“It’s Not Going to End Well for Them”: Susan Rice Joins Call for a Revenge Purge After Democrats Re-Take Power

As Democrats plan for the possible takeover in the midterms and 2028 election, they are already openly discussing their push for radical changes in our political system, including packing the Supreme Court to guarantee that those changes are allowed. Many are also pledging trials, impeachments, and investigations of anyone who supported President Donald Trump in a purging of politics and government. The latest to join the revenge purge pledge is Susan Rice, Democratic powerbroker and top policy adviser to both President Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

In an interview this week, Rice declared that supporters of Trump can expect the proverbial knocks on their doors: “A very prominent public figure, who has served at nearly the very highest levels, once told me … ‘Revenge is best served cold,’ and the older I get, the more I see the wisdom of that.”

She added:

When it comes to the elites, you know, the corporate interests, the law firms, the universities, the media … it’s not going to end well for them, for those that decided that they would act in their perceived very narrow self-interest, which I would underscore, is very short-term self-interest, and, you know, take a knee to Trump.

The promise to crackdown political opponents is hardly unexpected in this age of rage. Indeed, Democrats can point to the purging of the federal ranks, particularly at the Justice Department, as further justification for a tit-for-tat response.

Democratic politicians and pundits have been fueling the anger of their base with ludicrous claims that democracy is about to die since the 2020 election. They have now used anti-ICE protests to stoke the anger in the hope that it will return them to power in the midterm elections.

Bravo star and liberal podcast host Jennifer Welch praised footage of a “No Kings” protester celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk. After playing the clip, Welch laughed with joy and declared, “So listen up, Democratic establishment. You can either jump on board with this s—, or we’re coming after you in the same way that we come after MAGA. Period.”

The pledge for revenge purges is an obvious way to further motivate a mob. In my book, Rage and the Republic, I discuss how elected officials often try to enlist mobs to advance their political agendas — only to be consumed by the unrest they helped fuel. This yielding to a “mobocracy” was one of the critical dangers that the Framers sought to deter through protections against majoritarian tyranny.

It is a history that figures like Rice are ignoring in the hope of riding this rage wave back into power. The fact is that history has shown that “it’s not going to end well” for establishment figures like Rice who believe that they can control a mob.

  1. “Rice was a principal operator of autopen-driven policy execution, which attracted scrutiny due to both the volume of documents and the perception of policymaking without the president physically present.”

    “During her tenure as Domestic Policy Advisor from 2021 to 2023, Susan Rice was highlighted in reports examining the Biden administration’s extensive use of autopens—automated devices for signing documents. Rice was closely associated with major policy initiatives, including loan forgiveness programs, that were signed via autopen, sometimes late at night while President Biden was away in Delaware. Critics framed this practice as an “autopen-ocracy,” raising concerns that key policies and executive actions, including the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan, were being executed without the president’s direct oversight. While autopens are standard in modern administrations, the scrutiny of Rice centers on the unusually high volume and speed of their use.”

  2. If you need evidence of the complete corruption of ICE, look no further than a recent episode of an elderly British couple who were trying to leave the country into Canada on their way home.

    Bill Newton, aged 66, had been working for a large international company in the US on a valid work visa. International companies can get visas for their employees to work for their US subsidiaries, but the employee can only work for their sponsoring company. His wife Karen, aged 65, had remained in the UK.

    Bill had been trying to get a green card with the help of his company, but the Trump administration had made it much more difficult to do so. Bill got frustrated and decided to retire and bring his wife to the US to spend a few months of vacation touring the West and Canada before returning home. Karen entered on a valid tourist visa good for six months.
    They toured through the West then tried to cross into Canada. There was some problem with the paperwork for their car, so Canada sent them back to the US side to resolve it. ICE then noticed that Bill’s work visa had recently expired, but this was after he had stopped working months previously. ICE arrested them both and held them in custody for 6 weeks.
    Eventually, ICE told them that if they volunteered to “self-deport” then the government would pay for their fare back home, but they would be banned from the US for 10 years. They accepted the offer.

    Karen had been detained for 6 weeks, despite the fact that her visa was valid and she was in full compliance with its conditions. During incarceration Karen asked why she had been detained despite having a valid visa. She was told that since she helped her husband pack for the trip, she was therefore an “accomplice” in his violation of his visa conditions. They also told her that ICE agents get a bonus dependent on the number of people they detain and deport. Obviously she was easy pickings to pad the bonus numbers.

