After Dallas ICE Shooting, Trump Slams the Left: ‘Stop Demonizing Law Enforcement’– townhall.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Donald Trump has reacted to a shooting in Texas this morning at an U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement facility. A shooter killed two detainees and injured a third before he apparently killed himself.
ICE and Dallas police have secured the scene at our Dallas field office, where a shooter opened fire on the facility this morning, firing indiscriminately at the building, including at a transport van in the sallyport.
We can confirm that three detainees were shot while inside…
Trump said that the shooter wrote “anti-ICE” on shell casings.
“I have been briefed on the deadly shooting at the ICE Field Office in Dallas, Texas.
“It has now been revealed the deranged shooter wrote “Anti-ICE” on his shell casings. This is despicable! The Brave Men and Women of ICE are just trying to do their jobs, and remove the “WORST of the WORST” Criminals out of our Country, but they are facing an unprecedented increase in threats, violence, and attacks by Deranged Radical Leftists. This violence is the result of the Radical Left Democrats constantly demonizing Law Enforcement, calling for ICE to be demolished, and comparing ICE Officers to “Nazis.”
“The continuing violence from Radical Left Terrorists, in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, must be stopped. ICE Officers, and other Brave Members of Law Enforcement, are under grave threat. We have already declared ANTIFA a Terrorist Organization, and I will be signing an Executive Order this week to dismantle these Domestic Terrorism Networks. I AM CALLING ON ALL DEMOCRATS TO STOP THIS RHETORIC AGAINST ICE AND AMERICA’S LAW ENFORCEMENT, RIGHT NOW! The Trump Administration is fully committed to backing Law Enforcement, Strong Borders, securing our Homeland, deporting Violent Illegal Criminals, and fully rooting out the Left Wing Domestic Terrorism that is terrorizing our Country. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
The White House confirmed the details.
“I have been briefed on the deadly shooting at the ICE Field Office in Dallas, Texas. It has now been revealed the deranged shooter wrote “Anti-ICE” on his shell casings… I AM CALLING ON ALL DEMOCRATS TO STOP THIS RHETORIC AGAINST ICE & AMERICA’S LAW ENFORCEMENT.” – @POTUS
Trump’s dizzying corkscrews on Ukraine may wind up back where he began– www.thesun.co.uk Source Link Excerpt:
DONALD Trump doesn’t do U-Turns. He does rollercoaster loop-the-loops.
So with all his dizzying corkscrew turns and sudden policy swerves there is every risk he ends up back where he began – sucking up to tyrant Vladimir Putin and scorning President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Before Ukraine shows any relief at Trump’s sudden, full-throated support they will want to see concrete action.
That means weapons without restrictions for Kyiv and penalties for Moscow. Sanctions must hurt the Kremlin and threaten Putin’s rule.

Germany, France Mapping Out Medical Response to Battlefield Casualties in Potential NATO-Russia War– legalinsurrection.com Source Link Excerpt:
Despite Russian President Vladimir Putin’s feigned interest in a negotiated end to the Russia-Ukraine war during last month’s summit in Alaska with President Donald Trump, his subsequent actions make clear he has no interest in pursuing a settlement.
Since the meeting, Russian attacks on Ukraine have intensified, and a series of recent Russian jet and drone incursions into the airspace of NATO members Poland, Romania, and Estonia have deepened Western fears over the potential for a wider war — one Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has long warned of.
Although Putin denies he is gearing up for a confrontation with NATO, he has repeatedly shown that his word is meaningless.
As dramatic as the prospect of war with Russia may seem, Reuters reports that Germany and France are already making plans for precisely that scenario. According to Reuters:
Germany’s armed forces are planning how to treat a potential 1,000 wounded troops per day should a large-scale conflict between NATO and Russia break out, and amid long-standing warnings by the alliance that Moscow could be capable of launching an attack from 2029.
…
Ukrainian soldiers describe the drone-infested corridor covering about 10 km either side of the frontline as the “kill zone” because remotely piloted unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) deployed by both sides can swiftly spot and neutralise targets.
