The man suspected of carrying out two murderous attacks — one at Brown University that killed two students and wounded nine more, and another that killed the MIT professor in his Brookline home — was found dead in a storage unit in Salem, New Hampshire last night. The murderer apparently took the coward’s way out. Listening to the Providence press conference last night — it was followed by one featuring United States Attorney Leah Foley speaking about the murder of MIT Professor Nuno F.G. Loureiro — we learned that a witness who had confronted the murderer on the Brown campus provided the key to the breaking of the case

FTA: "In case we needed more fuel for our anger, it turns out that Valente was a beneficiary of our insane diversity visa program. The murderer was issued a diversity visa in 2017 and became a legal permanent resident of the United States that year, according to immigration records in the affidavit filed by the Providence police." But I thought that diversity is our strength. I guess it isn't.

I think the Brown killing was a diversion to the real target of the MIT assassination. Just a theory...but makes sense.

Well when you pack ultra-liberal Brown University that allowed a homeless person, named as John, to sleep in the basement of the University building where the murders at Brown took place, who essentially recently operated as an unofficial security person for the building and surrounding, who broke the case for Rhode Island law enforcement; with a foreign origin obvious “nut job” who was allowed to enter the USA apparently over twenty years ago as a foreign student to attend a graduate program at Brown, attended for a year or so, dropped out, and then apparently stayed in the USA, as an illegal alien? You get the seeds for what just happened. Then about 2017 the “nut job” was granted US Permanent Resident Alien (green card) status in accordance with the very liberal “diversity” US immigration lottery system that was designed to allow large numbers of foreign people to immigrate to the USA from countries that did not send large numbers of legal immigrants during past historic US legal Immigration that originated mainly from Europe, who could be mostly designed as minority group members once in the USA. He rendered himself to be a deportable alien by murdering and shooting US citizens and was ultimately found to have committed suicide in a rented storage unit in New Hampshire. Who actually knows what that “nut job’s” motive was, other than him holding “nut job” style grievances in his head against current Brown University students with who he was not acquainted, along with a Professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who was originally from the “nut job’s” home country of Portugal. In this case, obviously the ultimate losers turned out to be the families of the US citizens who were murdered by the “nut job”. Sounds crazy all around, but when you put all the above liberal garbage together that is what you got!

From CBS: Both the suspect and MIT professor Nuno Loureiro were from Portugal and attended the same university program there. In a statement, the Instituto Superior Técnico in Portugal confirmed that Neves Valente had been a student at its Institute for Plasmas and Nuclear Fusion, studying for a degree in Engineering Physics between 1995 and 2000. Loureiro took the course during the same period, the institute said. "My understanding is that they did know each other," Foley said. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/suspect-brown-university-mit-professor-shooting-claudio-manuel-neves-valente/

More: According to records from Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), the Portuguese engineering school, a person named Claudio Neves-Valente was terminated from a monitor position in February of 2000, the same year that Loureiro graduated from IST. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/person-of-interest-arrested-in-brown-shooting Valente enrolled in Brown's graduate program in 2000.

Once again it raises its ugly head to cause havoc and murder in our midst. I wonder if this "diversity" is of the trans-sexual nature, like the recent school and church shootings. All of these suspects had their motives hidden by the authorities for as long as possible.

Re #5. That press conference was certainly inept. The signer was ridiculous with her ludicrous facial grimacing. If the few deaf or hearing impaired are actually watching, they have a TV and surely it has closed captioning or it would be worthless to that person. Was it some kind of way to virtue signal how 'inclusive' the presser was? Signing wasn't needed and only distracted from the event.

My conspiracy theory: The killer had the motive of envy to kill the professor and was financed by the Iranians, who found common cause with the killer after the professor professed support for Israel. (BTW, I'm not convinced by the collection of New England area lame-brain FBI agents and keystone cops that the guy offed himself. He might have been offed by the Iranians after finishing "the job" for them in order to tie up the "loose ends" of the trail back to Iran.) The killer's actions at Brown appear to be murkier in motive; he had ill will toward Brown and it could be he just struck at the easiest targets he could find that would give the institution bad publicity... and in that he succeeded wildly... For why would any parents of academically-gifted children willingly permit them to go to MIT or Brown (or any Ivy League school, at this point)?

The Lancet, headquartered in Britain, was once a respected medical journal. Now, it is mostly a left-wing rag. The current issue, just out, leads with an editorial titled “2025: an annus horribilis for health in the USA.” Really? Our health has gone downhill? Has life expectancy declined? Was there an epidemic that I missed? No. The entire editorial is an anti-Trump screed. 2025 was a horrible year, not for Americans’ health, but for left-wing preferences in health care policy.

What’s in the Philippines? The Islamic State of East Asia.

There’s nothing ‘right-wing’ about defending the Bill of Rights. Being called “right-wing” or “fascist” is detestable. The label implies a preference for dictatorship, authoritarianism, and government supremacy over personal freedom. The exact opposite is true. I would describe myself as a supporter of autarchism in the sense that we should rule ourselves and not be ruled by others. As someone who believes strongly in individual liberty, self-reliance, and self-government, I distrust all repositories of power -- whether such power resides in government, corporations, or social institutions. As Lord Acton advised: “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” In my estimation, nothing in this physical world can be trusted with power

The revelation comes after two students were killed and nine others hurt in a mass shooting at the Ivy League school that has seen critics slam the institution for prioritizing image over safety. The engineering building where the shooting took place didn’t have a swipe-card mechanism and could be accessed by anyone through the public-facing coffee shop, students said. It didn’t have security officer posted at the front either, like some other buildings do, school officials have said.
