Democrats Deny Kirk Prayer on House Floor

Posted on by

The New York Yankees had the class to honor Charlie Kirk. Let’s check in on Congress:

House Speaker Mike Johnson held a moment of silence in the House for Kirk. After the moment of silence, [Rep Lauren] Boebert [R-CO] asked for a verbal prayer. …

Boebert’s request was met with yells of opposition from Democrats, including from Rep. Jahana Hayes (D-CT), who yelled about school shootings… Other Democrats screamed “no.”

About three dozen Democrats in total objected to having a spoken prayer… “Pass some gun laws!” one yelled.

Democrats are almost as predictable as they are malevolent. After a conservative is killed, of course they will exploit the violence as a pretext to render future victims defenseless.

Speaker Johnson did his best to maintain order:

What do you expect of people who booed God at their convention?

Yankees Hold Moment of Silence for Charlie Kirk

Posted on by

Part of the appeal of the New York Yankees is that the team of Roy White, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, et al. has long been associated with class. Despite the moonbattification of professional sports that has caused many fans to turn away in disgust, this tradition survives:

This strikes quite a contrast with the level of class shown by the New York Mets, which flew the Pride Progress flag in place of Old Glory during the national anthem.

J.B. Pritzker Blames Trump for Kirk Assassination

Posted on by

The sneering arrogance of Democrats is a marvel to behold. Watch in astonishment as the obese plutocrat serving as Governor of Illinois blames Trump for a prominent supporter being assassinated — almost certainly by one (or more) of Pritzker’s fellow leftists:

Trump is “fomenting” violence by expressing viewpoints and pursuing policies that make liberals want to kill him. Having repeatedly failed at that, they now target his supporters.

Jabba should have been more specific. The issue isn’t that there has been a rise in political violence. There has been a rise in leftist violence.

Following many hundreds of left-wing Black Lives Matter riots, there was a single right-wing riot back in 2021, in protest of Democrat election shenanigans. As Pritzker demonstrates, liberals are still not letting it go. But January 6 is the exception that proves the rule.

Kirk Assassination: Coordinated Effort?

Posted on by

You can see why a lot of liberals would want Charlie Kirk dead. He was not only a prominent supporter of the president but an extremely eloquent and likable guy who appealed to youth. Some suspect that his assassination was a coordinated effort.

That he was shot right after a question about the epidemic of violence committed by transsexuals seems contrived, as if the shooter had been given a signal when to shoot.

An eyewitness reports:

Let’s hope for Trump’s sake and America’s that the Deep State is thoroughly purged of Democrat apparatchiks before the next attempt on his life. Leftism boils down to coercion, and coercion boils down to murder. This makes Democrats deadly.

And Another: Miguel Barrera-Corona

Posted on by

How many arrests does it take before even liberals figure out that a foreign criminal should not be allowed to run loose in our country? If anyone can find out, it will be Miguel Barrera-Corona:

Over the weekend ICE agents arrested illegal alien Miguel Barrera-Corona of Mexico, who had 49 past arrests, including convictions for assault with a deadly weapon, burglary, vehicle theft, criminal threats to terrorize, drunk driving, shoplifting, carrying a loaded firearm in public, carrying a concealed firearm in a vehicle, trespassing, property damage, vandalism, petty theft, and carrying a concealed dagger.

As Tricia McLaughlin of DHS notes,

“Sanctuary politicians allowed this serial criminal to terrorize American citizens.”

ICE nabbed him in San Diego. Local officials in the sanctuary state California tend not to be friendly toward federal immigration enforcement. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass even explicitly refuses to cooperate with ICE. Democrats don’t like it when people like Barrera-Corona get arrested.

MSNBC Denounces Charlie Kirk as “Divisive Figure”

Posted on by

Try not to blow a gasket as MSNBC dutifully recites a few platitudes before putting its stamp of approval on today’s assassination by characterizing Charlie Kirk as “a divisive figure”:

Like “polarizing,” “divisive” is a Liberalese synonym for “extremist.” It signifies disapproval and dislike.

Another: Orbin Dane Hernandez-Velazquez

Posted on by

Criminals who are in the country illegally benefit greatly from a revolving door justice system run by moonbats like Indira Talwani. Consider Orbin Dane Hernandez-Velazquez:

The Seattle Police Department’s Certification for Determination of Probable Cause states that Hernandez-Velazquez was booked into the King County Jail on August 8, 2025, accused of attempting to deliver fentanyl (2.5 grams), possessing with intent to deliver fentanyl (868.5 grams), methamphetamine (1,990.5 grams), and cocaine (20.8 grams), as well as unlawful possession of a firearm. … The probable-cause document further warns that a single kilogram of fentanyl has the potential to kill 500,000 people, per DEA data.

Local mainstream media refused to report on the story, which undermines the liberal narrative that illegal aliens are put-upon angels who work diligently at the Jobs Americans Won’t Do to provide for their families.

ICE provided a statement:

“Orbin Daneris Hernandez-Velazquez is an illegal alien from Mexico with an extensive criminal record including three convictions for drug trafficking, four illegal entries, and a recent arrest of unlawful possession of a firearm. He entered the country illegally for the FIFTH time at an unknown date and time.”

Open borders are convenient for criminals. If the law comes after you, head south. Then sneak north again with more drugs — and the implicit blessing of the liberal establishment, which will open the border as wide as under Biden if Democrats retake the White House.
