In one 18-month period in the early 1970s, there were 2,500 bombings on American soil—nearly 5 a day. Did you know that? Many Americans don't. These leftist terrorists who declared war on America went on to work at top law firms, nonprofits, and Ivy League universities. 🧵

King George Soros is funding "No Kings Day," a national day of protests on June 14th, aimed at opposing President Trump's policies. This event coincides with the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army and is being organized by Indivisible, which has received significant financial support from Soros. Protests are set to occur not only in major cities but also in smaller towns across Missouri. My office is coordinating with law enforcement to ensure safety and prevent violence, determined not to repeat past unrest.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

King George Soros is bankrolling "No Kings Day"—a national day of riots—on June 14th through one of his leftist NGOs. Soros financed the mass migration crisis. Now he's mobilizing his army of illegal aliens and far-left activists to try to stop President Trump from ending it. 🧵 https://t.co/hPaiOgVqfA

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The Left wants to nationalize the riots in Los Angeles. On June 14th—the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army—they're planning to organize 1,500 "No Kings Day" protests across the country. They call it a "nationwide day of defiance." https://t.co/NhxWRvq8eH

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The organizing group, Indivisible, was founded in 2016 to fund, organize and mobilize anti-America and anti-Trump protests. It has received more than $7.5 million from George Soros since 2017. https://t.co/BI5lMa0UN6

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

These protests aren't confined to Los Angeles or New York City—they want them to spread deep into the heartland. Over a dozen are planned in my home state of Missouri. https://t.co/3d1HlprXJX

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

And not just in St. Louis and Kansas City—but in small towns like Fayette, Maryville, Union, and Clinton. This is one of the more brazen acts by the Left and the Soros empire since the BLM "Summer of Love" burned down towns and cities across America in 2020.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

President Trump will control the unrest as he has in Los Angeles. My office is working with state and local law enforcement to keep Missourians safe. Violent acts will be met with the full force of the law. We are not going to let them run the 2020 playbook. Never again. https://t.co/U8WLno7vxh

The speaker believes defending deported MS-13 gang members is not a worthwhile cause. They claim the Democratic party's actions stem from "Trump derangement syndrome" and their inability to accept their defeat in November. The speaker suggests Democrats are grasping at "ridiculous things" to resist, exemplified by delaying the ambassador to the Holy See's arrival for the Pope's installation. The speaker concludes that this behavior demonstrates "total brokenness from the other side."

Speaker 0: Maybe, just maybe, defending people who were deported, who are MS thirteen gang members who are terrorizing our communities. That's not the hill to die on. But next week, it'll be something else. But the truth is, this is really about Trump derangement syndrome. The truth is, this is about the Democrats not coming to grips about, you know, getting smoked in November because they don't have a message. So what are they grasping at? All these ridiculous things so somebody can say they're the chief resistor. I just never thought I'd see a day that the resistance would mean holding up the ambassador to the Holy See to be there for the installation of the pope. But here's where we are. Total brokenness from the other side.

The Biden Administration's classified "Plan for Countering Domestic Terrorism" has been declassified, revealing a strategy that extends beyond criminal violence to encompass online speech, education, and gun control. The plan outlines a four-pillar approach: information-sharing, preventing recruitment, disrupting activities, and confronting long-term contributors. It indicates a partnership with Big Tech and NGOs to censor dissenting voices, targeting individuals like pro-life activists and conservatives. The document's explicit ideological vision raises concerns about government overreach and the suppression of ideas.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Until yesterday, the Biden Administration's "Plan for Countering Domestic Terrorism" was classified. Now, thanks to @DNIGabbard, it's public. It's a roadmap for left-wing ideological warfare. 🧵 https://t.co/gKgfob43Xh

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

In June 2021, the Biden admin released its public strategy for "countering domestic terrorism." In a lawsuit, @America1stLegal discovered that there was a separate, classified version of that plan. But the private version wasn't public—until now. https://t.co/eQ6fJtwaGZ

As promised, I have declassified the Biden Administration’s Strategic Implementation Plan for Countering Domestic Terrorism.   Read it here: https://www.odni.gov/index.php/newsroom/dig/4064-dig-strat-impl-plan-ct-biden https://t.co/p9co00Scge

Under President Trump’s leadership, @ODNIgov will bring transparency and accountability to end the weaponization of https://t.co/CPpUlA2eXy

