Jonathan Cahn: Multiple Witches Paid To Put Curse On Charlie Kirk Just DAYS Before His Death

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.

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.”

Pure evil.

Trump Threatens Legal Action Against ABC for Kimmel Action– www.dailysignal.com

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.’”

House Election Provides Needed Vote for Epstein Files Bill– www.dailysignal.com

Excerpt:

After a Democrat special election victory in Arizona, Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky is declaring victory in his push to force a vote on the release of additional files on the now-deceased convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Democrat Adelita Grijalva emerged triumphant in the Arizona’s 7th Congressional District special election to fill the vacancy left by her father, Rep. Raul Grijalva, who died in March.

Grijalva’s victory will likely provide the 218th vote necessary to force a vote on Massie’s bill to compel the federal government to release all of its files on Epstein and his sex abuse, which Massie says implicates powerful individuals.

Massie, alongside Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., has spearheaded a discharge petition, a special legislative tool used to circumvent House leadership and force a vote.

The petition currently has the signature of every House Democrat, as well as Republican Reps. Massie, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, and Nancy Mace of South Carolina.

Grijalva told CNN that the Epstein files issue was important on the campaign trail.

Dallas ICE Shooting Proves Democrat Rhetoric Is Fueling Deadly Violence – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

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.

Earlier, we reported on a shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas, TX.

As Leah Barkoukis wrote,

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:

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.”

Washington County Sheriff Nate Brooksby said Twiggs is “in a safe space very far away from St. George” and may need to “lay low for a long time.”

Neighbors say the trans live-in partner of Charlie Kirk’s accused assassin has disappeared from their Utah townhouse, leaving behind unopened mail and unanswered questions.

Lance Twiggs, 22, had been living with Tyler Robinson, 22, in St. George until Robinson allegedly shot and killed Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk during a Sept. 10 campus speaking event. Since the assassination, Twiggs has faced criticism online for not reporting Robinson, even after receiving texts in which Robinson confessed to the shooting.

Residents in the neighborhood told The New York Post that the $1,800-a-month townhouse now looks abandoned. “I haven’t seen anyone come out. There are still all these notes on the door, so it looks like nobody has been in there,” said Jesse Riley, who lives a few doors down. “It definitely is a shock it happened here. It’s a quiet neighborhood.”

Washington County Sheriff Nate Brooksby has said Twiggs is “in a safe space very far away from St. George” and may need to “lay low for a long time.” Twiggs hasn’t been charged. Authorities say he’s a key part of the investigation. Robinson left him a note hidden under his keyboard and later texted him a confession after the shooting.

According to Hillary Clinton, “We have got to stop demonizing each other” and “We have got to stop with the finger-pointing and the scapegoating.” Yet immediately afterward, she asserted that most of the hate in the country today is coming from the right—contradicting her own call to end demonization just moments before.

There are plenty of problems with what Hillary Clinton just said. Not only is it contradictory in the moment, but it also runs counter to much of what she’s been saying over the past eight years.

Firstly, I’ve scoured the entirety of the internet, and I’m struggling to find anyone actually trying to “rewrite slavery from history.” Ironically, it seems more like the left that wants to reshape historical narratives. For instance, they often overlook the fact that it was Southern Democrats who fought—and died—to uphold slavery. They also seem to prefer that people forget they were the ones who opposed the Civil Rights Act and that they were historically associated with the KKK. Nevertheless, I think most readers can see clearly who’s trying to rewrite history—and it certainly isn’t the political party that was founded to end slavery.

As she said, rewriting history “does not make it go away,” and the sooner she follows her own advice, the better off she’ll be.

Secondly, it only took me 30 seconds to find at least 10 clips of Hillary demonizing the side that didn’t vote for her.

Jimmy Kimmel returned to Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday night, for the first time since his controversial remarks about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The late-night host was suspended for nearly a week but took little time to clarify his comments, declining to offer a direct apology.

“You understand that it was never my intention to make light of a murder of a young man. I don’t think there’s anything funny about it,” Kimmel said in his opening monologue, which was cut several times by audience applause.

Kimmel had previously suggested that Tyler Robinson, the alleged killer, was tied to the MAGA movement. On Tuesday, he attempted to soften that claim. “I don’t think the murderer who shot Charlie Kirk represents anyone. This is a sick person who believes violence is a solution, and it isn’t,” he said.

Anti-ICE messages on bullet casings engraved by Dallas ICE shooter Joshua Jahn

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.

No ICE agents were injured.

The Daily Mail reported:

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.’

On Wednesday morning, a sniper opened fire from a rooftop overlooking the Dallas ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) facility, critically injuring three people before turning the gun on himself. Authorities later found the shooter’s body on the roof of a nearby immigration attorney’s office. 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.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) credited Charlie Kirk for his work engaging young men on college and university campuses, saying he did a better job than the Democratic Party in the last election.

