Biden is running in 2024 but the noise wants someone else.
A lot is being said about the national polls and the 2024 U.S. elections and the mood of the American voters. I can truly say that Washed Up 45 will carry the white men vote and white woman vote. He is projected to get 65% of white men and 55% of white women.
Who President Joe Biden needs to win? ----- Black voters.
Black men will give Washed Up 45 at least 25% of the vote while Black women will give the former president only 6%.
Again, polls don't matter when you literally see American democracy on the verge of collapse.
Republicans have no real solutions to the country's problems. They have pivoted back to conspiracy theories, culture wars and selective memory.
No wonder NBC News is touting a bullshit poll about the president's pending announcement to seek a second term.
According to a new poll out Sunday from NBC News, 70 percent of Americans do not want Biden to run for a second term, compared to only 26 percent who do. Among those who don’t want the 80-year-old president to pursue a second term, 69 percent cite age as a reason why, with 48 percent calling it a “major” reason.
Worse yet for Biden, the new survey shows him facing a steep uphill climb in a general election. The NBC poll shows 41 percent of Americans plan to vote for Biden in 2024, compared to 47 percent who say they will back the Republican nominee.
If there is a silver lining to the dismal numbers for Biden, it’s that he is still more popular than his most likely 2024 opponent. In all, 38 percent have a positive view of Joe Biden, compared to 48 percent who have a negative view. And while those numbers might ordinarily spell doom for an incumbent seeking a second term, they are significantly better than those of Washed Up 45 — about whom just 34 percent of Americans hold a positive view, compared to 53 percent who have a negative view.
Biden should not take anything for granted. The Republicans are trying to muddy the waters by encouraging Republicans to vote in the Democratic primary for conspiracy theorist and far right agitator Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
The black sheep of the Kennedy family announced he will run and the white extremists are promoting him.
Biden stated that he will lower the temperature in Washington. It is nearly impossible with Republicans vowing to oppose everything he supports.
The junk food media can't get enough of the former president. About 85% of cable news programming involve something that moron done. Mind you, I have talked about the former president which means he is getting shameless promotion.
This election will be about democracy. We are at the verge of a civil war.
Washed Up 45 would give a half bitten slice of pizza to his goofy ass supporters.
Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) endorses Washed Up 45 for his 2024 bid for president. While in Fort Meyers, the former president made a stop at a pizzeria and offered his supporters a slice of a pizza he bitten off.
"Does anyone want a piece that I’ve eaten?" he said, adding that the slice is "good" as he placed the half-eaten slice back into the box to grab another one.
Washed Up 45 at the cash register of the local pizzeria, telling a crowd around him, "Enjoy the pizza, enjoy the pizza!"
He stopped by Downtown House of Pizza for a quick slice before leaving.
The former president is trying to starve off a potential challenge from Florida governor Ron DeSantis. The two are feuding as the 2024 Republican Party nomination race kicks off with Asa Hutchison and Larry Elder officially announcing they're forming presidential campaigns.

Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) has also expressed interests.
In most polls, many Republicans see Washed Up 45 as their choice.
Florida, a state where Republicans see as a viable place to spread their hate.
The former president spoke at the Lee County Republicans conference.
About 1/3 of U.S. House Republican members endorsed the former president. The ones who did not endorse him are likely going to face a primary challenge.
Donalds is one of five Black Republicans in Congress. He represents the 19th Congressional District of Florida. He is the most high profile member of the House. Donalds have no legislative accomplishments since joining Congress in 2021. He made the news earlier this year when Republicans endorsed him for House Speaker.
Donalds does have a somewhat friendly relationship with Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY).
Bowman is lawmaker with no legislative accomplishments as well. He and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) were outside their district to witness the Manhattan district attorney's indictment of Washed Up 45.
The New Mexico state authorities have dropped the involuntary manslaughter charges against a high profile media personality. The state has considered other charges though.
But the most serious charges would have put him in the iron college for 25 years.
I guess the special prosecutor appearing on Fox kind of destroyed the case against actor Alec Baldwin.
Andrea Reeb's appearance on Sean "Softball" Hannity's shitshow may have tarnished the case. Her appearance was a gift to Baldwin's attorneys who said the charges were a political hit job. Baldwin is remorseful and was willing to settle with Halyna Hutchins' family.
Baldwin has lost endorsement deals had two shows canceled and his podcast is ending soon. He has been low key on social media. Even a former ally is working on behalf of Hutchins' family to sue him.
Some "new facts were revealed that demand further investigation and forensic analysis cannot be completed before" a schedule preliminary hearing on May 3," according to a filing by special prosecutors Jason Lewis and Mari Morrissey.
