Multiple people set on fire in attack during Colorado pro-Israeli march, police say​

“A man reportedly set people on fire in Boulder, Colorado, leaving multiple individuals injured, the city’s police chief said, as people gathered for a ‘peaceful’ pro-Israeli demonstration.

A suspect is in custody and police are investigating what FBI officials immediately called “a targeted terror attack” — though the local authorities said it was too early to define the attack.

… The man threw bottles that apparently contained flammable liquid that hit the ground and exploded in flames, multiple law enforcement officials briefed on the investigation told CNN, noting the exact number of bottles was unclear….”

According to the tweet you posted, he was here legally until the end of March this year. Whey did the Trump Admin allow this to happen on their watch?

With comments like these I can tell you're not serious about the issue, but would rather score political points. You guys can't help yourselves, its sickening.

Are you then trying to make a point about "visa overstay" and how that could/should be addressed?

It seems like the election of Tusk and his party was a dead cat bounce for democracy, and in the next parliamentary we will see the right wing take back over and Poland will go the way of other failed democracies like Hungary.

If it is going the way of Hungary then any LGBTQ person needs to be planning their exit from the country as soon as possible, as they are about to be legally "canceled" and vigorously removed from public life. Which, to be fair, is also happening here in some red states - such as the new blatantly anti-LGBTQ law that has passed both houses of the Texas state legislature.

Angered because Patel and Bongino failed to say Epstein was an agent of the Israeli intelligence services, Wakulik advocated “torture to get information, to extract information … whether it’s waterboarding or sleep deprivation.”

Wakulik has also advocated shooting Susie Wiles, Trump’s White House chief of staff.

I thought it was striking that the local officials were more cautious than the FBI, but plenty of folks criticized the local authorities for being too timid about their statements given the immediately available evidence. I personally think being circumspect and careful about public statements pending confirmatory investigation is the appropriate response, I don’t think that many people are going to be critical of Patel or Bongino in this instance. Given the more serious concerns about their leadership, Patel and Bongino have been under scrutiny and probably benefit from immediate firm responses and media coverage of them leading an investigation.
