Back in January, BlazeTV’s Sara Gonzales released a bombshell report on an investigation into H-1B scams in Texas.

On Tuesday, Gonzales released another video of her investigation into an alleged H-1B farm posing as a day care and autism center — despite appearing to be non-operational when she visited.

‘If you are not leave, I will call the police!’

And her investigation took some unexpected turns after she stumbled upon a whistleblower who was able to blow the lid off the whole operation and confronted the owner outside the buildings.

Gonzales started the video outside Allen Infant Care Center, which used to be called Golden Acorn Academy, according to her investigation. The day cares, Gonzales explained, are owned by a holdings company called Golden Qi Holdings LLC, which is also allegedly affiliated with DFW ABA Center, reportedly an autism behavioral therapy center.

She showed that the complex was almost entirely empty and, notably, apparently devoid of children. The playground appeared to require maintenance and to be overtaken with tall grass and weeds.

Gonzales alleged that, on top of having an associated day care and autism center, they have sponsored “37 H-1Bs” and “they have filled out 55 Labor Condition Applications,” citing USCIS data.

“The thing that is so curious about this [case] when you go digging in the data and the LCAs is that you wouldn’t think that a day care center would need, you know, ‘market research analysts’ or ‘supply chain analysts,'” Gonzales remarked.

“And yet, this company actually told the United States government that they needed foreign workers to fill those jobs,” she further alleged.

While this investigation may have looked like it would take a normal course at the outset, Gonzales ran into a whistleblower at the premises who claimed to be familiar with the operation and who explained “just how bad this one gets.”

The whistleblower alleged that the H-1B visa workers do not work on-site and that the immigration enforcement officials “know all about his H-1B visas,” claiming that the owner has been investigated three or four times in the last three years.

She also alleged that the owner sells visas and then underpays the holders of those visas when they get to the United States. She described the company as a “foothold” in an immigration scheme.

Gonzales also confronted a man who appeared to be the owner of the companies she was investigating.

The man spoke with her in broken English, attempting to get her to simply talk to his lawyers on the phone instead. However, Gonzales kept pushing him to explain his alleged “pay-to-play” visa operation.

After some questioning, the man retreated to what Gonzales described as a “metallic rose gold BMW” with butterfly doors.

“Hey, is your dad a member of the CCP?” Gonzales asked as he slammed the door of his car.

The man drove down the road, turned around, then yelled out the window of his BMW, “If you are not leave, I will call the police!”

“I’ll call the police on you for scamming my system!” Gonzales shouted after him as he sped away.

After the investigation on-site, Gonzales said that she and her team still have a lot of questions and will be referring their findings to USCIS and the Department of Labor.

Former FBI Director James Comey has once again been indicted by the Department of Justice, this time for an infamous social media post that appeared to threaten President Donald Trump.

Comey posted a photo to his Instagram last May showing seashells on a beach writing the numbers “8647,” with the now-deleted post captioned, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.” The phrase “86” in slang commonly refers to getting rid of something, and the number “47” is assumed to be a reference to Trump, who is the 47th president of the United States.

‘This indictment comes just days after a crazed gunman attempted to assassinate Trump.’

The basis of this second indictment is that the post could be considered a threat to kill Trump, a threat that Comey has repeatedly denied.

“It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down,” Comey said after deleting the post.

This indictment comes just days after a crazed gunman attempted to assassinate Trump, rushing through a security checkpoint in the lobby of the Washington Hilton, where the president, several Cabinet members, and hundreds of attendees were seated at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. The suspect, later identified as 31-year-old Cole Allen, allegedly opened fire and struck a Secret Serviceman wearing a bulletproof vest before being quickly subdued and apprehended.

A manifesto was later made public detailing Allen’s alleged political motivations to kill Trump and members of his Cabinet. In light of the third serious assassination attempt against Trump, the DOJ has indicted Comey for the second time.

Comey was first indicted in September for making false statements to Congress and for obstruction of a congressional proceeding. The indictment was later dismissed and is no longer active.

A gang of youths ages 11 to 14 were caught on cellphone video last week mercilessly pummeling a lone victim on a street corner in Towson, Maryland.

Nine juveniles have been identified, and second-degree assault charges are pending against five of them after Baltimore County police officers responded to the incident, WBFF-TV reported.