The brief filing did not state what "new facts" prompted the case to be pulled.
Halyna Hutchins.
Prosecutors had the case dismissed "without prejudice," meaning any new evidence could prompt them to re-file charges.
Even if the Baldwin is never held accountable in a criminal trial, attorney Gloria Allred, representing loved ones of Hutchins, said their civil complaint against the actor will continue.
"Despite the prosecutor’s decision to dismiss the criminal charge against Alec Baldwin without prejudice, the victims of Alec Baldwin that we represent remain hopeful," Allred said in a statement on Friday. "Mr. Baldwin has tried to dismiss our civil case against him, and he has failed."
Allred added: "He has even sunk so low as to attack Halyna Hutchins’ grieving mother, father, and sister for seeking to make him accountable for his part in the death of Halyna Hutchins."
While Baldwin appears to be off the hook for criminal charges, his former co-defendant Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, the "Rust" set's armorer, is still being prosecuted. She's accused of involuntary manslaughter and her preliminary hearing was set Friday for Aug. 9.
Meanwhile, filming of "Rust" continued Friday in Montana.
"Though bittersweet, I am grateful that a brilliant and dedicated new production team is joining former cast and crew to complete what Halyna and I started," director Joel Souza, who was wounded in the 2021 shooting, said in a statement issued by "Rust" producers.
"My every effort on this film will be devoted to honoring Halyna’s legacy and making her proud."
Producers have said they are barring any working weapons and ammunition on the set.
The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Emotional Alec Baldwin.
Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence, monkeypox and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms.
I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.
When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3.
Remember #3 means: The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.
I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.
I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.
President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However one Democrat and one independent who caucuses with the Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back.
Conservatives are outraged that Alec Baldwin walks.
The National Rifle Association is always pushing against it. They will not relinquish from the narrative that guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street. It makes no sense.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.
This is what racist Brits and Americans think of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan.
Trigger warning: Offensive caricature of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. I do not endorse or condone the imagery. I am using this image for commentary. I am supportive of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan, Vice President Kamala Harris, former president Barack Obama and wife Michelle and people of color.
The American and British junk food media can't stop basing their lives off of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are constantly in the mouths of some of Britain's most controversial media agitators.
The junk food media in the United Kingdom are preparing for King Charles III's coronation. The coronation is expected to cost taxpayers millions.
As he prepares for his royal swearing in, it is confirmed that the prince will attend the event but the duchess will stay in the U.S. with her son Archie and daughter Lilibit. The duchess will plan for their son's birthday which is on the day of the coronation.
But regardless of what decision was made, the British tabloids had criticized her.
What makes me so mad about the American and British press?
It is the constant disrespect towards Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan.
For one thing, I will not call her Meghan Markle. That is disrespectful towards her given title. Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex is how I respond to her.
I also refuse to do this compare and contrast noise when it comes to Meghan and Princess Catherine. I don't call her Kate Middleton or Kate. Her title is Princess of Wales.
A lot has been said of the Prince and Princess of Wales. The bitterness may have started from negative and possibly racist conversations between Prince William and Meghan.
Also there's allegations from Princess Anne criticizing the skin color of their children.
The British junk food media hires body language experts to discuss noise about divorce and how their marriage is destroying Britain. It is just constant noise from these idiots who based their sad lives off of the lives of Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan.
Prince Harry is very protective of Meghan.
The Telegraph released a private letter written by the duchess informing the king (then prince) of the allegations of racism. He apparently dismissed it. He thought of it as a simple misunderstanding.
King Charles III is not a popular royal. He waited for over 70 years to at least get the opportunity to be called "Your Highness." His affairs on Princess Diana, the silence on racism, the refusal to apologize for slavery and the tone deaf spending while Brits are suffering will be on his watch.
His reign will not be long. Give it about 10 years. By that time, in at least six years Brits will vote on ending the monarchy.
So there you have it.
It is probably why nations with non-white majorities under the crown are trying to separate and become independent. Jamaica, Grenada, Antigua and Barbuda, Belize,
The Bahamas, St. Kitts and Nevis and even Australia are looking towards removing royal sovereignty.
There are 14 countries outside of the United Kingdom where the King is head of state: Antigua and Barbuda, Australia, the Bahamas, Belize, Canada, Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Tuvalu. In these countries, known as Commonwealth realms, the queen appoints a representative—such as a governor general—recommended by the popularly elected leader, such as the prime minister or president.
