The FBI was forced to clarify its role investigating Sen. Lindsey Graham’s (R-SC) sudden death after its director took to social media and made what critics called a “reckless” boast.

Even as MAGA influencers peddled baseless claims that Graham was killed in a secret Russian plot, Kash Patel informed his followers on X that the FBI was assisting local authorities — and drew immediate criticism for fanning the flames of conspiracy.

“Kash Patel is such an attention w---- and he just can’t help himself,” wrote political strategist Mike Nellis.

    I learned about this recent study in some thread that got deleted for some reason, and I was so happy I saw it before it disappeared.

    Long read, but totally worth it. I have a lot of conservative family, and they can be genuinely the best people at times. But then that last piece of them just breaks my reality, like how are these 2 sides of you in the same person?

    I intended to just skim it since it is so long, but I got sucked in, and when it got to demon possession… 🤯

      They see their in group (family, friends, and other maga shits) as humans and those outside as subhuman.
