Any theory you have on the bombing has already been debunked.
Well, I didn't expect such an elaborate way to kill yourself, for one.

Reminds me a bit of the passage from The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, when Dirk Gently goes to the home of a client, Mr. Geoff Anstey, a record executive. He finds a swarm of police, who inform him that Mr. Anstey's body was found in a basement room, locked from the inside and heavily barricaded, sitting in a comfortable chair with a cup of coffee, several feet away from his head which had been neatly severed and placed on a rotating turntable.

The police detective commented "these smart-alec show-off suicides really make me tired. They only do it to annoy."

The Washington post, showing its lack of political bias:




Wait a sec... Wasn't it President Obama who pioneered the use of drones for the targeted, extra-judicial assassination of US citizens on foreign soil back in 2009?

https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...citizen-awlaki

Yes, there it is.

It's only a theory before it's proven.

Following this theme:

If Trump is Hitler, then anyone wearing a Trump mask is a ****. And it's ok to kick *****.

Honestly, aside from the fact that it's delusional, I don't see a problem here. The Liberals are being logically consistent.

Jennifer Bendery's bio says that they is a "senior politics reporter for HuffPost," and "President of Washington Press Club Foundation."

They posted this earlier:
