    How is this not bigger news!

    I have to listen to weeks about some random podcaster getting shot, but a judge whose made judgements against trump has their house burned down and everyone is all quite?

      Because we still don’t have a cause for the fire.This could be arson or it could be a freak accident.

      To be fair, Kirk’s murder was graphic and in a public event. He was a pretty-well known figure, whereas most people don’t know who this specific judge is. The arson didn’t happen in a packed crowd in broad daylight.

      This probably should be bigger news, but is makes sense why it isn’t as widely talked about

        Also my understanding is that as of now it may not be arson

    Got a week ban from Reddit for saying this guy deserves a swirly. Apparently the threshold for what constitutes as violent rhetoric is super low for these snowflakes.

    The wild thing about Stephen Miller is that, even if he never opened his mouth. Even if you had no idea about his politics or his stance on literally anything. You could just look at this guy and think “Yeah…this guy looks like he definitely has an SS uniform in his closet at home.”

    He could be a nobody on the street, and you’re a casting director for a big time WW2 film looking for extras to play nazi officers. You see him and you think “My god…he’s perfect.”

    Not that you need an article to figure out Stephen Miller is a whiny sack of shit, lol. But still worth acknowledging it on the record 🙂

    If you think of Republicans like Sinn Fein, then “maga” is basically the terrorist wing, so maga is like their IRA. Except in this case, the conservatives are fighting for the end of democratic principles (and human rights, etc.).

    So… has the fire been officially deemed arson? Last I saw they were still investigating the cause. The one calling it arson in the article is a congressman, not the fire department.
