When Words No Longer Matter: Nancy Pelosi and Politics of Violence

It appears that words no longer matter to Nancy Pelosi. For years, Pelosi and other Democrats have blamed President Donald Trump and Republicans for their “inciteful rhetoric.” In seeking Trump’s impeachment, Pelosi bellowed that the use of “words such as a cry ‘to fight like hell'” produces violence and added, “words matter. Truth matters. Accountability matters.” No longer. After all, she explained, “we can’t take responsibility for the minds that are out there and how they hear it.”

Democrats and the media have long applied a double standard to political violence. CNN made “fiery but mostly peaceful” protests a national joke in describing riots that caused massive property damage and deaths. CNN’s Chris Cillizza even denounced Trump for using the word “riots” to describe the violent protests in Kenosha in 2020. Violence on the left cannot be riotous; it is righteous.

Pelosi has shown the same relativity. When a mob destroyed statues, Pelosi brushed aside the criminal conduct and said, “People will do what they do.” 

Pelosi’s latest pivot comes as Democratic leaders whip supporters into a frenzy over the impending death of democracy and the need to “fight back.”

Despite objections from many of us that the rhetoric was pushing supporters to violence, Democrats have continued to call for resistance to tyranny or oligarchy.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D, Mass.) declared, “Elon Musk is seizing the power that belongs to the American people.” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D, Md.) claimed on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that Musk and Trump were conducting a “rapidly expanding and accelerating coup.”

Sen. Ron Wyden (D., Ore.) appeared to be working off the same talking point and declared that a “coup” was being carried out. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) warned that Musk was “taking away everything we have.”

Many are using the very words that Pelosi previously said were not just impeachable but criminal incitement. Democrats ratcheted up claims of a “coup” and called for Democrats to “fight in the streets.”

House Minority Leader Hakeem  Jeffries (D., N.Y.) has called for people to take to the streets to save democracy and posted a picture brandishing a baseball bat.

Jeffries has also called for Democrats to fight  “in the streets.”

Former Democratic National Committee deputy chair Keith Ellison, now the Minnesota attorney general, once said Antifa would “strike fear in the heart” of Trump. Liberal sites sell Antifa items to celebrate the violent group.

California Governor Gavin Newsom declared, “I’m going to punch these sons of bitches in the mouth.” It follows other violent rhetoric from Democratic leaders.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D., Cal.) said, “We are here to fight back.” Sen. Cory Booker (D., NJ) called on citizens to “fight” and declared, “We will rise up.”

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., TX) yelled, “We are gonna be in your face, we are gonna be on your a–es, and we are going to make sure you understand what democracy looks like, and this ain’t it.”

Rep. LaMonica McIver (D., N.J.) added: “God d—it shut down the Senate!…WE ARE AT WAR!”

Such rhetoric can inspire unhinged citizens who actually believe that this is a war against a coup. It is the type of rhetoric that can prompt anti-Republican Nicholas John Roske to try to assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh or Sanders supporter James T. Hodgkinson to try to massacre Republican members playing softball.

Democrats have admitted that the rhetoric is causing many to consider violence. One House Democrat told Axios, “Some of them have suggested … what we really need to do is be willing to get shot.”

Yet another admitted that constituents have told them to prepare for “violence … to fight to protect our democracy.” Others reported that liberals are talking about the need “to storm the White House and stuff like that.”

One explained that “They’re angry beyond things.” Another said, “It’s like … the Roman coliseum. People just want more and more of this spectacle.”

Some are discussing triggering or staging violence. One member said, “What I have seen is a demand that we get ourselves arrested intentionally or allow ourselves to be victims of violence, and … a lot of times that’s coming from economically very secure white people.”

In one encounter, a lawmaker told Axios: “I actually said in a meeting, ‘When they light a fire, my thought is to grab an extinguisher’. And someone at the table said, ‘Have you tried gasoline?’”

However, when such arson and other violence occur, Democrats are mystified that anyone would point to their own rhetoric and responsibility. When the alleged shooter of Charlie Kirk was found to have scrawled antifa messages on his bullets, the response was again denial and deflection.

At CNN, the network repeated its “fiery but mostly peaceful”  approach to reporting. It told CNN viewers that there were “phrases related to cultural issues.” The wording was so painfully awkward and overly evasive that it only caused greater attention from viewers. CNN later admitted that the writing involved antifa references.

Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) was even angry with those acknowledging that the shooter was motivated by leftwing causes. He posted on X: “What f**king difference does it make if this murderer was left or right. Pull yourself together, read a book, get some exercise, have a whiskey or walk the dog or make some pasta or go fishing or just do anything other than let this algo pickle your brain and ruin your soul.”

Imagine if a MAGA supporter shot a Democrat. Would Schatz be calling for library and yoga visits?

However, Pelosi insists that words no longer matter. She may be speaking the truth when it comes to the left and the media. They do not matter if they convey righteously violent messages. It then becomes little more than “phrases related to cultural issues.”

  1. It’s interesting…, you and the right are beyond triggered not just by the Kirk assassination …, which is definitely very triggering by itself, but almost more by the fact irresponsible language has been directed at you and that it manifested in the sort of violence the right has routinely stirred up for the last decade or so.

