Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your support allows me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.
In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

This story has been updated. Please check the link.
I’ve seen the update. However, I have refrained from updating my link because if you click through, you will see that though the victim has “recanted” his testimony, it is very unclear what this means. I await more information.
It means this was a hoax. It is always disgusting when people pull a hoax like this. While this type of thing happens all the time on the left, it looks like the right is not immune, which is disappointing.
So far the republican candidate has had nothing to do with this and is in no way implicated in it.
What I can not understand would be why would the young man pull something like this?
The candidate he is working for stands a good chance of winning. He didn’t need any kind of stunt like this to gain votes.
I just hope this young man didn’t plan this the whole time he was working with the republican candidate just to cast dispersions on him this close to the election.
At best the rep candidate can only say he is sorry this happened and hopes the young man gets the medical help he needs both physically and mentally.
Implying the young man has a mental problem is the only thing he can do.
