Dueling revolutions
The past few years, maybe the past few decades have been dominated by the left. This is somewhat unusual since first world countries have become somewhat affluent and supposedly educated. I would argue that they are much less civilized. The institutions have been taken over by the left, especially the university and the media. Even the Pope who recently died was an unapologetically man of the left. It all happened rather quietly, just like America's manufacturing sector disappearing.
The descendants of the greatest generation appear to have had enough. There is a counter revolution taking place led by Donald Trump. Trump connected with working people or as they were called "Clingers," "deplorables," and only a year ago "animals." Trump may have been a bit crass, but he was also authentic, and he is the antithesis to the radicalism of Biden/Obama. All of the radicalism that began gradually under Obama and burst forth under Biden is now being rejected. The battle is being waged mostly by the media and district courts that have gone far beyond their authority.
As for the democrat party, it is still in the hands of the far left. Recently the DNC's new vice chair David Hogg decided to commit millions from the DNC coffers to defeat "older" more moderate democrats in the primaries, thus leaving democrats with more radical candidates. What qualifications does Hogg have to be the DNC vice chairman? Actually, none to speak of. The 25-year-old gained national stature as an outspoken survivor of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. He hasn't really accomplished anything in private or public life. The energy & money in the democrat party continues to be on the far left. Its stars are radical loons like AOC, Jasmine Crockett and the old Socialist Bernie Sanders. Their revolution has been along the lines of the Maoist Cultural Revolution with calls for violence and recent polling showing that many on the left are ok with Trump or Musk being assassinated.
"Data released Monday from the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) found “48% and 55%” of “left of center” people “at least somewhat justifying murder for Elon Musk and President Trump, respectively.” The findings come after a historically violent election season in 2024, which saw two assassination attempts on Trump in July and September."

Good morning and welcome to the news.
The SCOTUS is considering a very important case involving basic parental rights.
"A majority of justices sounded inclined to require public schools to provide parents with an opportunity to opt their children out of certain storybook readings as the Supreme Court grappled Tuesday with a case about religious freedom.
A group of Muslim, Christian and Jewish parents sued the Montgomery County Board of Education, which oversees Maryland’s largest school district, after the board refused to allow parents to pull their elementary school children from lessons with LGBTQ+ themes."
Supreme Court signals support for Maryland parents in LGBTQ book challenge - POLITICO
Progressives who control that school board are going to the mat to ensure they can force preschoolers to read books about sex workers and bondage. One can only wonder why.
“One can only wonder why.”
In order to normalize their sick, twisted, lifestyle they need to start with the young and impressionable.
And they wonder why their poll numbers are so low.
And all the while they claim they are not going after the children.
Just Wrong !
What is? You mean trying to continue on a federal case after the feds abandon it?
and WHY was it abandoned again...?
"Federal prosecutors filed a motion to dismiss the corruption charges against Adams in February, arguing that Adams can't effectively cooperate on immigration enforcement if he is fighting a corruption case. But prosecutors also asked for the right to bring the charges again."
Judge dismisses corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams
It's really indefensible, given the history of corruption of most NYC mayors.
With the accusations supported by the Turkish investors public comments, this was a no brainer.
WHY are you not supporting the rule of law?
That should have been clue enough for any man winking to a blind horse as to Adam's guilt.
But I guess Trump's DOJ supporters are the horse with the blinders on.
"Data released Monday from the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) found “48% and 55%” of “left of center” people “at least somewhat justifying murder for Elon Musk and President Trump, respectively.”
That is more than a little scary.
Very!
What is scary, is that you can;t understand Y, why people are so upset when they see the rich and powerful LYING through their teeth about what is Constitutional and not, what is 'right' and the WRONG that they've already gotten away with, that so many good Patriotic Americans fought and died just to achieve, as those two clowns continue to just deceive.
These two have set this country back an easy decade so far, and you wonder why people are so upset ? People will die as the result of these greedy bassturds all over the world, the entire world economy has been upset, and it's gonna get worse before any better, and those midterms are coming fast, cause Trump ain't gonna last as he fux up more and more everyday, and that ain't the American Way...
And that (even if it were true)makes violence and assassination acceptable? So much for democracy and rule of law.
That's the idea.
So whatever it is you are dreaming about makes it OK to hope for the assassination of a private citizen, or even anyone for that matter.
That is just sick thinking.
What are you tlking about ? It is absolutely TRUE, unless you live under a rock, or only watch Fox and "Newsmax", and I didn't say it was acceptable, that is the growing number of people that are actually waking up to the reality of what these two have done and plan to do.
If you want to be a dicktater twot grabber, there are consequences.
i was not part of this poll
Who decides who deserves to be murdered?
not me
but do realize that Fuck around and find out
saying can ring true
Sounds a little threatening
You mean like Bernie Sanders and AOC on their "tour"? Millionaires touring the US talking about rich and powerful LYING through their teeth about what is Constitutional and not. And you want to talk about clowns.
Oh please. It set the DEMOCRATS and the left back a few decades. They have you all crying over your slaves AGAIN, talking about "who's going to pick (insert fruit / vegetable)".
The United States is only responsible for THE UNITED STATES. Why is that so hard for so many to grasp?
And the only thing that happened was the rest of the world is no being treated as they treat the US.
The Hennepin County Attorney's Office says it will not seek criminal charges against a 33-year-old Minneapolis man accused of damaging at least six Tesla vehicles, causing thousands of dollars in damage.
