The infographics make it look like there’s an epidemic of right-wing political violence being waged against a peaceful, tolerant, and defenceless left. This is of course nonsense. Every time someone dug into their data, it turned out that they were basically doing this:




It isn’t even necessary to subject the datasets to close scrutiny. Look at the Economist graphic. See that little black rectangle in 2020? The Economist would have you believe that there was practically no left-wing political violence at all in 2020, which as everyone remembers was a fiery but mostly peaceful year. The Economist dataset turns out to have been curated by an Antifa activist, by the way, which I suppose makes the Economist an affiliate of an international terrorist organization, now.

Now, you can say ‘they’re just lying’, and yes, quite a few of them know exactly what they’re doing.




In a lot of cases, however, calling them ‘liars’ isn’t quite accurate. Lying implies conscious deception. If you’ve talked to these people, which I know you have to the point where you have post-traumatic stress disorder, you know that they seem to really believe the things they say. It does not matter in the slightest if they contradict the thing they said yesterday. They apparently have no memory of their previous statements. Their present belief is always entirely sincere. It does not matter if observable reality is in stark contradiction to their belief. They have lost the ability to distinguish between fact and fiction, with the result that they routinely mistake their own pop culture propaganda for reality.

That they do not even seem to notice when they contradict themselves suggests a void of self-awareness. This is the origin of the NPC meme, which depicts leftists as Non-Player Characters, effectively no more than computer programs that emulate human behaviour. When the meme first began to spread a few years ago, there was a purge of Twitter accounts that posted it. The NPC meme cut leftists to the quick because they instinctively recognized – as everyone did – the truth in it. Leftists complained that the NPC meme was dehumanizing, which is actually perfectly correct. An NPC is not really human.

In the Oval Office yesterday, President Trump dramatically signed (in person, not the Autopen) another Presidential Memorandum titled, “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence.” It might be worth reading the order in full, but here is the gist. The Administration has announced a “new law enforcement strategy” targeting the organizers of political violence:

This political violence is not a series of isolated incidents and does not emerge organically.
Instead, it is a culmination of sophisticated, organized campaigns of targeted intimidation,
radicalization, threats, and violence designed to silence opposing speech, limit political activity,
change or direct policy outcomes, and prevent the functioning of a democratic society. A new law
enforcement strategy that investigates all participants in these criminal and terroristic
conspiracies - including the organized structures, networks, entities, organizations, funding
sources, and predicate actions behind them - is required.

“These campaigns,” the Memo explained, “often begin by isolating and dehumanizing specific targets to justify murder or other violent action against them.” That’s us. The Memo was referring to doxxing people, or calling them “Nazis” and “fascists” for their otherwise unremarkable political opinions, like saying men shouldn’t be playing women’s sports.

The Memo then exposed the lie of so-called “anti-fascism.” It’s about time somebody said it:

There are common recurrent motivations and indicia uniting this pattern of violent and terroristic
activities under the umbrella of self-described "anti-fascism." These movements portray
foundational American principles (e.g., support for law enforcement and border control) as
"fascist" to justify and encourage acts of violent revolution. This "anti-fascist" lie has become the
organizing rallying cry used by domestic terrorists to wage a violent assault against democratic
institutions, constitutional rights, and fundamental American liberties. Common threads
animating this violent conduct include anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity;
support for the overthrow of the United States Government; extremism on migration, race, and
gender; and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and
morality.

The Memo then described a whole-of-government focus on identifying and disrupting the networks radicalizing innocent young people into deranged leftists. Maybe most significantly, it ordered the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) to begin investigating the people funding and organizing the various “anti-fascist” groups:

(c) The JTTFs shall also investigate:
(i) institutional and individual funders, and officers and employees of organizations, that are
responsible for, sponsor, or otherwise aid and abet the principal actors engaging in the criminal
conduct described in subsections (a) and (b) of this section;

During the signing event, President Trump specifically mentioned two people by name as persons of interest: George Soros, who needs no introduction, and Democrat super-donor Reid Hoffman. I’m betting they are both meeting with their lawyers today, and not for social reasons.

It isn’t easy to nab a billionaire, but it’s not impossible, either. Just ask Sam Bankman-Fried.

