If it was real, ICE would have rationalized some idiotic reason to gun her down.

A serial liar. And a convicted felon. And an adjudicated rapist. And likely a child molester and a murderer. Who has gone bankrupt six times. And sh!ts his pants. Then lies some more. Serial adulterer too. Did we mention the lying?

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Compulsively so. He is also a convicted felon, a serial cheater, an adjudicated rapist, a war criminal, a pedophile, and likely a murderer.

So he won't mind if a Governor or a Democratic peer, or a professional journalist with skill, etc., pays him a visit. You know, to reassure constituents.

The IndyCar Freedom 250 is slated to run August 23rd through the streets of DC. Here is a proposed livery I'm willing to help fund for some cash-strapped team.

The first news my eyes saw was that Lindsey Graham crossed the rainbow bridge in a big hurry. The irony of that while his party props up Mitch McConnell with a stick and goes full Weekend at Bernie's is a golden-hued level of karmatic WTAF. It's as though news writing has been fully relegated to AI.

The best question for a real journalist to ask Trump: "Mr. President, Graham Platner dropped out of the Maine Senate race based on allegations of sexual assault. Should you continue as President based on your sexual assault conviction, rejected appeals and judgement to the victim?"

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

If we're not standing for sexual assault, how is DJT still in office?

Straight up Nazi sh!t. Unapologetically. This cartoon regime must be brought to a close now, before anyone else is hurt.

When I was a much younger male, I always paid attention to the word "no" or any other subtle hesitancy. In other words, I was a gentleman. My preference was always carnal bliss with young ladies who were equally and mutually enthusiastic about it. It worked fine for several decades.

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

If a large portion of America is demanding Eric Swalwell get out of the California Governor race based on allegations, when do we get the President out of office for actually being convicted of sexual abuse, not to mention all the other felonies?

Did I miss the part in the SOTU where the President honored Jesse Jackson for his lifetime of civil rights activism and asked his widow and children to take a bow? Was it before or after Erika dabbed at a tear?

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 23/02/2026

Seriously. If Trump was canine and not human (physically, not emotionally), would we not have humanely euthanized it by now?

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 06/02/2026

Responsible state governments should proactively activate their national guards and surround each polling location, allowing zero federal interference. Period.

Why is Greg Bovino dressed like a Nazi, and what does DSP stand for again? Dip Sh!t Propaganda? When do we end this?

When does he look up from all the crazy spouting and say "...live from New York, it's Saturday Night Live?"

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 20/01/2026

He must be removed now, by whatever means are necessary. His mental derangement is in full public view.

Wonder if Kristi is pissed because he didn't also shoot the dog?

Real life (and journalism) is far more challenging. Look on the bright side. Mike Lindell could be elected the next governor of Minnesota!

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

He should enroll in a credible school offering reputable journalism degrees and try to graduate before rousing any more rabble. Programming to susceptible clickers who share biases merely harvests low-hanging fruit.

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

No attribution for content was offered, nor was any verification to support any claims. It was, symbolically, just video featuring the plugging of power strips into themselves and then expecting voltage. Nick Shirley still has a lot of maturity to unearth.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Nick could not be bothered to investigate, much less present findings from ten previous official hearings on the topic of fraud by the state. Again, no one was ever identified. Supportable proof of anything was absent 100% of the time.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

The lone unidentified legislative committee member Nick ambushed described hearings that have taken place, political reasons why more rapid anti-fraud measures cannot be taken and stated an obvious point about bad actors involved with fraud in every state.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Predictable “Tim Walz is crooked” tropes were repeatedly flogged. There was even an unidentified man-on-the-street parroting exasperation over all the perceived fraud. Also cued was a flamboyant, emotional, dark-tinged, anonymous “victim” at the very end, joining the torch and pitchfork brigade.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Where and how did David get all his waved paper? What is the audit trail basis for the fraudulent money ticker? Where is a companion website so Mr. or Mrs. John Q can review salient corroborating material independently at their leisure?

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Acting professionally allows for editorial creativity, but alleged crime must be fully vetted, explained, and comprehensively documented, including sources. Dots must be connected instead of merely implied using an arbitrary chart with unidentified circles.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Nick no doubt relishes a twisted reality that commands the short attention of federally appointed bug-eyed and dimwitted reality show contestants Kash Patel and Kristi Noem, both of whom enthusiastically piled on to Shirley’s evidence-free barrage of steaming dung.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Still, many impressionable viewers often conflate loudly shouted bullet points on camera with proof. If aping orange-hued, demented, oral diarrhea centered around retribution and woke-free racist islamophobia were not enough,

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Nick uses David primarily to parrot conspiracy theories and wave papers around while playing what-if games and citing random state statutes. Neither ever offers any sources, attribution, or authenticity verification for even a single sheet of furiously fluttered paper. None. Zero.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Curious rational thinkers openly wonder who the “David” character is. What is David’s last name? What are his qualifications? Professional background? Is he just called David because some dark-skinned immigrant with no business in America might try to kill him, too?

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

It is far easier to make whacky, random cuts, insert clips into odd locations, throw unrelated photos onto the screen, spout wholly unverified conspiracy theories non-stop, and cosplay actual journalism without practicing it, much less truthfully.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

If Nick Shirley embraced honesty, he would have ambushed physical sites during normal business hours on weekdays. But Nick is not honest. He even attempted to lie his way into some of his ensnared sites on camera using an imaginary son, “Joey.”

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

What serious journalist throws in live spots for OpusClip and Blackline Security while openly grifting donations to ensure his own “security” for being so “brave?” Who does he think he is? Charlie Kirk?

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Would any serious journalist ever utter the words “like and subscribe” in any important story intended to convey gravitas? Could any YouTuber with scandal excavation on their minds draw a line between performance art and facts and then NOT completely ignore it?

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

The notion that Nick Shirley fancies himself an “independent journalist” is absurd, indicative of a chronic inability to get hired for any real job that does not include asking random customers whether they would like fries with that.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Did Shirley take the advice of Bari Weiss, fellow right-wing content creator and Peter-principled president of CBS News, who openly advocates getting official viewpoints from all sides on the record? What’s that? No?

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

Would any of the “evidence” Nick presented pass muster in any ethical courtroom, much less a newsroom? Can he produce receipts? Is there credible corroboration? Were any of his ambushed subjects identified by name or title? Did anyone agree to go on the record?

110

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

If forced at gunpoint to compliment him, kudos for gushy enthusiasm borne of youthful naivety would follow. The unfettered gullibility he inspires among clickers who should know better but steer completely clear of sense is also impressive. Everything else flunks elementary school journalism class.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

The linear orientation on which society relied for the consumption of faithfully unbiased news (regulated until Reagan) has nearly reached a vestigial state of disconnected nostalgia. Shirley, like other mostly clueless but wildly priapistic YouTube creators, craves clicks and demands attention.

110

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

My college and professional careers centered around journalism and media or adjacent fields. When it began, there was no accessible internet. By retirement in 2016, the formula for information dissemination completely changed.

110

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

His young brain fancies itself worthy of FOX News, but could not pass cable access muster. Digestion of Shirley’s content about this subject requires an hour or so of painful muddling that you will never get back.

100

John T Howard @johnthoward500.bsky.social · 30/12/2025

The decaying corpse of Mike Wallace has more ethics, credibility, integrity, and talent than Nick Shirley has alive. Nick, however, is undeterred in his charming crusade of fact-free foolishness laughingly positioned as investigative journalism.
