Some Thoughts
—Ace
Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwaldThe attempt to blame left-liberals for Kirk's murder relies on the same dangerous theory liberals invoked to blame conservatives for the white supremacist slaughters in Buffalo, Charleston and the El Paso Walmart (e.g., those who accuse Dems of "replacing" Americans with immigration inspired those massacres).
Everyone says bad things about the other side in politics. The left calls MAGA fascist and the right calls the left deranged commies. You're not responsible for psychopaths who murder in the name of your cause (it'd be like blaming pro-life advocates for the murders of abortion doctors, which liberals also do).
As Kirk himself said: "WORDS ARE NOT VIOLENCE. ONLY VIOLENCE IS VIOLENCE." Stop trying to convert words and the expression of views into criminal violence.
No, Gleen, it's not the same. We are not attacking the left for having differences of political opinion. We are not attacking them for having weird beliefs.
We are attacking them for celebrating assassination and murder. We are attacking them for calling for the next "pew pew" against the President Donald Trump.
If Trump goes down -- we are at war.
You are right that most words are not violence. But some words are: Specifically those calling for someone to be killed, or praising an assassin for killing someone, with hopes that additional assassins will emerge.
That is what we are condemning. I do grant that some people are making the mistake of attempting to criminalize mere strong political invective -- but what we're really incensed by is that Taylor Lorenz continues to praise Luigi Mangione for his assassination and absolutely zero people in the supposedly "Respectable" media have even so much as chastised her for it.
Indeed, CNN had her on to giggle about it.
Either the left stops openly glorifying violence and calling for Trump or other Republicans to be "pew pewed" -- their puerile, cutesy way of saying "shot" -- or the right is going to start publishing our own Pew Pew Lists.
This is not a difference of political opinion. We on the right will not have a "debate" about whether leftwing assassins are allowed to murder us, our friends, or our leaders.
That will be a civil war situation.
It's not up for debate. Leftwingers arguing that it is justified to murder me, my friends, and my family, and my president, are not offering a political position. They are openly conspiring to commit murder, and we don't debate murderers. We arrest them and, if necessary, we kill them.
The left cannot put itself above the social compact. The basline, rock-bottom social compact is just "you and I are in the same tribe, the same nation, and I agree to not murder you if you agree not not murder me. And we also agree not to incite our more dangerous, mentally-unstable members to kill each other, either."
If we do not have that, we do not have a country, and we are in state of war. The rules of society do not apply, only the rules of war and violence do.

@monsterhunter45These poor fools are missing the big picture.
When there's a killing the left always tries to assign the killer to the right. We're used to it. And the vast majority of the right always overwhelmingly condemns the killer.Only this time all the moderate normie republicans out there saw MILLIONS of liberals celebrate and justify the brutal murder of a man... all because that man held beliefs similar to theirs. Beliefs that regular Americans consider completely normal and common sense.
These normal folks were going about their day, then they saw some shocking brutality, and before they could even process it all their liberal friends were dancing in the blood and gleefully justifying it. "He deserved it for believing X and Y." And that normal person realized that they also believe X and Y, so them getting murdered would be just as celebrated too. At best they saw a "Murder is bad, BUT... he deserved it for believing X and Y."
And the lights go on.
It doesn't matter how hard the left scrambles to put the shooter in some particular ideological bucket to cover their asses and take no blame (as usual), because regular America saw how fucking gleeful libs were when somebody just like them dies horribly, and they realized that the left wants them dead. Not metaphorically. They want you to die. Some of us have known this for a long time because we pissed off the left somehow previously, but for the regular folks coming to that understanding is a life changing moment.
You ain't brushing this one off, Glenn.
We are not going to have a debate over whether we are legitimate targets for leftwing murderers.
If the left continues to cover up for its murderers, to celebrate murderers, to call for additional murders -- then we will too. If it's the rule for one, it's the rule for all.
Tim Hannan @TimHannan1 guy acted alone and they want to go to war? It's like they just were looking for any reason.
First of all: He didn't act alone. He had accomplices, who all thought this was a nice antifa lark.
