A North Carolina police officer who declared he was “Antifa” in a post on the social media app BlueSky was fired Monday by the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, according to the News & Observer. Brian Edwards, 37, served as a detention officer for the agency while making the posts and had been promoted to corporal in May, the News & Observer reported. Edwards’ posts included calls for subjecting “traitors” to “war crimes trials” and hinted at executing them. “I maintain that the biggest mistake the US government has ever made was letting the traitors from the civil war back into...

A gunman shouting “Free Palestine” killed one person a country club wedding in New Hampshire, US. The man opened fire as the bride and groom were about to start their first dance on Saturday night, according to witnesses. Two others were wounded. Hunter Nadeau, 23, has been arrested and charged with the murder of 59-year-old Robert Steven DeCesare, police said. “Additional charges likely will be brought, including for the additional shooting victims,” John Formella, attorney general for New Hampshire, said in a statement.

There's an ongoing debate, happening almost exclusively on the far left, about whether or not Jimmy Kimmel even said what everyone else thinks he said. Rolling Stone is leading this charge.“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel said during his monologue on Monday. Kimmel’s slightly ambiguous comments came after conservatives spent the weekend blaming the left and transgender people for Kirk’s killing. At the time, the...

FULL TITLE: Democratic Socialists convention is ridiculed as a 'meeting of snowflakes' after one delegate complains his 'sensory overload' has been triggered by 'whispering' - accidentally sparking a debate over gendered nouns Delegates at the Democratic Socialists of America convention are being ridiculed on social media after videos of them interrupting their 'comrades' to complain of being 'triggered' by chattering crowds and the use of gendered pronouns went viral. The 2019 DSA National Convention in Atlanta, Georgia, concluded on Sunday but is still inspiring conversation online, particularly among those who are opposed to the Democratic Socialist ideals. Social media users...

New York’s most notorious revolutionary tourist — “sandalista” Lori Berenson — is back in Manhattan from Peru, where she served 15 years in prison for terrorism. Forgive us if we don’t put out a welcome mat. The LaGuardia HS grad and MIT dropout has been stuck in Peru by law until her full 20-year sentence expired. Now that it has, she’s heading home to her parents’ Kips Bay apartment. Though lionized by the left and worshiped by The New York Times, Berenson, now 46, was no naive idealist. She spent years traveling Central America with Marxist groups until she hooked...

Since 2016, George Soros’s Open Society Foundations (OSF), now run with his son Alexander, has poured over $80 million into groups tied to terrorism or extremist violence. The evidence is stark: Open Society has sent millions of dollars into U.S.-based organizations that engage in “direct actions” that the FBI defines as domestic terrorism. These groups include the Center for Third World Organizing and its militant partner Ruckus Society, which trained activists in property destruction and sabotage during the 2020 riots, and the Sunrise Movement, which endorsed the Antifa-linked Stop Cop City campaign, in which activists currently face over 40 domestic...

I’d like to see [the nation] heal. But we’re dealing with a radical left group of lunatics, and they don’t play fair, and they never did,” President Donald Trump told NBC News.

Democratic strategist Jamal Simmons said Monday that he was “absolutely” worried that President Trump will “unleash the Justice Department on the Democratic Party.” “The question then becomes the president’s deputy chief of staff came out today, and called the Democratic Party an ‘extremist organization,’ after the president said that he was going to take action against extremist organizations,” Simmons told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on “The Source,” in a clip highlighted by Mediaite. “So, the question arises in my mind, is the president of the United States going to outlaw the Democratic Party? Is that where we’re headed? Is the president...

"You currently have one side willing to talk and extend a microphone to anyone, and one side that shoots to kill when they do." —Aimee Terese on X. When Brian De Palma’s movie, Dressed to Kill, came out in 1980, this was a different country. Like Hitchcock’s Psycho before it (1960), both films depicted men seeking to become women who are murderously deranged by their wishful fantasies. Now, our country has become murderously deranged by the same fantasy writ large. These derangements are acted out now by a segment of the population that calls itself “the trans community.” This is...

