On the one hand of the issue of the CEO shooting, you have reasoned vioces rightly calling the shooter a coward and indicating that violence is not the answer in the face of such disputes. On the other, you have The Artist Formerly Known as Jerry Rivers giving the shooter credit for driving the discussion on healthcare reform. Do not attempt this at home, kids. Watch as Gerardo Rivera gives it up to the shooter: "The fact is Luigi (Mangione) succeeded in- if, indeed, honestly, his goal was to direct attention to the injustices and rally support reform to the healthcare system." Gerardo Rivera notwithstanding: one does NOT, in fact, gotta give it to Luigi. pic.twitter.com/d7SV9UI5Fn — Jorge Bonilla (@BonillaJL) December 12, 2024 CNN NEWSNIGHT WITH ABBY PHILLIP 12/11/24 10:23 PM GERARDO RIVERA: The fact is Luigi (Mangione) succeeded in- if, indeed, honestly, his goal was to direct attention to the injustices and rally support to reform the healthcare system. There has not been this concentrated discussion of U.S. healthcare in the last 24, 48 hours. It is remarkable to me how this kid, however misguided and sick and- and sadistic or whatever else you want to call it, uh, or however warped and, you know, Ayn Rand, uh, Fountainhead, Atlas Shrugged he was. The fact of the matter is- America’s having this discussion.  If we could just reiterate that one does not have to give it to the accused shooter. Never. Likewise, the shooter is not a successful driver of debate. Murder is not persuasive, and does not trigger systemic change. Rivera, who is old enough to know better, should know that this type of lone-wolf violence does not drive the debate on any given issue. Domestic terrorism seldom does.  And yet here’s Rivera, giving credit to a domestic terrorist.  The only thing that the shooter succeeded at was in committing a heinous crime and leaving a family without its father. Perhaps we should also consider that the shooter succeeded in getting the media to cheerlead for him, and idolize him and put him on magazine covers.

WASHINGTON, DC—The white nationalist group Patriot Front has declared it will disband on the same day FBI Director Christopher Wray announced his retirement. This surprising synchronicity has sparked widespread speculation and debate. Patriot Front’s leader, Thomas Rousseau, stated, “We’ve decided to return to our roots,” hinting at a return to less public activities or perhaps disbanding entirely. The timing of this decision aligns precisely with Wray’s departure from his role as the head of the FBI, leading to numerous questions about the connection between these two events. BREAKING: The Patriot Front announces they will be shutting down operations the same day that Wray steps down as FBI Director pic.twitter.com/q05dSPrDix— Gain of Fauci (@DschlopesIsBack) December 12, 2024 The announcement has led to a variety of interpretations. Some see it as a mere coincidence, while others speculate if Wray’s departure prompted the group to reassess its public presence, perhaps fearing increased scrutiny or a change in FBI focus under new leadership. “It’s an interesting overlap, to say the least,” commented one political analyst, suggesting that the timing might not be as random as it appears. The disbandment of Patriot Front has raised discussions about the effectiveness of law enforcement strategies against extremist groups, with some suggesting this could be a sign of successful pressure from authorities. Others are skeptical, questioning whether this is a strategic retreat or rebranding effort, with the group possibly planning to resurface under a different guise. As for Wray, his farewell address emphasized his dedication to the FBI’s mission, leaving room for interpretation about how his leadership might have influenced this outcome. His departure marks the end of an era, and with it, perhaps, a chapter in the narrative of domestic extremism in the U.S. This simultaneous departure and disbandment pose intriguing questions about the future of both law enforcement’s approach to extremism and the trajectory of groups like Patriot Front. Will this mark the beginning of a quieter period for such organizations, or will new, possibly more covert or differently named groups emerge? As we watch these developments unfold, the true motives behind these actions remain unclear, but what is evident is that this moment might signify a shift in how domestic extremist groups operate in response to law enforcement strategies. The coming months will reveal whether this is indeed the end of an era or just a new beginning under different circumstances.
