In fact I haven’t seen or heard them myself. I do remember seeing this message ahead of the assassination attempt on Gabrielle Giffords though:
Do you think that shooter was activated by this messaging?
It doesn’t matter: Palin changed her rhetoric because of course you would

Victim blaming hmm your a suck puppy
woooooosh…. The point must have gone over your head
Pelosi was victim blamed. Trump mocked her and her husband. Trump has received nothing if not overwhelming sympathy from all sides after being attacked tonight. Worth highlighting how the very people he mocked for surviving their own attempts on their lives (because of trumps rhetoric against them many would argue) are thanking god he is okay now.
The overarching Democrat message has been that Trump must be stopped at any cost, and I made a benign statement that this messaging will be toned down and language like putting Trump in a bullseye won't be used anymore. This is absolutely going to happen after an assassination attempt since a bullet is an example of "at any cost". The messaging will be changed to "at the polls".
You come out with a nonsense combination of Pelosi, January 6th, and now Gabrielle Giffords in response to this benign statement, and then tell me to read your posts slower. You're the most argumentative poster on this site and the fact you still haven't addressed my actual statement about messaging shows this.
law enforcement press conference fbi "have no motive"
I’m surprised the shooter didn’t have blue hair; those with TDR usually do. Insane to see an assassination attempt like this come so close in the modern US, would have thought these days that it is close to impossible to get a clean shot at someone like that, maybe the fact Trump is not currently president means his security isn’t quite the presidential package?
couldnt identify shooter cos he had no head left?
It looks liked the person who was killed was Black.
White leftist murders Black MAGA supporter!
footage of shooter before and after, tmz blurred it :/
All part of a itsmear campaign
who said “at any cost?”
I don’t even know who you are but it’s nice to be admired
photo the shooter and name out there
FBI saying they’re not ready to disclose/confirm the name of the shooter. But they have apparently identified them.
Unconfirmed.
no journal articles confirming this (yet?)
think those insta accounts are fake self publicity
NYT confirms it!
do you have the link?
being named in many media outlets here in the states.
New York Post… https://nypost.com/2024/07/13/us-news/thomas-matthew-crooks-idd-as-gunman-who-shot-trump-during-pa-rally/
unnamed sources and NYP has gotten things wrong before. Article doesn’t link them to any social media account anyway or posit background or motive.
NYP is just one example.
Obviously Reddit local has it 30 minutes ago, now deleted.
not much details but Biden and Trump have spoken tonight, Biden heads back to DC

I’d wait for FBI confirmation and it wouldn’t be the first time internet doxxers got the wrong accounts off the right names either. Could totally be him but I’d await concrete information. I think officials are putting a lid on things tonight. Morning press conferences will be illuminating hopefully.
That first photo definitely isn't him anyway. Doesn't mean it isn't his account though
Already the memes are rolling
Throws a lot of narratives out the window if true...
and also that he’s Antifa…. 🤷🏻♂️
Wait for officials to give the straight version tomorrow imho.

Yeah, good point. I didn’t grab those screenshots from Instagram as they were posted on X already and quoted in Reddit.
Oh dear, this woman has probably lost herself her job over a pretty stupid act;

several articles about that comment. Thompson will likely have her out on her ass.
