Many of us openly condemn President Joe Biden‘s rhetoric accusing conservatives of being “extremists” and a danger to the country as likely prompting and even encouraging unhinged people to act with violence on those “warnings.“
And now here we are. A 41-year-old North Dakota man has reportedly admitted to running over Cayler Ellingson, an 18-year-old a teenager, explaining that the victim was part of a “Republican extremist group.”
According to a probable-cause affidavit provided to Fox News Digital, “Brandt stated that the pedestrian called some people and Brandt was afraid they were coming to get him. Brandt admitted to State Radio [a 911 dispatcher] that he hit the pedestrian and that the pedestrian was part of a Republican extremist group.” Cayler did call someone—his mother—to tell her he was being chased. She never heard from him after that.
Making matters worse, the man is already out on a paltry $50,000 bail. The New York Post reports, “The North Dakota man who has been accused of mowing down a teenager over a ‘political argument’ pleaded with the judge not to hold him on bail, saying he does not want to lose his job, house or family because of the high amount. Shannon Brandt, 41, was released on $50,000 bond Tuesday after being charged with vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of an accident in connection with the death of 18-year-old Cayler Ellingson.”
What does it say to society when people charged with simple misdemeanors like ‘parading’ and ‘trespassing’ during the January 6th riot and many are held for months, while a man allegedly committing actual murder because of someone’s political identity is already out and wandering around?
The media watched the Biden administration and knew what their orders were stepping right up perpetuating the dangerous “extremists” libel. Tom Eliot at Grabien News tweeted: “Per @GrabienMedia, just between CNN & MSNBC, Republicans have been cast as ‘extremists’ 4,997 times. CNN: 1,749 times MSNBC: 3,248 times They’ve combined for 73 hours of ‘Republican extremists’ commentary. And this is just 2022.”
And it doesn’t stop there. After Liz Cheney was removed from Republican House leadership in 2021, a USA Today columnist headline vomited up, “After ousting Liz Cheney, Republicans prove they’re a bigger threat than 9/11 hijackers.” Sure, that will create unity and calm things down. Said no one ever.
It is clear the Democrat Party’s campaign theme reflected in their constant rhetoric and parroted by their media sycophants is to drill home the lie that Republicans are “extremists” which is not coincidentally the same euphemism we use for terrorists. These characterizations are so wide-spread and constant it has been as though the Democrats and the Biden administration especially wants there to be violence. They don’t care by whom or against whom, but boy, what an opportunity to declare more emergencies and to commandeer more power.
Cayler’s death is not the first in this trend. In June of 2017, just 5 months after President Trump took office, a Bernie Sanders supporter attempted to murder almost two dozen Republicans at a baseball field because he hated Republicans and deemed Trump a “traitor.” Rep. Steve Scalise was seriously wounded in that attack.
Kelly Paul, Senator Rand Paul’s wife, reminds us that there has indeed been a rise in political violence, and despite all the rhetoric by the Democrats that it’s been perpetrated and engineered by Republicans, actual events make it clear that it’s the left committing the atrocities. Against Republicans and Democrats alike. She tweeted:
“Since Lee Zeldin’s stabbing, a Democrat official stabbed a journalist to death and a teen Republican was murdered by a leftist. In Louisville, the mayor was assaulted and a candidate was shot by a leftist. Democrats justify the assault on my husband everyday. Evil abounds.”
So many shocking events disappeared by the liberal media. Remember someone attempting to stab Rep. Lee Zeldin in the neck during a campaign rally? Due to Democrats pro-crime and no-bail policies, that person was released on his own recognizance until finally arrested by federal authorities. Then there’s the Las Vegas locally-elected Democrat official who stabbed to death an investigative journalist who uncovered his corruption. Just recently the Democratic mayor of Louisville was sucker-punched during an event, and earlier in the year the attempted assassin of Louisville Democratic mayoral candidate was, as Fox News reported, “sprung from jail by a BLM jail fund” shelling out $100,000 in the process and has now been indicted and re-arrested by federal authorities.
