They think they found the guy dead in a storage place in New Hampshire.

US senators celebrated the right wing Trumpist killing 2 Minnesota politicians. I think that's more impactful than randos on twitter or facebook making fun of Charlie Kirk's murder.

Man, they are already killed Charlie Kirk.  What the fuck else do you want?

It was one weird internet brained freak.

And Kirk was just some random debate bro. Not sure what killing him does for anybody.

Eh, he was pretty big in Republican circles.  He wasn't in the President's inner circle, but he met with the President several times.  It's not like he was some rando.  Turning Point raised hundreds of millions of dollars.  

I was not impressed with people cheering his death or coming up with conspiracy theories to deflect blame.

Yes. The OJ case is a crazy outlier. What is the basis of this claim? The cops of the prosecutor fucking up a few things isn't going to save a defendent. They have to really fuck up.

Are you  implying the cops fucked up the OJ case? I think that's a myth. Unless you're talking about Mark Fuhrman admitting he beat up black gang members.

Well he did commit perjury.  That is a problem.

As part of a psychiatric exam they ask a bunch of questions.  One of the questions, probably to test memory, is "can you name the last 5 presidents".  I remember during my first exam, when I was 18, the psychiatrist asked this question and I showed-off and named all them.  I asked three coworkers if they could do this.  None of them could.  I find that mildly disturbing. 

Could they at least name Obama, Trump, and Biden? I could see Bush and Clinton being ancient history to some people.

Nope.  They all just answered they couldn't name the last five Presidents.  They didn't even try.  Well, one said she remembered Trump and Biden but couldn't remember past Obama because she was only a little kid then.  She's only 18.  Of course she dropped out of school after 8th grade.

Jacob, you were asking what was going on inside the Conservative party.
I told you FB was quieter than usual.

Last election in April, they got 23% of the vote in Quebec.

Two recent, reliable polls over the last couple of weeks gave them 15% ( Ipsos) and 13% (Pallas) of the vote.

They are losing ground, they have less vocal supporters.

I can't say what's going on inside the party, those that were elected here were elected in pretty safe ridings.  Unless PP goes full Gestapo on them, I will be very surprised if one of them moves or initiates a putsch.

However, some of them may vote against PP in his leadership review as they see their chances of survival diminishing as time pass.

Yeah, sorry I wasn't trying to say the glove thing was the cops fault, but the reason OJ got away with murder*. Well, until he lost everything in the civil case.


*as my little kid mind understood it.

I was a kid so my memory is obviously faulty but wasn't a big part of it the whole glove  over a glove thing that sealed the deal. That and the rhyme that went with it. Some people also blamed a "diverse" jury, but those people were the usual very white suspects.

What part each aspect played relies on speculation about the jury's thought processes, but regardless the glove was a fuckup by the prosecutors (and I agree it was a fuckup), not the cops.
