Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, whose insurrectionist tendencies would have made him most welcome in the Antebellum South, is nothing if not forceful in his defense of radical Antifa rioters against federal law enforcement officers — but will a new revelation force him to back down?
The question is rhetorical because who am I kidding? But today's news shows just how far Antifa's communist insurrections might be willing to go toward making Chicago — and maybe the country — completely ungovernable.
Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, as PJ Media's own Rick Moran reported on Tuesday, perform "in a two-man play" of local resistance

If you'll recall, back in early September, after the president ordered the U.S. military to begin striking Venezuelan drug boats in the Caribbean, the country's illegitimate narco-terrorist leader, Nicolás Maduro, got scared and wrote a letter to "Respected President Donald Trump." In it, he told a bunch of lies and half-truths about his peaceful regime that is totally not a cartel and that is actually fighting the war on drugs. He also begged for continued diplomacy talks through Special Envoy Richard Grenell.
On Monday evening, the New York Times reported that President Donald Trump "called off diplomatic outreach to Venezuela" and stated that "The move paves the way

Things are not going well for Jay Jones. Maybe he could have survived his disgusting comments about a fellow legislator and that person's wife and children. But then yesterday we learned that Jones had previously made similar comments about police officers, suggesting that if a few more cops were shot and killed, they wouldn't be as likely to shoot people.
If you missed this, I wrote about it yesterday. Unfortunately the earlier conversation about police wasn't over text messages so we don't have the proof it happened. Jones denied it, but the story is coming from the same Republican lawmaker who those other texts were sent to.

The dominance of a single political party in any region is, shall we say, suboptimal. Monopolies tend to breed laziness, corruption, and leaders who feel entitled to unearned deference.
The safer a politician feels, the more likely they are to abuse their power, like Joe Biden, or to abuse others, like...Katie Porter. (X) Porter has never been a pleasant person, nor a high achiever, except in the sense of building a resume. Coming from a class that equates credentials with achievement, her Phillips Academy to Yale to Harvard to Law Clerk to Academia to Congress path looks very impressive to them. And, perhaps at a time when

Democrats in 2025 are looking to their forebears in 1861 and Governor Wallace in 1963, standing in the schoolhouse door, defying federal officials trying to enforce federal law. (X) They are even resorting to the same excuses they did when they were defending slavery and segregation: state sovereignty and states' rights. (X) At least they are acting consistently with a brand they established long ago, although I have to note that in many of the intervening years, they have been very inconsistent about applying this principle. Their attitude is more "states' rights for me, but not for thee." (X) There is a serious flaw in the "state's rights" argument,

Former Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Jack Smith as Special Counsel to do his share of the Biden administration’s dirty work in the January 6 and Mar-a-Lago documents cases. The appointment document is posted online on Smith’s page in the Department of Justice online archives here.
Thanks to the relentless digging of Senator Chuck Grassley, yesterday it was revealed that the FBI spied on eight GOP senators during its sweeping anti-Trump probe related to the January 6 Capitol riot. Brooke Singman broke the story for Fox News Digital. NR’s James Lynch provides useful background here.

There's a saying that goes, "If you want to make a conservative mad, lie to him. If you want to make a leftist mad, tell him the truth." Truer words were never spoken. The Left has abandoned reason for rage, choosing violence over debate or even discussion. Democrats are not only unwilling to civilly engage conservatives -- they're increasingly unable to. They're resorting to threats, fantasies of murder, violence, and even support for such extremism. The pattern is clear, it's damning and it's time to call it out and demand accountability.

Soon after the assassination of Charlie Kirk at the hands of a deranged leftist, President Donald Trump took the long-overdue step of designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
As part of that order, Trump declared, “All relevant executive departments and agencies shall utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations — especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa.”
In a show of defiance against the new order, Antifa thugs assaulted a federal building in Eugene, Oregon, pounding on doors and harassing employees. Law enforcement dispersed the group and detained five of the besiegers. While the initial response was decisive,

“I don’t know what you mean by ‘glory,’” Alice said. (Snip) In the past, I’ve talked about the left's deliberate shift of language, but I’ve never mentioned the foundational shift I’m going to talk about now. This one is different. It doesn’t just twist one word or one idea — it changes the ground we stand on.
This shift attacks logic itself. It strikes at the roots of reasoning, the process by which we decide what is true. It happened quietly and almost no one saw it occur.
The term critical thinking has been redefined.
For decades, parents were told schools would teach their children to “think critically.”

Environmental activist Greta Thunberg has reportedly told officials from her native Sweden that she is being held in a bug-infested cell with little food or water and is being made to hold Israeli flags for photos.
Thunberg, 22, was one of 437 activists, parliamentarians and lawyers who set out from Europe to deliver aid to Gaza by breaching Israel's 16-year maritime blockade of the enclave as part of the Freedom Flotilla, comprised of more than 40 vessels.
Between Wednesday and Friday, Israel's navy intercepted all the boats and arrested every person onboard while in international waters.
Most of them are being held in the Ansar III prison, a high-security facility

With the government shutdown, Democrat politicians are in rare form these days.
The talking points of the Left this week are that the shutdown fight is necessary, or 50,000 people will die, and 15 million people will lose health coverage, and 20 million will see their health insurance premiums double.
Politicians always like using superlatives; it makes them feel important.
And there’s no time like a government shutdown for speaking in superlatives.
Even without exaggerating, the numbers they have to work with are enormous. The federal government employs about 3 million people, making it the nation’s largest employer, almost double the size of Walmart’s 1.5 million,

The movie posters of James Bond pictures usually featured an armed 007, surrounded by a montage of exotic locations, villains, lairs, action scenes, gadgets, and the alluring heroines. (X, X, X, X) There were also the minimalist posters that only featured the film's leading actor, in a dinner jacket, posing with his Walther PPK. Occasionally, even the villains participated in posing for similar stills. All these posters conveyed a message that Bond is a steadfast proponent and protector of the West. He was also an aspirational figure -- a fearless patriot who enjoyed the luxuries that men dream of.
The posters were in synch with the minimalist, mysterious,