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and Vice President J.D. Vance discuss their effort to combat political violence and radicalization: VANCE: A lot of people are very worried about how we got here in the first place and you have the crazies on the far left who are saying, "Oh, Stephen Miller and JD Vance, they're gonna go after constitutionally protected speech." No, no, no, we're gonna go after the NGO network that foments, facilitates and engages in violence -- that's not OK. Violence is not OK in our system, and we want to make it less likely...

The radical Left’s poison has seeped so deep into American institutions that even the people entrusted with our lives at 30,000 feet are openly glorifying political assassinations. According to Milo Yiannopoulos, Andrew Schweizer, a pilot affiliated with United and SkyWest Airlines, was exposed for celebrating the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, calling him a “f***ing Nazi” and sneering that the “only good kind of Nazi is a dead Nazi.” In now-viral posts, Schweizer left no doubt about where he stood: “This is all going to be over one way or another soon and so I don’t want...

Charlie Kirk’s alleged shooter Tyler Robinson was living with a transgender partner who was in the process of transitioning from a male to a female, a law enforcement source confirmed to The Post Saturday. That individual, who has yet to be identified by the authorities, is now fully cooperating with the FBI on its investigation into the fatal shooting of the conservative activist, the source added. The relationship was first reported by Fox News’ Brooke Singman. Text messages and other communications that the transgender individual traded with Robinson, 22, helped the feds nab the accused assassin. Federal and state authorities...

America is currently sick. The young conservative organizer and media personality Charlie Kirk was just murdered in a political assassination by a 22-year-old ‘anti-fascist’ and trans advocate, Tyler Robinson. As planned, he eliminated the most astute and successful political activist in a generation. Indeed, Kirk may well have ensured that Donald Trump won the 2024 election by not just increasing his youth vote by 6 percent since 2020 but, more importantly, by margins in the swing states of 15-24 percent, ensuring Trump’s victory. No sooner was he killed than thousands on left-wing social media erupted in celebration—among them scores of...

The assassination of conservative pundit Charlie Kirk marks the latest example of a GROWING WAVE of murders and other shootings committed by transgender people and others advocating for their rights. Audrey Hale, a transgender shooter who murdered six people at Nashville’s Convent School in March 2023, raged about hating America, being miserable while being raised as a girl and wanting to “kill all the white kids.” “I only wore some nice girl clothes as a cover-up from the truth, which I denied myself all these years. And I hated all of it,” Hale wrote in diary entries released following the...

A slew of deranged users on Bluesky sent a barrage of threats to prominent Republicans and outspoken media personalities immediately after conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated Wednesday. Posters called for Tesla tycoon Elon Musk, conservative podcasters Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh and Michael Knowles, as well as “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling, to be “next” in the hours after Kirk, 31, was pronounced dead, according to screenshots shared by one user. Some brazen accounts called for outright violence, including one who wrote, “I hope they shoot Ben Shapiro next,” while another compared the violence to a “game of whack a...

A professor at Texas State University was axed on Wednesday after a video of him allegedly advocating for political violence during a socialism conference went viral. Tom Alter, a now-former associate history professor at TSU and member of Socialist Horizon, spoke at the online Revolutionary Socialism Conference 2025 on Sept. 7, according to screen recordings shared on X. During his brief talk, Alter launched into a tirade about the “US Capitalist crisis” that he claimed is exacerbating issues like education, mental health and even basic infrastructure. “What makes the current crisis an extra problem for capitalists is the willingness of...

I am not really a fan of Elon Musk however; I can find nothing that I object or disagree with in his diatribe that Musk shares. I must give credit when credit is deserved. It was posted 8 days ago, and watching it I think you will understand why I mention this fact, as he mentions political violence in his illuminating well thought out message. He is spot on with his analysis. It's a 24.5-minute video that is well worth the time to watch: Elon Musk Explains Why Democrats’ Hidden Agenda Will Destroy America
