US justice department removes study finding far-right extremists commit ‘far more’ violence

Report finding rightwing extremists have killed more Americans than other domestic terrorist groups vanished from DoJ website


The US justice department has scrubbed a study from its website concluding that far-right extremists have killed far more Americans than any other domestic terrorist group, just days after a gunman fatally shot the prominent conservative activist Charlie Kirk.



The report, now archived, titled What NIJ Research Tells Us About Domestic Terrorism, vanished from the Department of Justice website between 12 and 13 September, according to Daniel Malmar, a PhD student studying online extremism at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, who had been monitoring the page. Kirk, the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder and Trump ally, was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University on 10 September.



The vanished study opened with: “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists, including 227 events that took more than 520 lives. In this same period, far-left extremists committed 42 ideologically motivated attacks that took 78 lives.”
The National Institute of Justice study, which was based on research spanning three decades, represented one of the most comprehensive government assessments of domestic terrorism patterns. It found that “militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States” and that “the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism”.

But the findings align with independent research from the Center for Strategic and International Studies, which analyzed 893 terrorist plots between 1994 and 2020. That study concluded: “Rightwing attacks and plots account for the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994.”



In congressional testimony in 2023, Heidi Beirich, the executive vice-president of Global Project Against Hate and Extremism, told lawmakers as an expert witness that “data on acts of political violence clearly shows that it is the far right that is driving terrorism in the US, including targeting and, in certain cases, murdering law enforcement”.



“That is not to say there is no violence from far-left actors,” she continued, “it is just simply not on the scale or as deadly as what is coming from far-right actors.”

First Colbert now Kimmel. But nothing wrong with saying homeless should be killed off.

So much for the free speech/fuck your feelings crowd.

It's the double standard/hypocrisy that really pisses me off.

I've been watching Kimmel's monologues on YT for a while now, it was weak as fuck to cancel him over this.

Supposedly Nexstar has a merger or something coming up so it makes sense they'd wanna eliminate anything that could stand in the way of that.

'No Kings' protests draw huge crowds as anti-Trump rallies sweep across US



Huge crowds have gathered to protest against President Donald Trump's policies in cities across the US - among them New York, Washington DC, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles.



The rally in New York City's iconic Times Square drew thousands of people not long after it began on Saturday morning.



The streets and subway entrances were densely packed with people holding up signs with slogans like, "Democracy not Monarchy" and "The Constitution is not optional".



Ahead of the demonstrations, Trump allies accused the protesters of being linked with the far-left Antifa movement, and condemned what they called "the hate America rally".



Organisers and protesters out on Saturday said the events were peaceful.

So much for the party of small government influence

I never imagined I would see something like this in my lifetime after learning about those stuff in the history classes..

I don’t think Kimmel should have been fired, but he should have apologized for blatant verifiable lie he repeated. It wasn’t a joke but statement to his viewers

It’s wild watch libs twist into a pretzel claiming last week it was justifiable to kill someone over their speech on a college campus vs a meltdown over a late night host fired over spreading misinformation and lying

The emotional rants over kimmel’s dismissal from the media and the left versus last week cold blooded murder is eyeopening

I’ll have to go pull up AOC and Kimmel quotes when Tucker was let go again. Compare and contrast

[Giantone]

They weren't lies.

JHC can you imagine the outrage if Dems did this holy shit!

Senate confirms 48 of Trump’s nominees at once after changing the chamber’s rules


https://apnews.com/article/senate-no...fc9e92d2bd968b

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate has confirmed 48 of President Donald Trump’s nominees at once, voting for the first time under new rules to begin clearing a backlog of executive branch positions that had been delayed by Democrats.

Frustrated by the stalling tactics, Senate Republicans moved last week to make it easier to confirm large groups of lower-level, non-judicial nominations. Democrats had forced multiple votes on almost every one of Trump’s picks, infuriating the president and tying up the Senate floor.

The new rules allow Senate Republicans to move multiple nominees with a simple majority vote — a process that would have previously been blocked with just one objection. The rules don’t apply to judicial nominations or high-level Cabinet posts.

“Republicans have fixed a broken process,” Thune said ahead of the vote.

The Senate voted 51-47 to confirm the four dozen nominees. Thune said that those confirmed on Thursday had all received bipartisan votes in committee, including deputy secretaries for the Departments of Defense, Interior, Energy and others.

Among the confirmed are Jonathan Morrison, the new administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and Kimberly Guilfoyle as U.S. ambassador to Greece. Guilfoyle is a former California prosecutor and television news personality who led the fundraising for Trump’s 2020 campaign and was once engaged to Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr.
