While the left is politely voicing shock about last night’s attempted assassination, their rhetoric for the past ten years has inevitably encouraged the crazies.
Prominent voices on the left have been branding their opponents as Nazis, “literally Hitler,” pedophiles, or “a threat to democracy.” This inflammatory language dehumanizes entire groups, paints targets on people’s backs, erodes civil discourse, and creates a climate where violence is viewed as justifiable.
When rhetoric escalates to open calls for harm, the consequences are deadly: attempted assassinations of President Trump, the 2017 shooting of Republican congressmen at baseball practice, the murder of Charlie Kirk, and assaults on pro-life activists. Leftists are normalizing the violence against Republicans.
President Trump attended the White House Correspondents’ Dinner at the Washington Hilton last evening—the same venue where Ronald Reagan survived an assassination attempt decades earlier. A lone gunman from California (where else?) charged a security checkpoint just 50 yards from the ballroom, armed with a shotgun, handgun, and knives. Secret Service agents swiftly evacuated Trump, Vice President JD Vance, First Lady Melania Trump, and other officials. One officer was shot but saved by a bulletproof vest.
The suspect was apprehended unharmed and now faces multiple federal felonies, including assault with a dangerous weapon. Trump later described him as a “lone wolf whack job” and “thug that attacked our Constitution,” while praising law enforcement: “I just spoke with the officer, and he is doing great... We told him that we love him and respect him.” The dinner was canceled and will be rescheduled.
In response to what could have been a national tragedy, Trump urged national unity. “I ask that all Americans commit with their hearts to resolving our differences peacefully,” he said, adding that being president “is a very dangerous profession” but that he chooses

My thoughts exactly.
That’s true. We can still find older non woke movies, books and music to enjoy.
The left play victim all the time. hussein obama got to play victim because he’s 1/2 black.
We have tolerated his sorry ass for almost two decades. No one has caused as much division as that sorry pos.
obama didn’t have threats like Trump does. They blame the right but it’s clearly the left that is unhinged and unstable. They keep pushing it as far as they can.
Yes but he could have a B average in HS and still get in.

To Cal Tech? You just about have to be your school’s valedictorian to get into that school.

obama was a “B” student in high school and he got into Columbia.
obama was selected president of the Harvard Law Review without ever doing anything other than being half black with a muslim name. And note that I said “selected.” That year they suspended their usual voting for president of the Harvard Law Review. The faculty picked him because he was BLACK. They had never had a black before so they picked him. obama has been a DEI pos all his life.
“ Stochastic Terrorism”
This is a term that should be applied to the leftist media and the Dems in DC. The propaganda media is far worse than just fake news.
This guy got triggered by someone. Seemed normal until recently according to what we do or don’t know.
Was it a lefty woman? College culture?
All of his planning and he storms the security machines?
Not well thought out.
Amazing
Stochastic terrorist fake media works for me.
I noticed this morning on various new outlets that they want to investigate what motivated this rampage…….REALLY? I think a thread should be started with comments made by democratic leaders, news commentators, and media. Create a list and send it to the DOJ as a tip.
In fact here is one and Jimmy Kimmel should be fired, flat out tomorrow.
“And of course, our first lady, Melania, is here. Look at So beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow,” Kimmel said to the delight of the studio audience”.
Here’s another one.
Steve Schmidt, CNN analyst regarding TRUMP:
“ He’s an insurrectionist, the foremost domestic enemy of the Constitution in American history. He is a vile and disgusting man. A convicted sex predator, and likely a pedophile.”
