Cutting Through the Spin on America’s Political Violence Epidemic

Cutting Through the Spin on America’s Political Violence Epidemic

Laura Loomer is spiraling again — unleashing a frenzied torrent of tweets blaming the likes of Candace Owens, Joe Kent, and Tucker Carlson for recent acts of leftist and Islamic terrorism. While I do not support the anti-Trump comments of these three people by any means, the notion that deranged leftists are being radicalized by those three is completely and utterly absurd.

Loomer is posting deranged propaganda, not serious analysis. It is leftist radicals—Antifa thugs, pro-Hamas encampment militants, and deranged Democrats radicalized by the fake news media—who are drawing inspiration from their own side’s fever swamps. They are on platforms like Reddit and Bluesky in an echo chamber of bile. These are the enemy combatants we must be focusing on.

Blaming conservative dissenters putting out provocative takes for clicks for leftist terror is a grotesque inversion that lets the real culprits off the hook. Loomer is no longer fighting legitimate enemies of the MAGA movement. She’s hunting personal foes while handing the Left a free pass. Her obsession with settling scores—family dirt, invented conspiracies, endless feuds—has eclipsed her once laudable truth-seeking pursuits.

Loomer’s well-documented history of mental instability, including involuntary psychiatric holds and public breakdownsand her inability to own guns because she is such a danger to herself and to others, makes her conduct especially alarming. For the sake of the conservative movement and the country, it is time she checks back into the looney bin once again for the good of America and before she gets even more gruesome plastic surgery as she morphs from Jigsaw into the Elephant Man before our very eyes.

This infighting distracts from the true engines of radicalization: Democrat leaders like Hakeem Jeffries and Chris Murphy. Jeffries has branded Trump a racist dictator whose agenda threatens democracy and minorities. Murphy has escalated, painting Trump as mentally unstable and invoking the 25th Amendment while framing him as an existential danger. This is eliminationist rhetoric. When congressional leaders cast the President as a threat to the Republic’s survival, unbalanced followers hear a permission slip for violence. “By any means necessary” stops being a metaphor and becomes a mission. Such inflammatory garbage directly fuels incidents like the attack on President Trump at this past weekend’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner. The same toxic atmosphere preceded Butler, Pennsylvania. Democrat words have body counts.

Yet the Secret Service’s catastrophic failures compound the peril. The lapses at the Correspondents’ Dinner were unforgivable—another embarrassing breach that allowed violence to reach the President. This wasn’t a one-off. It was a chilling repeat of the near-assassination in Butler, where unsecured rooftops, ignored warnings, and operational breakdowns nearly ended Trump’s life. Under Director Sean M. Curran, the agency continues to fumble basic protective duties. Curran, a 23-year veteran Trump tapped in January 2025 after leading his personal detail, was supposed to restore competence. Instead, these repeated failures expose either shocking incompetence or deeper institutional rot that even a loyal appointee cannot fix.

Why does the Secret Service still suck at its one job—keeping the President getting threatened more than any other Chief Executive in history alive? Communication blackouts, inadequate perimeters, resource mismanagement, and a culture of complacency persist. Butler should have triggered a total overhaul. Instead, we get more of the same. President Trump must fire Curran immediately. Loyalty to Trump doesn’t excuse presiding over “no-fail” missions that repeatedly fail. The agency needs immediate sweeping reform with new leadership, depoliticization, and accountability that actually means something. Half-measures and excuses are no longer tolerable when lives—and the Republic—are on the line.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune should resign as well. His tepid approach—learned from a lifetime of serving the establishment—completely undermines the aggressive mandate Trump voters delivered. When deep-state resistance, border chaos, and security breakdowns demand a street fighter, Thune wilts under the pressure. Republicans need spine in leadership, not another ballless wonder. We can no longer tolerate Laura Loomer’s sideshows, Democrat incitement, Secret Service malpractice, or weak GOP stewardship. Conservatives must zero in on real threats. President Trump survived Butler by providence. He deserves absolute protection, ironclad unity, and heads on pikes over every failure that endangers him. It is time to get serious about protecting the man who is saving our country.
