TRUMP: ANTIFA BEHIND ‘EPIDEMIC OF LEFT-WING VIOLENCE’: At a White House-sponsored roundtable that featured conservative journalists who have been in violent confrontations with anti-ICE protesters, President Donald Trump claimed that an “epidemic of violence” and “terror” is being fueled and funded by antifa, a left-wing movement with no formal leadership or structure.

“It should be clear to all Americans that we have a very serious left-wing terror threat in our country, radicals associated with the domestic terror group antifa … and other far left extremists have been carrying out a campaign of violence against ICE agents and other officials charged with enforcing federal law,” Trump said, vowing to use all law enforcement resources to hunt them down and bring them to justice. “These are agitators, anarchists, and they’re paid,” Trump said. “You should see what we have on these people. These are bad people. These are people that want to destroy our country. We’re not going to let it happen.”

“When you see the signs and they’re all made out of a beautiful, beautiful paper, beautiful, nice, stiff, very expensive paper with beautiful wood handles all the same, all the same color, they come from very expensive printing machines, these are not people that write out their signs in a basement that believe in something. These are paid anarchists,” Trump said. “So we’re going to be looking very strongly at the people that are funding these operations.”

“We’re going to be very threatening to them, far more threatening to them than they ever were with us. And that includes

Several high-profile antifa leaders have fled the country or are actively making plans to abscond overseas.

News of their escape comes after President Donald Trump designated antifa as a domestic terrorist threat and directed federal authorities to dismantle terrorism networks operating within the United States.

Mark Bray, a financier of transnational antifa operations and antifa’s foremost thought leader in America, announced he is fleeing to Europe, settling in Spain specifically, under the pretext of safety concerns following negative media attention.

Before his departure, Bray issued an apparent call-to-action, urging widespread militancy. “Only mass antifascism, legal or not, can save us,” Bray declared on Bluesky, a popular platform on the political Left.

Bray, an assistant professor at Rutgers University, will continue teaching classes on “Terrorism” and the “History of Antifascism” remotely, despite a Change.org petition from students calling for his firing.

‘Shame On You’: Ciattarelli, Sherrill Spar After Dem Tries To Link GOP Nominee To NJ Opioid Deaths– dailycaller.com

Democratic New Jersey Rep. Mikie Sherrill and Republican nominee Jack Ciattarelli sparred in a heated exchange Wednesday during their second and final gubernatorial debate after Sherrill attempted to link Ciattarelli to New Jersey’s opioid deaths.

Sherrill and Ciattarelli took the debate stage for the final time before the state’s gubernatorial election, which is less than 30 days away. While discussing opioids and their respective backgrounds, Sherrill claimed during her 30-second argument that one of Ciattarelli’s medical publishing companies allegedly helped addicts gain easier access to opioids.

“My opponent likes to talk a lot about being a businessman, but I think what New Jersey doesn’t know is much about his business, how he made his millions, by working with some of the worst offenders and saying that opioids were safe, putting out propaganda, publishing their propaganda while tens of thousands of New Jerseyans died,” Sherrill said.

“As if that wasn’t enough, then he was paid to develop an app so that people who were addicted could more easily get access to opioids,” Sherrill added. “So as he made millions, as these opioid companies made billions, tens of thousands of New Jerseyans died.”

Key Takeaways

  • Proponents argue that the audit reflects a broader accountability effort to align curricula with state priorities, while critics, including academic freedom advocates, warn it undermines faculty autonomy and academic integrity.
  • The audit comes shortly after the Texas Tech System Chancellor announced a mandate that in-class instruction must note there are only two sexes.

A recently announced audit of the University of Texas System’s gender studies course has academic freedom advocates sounding the alarm and conservatives defending a broader agenda for accountability and reform under a recently passed anti-DEI law.

“It has been a priority for lawmakers in Texas to return our universities to their role as institutions of free speech, merit-based achievement and open inquiry and end the culture of ideological indoctrination that has proliferated on many campuses, dividing students by race and gender and stifling debate and free expression,” Texas Public Policy Foundation spokesperson Sherry Sylvester told The College Fix in an interview.

Senate Bill 37, signed into law last year, gave the Board of Regents oversight powers to review and approve the curricula and degree programs within the system, which enrolls some 260,000 students at academic and health institutions across the state.

Following a White House roundtable discussion on Antifa-linked and other far-left violence on Wednesday, President Donald Trump indicated that he is preparing to designate the black bloc militant group as a foreign terrorist organization.

The move comes on the heels of the president’s decision to label the black bloc organization as a foreign terrorist group last month. Designating the group as a foreign terrorist organization would give prosecutors expanded powers to prosecute members, as well as individuals found to be involved with financing and supporting the group.

On Wednesday, a number of leading reporters on Antifa violence, in addition to other experts, participated in a roundtable discussion headed up by President Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi. In attendance was Nick Sortor, a conservative journalist who was recently subjected to a controversial arrest by the Portland Police Bureau, and Andy Ngo, who is widely considered to be the leading voice on covering Antifa extremism in Portland and beyond.

Ngo suffered a brain bleed when he was brutally beaten by Antifa militants in Portland in 2019.

