One of the most important messages that the electorate can send this year is that this culture of fomenting violence directly and indirectly must stop.
Whatever the motivations of the attempted assassin of Trump, still undisclosed by the FBI, it has taken that attempt to focus greater public scrutiny on calls for violence from the Left.
Let's remind ourselves of just a few of the many examples:
- Obama declaring if they bring a knife, we bring a gun
- Madonna saying she'd thought a lot about blowing up the White House (when Trump was in it)
- Kathy Griffin infamously holding up a depiction of Trump's bloody, severed head
- Shakespeare-in-the-Park portraying Julius Caesar's assassination with a Trump look-alike
- Biden saying he'd like to take Trump behind the gym and "beat the hell out of him"
- Schumer threatening the Supreme Court: "...you will pay the price. You will not know what hit you..."
- Kamala Harris saying of the violent 2021 riots that they were justified and that they should continue: "they're not gonna let up, and they should not."
- Rep. Maxine Waters declaring about Trump administration officials: "push back on them and tell them they are not welcome anymore, anywhere," that one should "absolute harass them," and that "I will go and take Trump out tonight."
- Madame Speaker Pelosi saying "I just don't know why there aren't uprisings all over the country."
- Johnny Depp asking: "When was the last time an actor assassinated a president?"
- Democrat Rep. Paul Kanjorski saying about the Republican candidate for governor of Florida: "...they ought to...shoot him. Put him against the wall and shoot him."
- Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman saying Trump should be "eliminated."
- Former Attorney General Eric Holder saying: "When they go low

Mixed feelings.
If Trump wins, I expect the Democrats to burn cities, and I would smugly say “That’s wrong”.
But I have to say that if Kamala wins in a massive landslide, I know that the courts won’t question it, the states won’t question it, the GOP won’t question it. I know that no crowd of patriots will gather in Washington in early January to wave signs. And I would expect a full-on Police State to begin, with lots of people getting “disappeared” over the next 4 years.
So ... my opinion on an appropriate response if Kamala wins in a landslide will remain unstated.
100% of the violence incitement comes from the left.
One day they will push too far.
Well, we can hope.
…but their mantra to the American people- through their media is a constant:
“Right-wing violence!” “Crazed right-wing GUN owners!”
My lefty co-workers are thoroughly convinced that any and all violence is entirely from “conservatives”….
It doesn’t matter what THEIR people say or do.. there’s ALWAYS an explanation and excuse for it…. This is what worshipping daily at the altar of CNN/MSNBC will do to a mind..
I think we should anticipate a Kamala “win”.
America is 4 years behind schedule and Europe is on schedule.
I don’t think this works unless we all come along together.
The American public is the most fearsome force on the planet (whether we exploit that or not is another matter).
I figure the plan was for us to lead a little then the rest of the world would fall in line easily.
I think Trump dorked their timeline up. If Americans see where the “elites” are taking us, I suspect we would decide not to go.
That said, I think another four years of Trump would render their schedule unrecoverable and set them back 100 years.
So I think powerful forces are set on ensuring that does not happen.
But I’m just some schmo in the interwebs, what do I know!

‘Squad’ Members Face Lawsuit Over ‘Inciting’ Columbia (University) Riots

Three of the “Squad” members — Democrat Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamaal Bowman of New York and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota — have been hit with a class-action lawsuit for “inciting and encouraging” the anti-Israeli protests and chaos at Columbia University, the New York Post reported on Saturday.
Columbia made international news in April when pro-Palestinian demonstrators broke into Hamilton Hall, resulting in dozens of arrests following a large-scale police operation. In late June, the city of New York dropped all criminal charges against the protesters.
The three high-profile Democrats were among the most visible lawmakers who sided with the pro-Palestinian encampments and warned authorities to dial back any form of discipline.

Antisemitism fears grow at Fieldston School — fueled by Sunny Hostin backed letter supporting ‘Free Palestine’ students

“The View” co-host Sunny Hostin has found herself at the center of a dispute between parents at the posh Ethical Culture Fieldston School in The Bronx over the conflict in Israel and the school’s reaction to it.
Parents of Jewish children at the $63,000-per-year school have been appalled by incidents including anti-Israel graffiti on campus and a student — tormented by classmates with names like “ethnic cleanser” and “colonizer” — who witnessed a teacher giving a middle finger to a rabbi, according to his mother.
Democrat Jon Tester Praised Pearl Jam Poster Depicting Trump Dead, Eagle Eating Corpse
Breitbart ^ | 08/01/2024 | Sean Moran
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/08/01/democrat-jon-tester-praised-pearl-jam-poster-depicting-trump-dead-eagle-eating-corpse/
Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) in 2018 praised an apocalyptic Pearl Jam concert poster that depicted former President Donald Trump dead, according to his 2020 book, Grounded: A Rural Democrat’s Fight to Unite America.
Tester’s last reelection campaign enflamed controversy when a Pearl Jam poster for a get-out-the-vote concert promoting the Montana Democrat featured a dead Donald Trump and an American bald eagle eating the remains of his corpse. Tester is close friends with Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament, who designed the poster.
Tester’s campaign, not Tester himself, disavowed the poster, only after the media shed light on the controversy. Two weeks after the literature was revealed, Tester has yet to personally disavow it.
Scary poll reveals how many Democrats wished assassin KILLED Trump at rally

Most Americans were glad that Donald Trump dodged a bullet at the fateful rally in Pennsylvania.
But not everyone was pleased that 20-year-old assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks was such a bad shot.
Until now, many assumed that only a few bad apples wanted the Republican candidate to take a round to the head.
Not so, says alarming new research from a UK-based academic.
Eric Kaufmann says a shocking third of Democratic voters wished Trump had left his July 13 campaign event in a body bag.
Among progressives, the figure is much higher, says the University of Buckingham politics scholar.
A staggering 71 percent of hard-line lefties said they supported the attempt on Trump’s life.
Kaufmann said his results could be explained by ‘woke moral absolutism.’
‘Identity politics has moralized the outlook of the Left, painting conservatives as evil rather than wrong,’ he says.
Kaufmann carried out his snap poll of a few hundred people five days after the attack, in which Crooks killed firefighter Corey Comperatore, 50, and injured two others, including Trump.
In the hours that followed, several high-profile liberals voiced support for the assassin, who was shot and killed by a Secret Service sniper.
This comes down to a growing ‘partisan asymmetry’ in America, he says.
‘The Left is more prejudiced against the Right than vice versa,’ he adds.
Lefties are more likely to unfriend, refuse to date or otherwise discriminate against conservatives than the other way round, his research shows.
The respondents who backed Trump’s assassination bid also had other hard-line feelings against the GOP.
Sheriff Mack is saying his Intel sources have told him they expect widespread violence on Oct 7th from illegals that will have access to caches of weapons that have been positioned around the country. We’re planning to spend that week at the rural compound.
Our area of Atlanta is already almost unliveable. I thought we were going to have to draw down on some illegal in front of our house last night. Its never-ending.
They have already pushed too far. We have done nothing.
They will keep pushing.
8 years and quite possibly more.
I think you see wisely and with discernment.
Depends if God intervenes.
He has His ways as the Bible attests to.
Some day God is going to give them the world they wished for and in full measure.
They are not in for a good time.
