After it came to light that Jay Jones, the Democratic nominee for Virginia’s attorney general, had fantasized about killing a political opponent and his children, some were surprised that other Democrats didn’t condemn him. No one should have been surprised. Because what Jones said is a widely shared belief among Democrats these days. According to National Review, which broke the explosive Jones story, he told a colleague that “the only way public policy changes is when policymakers feel pain themselves, like the pain that parents feel when they watch their children die from gun violence.” He was referring to a

Democrats = Bolsheviks Their natural tendency (Civil War, slavery, KKK. Jim Crow, Segregation, Lynchings, Solid South, George Wallace, Lester Maddox, Bill Ayers, Bernadette Dohrn, SDS, Weathermen, BLM, Antifa) is VIOLENCE. It is in their DNA.

The problem is that our schools have failed to teach our children that while violence does indeed create social change, the change it creates is never good. A study of history shows that every time violence has good results, the violence follows social change. Or the violence was for some completely unrelated motivation and the good social change was merely an unintended consequence. For example, WWII ended the Holocaust, but ending the Holocaust played no role in why the victors fought. Another example, the U.S. Civil War ended slavery in the United States, but ending slavery was not one of the reasons which the U.S. government fought the war to achieve...the social change which led to the abolition of slavery pre-dated the Civil War and in many ways led to the Civil War. The abolitionists did not start the Civil War to end slavery. They did not start the Civil War at all. The slave owners started the Civil War to prevent the abolitionists from ending slavery. That did not work out well for them. Those on the left who espouse violence should bear that in mind, because that is often the outcome for those who start the violence.

There is a connected sequence of views, opinions, indoctrinations that have made Democrats/Leftists arrive at justification of violence in public life. First is the poisonous indoctrination of relative morality. Add to that the false sense of superiority. What is pushing them over the top is the realization that their ideas, policies, plans will never bring a majority in a free society on their side. Using violence to overthrow the 'established' order is the only way. They biggest reason they hate Trump is that he is effectively blocking their plans and will not be intimidated into backing down. They have no need to attempt violence against a Jeb Bush or a Mitt Romney. If this view was held just by a small, lunatic fringe that is another thing. But the degree that it is affecting large swaths of society, especially young people is very alarming.

Nothing surprising here. Anyone surprised has been keeping their head in the sand. I know too many right-leaning people who don't take the time to research what the Left are doing in print and on social media. They have no idea how entrenched the young are in their indoctrination. They have always preached that the end justifies the means. And they are achieving their goals faster than the right ever expected.

Democrats will never tire of calling the One Big Beautiful Bill Act a “giveaway” to the rich. But by their own definition, this bill was a huge giveaway to blue states and blue cities. That’s the finding from a Heritage Foundation report released last week. The study, which used Heritage’s own individual income tax model, looked not only at how much the bill saved taxpayers by preventing President Trump’s 2017 tax cuts from expiring (an average of $1,904 per taxpayer), but the impact of new tax cuts, including the expansion of the state and local tax deduction.

Despite nonstop media controversies swirling about his administration and continued criticism from his political foes, President Donald Trump’s favorability remained rock solid in early October, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. September’s news-filled month — which included the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, renewed efforts to end the Israel-Hamas conflict, and U.S. attacks on South American cartels’ drug boats — failed to diminish Trump’s overall poll readings. Every month, I&I/TIPP asks Americans the following question: “Overall, is your opinion of Donald Trump generally favorable, generally unfavorable,

Never trust a politician who promises to help the poor by taking from the rich. It never works. Joe Biden proved this point. While still in the White House, Biden promised that if reelected, he would levy a billionaire tax on the wealthiest Americans. It wasn’t the first time. During his 2023 State of the Union address, he railed that “the tax system is not fair, it’s not fair.” A year earlier, he proposed a “billionaire minimum income tax.” Even before he was president, Biden was fond of demanding that the rich pay their “fair share,” which makes a snappy