‘You can see the kids are laughing. … They just don’t care, because no one is going to hold them accountable.’

Police said officers were called around 3:40 p.m. April 20 to the unit block of Lambourne Road for a “physical disturbance,” the station reported.

Police said it’s believed the incident stems from a verbal altercation in school and that the juveniles involved — who range in age from 11 to 14 — know each other, WBFF said.

Two juveniles under the age of 13 will not be charged, police told the station, which added that none of the juveniles are in custody as officers are trying to notify their parents.

The incident drew attention after video recorded outside the Towson Promenade appeared to show a group of juveniles surrounding and beating one victim. You can view unredacted video of the broad-daylight beatdown here, which shows a gang of youths repeatedly punching, kicking, and stomping the victim.

More from WBFF:

A second incident happened Tuesday involving some of the same students inside Dumbarton Middle School during a meeting with the School Resource Officer, police said. During the meeting, a student and their parent left the office and got involved in a physical fight with another student in a hallway. The parent was later trespassed from the school, authorities said.

Police are working with Baltimore County Public Schools, which is conducting its own administrative investigation.

The April 20 incident occurred across the street from Towson Diner, and owner Nick Kourtsounis told WBFF in a separate story he’s frustrated by what he sees as ongoing juvenile violence in the area.

“This looks like nine on one, is what it looks like,” Kourtsounis told the station while viewing video presumably showing the attack. “I don’t see how that’s just middle schoolers being middle schoolers. That is a learned behavior, and I don’t know how you unlearn that, but something has to be done.”

He added to WBFF, “Where’s the accountability? That’s what we want. We want accountability, we want action, and this stuff about, ‘Oh, it’s just kids being kids’ — no, it’s not.”

Baltimore County resident Mary Shanahan told the station, “I’m very fearful for my life because you never know what they have in their backpacks, what they have in their pockets, what they’re going to say to you.”

A retired Baltimore County Police sergeant told WBFF in another story that the youths involved simply don’t care about consequences.

“You can see the kids are laughing. They’re looking at the camera, they’re looking around, but they’re committing the crime,” Mickey Hoppert, who retired from the Baltimore County Police Department after 20 years of service as an officer, told the station. “They just don’t care, because no one is going to hold them accountable. And unfortunately, somebody has to hold them accountable.”

Yet another disgruntled leftist allegedly resorted to violence over the weekend when he set his sights on President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

It was the third attempt on Trump’s life since his 2024 campaign.

And considering the right has been warning about the left’s obsession with political violence since before the first Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, BlazeTV host John Doyle isn’t surprised.

“Another day, another assassination attempt against President Trump, against conservatives,” Doyle says.

“I don’t like repeating myself. The problem with that is, now we are fresh out of things to say because we covered this during the first Trump assassination attempt, the other 15,000 Trump assassination attempts, the Charlie Kirk assassination, the violence throughout the first Trump administration,” he explains.

And the problem, Doyle warns, is only going to grow.

“If we don’t do something about it, like, yesterday, we’re going to be in a pretty bad position,” he says, especially considering that the left’s path to radicalization is mainstream.

“These people get radicalized by normal media consumption. When right-wing people get radicalized, what does it lead them to do? Get married younger … spending more time in the gym, putting themselves out there, introducing themselves to people in their community. … That is what right-wing radicalization looks like,” he explains.

“And you have to go through several rabbit holes to get there. Left-wing radicalization is just spending too much time watching what is put in front of you, and then you declare war on normal white America in the most disgusting and vile and evil iteration possible every single time,” he continues.

And their war against “normal white America” won’t stop until it no longer exists.

“These people will not stop until we are absent from society. Now, I don’t know what that’s going to look like. I don’t know if that means we all get cut off from our libtard friends, our libtard family members,” Doyle says.

“The thing is, though, as these people feel more and more that they are being backed into a corner, they only get more violent,” he explains.

“And despite the fact that people assure me all the time on the internet that Donald Trump is not doing anything for us, well, I guess these people aren’t quite getting the memo, are they?” he asks. “Because they are only talking about killing us more, they are only killing us more, they are only trying to kill us more.”

Would you ever spend so much on a house that you had no money left to furnish it?

It sounds absurd to me, as I imagine it does to you. But apparently, it’s fairly common these days. I don’t personally know anyone like this, but I do know enough people who are house poor that the extreme version seems at least plausible.

