The Week In Pictures: Party of Peace Edition
Posted By: Hazymac, 9/20/2025 7:19:59 AM
This was the week when the Democrats resumed their mantle as the party of peace, assuring the rest of us that things would be fine if conservatives would just stop murdering each other. And Jimmy Kimmel joined Stephen Colbert in the unemployment line, at least for now. Remarkably, it wasn’t because he hasn’t said anything funny in a decade. Kimmel’s suspension gave Democrats the opportunity to tell us they have always been the party of free speech. As long as the speech was theirs. It was a week of unparalleled gaslighting, and thus a target-rich environment for memesters. Here goes:

The pieces of this puzzle are starting to come together, and what emerges is a picture that makes perfect sense when viewed through the lens of raw self-interest. Hunter Biden, a man who has spent decades leveraging his father's position for personal gain, may have personally engineered his own presidential pardon.
Why do I think this may have been the case? Well, Biden’s former chief of staff, Jeff Zients, revealed during his House Oversight Committee testimony this week that Hunter Biden wasn't just sitting on the sidelines during those crucial final weeks of his father's presidency—he was actively participating in pardon discussions, attending multiple meetings with White House aides.
The city of Chicago has a crime problem. Everyone knows it, including Chicago's mayor, Brandon Johnson, and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker.
Pritzker himself said crime is just a part of big city life, just after a bloody Labor Day weekend where 54 people were shot and seven were killed. Mayor Johnson took a more theological approach, saying jailing criminals is "racist, unholy and doesn’t lower violent crime rates."
That was on August 25, a week before all the mayhem in Chicago. We're now halfway through September, and Mayor Johnson continues to object to putting criminals in prison. (X) As one X user said, "Imagine saying that to the families

The new liberal website, The Argument, conducted an interesting poll of Trump 2024 supporters, Harris 2024 supporters, and those who didn't vote.
One question was about free speech on campus.
"For each of the following, do you believe they should be allowed to give a speech at a college campus?"
Nearly 50% of Trump voters would oppose a transgender rights activist speaking on campus. 86% of Harris voters would support it.
Nearly 55% of Harris voters would oppose Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu giving a talk. 63% of Trump voters would support it.
Over 67% of Trump voters would oppose a Palestinian activist who calls for the abolition of Israel. 53% of Harris voters
Sometimes good can come out of tragedy. So it seems that in the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk this country might finally come to terms with certain violent extremist groups in our midst.
On Wednesday, President Trump said that he was willing to designate Antifa (“a sick, dangerous, radical left disaster”) as “a major terrorist organization.”
The move cannot come soon enough.
Despite the claims of Jimmy Kimmel and others, it is clear that the sick young man who assassinated Charlie Kirk last week was not a “MAGA Republican.” He is a young man from a Republican family who veered to the radical left, started living with a lover who

Here goes:
Is it really too much to ask that a murdered young man be given the dignity of a proper burial before bad-faith opportunists attempt to posthumously rewrite his legacy to better serve their own nefarious ends? Is it really too much to ask that a murdered young man's family and friends -- to say nothing of the countless individuals whose lives the young man touched and inspired -- be allowed to mourn in peace, without having to fend off charlatans seeking to hijack his memory to advance their pet crusades?
Apparently, the answer is: Yes, it is.

Kamala Harris Admits That She’s an Idiot

I know we’re all anxious not to read Kamala Harris’s upcoming tell-all book, 107 Days, but the excerpts we've seen so far have been quite hilarious. Between throwing Joe Biden and Tim Walz under the bus, one can’t help but wonder who she was going to throw under the bus next.
It turns out that she threw herself under the bus.
Kamala sat down on The View for another softball interview during her campaign, and the hosts asked her the most predictable question in politics. What would she have done differently from Joe Biden?
Any competent politician worth her salt would have had this answer rehearsed, polished,
ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel reportedly refused to apologize for remarks that landed him in hot water and planned to further tear into Donald Trump supporters, insisting they "purposefully twisted" his words, before he was taken off the air by Disney executives.
Disney on Wednesday sidelined Kimmel "indefinitely" on the heels of controversial comments the late-night host made about the assassination of conservative icon Charlie Kirk. The move came as Disney faced mounting pressure from ABC affiliate stations around the country, as well as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), setting off a national debate around free speech and alleged censorship.
Kimmel had planned to address the controversy in his Wednesday monologue,
When one examines the American political left, there is one name that keeps popping up. This name is never found on a ballot or on a roster of campaign workers and advisors, but like the proverbial bad penny, the name keeps coming up. The people who bear that name dump millions into leftist causes. They get catch-and-release judges and prosecutors elected. They fund the campaigns of leftist municipal and state candidates. There's no left-wing cause so crazy, so lunatic, that they won't pour money into it.
That name: Soros. Now we learn that old George Soros is dumping $10 million into supporting Governor Gavin Newsom's redistricting scheme.
The national conversation we need to have right now is not about free speech.
The conversation we need to have is about the normalization of political violence on the left. We need to be talking about left-wing Antifa/trans terrorists gunning down Christians in broad daylight while Democrats and the corporate press justify it and the online left celebrates it.
That’s the only conversation that matters right now. The manufactured outrage over ABC canceling Jimmy Kimmel’s show is an attempt to change the conversation, to flip the script so that instead of talking about the first major political assassination in America in sixty years, instead of talking about the mainstream left’s embrace
The House of Representatives passed a resolution on Friday condemning political violence and honoring Charlie Kirk, but nearly a hundred Democrats refused to support it. The final tally was 310-58, with every Republican voting in favor and 96 Democrats either voting against it or refusing to take a stand at all by voting present. That raw number is impossible to ignore: Close to 100 Democrats balked at denouncing political violence when the resolution also praised Kirk’s legacy.
This becomes even more striking when you remember what happened just a few months ago.

