From the garbage Axios article that this garbage article sites as it's primary source [0]:
>"...in response to a post from former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn, an account called "TheVictim24" posted last week, ["]It's be nice if you people weren't just okay with the military and police stage a rebellion and framing civilians. Zero people trust the police and if the military comes in, we'll kill them. Someone admit this nation needs to be nuked because it's satanic.["]..."
Don't like it. Not my style for sure. But honestly, that is not a wild incitement to violence, namely because it's a theoretical response to a theoretical institution of martial law. Is that really the damning content that the public must be shielded from?
>"...federal investigation into Trump’s alleged mishandling of high-stakes classified information — a situation that’s already inspired real-world violence — raises the stakes on a social app where the former president is able to openly communicate to his followers in real time."
Fairly high profile lawyers have already made statements to the effect that this was unprecedented and illegal (1), but take notice of the framing of the statement. The intent is to provide the impression Trump is somehow culpable for violence resultant from a DOJ investigation of himself. And, that the situation is expedient, "communicate... in real time". Shocking!
Sorry, but this is a hit-piece . It doesn't acknowledge any information is even available but the contrived support for this ideology.
It is disingenuous to read an article like this and then claim it to be journalism or unbiased or fair reporting. If you refuse to see that, you have a "dog in the fight".
Watch this get banned now for inciting violence...