Scotland and Northern Ireland are also considering removal. Scotland wants to become an independent country and not a English country. Northern Ireland wants to be reunified with the Republic of Ireland.
Meghan made the right decision to not attend the coronation. It stares off the noise the junk food media would have created based off one minor issue.
These people decide the fate of our country. Six of them are raging lunatics.
Okay, the U.S. Supreme Court kept a decision from a district judge in Washington (state) to keep the medical drug mifepristone available to women for now. It bats down a Washed Up 45 judge who far right extremists seek decision on.
It was a 7-2 decision with all three of Washed Up 45's Supreme Court justices siding with Chief Justice John Roberts and the three ladies of the progressive wing.
Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Kentaji Brown Jackson, Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh as well as Chief Justice John Roberts sided with the U.S. Justice Department and Health amd Human Services.
Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito were the two who sided with the Texas federal judge who ordered an all out stop of mifepristone.
On Friday, the court preserved women’s access to a drug used in the most common method of abortion, rejecting lower-court restrictions while a lawsuit continues.
The justices granted emergency requests from the Biden administration and New York-based Danco Laboratories, maker of the drug mifepristone. They are appealing a lower court ruling that would roll back Food and Drug Administration approval of mifepristone.
The drug has been approved for use in the U.S. since 2000 and more than 5 million people have used it. Mifepristone is used in combination with a second drug, misoprostol, in more than half of all abortions in the U.S.
The court’s action Friday almost certainly will leave access to mifepristone unchanged at least into next year, as appeals play out, including a potential appeal to the high court. The next stop for the case is at the New Orleans-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit, which has set arguments in the case for May 17.
President Joe Biden praised the high court for keeping mifepristone available while the court fight continues.
“The stakes could not be higher for women across America. I will continue to fight politically-driven attacks on women’s health. But let’s be clear — the American people must continue to use their vote as their voice, and elect a Congress who will pass a law restoring the protections of Roe v. Wade,” Biden said in a statement.
Mifepristone will be available on the shelves.
Alliance Defending Freedom, representing abortion opponents challenging the FDA’s approval of mifepristone, downplayed the court’s action.
“As is common practice, the Supreme Court has decided to maintain the status quo that existed prior to our lawsuit while our challenge to the FDA’s illegal approval of chemical abortion drugs and its removal of critical safeguards for those drugs moves forward,” ADF lawyer Erik Baptist said in a statement.
The justices weighed arguments that allowing restrictions contained in lower-court rulings to take effect would severely disrupt the availability of mifepristone.
The Supreme Court had initially said it would decide by Wednesday whether the restrictions could take effect while the case continues. A one-sentence order signed by Alito on Wednesday gave the justices two additional days, without explanation.
The challenge to mifepristone is the first abortion controversy to reach the nation’s highest court since its conservative majority overturned Roe v. Wade 10 months ago and allowed more than a dozen states to effectively ban abortion outright.
In his majority opinion last June, Alito said one reason for overturning Roe was to remove federal courts from the abortion fight. “It is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives,” he wrote.
But even with their court victory, abortion opponents returned to federal court with a new target: medication abortions, which make up more than half of all abortions in the United States.
Women seeking to end their pregnancies in the first 10 weeks without more invasive surgical abortion can take mifepristone, along with misoprostol. The FDA has eased the terms of mifepristone’s use over the years, including allowing it to be sent through the mail in states that allow access.
The abortion opponents filed suit in Texas in November, asserting that the FDA’s original approval of mifepristone 23 years ago and subsequent changes were flawed.
They won a ruling on April 7 by U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, an appointee of former Washed Up 45 revoking FDA approval of mifepristone. The judge gave the Biden administration and Danco Laboratories a week to appeal and seek to keep his ruling on hold.
Responding to a quick appeal, two more Washed Up 45 appointees on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the FDA’s original approval would stand for now. But Judges Andrew Oldham and Kurt Engelhardt said most of the rest of Kacsmaryk’s ruling could take effect while the case winds through federal courts.
Their ruling would have effectively nullified changes made by the FDA starting in 2016, including extending from seven to 10 weeks of pregnancy when mifepristone can be safely used. The court also would have halted sending the drug in the mail or dispensing it as a generic, and patients who seek it would have had to make three in-person visits with a doctor. Women also might have been required to take a higher dosage of the drug than the FDA says is necessary.
Douchebag federal judge's decision overturned.
The administration and Danco have said that chaos would ensue if those restrictions were to take effect while the case proceeds. Potentially adding to the confusion, a federal judge in Washington has ordered the FDA to preserve access to mifepristone under the current rules in 17 Democratic-led states and the District of Columbia that filed a separate lawsuit.
