a private citizen in 2015.
Trump entered the banquet hall of the Washington Hilton to the strains of “Hail to the Chief” and greeted prominent journalists on the dais, also pausing to laud White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt with a cheerful pointing of his finger.
Past dinners have also featured comedians who poke at presidents. This year, the group opted to hire mentalist Oz Pearlman as the featured entertainment.
A contentious relationship
Between berating individual reporters, fighting organizations like The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Associated Press in court and restricting press access to the Pentagon, the administration’s animus toward journalists has been a fixture of Trump’s second term.
On the eve of the dinner, nearly 500 retired journalists signed a petition calling on the association “to forcefully demonstrate opposition to President Trump’s efforts to trample freedom of the press.”
Jiang said the organization was fighting for all different forms of the press that have a line in to the American people. “I don’t think people realize how closely we are working with the White House,” she said on C-SPAN before the dinner convened. “The relationship is important. It can be complicated. It can be intense. But it is robust.”
Welcoming guests, Jiang alluded to the contentious relationship in thanking Leavitt “for everything your team does to work with us every day, whether you like it or not.”
Veteran reporter Manu Raju of CNN, as he entered the Washington Hilton for the dinner, said it was not his role to express his opinion on Trump’s relationship with the press. “I’m not an activist,” he said. “My job is not to protest.”
A few dozen protesters stood across the hotel in the runup to the event. One was dressed in a prison uniform, wearing a Hegseth mask and red gloves. Another carried a sign saying, “Journalism is dead.”
The status quo politics of "can't do nothing" or "now is not the time."
On average there are two mass shootings a day now. It never stops.
Uh oh. Better see if the far right preparing to make this shooter a leftist.
I wonder if Charlie Kirk got something to say about it?
Nevermind.
Only in America, how many more mass shootings must we deal with before we finally curb gun violence?
The United States is the most violent country in the world. Israel and Russia follow behind respectfully. Israel, Russia and the United States are the most hated countries in the world.
The United States is downsizing in democracy.
What is wrong with white men, white women and white boys?
It's the guns stupid!
Things to keep in mind when the blame game comes, will the suspect be:
White
Black
Latino
Muslim
Arab
Non White National
Immigrant
A member of the LGBTQ community
A disgruntled employee
A former student
A current student
A gang member
A so called leftist
A person who has conservative views
A person with easy access to firearm
The person with easy access to firearms should be the only answer. Alas, the far right is hoping for this to be a person they can scapegoat as their next de jour of outrage. Anyone can get firearm in the United States. Even, people who are non U.S. citizens are allowed to obtain firearms.
The real issue is not just guns, it's white men, white women tears and white boys. They are losing their goddamn minds. Inspired by loneliness, politics, job loss, social media trends, endless perceptions of others, the lack of opportunities (besides joining the military) and the need to be ahead of everyone else is what drives these fools to commit endless chaos.
If the suspect is white, they will give the shooter a glaring profile. If the suspect is not white, expect the far right to claim its the left or accused a certain nationality, race, religion or sexuality the cause of mass shootings.
White privilege also santizes the white shooters. Already we are getting details of the mass shooters. Glaring profiles of these white mass shooters to paint them as unfortunate circumstances. Ignoring the fact, these terrorists had signs of potential danger but their families thought it was just noise.
That restraining order doesn't mean much to a deranged individual. It's a trigger!
I wish things could have turned out well! But unfortunately, a shooter never abides to a court order!
How can a piece of paper protect a victim when it's not reliant on stopping the perpetrator (from causing harm)?
The real issue is gun violence. Not comedians. Not activists. Not Black men. Not immigrants. Not Muslims. Not transgender Americans. Not video games. Not movies. Not rap music. Not the left.
The confirm image of the shooter.
A man made crisis that can be solved if these incompetent politicians and media agitators stop making excuses for the continued gun violence epidemic. Prayers are just words and speeches. Instead offering words, how about policies?
The United States is downsizing in democracy and freedom.
I just want to say that the Second Amendment is White, period.