Has Trump woken up to Putin’s Ukraine game?– www.washingtonexaminer.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Donald Trump, on his Truth Social platform, stated on Tuesday that Ukraine, with the support of NATO and the European Union, could “fight and win all of Ukraine back in its original form.” He described Russia as a “paper tiger” and said Ukraine “is only getting better.”
It is too early to call this a new policy. Trump has changed his position on Ukraine many times. He has alternated between sympathetic remarks about Russian President Vladimir Putin and critical statements about Ukraine, while also moving from skepticism toward Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to support for the Ukrainian leader. Still, if Trump follows through on his recent statement, the prospect of real peace becomes more plausible.
That’s because Moscow is unlikely to reconsider its maximalist position on Ukraine unless it faces the real prospect of a Ukrainian victory or heavy pushback by the United States. Providing Ukraine with new weapons, imposing secondary sanctions on Moscow, and the targeting of Russian oil revenues could convince the Kremlin that continued war is unwinnable. In turn, Putin might come to a more serious negotiation position.
Until now, however, Moscow’s version of peace has always meant Kyiv’s capitulation. The Kremlin’s goal is not simply to seize land but to erase Ukraine’s sovereignty, collapse its statehood, and diminish Western international power. On the battlefield, Russia has been unable to secure a decisive victory for three and a half years. If it also comes to understand that it cannot force concessions at the negotiating table, that may be the point at which it is prepared for a more practical conversation.
Fox Host Under Fire For Suggesting ICE Shooter Was MAGA-Aligned Without Evidence– trendingpoliticsnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
A rush was on Wednesday morning to deduce the motive of a gunman who killed one and wounded three others at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas, Texas on Wednesday morning.
But a Fox News host stepped over the line for many viewers when he suggested the shooter may have been carrying out “his own form” of justice by targeting illegal immigrants being detained at the facility.
Over a “breaking news” chyron, Fox reporters discussed what may have motivated the individual, described in initial reports as a white male, before turning to Trey Gowdy for his thoughts.
“Talk to me about this moment, legally,” the anchor asks Gowdy.
“To know the motive, you’ve gotta know the target,” he replied while suggesting that authorities will try to scour the man’s online presence and interview his coworkers to “get a sense of if he was aiming at ICE agents.”
“Or… or, was he implementing his own form of due process for these detainees and killing them?” Gowdy speculated.
“I know people love motive and in this particular case I want to know the motive,” he continued before pivoting back to safe territory, talking about how ICE agents have been “vilified for years.”
Gavin Newsom Painted a Target on ICE Agents Hours Before Attack on Texas Facility– www.westernjournal.com Source Link Excerpt:
Modern Democrats remain historically unpopular because they offer nothing besides lies and projection of their own authoritarian inclinations.
Worse yet, the more they lose, the more they incite and resort to violence.
For instance, on Tuesday’s episode of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” — Democratic propagandist Stephen Colbert’s moribund late-night talk show — Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California broke into an insane hyperbolic rant about President Donald Trump and the “authoritarian” Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents — a rant that preceded a deadly attack on a Texas ICE facility by only a few hours.
“There was a shooting this morning at the Dallas @ICEgov Field Office,” Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem wrote Wednesday morning on the social media platform X. “Details are still emerging but we can confirm there were multiple injuries and fatalities. The shooter is deceased by a self-inflicted gun shot wound.”
“While we don’t know motive yet,” she continued, “we know that our ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence against them. It must stop. Please pray for the victims and their families.”

After Newsom Targeted ICE, Shooter Tries To Murder ICE Agents– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
Two people are dead after a shooter whose bullet casings reportedly had “anti-ICE messages” on them targeted an ICE facility in Dallas, Texas. Just hours earlier, California Gov. Gavin Newsom described immigration enforcement as “authoritarian” and suggested people would “push back” in an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
At least two individuals were killed with a third injured after a gunman opened fire on an ICE transportation vehicle in Dallas early Wednesday morning. Investigators announced that rounds found near the shooter — who died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound — were inscribed with anti-ICE messaging. Notably, there was a bomb threat at the same facility last month, according to DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin.
Officials blamed increasingly inflammatory rhetoric directed toward ICE and law enforcement for the shooting.