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

This was written in the early months of the Biden presidency. But it lays out, in detail, exactly what they would go on to do—and how they justified it. By adopting the framework of "domestic terrorism" (DT), they could effectively treat their critics as enemies of the state.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

What's remarkable about the document is that it's an explicitly ideological vision. Its scope extends far beyond criminal violence—it encompasses online speech, education, gun control, even election participation. It's a strategy to suppress not just individuals, but IDEAS. https://t.co/pHt7f1CjkZ

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The plan lays out a four-pillar strategy: 1) Understand and Share DT-Related Information 2) Prevent DT Recruitment and Mobilization to Violence 3) Disrupt and Deter DT Activity 4) Confront Long-Term Contributors to DT That's a lot of jargon. Here's what it actually means. https://t.co/tVUSssdfuO

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Pillar One is information-sharing—that's the "whole-of-government" strategy in practice. They wanted every arm of the government to be a partner in this. Remember, when this document refers to "domestic terrorism" (DT), we know what they mean—because they publicly told us: https://t.co/5pMXXZfSlu

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Pillar Two is preventing "recruitment" and "mobilization." In practice, this meant mobilizing the security state to censor and suppress right-wingers. We know this, because it was detailed in the thousands of pages of documents we unearthed when I sued the Biden admin in 2021. https://t.co/p5sPcr3EJ1

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The plan lays out the roadmap for how the Biden administration would partner with powerful "third-party" actors—Big Tech, left-wing NGOs, anti-"hate" groups, etc—to implement this censorship regime. I explained exactly how that system worked here: https://t.co/vNDBYyAo8r

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The Left spent the past decade building a vast censorship enterprise. A shadowy network of NGOs, tech groups and governments working to censor the Left's enemies—not just in America, but across the West. Over the next four years, the GOP must expose + dismantle this system. 🧵 https://t.co/XH2EkdGaoM

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Pillar Three is about transforming the mission of the security state to place a higher priority on prosecuting "domestic terrorism," and pushing for expanded power to pursue that agenda. And that's what they did. In Biden's first year, the FBI more than doubled its DT caseload. https://t.co/FNDCoRdacN

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Once again, we know what "DT" meant, because we saw it in practice. Pro-life activists, parents, traditional Catholics, conservatives in the military—all were targets. The plan goes so far as to discuss putting Americans with no ties to foreign terrorism on terror watchlists: https://t.co/KQUcl8QwOz

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Pillar Four is just openly advocating for the entire federal government to become a vehicle for leftism. It calls for funding "civics education" to teach "action civics" (read: left-wing activism) and wielding law enforcement to "mitigate xenophobia and bias" in COVID policy. https://t.co/OQ3f65tspR

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Finally, as you can see above, it calls for a ban on "assault weapons and high-capacity magazines." Once again, this was a preview of how they would operate—the Biden admin regularly used the specter of "domestic terror" as a pretext to push for crackdowns on gun rights. https://t.co/mHzulFfeY9

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

When it dropped in 2021, the public version of this "domestic terrorism" plan generated a huge backlash. It was the first time in U.S. history that a president had ever come out with a national plan to combat "domestic terrorism." Even the hard-left ACLU came out against it. https://t.co/dczwcvzxmq

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

But the private, internal one is worse. It's specific, direct, and doesn't hide behind vague, sweeping generalities. When read in light of everything the Biden administration went on to do, their overarching goals are crystal clear. We can never let this happen again. End 🧵

It's hard to overstate the significance of recent changes regarding free speech. For years, the State Department engaged in a global censorship operation, targeting not just foreign propaganda but also American voices. This censorship, often disguised as combating "disinformation," has threatened Western freedom. My legal battle against the Biden administration revealed extensive ties between government agencies and third-party censors. Now, with a supportive administration, we are dismantling this censorship enterprise, marking a crucial victory for free speech, especially online.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

It's hard to overstate how big this is. For years, the State Department ran a global censorship operation—not just in America, but across the West. Now, it's pushing free speech instead. Here's why this matters. 🧵

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The "disinformation" and "hate speech" industry is one of the top threats to Western freedom today. "From its very beginnings," @SecRubio writes, this industry "has existed to protect the American establishment from the voices of forgotten Americans."