    I feel bad for you guys mostly just because you’ve assumed it was your right to say anything you wanted regardless of the fallout. But, like with all aspects of white supremacy, there is a shelf life involved. Thoughts and prayers your way, Turls.

    1. Your attempt at equivalence is obvious, but it fails like most of your comments. Try finding the Republican congressmen who have matched the Democrats in threatening rhetoric.

    2. It is everyone’s right to speaks as they please with only a few limits.

      The consequences of speaking as you please might be losing your job – as many on the left are discovering right now.
      It may be to be ostracised from society – as increasingly the LEFT is finding themselves.

      The left has used every means possible – legal constitutional or not to silence anyone who challenged then – as Kirk did. SOME of that you were free to do. But just as you have demanded judgement on those who you politically disagreed with, increasingly they are asking the same judgement on you – and they are slowly getting it.

      Speech does have consequences – calling everyone who disagress with you a racist, homophobic, mysoginst white supremeisst has worked with many for a while. But tlike the little both who cried wolf – fewer and fewer people beleive you.

      Speech does have consequences – and the racists like you have passed the tipping point.
      It is not likely that you can recover your credibility.

      When you call others white supremecists or fascists anymore – outside your own shrinking circle – no one is listening.
      That is the consequence of speech that has over and over been found to be lies.

      There are several on the right here demanding revenge for the Kirk shooting.
      The revenge they want is NOT the assassination of those on the left, but the arrest and prosecution of those on the left – some for real crimes, others just for bad conduct or bad speech.
      Regardless, though that demand is perfectly understandable – and frankly you are really really lucky those on the right do not behave as you do, it is also not going to happen. The law and constitution are being followed allegations of misconduct are being investigated. Some – not all of those who have committed crimes will be prosecuted. Some of those prosecutions may fail. Regardless YOU lose.

      Throughout my life the left has been far better than the right at messaging – which is the only way they survived because their ideas have always been crap.
      But slowly since the emergence of the Tea Party the right has gotten better at messaging and the left gotten unbeleivably bad.

      You are losing the fight for peoples hearts and minds.

      One significant reason is because you call everyone who disagrees with you a white supremecist.

      I beleive Turley is incorrect that “Rage Rhetoric” causes violence.
      Inflamatory rhetoric destroys your credibility UNLESS that rhetoric is actually justified.

    3. Why do you say “white supremacy”?

      Why do you not say red supremacy, brown supremacy, yellow supremacy, black supremacy, rainbow supremacy, grey supremacy, or whatever?

  2. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., TX) yelled, “We are gonna be in your face, we are gonna be on your a–es, and we are going to make sure you understand what democracy looks like, and this ain’t it.”

    Rhetorical eloquence worthy of Elmer Fudd or Woody Woodpecker.

      1. Until the CP lobbed tear gas into a peaceful protest – YES.
        Even after thousands protested in the capital peacefully.

        The George Floyd riots are not what free speech looks like.
        The riots over deportations of illegal immigrants – 70% of whom are criminals is not what free speech looks like.

        The current vigils for Charlie Kirk ARE what free speech looks like.

        While Kirks assassination was likely the act of someone mentally unhealthy
        There are more of those on the left by far than right.

        It is also if not a turning point – another milestone in the left self destructing.

        We were only a few days from the left wing nut who slaughtered catholic children as they prayed.

        The left has an absolute right to protest Trump administration actions that they do not like.
        But you are not able to do so without violence – that tells everyone who you are.

        Further you stupidly try to interfere with law enforcement doing their jobs – enforcing the laws that as a nation we created. If you have trouble with those laws – take it up with congress
        JUST AS J6ers did – though hopefully the CP will not teargas you so long as you remain peaceful.

        People who MIGHT have sympathy for your cause have none for your antics.

        1. John Say,
          Correct!! I was going to say something similar but you did it so much better than I!! Well done!

    1. Just imagine, the Israelite slaves were out of Egypt before the ink was dry on their release papers, but then, they had the capacity and acumen sufficient to the task.

      Psycho, here’s what the “democracy” of the American Founders looks like:

      Naturalization Acts of 1790, 1795, 1798, 1802 (four iterations for clarity)

      United States Congress, “An act to establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization,” March 26, 1790

      Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That any Alien being a free white person, who shall have resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States for the term of two years, may be admitted to become a citizen thereof….

  3. Just in.
    This will drive the libs nuts.
    ______________________
    Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson lived with his transgender partner – a male to female trans.

    The transgender partner is cooperating with the FBI.

    The FBI used Robinson’s texts with his transgender partner to solidify Robinson was the assassin.

    1. DustOff,
      Thank you for providing that news.
      The Guardian interviewed one of Robinson’s friends who stated that Robinson was,
      “…Was “pretty left on everything” and was “the only member of his family that was really leftist…..The rest of his family was very hard Republican…”
      “Around sophomore year, the friend said, “Robinson became more extreme in his political views and would “always just be ranting and arguing about them”.

      Seems the whole MAGA, conservative narrative from the left is falling apart. Now, will our lefty anony moron admit to all his lies?