Acting field office director for ICE Dallas Joshua Johnson said: “This is the second time I have had to stand in front of you and talk about a shooter at one of my facilities. And I think that the takeaway from all of this is that the rhetoric has to stop. There are people out there who are seeing what is being placed online, and they’re coming and they’re doing acts of violence against ICE employees. So that’s kind of all I have for today is that it’s just got to stop. It’s dangerous. And people are losing their lives.”
Before Attack On ICE, NBC Ran ICE-Holds-Child-Hostage Hoax– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
Just 24 hours before a shooter opened fire on an ICE vehicle in Dallas, killing two and wounding a third, NBC News ran a hoax accusing ICE agents of holding hostage a 5-year-old girl in order to “pressure” her criminal suspect father to surrender.
NBC News’ Matt Lavietes wrote that “Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents held a 5-year-old autistic girl outside her Massachusetts home to pressure her father to surrender to authorities last week, according to the girl’s family.”
The story quoted the 5-year-old’s mother as saying: “They took my daughter, she’s 5-years-old. She has autism spectrum. … Give me my daughter back.”
The woman, who asked not to be identified, told an NBC affiliate that her husband “managed to run back into the parking lot of my house, but they grabbed” the 5-year-old.
ICE Shooting in Dallas a Consequence of the Left’s Demonization– www.dailysignal.com Source Link Excerpt:
America just experienced another tragic and preventable act of violence. Joshua Jahn, a criminal radicalized by hateful anti-law enforcement rhetoric from the Democrats, committed an act of leftist terrorism against an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas. He undoubtedly was targeting law enforcement agents. He killed one person and wounded two more before turning the gun on himself.
The mainstream media can play dumb all they want, but we know what the motive is, and we do not need CNN or MSNBC to confirm it. This terrorist attack was just another deadly consequence of years of demonization by the Left against law enforcement officers who risk their lives to keep our country safe.
Democrats built this climate of hate. For years, leftist activist allies have painted ICE and all law enforcement as evil villains. They smear ICE agents as racist, nazis, white supremacists, and convinced a large segment of the public that these officers are enemies rather than protectors. When you use this type of rhetoric, you are not engaging in debate. You are encouraging violence. The blood spilled in Dallas rests on those who have fed this narrative: Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Hakeem Jeffries, Gavin Newsom, just to name a few.
This is not an isolated incident. Radical agitators across the country have escalated their attacks on ICE. I fear this will only become more common and more violent as the Left continues to deny their role in provoking it. The violence has escalated from tire slashing and brick throwing to this outright assassination attempt.

Club Flyer Cheering Kirk’s Murder Found At Georgetown University– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
A club flyer reportedly posted at Georgetown University celebrates the assassination of Charlie Kirk and invites individuals to join its threatening efforts to forgo “ceremonial resistance and strongly worded letters.”
On Wednesday, The Charlie Kirk Show executive producer Andrew Kolvet posted a photograph of what appears to be a flyer from the John Brown Club on a bulletin board at the Washington, D.C.-based university. The sign reads, “Hey, Fascist! Catch! The only political group that celebrates when Nazis die.”
The phrase “Hey, Fascist! Catch!” is a reference to an engraving on one of the bullet casings that Kirk’s alleged killer had planned to use in his attack on the conservative thinker during his Sept. 10 speaking event at Utah Valley University. As witnessed throughout the past several years, left-wing propagandists have often used such harmful smears (“Nazis” and “fascists”) against mainstream conservatives for the purpose of incitement to violence.
Also included on the flyer is a QR code, which, when scanned, takes users to a Google Forms page with a note that reads, “We’re building a community that’s done with ceremonial resistance and strongly worded letters. If you want to make a real change in your community, let us now [sic] below.”
According to Not the Bee, the John Brown Club is “a leftwing gun-rights group named after the 19th-century anti-slavery fighter who tried to initiate a slave revolt in the South by capturing the United States weapons arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia.” The organization, the outlet reported, “aims to organize leftist militias to counter what they believe is rightwing extremism, AKA normal American Christian dads like Charlie Kirk.”

TSU President Dwayne Tucker announced an investigation into how the group accessed the campus, indicating plans for discussions with students about the incident.
