The person arrested, along with thousands of violent felons who stormed the US Capitol during the Jan. 6 attack, was pardoned by Donald Trump on the President's very first day in office,

Jones added: Let me be very clear I am ashamed, I am embarrassed, and I am sorry. I am sorry to Speaker Gilbert, I am sorry to his family. I'm sorry to my family and I'm sorry to every single Virginian. I cannot take back what I said, but you have my word that I will always be accountable for my mistakes, and you also have my word that I will spend every waking moment fighting for you.

"They do want to stop the problems, and they've been open about it, and we gave them approval for a period of time," he said. "We are having 'em watch that there's not going to be big crime or some of the problems that you have when you have areas like this that have been literally demolished."

We're going to get to the funding of Antifa, we're going to get to the root of Antifa, and we are going to find and charge all of those people who are causing this chaos in Portland and all these other cities across our country. Talk to all the influencers who have been threatened and beat up and their lives threatened from Antifa members.

The alleged attacker was wound up and sent into battle by the dangerous rhetoric of Labour and the Greens, Finch told the Daily Mail. He said the attack didn't cause any lasting injury. Farage said he was deeply upset about the incident and the words used against him echo the prime minister's disgraceful attack on Reform during Labour conference week and wholly irresponsible comments from the leader of the Green party.

Well, first, that was an extremely ridiculous thing for Ted Cruz to say. I never said Jewish people. I'm not anti-Semitic. I don't hate any people group for their identity or who they are. So that was unbelievably low for a sitting U.S. senator to say. But what I'm talking about is very real. I have a tremendous amount of death threats,

Winston Peters posted to social media on Monday evening saying a disgusting coward had smashed a window in his Auckland home and left a sign on the door. Glass was shattered all over our dog. He also left a sign on the front door. I wasn't home. But my partner and guest were. This is truly gutless, Peters said. Peters told media on Tuesday the note said welcome to the real world.

When Nepal's youth rose up without a leader, they broke a century-long cycle of betrayal, and showed where power really lies. In the 48 hours that Nepal's Gen-Z revolution unfolded, one question echoed across the country: Where is their Lenin? But perhaps that question missed the point. For decades, every Nepali revolution has been undone not by its enemies but by those who claimed to lead it. This time, the absence of a single figurehead was not a weakness; it was the movement's greatest strength.

In the nine months since Donald Trump's return to the White House, the overall goals of his agenda have become clear enough: weaken the United States abroad to create an environment friendly to dictators, while using the U.S. government and armed forces to establish a dictatorship at home. Will it work? The success of Trump's plan depends on how we see it, or rather, whether we choose not to see it.

Recent events have demonstrated a dangerous convergence of heated political rhetoric and the easy availability of powerful weaponry. The targeted assassination of political figures and commentators is rising. The impact of such acts on society's sense of safety and democratic norms is profound. As fear and fury increasingly mix with firearms, it's critical to examine how we got here and how we can respond.

"Bad things happen when they play these games,"

First of all, let me take on the first premise of your question, that it was President Trump's rhetoric that led to an assassin killing our friend Charlie Kirk. That's a blatant lie, said Kelly, before calling the suggestion defamatory and inappropriate in this setting. The argument continued: Student: That's not what I said. Kelly: Yes it is. Student: No, I said he contributed to the political atmosphere, the tension. Kelly: Well, then you have no point. Then your point is utterly empty.

Yes, Jimmy got emotional. So what. He's emotional for himself because he almost torched his entire career. Kimmel is an unrepentant liar who tried to blame Charlie's assassination on the part of the country that just spent the last 2 weeks praying and holding vigils. What he's really saying is that he still thinks it's fair game to slander conservatives. He would rather advance his own political and cultural agenda than confront the truth.

The misogyny and toxic masculinity that Jamie discovered in online communities fuel his radicalization toward violence. Most internet communities are not inherently dangerous, and yet it's fair to ask whether a specific online culture could have influenced the assassin who gunned down conservative activist Charlie Kirk. It is a culture, cultivated on social networks and messaging platforms, where killing seems performative and where human life has no intrinsic value.

A US man has been found guilty of the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump last September near Trump's Florida golf course, United States Attorney General Pam Bondi said on social media. A jury found that Ryan Routh, 59, intended to kill Trump, then a former president and Republican presidential candidate, when he pointed a rifle through a fence while Trump was golfing at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.

After conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated this month in Utah, the state's governor, Spencer Cox, delivered a response that ought to be taught in leadership courses for years to come. "I think we need more moral clarity right now," Cox said during a powerful press conference two days after the shooting. "We hear all the time 'words are violence.' Words are not violence. Violence is violence."

I apologize without reservation to [Scott Jennings], Olbermann wrote in a Tuesday post to X. Olbermann said his messages related to Jennings and late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel could be misinterpreted as a threat. Yesterday I wrote and immediately deleted 2 responses to him about Kimmel because they could be misinterpreted as a threat to anything besides his career. I immediately replaced them with ones specifying what I actually meant, he wrote.

I just wanted to follow up quickly on something that the president had said yesterday. So we heard from Erika Kirk. She said she forgives the man who shot and killed her husband, Landers began, adding: And then right after that, we heard from the president who said, I hate my opponent and I don't want the best for them. How does that square with bringing down the temperature of political violence in this country?