@SecRubio - Secretary Marco Rubio

Over the past half decade, our own governing ruling class nearly destroyed America's long free speech history. Today, we are putting that to an end. https://thefederalist.com/2025/04/16/rubio-to-protect-free-speech-the-censorship-industrial-complex-must-be-dismantled/

Rubio: To Protect Free Speech, The Censorship Complex Must Die No matter what name it goes by, the Global Engagement Center is dead. It will not return. thefederalist.com

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

As Attorney General of Missouri, I sued the Biden admin for working with Big Tech to censor conservatives. We took them all the way to the Supreme Court. That case—Missouri v. Biden—led to the release of thousands of pages of documents detailing a vast censorship enterprise. https://t.co/YffN43srog

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Piece by piece, we uncovered exactly how this system worked. Under Biden, government agencies funded an army of third-party censors and "disinformation" groups to do what they couldn't legally do themselves—censor American speech. More details here: https://t.co/vNDBYyAo8r

The Left spent the past decade building a vast censorship enterprise.

Over the next four years, the GOP must expose + dismantle this system. 🧵 https://t.co/XH2EkdGaoM

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

One of the nerve centers of this censorship machine was the State Department's Global Engagement Center (GEC). Founded under Obama, the GEC was originally billed as a way to combat FOREIGN propaganda. But it began to target Americans—under the guise of fighting "disinformation." https://t.co/i8LTeUKzcB

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

And it wasn't just Americans. The GEC funded and worked with powerful NGOs pushing speech restrictions and creating advertiser blacklists—designed to crush conservative media—across the West. Your tax dollars were funding a global war against conservatives. As Rubio writes: https://t.co/1I03Q8VCks

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

These people were very good at burying their radicalism in neutral, harmless euphemisms—"disinformation," "information integrity," etc. But in practice, they were almost exclusively going after right-wing speech. This was an international effort to silence criticism of the Left.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

For example: One GEC-funded group, the London-based Global Disinformation Index, compiled blacklists of media outlets to feed to advertisers—essentially a form of financial warfare against disfavored outlets. The top 10 outlets on its "disinformation" list were all on the right. https://t.co/sdjGwfu3dF

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Last year, I led a fight in Congress to shutter the GEC for good. The agency was supposed to sunset at the end of 2024. But the Biden State Department simply renamed it, kept all the same employees, and tried to smuggle it into the next administration. https://t.co/Zfmi7fDTys

@SenEricSchmitt - Senator Eric Schmitt

The Global Engagement Center must be excluded from any subsequent piece of legislation for the remainder of the 118th Congress. The American people deserve to know their First Amendment rights are being protected. https://t.co/dxU8V5clAz

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

That's how the administrative state works. It morphs and adapts to protect itself. But now, those of us in Congress who pushed for these reforms have an administration that shares our goals. As Rubio writes today: "Whatever name it goes by, GEC is dead. It will not return." https://t.co/M0VsQrrfAN

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

This is a huge step in dismantling the Left's censorship enterprise. Free speech—and in particular, free speech online—is one of the major battlefields of our time. It's one of the fights that will define whether we win or lose on everything else. It's a big, big win.

I believe our civilization is under threat from a radical network of NGOs that are behind many crises today, including censorship and migration.

Disinformation requires a whole of society approach, not just governmental action. Some countries are more progressive in recognizing this challenge. A whole of society effort is key to empowering people with real and accurate information. This approach means sharing experiences and holding governments, social media platforms, and political leaders accountable. Democracy depends on a healthy information space achievable through this effort. The whole of society response includes the private sector, public sector, and civil society. Cooperation from tech platforms, good faith, and enforcement of terms of service are needed. It also requires government acknowledgment that the problem extends beyond foreign actors.