      1. That narative was absurd from the start.
        While it is not totally completely impossible that Trump or Shapiro plotted to assassinate Kirk the odds of that are infinitessimally small – so small it is not worth mentioning

        But the left has hung their hat on it.

        And as expected bit by bit the OBVIOUS is proving true

        This was a left wing nut acting violently.
        No Surprise.

        I found a “factcheck” site that claims the “living with a trans roommate” thing is single source speculation from a source with low credibility – Fox.
        But many aspects of that story are previously verified.
        We KNOW that Tyler texted someone to go pick up his rifle.
        Law Enforcement previously provided those texts.
        We were also told the texts were put onto discord.
        It is likely the press can access those.

        Law enforcement has been doing an excellent job of managing information in this case.
        Releasing what people actually need to know, when they need to know and holding back other information until it can be released without harming the investigation.

        The FACT that Tyler had a relationship of anykind – reduces the probability that he is Paranoid Schitz.
        It is not common for paranoid schitzes to beable to maintain relationship – but I know some who have.
        I do not know any of the violent paranoid schitzs that are responsible for most assassinations, domestic terrorism and mass shootings to have had successful relationships with others.

        The bad news for the left is that Tyler being mentally unwell was the BEST outcome for them.

        The more Tyler looks like Far left, rather than wing nut, the worse the left looks and the more culpable they appear to be.

  4. The lefts quest for Shangri-la and their deceitful script of what is awaiting those that join the parade on the road to perdition, is something to behold, as the flames of hell are clearly evident. The left rules with lies and obfuscations of the consequence of their ideas, there are so many instances: I’ll just point out the revolving door of their State and Local justice enforcement policies or should I say tactics, which release oppressive mayhem in the community. Their leadership preachers are nothing more than Two-Bit Tyrants’ with Snake-Oil breath hissing fire.

  5. Joe Biden said ‘Antifa’ didn’t exist.
    Jerry Nadler said the same.
    They sure do get a lot of media mention for a non-existent entity.
    Were I an Antifa participant, I’d make sure I had a bulletproof vest readily accessible. The turning point was reached a few days ago when Charlie Kirk was killed.

  6. ‘Politics of violence’ is but a strategy to fundamentally transform our constitutional republic . . . completely and forever.

  7. Johnny Say has pronounced that Tyler Robinson is probably mentally ill.
    Johnny Say is now an expert on mental illness, perhaps as a result of personal experience.
    He certainly is a jack of all trades.

    He recently claimed to be a registered architect in Pennsylvania with over 40 years experience.
    This of course is complete nonsense.
    His father, who died in 2013, was an architect for many years, but Johnny seems to think that the title of “architect” is a hereditary title that requires no training, and is simply passed from father to son.

    A while ago, he also claimed that he is an attorney.
    He challenged another commenter who tried to make a legal point, and he dismissed him saying “that is not what I learned in law school.”
    His wife is an attorney.
    Johnny seems to think that if you marry an attorney, then you magically also become an attorney.

    Yes indeed, Johnny is most certainly very familiar with mental illness.

      1. I am an astronaut, who was really the first person to walk on the moon.
        I am also a fighter pilot who flew an F-18 in the Gulf war.
        I am also a renowned surgeon who successfully performed the first face transplant.

        I invented a time machine that allows me to travel back and forward in time.

        What is your claim to fame ???

        1. Your claim to fame is your 40 proof rants, written at your kitchen table as you swill cooking sherry and swat flies with your baseball cap all day, lawn boy.

        2. Anyone with any degree of common sense, logic knows full well you are lying. Again. But that is all you have. Lies, lies, lies. Thank you for proving it to us all.

    1. Why would you choose to piss all over a claim that is Beneficial to left wing nuts ?
      If Robinson is paranoid Schitz – then Turley’s arguement that left wing rage rhetoric caused this is weakened.

      Regardless atleast 40% of all mass shooters assassins and domestic terrorists have mental health problems and are nearly always paranoid schitzophrenics

      “Johnny Say has pronounced that Tyler Robinson is probably mentally ill”
      Correct – note PROBABLY. I stated there were other possibilities.
      but given what we know NOW that conclusion fits best.
      Tomorow we could discover something different.

      “Johnny Say is now an expert on mental illness”
      No – though have have volunteered helping Paranoid Schitzophrenics.
      Regardless, you do not need to be an expert to have an opinion.
      I would also note that the “experts” – some of them even openly admit this,
      suck at diagnosing people.

      Studies have shown that ordinary people are LESS fooled by Psychopaths seeking parole than professionals.
      Psychopaths have by far the highest recidivism rate. There is no evidence that once a Psychopath has crossed the line into criminal conduct (most Psychopaths are NOT criminals) that they can be reformed or will ever stop.
      No Psychopath should ever get parole – they WILL re-offend.
      Regardless, the Professionals are much more likely to get fooled by them.
      Even Robert Hare – one of the worlds foremost experts on Psychopaths openly admitted that he was repeatedly fooled by many psychopaths.

