Over the weekend, the Democrats held their “non-violent” “No Kings Day” protests, where they had children punching and stabbing effigies of President Trump. This type of violent stupidity is what Democrats and the far-left label as “pro-democracy protests.”
A disturbing scene unfolded in Broadview, Illinois, where a video captured by Mike Drop News shows a masked child stabbing an effigy of President Trump with a stick. Adults nearby stood watching and laughing as the child repeatedly plunged the stick into the effigy's chest. The effigy, dressed in a suit and a red tie, hung limply as the attacks continued.
In Chicago, a video was taken of a Chicago public school teacher imitating Charlie Kirk being shot in the neck. The slob has been identified as Lucy Martinez, a teacher at Nathan Hale Elementary School in Chicago's West Beverly neighborhood. The footage captures Martinez laughing and pretending to be shot in the neck while surrounded by other protesters. A passenger in a pickup truck, which displayed a flag calling the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk a "hero," recorded the video. The driver of the truck reportedly received gestures from the demonstrators, including from Martinez.
Also in Chicago, at the perimeter of the No Kings rally, an activist stood in front of a Progressive Labor Party sign and shouted:
Then, in Palm Beach, the United States Secret Service has discovered a raised tree stand that offers a clear view of the area where President Donald Trump frequently disembarks from Air Force One in Palm Beach, Florida.
Based on its location, calling this sniper's nest a tree stand isn’t fooling anyone. Frankly, I’m disappointed that word of the discovery has been released. I would have loved for it to have been investigated further until more information could be uncovered. Someone built it, and someone intended to use it, and deer hunting was not the objective.
The USSS’s explanation, in my opinion, sounds lame. According to Anthony Guglielmi, the chief of communications for the US Secret Service, no one was present in the area when the stand was found during preparations for Trump's arrival at Palm Beach International Airport.
He told Fox News Digital:
Eric Trump responded to the news, praising the Secret Service for identifying the potential threat while making a sarcastic comment about it.
I’ll stop short of questioning the Secret Service’s methods and motives, but I’m wondering if the surveillance perimeter for anywhere President Trump lands, speaks, or does anything shouldn’t be at least doubled.
The FBI is investigating the situation, confirmed Director Kash Patel, and is working closely with the USSS.
Patel issued a statement, saying:
Despite what the MSM wants America to believe, it is without question the left’s radical ideology that is setting this dangerous tone. The murder of Charlie Kirk should have been a wake-up call for these self-serving radicals; instead, it’s something they mock and make fun of.
The left is composed of seriously disturbed individuals who thrive on hatred and chaos. President Trump is the central figure they despise, and the Secret Service, FBI, and CIA need to wake up to that very serious fact.