How many lectures have we endured from fools like Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Democrat leadership, and their media lackies accusing Republicans, conservatives, and Trump supporters in particular of being deplorable, violent, racist, “semi-fascist,” and a danger to democracy? The nation is smeared with those lies, and the media perpetuates the fraud. The unhinged believe they have been given permission to be violent and expect to get away with it.
Of course the horrible outcome of this is exactly what the Democrats want: a more divided, more frightened, more suspicious, more unstable United States.
The Democrats, their sidekicks the Marxists, and the media think we’re idiot schmucks. They are going to receive quite the shock on November 8th when they find out we’re not. We had a hard time believing our fellow Americans would do this to us, but now we know and will not make the same mistake again. It’s too late for Cayler Ellingson, but at his young age he knew being a conservative was important. For him and all who follow, let’s not let them down.
Good article!!! It gives a trueful and honest evaluation of the state of this Nation’s Democracy. It is under attack by the hard liberal DemocRat Party (a deceitful misnomer!). Rigged elections are the only way the DemocRat Party can (with the help of a majority DemocRat Party propaganda so-called news media) gain/retain political power.
Dems WANT War day 1, see Maxine Waters 2018 speech
Violence is ok if dems are doing it, msm never calls them out for it. IMO
Most news outlets simply refuse to cover this story, because it doesn’t fit their narrative. For the few news outlets that do, some gloss over the details of the driver admitting the reason he felt justified in mowing down the teenager to authorities was because he held Republican values. I’ve personally only seen two news networks and two newpapers actually report this story with all the details.
As for the defendent, he seems to fit the usual profile of a mentally unhinged zealot, who thinks he has been given permission to do what he did after hearing all the Democrat politicians from Biden on down constantly framing anyone Republican as an enemy of the state that needs to be eliminated. So while it may have been an idiot move for the defendent in this case to make the admission he did, you have to realize that a lot of leftists feel perfectly comfortable in the fact that they are somewhat protected from real accountability for their actions by the current justice system in many parts of the country.
Since the defendent has already been released on just $50,000 bail for what amounts to at least vehicular manslaughter, if not outright murder, I would say he judged the justice system correctly. It will be interesting to see if he us allowed to plead down to some lesser charge or get off on some mental illness excuse. Ten or 20 years ago, this would have been a much more shocking story and it would have been harder to bury by the MSM. Unfortunately, the way the Democrats have been allowed to not only normalize criminal activity, but also undercut our entire system of law and order and justice in so many major cities and towns across the country, this no longer has the shock value it would have had back then.
This guy looks like a Neanderthal thug. 41 yr old man, picking on a kid?
You punk, enjoy grabbing your ankles in prison.
Being Godly is “extreme” to deviI worshipping Dems.
Put the guy in a mental ward for life. Kyle L.
Many liberals will see this politically motivated attack on a teen as encouraging proof that their propaganda demonizing MAGA people is working.
It will give them hope that enraged liberal vigilantes will brutalize and subdue MAGA nation out of existence.
After all, if no legal punishment results from attacking and killing real conservatives, why would any angry liberal not buy some guns and start shooting?
We as conservative patriotic Americans need to stand and be heard .The squeky wheel always gets greased , and danmit we need to be the loudest !! I’m to old to go off to war , but I’m ready to defend my country against the socialists,nazi’s,and DEMOCRATS that are turning this country into something VILE !! I’m just an average person that is tired of taking the shaft from liberals without grease . If elections don’t fix this soon , lock and load and pray .
The DIMMS have only hate to campaign on! They’ve totally screwed the economy, world safety, the border, and education among other things. They are for infanticide, castration of young children, fentanyl and human trafficking, and everything race-based.
They project THEIR views onto Republicans. They hate and lie and are corrupt!
Calling Paul Kersey. Revenge is a dish best served cold.
If you can not win the argument with facts and logic just kill the opponent every fascist and communist knows that.The family of a criminal received millions let’s see what happens here Justice in this country became so perverted it should be called alteration of truth dept
I heard that the fake news did not cover this tragedy. Our country is truly divided. How long are we going to sit on the sidelines and let the Dems and their criminals terrorize us?
So very sad. Can’t imagine what his family is feeling. It is a senseless act! What a tragedy.
