100%. Same with Tom Fitton. I used to get annoyed back in the t_d days when he'd post stuff like, "we do the HEAVY LIFTING on exposing DC corruption!" and then post a pic of his back and triceps with the Washington monument in the background. But then I realized the dude just having some fun. He never begged us for money. He never belittled us for not knowing more. And he never came off as a putz or it's higher than thou. If all he wanted was to show off the guns a little then that's really not too much to ask for someone who's doing so much to expose the corruption.
Most conflicts manifest themselves as cursory bagatelles, but a few end up in situations of organized, collective violence (e.g., armed conflict). It is thus crucial to understand how trivial contradictions can become meaningful conflicts in a broader societal context. This evolution, referred to as conflict escalation, is understood as an intensification of a conflict with regard to the observed extent and the means used (Pruitt, Kim, & Rubin, 2003, pp. 87–91; Mitchell, 2014, pp. 71–75). Conflict escalation is characterized by processes of circular interaction that “lead to the growth and restructuring of the parties, generating new reasons and pretexts for applying additional means, thus leading to an expansion and fundamentalization of the content of the conflict” (Eckert & Willems, 2003, p. 1183). Given its dynamics and, to a certain degree, its autonomous nature, an escalating conflict represents both an evolving process and a self-stabilizing structure, or, in other words, a social system in its own right
This sounds very familiar. Very. Stuff like homeless guys donating $100 more than once... I feel like it was from around the 2016 general? Maybe earlier. Anyone?
For once let's just break the news without a pre anouncement.
After what O'Keefe's been through, I let him have his fun.
I just want to wake up up some day,with major news breaking......
Like the way it used to be.
like the way it used to be when you didn't pay attention every day xD
No in the old days people would just release the news when it happened or when it was ready.
Makes sense.
"In breaking news, we will break breaking news tomorrow. Today, the breaking news is broken."

Somebody should call a vet because those pythons are sick!
I give james o keefe a pass on this, because when he says breaking news coming?
It always comes on time. Not 2 weeks
Boy, no complaints with O'Keefe. He comes through with serious good shit.
Conflict Escalation
