The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

Masks. Armed. No insignia. No names. No warrants. But they will come up to an American citizen on the street and threaten him with arrest for peacefully exercising basic American rights.

I'd challenge historians of the American Revolution to articulate how things were worse than this in April 1775.

In a Chicagoland Suburb, Berwyn, IL, multiple ICE agents and a cameraman surround a resident who blew his horn and walked down the street in his own neighborhood. They demand his ID and they threatene...

The wealthy don’t need those tax cuts.
They have more than they can ever spend.
This is VANITY greed.
A sickness we have indulged for far too long.