Second of all:
Shoe @shoe0nheadone guy acted alone. then we saw the reaction of millions. some posting with their full names and faces. teachers, childcare workers, healthcare workers, hr professionals, game developers. hundreds of thousands of people that walk amongst every day, who live next door to us, people i thought were friends, people i thought were normal people celebrating the gruesome public execution of a father shot in the fucking throat in front of his young children, celebrating because he politically does not agree with them. we saw their real beliefs when the " in this house believe" shitlib mask was ripped off. sociopathic freaks.
This is what takes this from being "one man's crime" to a crime supported by, encouraged by, and covered up half the nation.
Either murder is forbidden for all or it is permitted for all. We will no longer permit the left's asymmetry of privilege to commit "glorious revolutionary murder" because they think they're on the right side of history.

The Democrat-Media Party Insists That It's Conservatives Who Incited the Murder of Our Most Beloved Conservative Influencer Charlie Kirk
—Ace
Accuse the GOP for escalating violence? Not accuse them of?
Oh well, it's just a paid "professional writer," we can't expect them to understand how written speech and grammar work.
A growing number of Democratic lawmakers and political commentators have suggested that Charlie Kirk and the Republican party bear responsibility for the escalation of political violence in the country.
...For years, videos of Kirk debating left-leaning college students would go viral, giving birth to the popular phrase of "owning the libs" used within conservative circles.
Kirk's death has garnered condolences from both his allies, like Trump, to those politically opposed to him like former President Barack Obama and former Vice President Kamala Harris. However, others haven't been so sympathetic to Kirk or his family, insinuating that he and the Republican Party is partly to be blamed for the rise in political violence in the country.
On Thursday --just a day after Kirk's assassination -- Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) appeared on CNN, saying that all Americans "need to turn down the rhetoric" which is inciting violence. But he also pointed his finger at Republicans for being the main culprit.
"Let's be serious about where this violence is coming from," Moutlon said. "Of extremist violent attacks in America, extremist murders 76% are from right wing extremists. 4% are from left wing extremists. I condemn that 4%, but we also need to be honest about as a nation, about where this violence is coming from."
Moulton's comments come as Trump has vowed to target left-leaning groups espousing rhetoric which he says is responsible for Kirk's assassination, and other acts of political violence, including the assassination attempt on his own life.
Former Biden era White House press secretary turned MSNBC host Jen Psaki had accused Trump of escalating the tensions between conservatives and liberals in his video addressing Kirk's death.
"[T]here was a line at the end that I think -- I just wanted to raise and read," Psaki said. "At the end of this four-minute video, he [Trump] says, 'For years, those on the radical left have compared wonderful Americans like Charlie to Nazis and the world's worst mass murderers and criminals. This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism that we're seeing in our country today. And it must stop right now.'"
Psaki then stated, "And, obviously, there's a lot of rhetoric that is problematic. A lot of it is coming from one particular side and from one particular building. But what can be done, I fear, when this is an escalation, already, in less than 24 hours of this shooting?"
On Wednesday, CBS Mornings host Nate Burleson asked former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy if Kirk's assassination will lead Republicans to reflect on how their own rhetoric may be contributing to political violence.
Disinformation Expert Lizzy @StarChamberMaidCNN: Trump saying leftwing radicals are the problem is inciting violence.

Antifa Assassin Captured
—Ace
Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old antifa demon brainwashed by hateful leftwing professors, was turned in by his father who was a former sheriff. The father basically told the kid that he had to turn himself in and go to prison.
He looks just like the grainy pictures the FBI distributed. There can be no doubt.
He even has the five o'clock shadow I noticed.
The "cultural phrases" on the bullet casings turned out to be:
* "Catch, fascist"
* "Bella ciao" (a reference to an Italian song used by resistance fighters in WWII that antifa uses as military anthem)
* A confusing reference that is reportedly a tip-of-the-hat to the LGBTQ mafia's.... "furry community." It's something like "bulges, notices, OWO" which, they say, are in-jokes in the furry community. Garrett? Confirmation or...?
Update! Here's the explanation, from XTC, who now has some additional explaining to do:
"OwO what's this/dis?" is a Furry thing.And combined with the *notices bulge*, it means that he found out a "girl" he found hot is a dude, and is even MORE into it now.
Posted by: XTC
In addition, we know of an accomplice that is so far unnamed and uncaptured. In discord messages, Robinson spoke with someone who promised to leave the rifle at a "DROP POINT." This might have just been an illicit gun sale, or it might have been a promise to leave the gun in the sniper's nest so that Robinson wouldn't have to walk it into the campus.