    So to summarize.
    An elderly British couple were TRYING TO LEAVE THE UNITED STATES.
    Bill’s visa had expired, but instead of simply allowing him to peacefully leave, which was his intention all long, they arrested him and his wife, held them for 6 weeks and then deported them at the expense of the US government. The ICE agents got their bonus, and the government paid for their trip home.

    Complete and total corruption.

    1. And then you wonder why tourists don’t want to come here.

      The FIFA World Cup and Los Angeles Olympics will be a total failure.
      No one in their right mind would consider coming here from overseas.

    2. As usual Anonymous refuses to provide a source. Perhaps she thinks that providing Mother Jones as a source won’t be favorably accepted. Whats always missing is the rest of the story.

    3. “Suppose 20 millions of republican Americans thrown all of a sudden into France, what would be the condition of that kingdom?”

      “If it would be more turbulent, less happy, less strong, we may believe that the addition of half a million of foreigners to our present numbers would produce a similar effect here.”

      – Thomas Jefferson, 1785

  3. As if MAGA doesn’t threaten people. It is how it got corporations and colleges to change alignment. The tariffs are threats and extortion. We threaten sovereign governments we disagree with. We are threatening Anthropic to hand over AI for autonomous weapons. Trump tried to do enemies prosecutions and luckily failed. Neither party should have these abilities and neither party is clean.

    1. Just remember that Anonymous keeps bringing up that Trump was fined $500,000.
      New York appeals court in August 2025 threw out the roughly $500 million civil fraud penalty against Donald Trump and his companies, ruling that the initial fine was “excessive” and violated the Eighth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. While the finding of fraud remains in place, the monetary penalty was vacated, marking a significant legal victory for Trump.
      PBS.
      Anonymous twists everything in her mind so it comes out the way she wants it to.
      Anonymous once told us that she was being laid off because she works at Langley Air Force Base.
      How could this be when she comments on the forum several times an hour morning noon and night.
      Anonymous reality sprouted wings and flew away from a power line on Langley a very long time ago.
      The stories never line up. She be sooo smart.

    2. Anonymous, here’s a threat that you might consider. China looks for a small business that creates a successful product then makes a cheap knock off and sells it at below the cost of production which drives the original designer out of business. How is it Anonymous that you always take China’s side on trade? Curious minds want to know.
      Trump puts the screws to China and evert time you come riding to China’s defense. Curious indeed.
      There’s an old American saying that you won’t understand. We got your number sister.

  4. She is a limousine liberal. Lives in Desert Mountain in a $5 million plus mansion. What a hypocrite. They all are. When they say they are going after Trump supporters, I suppose that means anyone who criticized the Dems on social media or in comment zones like this one. Scary bunch of people.

  5. This is the new face of the “Democratic” party and Zohran Mamdani is the new poster boy of the party. If you want to know what to expect, he’s your example. He is not even qualified to be manager of a Taco Bell. He has 19 deaths on his hands, the homeless he let freeze to death instead of following existing policy to bring them off the streets.

    The New Democratic Party offers no viable solutions, only criticism. They appear to have no interest in the common welfare of Americans but rather a play for raw, unbridled power. They don’t truly care about the millions of illegal aliens they allowed into this country without vetting. They are simply pawns in their plans to dismantle and destroy western civilization.

    The people of New York are now Finding Out.

  6. Alexandria Occasional Cortex is a degenerate moron who has held no job of any substance, has accomplished nothing of value, and lies about where she grew up. She perfectly represents the Democratic Party and is its standard bearer.

  7. The MAGAs really need affirmation after the SCOTUS ruled against Trump, Trump went on a tirade against the Justices whom he appointed and who followed the Constitution and struck down his tariffs–he actually said that their families should be ashamed of them. Then, there’s the bad economic news–so Turley goes after Susan Rice. Of course, Turley doesn’t comment on the fact that, as most legal scholars said, the SCOTUS got it right, that Trump showed just how puerile and vindictive he is, and that tariffs are just one tool he uses to get people, including CEOs of big corporations and heads of other countries, to kiss up to him–something his vanity demands. It’s really and truly sad.

  8. I’m sorry…. HOW is that (Ms Rice’s revenge comments) ANY DIFFERENT than the last time she sat in the White House as staff??? HINT: There ISN’T any difference.

  9. SUSAN RICE AS A LIFE-LONG DO-NOTHING MARXIST

    Didn’t someone once say that the government that governs least governs best?
    What should a Marxist do, if not nothing?