Speaker 0: Addressing disinformation requires a whole of society approach. Speaker 1: Disinformation is not going to be fixed by governments acting alone. I think we've seen that a whole of society effort is really key to the solution. Speaker 2: There are some countries, more so in Europe or up in other parts of North America, that are more progressive in recognizing that this is a whole society challenge. Speaker 3: A whole of society approach, like what would be your wish list if you could implement anything. Or to be able to trust when somebody tells them it's fake. Is there anything that governments can do on that front? Absolutely, this is a whole of society problem. So there's things that governments can do, you know, individual national governments and and multilateral institutions. Speaker 4: Disinformation challenges to democracy require that we work together as a community to share our experiences and to hold governments, social media platforms, and political leaders accountable for making sure that people are empowered with information that is real and accurate. Democracy depends on a healthy information space that can only be achieved through a whole of society effort. Speaker 0: Countering disinformation, we often talk about a whole of society response. Of course, we need Speaker 5: Disinformation, a whole of society approach. I wanna get into the, quote, whole of society response, the whole of society network response, private sector, public sector, civil society. Speaker 3: Means that we're circulating, and that to me is the whole of society approach. Speaker 0: I think the solution has to be whole of society, which is a word that we throw around a lot, especially in venues like these. Right? We need cooperation from the tech platforms, good faith cooperation, and enforcement of terms of service. But we also need people in the government who are willing to say, yes, this is a problem and it's not just about foreign actors.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

All of this is completely unprecedented. It's an entirely new, sprawling system of speech and thought control—far more powerful and far-reaching than anything we've seen the past, built with and for the new technology of the digital age. And most of it operates in the shadows. https://t.co/wzUlFSCaYx

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The censorship enterprise is enabled by a vast ecosystem of "non-governmental organizations" (NGOs). These groups represent a fifth column in American politics—a shadow state that serves the interests of the ruling elite, with no accountability to the society it wields power in. https://t.co/RWL0w9nv5F

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

I went into detail about who these groups are, what they do, and how they coordinate with elites in government and elsewhere in my thread earlier this month. We'll get into it much more in tomorrow's hearing too. But let me briefly tell you why this is of such urgent importance.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

In the 21st century, the internet is the new public square. This is where people get the information they need to understand the world. It's where they read, write, argue, and learn. It's where they shape the ideas that will define the future. It's where politics happens. https://t.co/oJ4xGrtP7E

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

That's why this fight matters. The fight for freedom of speech online is the fight for a free people's right to access, analyze, share and discuss information on their own terms, and to draw their own conclusions. In that sense, it's the fight for self-government itself.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The assault on free speech across the West isn't happening in a vacuum. It's inextricably connected to the war on our shared history, heritage, and identity. In other parts of the West—where the crisis is much further along—politicians admit this openly: https://t.co/wYgCtgEfr0

Speaker 0: There's been some that have been agitating in the parliament to nullify the laws, to remove them off the statute books. Think about what kind of toxic message that would send to the New South Wales community, and I think the advocates for those changes need to explain what do they want people to have the right to say. What kind of racist abuse do they want to see or be able to lawfully see on the streets of Sydney? I recognize and I fully said from the beginning that we don't have the same freedom of speech laws that they have in The United States. And the reason for that is that we wanna hold together a multicultural community and have people live in peace free from the kind of vilification and hatred that we do see around the world.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

You heard the Australian Premier above: They need censorship to carry out their entire social agenda. In America, too, this is part of a much deeper war on *who we are.* It's a tool to silence the critics of the disastrous social transformation that the Left wants to carry out.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

And—as we'll discuss tomorrow—it's all funded by your tax dollars. The sprawling labyrinth of leftist NGOs, nonprofits, foundations and activist groups that drive this agenda don't just work hand-in-glove with their friends in the federal bureaucracy; they're paid by them, too.

The Left has built a vast censorship enterprise over the past decade, leveraging a coalition of NGOs, tech companies, and government agencies to suppress dissent, particularly targeting conservative voices. The Biden administration intensified this effort, creating a system where former officials and private groups collaborate closely. This includes funding organizations that blacklist conservative media and pressure tech platforms to alter their algorithms. While some government entities have been dismantled under President Trump, many private censorship groups remain active, and the investigation into their operations continues.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The censorship-industrial complex wasn't built overnight. It's been festering for years. But the Biden administration mobilized an unholy alliance of government power, taxpayer dollars, NGOs and Big Tech companies to build it into a global censorship powerhouse.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Seemingly every agency was a partner in building this system: FBI, CIA, NSA, DHS, State Department, Department of Education, the National Science Foundation, USAID—even FEMA. Through grants and partnerships, these agencies funneled countless tax dollars to censorship groups. https://t.co/GahTDypN0Z

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

What you have to understand is that these groups operate as one cohesive class. There's a revolving door between the "public" and "private" spheres. Former government officials populate the advisory boards of these "disinformation" groups—and vice versa. https://t.co/jspbxJHAIW