We don't know who this person was. Was it an antifa member with access to rifles? And what of the Person Place or Thing who promised that Charlie Kirk would be "vaporized" "tomorrow," and wrote a song called "Charlie Kirk Dead at 31"? Was this a coincidence? Or was this the person who promised to leave the rifle at the "DROP POINT"?
We don't know. Developing, I guess.
Update:
Now, it appears that Robinson did not act alone in the shooting.Governor Spencer Cox announced during an FBI Press Conference this morning that Robinson received instructions on Discord to pick up a rifle and an engraved case from a drop point.
He coordinated with others on the chat group Discord before the assassination, arranging with a so-called “friend” to retrieve the weapon.

BREAKING - Alleged Charlie Kirk assassin in custody
—Buck Throckmorton
A 22 year old Utah man, Tyler Robinson, is in custody for the murder of Charlie Kirk.
Addendum [CBD]
The Morning Report — 9/12/25
—J.J. Sefton
Good morning kids. As of the time I am composing this post, the authorities are still on the hunt for Charlie Kirk's assassin and any confederates. Now there's a word pregnant with meaning in this context and certianly all the suffering, misery, dislocation and waste of human life and potential that that Democrat Left have inflicted on this country for two centuries. Yesterday in the comments I quipped that given the current wave of domestic terrorism incidents, I wouldn't be surprised if the shooter was either transexual or transexual-adjacent. So while the killer or killers remain at large dd evidently the weapon and some ammunition have been recovered at the scene hat seem to support my snarky yet potentially accurate assertion.
Reports from Steven Crowder and the Wall Street Journal indicate the ammunition found by the alleged assassin’s gun was marked with transgender messages.
. . . CNN noted the ammo was “scrawled with cultural phrases.” Breitbart News can report that sources familiar confirmed that the ammunition had such messages — like transgender and antifa — on them. 10 KJRA reported that Charlie Kirk “was answering a question about transgender shooters when he was fatally shot during an event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.”
I'm sure the editors at CNN regard "ARBEIT MACHT FREI" and "FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA" as well as this pair of classic Leftist/Democrat sayings: "COLORED DRINKING FOUNTAIN" and "WHITES ONLY" as cultural phrases too.
As I noted yesterday that Charlie Kirk, may his memory be for a blessing, one of the most ardent champions of free speech for everyone should be silenced as he was attempting to practice what he preached is among the bitterest of ironies to be endured. And it underscores the unvarnished harsh reality of the Democrat Left
Charlie Kirk is dead because the modern Democrat Party wanted it this way. They could not stand 15 feet in front of him and debate his logic, so they took the coward’s path. They put a bullet in him from 200 yards away. This was not random, and it was not isolated. It was the predictable consequence of years of poisonous rhetoric, media collusion, and a political class that has normalized violence against conservatives.
A would say to Rep Harrigan that it's not the "Modern Democrat Party" but the Democrat Party almost since its inception if not certainly at the point when Tammany Hall founder Aaron Burr needlessly and cold-bloodedly slew Alexander Hamilton. And the rest as they say is history.
Again, at the risk of being repetitive but I think it's a crucial point and one which we discussed on the past two episodes of the podcast and which I have raised in many an editorial lo these many years now, unless and until American academia is completely purged of the anti-American, anti-Western, anti-Judeo/Christian rot that not only created or at best nurtured the monster who took Charlie Kirk from us but the criminal savages murdering, raping and burning our cities and towns to the ground.
We must utterly, ruthlessly and completely destroy the Castration/Indoctrination to Assassination Pipeline of the Democrat Left. President Trump has vowed to . .
Trump Vows to Catch ‘Each and Every’ Person or Organization Involved in Assassination of Charlie Kirk
Unless that includes the NEA/AFT, the DNC Gates, Ford, Rockefeller, Macarthur and all the other Foundations that are funding our national suicide America will barely make it to 250 let alone 275 or beyond. Certainly not as it was founded nor as we had hoped it could be.
If I am not mistaken there are laws on the books in several states holding parents accountable for the criminal actions of their children, which came about over the past few years in the wake of the wave of school shootings. Should this law not also extend to teachers and professors who pumped their brains full of Marxitst propaganda and in the case of transexuals, the frankenstein doctors who pumped them full of powerful psychoactive hormones?