Financial overextension is, in one sense, a numbers problem. But it’s also something deeper.

Especially since we don’t see inside most homes. We drive by a place with six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and a five-car garage and assume wealth. We assume comfort. We assume it’s all filled in.

Chairs optional

That assumption is increasingly outdated. A big house doesn’t necessarily mean someone can afford it. It just means they’re willing — or able — to make the monthly payment. Everything else is optional.

That’s not entirely new. Mortgages have been around forever. But the willingness to stretch to the absolute limit — and beyond — does feel more common now than it used to.

You could point to low interest rates or lending practices. That’s part of the story. But I’m less interested in the financial mechanics than the cultural impulse behind it. Why do people feel the need to live this way?

Here comes the neighborhood

The obvious answer is keeping up with the Joneses. But even that has changed. It used to mean keeping pace with your neighbors, the people down the street. And even then, there was only so much of their lives you could see. There were natural limits.

Social media has erased those limits; now we all share one big neighborhood, in which everyone is empowered and encouraged to exaggerate their affluence. And that makes it much harder to remember what normal actually looks like.

Realism isn’t what’s rewarded on Instagram, TikTok, or X. Performative realism, maybe. But not the real thing. Spend enough time scrolling and you start to believe that everyone has the renovated kitchen, the extra cars, the perfect bathrooms. You start to feel like you’re behind.

So people stretch. They buy the house. They take on the payment. They tell themselves they’ll figure out the rest later. And in doing so, they become the next set of Joneses for someone else to chase.

Empty rooms, empty souls

Once you’re on that treadmill, it’s hard to get off. You work more to afford more. You feel stressed because you’re always one setback away from trouble. You justify new purchases because you’ve “earned” them. And any attempt to scale back feels like failure — like slipping backward.

Keep that up long enough and you can end up in a strange place: the proud owner of a house you can’t really afford, with rooms you can’t afford to fill.

But from the outside, it looks great.

At bottom, this is materialism run wild — an inversion of priorities. Things elevated beyond their proper place. Consumption standing in for meaning. And it’s widespread enough that it’s hard to single anyone out for it.

There’s no simple fix at a societal level. But on a personal level, the starting point is obvious: Take an honest look at what you’re spending, why you’re spending it, and whether it’s actually making your life better — or just making it look better.

That’s not new wisdom. Most of our grandparents understood it.

Financial overextension is, in one sense, a numbers problem. But it’s also something deeper. A sign that our values are out of order. That we’ve lost track of what actually matters.

The empty, oversized house is a fitting image for the culture that produces it.

Big and impressive on the surface. Empty inside.

“We’re here, we’re queer, get used to it!”

That’s what I was shouting in 1990 at some demonstration or another. I didn’t expect that by the 2010s, normal, straight America not only would have gotten used to it but would have adopted “queerness” right into their hearts and homes.

To be a young homosexual was to be indoctrinated into a myth of victimhood. All normal straight people want you beaten up or imprisoned, I was told.

In 2026, heterosexuals have taken on the sexual practices and signaling that used to be the exclusive province of gay men. Frequent casual sex (and bragging about it) and trawling apps for “hookups” are now common practices for many young straight people.

Everything is gay

Modern media reflects it. It used to be that you had to hunt for “art movies” if you wanted to see beefcake-on-beefcake action. Now you can’t turn on a sitcom, a drama, or a crime procedural without a gay sex scene or a monologue from a tedious young actress about how she’s not actually a girl.

What “normal” people today will do, including chemically and surgically mutilating their own children to “change their sex,” outstrips even the obscenity of all-night male clubs in New York City in the 1970s. For more than 10 years, young women — girls, really — have been parading down the street dressed and made up like drag-queen prostitutes. Young men boast about their “gooning” sessions (a reference to self-service alone at a computer) with no embarrassment.

America, take in the gayification of everything, everywhere, all the time.

Depravity on parade

The libertinism and sexual narcissism that the heterosexual world indulges in today is something we never used to see outside of the gay ghettos of major cities. And it happened remarkably quickly.

Where did this come from? Why did it happen?

I can tell you where it came from: gay men (and “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” but I repeat myself). As a 51-year-old celibate-by-choice homosexual who has gone conservative, it’s remarkable to watch conventional society adopt the destructive depravity that I now thank God I escaped.