Soros in particular has long been suspected of funding leftwing violence, even since before 2021’s Summer of Mostly Peaceful Protest. Now he’s been publicly fingered in a dramatic, high-profile manner, and that exposure alone will suppress some of his shenanigans.

It is simply stunning how fast the Trump Administration moves. The New York Times reported yesterday that “a senior Justice Department official has instructed more than a half dozen U.S. attorney’s offices to draft plans to investigate a group funded by George Soros”— the Open Society Foundation.

President Trump called Soros a “likely candidate” for investigation. “Could be a lot of people.” The President continued, “If they are funding these things, they’re going to have some problems, because they’re agitators and they’re anarchists.”

The Foundation immediately excreted an expected response, hotly denying the group funds terrorism, and expressing feigned alarm and dismay over “suppression” of its free speech rights.

In other words, the Soros conflict is finally emerging from its shadowy, decades-old cold war and is now bursting out in the open. The battle is no longer merely rhetorical —a battle of words— but has shifted to real world action, ripe with potential consequence.

Since the focus is squarely on violent rhetoric itself, Democrats and corporate media may find themselves hamstrung, unable to lean on the tried-and-true tool of cheap outrage. They must now calculate the risks in throwaway name-calling, like labeling Trump and his supporters “nazis” and “fascists.”

Video Shows ICE Agents Acting to Get Detainees Out of Harm’s Way During Dallas Ambush

As long as Democrats keep these Jihadi quad group faces appearing on TV, republicans are going to win just like that!

Two weeks ago, Newsweek ran a tragically predictable story headlined, “Kavanaugh’s attempted assassin identifies as transgender.” The assassin, Nicolas “Sophie” Roske, is due to be sentenced in court today (Oct. 3rd.)




On June 8th, 2022, the night in Chevy Chase was heavy with the muffled stillness of suburbia. The lawns were still glistening, slick from sprinklers, when Nicholas Roske slipped from a cab and began walking toward Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house. In his backpack nestled the instruments of premeditated murder —a Glok 17, a knife, zipties, burglary tools— comprising an assassin’s arsenal small enough to carry but broad enough to alter the fate of a Nation.

Roske had flown across the country believing himself an agent of history, ready to strike down a sitting justice in his own home. His murderous list included three conservative Supreme Court Justices in all.

But when Roske reached the quiet street, he was startled by two deputy U.S. marshals, silhouettes against the porchlight glow, posted as sentinels on the threshold. Their unexpected presence rattled him. The assassin’s confidence cracked, and his conviction curdled into cold feet. His hand went not to the gun but to his phone; dialing 911, he confessed his purpose to a stranger on the line.

Within minutes, patrol cars circled into the cul-de-sac, and Roske surrendered himself into custody— his mission collapsing not with gunfire but with the simple, immovable fact of two deputies who stood at their posts.

But the roots of that June night went back years earlier, into an even more personal struggle. Recent court filings reveal that in 2020, Roske confronted a different crisis—the young man’s evolving realization of ‘herself’ as ‘Sophie.’ Roske sought medical ‘care’ as Sophie, and he confided his secret identity to a tight circle of his teachers, a trusted sister, and certain close friends.

He hid his “gender identity” from his parents, who, Roske feared, would never understand.

Roske’s ambition metastasized into delusion: he would, with a gun, single-handedly bend the arc of the Republic. The government’s September filing stripped away any patina of private anguish, reducing the story to its terrible core: a hormone-addled citizen who sought to “alter the Constitutional order for ideological ends.”

In other words, in Roske’s fevered, chemically-altered, propagandized imagination, he was a woman who might get pregnant and be denied an abortion. In that sense, he acted as if the Dobbs decision was aimed at him, or “her,” personally— even though, physiologically, it could not possibly be. Roske internalized Dobbs as though it were an existential threat to his own identity.

We will find out today at his sentencing whether the Court considers Roske’s transgender identity as any mitigating factor in trying to kill an abortion decision by killing a judge. The prosecution wants 30 years. The defense attorneys asked the court for only 8 years followed by 25 years of supervision, given that: he didn’t go through with it, he surrendered peacefully, and he shouldn’t be jailed with men. I bet they wanted to, but his lawyers stopped short of arguing Roske was mentally ill, which would have been an even more interesting development.