Along with the sick, twisted panoply of pornographic obscenities from some of this nation's most despicable wastes of life in and out of government blaming Kirk, Trump and America itself for Charlie's martyrdom, there are a few that are postulating that his assassination was indeed a turning point for the nation.
Some say positive in that it awakened the sleeping giant in all of us and others to the perilous and dangerous road we are on that Charlie himself passionately pleaded against, but I fear it might also be waving a red flag at the leftist bull in that its okay to go full Luigi Mangione on anyone and everyone that Leftists slime as Nazi/Fascist/white supremacist/Islamophobe/Transphobe etc, ad nauseum. Again, as discussed in the podcast about 18-39 year-olds alarmingly supporting socialism/authoritarianism in the United States it flies in the face of the rosy optimism of some of the pundits' painting a positive outlook for the nation in the wake of Charlie Kirk's influence prior to his being taken from us.

Trump Remembers the Victims of 9/11; Will Award Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom; Vows to Go After "Radical Left Lunatics"
—Ace
President Donald Trump on Thursday participated in ceremonies honoring the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the 24th anniversary of the event."This morning, we recall the light of America's best and bravest and the love they showed in their final moments In their memory, we make a solemn pledge and a noble promise: we will honor -- always -- our great heroes," Trump said.
"On that fateful day, savage monsters attacked the very symbols of our civilization," he added. "Yet here in Virginia, and in New York, and in the skies over Pennsylvania, Americans did not hesitate. They stood on their feet, and they showed the world that we will never yield, we will never bend, we will never give up, and our great American flag will never, ever fail."

Right-Wing Activists Are Targeting People for Allegedly Celebrating Charlie Kirk's Death
Extremists and an anonymously run website are posting identifying details about people accused of celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder online. Some of those targeted are now getting death threats.
Far-right influencers and violent extremists are posting identifying details about people they view as celebrating or glorifying the murder of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. The campaign has been swift and widespread and has already led to at least one person losing their job and others receiving death threats.
It's "extremist" to name people cheering on political assassinations -- but not extremist at all to cheer on political assassinations. Got it.

Paramount Seeking to Buy Majority Position in Spun-Off Parent Company of CNN; Will Fold It Into CBS "News"
—Ace
Paramount Skydance is planning to make a majority cash bid for CNN parent company Warner Bros. Discovery in an effort to consolidate the media giants, according to reporting in The Wall Street Journal on Thursday."The bid will be for the entire company, including its cable networks and movie studio," people familiar with the situation told WSJ.
Skydance is run by David Ellison, son of multi-billionaire Larry Ellison who co-founded Oracle Corporation.
Skydance officially merged with Paramount in an $8 billion deal just weeks ago after CBS agreed to settle a lawsuit with President Donald Trump for $16 million. Trump had claimed that a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris was "unfairly edited" and put him at a disadvantage in the 2024 election.
Note the fear. They know that the monkeys have been running around the zoo shitting all over everything for 20 years and they're afraid that reasoning humans might put them back in their cages.
Dylan Byers reported that Bari Weiss might end up with a big position overseeing both irredeemable anti-journalistic outfits. He doesn't say if this is based on sources' statements or is just his idle, clickbait speculation:

Speaking of CBS: Despite having almost zero viewers, CBS's despised morning show thinks it has the swagger to casually support Charlie Kirk's murder.
Nate Burleson says that it's time for Republicans to reflect on our responsibility for political violence. He also declares that Charlie Kirk "offended" some "groups," and therefore he's responsible for his own murder.
He shouldn't have "offended" special protected "groups" that are allowed to murder you, you see.

But Trump Didn't Lower Prices Yet!: Inflation Comes In at Negative 0.1%, Meaning Prices Came Down in July in Absolute (not Just Relative) Terms
—Ace
Trump has been making the case for months that we are no longer in Biden's "transitory inflation" phase. Jerome Powell never pre-emptively raised interest rates due to Biden's inflationary spending, and actually lowered them just before the election to boost Biden's chances, despite inflation still being well above the target rate.
Meanwhile, he refuses to lower interest rates for Trump, despite 1, inflation near the 2% target, and 2, signs of a weakening job market.
Well, inflation for July had been "expected" by "experts" to come in at 0.3%, for an annualized rate of 3.6%. Instead, they came in at -0.1%, meaning prices went down, and if this rate were annualized, prices would come down 1.2% for the year.
