Radical Leftists Threaten to ‘Bird Dog’ Conservatives at Home, Church
Radical leftists plotting to stop former President Donald Trump from winning re-election in 2024 recently came to Washington, DC, to stage a rally and intimidate staffers for a conservative think tank working on plans to join his prospective administration should Trump win.
The rally took place steps away from the Capitol in front of the main office of the Heritage Foundation, which has been working on “Project 2025,” a plan to staff a prospective Republican administration as well as counter the left’s influence in federal government by recruiting more conservative employees.
One of the activists speaking at the rally on Saturday was captured on video threatening to harass staffers at their homes and churches.
“We need to go find out where they live, where they go to church, who they hang around with, and bird dog they asses.” Cheering and a reply of “Hell yeah!” could be heard in the video.
The rally also marked the formal launch of a non-profit organization the far-left activists are calling “Stop The Coup 2025.” The organization claims on its website to be “nonpartisan” but is aimed squarely at preventing Trump’s re-election, and resisting his administration should they fail.
The coalition behind the effort include an amalgam of radical groups The Center for Popular Democracy, Human Rights Campaign, CPD Action, Vocal New York, and Rise and Resist.
The groups held a town hall on December 17 at the LGBT Center in Manhattan that was co-hosted by longtime radical leftist activists Anne-christine d’Adesky and Jay W. Walker, a New York anti-fascist, or “antifa,” organizer.
Organizers of the rally used typical leftist inflammatory language that could potentially endanger Heritage Foundation staffers’ safety. For example, an Instagram post by one of the organizers of the rally said:
“Our message: No Day One Dictator! Stop Project 2025! The Heritage Foundation is Hazardous! In one year, the GOP plans to install a Day One Dictator and dismantle our democracy. Help launch a year-long campaign of action against Project 2025.
The post added, “There are still a few seats on the bus from the NYC LGBT Center to DC on Saturday morning!”
Another organizer posted that the purpose of the rally was to “bring public and media attention to the threat to US democracy that the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 represents.” The organizer said:
Our goal is to increase the attention mainstream media pays to Project 2025’s goal of dismantling our US system of government, reinforcing white supremacy, erasing the LGBTQ community, women’s rights, labor, immigration and other rights, and urge Americans to sound the alarm and vote against this dangerous GOP platform in November,” the organizer wrote.
The “Stop The Coup 2025″ coalition is only one part of a vast and well-funded network of radical far-left organizations who have worked since Hillary Clinton’s failed bid for the White House in 2016 to stymie Trump’s presidency, according to Jessico Bowman, a northeast Florida-based conservative grassroots activist who has extensively researched the effort and the groups behind it.
“The radical left is putting on full display their anxiety for a Trump victory in 2024. Significant effort is being placed on building out and organizing for a revamp of the ‘Stop the Coup’ and ‘Resistance Movements’ for an anticipated 2025 inauguration of Donald J. Trump as the 47th President,” Jessico said in a statement to Breitbart News.

“The Heritage Foundation’s ‘Project 2025’ has the radical left even more freaked out than the realization that Hillary Clinton was not elected President in 2016 and that Donald Trump was the 45th President. The left’s brazen coordination and language threatening supporters of Donald Trump and their hate for a presidential candidate should concern all Americans,” Bowman, who is also the secretary of the libertarian-leaning Republican Liberty Caucus, added.
Breitbart News’s Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyle featured Bowman’s research in a recent article that exposed the depth of the network behind the “Stop the Coup 2025” effort.
As highlighted by Boyle, this radical network known as the Democracy Alliance now dominates the left and influences Democrat messaging all the way up to the White House. He wrote:
For years, this network of leftists grew from a powerful vast left-wing conspiracy unmasked a decade ago into now being the dominating force on the left determined to stop Trump at all costs. What’s more, these leftists clearly control what top Democrats are saying, forcing their leaders to adopt their narrative. They even regularly openly brag about controlling what the sitting President of the United States says, taking credit for Democrat President Joe Biden’s dark reelection campaign messaging, where Biden has warned of ‘MAGA extremists’ on the rise.
