Woman Who Tried to Recruit Assassins to Kill Trump Walks Free Days After Third Assassination Attempt

A West Virginia prosecutor dismissed charges Thursday against a librarian who allegedly tried to recruit assassins to target President Donald Trump, a local TV station reported.

Morgan L. Morrow of Ripley, West Virginia, was charged in January with one count of making a terroristic threat, the agency posted on its Facebook page. Prosecutors, though, elected to dismiss the charges “without prejudice,” Clarksburg-area TV station WDTV reported Thursday, less than a week after Trump was targeted by a would-be assassin at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

One of the videos Morrow posted featured a caption saying, “Surely a sniper with a terminal illness cannot be a big ask out of 343 million,” apparently was posted on Morrow’s Instagram, prompting Morrow’s arrest at 9:31 p.m. EDT on Jan. 25, hours after Libs of TikTok posted that video and others on X earlier that evening. However, prosecutors said in court documents that officers from the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department failed to advise Morrow of her Miranda rights, according to WDTV.

Cole Allen, a 31-year-old teacher from Torrance, California, appeared in court Monday to face charges of attempting to assassinate Trump and using a firearm while committing a violent crime.

In addition to Allen’s attempt on Saturday, two assassins targeted Trump during the 2024 presidential campaign. Trump was struck in the right ear after Thomas Crooks fired multiple shots at him during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024.

A Secret Service agent thwarted an attempt by Ryan Wesley Routh in September 2024, who was lurking near the Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida, with a rifle. Routh was sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of attempting to assassinate Trump.

The White House and Secret Service did not immediately respond to requests for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Chicago Schools to Bus Students to Anti-Trump May Day Protests Using Tax Dollars

Tomorrow on May 1st, teacher unions in Chicago have decided to once again hold ‘May Day’ protests, which will obviously be aimed at Trump and all things Republican.

As part of these protests, Chicago Schools are going to allow students to attend, and if they choose to go, they can be shuttled to the protests using tax dollars.

Aside from the fact that a significant number of students in Chicago schools can’t read at grade level, how is any of this even legal?

Using tax dollars to transport students to political protests? Where is the outrage?

This report is from PBS:

Chicago labor unions, community groups, students and other advocates are expected to participate in events around the city on Friday in recognition of May Day, also known as International Workers’ Day.

Thousands of Chicagoans are expected to participate in a May Day rally and march starting at Union Park, 1501 W. Randolph St., and ending at Daley Plaza downtown. Other related actions are scheduled in different parts of the city in the morning ahead of the march.

The main rally is expected to begin at 1 p.m. in Union Park. The march is set to step off at 2 p.m.

The expected May Day actions come after disagreements between Chicago Public Schools CEO Macquline King and the Chicago Teachers Union over whether to close schools on Friday to allow students and teachers to participate in demonstrations…

Chicago Public Schools will still hold classes on May 1 after reaching an agreement with CTU that will also allow students and staff to attend labor rallies.

The union said the school district has pledged to provide buses for field trips for students and educators who choose to attend the afternoon May Day rally in Union Park.

After Comey indictment, acting AG leaves door open to Whitmer investigation over ’86 45′

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer could face a federal investigation into an “86 45” emblem visible in the background of a virtual appearance she made several years ago.

The term 86 is slang used in the restaurant industry to signal something should be removed, like a menu item that’s out of stock or a disorderly person in a bar. President Donald Trump is the 45th and 47th president.

The Justice Department secured an indictment Tuesday against former FBI Director James Comey over a photo he posted last year of seashells on a beach arranged to read “86 47,” which prosecutors say was meant to be a threat to Trump’s life.

Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche told reporters during a press conference Tuesday that “other instances of threats against the president of the United States … will be investigated.”

“You cannot compare,” Blanche said. “It’s not fair to the American people, it’s not fair to the defendant, and it’s certainly not fair to the prosecutors to compare, ‘well, if you did it here, why didn’t you do it there?’”

