Last week, we gathered with other scholars at Ground Zero for a summit on terrorism and political violence. The mood was somber, not only because of reflections on 9/11 but also because of pained predictions of violence to come. It would have surprised nobody in attendance had they been told another assassination attempt against the former president would occur days later.
This was, of course, not merely the second assassination attempt against Donald Trump. There have been many more plots over the past several years — aimed at politicians of all stripes — that never reached the point of gunfire being exchanged. The plots are indicative of a broader zeitgeist: We are under heightened threat of political violence.
For instance, recent Republican rhetoric against a community of Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, led to dozens of bomb threats against that community, closing schools and hospitals. In October 2022, a man attacked the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat, during an attempt to kidnap her. In 2020, authorities foiled a plot to kidnap Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan.
There is a distinct and frightening possibility of a violent wave of assassination attempts and domestic terrorism now breaking, not only against the former president but also against Democratic officials and groups, Trump scapegoats and Trump supporters.
During this presidential election, both Democrats and Republicans are framing the other side as an existential threat to the country, and so unstable individuals are being inundated with messages that have exacerbated an already volatile situation. This feeds violence before election day, but that won’t be the end: Imagine what could happen following the election.

The gaslighting is as bright as the sun.
Yep. Once the shooting starts all plans go out the window.
Yeah, after the election, the obliteration of the Deep State.
I expect lots of dirt naps for enemies foreign and domestic that started their war against Trump in 2015 when he announced his run.
That war has to end sometime
Interesting view point I’ve not heard before! I’m thinking They do care. After all the cockroaches funding this gig are looking for a return on their ‘investment’. Iirc I read a blurb about Soros and his ideas/plans. They sounded pretty well organized and specific about outcomes.
Actually the widmer Thing was an fbi op.
I know that, but the left are making it enevitable.
Sure going to be a lot of FBI Widows and Widowers...if this comes to pass.
The Paul Pelosi thing was a gay lovers quarrel, and the Whitmer thing involved FBI agents, setting the whole thing up - and there was no violence at all. To worse examples of violence against political figures I could come up with if you paid me.
They are simply trying to deflect attention away from the fact that leftists are trying to kill Donald Trump. Perhaps just the two leftists involved, and perhaps there is a wider conspiracy (which I believe to be the case). But either way, they are trying to avoid too much attention to the particulars of these two cases of attempted assassination against Trump, because digging too deeply will find answers that no one on the left wants out in the public view.
He’s a glowie, no doubt about it. Go to the Warroom and listen to Mike Benz and all the deepstate connections he’s made on this guy. Yesterday’s Warroom.
Seems there’s a lot missing in this “report”. But, urinalists.
I thought I had heard that but wasn’t sure so didn’t want to say.
*sigh*
What a world we live in.
Lots of lies in that little blurb.
He will not be allowed to become President even if he survives until the election and manages to win. The House won’t certify it.
I’m certain that’s the case.
Absolutely. Already been saying it for almost four years now. Getting him elected is going to be the easy part. This is just starting, the assignation attempts are child’s play, There will be more, they will try until they do get him. They are just getting started. Keeping him alive and in office is going to be the real challenge. Let alone both sides of the aisle letting him do a damned thing to fix this country.
I’m not sure folks truly realize what we are up against here... They are not human. They have no soul. Human life or extreme hardships they care about not. This is our new world government and they are already in control.

Too late now. The stain is set. And there is absolutely no way to get it out. No one is going to lift a finger against it. They have been put in a position where they can’t.
The second they lay hands on Trump, the chances of Harris living to inauguration day would fall somewhere between slim and none.
O ya…what a world! I’m thinking a ‘simpler’ time when govt was severely understaffed and underfunded would be pleasant.
Proving Trump had a right to do what he did when he tried to "reverse the result of the election" on January 6th.