“What he was able to achieve in terms of organizing the campuses, engaging these young men, addressing their grievances, giving them some sense of hope, that someone cared, that they mattered, that they were seen, he was able to produce and organize around that in a deeply meaningful way,” he said on Wednesday at the Clinton Global Initiative’s annual meeting in New York City.

“The Democratic Party was nowhere to be found on the issue.”

Despite their political differences, the governor extended a podcast invite to the late Turning Point USA cofounder earlier this year to discuss the issues that young men face today. Kirk was the first guest on This is Gavin Newsom.

Newsom also gave credit to Steve Bannon, one of his early podcast guests, for galvanizing young men in the conservative movement.

“The reason I had them on [the podcast] was this issue,” he said, “because they have weaponized this grievance and electorally, they achieved remarkable results.”

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.

BREAKING: Secret Service Arrests Man Who Endangered Trump by Pointing Laser at Marine One– conservativeroof.com

Excerpt:

The U.S. Secret Service has arrested a man in the nation’s capitol for allegedly pointing a laser at Marine One while President Donald Trump was on board, an incident the agency said could have resulted in a midair collision.

In an affidavit on Sept. 22 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, a Secret Service agent said he encountered the suspect, identified as Jacob Samuel Winkler, in the early hours of Sept. 20 while patrolling the secure area near Constitution Avenue NW. At the time, Marine One was airborne, carrying the president southbound from the White House South Grounds and crossing over The Ellipse.

The agent reported seeing the suspect walking shirtless along the south sidewalk of Constitution Avenue, “talking to himself and being loud.” Because the area was poorly lit, the agent shone a flashlight on him. In apparent retaliation, Winkler allegedly pointed a red laser at the agent’s face, briefly disorienting him. As this occurred, Marine One flew low and directly above where the two stood.

“The rotor noise was loud, and the aircraft appeared large overhead,” the agent wrote. The agent said that as he approached, Winkler looked up, aimed the same red laser pointer toward Marine One, and activated the beam.

Doing so posed “a risk of flash blindness and pilot disorientation,” particularly during low-level flight near the Washington Monument, as well as other helicopters operated by the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Park Police, the agent told the judge.

A Chinese student wearing a New York marathon t-shirt walks at Beijing Foreign Studies University in Beijing on May 29, 2025.

Anger and confusion gripped Chinese professionals in the U.S. after White House leader Donald Trump slapped hefty fees on new work visas, deepening anxiety among those seeking to build careers stateside.

Last Friday, the Trump administration said that it would ask companies to pay $100,000 for new H-1B visa applicants. A slew of tech firms and banks including Microsoft, JPMorgan and Amazon responded to the announcements by advising employees holding the H-1B visas to stay in the country.

The White House has now clarified that the new rule only applies to new H-1B applicants, not to current visa holders or to those seeking to renew their permits.

While the U.S. government may cash in on a windfall from the visa fee hike in the near term, the new policy will almost certainly deter Chinese students from pursuing a degree or career in the U.S., said Xinbo Wu, director of Fudan University’s Center for American Studies in Shanghai.

India was the largest beneficiary of H-1B visas last year, accounting for 71% of approved visa holders, with China as a distant second at 11.7%, according to the U.S. homeland security data.

Supreme Court Assassination Plot Targeted Three Justices, Bombshell Memo Reveals– trendingpoliticsnews.com

Excerpt:

A Justice Department sentencing memo lays out the chilling plan by Nicholas “Sophie” Roske to kill not just Justice Brett Kavanaugh but up to three Supreme Court justices, describing a months-long operation that prosecutors say amounted to terrorism against the judiciary. The government is asking for at least 30 years in prison following Roske’s guilty plea for attempting to assassinate a justice.

Filed Friday in federal court in Maryland, the memorandum details extensive online research, weapons purchases, and reconnaissance leading up to Roske’s arrival outside Kavanaugh’s Maryland home in the early hours of June 8, 2022. According to prosecutors, Roske’s own digital trail shows he wanted to alter the Court’s direction through murder. In Discord messages quoted by the filing, Roske wrote that he was “shooting for 3” and observed that “people have killed judges before.” The memo says a saved Google map pinned what Roske believed were the home addresses of four justices.

Authorities say Roske flew from California to Dulles with a Glock 17, ammunition, a knife, zip ties, a pry bar, tactical gloves, and other gear, then took a taxi to Kavanaugh’s street. Upon spotting deputy U.S. marshals outside the residence, he walked away, spoke with his sister, and dialed 911, later surrendering to police. Prosecutors argue the change of heart came only after he saw the security presence.

