I’ve written before about preference cascades — where large portions of the public, often a majority, conceal their views for fear of punishment, only to reveal those views when some precipitating event takes place. Classic examples include the fall of Communist regimes, like Ceausescu’s Romania, where even Ceausescu himself thought everyone loved him until shortly before he was stood in front of a wall and shot. Usually those happen in one direction. But in contemporary America, they’re happening in two. The murder of Charlie Kirk at the hands of a leftist gunman has revealed that many, many more Americans —...

We believe we should have the right to call anyone a Nazi. We believe we should be the only ones who decide if the charge is true. Nobody who is friends with someone accused of being a Nazi is allowed to defend them — they’re Nazis TOO! Then, if we decide someone really IS a Nazi, we get to shoot them. And then the world owes us a Gold Star for killing a Nazi. Also, we’re against the death penalty, so nobody else gets to kill anyone. Especially nobody gets to kill us. But we still get to kill anybody....

This is REALLY bad… Kash Patel just told the Nation by way of Fox News that the suspected Charlie Kirk shooter, Tyler Robinson, had a text message exchange with another person (not disclosed who) where he told them he had a chance to take out Charlie Kirk and he was going to do it. If this is proven, then it seems to me that other person is complicit and should also be charged. Watch here: VIDEO AT LINK................ FULL TRANSCRIPT: My job as FBI director is not to speak to motive, it’s to speak to the facts, and that’s what...

The 22-year-old suspect in Charlie Kirk’s killing appears to have confessed to friends in an online chat shortly before turning himself in to law enforcement, according to two people familiar with the chat and screenshots obtained by The Washington Post. “Hey guys, I have bad news for you all,” said a message from an account belonging to the suspect, Tyler Robinson, on the online platform Discord. “It was me at UVU yesterday. im sorry for all of this.” The message was sent Thursday night, about two hours before officials said Robinson was taken into custody. A member of the group...

WHY is some guy taking things down in the tent when Charlie’s blood was still warm on the floor and the CRIME SCENE hasn’t even been processed yet?!?! Whoever that is, he was quite literally TAMPERING WITH CRIME SCENE EVIDENCE! Normally, there would be a HUGE law enforcement presence and they would have the whole area immediately cordoned off with yellow police tape after an event like this while waiting for the Coroner. You wouldn’t be able to get within 100 feet of this scene, not for a second. Instead, it’s like a damn ghost town. THIS IS EXTREMELY BIZARRE...

In yet another wonderful case of a corporation taking action to purge its ranks of execrable leftist radicals, Office Depot stepped in and fired the employee responsible for the horrific incident, apologizing to customers and noting that steps are being taken to prevent such incidents at its stores across the country in the future. For reference, the incident gained notoriety online after a video of it was published online by the “Michigan Forward” X account. In the video, which was posted on the night of Friday, September 12, and received well over 4 million views as of Saturday morning, a...

The fake news media is now floating a story about embattled Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook’s ‘loan estimate’ in which she “declared” her out-of-state Atlanta condo a “vacation home.” A loan estimate is not binding. Additionally, Lisa Cook’s Atlanta property is an investment property – not a second home – so she likely lied on the ‘loan estimate’ as well. ================================================================= NBC News reported: Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook declared in financial forms that her Atlanta property would be used as a “vacation home” and not her primary residence, according to documents obtained by NBC News that appear to undercut...

There was a viral video of some loser lefty saying her favorite part about Charlie Kirk's assassination is that Charlie wasn't "martyr material." It looks like she was wrong. Yes, in one night Turning Point received requests for 18,000 new chapters. That could nearly double the organization's reach. We might even count it as a Babylon Bee prophecy partially fulfilled. This is truly a turning point.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino appears on Fox News shortly after Director Kash Patel to outline his perspectives on the investigation into the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Deputy Bongino also wants viewers to know the investigation has been emotionally challenging for him due to his friendship with Charlie Kirk. Thankfully, Bongino notes he expects to be okay as the investigation continues. WATCH:

Megyn Kelly exposes the mainstream media lies about Charlie Kirk “F*** you for not doing your homework and just trying to paint him as some crazy racist — These people need to be defeated, not reasoned with” - New York Times was saying about Charlie was, oh, he was very controversial. He said things like Martin Luther King was a bad guy. Yes, he did say that. You know why? Because MLK's own biographer, a Pulitzer Prize winning biographer, broke the story that MLK was in back rooms allowing women on his staff to get sexually molested by others right...

Very enjoyable video to watch seeing all these evil doers fired, especially seeing that celebrator of `Charlie's assassination woman now crying, “What am I going to do now with no job?”. Let's hope she goes to hell. Hegseth has also sacked that crazy black captain in the army who made videos celebrating Charlie's killing and sacked plenty of other far left crazies too, Lets face it, America does not need lunatics in the military.

District Court Judge Kristen Simmons dismissed charges of election fraud against 15 Michigan Republicans who agreed to be the state's electors in the 2020 presidential election. "Historically, there have been other instances where the issue of which electors really represent the voters' choice has been disputed," she observed. "This is not fraud or a coup d'etat. It is a precautionary step in case recounts or reassessments of vote tallies reverse the results initially reported after the vote counting has been concluded. Both Democrats and Republicans have used this step. Once the winner is determined only one set of electors actually...

When Manners Disappear: A Society Without RestraintManners are often dismissed as superficial — just a list of rules about saying “please” or chewing with your mouth closed. But at their core, manners are much more than that. They are the quiet architecture that holds a civilized society together. They are the social grease that allows people to live near one another, work together, share space, and not come to blows over every disagreement.It’s my belief that societies create manners not just to promote politeness, but to control human emotions — especially the more destructive ones: anger, resentment, jealousy, and cruelty....

Rep. Jasmine Crockett has compared the work of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to “slave patrols” during an appearance on MSNBC’s Velshi on Sunday morning. “As somebody who understands history, when I see ICE, I see slave patrols,” she remarked. “If you understand the history of policing in this country, then you understand that they were born out of slave patrols.” Watch: VIDEO AT LINK................ ICE agents are responsible for enforcing America’s immigration laws and carrying out the mass deportations that President Trump campaigned on. Slave patrols were historically organized groups of armed militias in the American South, who...

The FBI confirmed Monday morning DNA samples found at the spot where Charlie Kirk’s assassin hid positively match the suspect now in custody, Tyler Robinson. FBI Director Kash Patel made the revelation on Fox & Friends. He confirmed DNA matching alleged assassin Robinson, 22, was found on a towel that covered the murder weapon when it was thrown away in nearby woods. A screwdriver found in the sniper’s position on the UVU rooftop also returned a positive match.

At what point will Leftists start asking themselves whether they're the bad guys here? A grieving Colorado family put up a memorial to Charlie Kirk in their backyard. It wasn't long before deranged leftists set it on fire and vandalized the cars parked in their driveway. 👇 A family in Colorado put up a beautiful memorial along their fence to honor Charlie.Vandals BURNED IT DOWN and SMASHED their car windows.These vandals are evil.Will @GovofCO condemn this??
