Thank you to all the idiots who thought it would be a good idea to go through four more years of this.
Quote:Trump peddles false conspiracy theories tying Clintons to several deaths
Among a litany of social media posts shared by Donald Trump on Saturday, the sitting president dredged up a 2016 video rehashing old, false claims implying that former president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton are tied to several deaths.
The video, overlaid with the caption, “THE VIDEO HILLARY CLINTON DOES NOT WANT YOU TO SEE,” perpetuates the long-standing “Clinton body count” conspiracy theory, which claims that the Clintons are responsible for the deaths of several individuals who could be seen as political opponents. The claims, however, are false.
A narrator in the video that Trump shared points out that John F. Kennedy Jr. died in a plane crash while seen as the Democratic front-runner in a New York Senate race, which Hillary Clinton eventually won.
The video also refers to the killing of Clinton White House intern Mary Mahoney, who was shot during an attempted robbery at a Washington Starbucks when she tried to grab the shooter’s gun, according to the shooter’s testimony. The false implication of the video shared by Trump, by contrast, is that the Clintons were somehow involved.
As of Saturday afternoon, the video had been shared more than 6,000 times from Trump’s Truth Social account. It was also shared by the official X account for Trump’s political operation.
Representatives for Trump, Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton did not respond to requests for comment.
This isn’t the first time Trump has tried to tie the Clintons to baseless murder theories.
In 2019, for example, Trump spread an unfounded theory on social media suggesting that financier Jeffrey Epstein’s death might be tied to Bill Clinton. Trump’s Justice Department announced that Epstein died by “apparent suicide” while held in a federal detention center in New York.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