I have seen things that can’t be described in these pages. And now I don’t have to describe them, because activities formerly relegated to dank basement clubs now parade down Main Street USA.

And I do mean parade. Have you been to a major city in June? What used to be called the “gay Pride parade” has been stretched from a few hours once a year into something called “Pride Month.”

And what originally began as modest call for dignity, privacy, and equal treatment has become a public flaunting of behaviors and subcultures that were once understood — even within the gay community — to belong behind closed doors.

Pride goeth …

Now nothing is off-limits. Even the most disturbing fetishes are displayed in broad daylight, right there on the street you walk down with your kids. Why are parents bringing their kids to these bacchanals?

Pride, in its older sense, is the root of all sin — the elevation of the self beyond its proper bounds until it becomes its own authority. What is striking about modern Pride is how often it takes precisely that form: not “leave us alone,” but “see us, affirm us, celebrate us.”

As a naive 16-year-old from a troubled home, I got into gay rights activism way too early. Like the majority of kids from abusive homes, I went down a path of early alcoholism and promiscuous sex, supplied by gay adults who sit on the sidelines like buzzards waiting for roadkill.

My teen years came at the end of the AIDS crisis. That was a crisis brought on by gay men themselves, although I was too young to see it then. It was more satisfying to rail at President Reagan for not doing enough to save the “gay community” from its own debauchery than it was to put the blame where it belonged.

The trap of ‘acceptance’

To be a young homosexual was to be indoctrinated into a myth of victimhood. All normal straight people want you beaten up or imprisoned, I was told. Gay men “had to” meet each other in brambles and bushes for their assignations because society had “driven us into the shadows.” Gay men were dying of AIDS because the government wouldn’t do enough medical research, not because we were having anonymous, dangerous sex.

None of it was true. Gay men didn’t meet up for sex in park bushes because they couldn’t rent motel rooms, or they didn’t have apartments, or because society “drove us” to. They did it, and still do it, because gay men are inclined to dangerous sex, risk, and public promiscuity.

Having lived the “fabulous” gay lifestyle, I know it for the trap it is. Under the guise of “caring,” adults seduce vulnerable young people — often victims of abuse — into their world of narcissistic sexual self-indulgence and libertinism. Those young people grow up and repeat the cycle — ushering a new generation into this living death.

Widespread public acceptance keeps the cycle going and allows it to expand. Our society used to understand this instinctively and kept such behavior on the margins. But today it is the voice of decorum and restraint that speaks in lowered tones, as if it is the one violating a taboo.

Well, perhaps it’s time for America’s non-“queer” majority to have a liberation movement of its own. To leave the shadows, point to the boundary our country has always maintained between what is publicly acceptable (and encouraged) and what isn’t, and unapologetically proclaim: It’s here. It’s clear. Get used to it.

Kirk Bangstad, the owner of Minocqua Brewing Company in Wisconsin and the treasurer of a federal super PAC of the same name, is among the American leftists who apparently savor news of violence against conservatives and other Americans with opposing political views.

Bangstad rushed, for instance, to state, “F**k Charlie Kirk,” immediately after the Turning Point USA founder’s assassination at Utah Valley University, then wrote weeks later, “May his soul never find peace.”

Beyond relishing in Kirk’s demise, Bangstad — a twice–failed Democratic political candidate who was ordered to pay a six-figure sum for defamation in 2023 and was charged with harassment last year — vowed in an alarming message posted in January to give fellow travelers “free beer, all day long, the day he dies.”

Though the post did not mention President Donald Trump by name, Bangstad’s remarks to reporters and subsequent posts made clear he was referring to Trump, whom he unsuccessfully attempted to block from the 2024 presidential ballot in Wisconsin.

In the post — made after Bangstad circulated a wanted poster for a federal agent, called for “regime change” in the U.S., and stated that “it’s just a matter of time” before “every ICE agent will face justice” — the brewer insinuated Trump’s death was imminent, writing, “Show us this post when it happens in a few months and we’ll make good on that promise.”