Trump’s 2020 campaign accused Whitmer of “encouraging assassination attempts” against the president by having the emblem visible in the background of a virtual appearance on “Meet the Press.”

The interview was recorded days after federal agents thwarted an alleged plot to kidnap and kill Whitmer.

When specifically asked whether Whitmer’s 2020 appearance would also be investigated, Blanche did not rule that possibility out.

“Every case is different. The facts are different. Who makes the threat matters? What the threat says matters,” Blanche said.

Democrats Always Act Surprised When One of Their Own Tries to Murder Trump

In their attempt to get President Donald Trump killed, Democrats are hitting zero. You might think that’s a glib way to put it, but how else can you explain the repeated attempts to inspire someone to kill the president and the deflated “we have to condemn all political violence” that inevitably follows? It’s performance art – they have to pretend to be shocked that someone acted on what they’d been openly hinting they’d like to have happen, because otherwise the next person might not be inspired by their rhetoric to pick up the mantle and try to finish the job.

I realize I’m a cynical person – always have been, unlikely to change – but even the most fervent optimist has to watch these Democrats and “progressive” pundits expressing shock that someone would travel across the country to try to kill the president and laugh. They’d already inspired one man to come to D.C. from the West Coast to try to murder Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh; why would anyone think they wouldn’t get another?

In fact, the only truly shocking thing about it is they couldn’t inspire one of their homegrown wanna be terrorists, or at least some leftist monster from New York, to try to do it. Maybe it’s something in the water in California? But it’s most likely just the poison ideology.

Sane people know crazy people exist. That’s why people don’t openly call for the murder of public figures (except the Democrats’ flavor of the month and Twitch’s/Amazon’s (Jeff Bezos’ company owns Twitch) Hassan Piker, who regularly calls for the murder of Republicans (that lawsuit when he succeeds is gonna be big)), because someone might act on it.

Democrats, except for people like Piker and other attention-seeking social media “influencers,” don’t actually call for murder; they hint around about it. Call someone “Hitler” and insist on MS Now, CNN, the pages of The New York Times or Washington Post (Bezos again) that they’re imposing “fascism” enough, and it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that someone might just act on it.

See, these people know Donald Trump isn’t a fascist, isn’t the second coming of Hitler, and they know he’s not a dictator – were he any of those things, they’d be dead or in prison. Moreover, they’ve always known he was never even inclined to be remotely close to any of those things because none of them – literally not one – fled the country after he won the election.

Ten years of Biden weaponization produced enemy list that makes Watergate water under the bridge

Over the past decade, a series of investigations, declassified documents and reporting appear to show a pattern of federal agencies under former President Joe Biden’s administration directing law enforcement, intelligence, and regulatory tools against political opponents, particularly President Donald Trump and his allies.

“What they did, seemingly, was to target people that they knew supported the president and that the president was talking with,” Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., whose records were obtained by the Biden DOJ, told Just The News

“You get the feeling that they had a short list or an enemies list or a target list, and while they were trying to pull him in and say it was a conspiracy, then you have to just surmise that their intent was they could surveil us and try to make us coconspirators.” 

The list of targets also includes conservative private citizens, pro-life activists and parents. While roots of the weaponization trace to 2016-era Russia collusion inquiries during Biden’s vice presidency, the pattern intensified after 2021 with Biden as president, with directives that appeared to lower investigative thresholds and prioritized ideological targets. 

A June 2021 National Security Council strategic plan, declassified in 2025, explicitly authorized the DOJ, FBI, DHS, and other agencies to monitor “concerning non-criminal behavior” tied to domestic terrorism. 

It flagged conservative symbols (Gadsden flags, Second Amendment references), active-duty military personnel, gun owners, traditional Catholics, and those spreading what officials called “xenophobic” disinformation or resisting COVID policies and school curricula. Whistleblowers described how this led to FBI probes of school-board parents and pro-life networks, while ignoring comparable left-wing activity.  

The Biden administration also unevenly applied the FACE Act – a federal law prohibiting the use of force, threat of force, or physical obstruction to injure, intimidate, or interfere with anyone obtaining or providing reproductive health services, including abortion, or exercising religious freedom at a place of worship.

