How to Become a Good Communist

Posted on | September 27, 2025 | Comments Off on How to Become a Good Communist

JoAnne Deborah Byron, a/k/a JoAnne Chesimard, a/k/a Assata Shakur was a Communist, a murderer and a terrorist. She was still a fugitive from justice when she died Thursday in Havana, Cuba:

Cuban officials on Friday said that Joanne Chesimard, who was convicted of killing a New Jersey state trooper, has died in Havana decades after breaking out of prison and escaping to the communist island.
Cuba’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that Chesimard, who was born JoAnne Deborah Byron and was also known as Assata Olugbala Shakur, passed away after living there for years under asylum granted by the Cuban government.
“On September 25, 2025, American citizen Joanne Deborah Byron, ‘Assata Shakur,’ passed away in Havana, Cuba, due to health conditions and advanced age,” the ministry’s statement said.
In 1977, Chesimard was convicted of the murder of State Trooper Werner Foerster, who left behind a wife and 3-year-old son, during a shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1973.
In 1977, she was found guilty of first-degree murder, armed robbery, and other crimes and was sentenced to life in prison. She escaped from prison in 1979 and lived underground before surfacing in Cuba in 1984.
The FBI and the New Jersey attorney general each offered a $1 million reward for her capture.
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy and New Jersey State Police Superintendent Colonel Patrick Callahan said they spoke with Secretary of State Marco Rubio about Chesimard’s reported passing.
“For years, we have worked with the State Department to bring Chesimard back to New Jersey, so she could face justice for the cold-blooded murder of an American hero,” both said in a joint statement. “Sadly, it appears she has passed without being held fully accountable for her heinous crimes.”
“We mourn Trooper Foerster’s loss every day, and we extend our deepest sympathies to his widow, Rosie, their son, Eric, and the entire New Jersey State Police family,” they added. “Unlike his killer, Trooper Foerster never had a chance to live out his days in peace. But we remain fully committed to honoring his memory and sacrifice. We will vigorously oppose any attempt to repatriate Chesimard’s remains to the United States.”
Chesimard, who regarded herself as a godmother and step-aunt to late rapper Tupac Shakur, was added to the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists List in 2013.
She was a member of the Black Liberation Army, which the FBI describes as “one of the most violent militant organizations of the 1970s.”

Given the extraordinary craziness of our own era, with political violence rampant and apparently increasing, many people have forgotten how crazy things were in the 1970s. Back when I was in middle school and high school, you had all kinds of wacky radicals running around. The nation had gone through a series of crises — the drama of the Civil Rights Era, the assassination of JFK, the Vietnam War, etc. — and a lot of people couldn’t handle the stress and just lost their minds.

You had the Manson Gang murders in 1969, then the Weather Undeground bombers, the Patty Hearst kidnapping and the Symbionese Liberation Army, and let’s not forget the Peoples Temple and Jonestown. It was during that decade-long national nervous breakdown that JoAnn Chesimard assumed the moniker “Assata Shakur” and decided that the Black Panthers weren’t radical enough for her tastes.

The Black Liberation Army (BLA) emerged as an ultra-violent splinter of the Panthers, in association with other black radicals, spewing Marxist-Leninist jargon as a pretext for killing cops and committing robberies. “According to a Justice Department report on BLA activity, the Black Liberation Army was suspected of involvement in over 70 incidents of violence between 1970 and 1976. The Fraternal Order of Police blamed the BLA for the murders of 13 police officers.” Arguably the most infamous of their crimes was the 1981 Brinks robbery in Nyack, New York, where BLA members joined forces with Weather Underground radicals calling themselves the May 19th Communist Organization. In the Nyack robbery, this radical gang killed Brinks guard Peter Paige and police officers Edward O’Grady and Waverly Brown.