…
The level of influence and control that this leftist network has over elected officials is essentially unprecedented in world history. Everyone from the sitting president of the United States to top law enforcement officials at the federal, state, and local level to leading Democrats in Congress and in states around the country are using these leftists’ playbook and talking points, following them close to verbatim. Nothing remotely like it exists on the right in U.S. politics, and never before has there been such a sophisticated leftist structure in control of at least half of American discourse in a presidential election year.
As Breitbart News highlighted, the titular head of the leftist network is a group named “Indivisible.” The group started in the aftermath of Clinton’s loss by two Democrat Senate staffers who are also husband and wife Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg, and is now backed by leftist billionaires seeking to push their leftist agenda in the halls of power.
Indivisible is backed by George Soros, Reid Hoffman — who is currently funding E. Jean Carroll’s lawsuit against Trump and was funding the super PAC for Nikki Haley’s presidential bid until she lost the Republican primary in New Hampshire, as well as other donors such as San Francisco mortgage billionaire Herbert Sandler, New York real estate heiress Patricia Bauman, and oil heiress Leah Hunt-Hendrix.
The group has raised nearly $6 million since its inception in late 2016 . In addition to an office in D.C., which has a staff of about 40 people, it has more than 6,000 volunteer chapters across the country.

The New York Times‘ Ken Vogel wrote in an October 2017 piece about the left’s resistance to Trump, “Perhaps no group epitomizes the differences between the legacy left and the grass-roots resistance like Indivisible.”
As Bowman recently told Breitbart News, “Indivisible won over the Democracy Alliance in 2017”:
Indivisible took a well-funded, yet disorganized, Democracy Alliance, and transformed its left wing spiderweb into a well-organized and powerful specialized network. This allowed for independence, strict adherence to communication guidelines, and dependence on network leaders to bridge the gap. The Alliance organizations focus on their individual specialties such as climate change, banning assault weapons, et cetera, while remaining networked to the entire spider web and having grassroots activists ready to mobilize. Funding flows from various deep pocketed liberal passthrough charitable organizations and membership based funding organizations. The organizations also pass money to each other. Indivisible serves as both a network manager and a grassroots organization structure for these organizations.
Indivisible has taken credit for both of Trump’s impeachments and the left’s current lawfare against him, or the weaponization of the justice system to target, harass, and attempt to disqualify him from the ballot.
In early 2023, the group outlined its 2024 strategy in a manifesto titled, “A Practical Guide to Defeating MAGA.” The document was one of the first places on the left to use the terms “authoritarianism” to describe Republicans and Trump, and reads like a script for what President Joe Biden would later say in speeches about “MAGA Republicans” and their “extremism.”
In fact, Levin — the co-founder of Indivisible — gloated in an X post that Biden was using the group’s messaging. He posted earlier this month, after Biden’s Valley Forge speech earlier this month.
“Biden is running an ‘It’s the extremism, stupid’ campaign, and I am here for it. It’s not where Dems started in 2022, but it is where they ended up – and it worked out spectacularly. Biden/Harris have internalized that lesson, and they’re re-running the successful play,” Levin wrote.

Man who admittedly destroyed Satanic shrine in Iowa’s capitol building slapped with a ‘hate crime’ charge
In the words of Javier Milei, “You can’t give sh*t leftists a single millimeter.” Here’s why, by the AP via Washington Times:
Man accused of destroying Satanic Temple display at Iowa Capitol is now charged with hate crime
A Mississippi man accused of destroying a statue of a pagan idol at Iowa’s state Capitol is now being charged with a hate crime.
The statue was brought to the Capitol by the Satanic Temple of Iowa under state rules allowing religious displays in the building during the holidays.
…
On Dec. 14, the figure depicting the horned deity Baphomet was ‘destroyed beyond repair,’ according to the group.
…
Polk County prosecutors have charged Cassidy with a more serious offense, the Des Moines Register reported. A document made public Tuesday charged him with felony third-degree criminal mischief. It alleges the act was committed ‘in violation of individual rights’ under Iowa’s hate crime statute.
‘Evidence shows the defendant made statements to law enforcement and the public indicating he destroyed the property because of the victim’s religion,’ Lynn Hicks, a spokesman for the Polk County Attorney’s Office, said in a statement.
First of all… “destroyed beyond repair”? The “statue” looked like a high schooler’s art project, a hodgepodge of materials gleaned from craft bargain bins, and it was stuffed with plastic garbage bags; give me a break.
