I’m pretty sure that’s exactly what happened here.

The odds of finding the real culprit after they’ve already eluded capture for 5+ days are extremely low.

Additionally, the evidence they supposedly found on him is extremely suspicious:

1. An untraceable gun that he allegedly kept on him the entire time even though the shooter discarded everything else.
2. A confession note that starts by talking about how much he respects the cops.

That doesn’t just sound like the sort of thing that would be planted on him… that sounds like the sort of thing that would be planted on him by an idiot.

Unless they have actual body cam footage of them catching him and finding the evidence, I have to assume he was framed.

That’s encouraging to hear.

Can you share any links about the strategy changes you think will help?

We can’t control the American voters so complaining about them doesn’t actually accomplish anything.

We can, however, change the Democratic party to better align with the voters.

That should be everyone’s focus.

The democrats objectively were wrong.

They lost the election.

That’s the only measure of right or wrong that actually matters.

They literally had only one job and they fucked it up again.

I assume the highlighted region is meant to call out the fact that they’re claiming a metaphorical expression isn’t being used metaphorically.

Yes, that’s incredibly stupid, and yes the entire letter is pro-hate propaganda.

However, I think it’s important to also call out something else about the phrase “wiped of the map”…

It’s an English language idiomatic expression.

Idiomatic expressions are language specific.

When you see a quote attributed to someone speaking Farsi, and it includes English idiomatic expressions, you can be fairly certain the translation is complete bullshit, and whoever created the translation is trying to manipulate you.

100% this.

Don’t just ignore it because they can sue and if you ignore that then you’ll get a default judgment against you which you actually will have to pay even if the original claim was complete bullshit.

On the other hand, if you demand they provide actual proof of the debt they will usually not have it and will just go away.

Honestly, Cosby’s fall was larger than Kanye’s.

Unless you were alive in the 1980’s it’s hard to understand how beloved Bill Cosby was.

It was probably on-par to how Mister Rogers is remembered today.

He went from that to being completely persona non grata.

I think Kanye’s fall is nothing in comparison to that; especially considering that he still has a career even though it’s not as successful as it used to be.

No, not every woman, just the black and brown ones.

This is going to be enforced the exact same way the war on drugs is; selectively based on perceived race.

Trump is full of shit.

There’s no other place for the Palestinians to go.

Egypt and Jordan aren’t going to take Palestinians from Gaza, so all of his talk is just bluster meant to appeal to Israeli right wingers.

My take is that if you are a young and inexperienced employee of DOGE that is being asked to do questionable things with highly sensitive government information, then odds are pretty good that you are the fall guy.

He actually did take the oath without putting his hand on a bible and they did try to make a big deal about it.

John Roberts messed up the oath during the inauguration and they had to redo it later.

During the do-over there was no bible: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_inauguration_of_Barack_Obama

My stubborn position is that all fruits are vegetables.

Anything that comes from a plant (vegetation) is a vegetable.

EDIT: Reading up on the case, they apparently didn’t treat fruits and vegetables as disjoint sets but rather with fruits as a subset of vegetables. So far, so good…

HOWEVER, they also apparently ruled that tomatoes don’t count as a fruit because they aren’t eaten for dessert…

Wow… just… wow.

This is a bury-your-head-in-the-sand level of denial.

His legacy is genocide.

Nothing else… if you engage in genocide that’s the only legacy you get.

Everything else gets overshadowed and forgotten.

One of my favorite foods; stinky tofu is absolutely delicious.

She’ll get even madder if you try to defend yourself saying “I can’t read your mind”…

because that makes it too obvious you weren’t listening when she explicitly told you what was wrong.

Your feelings are valid but the opposite view is also perfectly reasonable.

I would be proud of my wife for being so successful (or, I would have been while I was still alive).

There’s no shame in being in your partner’s shadow. It should be a source of pride and enjoyment instead.

To take an extreme example, look at Dolly Parton and her completely not-a-celebrity husband. Do you think that Dolly Parton’s husband is embarrassed that he isn’t famous or that he’s just thrilled to be married to Dolly Parton?

There’s a reason they don’t call them “Just Okay Horned Owls”

Not to mention the CCTV Spring Festival Gala (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMG_New_Year's_Gala).

This isn’t even remotely close to the biggest.

It’s the format used in large parts of Asia.

It’s already been two and a half days. The longer they go without catching him the less likely it will be that they do.

The fact that they are issuing a wider manhunt seems to back that up.

Given the publicity, I’m sure that they’ll catch a guy, but I’m skeptical that they’ll catch that guy.
