      Despite calls for many Democratic politicians and pundits to temper their inflammatory rhetoric, this week has proven a further escalation in this dangerous form of rage rhetoric. DNC Chair Ken Martin just told MSNBC’s “The Beat” that “we may be nearing” the moment when “elections don’t matter and then the resistance looks completely different.” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called on people to “forcefully rise up.” With political violence on the rise, these leaders are clearly fueling the mob in hopes that they and their party can ride the wave of rage back into power. History suggests that it is...

      Van Jones blames “the Jews” for media silence on Nigerian massacres—but the real reason isn’t anti-Semitic conspiracy; it’s the left’s selective outrage and ideological blind spots. Van Jones, the CNN host and commentator, recently complained that neither the global left nor the mainstream media are covering the horrific violence against Nigerian civilians by Islamic terrorists. True, they are not reporting the slaughter. Truer still, they should be. However, Van Jones went completely off the rails when he blamed “the Jews.” Or as he put it, “No Jews, no news”—a stereotyped statement as anti-Semitic as it is untrue. In truth, lots...
    
  
  
    
    
      Franklin Graham recently reminded us of something I’ve always admired about Charlie Kirk: he stood firmly on biblical truth, but he did it with compassion. He debated boldly, yet never with malice. He modeled what it looks like to stand on God’s Word while still loving those who disagreed. That’s what struck me most about Charlie’s ministry.When culture calls biblical truth hate speech, Christians must remember that speaking God’s Word is the highest form of love.Charlie Kirk’s legacy of truth with compassionCharlie never treated debates like a chance to humiliate others. He approached them as opportunities to present God’s truth....
    
  
  
    
    
      The line between church and state was nowhere to be found at Sunday's service, which drew masses of Charlie Kirk followers. A capacity crowd filled Glendale’s State Farm Stadium on Sunday, with thousands of people shut out of the 63,000-seat venue and directed to overflow seating at the nearby Desert Diamond Arena. Then, in both venues, they sat through a more than five-hour marathon of unapologetic Christian nationalism in honor of Charlie Kirk, the Arizona-based right-wing activist who was murdered on Sept. 10 at a college event in Utah. Christian nationalism is both a political and religious ideology that seeks...
    
  
  
    
    
      Republicans in Congress are launching an aggressive campaign to punish individuals they accuse of posthumously smearing Charlie Kirk, threatening to bring them before lawmakers, defund entities that protect them and oust them from positions of power. They are also trying to castigate one of their own. On Monday evening, two House Republicans introduced resolutions to censure Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota) and remove her from her congressional committees for comments she made about the conservative influencer during an interview with liberal commentator Mehdi Hasan. During the interview, Omar expressed “empathy” for Kirk’s wife and children but also chastised those who “completely...
    
  
  
    
    
      Conservative talkshow host Erick Erickson tore into “moron” Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday after she claimed “hate speech” did not count as “free speech” and would be targeted by her office.During an interview with former White House official Katie Miller, Bondi said, “There’s free speech and then there’s hate speech, and there is no place, especially now, especially after what happened to Charlie, in our society.”She warned, “We will absolutely target you, go after you if you are targeting anyone with hate speech, anything, and that’s across the aisle.”

      South African opposition politician Julius Malema has been convicted of hate speech by the country's equality court, following remarks he made at a rally in 2022. Malema, leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party, often sparks controversy in a nation where, 31 years after apartheid ended, racial tensions still linger. After an incident where a white man allegedly assaulted an EFF member, Malema said: "No white man is going to beat me up... you must never be scared to kill. A revolution demands that at some point there must be killing." The equality court ruled that these remarks "demonstrated...
    
  
  
    
    
      Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones, a Democrat, told a vigorously agreeing MSNBC host Ali Velshi on Saturday that offering thoughts and prayers following a tragedy like the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting is “theological malpractice” and accused those doing so of “idolatry.” Jones is a frequent cable news guest and far-left activist lawmaker who came to prominence when he and other members helped lead protesters in occupying the Tennessee House to protest against guns.
    
