After it came to light that Jay Jones, the Democratic nominee for Virginia’s attorney general, had fantasized about killing a political opponent and his children, some were surprised that other Democrats didn’t condemn him. No one should have been surprised. Because what Jones said is a widely shared belief among Democrats these days. According to National Review, which broke the explosive Jones story, he told a colleague that “the only way public policy changes is when policymakers feel pain themselves, like the pain that parents feel when they watch their children die from gun violence.” He was referring to a

Democrats = Bolsheviks Their natural tendency (Civil War, slavery, KKK. Jim Crow, Segregation, Lynchings, Solid South, George Wallace, Lester Maddox, Bill Ayers, Bernadette Dohrn, SDS, Weathermen, BLM, Antifa) is VIOLENCE. It is in their DNA.

The problem is that our schools have failed to teach our children that while violence does indeed create social change, the change it creates is never good. A study of history shows that every time violence has good results, the violence follows social change. Or the violence was for some completely unrelated motivation and the good social change was merely an unintended consequence. For example, WWII ended the Holocaust, but ending the Holocaust played no role in why the victors fought. Another example, the U.S. Civil War ended slavery in the United States, but ending slavery was not one of the reasons which the U.S. government fought the war to achieve...the social change which led to the abolition of slavery pre-dated the Civil War and in many ways led to the Civil War. The abolitionists did not start the Civil War to end slavery. They did not start the Civil War at all. The slave owners started the Civil War to prevent the abolitionists from ending slavery. That did not work out well for them. Those on the left who espouse violence should bear that in mind, because that is often the outcome for those who start the violence.

There is a connected sequence of views, opinions, indoctrinations that have made Democrats/Leftists arrive at justification of violence in public life. First is the poisonous indoctrination of relative morality. Add to that the false sense of superiority. What is pushing them over the top is the realization that their ideas, policies, plans will never bring a majority in a free society on their side. Using violence to overthrow the 'established' order is the only way. They biggest reason they hate Trump is that he is effectively blocking their plans and will not be intimidated into backing down. They have no need to attempt violence against a Jeb Bush or a Mitt Romney. If this view was held just by a small, lunatic fringe that is another thing. But the degree that it is affecting large swaths of society, especially young people is very alarming.

Nothing surprising here. Anyone surprised has been keeping their head in the sand. I know too many right-leaning people who don't take the time to research what the Left are doing in print and on social media. They have no idea how entrenched the young are in their indoctrination. They have always preached that the end justifies the means. And they are achieving their goals faster than the right ever expected.

October is a month for political surprises, it’s been said. But one turn of events this month was not the least bit shocking. We’ve been following the flameout of the electric vehicle for years. It was quite predictable. Up until Oct. 1, Americans could reel in generous federal subsidies in exchange for buying an electric vehicle. A new EV or plug-in hybrid pulled down a $7,500 tax credit. A used EV or plug-in got $4,000. Now those subsidies are gone, thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill signed by President Donald Trump on July 4, and EV sales are expected

Democrats will never tire of calling the One Big Beautiful Bill Act a “giveaway” to the rich. But by their own definition, this bill was a huge giveaway to blue states and blue cities. That’s the finding from a Heritage Foundation report released last week. The study, which used Heritage’s own individual income tax model, looked not only at how much the bill saved taxpayers by preventing President Trump’s 2017 tax cuts from expiring (an average of $1,904 per taxpayer), but the impact of new tax cuts, including the expansion of the state and local tax deduction.

Despite nonstop media controversies swirling about his administration and continued criticism from his political foes, President Donald Trump’s favorability remained rock solid in early October, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. September’s news-filled month — which included the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, renewed efforts to end the Israel-Hamas conflict, and U.S. attacks on South American cartels’ drug boats — failed to diminish Trump’s overall poll readings. Every month, I&I/TIPP asks Americans the following question: “Overall, is your opinion of Donald Trump generally favorable, generally unfavorable,

Never trust a politician who promises to help the poor by taking from the rich. It never works. Joe Biden proved this point. While still in the White House, Biden promised that if reelected, he would levy a billionaire tax on the wealthiest Americans. It wasn’t the first time. During his 2023 State of the Union address, he railed that “the tax system is not fair, it’s not fair.” A year earlier, he proposed a “billionaire minimum income tax.” Even before he was president, Biden was fond of demanding that the rich pay their “fair share,” which makes a snappy

We have long marveled at the virulence of Trump Derangement Syndrome. So why doesn’t the president use it to his own – and the nation’s – benefit? In matters big and small, if President Donald Trump says one thing, masses of leftists and never-Trumpers will insist the opposite is true. After Trump suggested that pregnant women not take Tylenol because it could pose an autism risk to their unborn children, expectant moms swarmed social media with videos of themselves downing the painkiller.