@shellenberger - Michael Shellenberger

The groups behind the X/Twitter ad boycott say they're "nongovernmental," but they're not. They're funded by governments, work with intel agencies, and/or were caught spying for governments. Congress & UK Parliament must investigate this government-backed assault on free speech. https://t.co/bl3T3zwSv7

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Biden's transition team was STACKED with tech insiders. They staffed the entire executive branch—State, Treasury, EPA, OMB, etc. Many of them were Obama alumni. When Obama left office, they went to work in tech. When Biden's presidency began, they transitioned right back in. https://t.co/JLJxbD0amy

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

So it should come as no surprise that these worlds are in constant communication with one another. Remember Jen Psaki boasting that they were "flagging problematic posts" for Facebook? These weren't independent actors. Under the Biden administration, it was one system. https://t.co/m2HyXSkZo4

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

And Biden officials didn't just "flag" content. They pushed platforms to transform their algorithms to suppress ideas they disliked. In an email, Biden's Digital Director told YouTube that "this is a concern that is shared at the highest (and I mean highest) levels of the WH." https://t.co/ygBLdqFIuX

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Those are just a few minor examples of a trend that accelerated over the past decade: Western governments creating, funding or coordinating with powerful outside groups to clamp down on (mostly right-wing) dissent. Just look at the State Department's "Global Engagement Center." https://t.co/ea8PHzxanq

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Between 2020 and 2021, two State Department-backed entities—the Global Engagement Center (GEC) and the National Endowment for Democracy—funneled $665,000 to the Global Disinformation Index (GDI), a British nonprofit which creates secretive blacklists of conservative media. https://t.co/ApmALKOYPr

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

GDI's blacklists were stealthily fed to advertising companies to financially cripple targeted news outlets. The top 10 outlets on its "disinformation" list are all conservative. GDI's CEO openly boasted that this had "a significant impact on" the outlets' "advertising revenue." https://t.co/k37XXgyPVF

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The GEC was created to combat FOREIGN propaganda aimed at undermining US security. But instead, it was turned inwards on our own citizens. We've seen this stuff happen across our intelligence and security agencies. I fought to shutter the GEC—for good. https://t.co/Zfmi7fDlIU

@SenEricSchmitt - Senator Eric Schmitt

The Global Engagement Center must be excluded from any subsequent piece of legislation for the remainder of the 118th Congress. The American people deserve to know their First Amendment rights are being protected. https://t.co/dxU8V5clAz

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

During the 2020 election—under President Trump's first term—the Department of Homeland Security's CISA formed a "counter-disinformation" coalition with powerful outside censorship groups. Here's what that network did during that election cycle alone, per @FFO_Freedom's analysis: https://t.co/XbeAfYln84

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

This system operates across the borders of the West—giving it yet another way around our Constitution. When their censorship machine faced legal challenges in the US, Biden officials and their nonprofit allies began using foreign censorship laws to crack down on American speech. https://t.co/pvZ3tMoSAt

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

At least 23 US-funded NGOs, nonprofits and "disinformation" groups have received nearly $15.5 million of your tax dollars to help enforce the EU's draconian new Digital Services Act—which levies hefty fines on tech platforms (including US platforms) for allowing "disinformation." https://t.co/mCcBfjMSiH

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

In other words: Using these groups, our government was helping European bureaucrats bully US tech companies into censoring American speech. That includes groups like NewsGuard—whose advisory board has boasted the former heads of the CIA and NSA, DHS, and the GEC, respectively. https://t.co/WQekCCwPVl

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

To sum things up: American and European bureaucrats, along with their friends in the NGOs and the tech companies, have been working together to wage a war of censorship and suppression against their own citizens across the West.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

I fought this censorship-industrial complex as Attorney General of Missouri, where I sued the Biden admin for pressuring tech platforms into censoring conservatives—and took them to the Supreme Court. Now it's time to work with President Trump to end this once and for all. https://t.co/hUPYmxdyX2

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Thankfully, President Trump is dismantling the government arm of this regime. The State Department's Global Engagement Center has been shut down.

