More ‘antifa’ Stupidity

The Donny group of sycophants are pulling no stops to crack down on dissent….even to go as far as lying about those that are dissenting.

The whole silliness is getting beyond moronic.

AG Blondi has stepped up and shown her ignorance….

Attorney General Pam Bondi has instructed federal law enforcement agencies to investigate ‘antifa groups’ for tax crimes, according to a memo reviewed by news outlets including the Guardian and Reuters. The AG tasks the agencies with increasing investigations into antifa (short for antifascist or antifascism) and other so-called “extremist groups,” and compiling a list of entities possibly engaged in “domestic terrorism.” She also instructs the agencies specifically to look into tax crimes the groups may have committed by defrauding the Internal Revenue Service. The move comes months after President Trump designated antifa, a decentralized movement with no leader, a terrorist organization.

Per journalist Ken Klippenstein, Bondi specifically wants the agencies to target groups that express “opposition to law and immigration enforcement; extreme views in favor of mass migration and open borders; adherence to radical gender ideology, anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, or anti-Christianity”—and she’s asking the FBI to push harder for Americans to call into its tipline with such info, and to develop a reward system for tips that lead to the leaders of these groups being identified and arrested. The agencies are instructed to go back five years in their probe. The news outlets note the move also appears to be aimed at stripping certain leftwing groups of their tax-exempt status.

“Bondi’s memo could be the starting point for charges against a number of left-leaning advocacy groups and nonprofits the Trump administration has accused without evidence of having ties to extremists,” writes Rebecca Beitsch at the Hill.

How long will these people keep flogging that non-existent horse?

Finally someone has these twats on official record as not knowing what they are chasing….

A top FBI official struggled on Thursday to answer basic questions about antifa, a loosely organized collective of anti-fascist activists that he labeled the top terrorist threat facing the US.

Michael Glasheen, operations director of the FBI’s National Security Branch, testified before the US House Committee on Homeland Security that antifa was “the most immediate violent threat” facing Americans today when it comes to domestic terrorism.

But when Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), ranking member of the Homeland Security Committee, asked Glasheen for specifics about this purportedly dire threat, he mostly came up empty.

“So where is antifa headquarters?” Thompson asked him.

Glasheen paused for several seconds and then said, “What we’re doing right now with the organization…” before Thompson interrupted him.

“Where in the United States does antifa exist?” asked Thompson.

“We are building out the infrastructure right now,” Glasheen replied.

“So what does that mean?” asked a bewildered Thompson. “I’m just, we’re trying to get information. You said antifa is a terrorist organization. Tell us, as a committee, how did you come to that? Whether they exist, how many members do they have in the United States as of right now?”

“Well, that’s very fluid,” Glasheen said. “It’s ongoing for us to understand that… no different from al-Qaeda and ISIS.”

Thompson again interrupted and tried to make Glasheen answer his original question.

“If you said antifa is the No. 1 domestic terrorist organization operating in the United States,” he said, “I just need to know where they are, how many people. I don’t want a name, I don’t want anything like that. Just, how many people have you identified, with the FBI, that antifa is made of?”

“Well, the investigations are active…” Glasheen said.

Thompson then became incredulous.

“Sir, you wouldn’t come to this committee and say something you can’t prove,” he said. “I know you wouldn’t do that. But you did.”

Many observers were stunned that Glasheen appeared to know so little about what he proclaimed to be the top domestic terrorist threat facing the US.

“Total amateur hour in US law enforcement,” remarked Democracy Docket news editor Matthew Kupfer, “where the No. 1 terror threat is an organization that does not formally exist and a career FBI official is dancing around before a congressional committee trying to make the Trump strategy sound legit.”

Zeteo editor-in-chief Mehdi Hasan argued that Glasheen’s testimony was proof that the administration was simply concocting domestic terrorism threats with zero basis in reality.

“Wow,” Hasan marveled. “Just a complete admission here that the entire ‘antifa’ threat narrative is totally manufactured by this administration.”

Fred Wellman, a Democratic congressional candidate in Missouri, wondered how many actual dangerous criminals are running free while the FBI focuses on taking down an organization that it apparently knows nothing about.

“This would be comical if there wasn’t real world impact from this idiocy,” Wellman wrote. “We have real crimes and real threats and they are chasing a fake ‘organization’ for politics.”