A conservative “Fearless Debate” group was removed from Tennessee State University on Tuesday amid an uproar in which students surrounded the group and aggressively taunted, surrounded, and yelled at them, videos show.
The group states they wanted to honor Charlie Kirk’s memory by having debates on college campuses, but critics say their unapproved visit, Make America Great Again hats, and inflammatory language — “DEI should be illegal” and “Deport all illegals now! Let’s talk” — was to blame for the raucous reaction at the HBCU.
News 5 Nashville reported that campus police “escorted the group from university grounds. TSU said its students acted ‘professionally and respectfully’ during the encounter. Social media videos showed TSU students shouting, filming, taking their signs, and following the group as they were led away.”
The Nashville chapter of the NAACP called the incident “an intentional effort to antagonize, disrupt and instill fear in a space meant to be safe and supportive for Black students.”

Kimmel Backers Silent On Dems’ Threats Against Broadcasters– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
When broadcasters first committed to kicking Jimmy Kimmel Live! off the airwaves over his egregious lies about Charlie Kirk’s assassination, leftists everywhere threw public tantrums accusing Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr of authoritarianism. In reality, the true government threat of bullying to broadcasters comes not from the FCC, but from Democrats who have threatened to take action against the media companies refusing to reinstate Kimmel’s timeslot.
Private TV station owners are, of course, not obligated under federal law to publicize certain content — especially if that content is, at best, a tone-deaf rejection of calls to turn down the temperature, and at worst and most likely, deliberate dishonesty designed to foment more division.
As if pretending the Trump administration forced broadcasters into “censoring” the late night host wasn’t enough, Politico even encouraged Kimmel that he had “precedent on his side” if he wanted to go before the Supreme Court. The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board additionally declared the Kimmel controversy was an example of “cancel culture and regulatory abuse.”
What Kimmel’s Return Really Says About Free Speech – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
The news that ABC has quietly reinstated Jimmy Kimmel to his late-night perch is being sold as a triumph for free speech, but the truth is more cynical and more troubling. Kimmel was not fired because he made a joke or voiced an opinion; he was suspended because he refused to apologize. That distinction matters, though few in the media want to spell it out. In America, you can say just about anything you want — but your employer can still show you the door if you embarrass them. In Kimmel’s case, he was told to issue a mea culpa for the timing and tone of his remarks aboutCharlie Kirk. He didn’t, and that’s why his show went dark. To pretend this was a First Amendment battle is to miss the point entirely.
No one is saying Kimmel doesn’t have the right to call Charlie Kirk an “a**hole” or worse. He can stand on the roof of his studio, shout it into a megaphone, and nobody can haul him away for it. That’s free speech. But ABC also has the right to discipline him if they think his words cross a line. Networks exercise that right all the time. Roseanne Barr tweeted something offensive, and she was gone by the next morning. Dave Chappelle tells jokes that offend progressive orthodoxy, and activists swarm Netflix demanding his cancellation. Scott Baio, who gave speeches supporting Donald Trump, was effectively blackballed from Hollywood altogether. There was no handwringing about free speech when those artists were sidelined. They weren’t rescued by a sympathetic network; they were shut out. Yet Kimmel gets a different standard. Why? Because he is one of their own.
This is what rankles. When comedians or commentators outside the approved ideological bubble speak freely, they are punished. When insiders cross a line, they get a slap on the wrist and a glossy press release about the “importance of diverse viewpoints.” That’s not free speech. That’s favoritism. And it’s a telltale sign that America’s cultural and corporate institutions are not neutral referees. They are for sale to the highest bidder.
ABC Affiliates Refuse To Back Down, Still Won’t Show Kimmel: ‘Spines Of Steel’– trendingpoliticsnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
Broadcasting giant Sinclair, which owns dozens of ABC affiliates across several states, confirmed Wednesday that it will continue to withhold airings of Jimmy Kimmel Live! until the titular host issues a formal apology for his comments about the Charlie Kirk assassination.
Kimmel was suspended for several days after he falsely claimed that the shooter was a “MAGA” supporter, prompting massive backlash against ABC and the show’s advertisers. After Sinclair and fellow broadcasting juggernaut Nextstar announced that they would be preempting Kimmel’s show in favor of news programming unless a retraction was issued, ABC announced that Kimmel’s show would be suspended “indefinitely.”
