I will be surprised if they address it in anything but the most hands-off, distant references. “We heard something about the story, really tragic, we hate to see it.”
Even acknowledging it at all is a political minefield. The good news (for them) is they don’t have to! The vast majority of conservatives in this country, even the “tame” ones who are just scared of different people but have no political passion, they’re getting a deeply cultivated perspective of the world, one that mentions this murder as a strange side-incident that nobody is really talking about, a feed that shows them hundreds of thousands of people cheering at Trump’s parade, of sparse turnouts and cringe leftists at the “no kings” rallies that a few antifa agents organized, of the entire city of LA burning and the tariff’s crushing the economic stability of every other country but the USA, and waves of migrant “criminals” crying in anguish as they are being deported by Daddy Trump every day.
We don’t see how solid and happy the right is because we also have our own algorithmic bubbles that feed us false hope and dopamine hits of manufactured successes in the face of digital tyranny.
There was an initial one by his staff that was typical political platitudes condemning violence. Then as soon as Trump opened his mouth, he blamed Walz and showed zero empathy.
The guy apparently had some no kings fliers so they’re sticking to that and saying he was a “Marxist that was mad the Democrats aren’t voting the way he wants”
…so… Democrats are simultaneously Marxist leftist all the time, and not Marxists so this guy needs to kill them… Right…
I thought it was obvious he was planning bring those as a “disguise” to shoot up a protest next. Then try to find an abortion clinic open on the weekend…
I think it’s possible that the flyers were not planted. I don’t really know why it never crosses anyone’s mind that maybe he just stole a bunch of these flyers because he wanted to limit people‘s awareness of the protest.
Has the white house made any statements about the murder yet?
Trump condemns Vance Boelters Incomplete Hit List
That’s the onion though.
“Tots and pears”

This is all very bad.
Boy do we have different bubbles…

That it’s Walz’s fault
It’s so fucking infuriating…

From what I can tell, the ‘No kings’ flyers were posted by one Twitter account that regularly posts unverified news.
I read an AP article that mentioned them so I really hope they aren’t relying on some douchebag on Twitter for their info too :/
Bro look at the flyers the cops totally found in this dude’s vehicle. Completely legit, not planted by the police flyers. Yup.
