    I kind of wonder if the shooting was planned when looking at the facts

    • shooter background was an Afghan CIA operative
    • shooter was vetted and given asylum by Trump administration in April 2025
    • months ago Trump deployed National Guard to DC without justification citing “crime”, despite crime rates dropping
    • a week ago, a judge ruled the National Guards deployment in DC was unlawful and he lacked authority or cause for it
    • two days ago, operative shoots 2 guardsmen not far from white house and immediately surrenders
    • Trump and Hegseth immediately respond saying not only are the national guards presence there legitimate and justified, but they are activating 500 more to head to DC

    Curious.