Republicans/Magas are today’s equivalent of Europian jews in the 1930s.The irony is many liberal Jewish democrats in positions of power support what is going on and cheering that corrupt jacka** ln the WH on.Barry is behind all of it.
they describe conservatives as extremists and violent to have an excuse or justification to be like that to us.

Extreme conservative………??????
Vengeance is mine, says the Lord! In a just world the Courts would arrange the Meeting!
Citizen, we are living in a lawless time, there was more justice in the old West than we have now, America under Biden and the Democrats is in a steep decline!
Pray for America!
The Weaselcrats call Republicans extremist. Hilarious. It’s the Weaselcrats that are the Extremist, and Domestic Terrorist.
They support DESTROYING U.S. CONSTITUTION, CRIMINALS, ILLEGAL ALIENS TERRORIST INVASION, RIOTS, TERRORIST antifa, TERRORIST blm, Bailing out RIOTERS (Communist harris Bailed them out making her ineligible to run for VP), TERRORIST IRAN, COMMUNIST China, and DICTATOR Beijing biden who calls for Attacking AMERICANS.
Now, the Weaselcrats in both Congress and Senate are preparing Resolutions to keep States from not Banning Books.
The Weaselcrats don’t want you to read or learn Violating your 1st Amendment Rights.
Right now, the Weaselcrats and DICTATOR Beijing biden are working on eliminating CASH and creating ONLY DIGITAL CURRENCY where they know and CONTROL every transaction you make taking away FREE of GOVERNMENT CONTROL private and personal transactions.
FIGHT BACK. November 8, 2022, could be our LAST Election as a FREE country.

NO U.S. CONSTITUTION and
NO FREEDOMS.
And to the Silent Majority, SPEAK UP and FIGHT or be SLAVES. Cause that is the Weaselcrats NEW (liberal) WORLD ORDER and YOU will have NO WAY OUT.
Last chance. There won’t be another. NO JOKE.
This is so evil! The radical left has made a martyr out of this kid. Dumb move on their part! It’s going to bite them in the end.
Take the media’s exemption away:
Corporate media were exempted from campaign laws because government could not infringe on their 1st Amendment rights. But if the 1st Amendment defined the institutional press as the definition of press, there would be no need to exempt them from campaign law:
52 U.S. Code § 30101 – Definitions (9)(B) The term “expenditure” does not include— (i) any news story, commentary, or editorial distributed through the facilities of any broadcasting station, newspaper, magazine, or other periodical publication, unless such facilities are owned or controlled by any political party, political committee, or candidate; – law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/52/30101
if candidates and political parties have to pay for time/space in the media, then editorials have potlical value when they are published by corporate media. The “Press Exemption” created a “Royal”, “State Approved” press and insured the corporate voice retains more influence than the voice of the electorate.
Campaign laws are responsible for the corporate voice having more influence in our elections than the voice of natural persons!
To restore equal rights to citizens, federal candidates, political parties and PACs “We the People” should ask our representatives in the Senate and House to revisit the “Free All Speech Act of 2014.”

The only thing that the democRATS are good at is buying votes.Ciminal votes,illegal alien votes,and yes they are working on that,gay votes,lesbian votes,deseased votes and probably animal votes,which have been given names.
Keep score. How many Republicans have murdered Democrats, or BLM members, Antifa, or protesters, rioted, burned down buildings, ransacked stores, threatened judges. or interferred with a public speaker’s First Amendment right to be heard in the past six years?
ONLY ONE SURE AND PERMANENT WAY TO STOP THE CANCEROUS, ANTI-AMERICAN, LYING, CHEATING, libs, AND IT’S NOT THRU ELECTIONS
Pray for the patriots.
Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it.

Remember how long the 2017 Charlottesville vehicular death of a counter-protester was in the news?? And that driver wasn’t offered bail like this one. Our country is suffering from a severe double-standard of justice — based on politics!
Conservatives are the new Jews (think: WWII). It’s only going to get worse unless we find our voices and speak out…LOUDLY…against this crap!
This of course means biden has committed treason and the media is guilty of aiding and abetting murder.
Now biden needs to be in prison for the rest of his life.
