    So a nazi killed his parents as the first step of a plot to assassinate Trump, while a socialist torched Josh Shapiro's house. I'm beginning to worry that our political assassins are deeply confused about who exactly is on which side.

    All while occurring in the exact same nation where things like the Comet Ping-Pong shooting occurred.

    It’s almost as if the country is filled with complete idiots.

    Honestly, I would encourage anyone who has a real, direct path to dual citizenship to pursue it even if you have faith that the US will overcome the current issues.

    There's basically no downside unless you have a need for the higher US security clearances, and the socialized healthcare and portability of an EU passport is pretty amazing. Even if/when the US clears this current crisis, it has really underscored the fragility of the government and how quickly things can change. Spain may or may not be better in that respect, but having options is huge - especially in the freedom of movement within the EU.

    More details: he apparently planned to beat Shapiro with a hammer. If I had a nickel for every time a crazy person planned to beat a high-ranking Democrat to death with a hammer, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

    Did any of the media follow up on this at all? Like, “hey, while you were walking in the room you said something about home-growns and needing four or five more? Can you elaborate?”

    By "media" do you mean "Marjorie Taylor Green's boyfriend" while the AP has to stand outside and listen through the keyhole in violation of a SCOTUS ruling?

    Is the only media in there now friendlies? If so, he’s still calling them ”terrible people” to their faces?
