Just want to be sure our House MAGAs know how their people are lying to them.

CNN update at 8:00am ET this morning --

Attack suspect was in the US illegally, DHS official says​

The suspect charged in the Boulder attack, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, was in the US illegally, Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said Monday.

“He entered the country in August 2022 on a B2 visa that expired on February 2023. He filed for asylum in September 2022,” McLaughlin wrote on X.

Soliman was booked in county jail just before midnight, where records show he is charged with multiple felonies. He is expected in court Monday afternoon.

CNN update at 9:30am ET this morning --

Attack suspect's work authorization expired at the end of March​

Mohamed Sabry Soliman, the suspect charged in the Boulder attack, arrived in the United States in August 2022 as a non-immigrant visitor, according to multiple law enforcement officials.

He filed a claim a month later, in September, and was granted a work authorization in March, 2023. The authorization expired at the end of March of this year, at which point it appears he remained here illegally, the officials added.

More on the incident: After committing the attack, the suspect told police “I did it to avenge my people,” one of the law enforcement officials said.

“… Since the November election, the Trump Organization, the family’s flagship real-estate firm, and its partners have publicly announced 12 international projects including residential high-rises, hotels and golf courses—far outpacing the two overseas deals announced during his first administration.

The Trump Organization released an ethics agreement in January barring the company from doing business directly with foreign governments. Yet several of the deals involve foreign governments, especially in the Middle East.

The Trumps say there is a crucial distinction. The company isn’t transacting directly with foreign governments. Rather, some of the Trump deals are joint ventures with companies that are doing business with foreign governments.…”

Silence, Pandemic Blue, Ramrouser, etc. would have dismissed this as #fakenews.

Or you can prove me wrong.

Add Trump's private life shenanigans and the only comparison is the mob. Remember that his early lawyer and mentor was Roy Cohn who was known as a "lawyer to the mob".

And was the top aide to Senator Joseph McCarthy as well, who in retrospect was a kind of Trump prototype. Kind of fits that McCarthy and Trump would be connected by somebody like Cohn.

What's sad... is that they have to visit this site for it to even be news to them. No way is this making it's way into the right-wing mediaverse.

And I'm sure that there will be a perfectly good excuse for it if they do show up and comment on it. But most likely it'll be crickets.

We've confused so many acts of Christian patriotism with those that they don't trust us. Well, that's their story and they bought and intimidated the media fair and square.
