US News: September, 2025 - ANTIFA, Charlie Kirk, and the Politics of Violence

September 24, 2025

Political Violence and ANTIFA: ANTIFA—who else is a violent participant in politics? To frame mentally ill mass shooters (note: revenge is a mental illness) is a totally different specter from assassins who target a person on purpose, to take them out for political or business (political) views. If we go down that road, and the hatred of the 50 some Democrats who opposed Charlie Kirk at the honoring on the floor are simply not worthy of politics. With the inability to debate but simply to demean, they fuel the ANTIFA sentiment of totality. Yes, Charlie Kirk was a Christian and he was the leader of Turning Point USA. To characterize him as a hater or Christian nationalist is nothing short of calling him a Nazi and racist , and misses the point that he obviously organized a great, non-violent following and offered everyone interested an open debate, in which he usually was well prepared. In war, it is an unwillingness or failure of diplomacy—call it negotiations or discussion—to answer with fire.

ANTIFA does not even care about discussion. It is war without notice. If they disagree, justifications are abundant. It is a diffuse and sometimes violent protest culture of far-left activists who want to stop the far right. The movement is associated with an aggressive form of protest its adherents call "direct action," which can sometimes cross the line into illegal or violent activity like breaking store windows or setting police cars on fire.

Soros and Political Funding: Soros, the ANTI-Fascist , celebrating fascism—what else does he donate money for? Fabricating a spider web of leftist activist judges, lawyers, politicians, and NGOs—all okay with crime and violence. The core of destabilizing a democracy to totalitarian, also called fascism. Politics should follow elections and constitutions. Like many other countries, elections should be in person, with exceptions where the voter demands the mail-in ballot, not the parties. It is a disturbing fact : A quarter of respondents who identified as "very liberal" said violence can sometimes be justified to achieve political goals, along with 17 percent of those who identified as "liberal," 9 percent of moderates, 6 percent of those who said they're "conservative" and 3 percent of those who identified as "very conservative." Here another read. Expect some of those in the military and politics—enough for a civil war? If you watch the likes of Cory Booker , Leticia James, Jasmine Crockett , or AOC , or even the "moderate"—every way to justify violence is good enough. So if you read strong Democrat , does it really mean a one-party state? Here another view. Perhaps our educational systems need to rethink teaching debate and conflict resolution, but a robust fight also teaches a lesson. Where would we go if we killed opponents on the sporting field, no matter how violent the sport? Perhaps Van Jones has some answers. Let's hope the answer to TP USA is not ANTIFA, but I guess you can spin every event politically. See Jan 6 versus summer of love. Just do not mention that Mr. Floyd could have simply cooperated with police.

Crime as a Political Tool: Crime is a political tool—respectively, the lawyers and judges. Siebert's perceived unwillingness to bring local charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James, one of Trump's top political nemeses, was the main reason for his ouster, according to multiple sources. Abbe Lowell might be a lawyer in his own class , but foremost a political pundit and defender of the swamp?

Violence against the law, with approval —so you can wear a mask if you are a criminal? Discussion about legal or illegal aside, law is the law. Senate Bill 627, a California measure targeting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), has passed the final Senate vote. Introduced by State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), the bill prohibits law enforcement from wearing masks while on duty. Critics have raised concerns about officer safety and public trust, while Republicans have argued that the law cannot be enforced against federal officers. California Assemblymember Liz Ortega (D) stated, "We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low-wage job."

The left has more sympathy for Jimmy Kimmel than Charlie Kirk. Just look at a bit of comparison. Current estimates by Nielsen indicate that Jimmy Kimmel Live! was attracting approximately 1.1 million viewers per episode during the late-summer/early-fall 2025 window.

Jimmy Kimmel's Values:

Jimmy Kimmel's values are deeply rooted in his Catholic upbringing and his commitment to integrity, respect, and values. He has been a vocal advocate for his beliefs, often sharing his faith and values with his audience. Kimmel's approach to humor and performance is influenced by the moral foundation and community provided by the Catholic church, which has shaped his work ethic, sense of discipline, and storytelling style. Despite some critiques of Catholic teachings, Kimmel acknowledges the impact of his Catholic upbringing on his life and career. His values are reflected in his charitable work and his efforts to promote positive change through his platform. (Wikipedia)

In plain English, bashing Trump and Republicans as values? But perhaps Wiki has a political agenda as well. On the mere basis, brothers in faith ?

Additional Perspectives on Charlie Kirk: Here are a couple more views on Charlie Kirk if you are interested: New York Times , WSJ , and perhaps the leftist version or two. And finally, an impressive "Laudatio" in a European newspaper, summing it up de facto (translate).

What many on the left are saying is de facto: he was like Hitler. And because he was like Hitler, the murder of him is not only justified, but a necessary act against fascism. And who is like Hitler is decided by people who already consider it fascist when someone is addressed with the wrong pronouns.

The most ironic thing about it is that they criticize Kirk for what they always ignore about Muslim immigrants. If these people were to really deal with the worldview of their Muslim protégés, they would know, however, that everything Kirk has ever said is a child's birthday compared to what the majority of Muslims think about trans, homosexuality and the like.

Kirk has exposed precisely these contradictions of the political left over and over again, and that is exactly why he will be so missed here. Because German conservatives prefer to participate in the left-wing charade rather than expose it. Because they are cowards where he was brave.
