Army deletes video of DC parade tanks with 'Hang Fauci & Bill Gates' graffiti
Steve Warren, an Army spokesperson, said they have no plans to investigate. 'We removed the post once notified of graffiti on the train that didn't align with Army values,' he said.

A now-deleted Army video of tanks being loaded onto a train to Washington, D.C., to appear in the massive June 14 military parade for the Army's 250th anniversary showed a graffitied message spray-painted on the side of the train car – "Hang Fauci & Bill Gates."

The video, posted to the Army's X account on Saturday, has since disappeared. It showed an M1A2 Abrams – a 70-ton battle tank – rolling onto a train car at Fort Cavazos in Texas.

The death threat to Fauci and Gates – two people who have drawn the ire of President Donald Trump's MAGA base – was painted on a train car marked DODX, property of the Defense Department.

Steve Warren, an Army spokesperson, said the Army has no plans to investigate.

"We removed the post once notified of graffiti on the train that didn't align with Army values," he said. "We are excited to celebrate 250 years of service to the nation next week."

We are not better off when media fires those who speak truth and pay millions to Trump as apology for speaking truth. Only praise of dear leader permitted in New North Korea.

We aren't better off when media behaves that way. But he's better off than having to work for a media company who would do that.

Here's hoping he lands on his feet someplace better.

I don’t understand how people are shocked or surprised. They value money over life in every aspect of human existence. Of course they’d be more likely to deport a kid with cancer because a kid with cancer is expensive and can’t work. “Oh the inhumanity” yeah no fucking shit it’s completely consistent with everything they’ve been saying for 70 years. Why pretend like this is new or different or some line being crossed. These motherfuckers want to own people like they’re furniture. They always have.

It's not surprising. It's just more evidence.

Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed, and state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife were wounded following politically motivated shootings overnight, Gov. Tim Walz said Saturday.

Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband were killed, and state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife were wounded following politically motivated shootings overnight, Gov. Tim Walz said Saturday.

Hortman and her husband were shot in Brooklyn Park, while Hoffman and his wife were shot in Champlin.

At a Saturday morning press conference, Walz called the deaths of Hortman and her husband "a political assassination."

Hortman represented Minnesota House District 34B, and Hoffman Minnesota Senate District 34. Both were members of the Democratic Party.

"Hortman was someone who served the people of Minnesota with grace, compassion, humor, and a sense of service," Walz said. "She was a formidable public servant. A fixture and a giant in Minnesota."

Walz said Hoffman and his wife were each shot multiple times.

"We are cautiously optimistic they will survive this assassination attempt," Walz said.

Authorities say the suspect is a White man with brown hair who's believed to be wearing a blue shirt and blue pants. They say he is misrepresenting himself as law enforcement.

Metro residents are advised that if police show up at your door, they will be officers in pairs, not alone. Do not answer the door unless there are two officers there. If there is just one officer, call 911 immediately. Authorities will know if any officers were sent to your residence.

Walz highlighted how these acts of violence occurred following a special session where both sides compromised for the good of Minnesota.

"We don't settle our differences with violence or at gunpoint," Walz said. "In the state of Minnesota, and as recently as last week, in the most closely divided state legislature in the country, we sat down, shook hands and compromised, and we served the state of Minnesota together. It's possible in politically charged times to find compromise, democracy and civil discourse. I, Minnesota and across the country, stand against all forms of political violence."

Legislators were alerted this morning and those in the metro area were told to take extra safety precautions. The executive director of the Minnesota Sheriff's Association, in a Facebook post, said that "an evil coward dressed as a protector, went to the homes of two Minnesota elected officials and shot them."

Minnesota police agencies and the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension are currently leading the investigation, officials report.

CBS News has also reached out to the FBI and other agencies for comment.

Hortman represented Minnesota House District 34B, and Hoffman Minnesota Senate District 34.

Organizers for the planned "No Kings" protest in Northeast Minneapolis said the event would be canceled due to the shootings and shelter-in-place.

"Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the communities impacted by this violence," organizers said. "Some events in other parts of the greater Minneapolis area are still moving forward at this time, and we are actively monitoring the situation."

How long before right wing media start calling him a hero?
 
Minnesota had the slimmest of Democrat control; each of these targets removed the advantage Dems had in the state house and senate. Not only do I believe this was a targeted killing but that the goal was to turn Minnesota republican. Purely political assassinations to weaken Walz. I no longer believe in mentally ill weirdos accidentally doing terrorism. I now believe all of these killings are intentional political moves by republicans with purely political motives. There’s no point in looking at these killings as Senseless Tragedies. We have to harden ourselves to this because our empathy is being exploited.

How long before the right wing media says anything??? Or the Trump administration? I've looked and haven't seen much yet. Too busy with Dear Leader's parade. If this was the other way around the right wing media would be in a frenzy. Pamela Bondi would be foaming at the mouth, pledging to go after these terrorists. And neither Trump nor anyone else in the White House apparently have taken the time to comment either. These people have no fucking idea what actual leadership is.