The government’s filing describes methodical preparation that began months earlier. Investigators cite searches such as “most effective way to silently kill someone,” “how to break glass quietly,” and “countries least likely to extradite to the US.” They say Roske purchased the handgun and accessories in late May 2022, practiced at a range, researched target addresses, and attempted to wipe devices and delete accounts before traveling. The memo frames the plan as an effort to “single-handedly alter the Constitutional order for ideological ends.”

The advances are welcome successes for Kyiv after months of Russian assaults wore down Ukraine’s morale.

Gen Syrskyi claimed Russian forces had suffered eye-watering losses including 1500 killed in action, another thousand wounded and at least 12 main battle tanks destroyed.

In a statement on Monday Gen Syrskyi said: “Control has been restored in seven settlements and nine more have been cleared of enemy sabotage and reconnaissance groups.

Democratic Party Pushes Emergency Hearing Against Chief Justice – 조선일보
Excerpt:
Source Link

The National Assembly’s Legislation and Judiciary Committee, led by the Democratic Party, decided on the 30th to hold an emergency hearing on allegations of Chief Justice Jo Hee-de’s intervention in the presidential election. The Democratic Party previously raised the same allegations in May when it was the opposition party and held a hearing, but found no evidence that Chief Justice Jo intervened in the election. At that time, Chief Justice Jo and all justices who were summoned as witnesses did not attend. Now, the party is pushing for another hearing based on the conspiracy theory of a “secret meeting involving Jo Hee-de, Han Duck-soo, and two others.” This marks the first time a ruling party has held a hearing targeting the head of the judiciary. The People Power Party (PPP) condemned it as a “violation of the separation of powers and a clear act of destroying the judiciary.”

The committee passed a resolution on the 22nd during a plenary session to implement the hearing plan and summon witnesses and references. The session was originally intended for a legislative hearing on prosecutorial reform, but Choo Mi-ae, the Democratic Party chair of the committee, unexpectedly added the hearing plan for Chief Justice Jo to the agenda. As PPP members protested and walked out, the Democratic Party and the Rebuilding Korea Party proceeded with the decision. In the hearing plan, the Democratic Party claimed, “Chief Justice Jo violated procedural and legal regulations by issuing an unreasonable ruling related to the trial of a specific candidate (President Lee Jae-myung) ahead of the presidential election, and suspicions have arisen that he undermined the independence and political neutrality of the judiciary by allegedly conspiring in advance through a ‘four-person meeting’ with Han Duck-soo and others.”

Democrats risk shutdown blame game with government funding hardball– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Excerpt:

But it’s a risky calculation, given Senate Democrats are using filibuster leverage to block a largely “clean” stopgap spending measure unless enhanced Obamacare subsidies set to expire are extended. It’s an annual scenario where one party invokes leverage over must-pass legislation, but only this time, the usual party roles are reversed.

Democrats are betting that Americans will blame President Donald Trump and Republicans. Although Republicans control both chambers of Congress, they still require bipartisanship to overcome the 60-vote Senate threshold to pass a short-term funding bill. Unless more funding is approved, the federal government will shut down on Oct. 1.

“They who run the Legislative Branch usually get blamed in the eyes of voters when something goes awry or there’s a shutdown of any kind,” said Jon Reinish, a Democratic strategist and former aide to Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), who now chairs Senate Democrats’ campaign arm.

“What matters is if there is a shutdown and all of a sudden your benefit checks stop coming,” Reinish added.

But there’s also a recent precedent suggesting that the party that supports extraneous policy riders is typically seen as responsible for shutdowns and emerges on the losing political end without significant wins. Republicans were bruised from the longest shutdown in U.S. history, which occurred in Trump’s first term and lasted 35 days, after the president failed to get any additional money to construct more of the U.S.-Mexico border wall in 2018 when Republicans controlled Congress.

Leftist “comedian” Jimmy Kimmel received some delicious karmic payback when Sinclair Broadcast Group revealed it will not air “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on its ABC affiliate stations despite Disney’s move to bring the late-night talk show back on air following his recent suspension.

Kimmel’s show was suspended on Wednesday — two days after he falsely claimed that a Trump supporter had assassinated Charlie Kirk and that conservatives were exploiting the murder to score political points.

“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 flippantly on Sept. 15.

After pushing the defamatory propaganda, Kimmel’s show was pulled off the air indefinitely.

On Monday, ABC announced the show would return on Tuesday.

“It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive,” the liberal network said in a statement.

“We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”

However, Sinclair Broadcast Group refused to lift the suspension on its massive national platform.

“Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will be preempting Jimmy Kimmel Live! across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming,” Sinclair wrote Monday on X.

The late Rep. Raúl Grijalva’s (D-AZ) daughter is expected to sail to victory in Arizona’s special election Tuesday, slimming Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) razor-thin majority and likely forcing a House vote on Jeffrey Epstein’s case files.