While Wisconsin Democrats were virtually silent about Bangstad’s extremist content earlier this year — content that the U.S. Secret Service previously told Blaze News was on the agency’s radar — they piped up after the brewer wrote the following last weekend after yet another attempt on Trump’s life, this time at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner:

Well, we almost got #freebeerday. Either a brother or sister in the Resistance needs to work on their marksmanship or he faked another assassination to get a a [sic] positive news cycle. We’ll never know. Regardless, we stand at the ready to pour free beer the day it happens.

A spokesman for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel — whose female reporter Bangstad has tasked his followers with hounding — that the radical brewer’s “rhetoric is completely unacceptable and should be retracted immediately.”

“We’re not afraid to call out this sort of inappropriate behavior no matter where it comes from — our GOP colleagues should learn to do the same,” said state Democratic Party spokesman Phil Shulman.

“I denounce those who had any reaction to last night’s shooting other than outrage at the state of political violence in our country,” said former Wisconsin Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, who is presently running as a Democrat for governor. “It’s completely unacceptable, and I am thankful for the actions of law enforcement who acted swiftly and bravely to keep everyone safe.”

A campaign spokeswoman for Democratic state Rep. Francesca Hong, who is also running for governor, told the Journal Sentinel that Bangstad’s post “is intentionally inflammatory and a symptom of the normalization of political violence.”

Missy Hughes, another Democratic candidate in the Wisconsin gubernatorial race, stated, “Such vile rhetoric is completely unacceptable and must be universally condemned.”

Even a former underling has turned against the brewer.

Rebecca Cooke, a Democrat running in Wisconsin for the U.S. Congress who worked for Bangstad during his failed 2016 congressional campaign, said, “This rhetoric is dangerous and unacceptable — showcasing just how broken our political system is.”

The criticism by fellow travelers appears to have broken Bangstad’s thin skin.

The brewer, who has apparently been selling voodoo dolls bearing the faces of Trump administration officials and “I wish it was free beer day” T-shirts, wrote on Facebook, “Leave it to the Corporate Dems and politically naive Democratic gubernatorial candidates to take the bait and condemn ‘political violence’ or ‘politically violent rhetoric’ after the 3rd questionably/arguable fake assassination attempt against Trump.”

“Aggression and accusation is the MO of Trump and MAGA,” Bangstad wrote. “Flat-footed answers and retreat is unfortunately the MO of Corporate Dems and the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. Time to flip the scrip [sic] and for Democratic leaders and journalists to force Trump and his regime to prove they’re not lying before covering a story about political violence and yet another ‘would-be assassination attempt.'”

After claiming that his assertion that leftists need to “work on their marksmanship” was “hyperbole,” Bangstad wrote in a post on Tuesday, “The day ‘he’ dies will do a LOT to end that suffering. Sure, JD Vance will bring with him a more intelligent treachery to the world stage if Trump passes — but when the symbol of American weakness, ignorance, and bigotry finally breathes his last breath — the entire world will be able to breathe a little easier.”

The controversial Trump-backed Gold Card visa program not only claimed to offer immigrants “residency in record time,” but promised up to $1 trillion toward reducing national debt.

However, during a heated congressional hearing, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has revealed that only one applicant has been approved so far.

“The process was recently resolved with DHS who runs the program, and they do a $15,000, the most serious vetting and analysis of any potential applicant in the history of the government. Usually it was $600. These pay $15,000 for an extraordinary vet,” Lutnick explained.

“So they have approved recently one person, and there are hundreds in the queue that are going through the process, but this is a new program, and they’ve just set it up, and they wanted to make sure they did it perfectly, and so we’ve worked through that,” he added.

“Sounds pretty rigorous if only one person has been OK’d for this,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray comments, shocked.

“I mean, no matter what you think of the program, that’s a failure, right?” he continues. “And I think the program would have been pretty good if we could have raised a trillion dollars.”

“Maybe it’s because DHS was closed and couldn’t do anything,” Jeff Fisher chimes in, adding, “But again, I’m OK with no one coming in.”

Tesla is banking on travelers wanting to hang out with themselves rather than an Uber driver.

The company announced that its Texas production facility, known as Gigafactory Texas, is ready to start preparing for a world without drivers.

‘A personalized driverless experience.’

Elon Musk’s company is diving further into the autonomous auto sector by not only ramping up its production of driverless vehicles, but by pairing specific vehicles with its taxi app that will compete with existing services like Waymo and GM’s Cruise.