Sooner or later, the nation needs to have a serious conversation about transgender violence— and about the ruthless doctors who are poisoning these children with cross-sex hormones.

ICE Chief: Portland Facility Under ‘Nightly Attack’ from Leftist Mobs with ‘Help’ from City Officials

However, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility has received no help from local police because of political directives from the deep-blue city’s Democrat leadership.

Cammila Wamsley, director of Portland’s ICE office, described escalating violence targeting her staff and the building, saying officers are left vulnerable while local police refuse to respond.

“It’s frustrating for us to watch people be attacked on the street and know that we don’t have the authority to be able to really step in unless there’s some nexus to federal law.”

Wamsley said demonstrations outside the facility have long since morphed into violent riots.

Bottle rockets have been fired into the building, rocks have shattered windows, lasers have been aimed at officers’ eyes, and protesters have erected barricades to block vehicles.

Federal employees have also been targeted personally.

Leftists have reportedly doxxed at least six ICE staffers and followed them home.

“Later, towards the evening and around dark, there are a lot of folks that come up dressed in all black,” Wamsley explained.

“They are here to wreak havoc.

“They’ll block our cars, throw paint, damage property, and even try to follow our folks home.”

“The folks here can go from a crowd of 50 to a crowd of 1,000 in 30 minutes.

“Sometimes we only have 20 officers here.

“We would not be able to defend the building with that show of force.”

Despite the danger, Wamsley said Portland police often fail to respond, or deliberately delay responses, to incidents outside the ICE building.

“That is not the stance they would take six blocks from here, but it is the stance they take with us because of guidance from the mayor and city council,” she said. ...

President Donald Trump has announced plans to send 200 National Guard troops to Portland to protect immigration authorities and restore order.

Officials said the troops will be stationed near protest zones.

The escalation follows a deadly attack on an ICE facility in Dallas on September 24, when a gunman opened fire, killing two detainees before turning the weapon on himself.

Investigators said shell casings at the scene bore an “ANTI-ICE” message.

This morning, during routine patrolling in Broadview, in the same area of Chicago that law enforcement were assaulted yesterday, our brave law enforcement officers were rammed by vehicles and boxed in by 10 cars.

Agents were unable to move their vehicles and exited the car. One of the drivers who rammed the law enforcement vehicle was armed with a semi-automatic weapon. Law enforcement was forced to deploy their weapons and fire defensive shots at an armed US citizen who drove herself to the hospital to get care for wounds.

The armed woman was named in a
@CBP
intelligence bulletin last week for doxing agents and posting online ‘Hey to all my gang let’s fuck those mother fuckers up, don’t let them take anyone.’

Thankfully, no law enforcement officers were seriously injured in this attack.

Pritzker’s Chicago Police Department is leaving the shooting scene and refuses to assist us in securing the area. There is a growing crowd and we are deploying special operations to control the scene.

This is an evolving situation and we will give more information as soon as it becomes available.

Data Doesn’t Lie: Political Violence Is An Overwhelmingly Left-Wing Problem
By: Bruce Gilley
October 02, 2025

The rot in the so-called data pushed by leftist scholars studying political violence gets worse the deeper you dig.

Even before Charlie Kirk had been pronounced dead, the narrative apparatus of the Left was in full gear trying to blame the assassination on the Right. Once it became clear that the shooter was a standard-issue leftist, the narrative shifted to “this is a both-sides problem.” But before Kirk had been laid the rest, the experts and researchers had been mobilized to assert that the original claims, if not accurate, were consistent with a pattern in which political violence in America is largely a right-wing problem. Having spent my career in academia sopping up such unctuous claims, let me assure you that this is complete nonsense. Political violence in America is mostly a problem of the Left.

Begin with some bright, shining facts. There were two assassination attempts against President Trump in the recent election and none against his opponents. The California gunman arrested outside Brett Kavanaugh’s home in 2022 planned to assassinate three conservative Supreme Court justices, not any liberal ones. Attempts on the lives of members of Congress this century have resulted in one Republican (Steve Scalise) and one Democrat (Gabby Giffords) suffering serious injuries. ...