Yet, there’s a major, and politically-motivated flaw in the prosecutor’s argument: The Satanic Temple website openly admits that the organization does not worship Satan, nor does it “believe” in his existence, or even, “the supernatural.” Additionally, they make a point of notating their “non-theistic and non-supernaturalist” views.
Yet worship, and belief in a god (or the supernatural) is what defines religion, at least in the legally-protected sense. Here’s this, from the Cambridge Dictionary:
[T]he belief in and worship of a god or gods, or any such system of belief and worship[.]
And from Merriam-Webster:
[T]he service and worship of God or the supernatural[;] commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance[.]
To echo Milei, don’t give these people an inch.
If you do you’ll live in an America where “sh*t leftists” have a “right” to butcher babies “at any time, for any reason,” but praying and hymn-singing outside an abortion mill gets you a prison sentence.
If you do, you’ll live in an America where “sh*t leftists” can topple statues of the Founding Fathers with impunity, but smashing idols in state houses earns you a “hate crime” charge.
If you do, you’ll live in an America where “sh*t leftists” are allowed to set up shop on public property, but symbols of reconciliation and American heritage must be removed from public view.
If you do, you’ll live in an American where “sh*t leftists” can find legal protections as pseudo-satanists, but Christians are prosecuted and jailed for worshiping without a mask on, or holding legitimate church services during dictatorial lockdowns.
If you do, you’ll live in an America where “sh*t leftists” can erect shrines to Baphomet in capitol buildings, but the God of the Founders becomes He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.
Oh, wait....
Michael Cassidy is a hero, God bless him.
IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THIS SICK COUNTRY!
Hate Crime: Christian Navy Veteran Charged for Tearing Down Satan Statue in Iowa Capitol
A Christian U.S. Navy veteran has been charged with a hate crime after admitting to beheading the Satanic Temple’s statue on display at the Iowa State Capitol in December.
Michael Cassidy was initially charged with misdemeanor criminal mischief on December 15, but the Polk County Attorney’s Office indicated that the Mississippi man’s admission that he “destroyed the property because of the victim’s [the Satanic Temple] religion” prompted the charges to be upgraded to “third-degree criminal mischief in violation of individual rights, a class D felony.”
The cost to repair or replace the damaged Satan statue would be between $750 and $1,500, prosecutors said.
“The Polk County Attorney’s Office seeks fair and just resolutions of all cases, as we continue to apply the law equally to all, regardless of religion, race, sexual orientation, or economic status,” officials added.
The retired military officer originally made headlines after tearing down and removing the head from the statue.
Cassidy told the Sentinel at the time that he destroyed the statue to “awaken Christians to the anti-Christian acts promoted by our government”:
“The world may tell Christians to submissively accept the legitimization of Satan, but none of the founders would have considered government sanction of Satanic altars inside Capitol buildings as protected by the First Amendment,” Cassidy said. “Anti-Christian values have steadily been mainstreamed more and more in recent decades, and Christians have largely acted like the proverbial frog in the boiling pot of water.”

Police arrested Cassidy after he turned himself in to officers present in the building.
“I saw this blasphemous statue and was outraged,” the veteran said. “My conscience is held captive to the word of God, not to bureaucratic decree. And so I acted.”
Cassidy is set to be arraigned on February 15.
The statue was on public display in the Iowa Capitol building, about 100 feet from a Christmas tree, according to KCCI.
“It was permitted by rules that govern religious installations inside the Capitol,” the outlet reported.
Satanic Temple co-founder Lucien Greaves said at the time that the statue was a symbol for religious freedom.
“We’re going to really relish the opportunity to be represented in a public forum. We don’t have a church on every street corner,” Greaves said. “My feeling is if people don’t like our display in public forums, they don’t have to engage with them. They don’t have to view them.”
Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds (R) came under fire for allowing such a statue in the state’s legislative building, though she responded by calling the display “absolutely objectionable.”
“Like many Iowans, I find the Satanic Temple’s display in the Capitol absolutely objectionable,” Reynolds said in a statement. “In a free society, the best response to objectionable speech is more speech, and I encourage all those of faith to join me today in praying over the Capitol and recognizing the nativity scene that will be on display – the true reason for the season.”