Once again, we are being treated to a fusillade of stories about the horrors of a government shutdown. But we invite readers to consider this: Roughly two-thirds of government spending will continue despite the “shutdown.” In other words, there is absolutely no reason for Republicans to cave on Democratic demands that Medicaid benefits for illegals and Obamacare subsidies for higher-income families be restored. The longer the federal government remains shut down, the more people will realize how meaningless it is, and the less leverage Democrats will have.

For years, we were told by government officials and outside “experts” that the terrorists in our midst were mostly right-wing fanatics – a list that under the Biden administration came to include parents who spoke up at local school board meetings and Catholics who like the Latin mass. But even the left is now admitting what everyone else already knows. Namely, that despite their constant bleating about tolerance and peace, it’s leftists who pose the greatest threat to Americans. This week, the Trump-hating Atlantic magazine published an article titled “Left-Wing Terrorism Is on the Rise,” written by scholars at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

The California Legislature passed, and Gov. Gavin Newsom eagerly signed, a bill that forbids law enforcement officers from concealing their identities with masks. The law applies to local as well as federal officers, but it’s clearly intended to make it easier to dox federal immigration agents. Of course the administration says it will ignore the law. So what happens when local and state officers try to enforce it? A war? California also forbids federal agents from enforcing immigration law in state courthouses. Again, the potential for blue-on-blue violence is ramped up by a Democratic

Several high-profile antifa leaders have fled the country or are actively making plans to abscond overseas. News of their escape comes after President Donald Trump designated antifa as a domestic terrorist threat and directed federal authorities to dismantle terrorism networks operating within the United States. Mark Bray, a financier of transnational antifa operations and antifa’s foremost thought leader in America, announced he is fleeing to Europe, settling in Spain specifically, under the pretext of safety concerns following negative media attention. Before his departure, Bray issued an apparent call-to-action, urging widespread militancy. “Only mass antifascism, legal or not, can save us,” Bray declared on Bluesky, a popular platform on the political Left.

The Trump administration’s approval of a Qatari air force base in Idaho isn’t popular with either of America’s political parties. Department of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the forthcoming Qatari Emiri Air Force facility in America’s heartland Friday morning, thanking the Middle Eastern nation for playing a “core part” in negotiating the ceasefire between Israel and Palestine. Mountain Home Air Force Base will host Qatari F-15 fighter jets and pilots, and allow Qatari forces alongside American troops for F-15 pilot training. The move, which stands in stark contrast to the president’s “America first” agenda, seriously rattled some of Donald Trump’s most outspoken supporters. “Never thought I’d see Republicans give terror financing Muslims

The cost for that Disney magic is going up. Walt Disney World has confirmed that it is raising prices on its theme park tickets, annual passes, and on some annual pass renewals. Disney World previously implemented "dynamic pricing," which means daily tickets to its theme parks vary by theme park, day, and demand. That will continue. Beginning during the 2026 holiday season, Disney confirmed that the highest ticket price point – only on its busiest days – could top $200 per person for a one-park, one-day ticket.

In a sharply divided vote, Spain’s parliament on Wednesday formally ratified a sweeping arms embargo on Israel, converting what had been an executive decree into permanent law. The motion passed by a narrow margin of 178 to 169, closing a political chapter and heightening tensions between Madrid and Tel Aviv. This new law has changed the status of the two‑year moratorium enacted at the onset of Israel’s war in Gaza into a binding statute. The newly approved legislation bans the export and import of all defense and dual‑use technologies, and it prohibits ships and aircraft carrying fuel or military‑usable cargo from entering Spanish ports or airspace.