Government officials allegedly coerced Facebook and Twitter to censor posts via threatening emails, according to the transcript. A Biden White House official, Rob Flaherty, purportedly sent explicit threats to Facebook demanding content removal. High-ranking government officials had a special portal to flag content to senior executives at Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, outsourcing censorship. Universities like Stanford and the University of Washington were allegedly used to flag "wrong think," which then led to government pressure on social media companies. The speaker asserts this network, like the "story of COVID," was about power and control, with entities exceeding their authority. The OSHA vaccine mandate is cited as an example of an agency overstepping its original purpose.

Speaker 1: And they had a special portal, Dan, that a special portal between high ranking government officials and senior executives at Instagram and Facebook and Twitter, where they were flagging things, they were using the full force of the government to to outsource their censorship. And, you know, talking about the NGOs, and we're gonna I had a I had a thread, if anybody wants to go on X today, a thread laying some of this stuff out. We're gonna continue this NGO investigation because even in that case, we discovered that that universities like Stanford and the University of Washington were being used, to to flag some of this, what they believed was wrong think, and then the government would put pressure on social media companies. So this was a vast network that was all about much like the story of COVID, really, was all about power and control. That's what this was. And people who never should have had it in the first place had way too much of it, and they were willing to exercise it in ways that were unimaginable. Think about the OSHA vaccine mandate, Dan. Like, you know Yeah. That was a that was an agency created to make sure forklifts beeped when they back up, not force a medical procedure on a hundred million people.

The recent surge in attacks on Tesla, including arson and gunfire, highlights a troubling trend of political violence historically associated with the Left. Since January 6, 2021, there's been a narrative of "domestic terrorism" that overlooks this history. The institutional Left, from media to education, often downplays or excuses such violence, creating a culture of complicity. This pattern has persisted since the 1960s, with past militant groups like the Weather Underground and the Armed Resistance Unit. To restore order, we must confront this lawlessness decisively.

The Tesla attacks are getting worse. Arson. Molotov cocktails. Bouts of gunfire. This isn't new. The Left has used violence as a political tool for decades. Only one thing can stop this. In the words of Pat Buchanan: "Force, rooted in justice, and backed by moral courage." 🧵

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Since January 6, 2021, we've been fed round-the-clock hysteria about "domestic terrorism" from the Right. This is what the kids like to call "gaslighting." The truth is, since the 1960s, political violence has overwhelmingly been a product of the Left.

"From 1960s riots to the 2020 destruction, the left has always used violence to push its agenda. A near-monopoly on media and education has allowed progressives to rewrite history, erasing their movement’s violent past." https://www.theblaze.com/columns/opinion/will-federal-law-enforcement-treat-tesla-attacks-as-terrorism

Will federal law enforcement treat Tesla attacks as terrorism? | Blaze Media From 1960s riots to the 2020 destruction, the left has always used violence to push its agenda. The Tesla arsons are another reminder that leftists won’t stop voluntarily. theblaze.com

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Make no mistake: This isn't just a few fringe radicals. Sure, they're the ones who are out there tossing Molotovs in the streets. But the entire institutional Left—from the media to the education system to the Democratic Party itself—colludes to encourage, justify and excuse it.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

In 1971, the Weather Underground—a far-left terrorist group—actually bombed the Capitol building, planting an explosive device in a ground-floor bathroom. In 1983, another left-wing militant group called the Armed Resistance Unit detonated a bomb outside the Senate chamber. https://t.co/ZG4lh7pXxR

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

In 18 months from 1971-72, we had 2500 domestic bombings—more than 5 a day. But most Americans don't remember this. Why? Because the Left controls the schools, the press, the whole system of organized culture—so it's been erased from our popular memory. https://t.co/8oadJQxh9L https://t.co/dxFcbeD1WB

Don't be surprised by anti-Tesla terrorism. Between 1969 and 1985, leftist militants carried out thousands of terrorist attacks across the U.S. Many were forgiven. They were hired by law firms, became professors at colleges, and got juicy book deals. https://t.co/3Wvjof1Vjn

We've seen the same thing with the Tesla attacks today. Most respectable voices on the Left won't go so far as to outright ENDORSE the violence, of course—but they'll distract, equivocate, and soft-peddle it. Here's a textbook example of how that works: https://t.co/BA4RE9UCaq

