This article is about three types of assassination.

The first, which President Trump has endured nonstop since he first entered the political arena, is character assassination.

The second is legal assassination, sometimes called “lawfare.” The term is appropriate, because it is derived from warfare.

This is the attempt to lawlessly, but under the guise of law, bankrupt, ruin, defame and even imprison a dangerous political opponent.

In extreme cases, this opponent might even face life imprisonment, which is a legal equivalent of the death penalty.

(Murderers are often given the death penalty or life in prison, which some people say is a fate worse than death.)

And finally, when all else fails, there is actual assassination.

These three types of assassination are connected, and typically one leads to another.

In March of this year, Bryan Malinowski, the executive director of the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport in Little Rock, Arkansas, was killed by agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) during a pre-dawn raid of his home.

It was an unwarranted and indefensible killing of a kind that should never, ever happen in a free country like the United States.

Because we have a media that no longer serves in its traditional role as a government watchdog, this incident was not widely reported.

Because too many members of Congress no longer take seriously their responsibility to protect the rights of those who elect them, the ATF has suffered no repercussions.

How and why did this killing take place?

Dressed in SWAT gear, together with Little Rock police, they showed up in ten vehicles at Malinowski’s house before dawn on March 19.

They cut the power to his house and put a piece of tape over the doorbell camera so that Malinowski couldn’t see who they were.

Less than a minute later, after an exchange of gunfire, Malinowski was dead.

Most people have no idea who Alissa Heinerscheid is, but conservatives should send her a big fat thank-you note.

The former marketing VP did more to change the fortunes of consumer activism in this country than anyone ever dreamed.

The moment she plastered Dylan Mulvaney’s face on Bud Light’s blue cans, the entire script from the last 20 years flipped. Suddenly, it wasn’t the cocky CEOs of major brands holding all the power — but an army of Americans who, thanks to that six-pack, have brought the entire landscape of corporate America to its knees.

And this election is proof.

When Democrats pushed out a list of “88 Business Leaders for Harris” endorsements last week, it was meant to give the vice president some credibility on economic issues.

And maybe it was an impressive stat if all people read was the headline. After all, Hillary Clinton had less than 60 of these same corporate backers in 2016.

But what’s extremely revealing about these names, especially the ones attached to popular U.S. brands, is that almost all of Harris’s support comes from former CEOs and chairmen of companies who no longer represent the business.

In other words, these past-tense executives, who make up half of the 88 names, are listed even though they don’t qualify as actual leaders of anything.

Here’s what this should say to every American who’s taken a stand on the extremism of major companies: You’re winning.

[TTP] The debate yesterday was very revealing – of the people who put it on. They are the party of “fairness,” but only for me, not for thee – and never for Trump. What an ugly spectacle. But contempt for the intelligence of the American people may be their downfall.

Somehow the United States ended up this summer with no engaged president and an absent vice president who avoids the missing president and is frantically repudiating everything she co-owned the last three years.

The world was already confused over how President Joe Biden was apparently declared by unnamed Democratic insiders and donors unfit and unable to continue as their presidential candidate—as if he were a dethroned Third-World usurper.

It further wondered how those who staged his removal had no problem allowing him, in his debilitated state, to continue as America’s commander-in-chief until January 20, 2025.

They demonstrated their priorities that focus on retaining power, not the welfare of the nation or the will of over 14 million Biden primary voters.

Vice President Kamala Harris, until Biden’s forced abdication, was judged by these same backroom fixers as too incompetent to ever be commander-in-chief and thus for three years a good reason why Biden apparently was not forced out earlier.

Now nominal Vice President Harris is on the campaign trail nonstop, while Biden has taken the most vacation time off and worked the shortest workweek in presidential memory.

The world again wonders who is in charge, what they believe, who is a friend, and who is an enemy.

Greetings, y'all. The title of this week’s missive comes from a song by Rick Springfield, “Don’t Talk to Strangers.”

I find it unconscionable that we somehow believe that we should enter into negotiations and talks with Islamic jihadists, also known as terrorists.

This past Labor Day weekend again evidenced why that is a futile pursuit.

Six hostages who were taken during the heinous raid into Israel last year on October 7th were found dead in a tunnel system under the city of Rafah.

Their names are HerschGoldberg-Polin (23), Carmel Gat (40), Alexander Lobanov (32), Almog Sarusi (27), Eden Yerushalmi (24) and Ori Danino (25).

Two of them were young women, and one of them was an American citizen.

These barbaric animals, Hamas, forced them to make propaganda videos before they were executed — shot in the head at close distance — which they are now releasing.

So, why do we talk to individuals who have as their charter the elimination, eradication, and extermination of an entire group of people because they are Jewish?

What was also quite disconcerting was Joe Biden’s warning to Israel not to enter Rafah. What did he and the Biden administration know?

Ceasefire? I am waiting for someone to explain why.