“Purpose-built for autonomy,” Tesla wrote on X, promoting its new line called Cybercab. The vehicles are a new production of a battery-electric Tesla with neither steering wheels nor pedals available inside the car.

It was first shown off in 2024 and boasted futuristic wireless charging capabilities, with a rumored target range of 200 miles per charge.

RELATED: 5 cars from the 2026 New York International Auto Show you might actually want to buy

Cybercab will be combined with Tesla’s existing Robotaxi app — launched in 2025 — to create “a personalized driverless experience.”

Currently, the rides are offered on Tesla Model Y cars, but Tesla expects its new autonomous rides to target customers who grow tired of their human experiences. In this sense, Tesla notes how their rides differ from some of the most annoying parts of riding in someone else’s car.

Heating and cooling settings are saved in the passenger’s profile in the app, which means vehicles will automatically adjust to their settings across different rides. Other features target the aggravation of having to hear another person’s music selection, as the Robotaxi allows riders to stream their own.

There are some limitations though. For example, children under 8 years old, which of course includes infants, are not permitted to ride in the taxis. Guests between 8 and 17 years old are permitted in the cars, but minors cannot ride in the vehicle alone, per Robotaxi Rider Rules.

Riders must also adhere to applicable laws regarding small children, meaning a child safety seat may be required (provided by the customer) to bring them along.

Pets are also not permitted unless they are service animals.

Only three passengers at a combined weight of 800 pounds may ride in the vehicle at one time, and no one can sit in the front seat, Tesla says.

Smoking, vaping, and alcohol consumption are also not allowed.

The company also lists strict rules about recording or collecting any data from inside the vehicle.

“Instruments or equipment intended to record, measure, reverse engineer, collect information about, or conduct surveillance of any feature, equipment, component, or area of our Robotaxi are strictly prohibited.”

The service is currently only available to residents in Austin, Dallas, and Houston, Texas.

This isn’t the first time someone tried to assassinate President Trump. In the seven months since Charlie Kirk was gunned down, the violent rhetoric from the left has only gotten worse.

I resigned from the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office after Kirk’s murder in order to warn the public about the violent consequences of the inflammatory rhetoric promoted by Democrats and amplified by the media.

Before almost every prior assassination attempt, that same toxic rhetoric was deployed. After almost every attempt, Democrat leaders and media figures issued predictable calls for calm and unity. Yet shortly thereafter, the rhetoric resumed, and another attempt followed. One of them succeeded.

The pattern has become so predictable that wild conspiracy theories about ‘false flag’ operations are now proliferating.

The public has largely forgotten the earliest attempts on Trump’s life. On June 18, 2016, Michael Steven Sandford tried to grab a police officer’s pistol during a Trump speech at the Treasure Island Hotel and Casino in order to shoot him. On September 6, 2017, Gregory Lee Leingang stole a forklift from an oil refinery and tried to ram Trump’s motorcade.

In both cases, the attempts were preceded by heated rhetoric. Former Democrat presidential candidate and Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley labeled Trump a “fascist demagogue.” After the Charlottesville incident, allegedly partially funded by the SPLC, MSNBC commentator Nicolle Wallace stated that Trump was giving “safe harbor to Nazis” and “white supremacists.”

These early failures did not deter the pattern. The rhetoric continued, and more attempts followed.

In July 2019, New Jersey Democrat Senator Cory Booker stated that Trump was “worse than a racist” and compared Trump to noted segregationist Democrat George Wallace.

On September 1, 2022, in his Philadelphia “Soul of the Nation” speech, Joe Biden declared that “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.” Biden campaign spokesperson Ammar Moussa stated that Trump “channeled his role models as he parroted Adolf Hitler.”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) consistently paints Trump as a fascist and a threat to democracy. In November 2023, Washington Post columnist Robert Kagan wrote that “a Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable.” “With each passing day, it will become harder and more dangerous to stop it by any means, legal or illegal.”

After this unrelenting barrage, with Trump and conservatives being branded as racists, fascists, and existential threats to democracy, Thomas Matthew Crooks fired shots at Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, 2024. The shooting grazed Trump’s ear and killed firefighter Corey Comperatore.

Democrats responded with familiar calls to lower the temperature and some easy condemnations of political violence, but actions speak louder than words.

A New Jersey columnist continued to label Trump a “fascist threat to democracy” only eight days after the assassination attempt.

