“They Lie and People Die”: Carnegie Mellon Professor Claims Trump Assassination Attempt was “Staged”

Carnegie Mellon University Professor Uju Anya has joined the ranks of academics spreading the conspiracy theory that the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump was “staged.” As for the killing and wounding of bystanders, Anya explained that “that’s exactly what they do.” We previously discussed other academics who have spread this conspiracy theory. However, few are willing to go as far as Professor Anya in explaining how the other victims were used to make the staging more plausible. Anya declared:

“It was staged. Like a stupid Tubi movie set in the Bronx with palm trees in the background. They lie, and people die. That’s exactly what they do

…That’s the record. Whatever ‘attack’ on him they set up to stoke his followers’ fears and sentiments threat and persecution has now cost lives.

…And people died behind this farce. Actual people’s lives gone for them to stage this stupid show. People dying doesn’t make the attack any less staged. Someone who thought the attack was real could’ve killed others trying to prevent harm. Also, someone could’ve shot the shooter to hide the plot.”

The faculty bio states that Anya is an Associate Professor of Second Language Acquisition. She describes herself as

“a scholar of language learning and Black experiences in multilingualism. My primary fields of inquiry are critical applied linguistics, critical sociolinguistics and critical discourse studies examining race, gender, sexual and social class identities in new language learning through the multilingual journeys of African American students.”

Likewise, in a now since-deleted Threads posting, Professor of Psychology at San Diego Mesa College Inna Kanevsky also fueled the baseless conspiracy theory. She posted

“‘He took a bullet for his country!’ No he didn’t. He took it, like everything else he took and keeps taking, for himself. For his own personal aggrandizement.”

Professor Anya has long been a controversial figure including her wish that Queen Elizabeth would die a long “excruciating” death. She later doubled down on the hateful statements.

She also tweeted out crude remarks about the 2022 elections: “contrary to all these major media outlets, the red wave coming is my period on Friday.”

So these and other faculty believe that Trump enlisted a kid who was thrown out of his high school shooting club as a bad shot to wing him at 130 yards from a sloped position. The conspiracists also decided to kill or wound some supporters to make the staging look real. In our age of rage, this all makes sense to these professors.

I agree with Professor Anya that such political statements are protected speech. However, her unhinged and hateful commentary exposes the radicalism of many faculty in higher education today.

  1. Freedom of speech is the freedom to dissent. An example of the exercise of this freedom is the Supreme Court of the United States. An issue is presented and arguments are civilly made. The Justices question and join the debate. They retire and discuss and think about the evidence presented, look back to earlier opinions and research any applications, interpretations and misapplications of the argument. They present their opinion as a majority and justices in disagreement present a dissent for the record. This is the meaning of freedom of speech expressed in the 1st amendment.

    Ms Uju presents an argument without much flesh. It is possible to offer a counter argument without addressing her motives unless her motives are an issue.

    There is some concern about the unprovable belief that God saved President Trump. This raises the belief that he is appointed by God himself and dangerous territory. It brings to mind the divine rights of King.

    It’s required that evidence is provable. An attempt was made on the life of president Trump a candidate for president, a public figure, allegedly by Mr. Crooks a very poor marksman. He missed. His motive is unknown.

    Since Ms Uju is interested in fabrications the FBI, CIA, The Biden regime, foreign governments were all involved in the attempt. Mr. Trump was whisked away after the attempt to a hospital with evil doctors who killed him. The person presenting himself today is an impostor and the reason for the personality change. Aliens from another universe are involved and the Republicans believe the head alien is God.

    Thank you

  2. Anyone can say anything is true or false on the internet. Normally, you need to have some proof. But it’s a new day. With Woke DEI no proof needed.
    if I start spreading the word on the Internet Uju Anya has sex with farm animals, do I need to show proof?

  3. This DEI ‘Professor’, early-tenured no less, was born and raised as a member of a minor tribe in a 3rd world {African} country, where they do indeed, “do politics” by killing and imprisoning their opponents. Perhaps this is why she feels so comfortable in the current DNC-BIDEN environment?

    BTW : Has anyone else noticed how many of these angry and violent commentators and professors are either not American {not naturalized citizens}, DEI hires, or both?

  4. This irrational conspiracy barking of the leftists in our midst is their copium…it’s all they have after all the egg on their faces by their own idiotic doings.

  5. That view is unbecoming anyone who would consider himself or herself as having an intellect. Moreover, it is nothing short of pathetic when one’s personal and political bias leads one to promote hate with such comments.

  6. One-Third Of Democrats Believe Trump Faked Assassination Attempt As Conspiracy Theory Goes Mainstream

    “On Monday, a Morning Consult poll found that 34% of Democrats think Trump faked his own assassination attempt last Saturday. Such left-wing conspiracy theorists have been referred to as “BlueAnon,” and as the Washington Free Beacon reports, this particular notion – that Trump faked the assassination attempt – originated with Democratic powerbroker Dmitri Mehlhorn, who has made at least 10 visits to the Biden White House.
    Hours after the shooting on Saturday, Mehlhorn – and adviser to LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman (who joked about assassinating Trump the week before the attempt) – sent a memo to reports suggesting they portray the shooting as a false-flag operation directly from Vladimir Putin’s playbook, designed to give Trump an iconic photo-op.”This is a classic Russian tactic, such as when Putin killed 300 civilians in 1999 and blamed it on terrorists to ride the backlash to winning power,”
    wrote Melhorn”

    Another withering indictment of the U. S. education system. Orwell is grinning from his grave… I am really hopeful that this nation can be restored to sanity without spilling blood, but pervasive idiocy of this magazine causes me to wonder if that is really possible 🙁

    1. The same one third that shoots up a horse tranquilizer and fentanyl concoction for a buzz. Democrats are dysfunctional psychopath victims.

    2. Yes, these same people most likely watch a TV program called “punkd”. They feel an attempt at punking has been perpetrated.
