How soon?

[Tom Graves]

How soon will Trump-supporting tinfoil-hat JFKA conspiracy theorists start saying the videos of the woman being killed in Minneapolis by the ICE agent were altered?

Dear FPR,

They've been altered, right?

BTW, have you seen my new Substack article?

"My stuff" on the KGB for Mr. Fancy Pants

Thomas Graves

Jan 08, 2026

At a JFK assassination forum, all-around genius and pro-Trump former lawyer, Lance P., posted to me:

"My best estimate is that your KGB stuff never had even a kernel of truth."

(paraphrased)

. . . . . . .

My reply:

Dear Fancy Pants Rants,

I doubt that you could accurately explain what my “KGB stuff’ is from my point of view, so here it is so you can study it and maybe even learn something. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?

Thanks to TG, I have a new axiom to add to my personal arsenal and the forthcoming The Sayings of Chairman Lance, to wit: "The only way to effectively deal with lunacy is with utter lunacy." Do not use this nugget without proper attribution. (*Today's FSB/SVR)

Thanks Mr. Fancy Pants.

On with your rants!

By God, you have to admire someone who bumps his own post 27 seconds after having posted the first one!

Dear FPR,

Typically specious on your part, Counsellor.

I edited it significantly and didn't want you to miss it.

(My Pet Rock suggested that bit of persiflage. I told him it was kind of lame.)

Dear FPR,

Do you wish you'd been in Minneapolis yesterday so you could have shot that white, single-mom "domestic terrorist"?

Or do you prefer "domestic terrorists" of color?

Like those Somalis (or is it Salvadoreans?) who keep eating your pets?

How soon will you find some nutty way to link Putin and Russian intelligence to the ICE shooting in Minneapolis?

Just a friendly reminder that Trump-supporting JFKA conspiracy theorists belong to the 2/3 to 3/4 majority of Westerners who reject the lone-gunman theory. You might want to keep in mind that your view of the JFK case is shared by only 1/4 to 1/3 of the Western world.

What will you say when no one claims that the videos of the Minneapolis shooting have been altered?

[Tom Graves]

They aren't eating my pets, dearie. Even my Pet Rock is armed with a small but functional handgun made of petrified wood.

No, as an Arizonan I never wish I was in Minnesota for any purpose. Having now read about the incident, it sounds as though the unfortunate Poet Mom went into some sort of panic mode that cost her life - or, alternatively, that she actually did attempt to run down the ICE agents like some sort of crazed QAnon Shaman. I do not make light of the incident - a genuine tragedy, but I learned long ago that sane people Just Do What Armed Officers Tell Them to Do.

Dear FPR,

ICE agent Jonathan "Jon" Ross was standing on the side of the vehicle when he fired his first shot (through the windshield). Trying to avoid hitting him, she had already started turning to the right around the stupidly-left-open door of his vehicle at that point.

IMHO, he should be arrested and charged with murder.