After several days of negotiations between Kimmel and the network, the host returned to the airwaves on Tuesday night. Kimmel did tearfully state that he did not intend to “celebrate the murder of a young man,” and apologized for anyone who thought his comments might have been taken out of context, though his statement fell short of an apology for the false statement in the eyes of Sinclair, according to a report from Fox News.
“Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will be preempting Jimmy Kimmel Live! across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming. Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show’s potential return,” the network announced Tuesday.
Nextstar also affirmed that they will be joining Sinclair in preempting Kimmel’s show until a retraction is issued.
Jimmy Kimmel Refuses To Condemn ‘ANTI ICE’ Shooting– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
A day after issuing a non-apology for lying about his alleged killer’s political beliefs, late-night “comedian” Jimmy Kimmel is now refusing to condemn an attack against ICE agents.
On Wednesday, a suspected sniper opened fire on an ICE transportation vehicle in Dallas, Texas, killing two and injuring another. All of those struck in the attack were detainees, and the alleged shooter died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to law enforcement.
While an investigation into the matter remains ongoing, early findings appear to indicate yet another instance of left-wing political violence. Hours after the shooting, FBI Director Kash Patel released an image of several unspent bullet casings seemingly belonging to the suspect, one of which is engraved with the phrase, “ANTI ICE.”
“These despicable, politically motivated attacks against law enforcement are not a one-off. We are only miles from Prarieland, Texas where just two months ago an individual ambushed a separate ICE facility targeting their officers,” Patel wrote in an accompanying statement on X. “It has to end and the FBI and our partners will lead these investigative efforts to see to it that those who target our law enforcement are pursued and brought to the fullest extent of justice.”
The incident occurred nearly two weeks after Charlie Kirk was assassinated, allegedly at the hands of a pro-trans leftist, while the former was speaking to students at a Utah-based university. During his opening monologue days after the horrific slaughter, Kimmel attempted to downplay the egregious act of political violence by suggesting the assassin was “MAGA.”
Jimmy Kimmel Likes Free Speech for Me, Not for Thee– www.dailysignal.com Source Link Excerpt:
Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel got his job back with ABC but forgive me if I don’t care too much about his underwhelming, delayed apology to keep himself on air or his defense of “free speech.”
Kimmel was briefly suspended by ABC, which is owned by Disney, after he made a comment that Charlie Kirk was assassinated by somebody who was “MAGA.”
Some called this comment a “joke,” but it certainly didn’t seem like it. Though, in fairness, I can’t recall the last time Kimmel—an alleged comedian—actually said something funny. That was probably reason enough to pull the late-night comic with a laughably small audience for network television off the air.
On Tuesday, Kimmel returned and sort of apologized in his opening monologue, which was a prerequisite from ABC for him returning to his show. Kimmel never actually apologized for or addressed the comments that got him suspended. He mentioned Kirk’s killing only once, then made it about himself, saying that he “gets a lot of threats.” He also thanked some conservatives for defending him.
I believe Kimmel is genuinely upset by what’s happened, and I want to forgive. But this is circumspect and avoids forthrightly admitting error. Regardless of what he now says was his professed intention, he said something that was very untrue and unfairly cast blame. https://t.co/NgnoiM0mzb
What if Johnny Carson mocked MLK’s death for laughs?– www.theblaze.com Source Link Excerpt:
What if, in 1968, after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., Johnny Carson opened “The Tonight Show” with jibes about how one of King’s own supporters had pulled the trigger? What if he followed with a gag suggesting that President Lyndon Johnson didn’t care much about losing a friend? Or how maybe we need to keep up the pressure on conservatives who think free speech includes engaging those who disagree with them in civil dialogue?
Does anyone believe NBC executives would have shrugged and said, “Let Johnny talk — free speech, you know”? Does anyone think Carson’s 12 million nightly viewers would have treated it as harmless banter and tuned in the next night with curiosity about what he might say next?
Jimmy Kimmel needs to ‘grow a pair,’ take his lumps, and find another venue.