As I've said, the fed fears deflation because people will tend to sit on their money if they know their money increases in value just by hoarding it.
Will he finally reduce rates? Allegedly he's considering doing so for later this month, but just by a small amount. 0.25% or 0.5%.
He's a left-wing deep state ideologue so he'll do whatever he can to push us into recession.
Stocks hit fresh records Wednesday after new inflation data bolstered investor confidence about coming Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts.A surge in shares of Oracle, which said artificial intelligence had fueled an "astonishing quarter," sparked a broader rally in AI-related stocks. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite rose to new closing highs, a day after all three major indexes did so.
...
A gauge of wholesale inflation showed prices unexpectedly edged 0.1% lower in August, after jumping a month earlier. Economists had expected a 0.3% monthly rise. An equivalent readout on consumer prices is due Thursday.
"Just out: No Inflation!!!" President Trump posted on his social-media platform.
Unexpectedly.
Some Thoughts on the Charlotte Murder
—TheJamesMadison
Note from Ace: While we wait to hear about Charlie Kirk, and wait for the next MSNBC incitement to leftwingers to assassinate more Republican normies, TJM has some thoughts about the Iryna Karutska slaying.
So, I live outside of Charlotte, NC, but I simply don't consume local news. I never have, no matter where I've lived. I'm just not of the generation that reads local newspapers or watches local broadcast news. However, the story of Iryna Zarutska has fascinated me, and I think it's partially driven by a small discussion my wife, Dolley, and I had when we first moved to the area.
We moved to the city's environs because she got a major job offer from a major employer. We didn't want to pay Mecklenburg County house prices, so we ended up settling on a house in a rural/suburban area in an outlying county. Then the discussion started about how she would get to work. She eventually just settled on driving (I work remotely for a company based in another city and can work anywhere), but for a time she looked into using the light rail, the same light rail that Zarutska was murdered on.
So, it's caught my eye since news of it first broke in the final week of August.

WSJ: Recovered Rifle & Ammo Are Scrawled with Transgender, Antifa Messages;
CNN Hides This Fact From Its Few Viewers By Calling the Cult Slogans "Cultural Phrases"
—Ace
The FBI recovered some fairly clear pictures of the newest trans terrorist.
This trans terrorist scrawled antifa and transgender death cult slogans on his gun and ammo -- exactly like the last trans terrorist child-murderer did.
Update: This photo of the trans assassin is pretty clear, but I strongly believe it's been enhanced by an AI clean-up which could have possibly distorted some of it. Like, he appears clean shaven here and with smooth skin, but has stubble in the photos and might have a pockmarked face.
Still, might be useful:
On to the trans assassin's rifle:
"The suspect fired one shot from an elevated position on a rooftop in an adjacent building on the campus, and surveillance video shows the suspect jumping off and fleeing the area on foot," the email read, according to Crowder.Law enforcement discovered "an older model imported Mauser .30-06 caliber bolt-action rifle wrapped in a towel in a wooded area near the campus," the email noted, "The location of the firearm appears to match the suspect's route of travel."
Each of the cartridges had "engraved wording on them, expressing transgender and anti-fascist ideology." Following this Crowder report and the FBI press conference, the Wall Street Journal confirmed the reporting.
CNN is only interested in bringing you facts without any political bias whatsoever.
That's why they translated "transgender, antifa ideology" to "cultural phrases."
Note the first name in the byline is FusionGPS operative and RussiaGate Hoaxer Evan Perez.
CNN further elucidates that it's "not clear" what the trans/antifa terrorist's motive could be.
Ryan Saavedra @RealSaavedraFederal law enforcement says that the ammunition used by Charlie Kirk's assassin had transgender, anti-fascist ideology engraved on it
CNN makes no mention of what was written, only calling it "cultural phrases", adding it's not clear what the motive is
Unreal
Update! My friend Kyle Shiedler puts it perfectly:
Kyle Shideler @ShidelerK"Shooter's rifle scrawled with cultural phrases commonly used by CNN hosts"
On air, CNN's chyrons called the trans terrorist messaging "phrases related to cultural
issues."

The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
—CBD
24 years ago our relaxed post-cold-war, end-of-history world changed.