      “perhaps as a result of personal experience.”
      Yes, if you have lived a full life and had a wide enough range of experiences it is likely that you will among other things encounter many people with mental health issues. I have experience with people suffering from anxiety and depression – the rates of those are so high most everyone has. I have also had extremely close personal experience with Criminal Trauma caused PTSD, and recovery from it. In a long life I have had several prolonged dealings with multiple sociopaths as well as friends and relatives who were paranoid schitzs.

      “He certainly is a jack of all trades.”
      It is called living a full life and learning from it.

      “He recently claimed to be a registered architect in Pennsylvania with over 40 years experience.”
      Not a claim.

      “This of course is complete nonsense.”

      “His father, who died in 2013, was an architect for many years”
      Correct.

      “but Johnny seems to think that the title of “architect” is a hereditary title that requires no training, and is simply passed from father to son.”
      As you were able to find my Father – then you should have been able to verify that I too am a registered architect.

      “A while ago, he also claimed that he is an attorney.”
      I have never claimed to be an attorney. What I have done is represent myself, my businesses, and my clients in various legal procedings. LOTS of them.

      “He challenged another commenter who tried to make a legal point, and he dismissed him”
      I have challenged innumerable other commenters who have offered garbage legal claims.
      Given the legal outcomes and the SCOTUS decisions of the past several years – I have an excellent track record.
      A better track record than the so called legal experts on the left many of whom are ivy league law professors.

      The effort required to earn any professional status earns a person respect for their opinions in that domain.
      But that respect only endures if their professional opinions prove correct nearly all the time.
      Conversely those who do not qualify as experts based on earned degrees can qualify as experts based on earning credibility through a long series of opinions that ultimately prove correct.
      And engineer whose buildings collapse can no longer claim expertise by waiving arround their degree, while the ordinary person who railed about the structural flaw prior to the collapse can.

      “saying “that is not what I learned in law school.””
      Never said that. I have said that I functioned as my wifes study partner when she was at UofP,
      and that she still solicits MY legal opinion on constitutional law and property law issues – despite the fact that she is one of the top criminal appelate lawyers in the state.

      “His wife is an attorney.”
      Correct.

      “Johnny seems to think that if you marry an attorney, then you magically also become an attorney.”
      Nope. But if you spend a great deal of time and effort dealing with legal issues – you acquire legal skill.
      If you have a reasonable degree of intelligence, that experience, plus historical knowledge of the evolution of western law and philosophy you can easily produce more trustworthy opinions that ideologically blinded left wing nuts.

      As we have seen over the past several years.

      “Yes indeed, Johnny is most certainly very familiar with mental illness.”
      Of course I have – you can not reach adulthood today without numerous encounters with people with mental health problems. I have little doubt you have had to deal with people with mental health problems.

      The difference between us – is that I have learned from my experiences.
      The difference between us – is that I do not make false claims and on the rare occasions I make errors I correct them.

      1. “on the rare occasions I make errors I correct them.”

        You and i share views on many topics, but That is a lie, John Say

        I have had to correct you on SEVERAL issues, military related. You never once acknowledged your errors.

        As an example, you hypothesized once that the Russians might have imbedded a missile submarine with the surface task force that was off the florida coast. And that they posed some greater threat to american cities because of proximity.

        That demonstrated a critical ignorance of submarine warfare tactics and the strategic capabilities of Russian nuclear forces.

        Instead you just went on to your next ignorant claim. Tom Clancy you aint.

        Waters, Capt, USN, Ret

        1. “As an example, you hypothesized once that the Russians might have imbedded a missile submarine with the surface task force that was off the florida coast. And that they posed some greater threat to american cities because of proximity.

          That demonstrated a critical ignorance of submarine warfare tactics and the strategic capabilities of Russian nuclear forces.”

          I do not recall any such discussion in the past 5 years atleast. Nor can I comment on YOUR characterization of a claim you allegedly made years ago without the actual claim that you beleive is in error.

          If you wish to provide me EXACTLY what I allegedly said – if it is clearly wrong – I will correct it.

          But without EXACTLY what I allegedly said – you appear to be citing a difference of opinion rather than one of FACT.

          Nor do I claim to be an expert on military tactics or strategy.
          That said – I Did hold a TS/SCI clearance 2 decades ago and I Did some work integrating a system by a company called ANZUS – now part of Rockwell Collins – into Aegis Cruisers
          I have also written software that is in some predators, and software for JPL that was so classifed I was not allowed to know what the purpose was. I have also worked on projects for the FBI and NSA – though not defense related.

          If you are the “anonymous” that is desparately trying to dox me and prove some of my claims regarding myself false – then you have enough information to be able to confirm much of the above.

          Instead you just went on to your next ignorant claim. Tom Clancy you aint.
          I have never claimed to be Tom Clancy.

          “Waters, Capt, USN, Ret”
          Thank you for your service.

          And as I have said REPEATEDLY if you point out (or I find) an error of FACT in something I have posted – I will correct it.

          I have very little doubt that in the thousands of posts I have made in the past decade there are a small number of uncorrected factual errors.

          But I can not address your allegation above as claims regarding strategy and tactics are mostly opinions.
          And we do not usually get to find out who is right about them short of an actual war – and I would hope that you join me in seeking to avoid a nuclear war.

