For every terror attack by a transgender leftist or Antifa militant that you hear about in the news, there’s many attacks that you don’t hear about. The establishment media has been very careful to obscure these incidents with ambiguous reporting, denials and outright lies.
For example, Nicholas Roske, the man who attempted to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2022, identifies as transgender. This fact has been quickly buried by the media, just as the man’s political affiliations were ignored at the time of his arrest. Though, Wikipedia was very quick to change Roske’s gender and refer to him as “her” on their Brett Kavanaugh assassination plot page.
At the time, the media complained that the event could lead to legal actions removing protesters from outside the homes of judges (leftist groups were attempting to intimidate the Supreme Court over their decision to overturn Roe v Wade). They also focused more on the abortion decision, insinuating that it was the Supreme Court’s fault if members faced assassination threats. Democrats stalled on passing a bill that provided more security for SC Justices; the Kavanaugh incident finally forced them to take action.
There have been numerous leftist and Antifa related terror incidents over the past several years, most of them barely mentioned by mainstream journalists and few of them categorized as political terrorism by organizations like the ADL. Whenever an attack involving any suspect who is remotely right wing occurs, the news is flooded with coverage.
In the case of alleged Charlie Kirk shooter, Tyler Robinson, the media continues to deny that the gay leftist is associated with leftist causes. Even going so far as to misinform the public and attempt to tie the man to MAGA, despite his family and friends admitting he is a leftist.
This trend of hiding reality continues with the recent sentencing of Casey Robert Goonan, who was convicted in January 2025 after pleading guilty to one count of maliciously damaging or destroying property used in or affecting interstate commerce by means of fire or an explosive. The story has garnered minimal attention on the news feeds.