If I was this a**hole, I would be watching my six, that includes the Judge who let this scumbag out!!
The Commies need to incite violence to distract people from ALL THEIR POLICY FAILURES! . . . If we respond, NO, when we respond I believe we should concentrate on the media outlets and their flunkies and then the so-called Democratic Leadership! . . . As we all know, the common Democratic Party followers are mostly stupid brain challenged imbeciles just like this article’s main character.
Thank you, Tammy Bruce, for covering this horrific tragedy. I can’t imagine the pain his friends and family are going through.
We’re waiting and we don’t pick on children. This trash needs to be history.
Let’s us all recall the hubbub over Trump accusing the media of a false narrative. How evil could he be? Fake news only happens to Republicans. Crime is crime only to Republicans, crime to Democrats is excusable because Republicans are the root cause of all evil and oppression. Democrats survive on fear mongering while Republican’s are an optimistic counter to to the constant negative banter to the Democratic Party. Which party really supports LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS?
By definition a “hate crime”. Any society is dammed that tolerates such actions. Capital murder and this man walks? God condemns such actions and the nation. Isa 30:18/ 59:4
President Trump has been crucified for allegedly inciting an “insurrection” on January 6th and the “investigation” continues plus all of the other harassment that comes his way. WHAT IS IT THAT BIDEN HAS BEEN DOING FOR THE PAST WEEKS EVERY TIME HE PICKS UP A MICROPHONE? MAGA REPUBLICANS! MAGA REPUBLICANS! MAGA REPUBLICANS! HE GETS A FREE PASS TO FOMENT PROBLEMS.
The freaking sun doesn’t shine through the clouds ALL the time! Our infrastructure would have to be updated to the tune of TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS! Who is going to pay for that? Moron climate hoaxer’s! It’s all about power, control and getting rich off the backs of the gullible! The RULING liberal globalist elites have their money invested in solar. They stand to make an additional huge fortune off our backs. Forcing us into only ONE source of energy, solar, is instituting a MONOPOLY! Where are the antitrust lawsuit’s? Our National priorities are all screwed up! We The People Are The Government and Sovereign!
If the leftist media were reporting this story it would say, “Shannon Brandt, a mostly peaceful driver, suffered damage to his vehicle by an ultra-MAGA, dangerous force”. Maxine Waters encourages others to do the same; Kamala Harris posts bail; Joe Biden encourages America continue the fight against these divisive forces.”
The parents should sue the murderer and all officials associated with this case. He didn’t want to lose his job. Too bad. So sad. You are a worthless piece of something I can’t say. I can say, there cannot and shall not be two sets of law.. One that applies to the left and one that applies to the right. Biden should be treated no differently than Trump. He should be impeached. His son should be charged for his alleged crimes. They must have the same treatment as any other person.
These democrats are pure evil lunatics. This is why I moved to a red state. Just hope their cheating ways in elections fail in the upcoming elections. Conservative values do not allow us to act in such heinous and unconscionable ways. It seems to keep us at a disadvantage. We actually care about people’s constitutional rights. When will this insanity end? Remaining optimistic despite it all. America will rise again.
“Blessed is the man (or woman) who does not walk in the counsel of the ungodly…” Psalm 1:1 (and evil is the one who does!) May the Lord comfort the Ellingson Family for this murder of their son by a madman, and may they be granted justice for their tragic loss.
Remember what democrats say is generally a lie. And what they accuse republicans of doing they have either done, are doing, or planning on doing.
I bet it was a democratic judge that let him loose, the problems this country has is that all these animals are being let out of jail and prison only to prey on the civilized people of society. The democratic leadership in this country is corrupt and things must change. November 8th 2022 will hopefully get these incompetents out of office.
I’d hate to have that on my conscious for some trivial bullshit like this, not to mention the legal consequences.
This was a hate crime. I thought hate crimes had enhanced penalties?
I live in Southern California and you can ALWAYS identify a Democrat, they’re the people STILL wearing masks! . . . Crooks and thieves are more comfortable doing so.
Typical tolerant left. I’m curious, why was the sky’s bale only 50000 although he murdered someone, and kand Kyle Rittenhouse had a 2 million dollar bill for defending himself?