But did it? Or was it that our perspective had become so relaxed that we lost sight of the reality of the human condition, and the even more brutal reality that there were, are, and always will be forces aligned against the best and highest expression of our humanity.
Part of the problem is that we have also lost sight of what that humanity is, and have lost sight of the true face of those who are allied against that humanity.
Our founders knew very well what that humanity is, and knew that without a robust structure protecting it, we would lose it. Our glorious Constitution gave us that structure, and the Bill Of Rights codified the rights that must be protected.
But the true face of those who would destroy our humanity is difficult to discern in a world that carefully rejects clear morality, and much prefers the murky and unstructured view that we are all able to create a moral and ethical structure out of whole cloth.
We can't. There is evil in this world, and no amount of obfuscation and moral relativism can hide that. Islam is evil, and its single-minded purpose is the destruction of exactly what makes us human. And those who would subvert the essence of what makes us unique are also evil. Celebrating transsexualism, stealing our free speech, destroying the family, making love of God a nasty punchline, killing the most innocent among us... all of this and more conspires to steal our individualism and make us just cogs in their infernal machine.
Because evil will never rest, and will do whatever it takes to destroy those who love and respect humanity, we must be vigilant forever.
And there are those among us who are more than vigilant. We are blessed with people who not only are aware of the evil around us, but also join the fight against it.
There was no one in the world who fought harder and better against the encroaching evil than Charlie Kirk. Not with his fists, but with his intellect and wits and love of humanity.
Charlie Kirk was our Happy Warrior!
Who is the happy Warrior? Who is he
That every man in arms should wish to be?
--It is the generous Spirit, who, when brought
Among the tasks of real life, hath wrought
Upon the plan that pleased his boyish thought:
Whose high endeavours are an inward light
That makes the path before him always bright;
Who, with a natural instinct to discern
What knowledge can perform, is diligent to learn;
Abides by this resolve, and stops not there,
But makes his moral being his prime care;
Who, doomed to go in company with Pain,
And Fear, and Bloodshed, miserable train!
Turns his necessity to glorious gain;
In face of these doth exercise a power
Which is our human nature's highest dower
The arrant nonsense spewed by evil that Charlie Kirk was a racist and a Nazi and a White Supremacist and hated gays doesn't survive a cursory examination of his work. His skill at refuting evil while still able to smile and love was astonishing, and it is all the more impressive when one appreciates the vitriol that was heaped on him everywhere he went. But he kept doing it, and he made a real difference.
When people stop talking, really bad stuff starts. When marriages stop talking, divorce happens. When civilizations stop talking, civil war ensues. When you stop having a human connection with someone you disagree with, it becomes a lot easier to want to commit violence against that group.-- Charlie KirkWhat we as a culture have to get back to is being able to have reasonable disagreement -- where violence is not an option.
The question before us today is whether the evil that is arrayed against humanity can be combated with talking. Some of it? Certainly? But when it crosses into violence, what should good people do?
The Morning Report — 9/11/25
—J.J. Sefton
Good morning kids. It is bitterly ironic that Charlie Kirk, who indeed was a voice of sanity and reason for his generation and indeed for all real Americans, was silenced by an assassin's bullet on the eve of the 24th anniversary of the 9/11/01 attack. His martyrdom at the hands of a crazed Leftist, despite the despicable remark I saw somewhere claiming that he was shot by accident from a gun-toting supporter who fired off a celebratory round or some such bilge. Beyond that, we have Democrat pols and pundits doing what Muslims did 24 years ago as the Twin Towers collapsed, ululating and passing out candy. They are celebrating Kirk's murder while blaming him for his demise. His rhetoric you see caused his demise. Like the rape victim who dressed too provocatively, or Iryna Zaretska who exposed her white neck on a Charlotte tram car to Black the Ripper's knife and only has herself to blame.
One of the most horrendous examples was that Matthew Dowd subhuman waste-of-life from MSNBC or as I label it MSNSDAP. I'm actually shocked that MSNSDAP fired Dowd, considering this is the whorehouse that continues to give a platform to one of this nation's most execrable fomenters of violence in its history, that of the hideous so-called "Reverend" Al Sharpton.
Remember how they cheered and made Luigi Mangione a folk hero. I cannot wait to see how Charlie Kirk's assassin is canonized. May the day come when the Left is cannonized from 30MM fire of A-10 Warthogs on a strafing run. Rhetorically speaking of course /s.
