Fake News: “Near the White House”

It was a mile away from 1600 Penn, but the fake news had to find a way to make it about PDJT…

I couldn’t find it on any other news site but X which is listed here on another post by janetjanet998 and when I used that link it says CBS but when I look up news on google it is not listed.

No other articles are listed with any mention of this person and I wonder if they are looking to be certain, cautious or they are just not happy it is who he is.

So with apologies to Janetjanet998 I really wanted to try and get a legitamate reference here to be able to spread around the net.

No motive has been given for the shooting ...

Well, with a perp named Rahmanullah Lakanwal no motive needs to be given.

Wait a generation and it will be the most common name in Ireland.

Steve Lookner (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj24vW_NmBk) showed on a map that it was only 3 blocks away from the white house.

If it was at Farragut West Metro/Farragut Sq near 17th/I St Nw try maybe two [small] blocks from the White House and nowhere near a mile.

Given all the confusion following SloJo’s thoughtless withdrawal from Afghanistan, who knows what this guy’s real name is? He might not even be Afghani.

I’d wait a few days for confirmation, although I hope the alphabet agencies don’t.(Well, it’s Thanksgiving, and we’re short-handed, etc.)

Since Rahmanullah has Rahman—one of Allah’s names & attributes meaning “merciful” and “compassionate”—as a key part of his own name, then Rahmanullah Lakanwal’s slaughter of a man and a woman Guardsman is certainly painfully ironic.