A DOJ review found prosecutors collaborated with abortion-rights groups to track pro-life demonstrators’ travel and advocacy, withheld exculpatory evidence, and imposed average prison terms of nearly 27 months on pro-life defendants—more than double those given to pro-abortion violators. 

Federal funding flowed to state-level efforts against Trump. 

In 2022, the Biden DOJ invited Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to apply for a $2 million sole-source grant under a community-violence program while she built her election-interference case against Trump and coordinated with the White House and House January 6 investigators. Willis’s office won the grant and ultimately in total received more than $18 million in DOJ grants during the prosecution.

Also in 2022, the FBI opened its “Arctic Frost” probe into Trump’s alternate-electors strategy, which targeted nearly 400 Trump associates and conservative groups on thin predication, according to internal memos and Senate records. An anti-Trump FBI supervisor, Timothy Thibault, drove the case by circulating liberal media claims, echoing the earlier Crossfire Hurricane pattern.

Federal Prosecutors to Seize Comey’s Book Sale Profits

Federal prosecutors will seize James Comey’s book sale profits after he was indicted on two felony counts on charges related to his Trump assassination Instagram post.

The Justice Department issued a forfeiture notice because prosecutors believe Comey posted the ’86 47′ Trump threat to help with sales of his forthcoming book, “Red Verdict.”

“Upon conviction, the defendant shall forfeit to the United States any property, real or personal, which constitutes or is derived from proceeds traceable to the said offense,” the indictment read.

James Comey posted his threatening ‘8647’ Instagram post shortly before his book launch last May.

Jimmy Kimmel Invents an Outrageous Lie While Defending His Cruel Assassination ‘Joke’ About the President and First Lady

ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel came up with one of the most pathetic lies imaginable while deciding to defend his wicked joke about President Trump.

As The Gateway Pundit’s Kristinn Taylor reported, Kimmel previously made an assassination joke about First Lady Melania Trump and her husband President Donald Trump, saying she looked like an “expectant widow.”

This happened just two days before another deranged terrorist tried to take out the president.

“And of course, our first lady, Melania, is here. Look at Mel, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow,” Kimmel said during a mock White House Correspondent’s dinner last week.

“You know, Melania’s birthday is on Sunday,” he added. “That’s right. She’s uh, planning to celebrate at home the same way she always does, looking out a window and whispering, “What have I done?”

“As you’re all aware, Melania is a movie star now. Her documentary had a score of 10% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is a website named after her husband’s testicles.”

This ‘joke’ generated such widespread outrage that both the President and First Lady issued scathing statements condemning Kimmel. President Trump also called on ABC to fire the alleged ‘comedian.’

On Monday night, Kimmel not only defended his sick words, but astoundingly claimed that he was just talking about Donald and Melania’s age difference.

Is that the best lie he could come up with?

“It was a very light roast joke about the fact that he’s almost 80 and she’s younger than I am,” Kimmel fibbed. “It was not by any stretch of the definition a call to assassination. And they know that.”

“I’ve been very vocal for many years speaking out against gun violence, in particular,” he continued. “But I understand that the First Lady had a stressful experience over the weekend and probably every weekend is pretty stressful in that house?”

Reporter Declared “I Hope They KILL The Orange MF” During Trump Assassination Attempt

A female reporter at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner openly hoped the gunman would assassinate President Trump, saying “I hope they kill the orange MF” as shots rang out and attendees dove for cover, according to a Congressman who was also present.

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) revealed the shocking moment from inside the room during the latest attempt on Trump’s life.

“There was a reporter in the room who was under a table, and when the shots went off, and everybody’s hiding, she said, ‘I hope they kill the orange MF,’” Ogles recounted. “That was a journalist in the room, who was hoping that when she stood up, the President of the United States would be dead,” he urged.

The revelation comes as 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen faces charges for storming the event armed with multiple weapons. One officer was shot but saved by his vest. Trump and officials were safely evacuated.

