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.
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.’”
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.
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.”
Tyler Robinson’s trans partner disappears from Utah home, is in a ‘safe space very far away’: police | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com Source Link Excerpt:
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.
Hillary Clinton Calls for Unity, But Blames Political Right for Fueling Division– www.louderwithcrowder.com Source Link Excerpt:
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 returns to late night, fails to apologize for Charlie Kirk assassination comments | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com Source Link Excerpt:
“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.”
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.
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.’

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.”
Newsom gives credit to Charlie Kirk for engaging young men– www.washingtonexaminer.com Source Link Excerpt:
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.”
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.

BREAKING: Secret Service Arrests Man Who Endangered Trump by Pointing Laser at Marine One– conservativeroof.com Source Link 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.
Supreme Court Assassination Plot Targeted Three Justices, Bombshell Memo Reveals– trendingpoliticsnews.com Source Link 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.”
Breaking: Affiliates Revolt, Refuse to Bring Kimmel Back Even After ABC, Disney Unsuspend Show– www.westernjournal.com Source Link Excerpt:
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.
Former FBI Agent Warns: After Charlie Kirk’s Assassination, More Violence to Follow—Ordinary Citizens at Risk– conservativeroof.com Source Link Excerpt:
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.
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.

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 Source Link Excerpt:
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.
The Left Calls Kirk Memorial a ‘Festival of Hate,’ and Attendees ‘Fascists’– legalinsurrection.com Source Link Excerpt:
All Democrats had to do was allow Republicans one day to gather to pay their final respects to Charlie Kirk, a party giant who was gunned down eleven days earlier by a left-wing lunatic who disagreed with his political views.
But they simply couldn’t help themselves. Perhaps the global outpouring of love and compassion for Kirk in the days since his death has gotten to them. Yet rather than offering their own tributes or remaining silent, many felt the need to pass judgment on the events of the day.
The Huffington Post called it a “Ragefest” and took aim at President Donald Trump’s “Hate Eulogy.”
As you’ve probably heard, Erika Kirk forgave her husband’s killer during her speech. The left-wing outlet faulted Trump for describing him as a “radicalized, cold-blooded monster.”
Well, the suspect is a radicalized, cold-blooded monster, is he not?

As we’ve come to expect whenever someone right-of-center stands on stage at a college campus and answers questions from students, the entire idea is threatening and makes people feel unsafe. Although I must admit, for the first TPUSA event back, I was expecting a little more energy from the haters.
Maybe they sent the A-team to the local ABC affiliate to protest Jimmy Kimmel’s extended weekend off. Leaving only the B-team to protest Knowles.
The immortal legacy of Charlie Kirk: The Turning Point USA organization founded by the conservative leader announced it has received 54,400 inquiries for new chapters following his death– gatewayhispanic.com Source Link Excerpt:
Kirk, a charismatic activist and close ally of President Donald Trump, has transformed TPUSA into a dominant force since its founding in 2012.
On September 10, 2025, the conservative world was rocked by the assassination of Charlie Kirk, co-founder and CEO of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) , during an event on the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.
Kirk, 31, was shot in the neck by a sniper from a nearby rooftop in what Governor Spencer Cox described as a «political assassination» targeting his ideological expression.
At 18, along with Bill Montgomery, a Tea Party activist, Kirk founded the organization to counter «leftist indoctrination» on college campuses.
His focus on open debate, such as the «Prove Me Wrong» style, attracted thousands of young people, promoting free-market values, limited government, and Christian faith.
Under his leadership, TPUSA grew to more than 900 college chapters and 1,200 high school chapters, with an annual budget exceeding $95 million by 2025.
The Utah event was the first stop on TPUSA’s «American Comeback Tour,» a campus tour aimed at energizing conservative Generation Z. About 3,000 attendees, including families and students, were listening to Kirk answer questions about gun violence when the shot rang out.
TPUSA announced it received 54,400 inquiries for new chapters in the six days following the assassination: 27,800 from college students and 26,600 from high school students. Initially, within 48 hours, the number reached 32,000, surpassing 60,000 shortly afterward. «This was Charlie’s vision for America,» TPUSA said in a statement.
As of this afternoon, in the past 6 days, TPUSA has received 54,000+ requests from high school and college students nationwide to start a chapter or get involved with an existing chapter.
From prominent American politicians, pundits, and celebrities to the hordes of anonymous chairborne social media activists, all of them said these things about Kirk for years before his assassination, and they have said these same things in the days since his death. They said these things about him because he was one of the most outspoken and rhetorically gifted conservatives of the last decade, antagonizing (and embarrassing) thousands of leftists across this nation (and others). But don’t let that fact lead you to believe that’s the only reason Democrats treated him with such scorn. If you agree with any of Charlie Kirk’s politics, then what the left is saying about him, they think about you too.
Charlie Kirk’s Memorial Marks The End Of Lukewarm Christianity– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
For too long, Christians have sold and bought the lie that loving God and loving your neighbor means embracing ill-named political centrism, caving in the culture war, and quietly refusing opportunities to obey the Great Commission. The assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and the widespread revival that followed, however, proves that the third way-ism that has infiltrated even the most seemingly solid Christian institutions has no home here any longer.
It’s not difficult to see that the “Christian nationalist” slur and smearscorporate media, Democrats, and other cowards wielded in an effort to deter Biblically-informed life and law have taken root in key Christian circles, effectively neutering potential Good News bearers from delivering the best message of all time. Yet, a small but powerful sect of bold and morally courageous faithfuls, such as Charlie Kirk, successfully rejected those attacks and devoted their lives to sharing the Gospel with anyone who would listen.
The result of such a commendable act of obedience? A beautiful, one-of-a-kind memorial service in which millions of people across the world finally heard and saw the Good News that has been so readily suppressed from within in recent years.
Reports from within State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona suggested the room was electric with the Holy Spirit. From the stage, Tucker Carlson observed “God’s very obvious presence in this room, the presence of Jesus.”
Kimmel Reinstatement Shows Media Lied About Trump Yet Again– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
Last week, the propaganda press assured us that self-described comedian Jimmy Kimmel was pulled off air because President Donald Trump was an authoritarian, a fascist, or tyrannical. It didn’t matter that Disney executives themselves said Kimmel was yanked because he planned to double down on false and inflammatory commentary. No, what mattered to the propaganda press was spinning the story to malign Trump.
Of course the narrative collapsed Monday when Disney announced it would bring Kimmel back on air days after he falsely stated that Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin was “MAGA.”
“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” Disney said Monday afternoon in a statement. “It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. 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.”
Disney itself admitted once again that pulling Kimmel off air was merely a business decision — exactly what was reported at least four days ago. It wasn’t Trump or the FCC — if it was, Disney would not be reinstating Kimmel. But that’s not what the propaganda press told us. Instead, they deliberately misled Americans so that they could distract from their own culpability in creating a hostile environment that led to Kirk’s assassination by painting Trump as the real problem and Kimmel as the real victim.