Adelita Grijalva is poised to beat Republican Daniel Butierez in a race to fill her father’s 7th Congressional District seat, marking the second special election this month. She won the crowded Democratic primary with many endorsements from both Arizona Sens. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ), along with those on the progressive Left, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

Raúl Grijalva died of complications from cancer treatments at the age of 77, just two months after having begun his seventh term in the House. Adelita Grijalva is seeking to finish her father’s term, a situation similar to when the late Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee died and her daughter, former Rep. Erica Lee Carter, finished her term.

The special election could be a turning point in the release of more files related to Epstein, the deceased convicted sex offender.

A former FBI agent and Utah Valley University professor is warning that a new wave of political violence appears to be increasingly targeting everyday citizens, not just political figures, after Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination on campus on Sept. 10.

“The [Minneapolis] church shooting, the Charlie Kirk shooting, these are different,” said Greg Rogers, who spent 30 years in the FBI, many of them as a SWAT sniper.

“These are just citizens that are being murdered for political reasons, which is…certainly not unique and brand new, but it’s happening more frequently,” he continued. “We haven’t seen much of that…If you think about political assassinations in the past, even in modern times, you’ve got John and Bobby Kennedy, you’ve got Ronald Reagan was shot, you’ve got George Wallace when he was a governor was shot. You’ve got all these big political national figures. That to me seems very different than normal citizens that are kind of just doing their thing, getting murdered for their political views.”

Then-President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, on Nov. 22, 1963. His brother, Robert F. Kennedy, was a leading presidential candidate when Sirhan Sirhan gunned him down five years later. At Kirk’s memorial Sunday, his son, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was expected to attend with President Trump and other Cabinet members.

Former Democratic party presidential nominee Kamala Harris gave a lukewarm endorsement of mayor candidate Zohran Mamdani during a Monday night MSNBC interview with Rachel Maddow.

Harris told Maddow she’s optimistic about rising stars in her party, but curbed her enthusiasm when asked about “mainline Democratic shyness and agitation” about Mandami possibly becoming New York City’s next mayor.

“Look, as far as I’m concerned, he’s the Democratic nominee and he should be supported,” Harris said in a transcript rushed to national media Monday night.

Polling shows the 33-year-old State Assemblyman leading incumbent Eric Adams, former governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa with Election Day roughly six weeks away.

When asked if she supports Mamdani’s candidacy, Harris replied “sure” she’s pulling for a Democrat to win, but feels there are candidates in places like Mobile, AL. and New Orleans she wants the public paying attention to as well.

“Let me just say this. He’s not the only star. I know that he’s in New York, and I know New Yorkers think they’re the center of the world, and here we are in New York having this interview,” she said.

Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli Criticizes Democrats for Fanning Public Fear– www.louderwithcrowder.com

It’s unclear what commentators on the left think they achieve by labeling conservatives as Nazis, the president as Hitler, or ICE agents as kidnappers. What is clear is that such rhetoric does nothing to promote public safety. In fact, it has fueled escalating threats against those the left considers politically incorrect. That is why Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli’s remarks were both timely and necessary.

According to Essayli, the left “lays out the gasoline and the matches, getting people riled up in the hope that someone will do what they want—burn the place down.”

The ironic part? The left has, in fact, burned the place down when it doesn’t get its way. Actions speak louder than words, and in this case, both their words and actions speak volumes.

According to ICE, assaults on federal officers have surged by nearly 1,000 percent. This spike can be traced directly to the left’s rhetoric.

How does the left expect people to react when they convince some voters that ICE is racially profiling and “kidnapping” people off the street? As Essayli noted, things have gotten so bad that receiving threats has become just another part of the job. In other words, just another Monday.

And the most irritating part? The left dismisses it all as nothing more than a fight for democracy against fascism. Leftist officials will not even condemn blatant acts of terrorism.

SANTA CLARA, CA — The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), the California Rifle and Pistol Association (CRPA), and several individuals have filed a lawsuit against the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Department, challenging what they describe as unconstitutional concealed carry permit requirements.

Filed as Blank v. Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Department, the case takes aim at both the high costs and the mandatory psychological exam imposed on applicants seeking a concealed carry permit. According to the plaintiffs, the county’s fee structure effectively places the right to carry out of reach for many law-abiding citizens.

“Fees this extreme for the application of a simple permit can only be in place for one reason – to keep the peaceable citizens of Santa Clara from exercising their Second Amendment rights,” said SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut. He described the system as a “pay-to-play scheme” that discriminates against those unable to afford the costs.

The complaint alleges that Santa Clara County has created a “wealth qualification” to replace what was once a political patronage system for issuing permits, ultimately suppressing residents’ ability to exercise their constitutional rights.
