Tucker Carlson: "I never mention @benshapiro because I don't think about him very often."
CUT TO ALL THE TIMES Tucker Carlson has mentioned Ben Shapiro on his show:
I hate this discourse so much, because again, I *understand* and have been warning about inflation for years.
I told everyone during covid that costs would rise substantially.
But somehow, even on top of that, everyone seems to want me to pretend that everything is dramatically worse than it even is. This post is pure "vibes", but factually absurd.
Chipotle is about as expensive as any burrito place gets and every single burrito on their menu is not only less than $20, but under $12 and averages closer to $10. Even if I move my location to the trendiest part of Atlanta, that holds.
And if $12 is too much, I promise, you can make these things easily at home and put <$20, into a whole week's worth of burritos.
I'm sorry, but I'm not going to pretend this isn't the actual reality just to say things whiny zoomers want to hear.
Is inflation a problem? Hell yes!
Are young people incapable of affording a burrito in the US? No.
Stop imagining problems that don't exist, we have enough real ones as it is.
Odysseus doesnt want to come home and Penelope doesnt want HIM she wants SOMEONE TO BE KING.
It's a gross deconstruction of one of the most iconic love stories in all of history.
The story is SUPPOSED to be about spouses longing for each other...it is the driving impetus of the journey and a critical component of the MAIN CONFLICT of being kept apart.
It Eliminates the dramatic reality that Odysseus could have immortality and accompanying carnality with Circe OR Calypso. He could live forever in pure indulgence...but he gives that up to return to his love.
The movie has no motivations, no conflict, no emotions, no sacrifice. It is bad.
Hello Mrs. Owens,
You told millions of people that Tyler Robinson "wasn't even there." That you felt "confident stating that Tyler Robinson did not kill murder Charlie Kirk."
He was on camera. Prone on the Losi rooftop at 12:22. Shot at 12:23:28. DNA on the screwdriver at 30 quintillion to one. DNA on the rifle at 1.7 octillion to one. He told his family what he did. His parents helped him surrender. He texted his roommate: "I am, I'm sorry." He engraved "Hey Fascist! Catch!" on the ammunition a month before he used it.
You said police "didn't even question" Lance Twiggs. He was interviewed twice. FBI the morning after. Joint state-federal team seven months later. His own attorney. Voluntary phone surrender. You laughed when you said it.
You told Shawn Ryan a shaped charge killed Charlie. That PETN was in his microphone. The medical examiner says gunshot wound. Bullet fragments were recovered from his body. A .30-06 Mauser with Robinson's DNA was found in the woods. Neither side — not prosecution, not defense — has mentioned explosives. Not once in four days.
You said the shot came from below. The Losi building is above the amphitheater.
You called Erika Kirk a "clinical psychopath" to an audience of millions. You said the assassination was "an occult ritual." You said Charlie was "sitting in a pentagram." You told people Israel killed him because he refused Netanyahu.
You made over a hundred episodes. You built a franchise on a dead man's name.
And the hardest fact of all: Tyler Robinson's own defense lawyers — the people whose entire career is on the line to get him acquitted — have refused to make a single one of your arguments. Not one. They're challenging DNA methodology. They are doing their jobs. You were doing something else entirely.
Charlie Kirk changed my life. He platformed my work when nobody knew who I was. He had my back when I was doxxed. I was the ten-thousandth most important person in his world and I will never be able to repay him.
So I did what I know how to do. I read every transcript. I watched every hour of testimony. I cataloged your claims and I held them up against what was said under oath.
Every single one failed.
I don't know why you did this. I'm not going to speculate on your motives, because that would make me exactly the kind of analyst I've spent my career refusing to be. But I know what you did. You told people confident lies about a dead man's murder, and millions of them believed you, and some of them turned that belief into threats against his widow.
The trial continues. And every day of sworn testimony is another day your words get tested against reality... under oath, on the record, where it counts.
I'll be here for all of it... because just as Charlie defended me, I will do what little I can to defend his legacy and @TPUSA and @MrsErikaKirk from evil.
Brief Report: Historical and Forensic Instances of Non-Exiting .30-06 or Similar High-Velocity Rifle Wounds in Humans
High-velocity rifle rounds such as the .30-06 typically produces perforating (entry and exit) wounds due to their muzzle velocities exceeding 2,500 ft/s and high kinetic energy, which promotes deep penetration. However, non-exiting wounds occur when bullets deform, yaw (tumble), fragment, or interact with dense structures like bone, transferring all energy to tissue and resulting in retained projectiles. This is more common with expanding designs like soft-point or hollow-point bullets, which expand on impact to reduce penetration and increase energy transfer. Factors including bullet design, impact angle, distance, and tissue type, all lead to lodged intact or fragmented bullets without an exit.