On September 15, 2024, Ryan Wesley Routh was arrested while hiding in the bushes with a rifle near the course where Trump was golfing.

The rhetoric only intensified.

On October 23, 2024, Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris agreed that Trump is a fascist, and she repeated the widely discredited statements of John Kelly that Trump praised Hitler. Media outlets continued to praise and encourage the dangerous and biased labels.

The labeling of Trump and conservatives as Hitler and Nazis and the comparison of ICE to the Gestapo are numerous and easy to find.

On September 10, 2025, Charlie Kirk was assassinated while speaking at Utah Valley University. Once again came the public statements condemning political violence and calling for unity. But the rhetoric did not subside.

Within two weeks of his death, columnists repeated the lie that Kirk was a white supremacist promoting racist, anti-immigrant, transphobic violence and criticized anyone for mourning or honoring him.

Within a month of his death, Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) called Kirk’s views “vile.”

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) called Trump a “wannabe Hitler.” Kamala Harris called Trump a “tyrant” and compared him to a “communist dictator.” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) claimed Trump was an existential threat requiring vigilance against “totalitarian” moves.

Less than 10 days ago, that dangerous rhetoric was repeated by Camden County Commissioner Louis Cappelli Jr., who publicly labeled Trump a “cult leader and traitor.”

Saturday, another individual attempted to assassinate President Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

The pattern has become so predictable that wild conspiracy theories about “false flag” operations are now proliferating. This confusion makes confronting the real problem harder.

The cycle will not stop until more Americans — regardless of party — call out the poisonous rhetoric and insist on debating ideas, not demonizing opponents as enemies who must be stopped by any means.

Political violence has no place in America. Words have consequences. It’s time to choose debate over demonization before more innocent lives are lost.

The Justice Department announced an indictment last week against the Southern Poverty Law Center for allegedly funneling millions of dollars to the very extremist groups it claimed to be fighting.

In addition to allegedly having a hand in the planning of the deadly 2017 Unite the Right event in Charlottesville, Virginia — which led to over $106.47 million in contributions in fiscal year 2024 alone — the SPLC has been credibly accused of bankrolling leaders and organizers in the Ku Klux Klan, the Aryan Nation, the American Front, United Klans of America, the National Socialist Party of America, and the National Alliance.

‘The SPLC engaged in a massive fraud operation to deceive their donors.’

Eager to reassure deep-pocketed donors, SPLC CEO Bryan Fair claimed in a recent video statement that the individuals inside various extremist networks whom his organization has funded were actually “paid confidential informants” tasked with gathering “credible intelligence.”

Liberals rushed to embrace and defend Fair’s suggestion that the SPLC wasn’t backing its purported foes but rather “paying informants to expose and prevent violence by the KKK, neo-Nazis, and other hate groups.”

This narrative might have survived the month had the identities of the SPLC’s “informants” remained secret.

The New York Post, however, claims to have identified at least two of the eight radicals the smear- and fearmongering racket bankrolled.

The Post reported that one of the two alleged SPLC field sources referred to as “F-unknown” in the indictment was Bradley Scott Jenkins, an imperial wizard of the United Klans of America who regarded himself as the leader of the “true Klan.”

The SPLC noted in 2013 that the original United Klans of America — which was responsible for the deadly bombing of Birmingham’s 16th Street Baptist Church in 1963 — “dissolved after it was sued by the Southern Poverty Law Center in the 1980s, but in June 2011, longtime white nationalist Bradley Jenkins of Ashland, Ala., (now the UKA’s self-proclaimed imperial wizard) registered a domain name and attempted a comeback. Jenkins … dreams of rehabilitating the Klan’s image.”

Jenkins, a virulent white supremacist until his death in 2023 at the age of 50, not only revived a group that the SPLC identified as a “serious domestic threat” but reportedly showed no signs of reform or undermining the KKK’s agenda, according to his son, Noah Jenkins.

Noah Jenkins, 24, told the Post, “When I went to the rallies with him as a kid, I never saw anything that made me think he wasn’t a true believer.”

The wizard’s son long suspected that his father “was working with someone” but figured that “maybe he got into trouble and was threatened by [law enforcement] to become an informant to avoid jail or something.”

The SPLC did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

The other individual suspected of being one of the SPLC’s alleged “informants” is April Chambers of Georgia.