The man arrested Sunday outside of a Catholic church where U.S. Supreme Court justices were scheduled to attend Mass had more than 200 explosive devices in his possession at the time of his arrest.

Louis Geri, 41, of Vineland, New Jersey, was arrested after he threatened to ignite explosives outside of St. Matthew’s Cathedral, where hours after his arrest, the justices were scheduled to attend an annual Red Mass held as the court returns for a new term, according to The Washington Post.

Due to the incident, the justices did not attend, according to the Catholic Standard.

Court records show that Geri was told by police that he had to move a tent erected on the steps of the cathedral, but he resisted, telling the officers, “You might want to stay back and call the federales, I have explosives,” the Washington Post reported. ...

The document showed Geri’s dislike for the Catholic church, Jews, members of SCOTUS, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) stumbled badly when pressed on CNN about a Democrat candidate’s shocking text message suggesting a Republican leader should be shot in the head.

Virginia attorney general nominee Jay Jones, a Democrat, has been engulfed in scandal after texts surfaced revealing his violent fantasies.

In the texts, Jones said the GOP Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates should get “two bullets to the head” for honoring a late moderate Democrat.

The disturbing comment has rocked the race and left top Democrats struggling to respond.

Pelosi, speaking with CNN’s Dana Bash, sidestepped the question of whether Jones should drop out of the race.

She appeared to defend Jones by arguing that he had apologized.

However, she then claimed that such threats are “just not appropriate” when directed at herself and other Democrats after defending Jones’s use of threatening language.

“Well, that’s up to the people, the leaders in Virginia,” Pelosi said.

“They have said he has apologized.”

Why Marxist and pro-Palestine Cody Balmer burned down Jewish Governor Josh Shapiro's house

Cody Balmer, a 38-year-old Pennsylvania resident and self-described Marxist, is facing charges of arson, attempted murder, and terrorism after allegedly attacking the official residence of Governor Josh Shapiro on the evening of April 13, 2025. ...

A subsequent search of Balmer’s residence uncovered paraphernalia linking him to far-left revolutionary movements. Among the items found were posters of Che Guevara, a bust of Karl Marx, and literature advocating armed struggle against capitalist and “Zionist” institutions.

In interviews with law enforcement, Balmer reportedly described his actions as “an act of resistance” against “imperialist genocide” and condemned Shapiro for “legitimising apartheid policies” through his support of anti-BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions) laws in Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania man pleads guilty in arson attack at governor's mansion

A federal raid in New York City’s Chinatown targeting criminal networks selling counterfeit goods erupted into chaos as protesters turned violent and clashed with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

The rioting led city leaders to rush to distance themselves from the operation.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said the raid was part of a “targeted, intelligence-driven enforcement operation” focused on organized crime tied to counterfeit merchandise sales along Canal Street.

In a statement, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said:

“During this law enforcement operation, rioters who were shouting obscenities became violent and obstructed law enforcement duties, including blocking vehicles and assaulting law enforcement. ...

Witnesses said the raid quickly descended into disorder as rioters formed human chains, blocked vehicles, and attempted to stop ICE agents from detaining suspects.

Law Enforcement Opens Fire on U-Haul Truck After Driver Backs into Line of Police Officers Outside US Coast Guard Base in Alameda, CA

Law enforcement opened fire on a U-Haul truck after the driver decided it was a good idea to back his truck into the police line outside of the US Coast Guard base in Alameda, California.

The incident took place after hours of protesting outside the Coast Guard Base where ICE workers are staying.

Eyewitnesses said the driver had been hanging out in the area all day before suddenly backing up his U-Haul and accelerating toward police, prompting gunfire. Protesters reportedly screamed for him to stop moments before shots rang out.

The abandoned U-Haul was later found full of bullet holes but no blood.

Democrat leaders have been promoting the violence against ICE officials who are doing their job, arresting and deporting illegal aliens from the country.

German activist Naomi Seibt, known across Europe as the “Anti-Greta” for her outspoken criticism of globalism and defense of free speech, has filed for political asylum in the United States.

Seibt is claiming persecution in her home country for her political beliefs after she received death threats from the far-left terrorist group Antifa.