CNN host suggests that shooting up, firebombing, and vandalizing Tesla locations is just “resistance.” Rep. Seth Moulton (D) nods along and dismisses the Tesla attacks because Republicans “try to kiII cops.” What https://t.co/HN6m2lIViK

Video Transcript AI Summary
Trump seems to believe that attacking Teslas or dealerships is domestic terrorism, while attempting to kill cops to overthrow the government and change an election is not. According to Speaker 1, Trump thinks freedom and liberties belong only to people who agree with him. Speaker 1 states that this view of America is not shared by people who believe in the Constitution.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: That, like, if you, you know, are attacking Teslas or dealerships going beyond vandalism that that could be an act of domestic terrorism. But I do wanna ask about this as resistance. Is this what resistance should look like? Speaker 1: So Trump thinks that if you try to kill cops to overthrow the government and change an election, that's not domestic terrorism, but somehow having a protest in front of a Tesla theater dealership is. The bottom line with Trump is freedom and liberties belong to people who agree with him, and that's it. That's his view of America. That's not a view that people who believe in our constitution share.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

Oh, they'll walk right up to the line—but always with just enough plausible deniability. As deranged leftists open fire on Tesla dealerships, they'll post articles titled "Kill Tesla" with pictures of burning cars, and then claim that they were just talking about a boycott. https://t.co/BslJcnw30U

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

But this is how the playbook always works. From the BLM riots, to the mob harassment of Supreme Court justices, to assassination attempts against Brett Kavanaugh and Donald Trump, the violent radical arm of the Left always gets the wink-and-a-nod from the "respectable" liberals.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

In a healthy political system, this lawlessness would be equally unacceptable to both sides. It would be good for America to have a Democratic Party that didn't encourage, excuse, and make common cause with violent leftists—let alone actively try to bail BLM rioters out of jail. https://t.co/dsVQGgAAtu

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

But that's not what we have. So we must respond to this new era of political violence with the full force of the law. The decades-long practice of coddling leftist terrorists has been a disaster for our country. It taught the Left that these tactics work. That has to end.

The American Bar Association (ABA) has become increasingly partisan, launching attacks against President Trump while remaining silent on the Biden Administration's actions. Their recent statements reflect a leftist agenda, raising concerns about their influence on judicial selection. The ABA's push for DEI mandates in law schools has further eroded confidence in the institution. With funding from sources like USAID, questions arise about conflicts of interest. I, alongside several senators, aim to free our judicial selection process from ABA control and support the appointment of Trump judges.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

The American Bar Association sat on the sidelines as our legal system was weaponized against normal Americans. Now, they launch a pressure campaign against President Trump on day one. We’ve had enough. It’s time to liberate our legal system from this failed institution. 🧵 https://t.co/C2XwX2Cb8w

On Feb. 10 and Mar. 3, the ABA sent two highly partisan statements parroting leftist talking points and saying "Americans expect better." https://t.co/tHbJ1X1Sce

Americans certainly expected better than the Biden Administration's unprecedented attempt to throw their political opponents in jail (Banana republic stuff) and made that known on November 5th.

The ABA's partisanship is of concern because it traditionally plays a large role in judicial selection in the United States, credentialing judge candidates in an increasingly partisan way. https://t.co/b4wWNH6RRn

The American Bar Association once had a very special relationship to the practice of law and legal education. But confidence in the ABA has eroded. Under Attorney General Pamela Bondi’s leadership, DOJ is carrying out President Trump’s executive orders putting an end to radical DEI programs, and we’re all over the ABA’s illegal and immoral diversity mandates for law school accreditation.

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

And to cap it all off, who is funding the ABA you might ask? That's right, USAID. You really can't make this stuff up. https://t.co/GDoMSgD5xm

@DataRepublican - DataRepublican (small r)

@elonmusk The ABA currently holds $75,650,439 in active spending awards under the UEI D2KUZ2RYLJJ6, and not all of this funding comes from USAID. They also receive funding from the National Democratic Institute. Why isn't this conflict of interest prohibited by law? https://t.co/ogPhDVK0AH

@Eric_Schmitt - Eric Schmitt

That is why I, along with @BasedMikeLee, @TedCruz. @HawleyMO, @MarshaBlackburn, and @BernieMoreno, are taking the radical step to break our judicial selection process free from ABA control. We are excited to work with the Trump Administration & @PamBondi to put great Trump judges on our nation's courts. END
