Figured this fit best here.
The violent chaos we’re seeing from today’s left didn’t appear out of nowhere. It’s not some spontaneous uprising, and it’s not new.
What you’re watching unfold today in Portland, and with the assassination attempts on President Trump and the assassination of Charlie Kirk, are tied directly to a violent cycle that began in the 1970s, when a wave of homegrown left-wing terrorists declared war on America… literally.
These radical progressives bombed government buildings, police stations, and even the Pentagon. But instead of being permanently cast out of society, many of these radicals quietly slithered into mainstream American life. They packed up their explosives and became professors, NGO board executives, journalists, and lawyers.
Everywhere you look these days, the so-called responsible adults… teachers, cops, and nurses… turn out to be undercover Marxists.
The mask is slipping, and the real face of today’s Democrat voter is on full display for everyone to see. Once upon a time, you could easily write off the extremists as a bunch of fringe activist kooks in black hoodies and combat boots.
Not anymore.
Today these foot soldiers are schoolteachers, nurses, and even cops… supposedly “respectable” people who now openly call for their fellow Americans to be imprisoned, tortured, and executed simply for holding a different political view.
Welcome to the Democrat Party of 2025… the most bloodthirsty, violent, and unhinged political movement on the planet.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk ripped the veil off what’s been brewing beneath the surface for years now. It’s fully clear that we’re not dealing with a political party that tolerates even the tiniest bit of disagreement. We’re dealing with a movement that thrives on bloodlust and punishment for dissent. And the latest example of this rot is a detention corporal in North Carolina who thought he was anonymous online, boasting of his allegiance to Antifa, fantasizing about war tribunals, and even bringing back the guillotine for anybody who supports Donald J. Trump.
Meet Corporal Brian D. Edwards. This out-of-shape, violent ghoul believed he could hide behind a screen name, posting his deranged threats and alliance with a terror organization without a single consequence. But the internet (and karma) caught up with him. And now the world knows that a sworn officer of the law… a man who is supposed to protect all Americans, regardless of who they voted for, is literally cheering for political executions.
What we’re seeing today has some very deep roots in the past.
Those 1970s left-wing radicals who once terrorized America have reinvented themselves and embedded themselves deep within our universities, media outlets, judicial system, and political institutions. They’re shaping generations of students with their radical, anti-American ideology.
They’re spreading that same violent, hateful, anti-American worldview that once targeted America from the outside. Now, that hate lives and grows inside elite US classrooms, where left-wing professors preach and teach division and resentment instead of civic duty, merit and unity.
Senator Eric Schmitt’s latest X thread lays all of this out in stark historical detail. He exposes how 1970s radical lefties never disappeared. They actually reinvented themselves and climbed into positions of real power and influence and are now using their roles to grow a new generation of activists who see violence and destruction as legitimate tools for “justice” and to protect their precious democracy.
And the real kicker here is that at the center of this radical plot is a name every American knows: Barack Obama.
The 44th president’s early political career was actually launched in the living room of Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, two of the most notorious left-wing domestic terrorists of the 20th century. That connection isn’t some random conspiracy theory… It’s real, and it’s a reminder of how deeply the old-timey radical left has woven itself into America’s political fabric.
As Senator Schmitt points out, what happened in the 1970s is a blueprint for the left-wing terrorism we see today… from the violent campus mobs to the lawless protests that tear through our cities, attack federal agents, and murder political enemies.