          1. Its not surprising that you dont remember the conversation. You’ve a habit of opining ad nauseam on a wide range of topics on which you have very limited perspective.

            And I am absolutely NOT the anon who tried to doxx you, and am surprised that you would even consider that a possibility, given my credentials.

            When the Russian Navy was along the FL coast (and this was nowhere near 5 years ago) you made many comments regarding them. Among them you opined that they might have a missile submarine with them, and if they did, that they could fire their missiles before we could stop them and they’d be able to hit most us cities from there.

            Which was absurd. The whole game of strategic warfare is predicated on submarines being undetected. Missile boats a) dont travel with armadas and b) dont need to be anywhere near our coast to reach most US cities. I corrected you and gave a lengthy dissertation on why that was bullshlt, based on my first hand knowledge and experience.

            Where the Russians missile boats hang out is not an opinion. How far their missiles reach is not an opinion. Our ability to track them and eliminate a threat from them is not an opinion, especially if they were dumb enough to travel with a task force in our coastal waters..

            Its fantastical conjecture on your part and factual recitation on mine.

            I’ve pulled up posts from the past when Gigi refused to acknowledge what she said, I suppose I could do the same for you. But you supposedly have a steal trap memory as well, as I recall.

        2. “on the rare occasions I make errors I correct them.”

          “You and i share views on many topics, but That is a lie, John Say”

          How can anyone believe anything you said without a record of credibility? John Say has excellent credibility, and though I am sure he rarely makes mistakes, there is no way anyone can trust that what you said is accurate.

          Assuming you were correct in this account, unlikely, why would he pay attention to one who is afraid to obtain an alias and icon? For all he knows, you might be Sigmund Fraud and by now we all learned Sigmund Fraud is an ignorant fraud.

    2. ATS
      The recent news that Tyler was in a relationship with an MTF trans person decreases the probability that he was a paranoid schitz. I am not aware of a violent paranoid schitz who maintained a relationship.

      Frankly there are very few mass killers, domestic terrorists, or assassins that have maintained relationships.
      While the “lone Wolf” characteristic is not absolute it is very nearly so.

      So you MIGHT get what you want – the FACTS MIGHT undermine my assertion that he is likely mentally unhealthy.

      But that just makes things worse for the left.

      I have repeatedly posted here that most of these supposed acts of political violence are the acts of mentally unhealthy people. To the extent that is true – the violent political rhetoric of the parties has little to do with their acts of violence.
      Nuts killers are going to kill and they will have SOME often bizarre justification for doing so. But they were going to kill regardless.

      But if Tyler is NOT mentally ill – then he is culpable, not a victim of his mental illness – he made a choice,
      And Turley’s argument that political violence is driven by left wing rage rhetoric holds up – atleast in this specific case.

  8. Washington’s Elite in and now out of office will protect the Money Tree at all cost. They have full disregard for the actions and what concerns the People.

    Both sides keep the guise on so the money will flow. Endless rhetorical that blinds and steals away the true power of the People into a darkness fueled by Media hypnosis.

    Politicians, Talking Heads, and Industrial Influencers bind souls in lies and servitude, to serve one Master – All Mighty Dollar –

    Wall Street, Main Street, Back Street, IT”S ALL THE SAME, Cash Flow is KING! The BLOOD MONEY that keeps the Global Machine lubricated and running smoothly.

    Cranking out Warfare, Insurrection, Strife, Suffering, Starvation, Suicides. Yeah, Nancy’s got Your Number, the one they tattooed on your body and in your mind and soul.

    Like a prisoner in today’s Holocaust, We are tagged, cataloged, and stocked, the Commodity of Your Life is quantized and valuated for it’s contributions to the Money Machine. In the Grand Parade of lifeless Human Packaging already to serve.

    Make no mistake – There’s is no question WHY they RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE.

    2. Why are the Democrat’s rhetoricals contrived “Ragefare”.
      The end of this video answer the question Jonathan:

      “Usually when people are sad, they don’t do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change.” -Malcolm X

      That’s Why.
      No mas mentiras

    3. This is the beginning of The Digitized Holocaust:

      Facial Recognition,
      Bio Metric Prints,
      Block Chain Serial Numbers,
      Actuarial and Appraisal Valuation,
      AI Quantization,
      Lifetime Data retention …

      What Data Center Silo do you belong to?
      What Serial Block Chain are you assigned to?
      What Bio Metric categories do you match?
      What is the value of your FICA score?
      What is your quantized economic viability?
      What’s your Number?

      1. You see a potential future, and we saw some of it in the past. My mother-in-law had those numbers on her arm, but perhaps worse, the Nazis collaborated with IBM so that before they even entered a city in many countries, they had the punch-cards of every Jew listed with name, telephone, addresses, etc., and what camp they went to. IBM was paid, and the CEO got a rake-off for each card. IBM and the Holocaust: The Strategic Alliance between Nazi Germany and America’s Most Powerful Corporation by Edwin Black.