Below are key documented instances, including military statistics and cases with survivors.
One notable historical example is the 1968 assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., where a .30-06 soft-point bullet from a Remington 760 rifle entered the right jaw, descended into the neck, struck the thoracic vertebrae, fragmented into three pieces, and lodged without producing an exit wound (source: https://t.co/OagbOJjPgC). His case illustrates how bone interaction can cause fragmentation and retention in high-velocity impacts.
Military Statistics and Wound Ballistics Data from conflicts like World War II and Vietnam, where .30-06 was standard in rifles such as the M1 Garand, show that while these rounds often exit, non-exits occur in 15-25% of torso or neck hits when bullets yaw early or fragment upon striking bone (source: https://t.co/QPIt66hjJA). A U.S. Army report on .30-06 ballistics notes that full metal jacket (FMJ) bullets may exit cleanly if no yaw, but early yaw increases temporary cavitation (up to 30 cm diameter) and fragmentation, leading to retained fragments and no exit in human-sized targets.
Broader trauma data from a review of 88,054 U.S. firearm assaults indicates 14.2% involved retained bullets overall, though the rate is lower for high-velocity rifles (around 10-15% in military contexts) due to their penetrating nature; however, when retained, complications like fractures or infections arise in survivors (source: https://t.co/ukLBEFxVS6).
In Vietnam-era data for .308 (used in M14 rifles), similar patterns show non-exits in cases of bone deflection, with temporary cavities causing remote organ damage but allowing survival if major vessels are spared. Other Forensic Instances and Survivors
Forensic pathology outlines that high-velocity rifle bullets, including .308 and .30-06, can fail to exit if they fragment, creating irregular wounds with retained lead fragments visible as a “lead snowstorm” on X-rays (source: https://t.co/65DrDJkuAN). In a documented hunting accident, a close-range .30-06 wound to the forearm caused extensive bone comminution and bullet fragmentation without an exit, requiring surgical debridement and reconstruction; the patient survived with retained fragments and an arm is much smaller and less dense than a neck (source: https://t.co/kIUlBvfBoe). Another review of rifle wounds notes survivors with lodged .308 fragments in extremities, where no exit occurred due to energy dump in muscle; in a study of 344 nonfatal gunshot patients, 75.5% had retained bullets (including from rifles), with 74.2% not requiring removal and surviving long-term, though 11.2% faced complications (source: https://t.co/ukLBEFxVS6). General forensic myths debunked include the assumption that high-velocity always exits or “blows up the bone”; instead, deformation in tissue can lead to full retention and survival (source: https://t.co/KbjdFA50s2).
In summary, historical, military, and forensic records document non-exits in potentially hundreds of cases with survival possible.
The microtransactions in CFB 27 RTG and Dynasty while also taking away the fast coach XP slider is the clear breaking point for all of us. Get that garbage out of the game.
It’s a shame I really liked what the devs made this year otherwise.
#CFBPlayDontPay
Sneaking micro transactions into single player modes lets me know everything i need to about where EA wants to take both football titles in the future
That’s why it’s now or never to make a change. Taking the game in that direction is going to ruin all of the support and love you have built from this community. Do what’s right @EASPORTSCollege
#CFBPlayDontPay
IDGAF about a partnership. Make a stand against micro transactions in Dynasty and RTG. Take them out and bring XP sliders back @EASPORTSCollege#CFBPlayDontPay
i don’t like being blindsided by micro transactions and removing features hidden behind all the new shiny stuff
i like the game a lot. the devs did a great job. whoever made the micro transaction decision did not #CFBPlayDontPay
It feels like EA intentionally hid micros transactions into dynasty as a slow roll out so it could continue to get worse in the future
I asked a dev if it was an early access bug that the fast and fastest option was missing, heard nothing back
I still haven’t even found the screen to buy coach XP in Dynasty there’s no buttons to show it. Also apparently they took away custom XP sliders in Road to Glory too?
I don’t like the direction on this. I already said the MVP+ Membership was an awful idea, you shouldn’t have to buy Madden too if you want all the early college benefits
I am more scared our single player modes could be hit with heavy micro transactions since Ultimate Team is clearly not what college cares about
Also Drew said more in a reply about what early access capture was like this year… yeah way more anal than previous ones. More stressful than fun. Idc to do it again if it’s like that