When the members of the first Congress wrote the First Amendment, enshrining freedom of speech, they did it within the context of the words of John Adams: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
St. Paul puts it this way: “‘I have the right to do anything,’ you say — but not everything is beneficial. ‘I have the right to do anything’ — but I will not be mastered by anything” (1 Corinthians 6:12).
Sadly, I was included in an email from a dear relative who chided anyone who did not protest Jimmy Kimmel’s firing, citing the First Amendment. My relative felt very strongly about this. In his own words, if you didn’t loudly defend Kimmel, you needed to “grow a pair.”
3 More Left-Wing Attacks Follow Charlie Kirk Murder– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
Another day, another act of left-wing violence. Another act of left-wing violence, another media cover-up for their left-wing terrorist foot soldiers.
In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, the corporate media put an enormous amount of effort into a psy-op to make Americans believe the assassin was actually a Trump supporter.
While they did that, three more acts of left-wing violence took place: An attempted firebombing of a Fox News van, a shooting at an ABC News affiliate after Jimmy Kimmel’s well-deserved suspension, and, most recently, a shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas, Texas.
That is all just in a two-week timeframe, and does not take into account school shootings, other attacks on ICE, assassinations or assassination attempts, and other instances of left-wing violence Americans have seen increase dramatically for the past several years.
The media are running the same playbook for the ICE attack.
On Wednesday, an apparently left-wing, “anti-ICE” shooter tried to kill ICE agents, and the media is already churning to psy-op people into believing this person was actually on the right.
Joshua Jahn has been identified as the shooter at a Dallas, Texas ICE Facility that led to the deaths of 2 detainees. The shooter then reportedly killed himself. The shooting, on September 24, 2025, followed a network tv appearance by Gavin Newsome where he compared ICE to fascists and accused them of kidnapping innocent people in the middle of the night. The shooter appears to be an Antifa activist, though that has not been confirmed as of the writing of this report.
The response from the left, so far, has been to double down on their violent anti-ICE rhetoric and to call for gun control, which Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) immediately after the attack.
Dallas ICE Shooting Proves Democrat Rhetoric Is Fueling Deadly Violence – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
On Wednesday morning, a mass shooting at the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility left one person dead and several others wounded before the shooter took his own life. This tragic incident is not an isolated case; it echoes a similar shooting at the ICE Prairieland Detention Center just two months prior, on July 4.
What distinguishes these attacks is a clear ideological motivation: explicit anti-ICE hatred, evidenced chillingly by bullet casings engraved with the words “ANTI ICE,” as FBI investigations confirm.
With the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, ATF, Dallas Police Department, and state authorities all collaborating on the probe, the stakes could not be higher. Early reports suggest the fatality was a detainee at the facility, though federal officials have yet to confirm this detail.
These violent episodes are the grim consequence of a stark and dangerous shift in political rhetoric. Attacks on ICE agents have soared by an unimaginable 1,000%, a surge that directly correlates with months of venomous language from prominent Democrats aimed at ICE and its personnel.

Investigators revealed that “rounds that were found near the suspected shooter contained messages that are anti-ICE in nature.”

Once again, we’re staring at the ugly face of left-wing violence. And the question practically asks itself: why does this keep happening? As these attacks mount, it’s hard to ignore the role of the left-wing media, which has spent years normalizing and moralizing political violence.
On Fox News Wednesday morning, Charlie Kirk’s friend and producer Andrew Kolvet pointed directly to Jimmy Kimmel’s rhetoric as part of the problem. Kolvet demanded an apology from Kimmel, who last week falsely smeared Kirk’s killer as a “MAGA Republican” and then refused to correct the record when he returned to the air Tuesday night after a brief suspension.
“I see everything as being connected,” Kolvet explained. “This shooting at an ICE facility—yeah, we don’t know all the details yet. I made some calls before coming on with you—and I’m being told that, you know, the thought is this person was attacking ICE.” He added, “Our prayers are with anybody who was caught up in this violence.”

Gavin Newsom Went on Wild Anti-ICE, Anti-Trump Rant on Colbert on Tuesday – RedState– redstate.com Source Link Excerpt:
We’re seeing a horrible situation unfold this morning with the reports about a shooting at an ICE processing facility in Dallas.
