Former Biden staffer charged with murdering his girlfriend

Either he's a complete fool, or it wasn't an accident.

A former staffer to former alleged President Joe Biden shot and killed his girlfriend on March 24 in San Francisco. He was arrested the following day. Police arrived around 10:45 pm to discover that Samantha Emge, 22, was suffering from a gunshot wound. She died at the hospital. 

Nation Wood, 25, claims he was dry-firing a firearm, which led to the shooting. He has been charged with involuntary manslaughter (via Fox KTVU):

KTVU has learned that the man charged with involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of his girlfriend in San Francisco's Sunset District last week told police he was "dry-firing" a gun that went off and shot her while she was showering.

The suspect, Nation Wood, 25, is out on bail after San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins charged him in the March 24 shooting at 22nd Avenue and Santiago Street. A Superior Court judge set Wood's bail at $300,000. Wood pleaded not guilty at his arraignment on Friday.Dry firing a gun is when you pull the trigger of an unloaded firearm. But in this case, the firearm was primed when Samantha Emge, 22, a recent San Francisco State University graduate, was shot and killed.

When the story of the shooting first broke, District 4 Supervisor Alan Wong, a mayoral appointee, had said the discharge of the gun may have been unintentional.

Emge had worked in interior design, according to her LinkedIn profile.

Wood, who had also studied at San Francisco State University, worked in security, according to his LinkedIn profile. He was scheduled to leave San Francisco soon to serve in the National Guard.

He is now out on bail.

A week after the fatal shooting of his 22-year-old girlfriend, Samantha Emge, at their San Francisco Sunset District home, 25-year-old Nation Wood was in court on Wednesday.

"He is on electronic monitoring. His family posted bail. No weapons consent to warrant search and work with pre-trial services. All that he is going to do," said Paula Canny, Wood's attorney.Emge's parents and Nation Wood's dad were present. Wood appeared on Zoom from a hospital mental health unit. His attorney said he was admitted after posting $300,000 bail and is currently under psychiatric evaluation.

"We don't want to further compound this horrible tragedy by him ending his own life, which is what I think he wants to do now," said Canny.

This seems like a tragic accident, but we need more details. Did he forget to check his firearm? Where the hell was he doing this dry-firing exercise? Even if Wood checked and knew it was unloaded, you should not point it in any direction where someone could get shot. 

This is firearm safety 101, which anyone who owns a firearm, or knows anything about firearm safety already knows. Always treat a firearm as if it's loaded. The fact that he dry-fired it and pointed it at his showering girlfriend is just too convenient an excuse. 

I don't believe him . . . do you?

People supporting male athletes competing against females attack female swim champion who lost to male

Female swimming champion Riley Gaines was forced to barricade herself in a safe room Thursday after radical activists who support athletic competition of men, swarmed her. This criminal activity took place when Miss Gaines visited San Francisco State University to advocate for the rights of female athletes.

Gaines has highlighted the fact that these so called transgender women [aka mediocre athletic men] have an unfair biological advantage over women in sports requiring strength and/or speed. And since this is the United States of America, she has the right to fact-based opinion without having to fear for her safety from those who disagree.

Gaines, a former University of Kentucky star who was deprived of an NCAA award by a self-serving man named Lia Thomas, the University of Pennsylvania swimmer who claims to be female and competes against women, was at the school as part of a Turning Point USA event. 

Video on social media shows Gaines being hustled to safety by police officers as a mob of radical transgender activists follows her, shouting “Trans rights are human rights!”

Free speech is also human rights, but the left only feels that way when it supports their agenda.

“The prisoners are running the asylum at SFSU,” Gaines tweeted. “This is proof that women need sex-protected spaces. Still only further assures me I’m doing something right. When they want you silent, speak louder.”

Yes, as they say, if you're catching flak, you're over the target.

The prisoners are running the asylum at SFSU…I was ambushed and physically hit twice by a man. This is proof that women need sex-protected spaces.

Still only further assures me I'm doing something right. When they want you silent, speak louder. 🗣️ pic.twitter.com/uJW3x9RERf

Gaines began her speech on protecting female athletes from unfair competition when non-athletic, flabby-skinned, protesters burst into the room where she was speaking. As she was being escorted to safety, she was physically assaulted, she said.

“I’m OK currently, but an hour and a half later, I’m still barricaded in a room with ambushers on the outside yelling and threatening violence,” Gaines said. “As police escorted me out of the event space to my current location, I was hit, physically, twice by what I presume was a male individual. This only assures me I’m doing the right thing.”

It is unknown whether or not the male that hit her was on the female MMA team, but he hasn't been arrested and some Democrats are calling him brave.

It was unknow how long Ms. Gaines was barricaded in the room, but the event began at 7 p.m. local time, and at midnight, police were still dispersing the Marxists.

Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk blasted the protesters behind the ugly and cowardly incident.

“This is unacceptable at an American college campus, even in San Francisco,” Kirk tweeted. “Pray for Riley Gaines and for our brave students at SFSU.”

Gaines’s agent, Eli Bremer, said Gaines will not back down from the mob.

“Instead of a thoughtful discussion tonight at SFSU, Riley was violently accosted, shouted at, physically assaulted, and barricaded in a room by protestors. It is stunning that in America in 2023, it is acceptable for biological male students to violently assault a woman for standing up for women’s rights,” Bremer said in a statement. “This will not stop Riley from boldly educating people of the dangers of biological males in women’s sports. She will continue to speak the truth against the radical left that no longer understands the difference between men and women.”

The left simply cannot handle thoughtful discussion because their points are weak tea. 

Gaines, an All-American at the University of Kentucky and a five-time Southeastern Conference champion, tied the fully penised and testicled Thomas at last year’s NCAA championships. That's how mediocre and selfish Mr. Thomas is.

But things appear to be changing as real men see this sudden trans dominance against women in competition as unfair. In Canada, a bearded powerlifter entered a women's competition identifying as a woman. Previously, the record was held by a man who identified as a woman and he had been watching the competition from the sidelines.

Avi Silverberg

Avi Silverberg, the head coach for Team Canada Powerlifting for over 10 years, entered the Saturday's Heroes Classic tournament in Alberta, identifying as a woman and casually bench-pressed 370 pounds---beating the mediocre trans athlete by almost 100 pounds.

I say to Avi Silverberg, more power to him. It's about time a good guy shows a selfish trans athlete just how selfish they are to compete against women.

Finally, women athletes who find themselves in competition against men who claim they're women, ought to think twice about competing. It's easy for me to say since I'm not vying for a scholarship or money, but if women simply bowed out of these contests, something would have to be done.