        Yet even after the Holocaust, it appears another list is being compiled at Dartmoth (maybe Duke)

      The Grand Parade Of Lifeless Packaging

    1. B O O Y A H . . . A really, really great suggestion and concept that should be blasted . . . especially to the White House, Turning Point U S A, internet influencers and Glenn Beck.

          1. Colbert once was funny – but it was a very long time ago.
            The left has not been able to be funny in a long long time.

            I appreciate a good joke – even if it gores one of my sacred cows.
            But comedians confusing political commentary which they are not very good at for comedy is stupid.

        1. It can be. It also does not matter at all.
          Colbert got fired.
          Could be because he pissed someone off
          But my Money would be on the fact that he was loosing the network 10’s of millions of dollars a year.
          That is a powerful motive.
          I would fire my best friend if they were losing me tons of money.

    1. The CEO of CBS stated that they made the decision to end the Colbert show as a financial one. It was costing CBS some $40M a year loss to produce the show. Anyone with any degree of common and financial sense knows, if you are spending more than you are taking in, you are a liability. So, they ended the contract and show.
      The fact Trump was happy is irrelevant to the decision.
      The fact Colbert is trying to spin it as a political decision just goes to show how disconnected he is with financial reality. Note, he never offered to take a pay cut.

      1. He only attended one semester of college, but you’re right he was radicalized, but in high school and from social media. Mark my words social media will be the death of democracy worldwide. We’re already seeing it.

        There’s crazies on both sides and I predict, though I pray I’m wrong, that some right wing crazy will murder a left wing journalist or political figure.

        The left’s message will be “we need to rise up in the streets” and they will, but they’ve already done that and they’ve normalized murder as a justified response to LANGUAGE from someone who has a different viewpoint on politics, religion, trans issues, men in women’s sports, etc. Charlie Kirk died simply because he gave voice to the different message.

        1. Greg: Thanks for thought-provoking and honest comment. I assume by your name that you are male; I’m going to mention something even more narrowing, -from my own life and professional experience.
          Yes, crazies on both sides. But it seems that young, white males are prone to this sort of thing. I think of all forms of vandalism, animal cruelty, and really ugly, violent crimes against individuals.
          An honest question: Why do you think they might be so vulnerable to such extremist reaction to whatever triggers them?

      2. Wow, you really have drunk the MAGA Koolaid.

        He attended Utah State University for 1 semester and then dropped out.
        He took engineering classes.
        Utah State is ranked the 8th most conservative school in the country.
        The students are 90% white and almost all Mormons.
        It is ranked as more conservative than Biola University.
        Biola = Bible Institute of Los Angeles

        Utah State University (USU) is located in Logan, Utah, and it’s considered among the most conservative nonreligion-affiliated universities in America. Its location in Utah attracts local Latter-day Saints (LDS) students, which adds to the conservative atmosphere.
        https://collegerover.com/campus-library/news/128/most-conservative-colleges-in-us

        So obviously Utah Sate University is a hotbed of radical leftist indoctrination.
        They are well known for their woke engineering program.
        One semester and you go from MAGA to Marxist.

        Get a grip you ignorant MAGA moron.

        1. “One semester and you go from MAGA to Marxist.”

          Who said he was ever Maga, ya lying spastic?

          he assassinated a leading conservative activist. You seem to think it’s because he had nothing better to do.

          Res ipsa loquitor, moron

        2. It seems to me, that Robinson, the poor bastage, hated himself beyond all reason. He was sleeping with a tranny who had a six shooter in the holster, and desperately pretending otherwise to be normal person, attempting to go to college, performing all the normal rituals of a normal person, all the while looking in the mirror wondering how his miserable life had turned out so disastrous that he was unable to even find a real female to play wifey with; unable to stand up to what was likely his Father’s upstanding reputation in the community, knowing that his own life was the reversal of everything his family had taught him while listening to the lies fomented by this society that; “It’s your right to do whatever you want, just use your imagination to justify your actions.” If someone disagrees it’s because you are their victim, and you are being suppressed by all those mean people out there that don’t think like you do.

          What did he say? That; “Kirk was full of hate”. Yet it was Tyler Robinson who was full of hate. Kirk hated Satan, whether one believes in God or not, doesn’t change the fact that Kirk believed in God, and as he saw it, was on God’s mission to spread the gospel. Not hate. Robinson was also on a mission. To end his hatred of himself. Which must have been hurting him beyond belief. Kirk would have known the pain Robinson felt even though he didn’t know Robinson. It was exactly what Kirk was espousing. That there is a cure for that hatred. But you have to ask for it. It’s not granted as a participation award.

          —————————————
          –Oddball
          “Take it easy Big Joe, some of these people got sensitive feelings.”

        3. Yet he was radicalized on ANTIFA Discord servers, despite is hard core Republican family. He was living with his “Trans” boy/girlfriend” whom is cooperating with the FBI and verified that it was his trans boy/girlfriend who help them established he was the assassin, and that the Guardian interviewed his friends to confirm that he was not just leftists but hard leftists,
          “…Was “pretty left on everything” and was “the only member of his family that was really leftist…..The rest of his family was very hard Republican…”

          Around sophomore year, the friend said, Robinson became more extreme in his political views and would “always just be ranting and arguing about them”.