I thought this was DOMESTIC TERRORISM. Where is the DOJ?
Just like the 2020 riots over a drug overdose, it's all about who supports it.
Yet I keep hearing about the rule of law.
But only in certain circumstances.
I'm still surprised at what they lived through over the past 4 years without much commentary.
I've got it all figured out.
The quickest and easiest way to get rid of every illegal in this country is to have President Trump come out and say he will allow every illegal to stay in the country, free from fear of removal.
Guaranteed, within hours, every democrat, whether in Congress or not, will come out and demand Trump deport every one of these illegals, and since they only just now became worried of the rule of law, will easily forget about that and demand they are gone within days.,
Problem solved
You're welcome.
That is about how these idiot democrats work.
Two tiered law. One for progressives, one for proles.
That I expect from the progressives. What I want to know is why the DOJ isn't on that case.
Maybe Elon can take some of that subsidy money and get them fixed.. 8 million a day really should cover it.
Or maybe those who claim they stand for the rule of law could actually stand by it.
David Hogg, for all his idiocy, at least admits his contempt for democracy. So many in his party pretend to respect it.
I believe it was the current leader of Turkey who said that democracy is just the bus you use to get to authoritarianism.
As Democrats flock to El Salvador to fight for an gang member. To bad they don't fight for US Citizens like they do for illegals.
Trump is really fortunate in his enemies. In a time of economic chaos, Democrats spent all their time fighting for an El Salvadorean gang member illegally in the US.
What I think if hilarious is that they actually think the US President has the authority to place somebody in another countries jails.
I don't know which is more hilarious
Your statement despite the fact that the US President DID put people in the jails of another country without proper authorization from a Court.
or the 4 votes you got which were apparently from some sort of team reflex.
Sad.
too ironic that you don't understand what people are actually fighting via through this individual, for all Americans, as what was done and what Trump wants done, as in being able to send Americans to places like this without proper court cases, is what they are fighting against. Due process what proper process through our system requires, because it is scary you think this fight is not about US citizens
Oh, I fully understand. I just don't understand it the way you WANT me to.
The due process was carried out multiple times. He's NOT a US citizen. He was sent back to his home country.
The gang banger Maryland man has had all kinds of due process in several courts
“…has had all kinds of due process in several courts.”
This is not a numbers game. It is a Constitutional right that is applied to all cases and in every circumstance. It is simply mind numbing to have this administration blatantly attempt to circumvent the law.
Was it all conservatives' mothers who were victims of this gang banger which is why they are so intent on making sure this guy stays in an El Salvadoran prison even though they know his alleged ties with a gang have never actually been proven in an actual court where he was allowed to provide a defense against hearsay evidence? Were all these poor white conservative mothers gang banged by this man making the bitter hate toward him from these sons justified?
If anyone was hurt by this man, please do show us on the doll where he touched you which would justify abandoning due process and just sending a young man who could potentially be completely innocent, have no gang ties and qualify for asylum under US laws and would be an asset to help work and support his American wife and child instead of being shipped off to an El Salvadoran prison for some crime no one here seems to be able to actual define.
The only two reasons I can see that someone would cling to the "He must be guilty! He must be a danger to our nation! He must be imprisoned in El Salvador!" despite all the facts is that they're either so desperate to defend Trump in anything he does that this guy's life and his family just don't matter for the greater MAGA good, or they're just miserable bigots who just hate the idea of any brown Spanish speaking person born south of the border ever setting foot in "their white conservative Christian" nation and believe every undocumented immigrant, even if being here is often only a misdemeanor, deserve to be in an El Salvadoran prison.
The problem is the rulings of the courts aren't what they want them to be. So, they foolishly dismiss it and keep running with their narrative.
No. he can't. He tried that and lost. He has zero legal right to be in the US.
Either u don't understand, or you are choosing to be willfully ignorant, suit yourself, just realize ANY person, a citizen or not, is supposed to get their day in court, ;due process: and there was a standing court order I do believe that said he was NOT to be sent back to El Salvador, any other country except El Salvador was a judges conclusion and order. The administration already ADMITTED the fckd up, so I don;t get what U, don't get, as stated, suit yourself, what ever you 'want'; to believe, isn't always what our Constitution stated, and that is the supposed Law of the Land, that Trump and his mandate Elon are constantly challenging pr flat out violating, and that is WRONG !
And he had his "day in court".
Whoever thought Carville would be the voice of sanity in the democrat party.
"James Carville calls David Hogg's plan to primary 'ineffective' Dems the 'most insane thing' he's ever heard"
It is a risky game.
David Hogg is betting that democrats will simply vote via party affiliation no matter who is on the ballot in a general election.
Breaking: Sen. Dick Durbin, No. 2 Senate Democrat, to retire.
Dick Durbin, No. 2 Senate Democrat, announces retirement
He pushed a lot of the radical judges through.
Good riddance. What an awful person.
Possibly the worst Senator in the country, a guy who proudly kept a man off the federal bench because he was hispanic and compared American troops with nazis.
He is from Illinois.
An even more radical "glass half full of water with a D on it" leftist is waiting in the wings to take his place.
They aren't worried about losing his seat.
I'll bet many have forgotten.
Back in a few ...
The sad part of this is that because of a Biden Administration failure many (about almost 1.9 million) have been unable to start paying on their loans.
So not only did Biden ignore the SCOTUS, they ignored Congress as well..
