The more you learn about the Charlie Kirk assassination on September 10 in Utah, the more disgusted and angry you will be. Example No. 1 of information that will make you seeth with anger: this event should have had an on-site ambulance. It did not. When Kirk was shot, he was taken to the hospital in the backseat of an SUV, not in an ambulance. This event had between 2,000 and 4,000 people there at any given time. With an event that large, it is insane that they did not have an on-site...

Credit to MSNBC for firing Matt Dowd, who spewed diarrhea-like venom after learning of Ki...
Let's do a deep dive on the man we've known for about two decades in Minnesota as Tim Walz. He is a charlatan. From Google AI: "A charlatan is a person who pretends to have more knowledge, skill, or expertise than they actually possess, often for the purpose of deceiving or defrauding others. They are essentially frauds or con artists who use false claims and persuasive tactics to build trust and gain personal advantage, particularly by preying on the hopes or fears of others.