The Biden administration has said the rulings conflict and create an untenable situation for the FDA.
Alito questioned the argument that chaos would result, saying the administration “has not dispelled doubts that it would even obey an unfavorable order in these cases.”
And a new legal wrinkle threatened even more complications. GenBioPro, which makes the generic version of mifepristone, filed a lawsuit Wednesday to preemptively block the FDA from removing its drug from the market, in the event that the Supreme Court doesn’t intervene.
The Supreme Court was only being asked to block the lower-court rulings through the end of the legal case.
The appeals court has sped up its review, but there is no timetable for a ruling.
Any appeal to the Supreme Court would follow within three months of a ruling, but with no deadline for the justices to decide whether to review the case.
Kim Potter, the former Brooklyn Center Police officer who shot Daunte Wright after she thought she reached for a Taser is out of the iron college after spending nearly 16 months of the two year sentence. A routine traffic stop led to a confrontation and a firearm being fired into Daunte and a car crash.
A cop crying trying to get her story right. A man lying in a pool of blood and no aid rendered. Reckless on the cop and the city of Brooklyn Center.
Potter got off a charge that many others would have served at least 10 years or longer.
The city of Brooklyn Center, Minneapolis had to pay nearly $4 million to Daunte's family.
He leaves behind a four year old son. Katie Wright, Daunte's mother is vowing to make sure Potter never gets a job as a cop ever again. She also wants the dirty ex-cop to face federal charges which is still being discussed.
Alayna Albrecht-Payton, the passenger and girlfriend of Daunte is also suing Potter.
Potter shot Wright, a 20-year-old Black motorist, during a traffic stop on April 11, 2021. She said she meant to use her Taser, not her gun, but shot him once in the chest. She was found guilty of first-degree and second-degree manslaughter on Dec. 23, after roughly four days of jury deliberation.
During her trial, the prosecution argued Wright's death was caused by Potter's recklessness, and said Potter put her police partners in danger by shooting into a vehicle. The defense insisted that Wright caused a chaotic struggle that led to his own death.
White tears spared ex-cop a 10 year bid for killing Daunte Wright.
The death of another Black man at the hands of a white officer reignited the call for police accountability and racial justice in Minnesota and across the country at a time when, just miles away, Derek Chauvin was on trial for the murder of George Floyd.
In the days following Wright's death, dozens were arrested as protesters clashed with police in Brooklyn Center, and the city passed a sweeping public safety resolution, though parts of the proposal have yet to be implemented.
By Minnesota law, Potter was sentenced only on the higher charge of first-degree manslaughter. The maximum charge is 15 years, but for someone with no criminal history like Potter, guidelines range from between six and eight-and-a-half years.
Prosecutors initially outlined aggravating factors in Blakely filings, which would have allowed Potter to serve a higher sentence, but said in court Friday that the presumptive sentence would be appropriate.
After paying $790 billion to Dominion Voting Systems, Fox is looking to trim its resources.
It appears the far right troll Dan Bongino will no longer have place at Fox. He was fired out the cannon. Oh by the way, Bongino was dancing on the unceremonious firing of Tiffany Cross when she was let go.
I am still fuming at MSNBC for letting her go.
Bongino could not reach a deal with Fox on his contract.
I’ve failed a lot. A LOT! But I thank God for each failure because I used them as learning opportunities. And after seeing book after book about how wonderful people are, I decided to write a book about my failures, & it’s now available https://t.co/02SjZn2j9u…
“It’s not some big conspiracy,” Bongino said on his podcast. “There’s no acrimony. This wasn’t like some WWE brawl that happened. We just couldn’t come to terms on an extension.”
Bongino hosted the Saturday night show “Unfiltered” and said that while he was given the chance to do a last show this weekend, he decided against it.
The blunt-talking former New York police officer began doing commentary on Fox a decade ago, joining as a contributor in 2019 and beginning his Saturday night show in 2021.
His “Canceled in the USA” program on Fox Nation will also end, and the streaming service will no longer air his daily radio show. Bongino may still appear as a guest on Fox shows, the network said.
“We thank Dan for his contributions and wish him success in his future endeavors,” Fox said in a statement Thursday.
Bongino was on OANN, NRA TV, Newsmax, America's Real Voice and Fox. It has been nothing but disasters. He ran for office multiple times and never won. He was blocked in YouTube and banned on Twitter (before Musk took over).
All he is best known for is his brief time as former president Barack Obama's inner Secret Service agent. He probably was let go during the trip to Colombia. You know the incident where a handful of agents partied with hookers.