    1. A productive member of society creates wealth, you know, the thing that communists incoherently claim a power to redistribute.

  10. I did not doubt they would do it.

    I did doubt they would be stupid enough to admit it.

    Have they all had brain transplants from lizards?

    At least it is plain to see what was behind the persecution of President Trump:

    Distilled, 200 Proof, Evil.

  11. .OT

    Still fuming over the tariff opinion. A tariff has functions taxes do not have. Tariffs are in the political arena and national security. There are economic enemies. The STUPIDEST opinion ever. 👇 Shocking coming from Gorsuch and Roberts.

    Susan Rice is a pitiful person. She lives her life in hate. Boo

  12. The Turley blog is full of demons who go to bat for a child rapist.
    Trump is the one who should be surrounded by angry villagers with torches and pitchforks.

    1. Even by this comment section’s low standards, there are an unusually high number of Chinese Communist Party paid trolls today. They only provide more proof of what today’s article is an example of: for the Left there is no such thing as truth, no such thing as beauty, no such thing as goodness. There is only power and the drive to attain it, by whatever means necessary, including lies, slander, and propaganda. They are the ones for whom it will “not end well” when they shuffle off this mortal coil and are judged by the Almighty.

      (Cue wailing and gnashing of teeth by those very same trolls. See below.)

      1. George can’t handle the truth.
        Nothing George types here has any credibility as long as he sides with a child rapist.

        1. You don’t have any credibility and you’re saying others don’t have any??? I guess it takes one to know one.

          1. To know that middle-aged men should not rape young girls should not require any credibility. It should be common knowledge.

  13. Turns out that Trump was right.
    There really was election fraud in Georgia.

    Elon Musk has been slapped with a reprimand by the Georgia State Election Board for sending out pre-filled absentee ballot applications. State law prohibits anyone, other than an authorized relative, from sending an absentee ballot application prefilled with the elector’s information.

  14. SUSAN RICE AS A LIFE-LONG DO-NOTHING MARXIST
    ____________________________________________________________

    “Susan Rice’s career has been almost entirely in public service, diplomacy, and policy, rather than in private-sector wealth creation or capitalist enterprise. Unlike the Founders, who generated, protected, or legally structured economic value as a foundation for civic authority, Rice’s work focuses on designing policy, managing government programs, and directing resources, effectively shaping how wealth is allocated rather than produced. In this sense, her influence resembles a form of modern “constitutions” of governance and redistribution—rules and structures that determine who controls resources—emphasizing bureaucratic and intellectual authority over the creation of tangible economic wealth that historically underpinned the nation.”

    1. A parasite on the life blood of Capitalism. I say that’s a declaration of war on Conservatives. Why wait President Trump, take them all out now.

      1. People who still support Trump even after all of the bad things he has ever done are the real mental cases.

        1. There are no perfect politicians and we have no leaders anymore. All the smart ones stay on the sidelines. So until the Dems give us a choice other than the leftist loons we see coming in 2028, us conservatives will simply keep choosing the best garbage can in the alley.

        2. Trump is our bodyguard. Bodyguards are not refined, nicey-nice people. They’re rough people but they get the job done. Because of the attacks on civilization coming from the left, we need him. What attacks? Here are dem priorities:

          Packing Scotus to install a majority of radical left-wing judges; disrupting peaceful worship services; helping child rapists, violent gang members, and murderers evade arrest; ensuring biological men invade women’s and girls’ competitive sports, showers, and locker rooms; promoting that fantasy that men can give birth, while renaming women “menstruating person” (gross); opening the borders to criminals and contagious diseases; suppressing domestic energy production; defunding the police; suppressing free speech through the Ministry of Truth and the rest of the government-social-media censorship complex; forcing people to inject an experimental mix of chemicals into their bodies against their will; committing crimes against humanity by masking children which has no health benefit at all and leads to anxiety and mental health issues; killing partially born babies and fully-born babies; supporting middle-east terrorist organizations while assaulting Jews trying to get to class; enabling and supporting child sexual mutilation under the guise of “gender affirming care”; promoting cultural Marxism and dividing everyone on the basis of skin color into oppressors and oppressed; promoting assassination chic culture; actually assassinating the people they disagree with; politicizing everything including sports, entertainment, and comedy so it becomes unwatchable by half of the public. I may add to the list tomorrow.