We have long marveled at the virulence of Trump Derangement Syndrome. So why doesn’t the president use it to his own – and the nation’s – benefit? In matters big and small, if President Donald Trump says one thing, masses of leftists and never-Trumpers will insist the opposite is true. After Trump suggested that pregnant women not take Tylenol because it could pose an autism risk to their unborn children, expectant moms swarmed social media with videos of themselves downing the painkiller. After the Trump administration announced it would approve an old drug as a treatment for autism, CBS News went back and altered

Once again, we are being treated to a fusillade of stories about the horrors of a government shutdown. But we invite readers to consider this: Roughly two-thirds of government spending will continue despite the “shutdown.” In other words, there is absolutely no reason for Republicans to cave on Democratic demands that Medicaid benefits for illegals and Obamacare subsidies for higher-income families be restored. The longer the federal government remains shut down, the more people will realize how meaningless it is, and the less leverage Democrats will have.

Computer industry executives, economists, government officials and businesspeople all seem to be very high on the prospects for artificial intelligence (AI). But what about average Americans? They mostly believe AI should be feared, not embraced, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. To kick off the three-question national online poll on AI, I&I/TIPP first asked 1,362 Americans the following: “Do you think artificial intelligence (AI) will mostly create new jobs, mostly take away jobs, or not make much difference?” It wasn’t close.

Last week, Google admitted to Congress that it served as the Biden administration’s censorship enforcer. Which is bad enough. But then it followed up this admission with a lie. In a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, the tech colossus said that under pressure from the administration, it silenced voices that were challenging Joe Biden’s COVID-19 policies. “Senior Biden administration officials, including White House officials, conducted repeated and sustained outreach to Alphabet and pressed the Company regarding certain user-generated content related to the COVID-19

For years, we were told by government officials and outside “experts” that the terrorists in our midst were mostly right-wing fanatics – a list that under the Biden administration came to include parents who spoke up at local school board meetings and Catholics who like the Latin mass. But even the left is now admitting what everyone else already knows. Namely, that despite their constant bleating about tolerance and peace, it’s leftists who pose the greatest threat to Americans. This week, the Trump-hating Atlantic magazine published an article titled “Left-Wing Terrorism Is on the Rise,” written by scholars at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

The California Legislature passed, and Gov. Gavin Newsom eagerly signed, a bill that forbids law enforcement officers from concealing their identities with masks. The law applies to local as well as federal officers, but it’s clearly intended to make it easier to dox federal immigration agents. Of course the administration says it will ignore the law. So what happens when local and state officers try to enforce it? A war? California also forbids federal agents from enforcing immigration law in state courthouses.

In response to a Federalist inquiry, not a single Democrat U.S. Senator called for the Virginia Democrat attorney general candidate Jay Jones to drop out of the race in light of his text messages fantasizing about assassinating Republican Todd Gilbert. “Put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time,” Jones wrote, after running a hypothetical about how to allocate two bullets among Gilbert, Hitler, and Pol Pot. The 2022 text messages were first reported by National Review on Friday. According to a source cited by the outlet, Jones also “suggested he wished Gilbert’s wife could watch her own child die-

The most destructive inferno in Los Angeles history, which charred a devastating path through Pacific Palisades and Malibu in early January, was a rekindling fire that an Uber driver intentionally set days earlier near a popular hiking area, federal investigators alleged. Authorities on Wednesday also announced the arrest of 29-year-old Jonathan Rinderknecht, who is suspected of setting the initial fire on New Year’s Eve. Rinderknecht, of Florida, was charged with maliciously starting what eventually became the Palisades fire. Among the evidence that was collected from his digital devices was an image he generated on ChatGPT depicting a burning city, said U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.

A federal appeals court on Wednesday lifted a judge’s order blocking President Trump from federalizing Oregon National Guard Troops. On Saturday, Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee, blocked President Trump’s National Guard deployment to Portland. Judge Immergut issued a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and blasted President Trump’s decision to deploy troops. The TRO will expire on October 18. The judge warned that Trump’s justification to deploy troops to Portland may send the country into a constitutional crisis. On Sunday, President Trump called up hundreds of California National Guard Troops to Portland to circumvent the judge’s order blocking Oregon National Guard Troop deployment.