The 25-year-old free speech advocate submitted her petition under Section 208 of the Immigration and Nationality Act.

She is asserting that returning to Germany would expose her to imprisonment or physical harm due to her political activism.

“I have now applied for asylum, which means that I’m waiting for an interview,” Seibt said in a statement.

“And, in the meantime, I’m here legally.

“My goal in the meantime is to become an American citizen in the future because this country has given me so much hope.”

Seibt said her decision came after years of harassment and state surveillance in Germany for expressing views at odds with the political mainstream.

“In 2024, I found out that I had been spied on by German intelligence for years,” she said.

“Simultaneously, I keep receiving death threats from Antifa.

“I went to the German police, and they told me that they can’t do anything about it as long as I have not actually been raped or killed.

“I am not getting protection from the German government even though I am at major risk of potentially being killed.”

Antifa has claimed responsibility on the well-known left-wing extremist platform Indymedia for the arson attack on the car of AfD Bundestag member Bernd Baumann in Hamburg.

During the night leading into Monday, the politician’s car was set on fire in front of his residence. According to initial findings, the vehicle was deliberately ignited. The flames then spread to three other cars parked nearby.

“Fiery greetings to the accused, imprisoned, and underground Antifas!” the statement reads, whose authenticity has not yet been confirmed by police. The group said that on the night of November 3, 2025, they destroyed Baumann’s BMW with an incendiary device. The left-wing radicals cite as the reason for the action the upcoming trials “against Antifas in Dresden and Düsseldorf.” “Thirteen comrades are accused of several attacks on Nazis and their structures in Germany and Hungary,” the statement says.

German activist Naomi Seibt, known across Europe as the “Anti-Greta” for her outspoken criticism of globalism and defense of free speech, has filed for political asylum in the United States.

The kids in question are about Kindergarten age.

The U.S. Department of Justice has launched a manhunt seeking the suspect behind an attack on Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey Alina Habba’s office.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday that an individual attempted to confront Habba on Wednesday night.

The suspect then proceeded to “destroy property in her office” and “fled the scene.”

“Thankfully, Alina is ok,” Bondi said. ...

“This is unfortunately becoming a trend as radicals continue to attack law enforcement agents around the country.”

Border Patrol agents were shot at by an gunman driving a black Jeep in Chicago, Illinois, on Saturday.

The shooter and vehicle are at large.

Other anti-ICE agitators threw bricks and a paint can at federal agents.

“Today, U.S. Border Patrol was conducting immigration enforcement operations near 26th Street and Kedzie Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, when an unknown male driving a black Jeep fired shots at agents and fled the scene,” the DHS said.

“An unknown number of agitators also threw a paint can and bricks at Border Patrol’s vehicles. Chicago Police Department was called for assistance and cleared the scene,” the DHS said.

“This incident is not isolated and reflects a growing and dangerous trend of violence and obstruction. Over the past two months, we’ve seen an increase in assaults and obstruction targeting federal law enforcement during operations. These confrontations highlight the dangers our agents face daily and the escalating aggression toward law enforcement. The violence must end,” the DHS said.

A New York City psychotherapist says he has received dozens of hostile messages, including explicit death threats, after publicly describing the growing number of patients in his practice who exhibit what he calls symptoms of “Trump derangement syndrome” (TDS).

Jonathan Alpert, a Manhattan-based licensed therapist and author of the forthcoming book “Therapy Nation,” revealed that the backlash began immediately after he appeared on Fox News last week to discuss a Wall Street Journal op-ed he wrote on Nov. 12.

In the piece, he described “patients across the political spectrum” who raise President Donald Trump in therapy sessions “not to discuss policy but to process obsession, rage, and dread.”

Alpert shared several messages he says he received through text and email over the past week.

Many were profane; some included threats.

One message told him to “eat s— and die.”

Another called him a “pedophile protector.”

A third read: “You’re a lowlife… pedophile who decent people hope is slaughtered.”

“It’s been intense,” Alpert said.

“I expected disagreement, but I didn’t expect the level of hostility, especially from people in the mental health field.”

He said the reactions highlight a contradiction he’s observed:

"Many of the people who speak the most about empathy, tolerance, and inclusion reacted with the least of it."