When do we get to strike back. When do we get to declare "Never Again" and defend ourselves. If the rule of law means nothing to them, and like President Trump relying on a justice system that is out to destroy him in order to seek justice, then we have passed the tipping point.
Some have postulated that we are in or close to being in a state of civil war but I think that that is incorrect insofar as it would mean that the bodies are piling up on both sides of the divide. And despite all of us being tagged as fascists, Nazis, literally Hitler, white supremacists, Christian nationalists and committers of genocide here and abroad, the facts just do not gibe with reality. But of course that is a sine qua non of Leftists, Democrats and their ilk along with projection. They are doing and behaving in exactly the way they blood libel us as.
What we are confronted with is a political party and movement whose leaders in their two-century and continuing lust for absolute power have amassed a sizable following willing to vote the rest of us straight through a gate marked Arbeit Macht Frei as their antecedent kissing cousins did 80 years ago in Germany.
How many more Charlie Kirks, Iryna Zarutskas, Laken Rileys, catholic school children, Ashli Babitts GOP softball practices, Corporate executives and on and on and on must we mourn before, as the late MLK poetically intoned the biblical passage, "may justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream." Justice??? from a justice system that is non-stop pissing on our back and proclaiming it's raining. A justice system that threw the book at Daniel Penny, railroaded Donald Trump several times on a slew of bogus charges, and failing to destroy him that way, not to mention 2 or 3 assassination attempts, has shredded the Constitution in derailing his legal authority as President to discharge his duties across a broad range of domestic and foreign policy issues.
My incandescent hatred of the Left in this country not just for what they have done culturally, politically and now by cheering, fomenting and committing actual bloodshed but because they are making me want to see and visit the same, 10,000 times worse upon them. May God save us from the hell they have unleashed upon us and guide us in paths of righteousness so that we as a nation and people may once again live in peace, with truth and justice.
On the latest edition of the podcast, our friend the estimable Jim Lakely of the Heartland Institute discussed with me and CBD the horrifying implications of their latest set of polls, linked here and in the sidebar.
And of course do go to Heartland dot ORG to read and weep for yourselves.
One of of the more shocking revelations was that a very large majority of the 18-39 year old demographic, even across party lines, is strongly in favor of curtailing free speech rights. Considering who Charlie Kirk was and what he dedicated his life to – free speech and open political discourse – his assassination takes on an even more chilling tone.
But, at the young age of 31, Charlie was a part of that age cohort that is pushing to recreate Nazi Germany in their own image here at home.
Let us hope and pray that Charlie was not an outlier and that there really is a sizable number of Americans of all ages that are repulsed by what these polls are revealing about the path we are going down, which more and more is resembling the Road to Hell, or in the death camps what the Nazis euphemistacally and cruelly referred to as the Road to Heaven - the walkway that led to the doors of the gas chamber and crematoria.
I apologize in advance if my editorial today is a bit disjointed. I am just shaking with both rage and grief over Charlie Kirk as well as the memory of 9/11/01. NYC, despite all of its problems and faults, was and always will be my hometown and at the time while I was living in LA I was bicoastal and came back many times. I was in town for a couple of weeks before the attack and in fact was at the WTC the week before. I traveled from my place in Queens via the E train to the Trade Center and weirdly referred to it as my ground zero, from where I would go shopping at Century 21 dept. store, J&R Music world and then take a leisurely stroll up through Tribeca for a breakfast. That was my routine, sometimes accompanied by my father as we would go art gallery hopping in SoHo. I remember emerging from the subway that day and something compelled me to gaze upward to the top of the Towers like a tourist, and I had the weird feeling that I might never have the chance to see them again. My folks wanted me to extend my stay but something compelled me to return to LA and the next thing I knew, my dad was on the phone telling me turn on my TV, and that a plane had struck the WTC. My first thought was Cessna, until I saw the second plane strike the North tower and the world I thought I knew was gone forever. Had I extended my stay, no doubt I would've been at Ground Zero at the exact time of the attack.
Also, I later learned that a schoolfriend of mine happened to be on the 108th floor of the South Tower that day and so, as it is every year now on this day, my thoughts turn to her.
May her and all the memories of those who were slaughtered that day be for a blessing.
And lastly, a quick shout-out and thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Have a great day!