Police on scene after the Brinks robbery, 1981

By the time of the 1981 Brinks robbery, “Assata Shakur” had already been convicted of murder, escaped from prison and fled the country, apparently going first to Mexico before eventually ending up in Cuba. She was among dozens of American fugitives harbored by the Communist regime in Cuba. In June 2017, during President Trump’s first term, he called for Cuba to extradite her. Jordan Schactel wrote at that time:

Chesimard has become a folk hero among the fringe Left. Because of her background in far-left activism, some in movements like Black Lives Matter see her as a hero, and not the terrorist cop-killer that she really is.
The Black Liberation Army, which rose to prominence in the 1970s, was known for its ruthless methods. In one incident showcasing their carnage, three BLA militants killed two NYPD officers in the East Village. But that wasn’t the worst part. The assailants stood over the officers and continued to shoot into their bodies repeatedly.
By 1973, Shakur was the subject of a multi-state manhunt. The FBI labeled her the “revolutionary mother hen” of the cell that had carried out the murders of NYPD officers. Later that year, Shakur bolted New York City with fellow BLA members.
On her escape down the New Jersey turnpike, she was pulled over by state troopers. At that time, her accomplice, Zayd Shakur, was killed in a gunfire battle. A police officer was also killed in the incident, with help from Chesimard, who again sped away in her vehicle
But ultimately, she was captured sitting on the side of the highway after being wounded in the gun battle.
In 1977, Chesimard was charged with murder and convicted of firing the shots that killed New Jersey state trooper Werner Foerster. She was also convicted of seven other felonies. She was sentenced to life in prison plus thirty years for her crimes.

Ruthless cop-killer, “folk hero.” We could extend this with a detailed examination of the cause-and-effect puzzle of left-wing craziness — do these radical movements just act as a magnet for psychopaths, or does radicalism turn otherwise ordinary people into dangerous lunatics? But let’s not belabor the point. At any rate, there’s only one kind of good Communist and it’s the kind that “Assata Shakur” has now become.

‘Revenge for What, Brian?’

Posted on | September 26, 2025 | Comments Off on ‘Revenge for What, Brian?’

The coverage on CNN — and all the other mainstream media — frames the story the same way: Former FBI Director James Comey was indicted by a grand jury because of “Trump’s revenge.” The context of what Comey actually did is an afterthought, if mentioned at all, and the accusation of perjury and obstruction is treated as if were just commonplace for senior government officials to lie under oath and attempt to conceal evidence. Oh, and this was five years ago, they emphasize, without even a hint of recollection about what year it was that E. Jean Carroll claims she got raped in the dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman — The Crime of the Century, but not this century. Anyway . . .

There are times when memes are the best weapons.

Dallas ICE Shooter’s Motive: ‘Terror’

Posted on | September 25, 2025 | Comments Off on Dallas ICE Shooter’s Motive: ‘Terror’

He’s dead, but his motive is no longer in doubt:

A gunman who meticulously planned an ambush on a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility killed 1 detainee and injured 2 others before taking his own life in what federal officials called an act of terrorism aimed at instilling fear in law enforcement.
Nancy Larson, acting U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Texas, told reporters Thursday that Wednesday’s shooting was the third violent attack or threat at ICE facilities during her four months in the role.
In the latest incident, she said 29-year-old Joshua Jahn opened fire from a rooftop before dying of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Larson added he likely acted alone.
Investigators said video from around 3 a.m. showed Jahn driving with a large ladder on his car, which they believe he used to climb onto the roof.
“That morning, gunshots sprayed the length of the building, the windows and law enforcement vans that were in the sally port area,” Larson said. “Detainees were struck by these bullets. One was killed, two were wounded and both of them are undergoing treatment.”
The FBI quickly processed the crime scene and executed multiple search warrants on Jahn’s devices and locations. At his residence, agents found a collection of notes.
“I want to point out that one of these notes or papers the sniper explicitly states, ‘Yes, it was just me’,” Larson said. “That statement appears to be correct at this point in the investigation.”
She said the notes included a game plan of the attack and target areas at the ICE facility. Jahn referred to ICE employees as those who show up to “collect a dirty paycheck.”
“He wrote that he intended to maximize his lethality against ICE personnel and to maximize property damage at the facility,” Larson said, adding Jahn hoped to minimize any collateral damage or injury to the detainees and innocent people.
“It’s clear from these notes that he was targeting ICE agents and ICE personnel,” she added, pointing to the “tragic” irony of detainees being injured and killed.
Larson said the writings suggest Jahn hoped his actions would give ICE agents the real terror of being gunned down, inducing constant stress in their lives. The writings also suggest he hoped his actions would terrorize ICE employees and interfere with their work, which he called “human trafficking.”
“What he did is the very definition of terrorism,” Larson said. “Again, his notes reveal, ‘Yes, it was just me and my brain,’ and he said, ‘Good luck with the digital footprint’.”
Larson added that the statement is suggested to mean Jahn deleted digital evidence from his devices. Among the papers retrieved, she said, was a handwritten note in which Jahn expressed hatred for the federal government using crude words.
Marcos Charles, ICE field office director of Enforcement and Removal Operations, said Jahn used ICE tracking apps designed to locate ICE officers, warning that those who create such apps put law enforcement at risk.
“It’s a casting call to invite bad actors to attack law enforcement officers. It’s no different than giving a hitman the location of their intended target. And this is exactly what we saw happen in Dallas yesterday,” Charles said.
“The media has been amplifying these apps, even as we warned them it would only lead to more attacks on law enforcement. We truly wish we didn’t have to say ‘I told you so,’ but here we are.”