It’s still unfolding, so we don’t know all the facts yet in this case, but at this point, reports are that at least two detainees were shot, no agents were injured, and the shooter is dead. During a brief press conference on the matter, one of the officials and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said the rhetoric has to stop. The FBI said there were “anti-ICE” messages on the rounds….
Just last night, California Gov. Gavin Newsom was doing exactly that on Stephen Colbert’s late-night “comedy” show. Here’s Newsom talking about his bill to try to unmask ICE. He claims they are disappearing people and acting without due process. This is just a lie.
LAST NIGHT: Gavin Newsom said people need to push back on ICE agents because they’re the result of an authoritarian government
“Masked men, jumping out of unmarked cars, people disappearing, no due process, no oversight, zero accountability,” he ranted.

The radical left strikes again.
Two people are dead, including the shooter, in a shooting at a Dallas ICE facility as an act of targeted violence, the FBI said on Wednesday.
Among the deceased are two detainees, and a third is in critical condition.
The shooter, identified as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Joshua Jahn fired at the ICE building from a nearby rooftop and ended up killing two detainees.
A sniper who killed at least two migrants and wounded several others in a shooting at a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility has been identified as Joshua Jahn, 29, the Daily Mail can reveal.
The bloodbath unfolded at the facility in the Texas city shortly after 7am CT Wednesday morning, when the gunman targeted migrants on an unmarked transport van before killing himself.
Multiple law enforcement sources confirmed the identity of the gunman as Jahn, and ICE said in a statement that the sniper ‘fired indiscriminately’.
The victims were ICE detainees, and no law enforcement were injured in the shooting.
Officials said at a press conference on Wednesday morning that bullets found by the shooter’s body were engraved with ‘anti-ICE messages’, and FBI Director Kash Patel shared an image of the bullets reading: ‘Anti-ICE.’
Photo Reveals Anti-ICE Messages On Shell Casings From Dallas Shooting– trendingpoliticsnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
A new photo released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation related to a deadly shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Dallas, Texas, reveals anti-ICE messages were scrawled on shell casings meant to take out agents.
Early on Wednesday morning, a lone gunman opened fire on an ICE facility, with the messages on the shell casings explaining why their place of work was under fire. The gunman, described in initial reports as a white male, shot himself after officers responding to the incident confronted him.
According to ICE Director Todd Lyons, the shooter used a sniper rifle to attack the facility. During a press conference, FBI Special Agent in Charge R. Joseph Rothrock stated that the detention center, located in Dallas, Texas, was likely targeted due to the suspect’s hatred for ICE and their mission to enforce immigration laws.
“What I can also tell you is that early evidence that we’ve seen from rounds that were found near the suspected shooter contain messages that are anti-ICE in nature,” he told reporters. The incident at the Dallas facility is the second in Texas this year.
On July 4, a group of angry individuals stormed an ICE facility located near Fort Worth. One employee was injured in the neck as a result of the assault. A total of a dozen suspects were then arrested in connection with the attack.
“This is just the most recent example of this type of attack,” Rothrock said.
Chuck Schumer Joins Morning Joe to Call for More Gun Control After Dallas ICE Shooting– townhall.com Source Link Excerpt:
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed a shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Dallas, Texas, on Wednesday resulted in “multiple injuries and fatalities.”
The gunman “is deceased by a self-inflicted gun shot wound,” she added.
While the motive has not been established, Noem said the shooting comes at a time of “unprecedented violence” against ICE law enforcement officers.
“It must stop,” Noem wrote on X. “Please pray for the victims and their families.”
We do not know the shooter’s motive yet, but Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is already going on MSNBC and pointing the finger to blame guns for the crime:
Chuck Schumer says he has no idea what happened with the ICE attack in Dallas, but he does know that guns are to blame:
“I don’t know what’s happened here, and I don’t know about the guns, but we need better laws on guns.”
Schumer said, “Everybody, Right, Left, Center — I don’t care what you’re politics are — has to speak out strongly against it” before adding, “We got something done a few years ago.”
