The FBI was previously alerted about Barakat in 2021 after there were concerns about his mental state and his access to a “significant number of firearms,” according The AP.


The FBI can’t be everywhere all at once. They were covered up with school board meetings, infiltrating the Catholic Church, creating fake White Nationalist groups, and arresting everyone who was within a quarter mile of the Capital on Jan. 6.

Mainstream Media censors news like this from reaching the masses to any appreciable level. MSM is an arm of the Deep State, so…


Remember when we all used to laugh about the North Korea media stories about Kim Jong and his 18 holes in one? Yeah, we can no longer laugh. We have state run media in the US too now.

Yea I know how to scroll. Not once did they say anything about the amount of guns and ammo he had and that he was planning a mass killing.

It's CNN. No reason to defend the enemy of the people

The CNN article is from the 15th, which was several days before most of the other links. The other articles from the 15th don’t have that information as well. Seems like there was less info available at that point.

There are hundreds of more articles about this. Regional media covered it too. Hell, the Knoxville paper covered this.

The idea that the MSM ignored this story is demonstrably false

Compare the coverage to a garage door pull that vaguely resembles a noose

I think the point is not that there was no news coverage, but that there was very little hand wringing about the root cause. It wasn’t discussed incessantly on every morning program or tweeted about endlessly. Don’t recall any statements from our commander in chief either.

So the goalpost has been moved from “The MSM ignored this story because he’s Muslim and the victims were white” to “I think the media covered another story more than this one prove me wrong”



It’s hilarious - the people who claim to never read the MSM then claim the MSM ignore stories and when proven wrong have to move the goalpost to “MSM should’ve ran more stories”

Y’all stay outraged

That's still the same story. Putting it on cnns website and letting it get buried in the news is the same as not covering it.

Are we really trying to argue here that the msm treats all stories equal regardless of race/religion?

Never mentioned the shooter was from Syria. The article focused on the use of a binary trigger on his weapon. I’m not quoting or linking because I don’t want to give them any extra clicks.

Glad ole boy mag dumped that POS. I’m wondering if he was jacked up on meth. Dude took 15 or so rounds. It was common in Iraq for haji’s to get high before they go out to fight.

Most people applying for tourist visas into the US from countries that have high % of visa overstays usually have almost zero chance to obtain a tourist visa into the US. My question is, why isn't the same done for people trying to come into the US from terrorist countries or I hate America countries?

Holy shite.

Everyone who thinks shooting a suspect multiple times is unnecessary and uses number of times the criminal was shot as some sort of excessive force argument needs to watch this video.