          Oh. It does not fit your narrative does it? I fully expect you to NOT acknowledge those facts. It would only defeat your narrative. And you cannot have that!

        1. No. He was radicalized by what our oh so very smart Lin pointed out, Stochastic terrorism, which is what the Democrats promoted as the good professor notes.

          1. UF – that is still speech, and still protected speech.

            Assuming that this proves to be politically motivated – NOT mental health related.

            This is more disturbing. But a part of the price for free speech is that left wing loons get to try to turn teens into violent terrorists. The good news is that they rarely succeed.
            The bad news is rare is not never.

      1. goodbeavis and anonymous at 10:58: Agree. He clearly was not in the mold of his parents, and it was his own family members who turned him in. Sorry to burst the bubble of anonymous ar 10:57

      2. She is not dumb. She gets paid to post those things by Chorus which apparently fly assigned her to Prof Turley and dishonesty is her middle name

      3. He is dishonest. His parents were likely conservatives and religious. After the shooting, Tyler told his father he would rather commit suicide than turn himself in. His father, with the help of a priest, convinced him to surrender and then turned him in.

        That is how religious conservatives act: they value responsibility over loyalty to wrongdoing. Tyler, by contrast, behaved like many on the left when he chose cowardice, preferring death to facing what he had done.

    1. And what does that have to do with the price of tea in China? So his family is “MAGA.” So what. Big deal. We can see that this kid was not. This moral equivalency is garbage, and what one does when they can’t win the argument. Both sides don’t do it. All of the violence we have been seeing is coming from one side. And it’s not the “MAGA” people. It is absolutely true that liberalism is a mental disorder. We anxiously await a reasoned, thoughtful response. But then again…..

    2. A civil conflict. A family divided. Tyler is the Democratic front of the Confederate army fighting to secure slavery and DEIsm against the blue union states led by Republicans.

    3. Correct and every hour more and more people in his family, friends, neighbors etc are coming forward and identifying him as far left.

  9. At least two or three times over the past year or so, I have expressly mentioned “stochastic terrorism.” Not a single person took me on or even commented, -negative or positive. I was clearly surprised.
    So let me say it again, on a lighter note and in different, more palpable terms:

    (leaving out all the generalized taunts of “extremist,” “deranged,” “crazy,” “needing psychiatric help,” etc.,-
    One side criticizes and name-calls the other side as “Woke” or “Left-wing” “progressive” liberals.
    The other side criticizes and name-calls the others as “Fascists” or “Racists” or “Homophobics” or “Nazis.”

    Stop and think about that.
    ??Which side aims to inspire and rile up certain distinct members of a society, in order to unite them together as One, — against an otherwise majority, –all while innocently looking the other way and letting them do all the dirty work??

    (…I guess that beats the good ole days of our parents, when the sling-back was, “You’re ugly and your mother wears combat boots!”

    1. Lin, I never saw your s.t. comments but I had to look it up to see what it means: “Stochastic terrorism is a form of political violence instigated by hostile public rhetoric directed at a group or an individual. Unlike incitement to terrorism, stochastic terrorism is accomplished with indirect, vague or coded language, which grants the instigator plausible deniability for any associated violence.”

      1. Howdy NotSoOld: Yes, and while my example may speciously appear to mention more direct, non-vague, or non-coded language, –still, the intent is to rile and unite others, all while standing back as an innocent bystander not personally engaged in any violence.

        1. (p.s., I just mentioned it again last week or the week before in a simple one-sentence reply, to wit, “stochastic terrorism, pure and simple.” but I don’t remember the topic or the addressee.)

      2. example of s.t.
        “Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries posted an awkward photo of him holding a baseball bat yesterday that wasn’t quite clear in how it connected to his initial message of “House Democrats will keep the pressure on Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill.”
        He then, inexplicitly, later changed his message to “Protecting your healthcare is as American as baseball, motherhood and apple pie.”

    2. Lin
      doesn’t the left call themselves (“Woke” or “Left-wing” )
      Can’t miss it when talking about out colleges.

    3. Lin, I agree with your obserations, and I think the disparity between left and right is even greater than you are claiming.

      One of the issues is that even when the words are the same – those on the left genuinely mean them.

      Trump increasingly gets a pass on his rhetoric – and deservedly so. No one beleives that certain of the things he says are to be taken litterally.

      With the left – that is not clear.

      While I do NOT think that Sen. Schumer intended to threaten SCOTUS with assassination.
      he did threaten them. The threats were real, and while we do not know EXACTLY what those threats meant – they were not throw aways.

      Henry II said
      “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?”
      And Thomas Becket – formerly a friend of Henry was murdered.

      Trump says “maybe they should lose their broadcast license” and nothing happens.

  10. Charlie Kirk. Thoughts and prayers.RIP. Kash Patel: “Rest now, brother. We have the watch and I’ll see you in Vahalla.” Bizarre comment! Turns out Tyler Robinson is not ANTIFA or a liberal Dem but a right wing gun nut!

    1. In the words of a great philosopher, “you been lyin’ when you oughta be truthin’ “- Nancy Sinatra, These Boots are Made for Walkin’.

