The incendiary and violent rhetoric emanating from the radical left has reached a fever pitch, with left-wing streamer Steven Bonnell, who operates under the alias “Destiny,” openly calling for the murder of political opponents. In a vile diatribe that has shocked the conscience of the nation, Bonnell declared, “You need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed when they go to events so they look to their leadership to turn down the temperature.” This is not a random, isolated comment but a calculated statement advocating for a campaign of terror designed to silence half of the country through fear and violence.
This explicit call for political violence is not happening in a vacuum. It is the poisonous fruit of a liberal media ecosystem that has spent years dehumanizing conservatives, Republicans, and supporters of President Donald J. Trump. While the conservative media rightly condemns such horrific language, the mainstream press remains conspicuously silent, offering no prime-time condemnations or front-page exposes. Their failure to uniformly and forcefully reject these calls for bloodshed exposes their deep-seated hypocrisy and their role as accomplices in fostering a climate of hatred.

The tragic and devastating assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk by a far-left assassin, and the attempted assassination of President Trump last summer, are not abstract concepts. They are the real-world consequences of this relentless and hateful incitement. Bonnell’s statement is a direct endorsement of this very violence, suggesting that such acts are not only acceptable but necessary. He chillingly argues that the “issue is right now they don’t feel like there is any fear,” implying that more conservative lives must be extinguished to achieve his desired political outcome.
We have already canceled events due to security issues, have an increase in death threats
Destiny is saying this to encourage more assassinations despite the fact everyone is already on edge https://t.co/j5je4z9K90

This moment demands strong, unwavering leadership, and it is President Donald Trump who has consistently stood as a bulwark against this rising tide of left-wing anarchism. While his opponents often traffic in violent imagery and rhetoric, the President calls for law, order, and the peaceful expression of political beliefs. The contrast could not be starker or more important for the future of our republic. The American people see clearly which side promotes unity and which side promotes murderous intimidation.