Canadian political pundits and right-of-center media were quick to blast what they called “onerous” house arrest conditions placed on Freedom Convoy leaders Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, who were sentenced yesterday by an Ontario judge after earlier being found guilty of mischief.

Rebel News head Ezra Levant, who has been covering the trial extensively, gave his assessment of the verdict, saying there was “good” and “bad” news.

“Good news: no additional jail time for Tamara Lich or Chris Barber,” he wrote on X.

“Bad news: onerous house arrest provisions. The real punishment was the longest mischief trial in Canadian history. Total political vendetta by Doug Ford’s prosecutors.”

On October 7, Ontario Court Justice Heather Perkins-McVey sentenced Lich and Chris Barber to 18 months’ house arrest after being convicted earlier in the year convicted of “mischief.”

As reported by LifeSiteNews, the Canadian government was hoping to put Lich in jail for no less than seven years and Barber for eight years for their roles in the 2022 protests against COVID mandates.

In response to a Federalist inquiry, not a single Democrat U.S. Senator called for the Virginia Democrat attorney general candidate Jay Jones to drop out of the race in light of his text messages fantasizing about assassinating Republican Todd Gilbert.

“Put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time,” Jones wrote, after running a hypothetical about how to allocate two bullets among Gilbert, Hitler, and Pol Pot. The 2022 text messages were first reported by National Review on Friday. According to a source cited by the outlet, Jones also “suggested he wished Gilbert’s wife could watch her own child die in her arms so that Gilbert might reconsider his political views” in a follow-up phone call with a Republican state lawmaker.

The Federalist reached out to each Senate Democrat, asking if they would call for Jones to drop out of the race in light of his violent comments.

Only Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., addressed The Federalist’s inquiry. Though Kaine criticized Jones’ remarks, he also refused to call for him to drop out. “There is nothing that can justify these indefensible words, and they are contrary to all I’ve known about Jay Jones for decades,” Kaine said. “With hundreds of thousands of Virginians already having voted, it’s up to Virginians to decide.”

Democrats Aren’t ‘Insane’ Or ‘Unhinged.’ They’re Anti-American– thefederalist.com

One thing right-wingers have got to stop doing is brushing off the deliberate intentions of Democrats as “insane,” “crazy,” or “unhinged.” They’re not, and to do so is to give them an excuse for their sick behavior, the way a proven murderer hopes to get off with a “temporary insanity” defense.

The temptation is admittedly strong. Democrats do a lot of crazy things, like support and champion every single policy that makes life for the average American poorer, more dangerous, and less meaningful. They’re in favor of open borders and rampant crime. They’re opposed to free speech and fair elections. Anyone would be forgiven for calling them insane.

They’re not. These are their very conscious and very sober positions. There is nothing they say or profess to believe that is misguided or poorly thought out. They mean what they say, and there isn’t a flicker of doubt. That it seems “crazy” or “insane” speaks to a lack of understanding of what exactly the modern Democrat Party is.

It’s not a different side of the same coin or a political party with well-meaning differences of opinion. It’s a revolutionary movement that rejects the American way, which is to say the fundamental view that all men and women are created equal and that the rule of law applies to everyone.

The scandal whereby Jay Jones, the Democrat nominee in the Virginia attorney general race, sent graphic text messages describing his desire to assassinate a political opponent says much about our current political culture.

Supreme Court Appears Skeptical of Colorado’s Law Targeting ‘Conversion Therapy’– townhall.com

pgnewser October 9, 2025 0

Blurb:

The Supreme Court on Tuesday heard a case challenging a Colorado law prohibiting “conversion therapy.”

The legislation prohibits mental health professionals from offering therapy aimed at altering sexual orientation or gender identity to minors.

The original lawsuit was filed by Kaley Chiles, a therapist and Christian who argues that the law violates her free speech rights because it stops her from working with patients who want to live “consistent with their faith.”

From The New York Times:

State lawmakers passed the restrictions in 2019, in response to the findings of major medical associations that conversion therapy is ineffective and potentially harmful for young people. The outcome of the case has implications for Colorado and more than 20 other states with similar laws.

A central question for the justices is whether Colorado’s law is a permissible regulation of professional conduct or an unconstitutional infringement on free speech.

Colorado’s statute prohibits “any practice or treatment” that tries to change a minor’s “gender expressions or to eliminate or reduce sexual or romantic attraction or feelings toward individuals of the same sex.”

Colorado officials have never enforced the measure, which includes fines up to $5,000 for each violation and possible suspension or revocation of a counselor’s license. The law includes a religious exemption for those “engaged in the practice of religious ministry.”

Comey was indicted Sept. 25 for making a false statement and obstruction of a congressional proceeding. If convicted, he could face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

But in his arraignment Wednesday, Comey pleaded not guilty to both charges and requested a jury trial, which has been scheduled for Jan. 5, 2026. The government says it expects the trial to take 2-3 days.

Comey is represented by former federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, who is known for being the first to bring charges against Osama bin Laden in 1996.

The angry exchange came last month with journalist Julie Watts of CBS News California Investigates. It quickly went south when the reporter asked the former representative about her prospects of luring Republicans.
