What’s the point of having guns if you can’t brandish?
An 18-year-old is now a former freshman at the University of Delaware after he was allegedly seen brandishing a gun on campus in a Snapchat video.
Michael Hearn, Junior was seen with the gun Friday, UD police said.
Possession of firearms, ammunition and other weapons is prohibited on university property under unless campus police OK it, and Hearn, who’s now been “separated” from UD and banned from the campus, is charged with possession of a firearm by a person prohibited, along with several drug offenses.
He also faces further disciplinary action by UD’s Office of Student Conduct, and is currently being held at the Howard Young Prison.
Jan 6 committee refers Donald Trump for criminal prosecution on four counts
Four Republicans referred to House ethics committee for refusing to comply with panel’s subpoenas, including Kevin McCarthy
The four counts of the Trump referrals are for “influencing or impeding an official proceeding of the US government”, “conspiring to defraud the US”, “unlawfully, knowingly or willingly making false statements to the federal government”, and “assisting or engaging in insurrection against the United States”.
The referrals are largely symbolic, as attorney general Merrick Garland will make his own decision on charges at the conclusion of the justice department’s own investigations, headed by special prosecutor Jack Smith.
The panel is also referring four Republican members of Congress to the House ethics committee for refusing to comply with subpoenas, including Kevin McCarthy, the GOP leader who is expected to run for speaker of the House when the party takes control of the chamber next year.
The January 6 committee’s full report is expected to be released today.
On the Mt Rushmore of evil fuckers out to murder our American multicultural democracy, don’t forget Tucker Carlson
Carlson is a demagogue who sneers at America’s heritage as a multicultural nation bound by shared principles like liberty, equality, and democracy. He instead embraces the blood-and-soil nationalism of European autocracies. This radical and reactionary philosophy is swiftly gaining power on the American right, thanks to adherents such as the fascist billionaire Peter Thiel and his pet philosopher Curtis Yarvin and hand-picked Sen.-elect J.D. Vance. Carlson is that movement’s accelerant; he is using his weekday program on Fox and regular specials on its streaming platform, Fox Nation, as well as his influence over the Republican Party, to bring it into the mainstream.
