Smith was purportedly targeting dozens of the attendees of a rally protesting the...

Far-right extremists are attempting to incite an insurrection to hasten the downfall of what they see as a deeply corrupt U.S. government. Some could resort to deadly acts of terrorism.

Former Bush strategist Matthew Dowd said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that former President Donald Trump was facilitating ongoing “domestic terrorism.” Dowd said, “I mean, obviously, January 6 is a seminal moment in our country’s history, but it’s really a moment combined with a lot of other moments. This, in fact, is domestic terrorism, which has completely surfaced in our country, and it has all of the elements of domestic terrorism with the added element, it has cells around the country, it has actions, it has intent, it has weapons, it has radicalization. It has communication channels that do it, which...

Lumping Donald Trump with Osama Bin Laden? That's going too easy on the former president! At least, if you ask CNN's "national security analyst" Juliette Kayyem, a former Obama DHS assistant secretary. Appearing on Thursday morning's New Day, Kayyem said that when a year ago in an Atlantic article she depicted Trump as "the leader of a terror movement," she was, as she recently tweeted, actually being "too kind" to him!Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

U.S. Navy ships this week seized approximately 1,400 AK-47 assault rifles and 226,600 rounds of ammunition from a stateless fishing vessel during a flag verification boarding in the North Arabian Sea on December 20, the Navy’s 5th Fleet said in a statement. The U.S. Navy patrol coastal ships, USS Tempest (PC 2) and USS Typhoon (PC 5), found the weapons during a search conducted by embarked U.S. Coast Guard personnel in accordance with customary international law. The illicit weapons and ammunition were later transported to guided-missile destroyer USS O’Kane (DDG 77) where they await final disposition.

Goldsmiths activists restrict entry to 'Palestinian liberation' discussionJews and white people were banned from a student meeting at Goldsmiths, University of London, that discussed “defending Palestine”. The meeting last month, which was strictly limited to students who were “African, Arab, Asian, Caribbean and other black communities”, was part of an effort by pro-Palestine activists to use a student strike against job cuts at the university to campaign for their cause. On the first day of the strike, which began in November, an advertisement for “Palestinian liberation” was shared online while Palestine flags and banners appeared on the picket line. This...

12/10/2021 Washington D.C. (International Christian Concern) – Today, I want to share with you footage from the aftermath of an attack in Nigeria. In this attack, 10 Christians were killed when a mob of 500 Fulani militants swept into their village. You would assume that an attack of this scale would elicit a response from the Nigerian government. However, attacks of this nature have been ongoing for the past 20 years and the silence is deafening. While the government claims to be doing its best to curb the violence, the reality paints a different picture of a Muslim-led government allowing...

VIDEO: Four years ago, we explained what Hamas, the terrorist organization that has controlled Gaza since 2006, had been up to since their rise to power. Now, we're revisiting the subject... and not much has changed. Hamas uses its power to benefit the people of Gaza, right? Wrong. Instead of using its power to benefit the people of Gaza, Hamas spends the majority of its resources on terrorist activities. During Operation Guardian of the Walls (May 10–21, 2021), Hamas fired over 4,300 rockets at Israel. Hamas' rocket launch sites, 'Metro' terror tunnel network, and other terror infrastructure cost millions of...

A judge ruled Friday that a man charged with killing 10 people at a Colorado supermarket earlier this year is mentally incompetent to stand trial and ordered him to be treated at the state mental hospital to see if he can be made well enough to face prosecution. Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, 22, is accused of opening fire at a busy King Soopers in the college town of Boulder in March, killing a police officer, shoppers and several store employees. Four doctors have now determined Alissa is not mentally competent to participate in court proceedings, and he has “deteriorated” over...

Waukesha is so little-known that even some American commentators struggled to pronounce the town’s name this week. I noticed the error because I lived in this part of Milwaukee for six months. My wife grew up in Waukesha County (you can hear the pronunciation at this link). In 2019, I worked many days in a local coffee shop along the stretch of road that became the site of so much evil and tragedy on Sunday. Darrell E. Brooks, a 39-year-old career criminal, killed six people and injured 62 more when he sped, zigzagging, through the City of Waukesha’s 58th Annual...

An analysis by the Washington Free Beacon shows that the mainstream media, unlike its obsession with the Kyle Rittenhouse “white supremacist” narrative, has lost interest in the massacre of six people and the injury of 40 more at a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, a suburb of Milwaukee. On Sunday, Darrell Brooks, 39, allegedly plowed his maroon SUV through the parade, running over grandmothers and children alike, and creating a horrific scene that was described by CNN, MSNBC, CBS, The Washington Post, and other outlets as an “incident” and a “crash.”

BUCK: We’re diving deep into the latest on out-of-control crime situation in a lot of American cities, plus updates on a lot of stories including — I would like to know where we are with Waukesha after yesterday the media telling us, the general news consensus was there would be a press conference, Clay. And I remember doing this, doing a hit on CNN years ago, back when CNN used to actually have conservatives on. But I was doing counter-terrorism analysis. And I remember it was the day of — it was Bastille Day in France back in 2016. There...

CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, and other corporate media outlets we checked today have effectively halted coverage of the Waukesha massacre and suspect Darrell Brooks. Their frontpages have zero mentions of either on them as of Thursday, a mere four days after the alleged vehicular murder of six people happened. They ARE covering a vehicular murder story, though. As I Tweeted:

As if dealing with the Taliban as a "partner" and taking the Houthis off the terrorist watch list weren't enough, Joe Biden has decided to succor another terrorist group: FARC. He took them off the terrorist watch list. Most people don't remember them, but these were the vile Marxist narco-terrorists who terrorized Colombia for 60 years and then got off scot-free based on a "peace deal" from a lousy Colombian president whose hankering for a Nobel prize was so strong that he literally ignored a popular referendum rejecting such a deal. They had good reason: in FARC's war on that...

A YouTube video of Xinjiang detention facilities has rekindled concern over China's crackdown on ethnic minorities. Researchers say the videos offer new evidence, but many fear for the vlogger's safety.A 20-minute video featuring more than a dozen detention facilities in China's Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region has offered fresh evidence and renewed the discussion around China's large-scale crackdown on ethnic minorities in the region. The video was filmed by a Chinese man named Guanguan, who went to Xinjiang after reading a series of articles from US news outlet BuzzFeed News, indicating the locations of several detention centers in the region. His...

WAUKESHA, Wis. - The suspect in a Christmas parade crash in suburban Milwaukee that killed six people was in court Tuesday where first-degree intentional homicide charges were filed, a crime that can carry the stiffest penalty possible under Wisconsin law — mandatory life in prison. The prosecutor in the case indicated a sixth count of first-degree intentional homicide will be filed – because they have learned of a sixth death, a child, as a result of the Christmas parade tragedy.
