The War On Terror Comes Home
Those who get their news from the mainstream media are probably unaware that the FBI killed two Americans in home raids within the last two weeks. First, they killed a man in Utah who had made some ill-advised, but most likely unserious threats against President Biden on Facebook.
BREAKING: A neighbor recorded and released a video of the FBI raid on 74-year-old Craig Deleeuw Robertson while serving warrants at 6:15am in Provo, Utah

This meme was shared in response by some.
And then, this past week, the FBI killed someone else,
The FBI broke into another house yesterday morning and killed the occupant, this time in Tennessee

I had to read the article twice before realizing this was about a different incident than the FBI killing of Craig Robertson in Utahhttps://t.co/UP3MGnBAbx pic.twitter.com/ALp79mwnU4
The Left Has Become What They Claimed To Hate
The same Democrats who opposed George W. Bush's War on Terror in the Middle East, now apparently have no qualms about the War on Terror coming to Middle America. That point was made in the excellent thread below, by our friend Lafayette Lee.
Many of you are too young to remember, but the Democrats weren’t always the party of angry, scared, stupid, and boring. They used to be confident, open to new ideas, and fun… it wasn’t easy to be a young conservative back in those days because Team Red was pure Hannity.

By the time Obama showed up Republicans really had nothing to offer, just empty slogans and a mess in the Middle East. The GOP was the party of scared, stupid, and boring, and worse yet, they had no moral credibility. It was all squandered on the war and the bailouts…

But these people are arrogant, inflexible, and stale. Hatred and fear have turned them into yesterday’s losers. They have nothing left to offer. Things are bad, and they might get worse, but courage, creativity, and humor belong to us now, and that’s not a bad start.

The inflexibility Lee mentions above has opened a lane for Vivek Ramaswamy. We'll see how far he can take it.