Bongino does not like being called out for his bullshit. He is known to block people on social media whenever he gets upset.
Dan Bongino, you are a washed up celebrity and a total asshole.
Three terrorists were nabbed in the Dedeville mass shooting.
Two teens and a two men are being held in custody after they committed one of the most deadliest mass shootings in Alabama history. The 16 year old and 17 year old are likely going to charged as adults and they could face LIFE in the iron college. Had they been 18 or older, they were eligible for the DEATH card. Two 20 year old men will be eligible for LIFE or DEATH.
The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
The brothers and the man were arrested after a Saturday mass shooting at a Dedeville Music Hall. it was a Sweet 16 party that became a large fight and thus firearms were drawn and six people were killed. Dozens of others were injured by gunfire.
The terrorists both attended Booker T. Washington Magnet High School. One was a player on the football team. The other did attend the school, but was expelled prior to the shootings.
On Wednesday afternoon, Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) announced that a third suspect has been arrested. The third terrorist has been identified of Auburn. The men were arrested and formally charged with four counts of reckless murder.
All four suspects are being held without bond n the Tallapoosa County Jail pending bond hearings. Prosecutors will ask all be held without bond.
Under Alabama law, the crime of reckless murder is committed when a person recklessly engages in conduct which creates a grave risk of death to a person other than himself or herself and causes the death of another person.
Gov. Kay Ivey, President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) and the U.S. Representatives from Alabama were notified of this mass shooting. They will do the usual "thoughts and prayers" and "our hearts goes out to" as well as the Republicans saying that "now it's not the time to talk" bullshit.
These people 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.
Two more terrorists caught.
Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem.
THE NICE GUY IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PERSON WITH A FIREARM. THOSE WHO ARE SPURN BY RELATIONSHIPS, THE WORKPLACE, SOCIETY IN GENERAL WILL SEEK REVENGE BY TAKING OUT LIVES. THEY WANT TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS OF MASSACRING THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEING. THE JUNK FOOD MEDIA AND POLITICIANS ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE BY AMPING UP POLARIZING RHETORIC.
An active shooter doesn't care about the politics, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, your finances, your family, your plans that day, your successes, your failures, and most importantly, your life.
The shooter is motivated within seconds to take out as many people as he/she can.
What to do to protect your life.
1. Run - If you hear sounds like firecrackers, popping sounds or suspicious activities around a large gathering (i.e. malls, stores, clubs, public gatherings), if you can flee, run away from the shooter. Do not run in a straight path of the sight. Move around and zig-zag if possible to keep yourself out the line of fire. It's best to not film a shooter commiting the act. If you are willing to risk your life for a viral video, more power to you but its best to stay out of the line of fire by running away.
2. Hide - If you are involved in an active shooting, you must barricade yourself in a room and keep doors locked, lights off, phones on silent. Do not go into restrooms, lockers and kitchens. Those are most likely places where shooters often go. If you can barricade a room to prevent a shooter from getting in, it eliminate the opportunity for the shooter to get through. Make sure you keep your voice low when you're involved in mass shooting. Call 9-1-1 if you can.
3. Fight - If you are willing to risk your life or willing to film the incident, you have no choice but to fight. Make sure you grab something that is powerful enough to disarm a shooter. Do not confront a shooter in the midst of sight. Make yourself not visible if you're trying to fight. Do not think being a "good guy with a gun" is going to stop a bad guy. The cops don't see good guys trying to stop bad guys. They see active shooters and they will shoot anyone who is armed regardless of the matter. If you're ready to fight, be prepared to die. It's best to not be easily seen if you're trying to stop a shooter. If you're a conceal carry and attempt to disarm an active shooter, you are willing to sacrifice your life to save lives. You are willing to go hero, you could die a hero or an idiot.
According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanics and Asians shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left. Of course, they often share disinformation by using the "Sam Hyde" meme as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white. They say a white person should "protect" from protesters and use of firearms are justified. They say if a shooter is active military or a veteran who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified.
The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox and they force it into national news. 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. The far right and Republicans exploit gun violence in the Black community for culture wars and racism.
Republicans solutions are more guns, blame others for America's social ills and defect from accepting reality.
“There is a tremendous amount of work to do. We’re going to be careful with everything we say and everything we do. We’re going to stay focused on the victims and their families,” said Sgt. Jeremy Burkett of the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency on Wednesday.
The dance studio is closed indefinitely.
Burkett has not disclosed where any of the arrests were made. He also would not say how many guns were fired or how many shots were fired.
