Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk encourages his young supporters at their summer gathering to "play a game" where they try to go "as far as they can" in an airport without a mask on - thus breaking the federal mandate.

Yep... an airport is definitely the right place to play stupid games & win stupid prices. Definitely. They're definitely gonna make their flights. And they're definitely not gonna get arrested. Yep. This is a spectacular idea.

If any of these young people actually take his advice, he should be brought up on charges.

Hope you did not want to ever go to college, rent a nice apartment, get a good job or ever see Paris. Or anything outside the United States.

It certainly wasn't his academic or intellectual prowess (he's a college dropout) that led Jerry to pair up with him and entwine their names in the so-called think tank Jerry founded and called "Falkirk" at Liberty University. I bet young Charlie thought up some swell games to keep them entertained...

Letting your political enemies stand around fouling up the works while you try making massive political change is a sure way to get no change.

We can’t do it the way Robespierre did it (we’re a little short on guillotines, for one thing) but there needs to be some way to convince the Charley Kirks of the world to just shut the fuck up.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jade_Helm_15_conspiracy_theories

The conspiracy theories seem to emanate from the map shown here from the U.S. Army Special Operations Command which divides the region into four colors, with two "hostile" states, two "permissive" states, two states leaning one way or the other, and California divided.[17] Jim Shea of the Hartford Courant's wrote that the conspiracy theories included: a "psychological operation aimed at getting people used to seeing military forces on the streets" so that they do not realize when an invasion actually takes place; an international operation aimed to seize people's guns; recently closed Walmarts used by the military to "stockpile supplies for Chinese troops who will be arriving to disarm Americans"; and a military plan to "round up political dissidents" and "remove key political figures" who may be against the imposition of martial law.[18] Other theories have described Jade Helm 15 as a "secret plot" to impose martial law, confiscate firearms, invade Texas, and institute "total population control."[19]

The conspiracy theories also included concern about the name of the exercise, with the "jade" possibly referring to China,[20][21] or possibly an acronym for artificial intelligence developed by the U.S. military.[22] Conspiracy theorist and Texas radio host Alex Jones said that "helm" is an acronym for "Homeland Eradication of Local Militants".[19]

There was some tie-in between the Jade Helm 15 exercise and a resurgence of the FEMA camps conspiracy theory with the exercise raising fear that it was a dry run for forcing citizens into internment camps.[23] These fears were demonstrated to have been unfounded when the exercise was completed and no one was placed into a camp.[24]
