Facts:

Rahmanullah Lakanwal, was not an undocumented immigrant.
He worked with the CIA beginning in 2011, during the U.S. mission in Afghanistan. He was vetted multiple times by the CIA and the National Counterterrorism Center. He was granted asylum earlier this year by the Trump administration.

NOW! MAGA is silent. The National Guard shooter, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in 2021 and was granted LEGAL ASYLUM by the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION in April 2025.
No tweets. No rallies. No outrage. Just crickets.

When the facts hit their hero, the narrative vanishes. Hypocrisy on full display.

Person A - "Let's say he wrote "anti-ICE messages" on his casings."

Person B - "What exactly would that be? Just the word Anti-ICE?"

Person A - "Good enough."

The mortgage fraud claim against Lisa Cook is false, per documents obtained by Reuters.

Bill Pulte's accusation, the sole pretext Trump used to fire her from the Fed, was that she claimed two homes as primary residence.

These docs show she did not.

GOP Summary: Groypers vs. Gropers

The Groypers are mad at the Gropers for being Gropers and not Groypy enough to manifest their race war fantasies.

The Gropers don’t like the Groypers but need them as pawns to keep stoking the threat of race wars.

You’re all caught up.

The MSM whitewashing of Kirk is in full swing.

They talk about his advocacy for civil debate, but they won’t play anything he said to stoke incivility.

They talk about his opposition to violence, but nobody talks about his role in J6.

We are watching Kirk’s history being rewritten in real time.

“White man fight back” is a natural reaction to a white man getting shot by another white man in the whitest state in the union.

Trump will do all he can to “fix” the 2026 and 2028 elections to secure MAGA victories by every method he can muster, however blatantly illegal and unconstitutional, whatever the courts might say. If every eligible voter shows up, we can overwhelm his schemes.

Otherwise, our way of life is doomed.

Our federal taxes are being used pretty much solely for disseminating (really cringey) propaganda, violating people’s civil and human rights, targeting political opponents, and extorting media, universities, blue states, and foreign countries

Violent crime is at a 30-year low in Washington, but that doesn’t stop Trump from lying he needs to take over the city because of all the violent crime. Meanwhile, expect his Republican accomplices to remain silent while he builds his police state. Each of them is accountable.
