The Democrats once knew there were limits on what they could and would do to win. The new crop of Democrats has no limits at all.
The Dems have always been adept at playing dirty. There is scarcely a single epoch of American politics since 1828 that doesn’t feature a titanically corrupt Democrat capable of vast crimes committed in order to remain in power and make a profit doing so. But old-time Dems knew there were limits. You didn’t try to steal a presidential election. You didn’t undermine the foundations of the system itself. You didn’t try to annihilate the opposition. You gave lip service to the verities and generally tried to project a front of high-minded virtue, giving lip service to established values even as you defied them.
In recent decades, though, Democrats have dumped all ethical pretenses in favor of utilizing any tactic, any strategy, to gain and maintain power, and to squeeze out every last dime and every last privilege, no matter what the cost to anybody else.
The entry of ideology into everyday politics has rotted everything it touched. A system infected by it is ruined and is best destroyed, in hopes of protecting everything else. It could be any ideology—right, left, center—the effect is the same. But America has suffered the grave misfortune of contracting possibly the worst form: leftism, that is, socialism based on the Marxist dialectic.
As is true of all previous cases—the USSR, Red China, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Cuba, Nicaragua—the key element is the control of everything, whether it’s political in the accepted sense or not (“the personal is the political” is one of the root concepts here). Everything outside of the ideological structure is a target, against which any tactic can be justified.

The democRATs now seem to approve of assassinating their opposition.
Dunn makes the point toward the end of his article of the need to ‘nip in the bud’ stochastic terrorism. A perfect case to do this would be to military court-martial Mark Kelly. The video evidence of him committing the egregious crime of inciting military subversion among active duty personnel ought to be a slam dunk in a General Court Martial before either a military judge alone or a jury made up of military personnel. If done properly, it will send a strong signal to other would be stochastic terrorists. I sure hope Hegseth gets it done.

Agreed. And I think another part of the solution is Rudy’s broken windows policy. Basically, the Dims have been letting their constituents get away with other crimes like shoplifting and even violence. So terrorism is the next step in that vein. If we go back to punishing smaller crimes we “nip it in the bud” psychologically when they’re young.
yep
“....Dems knew there were limits. You didn't try to steal a presidential election.....”
LBJ Chicago? Gore Florida?
As to political assassinations they even go after their own, not just Republicans.
What was the political involvement in the assassination of JKF, RFK?
Why was Seth Rich executed after he leaked DNC files?