The FBI director: “One of the handwritten notes recovered read, ‘Hopefully this will give ICE agents real terror, to think, “is there a sniper with AP [armor-piercing] rounds on that roof?”‘ Further accumulated evidence to this point indicates a high degree of pre-attack planning.”

J.D. Vance on Shooting at Dallas ICE Facility: ‘It Is Time to Stop the Rhetorical Assault on Law Enforcement’

Posted on | September 25, 2025 | Comments Off on J.D. Vance on Shooting at Dallas ICE Facility: ‘It Is Time to Stop the Rhetorical Assault on Law Enforcement’

A 29-year-old lunatic named Joshua Jahn — a criminal, a drug addict and, perhaps not coincidentally, a Democratic primary voter — opened fire on an ICE facility in Dallas early Wednesday morning. The attack killed two immigrant detainees and wounded a third; Jahn committed suicide before he could be apprehended. It appears that the detainees were in the line of fire because they were inside an ICE van that Jahn shot into blindly. “Anti-ICE” slogans were found on shell casings at the scene.

It so happened that Vice President J.D. Vance was scheduled to speak Wednesday in Concord, North Carolina. The recent murder of Iryna Zarutska in Charlotte has made public safety a major issue in next year’s U.S. Senate campaign in North Carolina, where the leading candidates are Michael Whatley on the Republican side and former Gov. Roy Cooper for Democrats. Anyway, J.D. Vance just lit ’em up:

“In Dallas, Texas, an ICE facility, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility, was opened fire upon by a violent left-wing extremist, a person who wrote anti-ICE messaging on their bullets. And there’s some evidence that we have that’s not yet public, but we know this person was politically motivated. They were politically motivated to go after law enforcement. They were politically motivated to go after people who are enforcing our border and I think that is the most disgusting thing. The very people who keep us safe ought to be honored and protected and praised by Democrats and Republicans alike.
“It is time to stop the rhetorical assault on law enforcement. When Democrats, like Gavin Newsom did, say that these people are part of an authoritarian government, when the left-wing media lies about what they’re doing, when they lie about who they’re arresting, when they lie about the actual job of law enforcement, what they’re doing is encouraging crazy people to go and commit violence. You don’t have to agree with my immigration policies. You don’t have to agree with Donald Trump’s immigration policies, but if your political rhetoric encourages violence against our law enforcement, you can go straight to hell, and you have no place in the political conversation of the United States of America. . . .
“If you want to stop political violence, stop attacking our law enforcement as the Gestapo. If you want to stop political violence, stop telling your supporters that everybody who disagrees with you is a Nazi. If you want to stop political violence, look in the mirror.”

It’s about time somebody said it.