Killed in the shooting were Philstavious Dowdell, 18, Shaunkivia Nicole “Keke” Smith, 17, Marsiah Emmanuel “Siah” Collins, 19, and Corbin Dahmontrey Holston, 23.
Another 32 people were injured, some of them critically, when gunfire erupted at approximately 10:34 p.m. Saturday at Mahogany’s Masterpiece dance studio on North Broadnax Street in downtown Dadeville, one block from the courthouse.
The party was for Dowdell’s sister, Alexis Dowdell, who said her brother died protecting her.
Dowdell said she dove to the floor near the DJ as the dozens of revelers ran. She “didn’t know where to run,” in part because shots seemed to come from multiple directions.
When there was a break in gunfire, she bolted for the front door. But someone pushed her. It was her brother, trying to protect her.
The investigation is ongoing by multiple law enforcement agencies.
District Attorney Mike Segrest said the suspects will have an Aniah’s Law bond hearing within 72 hours, and then a preliminary hearing in the coming weeks. The case could then go to a grand jury.
You're not safe in the school, the concert, the bank, the hospital, the church, the casino, the bus station, the subway, the light rail train, the buses, the malls, the local big box store, the political rally, the protest rally, ringing a doorbell, turning around in a driveway, apologizing for accidently (or purposely) trespassing, the women's center for reproductive surgeries, the mosque, the synagogue, the state buildings, the workplace, the gas station, the family picnic, the food truck rally, the funerals, the birthday parties, the graduations, the wedding, the televised events, the sporting events and many more events that have some terrorist with a firearm. Domestic violence, suicide, racism, culture war inspired, politically motivated and international operatives inspired are types of gun violence.
With Republicans in charge of the House of Representatives, the only thing they'll offer to every mass shooting is "thoughts and prayers", "our hearts going out to", "the good guy with a gun", and their most common phrase "now it's not the time to politicize these tragedies."
Another tragedy in American.
Use the hashtag #ignorethenoise whenever you deal with folks who embrace this.
The ban of semiautomatic rifles and bump stock assortments has always been a a problem.
Republicans refuse to support the ban of these type of weapons.
Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence, monkeypox and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms.
I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.
When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3.
Remember #3 means: The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.
Alexis Dowell loses brother to gun violence.
I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.
I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.
President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However one Democrat and one independent who caucuses with the Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back.
The National Rifle Association is always pushing against it. They will not relinquish from the narrative that guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street. It makes no sense.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.
A teen is shot after she encountered a man who had a road rage after she ended up grabbing the door of his vehicle. The teen thought the man was in her car. The man exited his car and fired on two of the teens.
The Texas authorities are quick to arrest this shooter.
Days after Ralph Yarl was shot after ringing a doorbell in Kansas City. Days after Kaylin Gillis was murdered after turning into the wrong driveway in rural New York.
Will Gov. Greg Abbott pardon this guy?
The teen was seriously injured but will survive.
Payton Washington, 18, was shot in the leg and the back in the gunfire that erupted around 12:15 a.m. Tuesday in an H-E-B parking lot in Elgin, her father, Kelan Washington, said.
Payton Washington, a cheerleader at Woodlands Elite Cheer Co., was heading home from practice with three friends when they were shot at, allegedly by a 25-year-old suspect, who has since been arrested.
Kelan Washington said one girl was grazed by a bullet and treated and released at the scene, but Payton suffered more serious injuries. She was transported via helicopter to a hospital in critical condition, Elgin police said.
Payton’s father said doctors removed her spleen and she’s now stable in the ICU at Dell Seton Medical Center at The University of Texas in Austin.
“Payton’s accomplished everything she has with only one lung [from] when she was born. She’s as tough as they come,” he said.
The shooting unfolded as four cheerleaders with Woodlands Elite Cheer Co. stopped at an H-E-B parking lot, where some of the members had parked their cars, on their commute home from practice, Lynn Shearer, owner of Woodland’s Elite Cheer Co., told NBC affiliate KXAN of Austin.
Kelan Washington said the H-E-B was a "designated carpool site." He said Payton had been going to Woodlands Elite in Houston for almost 10 years and was very familiar with the commute from Houston to her home in Round Rock, about 170 miles away.
At the H-E-B, one of the girls accidentally tried to get into the wrong car, Shearer said.
That’s when, she said, a “guy got out and they saw that he had a gun. And so they tried to speed off, and he shot his gun, like five times or so into the car.”
Payton's father verified Shearer's account about the mistaken car.
“He raised his hands and then brandished his weapon and then just started shooting at the girls,” Kelan Washington said, noting the shooter didn't say anything before firing.