  
  
    
    
      Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called out the dark irony of people offering their thoughts and prayers following the deadly shooting at a Catholic School Mass on Wednesday. “These kids were literally praying,” he told reporters after a gunman killed two kids and wounded 17 others at Annunciation Church. “Don’t just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now,” said Frey, who’s advocated for basic gun control measures like universal background checks and red‑flag laws.
    
  
  
    
    
      Former MSNBC anchor Joy Reid condemned President Donald Trump, Elvis Presley and others on Friday as some of history’s many "mediocre White men" whose achievements are stolen or counterfeit. Reid criticized Trump’s review of the Smithsonian during an interview with Wajahat Ali for his "The Left Hook" substack, in an episode titled, "How Mediocre White Men and Their Fragility Are Destroying America." They argued that across America’s institutions, there is a phenomenon of "mediocre White men" with no actual culture of their own who co-opt the achievements of Black people to aggrandize themselves. Ali opened the episode by talking about...
    
  
  
    
    
      This week, American Eagle, which brought us baby tees and low-rise denim in the aughts, debuted an advertisement campaign starring actor Sydney Sweeney. Sweeney, 27, is featured doing all sorts of Americana things in her American Eagle denim — like leaning over the hood of a white Mustang or lying on the floor holding a long-haired German shepherd puppy. At the end of each video, an off-screen voice speaks over blocky letters declaring that Sweeney — blonde, blue-eyed and white — “has great jeans.” The wordplay was made even more explicit when American Eagle posted a video of Sweeney standing...

      The Irish government is reportedly set to reject demands from the European Union to implement hate speech legislation after Dublin abandoned plans to do so last year. In September of last year, the Irish government scrapped plans to criminalize so-called hate speech in its Criminal Justice Bill, which would have allowed the state to send someone to prison for up to five years for “incitement to hatred against persons on account of their protected characteristics”. The move to abandon the controversial section of the bill came as Justice Minister Helen McEntee admitted that it did “not have a consensus” among...
    
  
  
    
    
      ESPN star Stephen A. Smith suggested on Wednesday that Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark was responsible for some of the resentment toward her in the WNBA. Smith and "First Take" panelists Monica McNutt and Christopher "Mad Dog" Russo broke down the skirmishes between Fever and Connecticut Sun players. Clark was on the receiving end of an eye poke from Sun guard Jacy Sheldon and was then bumped to the floor by Marina Mabrey. Clark and Sun players were talking trash throughout the game as tensions began to rise early and eventually boil over. Fever guard Sophie Cunningham also got into...
    
  
  
    
    
      Co-hosts of ABC’s "The View" on Friday feuded over how the Democratic Party should change its game plan after losing male voters. After their decisive defeat in November, Democrats are still figuring out how they should change their strategy and move forward as a party. The New York Times recently published a report claiming that Democrats are spending $20 million on a study called "Speaking with American Men: A Strategic Plan." The study is a project to "study the syntax, language and content that gains attention and virality in these spaces" of male voters. Co-host Joy Behar scoffed at the...
    
  
  
    
    
      He cannot 'guarantee' what will happen in the future, the EFF leader said in a recent interview Julius Malema says he has not called for the murder of white people, "at least for now." In an interview with TRT World, published on Monday, Malema said he could not guarantee what would happen in the future, and warned that a revolution would happen if things continued as they are now. "I'm saying to you, we've not called for the killing of white people, at least for now. I can't guarantee the future." Asked by the presenter if he understood that to...
    
  
  
    
    
      Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, said Democrats were eyeing the "safest White boy" in the 2028 presidential race, hinting at "one specific candidate" being floated by the party's donors, during a podcast conversation this week. "It is this fear that the people within the party, within the primary system, will have about voting for a woman because every time we voted for a woman, we’ve lost, so far," she said in a clip posted to Instagram. "And I think that that’s a natural fear because we just want to win." SiriusXM host Clay Cane posted the clip to Instagram on Friday,...