Democrats on the House Homeland Security Committee also piled on Glasheen, citing his testimony as evidence that the Trump administration is completely unserious about law enforcement.

“If your ‘top threat’ has no headquarters, no organization, and no definition then it’s not a top threat,” they posted on social media. “The Trump administration is ignoring real threats, and the American people see right through it.”

Now we know that these people no idea what ‘antifa’ is and are just using it to get more power to control our lives.

One more point while they desperately search for a hook on ‘antifa’ white groups are getting a free ride….why is that?

America has never hesitated to name its enemies when those enemies live far away. Foreign threats receive labels, funding packages, primetime addresses, and decades of political rhetoric. But when the danger emerges from within—when the faces of terrorism mirror the nation’s dominant racial group—suddenly the White House becomes quiet. Historically quiet. Deafeningly quiet.

That silence is not accidental; it is the byproduct of centuries of social, political, and racial conditioning that shield white extremists from accountability even as they remain the most violent domestic threat in American history.

This is not hyperbole. White domestic terrorists—whether marching under Confederate flags, camouflaged in “Don’t Tread on Me” patriotism, or hiding behind masks in U-Haul convoys—have committed more politically motivated killings on U.S. soil than any other group since the country’s founding.

Yet the response from the highest levels of government is consistently muted. When these groups appear in public, armed and organized, they are often reduced to “protesters,” “heritage defenders,” or “militias.” Their actions are softened. Their ideology is excused. Their violence is sanitized.

Who’s Next?

There has been lots of discussion about Donny and his possible pursuit of an illegal third term…..but let’s look past this debate and look at what we can expect if he decides to step aside and give JD a chance to  rule the roost.

I know many people want to see Donny gone….one way of the other…..but what would be better….JD or A third Donny?

How old does JD Vance think is too old to use the n-word? How about saying “I love Hitler” or making jokes about gassing your political enemies?

These are absurd questions to be asking of a vice president, but they keep coming up because he keeps brushing off revelations that young Republicans have used racial slurs and other hate speech by insisting they’re just kids. When Marko Elez, a 25-year-old DOGE staffer, was terminated earlier this year over racist, pro-eugenics tweets, Vance insisted that such revelations should not “ruin a kid’s life.” On Wednesday, when Politico published the contents of a group chat containing several young GOP leaders, Vance came to their defense in a similar fashion.

This wasn’t a college group chat. Its members were leaders in the Young Republican National Federation, which includes members up to the age of 40. William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used variations of the n-word. Peter Giunta, who was chief of staff for a New York assemblyman until he was fired on Tuesday, joked about murdering his opponents. Hendrix is 25. Giunta is 31. Vance, for what it’s worth, is 41. Before being tapped as Donald Trump’s running mate last year, he was also known to hang out in group chats with other young Republicans, some younger even than Hendrix. Is 41 too old to face consequences for your actions?

Vance’s repeated insistence that young adults should never be held accountable for using racial slurs is notable in and of itself. But his larger refusal to condemn depraved allies or even to distance himself from them is part of a larger trend. Most political norms—and the laws of political gravity that helped keep them in place—are long gone, replaced by an intense tribal loyalty that turns any scandal into an opportunity for whataboutism. This, it seems, is an early preview of Trump’s lasting political legacy: Republicans are no longer apologizing, nor are they pushing out racist, bigoted allies when they inevitably find themselves embroiled in controversy.

If the nation has the misfortune of electing JD things would not be too much different than today.

JD is a creep, a liar and a racist bastard….not too far from his Number One….

Repubs have a different person in mind….

A new YouGov survey shows that a large number of young Americans are getting behind Donald Trump Jr. as the dark-horse Republican candidate for the 2028 presidential election.

The poll revealed Trump Jr. has strong support in the 18-to-29 and 30-to-44-year-old demographic ranges.

More than a quarter of Republicans and right-leaning independents under 30 pegged Don Jr. as their “ideal” choice to lead the GOP ticket in 2028. It’s a 10-point increase from April.

What’s more, 53 percent of voters aged 18 to 29 and 55 percent aged 30 to 44 said they would consider voting for Don Jr. in the next Republican presidential primary.

Any thoughts on this possibility?
