Cable Forum - President Trump 2.0

Trump doesn't exactly apologise. He'll no doubt still pedal the vast number of it's own personnel fight their war. Anyway this will overshadow another fatal shooting in Minneapolis

There's raw footage but I'm unsure I'm allowed to post so will refrain.

Not sure ICE will get away with this one - too many videos from different angles…

Videos on social media that were verified by The New York Times contradict the Department of Homeland Security’s account of the fatal shooting of a man by federal agents in Minneapolis on Saturday morning.

The Department of Homeland Security said the episode began after a man approached Border Patrol agents with a handgun and they tried to disarm him. But footage from the scene shows the man was holding a phone in his hand, not a gun, when federal agents took him to the ground and shot him.

There’s a video showing him and a woman being shoved to the ground by ICE, he then tries to help the woman up, the ICE agents (5 or 6) throw him to the ground, where he is on his knees with his head to the ground (his arms are pinned behind him), it’s noticed by the agents he has a pistol in the back of his trousers (Minnesota is an "open carry" State), one of the ICE Agents remove the pistol (this is clearly visible in the agent’s hand), then a shot rings out, the victim falls flat to the ground, the agents scatter about five feet from the victim, then one of the ICE agents shoots him five or six more times.

Just seen the video. Apparently the person shot was planning a 'massacre' of local law enforcement agents according to Homeland Security officials.

You just can't make it up. Unless you're trying to cover it up that is. :erm:

Let’s hope it concludes like the film of the same name.

No, I suspect that in reality one of his Secret Service people will suddenly draw their weapon and put a bullet in the back of his head before anyone else could react.

Re: President Trump 2.0

At least he's backed down over Greenland. Whew. Seems WWIII won't be happening after all. He'll probably increase the US military presence there anyway, but to be fair he's entitled to do that via established treaties.

Still a disrespectful nutter, though. :erm:

Yes, one might. In my UFO reboot fanfic, one does.

Re: President Trump 2.0

Now he's fired Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve - for something she did before being appointed.

Check her skin colour.

<sarcasm>Oh, I'm so surprised.</sarcasm>

Oh, he would love the very first episode of Harley Quinn, "Til Death Us Do Part":

"Gentlemen! My fellow whites! Let's raise a glass to this pyramid of money, the foundation of which was built upon our favourite pastime: f***ing the poor!"

(The writer put that 'whites' comment in to be ironic. The cartoon is not...exactly...politically correct, as Harley turns out to be a lesbian - bet you'd like it, Kimmy [right, that's it, the drunken elf trying & failing to be helpful, a.k.a. autocorrect, has made its last stupid mistake, putting in 'Jimmy' when I typed 'Kimmy'! OFF!] and Catwoman is black, among other things.)