A bullet does not care about color. We all bleed red and so many lives are lost to gun violence. Republicans offer no solutions other than "thoughts and prayers", "send them back" with a touch of "lock em up."
Gun violence continues to be the number one threat in the United States.
I dismiss this ridiculous notion that criminals are the problem, not the guns. Firearms are often obtained through legal purchases.
Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem. The problem is lawmakers not willing to stop gun violence.
According to the far right: White shooters are always mentally ill or lone wolves. The far right believes they should receive some sympathy for their crimes. Black shooters are unrepentant thugs and criminals who deserve lengthy time in the iron college or death. Gay and transgender shooters are active groomers who want to be pedophiles on children. Muslim shooters are terrorists who should be surveiled or deported. Hispanic and Asian shooters are illegal immigrants and they should be deported. According to the far right, almost all white [or non-white] mass shooters are registered Democrats [leftist or some progressive activist] because they have liked or done one thing common to the politics of the left. Of course, they often share or post disinformation by using the ridiculous "Sam Hyde" meme or make bogus social media platforms with the shooter's image as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white or associated with conservative causes. The far right says a white person should "protect" themselves from thugs, terrorists or protesters. They believe the use of firearms are "justified" if they are protesting or even instigating a conflict. The far right believes if a shooter is a police officer, an active military member, a veteran or a citizen who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified. If the shooters are teens in urban communities, the far right automatically assume the gunmen are Black. Even if the evidence turns out that the shooter has alignment with conservative causes or Republicans, the far right dismisses it as a hoax or a plot to demonize the MAGA movement.
The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox, Twitter and they force it into national news. They make the case to blame Black Lives Matter, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Democrats, Rev. Al Sharpton and rap music for Black on whatever violence. Republican lawmakers who do not live in urban neighborhoods often troll social media to talk about gun violence or crime in Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee and New York City while not doing a damn thing to stop it. If a white person shoots a Black person, the shooter is given the benefit of doubt. White shooters are given glowing profiles about their perfect lives and how friends noticed something but refused to do something. When it comes to Black shooters, automatic vilification. They don't see mental illness. They see it as gang violence, allegedly fatherless homes, Democratic policies or the need for more firearms.

Let them know that you are tired of private equity firms getting away with destroying small businesses and long established companies. Let them know that you are tired of your taxpayer money going to foreign nations like Israel and Ukraine. You are tired of hearing about "Israel having a right to..." and the bogus claims of being anti-semitic or in support of terrorism because you support the freedom of Palestinians. You are tired of the propaganda being forced on your media platforms.
We have bigger issues at home and our tax dollars should solve the housing crisis, lowering food prices, fixing roads, bridges, helping reinvest in struggling urban and rural communities. We have hospitals closing, big box retailers leaving communities and television programs dying. There are bigger issues in the country than Israel. You want an immediate ceasefire, a weapons embargo, sanctions and accountability for war crimes done by Israel. You want no more domestic or foreign influence in American elections. You also want to make sure future presidents and lawmakers avoid influence from lobbyists and special interest groups.
THERE IS NO GOD!
GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!
FUCK YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!
LET ME BE CLEAR, PRAYERS DO NOT STOP FUCKING BULLETS!
THIS IS A MAN-MADE ISSUE! WHY IS IT SO HARD TO STOP A MAN-MADE ISSUE LIKE GUN VIOLENCE?
STOP SAYING YOU'RE PRAYING TO PEOPLE AFFECTED BY GUN VIOLENCE. IT IS FUCKING PLATITUDES. DO SOMETHING ABOUT FUCKING GUN VIOLENCE YOU WORTHLESS LAWMAKERS. PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, THE CHOICE TO CONTINUE THE STATUS QUO WILL KEEP YOU AND OTHERS AT RISK OF VIOLENCE. MAKE A CHOICE TO STOP THE CHAOS AND ACT LIKE A FUCKING 79 YEAR OLD MAN. DO SOMETHING TO HELP THE COUNTRY.