Turning Point Responds After Jimmy Kimmel Tries to Explain Himself in Return: ‘Not Good Enough’– www.westernjournal.com Source Link Excerpt:
Turning Point USA wasn’t buying what Jimmy Kimmel was selling.
The late-night comic returned to ABC’s airwaves on Tuesday after a week’s suspension with a dishonest attempt to explain the comments that got him benched from the show after conservative organizer Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
He didn’t come close.
Turning Point’s Andrew Kolvat, spokesman for the powerhouse group Kirk founded, nailed it in a post on the social media platform X.
Not good enough. Jimmy, it’s simple. Here’s what you need to say:
“I’m sorry for saying the shooter was MAGA. He was not. He was of the left. I apologize to the Kirk family for lying. Please accept my sincere apology. I will do better. I was wrong.” https://t.co/YIR7JeFLIh
“Not good enough,” Kolvat wrote. “Jimmy, it’s simple. Here’s what you need to say:
“I’m sorry for saying the shooter was MAGA. He was not. He was of the left. I apologize to the Kirk family for lying. Please accept my sincere apology. I will do better. I was wrong.”
Direct, to the point, and most of all honest.
Do you buy Jimmy Kimmel’s explanation?
Yes: 1% (1 Votes)
No: 99% (96 Votes)
Kimmel’s mealymouthed explanation was none of those.
Instead, Kimmel said, “[I]t was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man.”
“Nor was it my intention to blame any specific group for the actions,” he said. “It was obviously a deeply disturbed individual. That was really the opposite of the point I was trying to make, but I understand that, to some, that felt either ill-timed or unclear or maybe both, and for those who think I did point a finger, I get why you’re upset. If the situation was reversed, there’s a good chance I’d have felt the same way.”
It wasn’t his intention to blame any specific group for the actions?
Then why did he blame a specific group — specifically supporters of the Make America Great agenda?
As usual, our reporting has now been confirmed 100% correct.
A week later, Megyn Kelly has now picked up the story and released this last night:
The night before Charlie Kirk was murdered, Erika Kirk called a friend to come over to their house to pray for Charlie after feminist website, Jezebel, paid witches on Etsy to curse him, according to Megyn Kelly.
The night before Charlie Kirk was murdered, Erika Kirk called a friend to come over to their house to pray for Charlie after feminist website, Jezebel, paid witches on Etsy to curse him, according to Megyn Kelly.
Jezebel bragged just two days before Charlie was assassinated about how they paid for “multiple curses” to punish him.
One of the curses was reportedly paid for on August 23rd, and the witch promised that the “results” would be noticed in 2 to 3 weeks.
Charlie was killed 2 and a half weeks later.
“Erika and Charlie Kirk heard about these curses, and that news genuinely rattled Erika in particular…” Kelly said.
“So much so that she and Charlie contacted a friend… and asked him to come over and pray with them over Charlie the night before he was murdered.”
Trump Threatens Legal Action Against ABC for Kimmel Action– www.dailysignal.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Donald Trump threatened ABC for letting Jimmy Kimmel resume his show after the late-night comedian falsely claimed a right-winger assassinated Charlie Kirk.
Kimmel returned to the air Tuesday night after ABC suspended him last Wednesday.
The president threatened to sue ABC for Kimmel’s support of Democrats.
“He is yet another arm of the DNC and, to the best of my knowledge, that would be a major Illegal Campaign Contribution,” Trump said. “I think we’re going to test ABC out on this. Let’s see how we do. Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative. A true bunch of losers! Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad Ratings.”
On Tuesday night’s show, Kimmel did not apologize for his comments about Kirk but attempted to clarify what he meant.
“I do want to make something clear because it’s important to me as a human,” Kimmel said. “And that is, it was never my intention to make light of the murder of a young man. I don’t think there’s anything funny about it. I posted a message on Instagram on the day he was killed, sending love to his family and asking for compassion, and I meant it, and I still do.”
Turning Point USA spokesman Andrew Kolvet said Kimmel’s apology was “not good enough.”
“Jimmy, it’s simple,” he said on X. “Here’s what you need to say: ‘I’m sorry for saying the shooter was MAGA. He was not. He was of the left. I apologize to the Kirk family for lying. Please accept my sincere apology. I will do better. I was wrong.’”