This incident fits a clear pattern of radicalization. As we detailed, leftists openly expressed disappointment that Trump survived the attempt on his life, while the shooter’s own tweets mirrored Democratic rhetoric.

FCC Launches UNPRECEDENTED REVIEW OF ABC Stations After Kimmel’s “Expectant Widow” Jab

The federal government is cracking down on ABC’s broadcast licenses in direct response to Jimmy Kimmel’s latest vile comments, this time on First Lady Melania Trump. 

The FCC, under Trump appointee Brendan Carr, is directing eight Disney-owned TV stations to file early license renewals tied explicitly to Kimmel’s “expectant widow” monologue that he may have gotten away with had an assassination attempt against Trump not occurred on the same day.

White House Communications Director Steven Cheung was forthright In a post on X, declaring “Jimmy Kimmel is a shit human being for: Making a disgusting joke about assassinating the President. Doubling down on that joke instead of doing the decent thing by apologizing. ABC needs to fire him immediately and he should be shunned for the rest of his life.”

The controversy erupted after Kimmel, during a skit on his show last Thursday portraying himself as master of ceremonies for the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, told Melania Trump: “Mrs Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.”

The Latest Trump Assassination Attempt, How Media Narratives Fuel Violence

The April 25, 2026 attack at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner was the fifth documented attempt against President Donald Trump in less than a decade. The first, largely forgotten by the media, came in 2016, when Michael Steven Sandford attempted to seize an officer’s weapon at a Trump rally in Las Vegas.

The most widely remembered was Thomas Matthew Crooks opening fire at the Butler, Pennsylvania rally on July 13, 2024, killing one rallygoer and grazing Trump’s ear, producing the iconic photograph of Trump raising his fist and shouting “Fight, fight, fight.” Between the fourth and fifth attempts on the president’s life, conservative Christian commentator Charlie Kirk was assassinated while engaging students in open dialogue on a university campus.

The media enabled violence against both men through sustained false framing. Trump was portrayed for years as a Russian asset and a threat to democracy. Using out-of-context quotes and selective framing, the media painted Kirk as a racist and a homophobe. Some on the left called for the deaths of both men and celebrated when Kirk was killed.

The media campaign against Trump began before his first election. On September 23, 2016, reports surfaced that U.S. authorities were investigating Trump campaign figure Carter Page for possible ties to Russian influence operations. This was the first public story directly linking a Trump associate to Russia. Fusion GPS, the opposition-research firm hired by the Clinton campaign, had directed Christopher Steele to share his findings with the media as early as mid-September 2016, weeks before the election.

On October 7, 2016, DHS and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper issued a public statement attributing the hacking of Democratic officials and the WikiLeaks releases to Russian intelligence acting to benefit Trump. On January 10, 2017, BuzzFeed published the Steele dossier in full, the same day Jeff Sessions’s confirmation hearing began, triggering wall-to-wall media saturation of the Russia narrative. The FBI’s own investigation, Crossfire Hurricane, had been formally opened on July 31, 2016, though the Durham Report later concluded it lacked an adequate factual basis.

The Russia narrative, the claim that Trump was a foreign-installed puppet being blackmailed by Vladimir Putin, ran for Trump’s entire first term and shaped two impeachment proceedings. The Mueller Report found no evidence of criminal conspiracy. The Durham Report concluded the FBI launched its investigation without an adequate factual basis and applied a double standard not applied to the Clinton campaign. The narrative collapsed only after nearly three years of continuous coverage built on material that, as Durham confirmed, lacked a factual foundation from the start.

Despite Russiagate collapsing, the media still runs with it from time to time, ostensibly on slow news days. However, Trump’s second term has been more acutely shaped by media framing him as a tyrant and a threat to democracy. The Intercept ran a 2024 piece arguing Trump “represents an existential threat to democracy” and that the warning “must be repeated, over and over again.” NPR aired a segment in which a political scientist argued the press had an “obligation” to cover Trump as a threat to democracy in the same way it covers climate change, with no opposing view presented.
