I think I mentioned that violence on the left at scale was inevitable. Not the parade, protest, riot sort, something much more intentional and aggressive. Yes, you’d have the other stuff we’ve seen, but it would be the widespread insurrection we’ve long expected. And when the DSA started putting “points on the board,” as Democrat … Read more
Two features of the progressive cult that appear obvious, but which don’t get enough attention, are the othering of people and the justification of violence, including murder. They’ve both been featured on these pages and in past morning updates, but the message needs to seep into the so-called political middle. The middle likes to ignore … Read more
How you feel is not science, but the proglodytes are masters of weaponizing feels. They can convince any number of folks to ignore reality in exchange for acting almost entirely on emotion. It’s brainwashing en masse. The PsyOp. Mass hypnosis. There is a science to understanding how and why people are consumed by their feelings, … Read more
Housing Bubble Architect Barney Frank, a career politician and Democrat who spent 32 years telling us what to do from Congress, has offered up a deathbed declaration. Maybe don’t go so far left. Frank told CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday that his record gives the message weight. “It’s precisely because I have been on the left … Read more
If you missed the Wednesday Morning Update, there’s a nice clip from Dan Bongino in there about how this is not a both-sides issue. Yes, the Left loves to say the right is more violent, but as I’ve pointed out more than a few times, the violence from white supremacy groups, neo-Nazis, and the like … Read more
The self-proclaimed party of women’s empowerment has gone in a very weird direction in recent years. After decades of girl power BS, they decided that it was time to stop pretending. Girls and women needed to be conquered by the patriarchy. Completely. They are not only attempting to normalize the practice of calling men in … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, mass media rhetoric to demonize President Trump and his Administration inspired (this time) a seemingly ordinary guy to try to kill the president. And yes, this is an actual example of Stochastic Terrorism…NH State Sen. Debra Altschiller. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the embedded video does not load. … Read more
I needed a few days before putting my thoughts to paper about another effort to bring down Donald Trump. The web and news were filled with “experts” giving their analysis of the shooting and the shooter, but the truth is, we may never know the true reason for this lapse in sanity, and this guy … Read more
Virginia Democratic candidate for state Attorney General and Piece of Shit Extraordinaire, Jay Jones, gets his rocks off fantasizing about children being murdered in front of their mother. He fantasizes about murdering his political opponent. He said so himself in private remarks that have since become public. Far from being an outlier, Jay Jones is the … Read more
Far-left extremist violence was the dominant ideological manifestation in the 1970s and a major part of the U.S. domestic threat but it retreated into a sort of post-Cold War hibernation until the mid-2010s. Since then, they have been reenergized by a variety of issues. At the risk of being simplistic, these issues range from minority … Read more
Many people were shocked to see the identitarian left erupting in ghoulish celebration when news broke that Charlie Kirk had been assassinated. Students who despised Kirk’s political views were seen chanting, “We got Charlie in the neck.” The British sociologist Frank Furedi argues that these students are not confined to a radical, unhinged fringe, nor do they merely … Read more
Hateful and violent rhetoric from those in positions of public trust is not just offensive—it erodes the foundation of community, civility, and democracy itself. The assassination of Charlie Kirk should have been met with grief and calls for healing. Instead, some public figures and leaders in New Hampshire responded with mockery, cruelty, and rhetoric that … Read more
The issue at hand is much deeper than a Council vote of 11 to 4, allowing Bobby Williams to keep his seat as councilman, misrepresenting Ward 2 residents in Keene. Based on his vile and cold-hearted comments celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Bobby apparently represents the far left’s elitist mindset marinated in resentment and … Read more
I wasn’t planning on writing about Charlie Kirk for a couple reasons. One, though very much aware of him, he wasn’t someone I followed closely. Not because I had anything against him, but because there are only so many hours in the day, and I, firmly entrenched as I am in middle age, wasn’t really … Read more
The phrase “86 Bobby Williams” has emerged in recent public discourse—not as a threat, but as a civic statement demanding that Councilor Bobby Williams be removed from office following his inflammatory comments about a political assassination. The phrase echoes a protest sign reading “86 47”, seen in a photo where Williams appears smiling in a … Read more

I just finished reading a comment in response to a video about Charlie Kirk’s assassination, and it got me thinking. This person was, reasonably, wondering about whether it is okay to fire an employee because they had celebrated Charlie Kirk’s death publicly. I had to wonder if we should go in the cancellation direction, so … Read more
The assassination of Charlie Kirk has triggered a profound cultural and spiritual awakening across America, with conservatives recognizing the fundamental differences in values that can no longer be ignored. This tragedy serves as a catalyst for a nationwide revival, from surging church attendance to an explosion of interest in Turning Point USA, where 58,000 new … Read more
Those three elements converged early on a September afternoon to destroy two young lives. One was well-known and well-respected, a beloved husband and father, a crusader for free speech. The other was an obscure coward, who threw away what could have been a promising future. He had succumbed to the hateful lies relentlessly spewed by … Read more
Words have consequences, and when those words evolve into action, the person who spoke the words needs to be held accountable. As much as the Left wants to include the Right in this battle of words, the Left owns this game, and if they cannot control it or do not want to control it, then … Read more
