The victim also said that Fournier got on top of her as he hit her, and she needed to defend herself. She mentioned that Fournier had a knife at his side, but that he did not swing or point it at her.

1. And this surprises you exactly how?

They're trash, I tell you. All of them. It's to be expected.

[yardwork]

2. What a surprise.

[Karasu]

3. The future of the Republican Party, folks. Anyone who thinks "normalcy" is a remote possibility after this shitshow is a

fool.

[bigtime]

13. Truth

Sadly

[Deuxcents]

4. And their lack of civility or that women are the reason for being rejected is solely due to their entitlement

And behavior. People, in general, don’t want to associate with Neanderthals

[generalbetrayus]

22. Please don't insult Neanderthals. There is evidence they were advanced over people like this bozo.

[tanyev]

5. It's like all the people who strongly support him are violent thugs.

It was not Fournier's first arrest. In November 2023, he was arrested in North Carolina and charged with assault on a female and assault with a deadly weapon after allegedly striking his then-girlfriend with a pistol. Those charges were dropped.

Fournier also announced on LinkedIn that he had taken a role as Deputy Director of Public Affairs at the U.S. Department of Justice under President Trump. The day after his latest arrest, he was back on X pushing immigration enforcement. "ICE should never pull back," he posted at 12:59 a.m. "Arrest, and deport."

7. Damn, he needs more than anger management counseling.

Maybe his emotional regulation would improve with drugs or a lobotomy? I'd settle for him having mandatory whatever while he's in prison for a long time.

[FoxNewsSucks]

10. I think castration would also be a good idea.

[Figarosmom]

8. Sounds like today's repub😶

[ChicagoTeamster]

9. This is his second or third domestic battery arrest against a woman. And he founded misogynists for Trump.

[Cha]

11. Students for Violence. Fascist Fucks.

Looks like he beat up the wrong woman.

[blm]

12. Isn't he touring this summer?

[Zelda_Orchid]

14. .

[Midnight Writer]

15. Relax, everyone. He's just auditioning for a Trump Cabinet position.

Sexual and domestic abuse, racism and he-man woman-hating are the top items on submitted resumes.

[Karasu]

16. "Fournier also announced on LinkedIn that he had taken a role as Deputy Director of Public Affairs at the Department

of Justice.”

Unsurprisingly, he already had one. After all, this is the same regime that appointed all the unqualified DOGE kids with no questions asked.

This guy has been extremely influential among young Republicans for quite a few years now.

[H2O Man]

17. Recommended.

It would seem that enough of the maga cult has been arrested for serious crimes that proper society would fully reject them.

[AZLD4Candidate]

18. You gotta keep your woman on her choke chain and in her place. Republican family values

Woman, cook my food, clean the shitstains out of my underwear, and make my babies!

[Aussie105]

19. "Do You Want To Die Today?"

Don't the police or ICE have a copyright on that phrase, or something?

[Grins]

20. Ryan Fournier has been a Reich-wing shit for years.

Still, surprising this happens so often with Republican men…

[OldBaldy1701E]

21. Paging Hammurabi! Paging Mr. Hammurabi! (n/t)

[Blumancru]

23. What do you do with a drunken incel

Earlay in the Morning.

[AZ8theist]

24. MAGAT INCEL

Fuck him.

[bluestarone]

25. Bastard!! How can these type fuckers c0ntinue to hurt or threaten woman

an still walk the streets! TSF has allowed this behavior to flourish!!