According to the Post, Chambers is the “F-unknown” described in the indictment as a KKK member who, along with her husband, “an Exalted Cyclops” of the Klan, sued the Peach State over the KKK’s unsuccessful attempt to participate in Georgia Adopt-a-Highway program.

The indictment alleges that “during the course of the litigation, known payments were traced from the SPLC to F-unknown which exceeded $3,500.00.”

Chambers, who did not respond to the Post’s request for comment, now apparently runs a home cleaning and handyman service.

FBI Director Kash Patel recently stated, “The SPLC engaged in a massive fraud operation to deceive their donors, funded the very hate groups they claim to oppose, and then hid their operations from the public through shell companies and fake entities.”

The SPLC has been charged with 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering.

A newly passed Tennessee law is igniting controversy after lawmakers approved a measure allowing homeowners to use deadly force to protect their property under certain circumstances — and BlazeTV host John Doyle is thrilled, calling it “common sense.”

The legislation was sponsored by state Representative Kip Capley (R) and state Senator Joey Hensley (R) and aims to allow citizens to use deadly force to protect their property if they see no other options in protecting themselves.

And while Doyle is pleased, leftists predictably are not.

“Leftists are up in arms about this. You know, the usual antics saying that Republicans think that things are more freaking valuable than human life,” Doyle says.

Doyle argued against the leftist response in a post on X, writing: “Every red state should have this btw. You don’t have property rights if you cannot defend your property. There can be no asterisk.”

He went on in his post to mock leftists, adding, “‘Erm, so you’re saying a HUMAN LIFE is worth less than some THING?!’”

And while Doyle admits that they aren’t wrong in their assessment, he points out that it is actually the criminal who is deciding that their life is worth less than an object.

“If someone is trying to take your property from you, they have now decided that their life is on the line … because I could use deadly force. I could use lethal force to preserve my property,” he explains.

“But the situation we have now is the state’s going to come in and then step between me and the bad guy facing me and say, ‘Hey, you can’t do that. Human life is freaking valuable.’ … So you’re going to have to relinquish your personal possession because this Neanderthal decided that he wanted it,” he continues.

“That is so backwards,” he says. “Nowhere ever in the history of the world have property rights been understood in that context.”

A substitute teacher from Texas has been accused of having an improper relationship with a student, according to police.

The Llano County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that the Llano Independent School District last Tuesday notified authorities about an alleged improper relationship between a substitute teacher and a student.

‘The district takes all allegations of this nature extremely seriously and remains committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for all students.’

Police identified the suspect as 27-year-old Angela Palmares.

“Investigators conducted interviews and collected evidence, which led to the issuance of an arrest warrant for Palmares,” police stated.

Officers with the Llano County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigation Division and Bell County Sheriff’s Office Violent Crimes Apprehension Unit arrested Palmares without incident in Bell County on Wednesday, according to police.

Palmares has been “charged with improper relationship between an educator and a student,” which is a second-degree felony, the sheriff’s office said.

Under Texas law the offense occurs when an “employee of a public or private primary or secondary school … engages in sexual contact, sexual intercourse, or deviate sexual intercourse with a person who is enrolled in a public or private primary or secondary school at which the employee works.”

The New York Post reported that Palmares is being held on a $150,000 bond.

Mac Edwards, the school district superintendent, wrote a letter to parents saying the substitute teacher was “immediately removed from the list of available substitutes on April 21.”

Edwards added in the letter that an allegation surfaced from Llano High School regarding a substitute teacher and “inappropriate communication with students, specifically through a social media platform outside of the school day.” Edwards said authorities were “promptly” notified.

Edwards added that the substitute teacher had not worked in the school district since April 2.

“The district has been in contact with all of the parents of those students who have been directly impacted by this situation,” the letter stated.

“The district takes all allegations of this nature extremely seriously and remains committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for all students,” Edwards also wrote.

Edwards said the school district at present is “unable to provide additional details due to personnel and student privacy considerations.”

The Llano County Sheriff’s Office did not immediately respond to Blaze News‘ request for comment.

Authorities are urging anyone with information related to the case or anyone who believes they may be a victim to contact the Llano County Sheriff’s Office at 325-247-5767 and request to speak with an investigator in the Criminal Investigation Division.