Acting United States Attorney for Minnesota Joe Thompson called a press conference for 11:00 a.m. yesterday morning. I attended the press conference along with several other reporters to hear his statement and ask a few questions.
Thompson called the press conference to announce indictments and criminal complaints in eight new fraud cases against “Minnesota men” with such resonant names as Mokhtar Hassan Aden, Mustafa Dayib Ali, and Khalid Ahmed Dayib. Aden founded the company Brilliant Minds Services LLC and operated it with Ali and Dayib out of the Griggs-Midway Building on University Avenue in St. Paul. The business model was built on defrauding Minnesota’s first-in-the-nation Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services program.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) claimed that just because people commit crimes, it “doesn’t make them a criminal,” adding that it depends on the person’s “mindset.”
During an interview with “genderqueer” Netflix star Jonathan Van Ness, Crockett was asked about having worked as a public defender, and what she wished that “people knew.” Crockett responded by explaining that when you are “assigned to only deal with indigent people” you end up learning “a lot about yourself.”
“It’s just understanding what ends up having people become criminally impacted really informs so much of what I do legislatively, right?”
Progressive New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is eyeing a run for president in 2028, according to a report Friday.
The socialist “Squad” member is gearing up to seek higher office as she’s attempted to grow her presence across the country and the Empire State, people familiar with her operation told Axios in a Friday report.
Ocasio-Cortez and her team are deciding on whether to run for the Senate or the White House, sources told the outlet.

French First Lady Brigitte Macron will present photographic evidence to a U.S. court to prove she is a woman as part of her defamation lawsuit against Candace Owens.
Mrs Macron and her husband, President Emmanuel Macron, filed suit in July over “substantial reputational damage” against Owens addressing what they called repeated “falsehoods” that Mrs Macron is in fact secretly a man, as Breitbart News reported.
Owens has propagated unsubstantiated claims the first lady was born male and used to go by the name Jean-Michel Trogneux — who in reality is Mrs Macron’s older brother.
Traditionally, it’s called “the people’s house” because the House of Representatives is supposed to represent and reflect the people to whom the congressional members represent. Republicans in the House threatened to withhold votes if Speaker Mike Johnson did not pass an enhanced House Member Security Funding Bill that includes a payment of $25,000/month per lawmaker to hire their own private security. This is in addition to the pre-existing security packages the House members receive.
The monthly funds would be designated for use hiring private security when the representatives are not in Washington DC. It is the republican wing pushing this demand.
President Donald Trump's $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times has been tossed, for now.
Calling the president's 85-page lawsuit "decidedly improper and impermissible," a federal judge in Tampa threw it out on Friday and gave him 28 days to file a new complaint that had to be under 40 pages.
U.S. District Judge Steven D. Merryday blasted the Trump suit for alleging only two acts of defamation, yet "Count I appears on page eighty, and Count II appears on page eighty-three." He also criticized the suit's flowery descriptions about Trump and overly political language, writing a complaint is not a "public forum for vituperation
Nearly 60 House Democrats on Friday voted down a resolution honoring the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk — including “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who accused the slain conservative activist of being a “bigot.”
Four of the Dems who voted “nay” hail from New York — AOC, Yvette Clarke, Adriano Espaillat, and Nydia Velazquez — and three represent New Jersey: Reps. Robert Menendez, Bonnie Watson Coleman and LaMonica McIver.
The resolution condemned “in the strongest possible terms” the assassination of the Turning Point USA co-founder and commended law enforcement for arresting and charging Kirk’s alleged killer.
In a recent social media post, an Oberlin student called for a return to “political assassinations” following conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s death last week, when he was shot and killed while speaking at a Utah university. Oberlin College and Conservatory President Carmen Twillie Ambar confirmed Thursday that Julia Xu attends the college. “Last week, an Oberlin student published a personal social media post that glorified political assassinations and incorrectly linked this ideology to the perspective of a faculty member,”... “The student has subsequently issued a public apology and expressed deep regret.” Ambar said that the comments do not reflect the college and conservatory.

Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano on Friday walked back his remark made earlier in the day that raising the retirement age was among the entitlement reforms being considered by the Trump administration.
In an interview with Fox Business, host Maria Bartiromo asked Bisignano if he’d consider increasing the age for full federal retirement benefits, which currently stands at 67.I think everything’s being considered and will be considered,” he said.
Bisignano noted that any change recommended by Social Security trustees — a group that also includes Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — would need congressional approval.
Members of Chicago's law enforcement community are taking offense with a comment made by Mayor Brandon Johnson, after he said this week, in part, "jails and incarceration and law enforcement is a sickness."

Some argued that Johnson's words were taken out of context.
