Lunacy and conspiracy

The first thing I saw on Twitter.

Front page of today's New York Times:

"Doctors cash in"
"Drug Cartel Gold"
"Kyiv"
"Michael Jackson"
"War Supply"

Assasination attempt?

Nah...

[Horace]

Current reporting is that the assassin wannabe intended to target Trump and his officials, and that he had an anti-Trump ideology. I don't know. I'll await further information before passing judgment. Seems just as likely that Erika Kirk was behind it, or the Trump administration itself is perpetrating yet another false flag. I'm in deep discussions with my friends on Bluesky about this - I will keep you all posted as the investigation yields more profound and shocking insights into this murky and incomprehensible situation.

That front page is actually the early Sunday edition, which is printed and distributed on Saturdays. So, the dinner/assassination had not even taken place.

Thanks for the correction.

Here's the print web page as of right now.

"Search for motive."

LOL GTFOH.

The Washington Post, on the other hand, are answering key questions in their top headline.

Bought and paid for by Trump and the Israel lobby.

Why would anyone think he’s using her as a shield? To me it looks like the threat was behind them, they are both getting ushered out by someone else, and he’s making sure she doesn’t get left behind.

We are so freaking broken.

@jodi

To me it just looks like a friendly game of tit cricket.

Unfortunate hand placement. But when you are terrified, who cares.

[jon-nyc]

Maybe, but 4 points are 4 points.