      The shooter is a left wing Antifa loving loser that your side created. Deal with it you piece of garbage.

        1. They are certainly trying. Look at the idiot troll on here claiming the dude was Maga. so stupid they can’t even come up with a plausible lie

        2. The left is truly happy, rejoicing the murder of Kirk as a hater. Robinson is a hero as is Mangione.

          I guess it is Hades after all. Surprising there’s strawberry jam. I further suppose it’s destroyed every 1000 years. It’s one of many worlds. I wonder where we’ll go from here. 🤔.

          Adieu

      1. The funny thing is that both Crooks and Robinson were from white, working-class, conservative families. While I assume that is just a coincidence, any reasonable investigator would have to look at how these young men became radicalized weapons of the Left. Did they get recruited to deflect blame from the Left? Is it a coincidence or a connection? It needs to be looked at.

        1. They can come from any socioeconomic class. It’s the vice that’s the connection. There’s always a vice that can’t be released. Even the do-gooders have a vice of personal inclination that gives them pleasure, Dio.

          Why does gramma pray at the entrance to clinics when she can easily pray at home? To be seen? People become attached to sorrow when their duty is to pursue happiness? Lawfully of course…

          So it is…

        2. “Is it a coincidence or a connection?”

          Both were young. Youth and a lack of common sense turn people vulnerable to the left. But you suspect a connection. So do I, even if the connection is not as direct as we are used to. The close timing, frequency, and surrounding circumstances are bothersome.

          1. If he’s found hanging in his cell with the video camera not working, we’ll know there was a connection.

  11. Y’know, Tyler Robinson didn’t shoot Charlie Kirk to silence him (as media has repeatedly stated), he shot him in an effort to notch his belt as “warrior for the cause” amongst those – virtually the entire left – advocating violence. Rage rhetoric functions to create enraged murderers, that is precisely what Turley is stating. He is absolutely correct, Democrats know he’s absolutely correct, which is precisely why they have employed it and allow it to continue.

    But let me remind, those who fail to see the forest through the trees will one day grow to mourn the loss of those trees. And with them? The forest which is America.

  12. The Dems are in favor of actual violence. Their uncontainable glee at the slaying of Charlie Kirk proves that. As long as the violence targets people they dislike, of course. Why would they oppose violent rhetoric against those same people?

    The Dems also oppose free speech. So again, why wouldn’t they try to silence the people they oppose?

      1. Are you kidding me. Look who Bill Clinton hung out with Bill Ayers who bombed DC.

        I guess you have not pain any attention to history. Try the PR gang who attacked DC

  13. Why does it seem strange that Turley, an alleged free speech advocate, is arguing that words caused the shooter to shoot Kirk?

    1. Because you’re a moron.

      Turley isn’t advocating the suppression of their speech by others

      His appeal is to reasonable people to think about the consequences of their words.

      There is nothing inconsistent with that in regards to free speech

      And I repeat, you’re a moron

    2. Anonymous, there’s a difference between speaking freely and murdering your political opponents.
      What you should be doing is condemning the encouragement to violence by your fellow Democratic supporters of ANTIFA. My right to free speech ends when I point a gun at someone’s nose and so does yours. In the past you have advocated for hate speech laws and censorship on Twitter and Facebook but now you try to use the free speech card to defend Democrats who are calling for physical not rhetorical violence. If a politician says I’ll punch him in the nose he absolutely knows that he himself will not punch him in the nose but he is encouraging his advocates to do so for him. It’s like John sitting at a table in a prison cafeteria saying, hey Joe, Bob over there said you are a snitch. Like John in prison or Gavin Newsom in California they both know that what will happen is what they want to happen. There’s not a hairs width of distance between the two.

  14. Why does it seem that the alleged free speech lovers want to
    control speech like gun control advocates want to control guns.
    Words don’t kill people, people kill people.

    1. Inciting violence is illegal. Always has been.

      “Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.” Isaac Asimov

      Leftists had no answer for Charlie Kirk’s arguments, so they murdered him.

        1. If you read back through the replies you received you’ll see that along with the name calling you actually did get answers to your questions. But rather than reflect on the responses and address them, you chose to childishly resort to simplistic alternative “why” questions. It’s an old and tiresome strategy used by people with low IQ’s. You know…morons.

    2. And all those words that Hitler spoke didn’t kill anybody. Thank you for such a well thought out argument. Even today, in America he could say what he wants to say but proven incitement to violence is not protected by the law.

  15. No Man Is an Island

    No man is an island,

    Entire of itself;

    Every man is a piece of the continent,

    A part of the main.

    If a clod be washed away by the sea,

    Europe is the less,

    As well as if a promontory were:

    As well as if a manor of thy friend’s

    Or of thine own were.

    Any man’s death diminishes me,

    Because I am involved in mankind.

    And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;

    It tolls for thee.

  16. If there can be consequences for freely speaking, then why not consequences for freely voting, or freely buying a gun?

    1. There are consequences for freely voting

      do the terms, Joe Biden, and 9% inflation mean anything to you, moron?

      You aren’t clever