He expressed shock that the shooter resorted to opening fire.
"You watched her walk up to your door on accident — it's a girl in a cheer outfit," he said.
Elgin police said in a statement, "Information suggests that an altercation occurred in the parking lot of HEB, and multiple shots were fired into a vehicle." Two of the girls in the car were struck by gunfire.
A suspect, Pedro Tello Rodriguez Jr., 25, was taken into custody and charged with deadly conduct. The investigation is ongoing, police said.
Kelan Washington said the other girls are doing “fine” in the wake of the shooting and are supporting his daughter.
“They’re family. Those girls are Payton’s sisters basically in spirit and in team camaraderie,” he said. “Of course they’re very concerned about their sister, they’re very concerned about their leader. Payton was the leader of this cheer squad in Houston.”
The suspect faces reckless endangerment, improper discharge of a firearm and attempted murder. These charges could land the suspect in the iron college for LIFE.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Young woman was murdered after her friends went into the wrong driveway.
What happened to Kaylin Gillis?
A young woman is shot and killed by a man after a mistaken driveway encounter. The New York authorities have arrested this man and are holding him on involuntary manslaughter. This incident comes days after Ralph Yarl was shot in the head and arm after ringing the doorbell of the wrong house. Days after Payton Washington was shot after she grabbed on a car door of a motorist.
Kaylin Gillis was shot and killed in Hebron, New York after the car she was in turned onto the wrong driveway. 65-year-old Kevin D. Monahan was arrested after a standoff and was taken into custody at the Washington County Correctional Facility in Fort Edward, where he was charged with second-degree murder. He faces 25 years to LIFE in the iron college.
She was 20 years old.
Gillis and her friends were driving in the rural town of Hebron, New York looking for a friend's house in the evening. The vehicle was being driven by her boyfriend, and was traveling with another vehicle that had also pulled into the same driveway. After turning into the wrong driveway, the group began to back the vehicle out of the driveway. The homeowner, Kevin D. Monahan, exited his home and fired two shots at the vehicle. The group then drove towards the neighboring town of Salem, New York and called emergency services, as there was limited cellphone reception where the shooting took place.
Blake Walsh, 19, of Cambridge, New York, said exclusively Tuesday night in a phone call that he and three passengers — two friends and his girlfriend, Kaylin Gillis, 20 — had been looking for the party when two rounds were fired in their direction.
Walsh, who was driving a Ford Explorer, said Gillis was fatally shot as they left a driveway in Hebron, about 50 miles north of Albany.
Walsh said the four friends were traveling with another vehicle that also pulled into the wrong driveway. The group realized they were at the wrong home and were leaving.
“We thought we were at the right address,” Walsh said. “We didn’t have any cell service to figure it out. As soon as we figured it out that we were at the wrong location, we started to leave, and that’s when everything happened.”
Walsh said what occurred next was a blur.
“My friend said, ‘They’re shooting — go!’ I tried to step on the gas as fast as I could, and that’s when the fatal shot came through,” Walsh said.
“I want to believe it was instant. I’m hoping it was. I’m praying it was,” he said through tears.
Authorities said the suspect fired twice after the group mistakenly turned into the driveway of his home. Monahan is alleged to have fired as the group was leaving, Washington County Sheriff Jeffrey Murphy told reporters Monday.
Murphy said the group “clearly” posed no threat.
One of the bullets struck Gillis, who was pronounced dead several miles away after the group called 911, authorities said. Walsh said she was struck in the neck. They had to drive 5 miles because of the lack of cell service, he said.
“It did not feel like that," Walsh said. "It felt like 30 seconds. The adrenaline was rushing so bad.”
Monahan was arraigned Sunday on charges of second-degree murder and pleaded not guilty, said his lawyer, Kurt Mausert.
Mausert said Monahan did not intend to hurt anyone when he fired.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.
Breach of the White House grounds are taken seriously. A small child slipped through and the Secret Service caught him. His parents won't face charges.
President Joe Biden was at The White House and the U.S. Secret Service did not comment on the intruder. However, there will be no charges for this intruder. The intruder was a toddler who managed to slip through the narrow fencing surrounding The White House.
U.S. Secret Service Uniformed Division officers, who are responsible for security at the White House, walked across the North Lawn to retrieve the tot and reunite him with his parents on Pennsylvania Avenue. Access to the complex was briefly restricted while officers conducted the reunification. Officers briefly questioned the parents before allowing them to continue on their way.
