As Americans are stunned by the third assassination attempt on President Donald Trump’s life in three years, video has emerged of a Democrat in Congress calling for the “elimination of the president of the United States … right now.”
Actor and political activist James Woods shared the clip of U.S. Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, D-N.J., saying earlier this month: “If we wanted to eliminate abuse and fraud, we’d eliminate the president of the United States from the office right now and the rest of the sycophants in his administration that are allowing him to so so many illegal things.”

JUST A FEW DAYS AGO. TRUMP WAS THREATENED BY DEMS AGAIN.

On Sunday morning, Watson Coleman posted: “Grateful for the swift work of Secret Service and thankful that the agent who was hurt has been released from the hospital.
“Political violence as a symptom of a democracy in crisis. We must return to a place where people can respect the process, even if they don’t get their preferred outcome.”

On April 13, the New Jersey Democrat claimed the president has a “messiah complex,” indicating: “Trump’s recent statements have led many to question whether he’s suffering from cognitive decline. Trump routinely cites his doctors who say he’s in perfect health. But his doctors have a history of outrageous statements and are on his payroll. … This messiah complex is a national security threat.”
In the moments after Saturday night’s shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, Woods noted: “Of course, the usual suspects are lamenting that President Trump wasn’t assassinated tonight. If, God forbid, their morbid wishes ever come true, the quiet civil war they are waging will backfire on them. And when the real shooting starts, it will be a terrible sight to behold.”
California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, reacted to the shooting, saying: “Relieved everyone at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is safe tonight based on initial reports. A free press is foundational to our country. Violence is never acceptable.”
Woods replied directly to Newsom, saying: “Oh, please shut your lying cake hole. You’ve done nothing but promote hatred against this president every day of your filthy worthless life.”

Woods then shared a commentary on X by Saggezza Eterna, who said: “EVERY DEMOCRAT WANTS YOU DEAD. EVERY ONE.”
Every single one of them harbors this desire. They leave the physical act of pulling the trigger to others. The moment the bullet finds its mark, the masks drop and the celebration begins. “For the common good.” “To protect our democracy.” These are the same blood-soaked incantations they have recited since 2016.
They will claim violence has no place in our politics while immediately pivoting to label MAGA as the real threat. The translation is clear. Your death is an unfortunate necessity demanded by the Republic.
This represents the logical endpoint of a decade-long campaign of demonization. They call Trump Hitler. They label MAGA a cult. They equate border enforcement with racism and election skepticism with insurrection. Every institution they control from the media and academia to the DOJ and Big Tech has spent years programming their followers to view conservatives strictly as vermin. When the vermin start dying, the faithful refuse to mourn. They meme. They ratio. They trend phrases like “one down, millions to go.”
History is littered with regimes that spoke in the language of the common good while stacking bodies. The Jacobins, the Bolsheviks, and the Red Guards all began with noble rhetoric and ended with mass graves. The modern American Left has simply updated the vocabulary to weaponize terms like equity, sustainability, and the idea that democracy dies in darkness. It is the exact same meat grinder operating under new branding.
Their rhetoric is its merciless clarity. It destroys the comfortable illusion of equal culpability between both sides. One side argues policy. The other side argues that your existence is a hate crime. There is no negotiating with that level of hostility. Reaching across the aisle is impossible when the opposition views the aisle itself as a moral obscenity.
The path forward requires us to stop pretending. We must stop apologizing for noticing reality. We must stop ceding the moral high ground to people who cheer when we bleed. The shooting tonight is Exhibit A in the case for political realism. They want us erased. We want to win. Only one of those goals is compatible with survival.
I couldn’t have said it more succinctly or more passionately. I will, therefore, share these words with you. https://t.co/APPbApbCSG