It may be the first successful intrusion onto the complex since the White House fence was doubled in height to roughly 13 feet (3.96-meters) in recent years after a series of security breaches. While taller, the new fence has an additional inch of space between pickets, for a total of 5½ inches (12.7 centimeters) between posts.
Older children have sometimes become stuck in the iconic barrier, which has also been the scene of demonstrations, with protesters chaining themselves to the fence.
The Secret Service did not immediately have comment on the incident.
All breaches are taken seriously. The Secret Service does not allow anything to penetrate the bubble. They swore an oath to protect the President, Vice President, former presidents, presidential candidates and American currencies with their lives.
The last known assassination attempt was Ronald Reagan. He was shot early in his first term by a crazed man obsessed with Jodie Foster. The man was released after spending years in a federal medical hospital.
There have been numerous breaches at the White House. One of the most recent ones that grabbed news attention was Washed Up 45 being quickly escorted out during a COVID briefing. An intruder managed to get on the grounds and was shot.
The feds are watching Ali Alexander, the founding member of the Stop The Steal Rally which led to the mob of Washed Up 45 supporters rioting at the U.S. Capitol. Alexander is caught up in a sex scandal.
It also intensifies a feud with the insufferable lawmaker from Georgia. Laura Loomer, Nick Fuentes and Alexander are threatening to expose Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA).
Greene has called for a federal investigation into Alexander and Fuentes.
Well it is the allegations of grooming from members of the far right.
Alexander is accused of enticing boys to send him pictures of them doing sexual acts.
Alexander issued a non apology claiming that it was never intentional. He said he has fought his "same sex attractions" and referred the actions to being careless.
“While my audience is familiar with me battling [same-sex attraction], others aren’t as familiar. I apologize for any inappropriate messages sent over the years,” Alexander wrote. “Forgive me. While having repented before God and confess at Church, I want my supporters and those involved to hear my apology today. When I’ve flirted or others have flirted with me, I’ve flexed my credentials or dropped corny pick up lines. Other times, I’ve been careless and should’ve qualified those coming up to me’s [sic] identities during flirtatious banter at the start.”
He continued, “Nothing unlawful has occurred. Seeing false claims alongside real messages is a deceptive technique. Some have retracted and other individuals say were deceptively edited which is why I waited. All of this is designed by a Literal Predator [editor’s note: Alexander’s capitalization] to take advantage of admitted sins and hurt my allies.”
Milo Yiannopoulos returns. He goes after Ali Alexander and Laura Loomer, two former allies to his extremist movement.
It also marks a feud between Alexander and Milo Yiannopoulos, a British far right extremist who allied with Alexander during the early years of Washed Up 45's 2016 campaign. Yiannopoulos was forced out of Ye's 2024 presidential campaign. He along with Laura Loomer have vowed to expose the alt-right influencers and those who follow them.
The Daily Beast has gotten screenshots and text messages from a far right figure who got involved in politics at an early age. He befriended Alexander. The far right extremist promised he would get connected with prominent extremists like Yiannopoulos, Laura Loomer, Jacob Wohl, Cassandra Fairbanks-MacDonald and Nick Fuentes.
The extremist was 15 at the time and was basking in the glow of "famous" celebrities.
When he turned 17, that's when Alexander turned to his lust for young bodies.
He started promising alcohol, money and get togethers at America First events. He would ask the far right extremists to make his rocket shoot off.
The non apology doesn't refer to any specific claims outlined in the Daily Beast's reporting.
This is disgusting textbook predation of underage boys. And Nick Fuentes was in on it. #NickKnew
“In exchange for recanting his accusation, [Nick] Fuentes and [Ali] Alexander offered to get him a job in politics.”@FBI should investigate. https://t.co/prvdViu2iZ
This is Marjorie Taylor Greene and her bestie Ali Alexander. These two right wing MAGA loons want to tell you how to live your life. MTG is getting divorced for multiple accusations of infidelity. Ali Alexander is apologizing for sending nude photos to young men. Some as young… pic.twitter.com/Us8ihbWe5A
Publisher of right-wing National File tells Roger Stone that Marge Greene is a fraud: “I don’t know where you guys are on Marjorie. I’m obviously off the Marjorie train.”
Roger: “Marjorie Taylor-Greene? I guess I would call myself very disappointed.” pic.twitter.com/wwPtYR0KOc
Greene posted on Twitter to condemn Alexander, also claiming that Fuentes was "in on it", and calling for an FBI investigation. Alexander subsequently laid blame for the accusations on Representative Greene, claiming she had paid Yiannopoulos to make allegations against him in an attempt to intimidate him out of reporting evidence she had committed a crime.
