By now, most know that free speech is under threat in Great Britain. In August, Vice President J.D. Vance “raised some criticism [and] concerns about our friends on this side of the Atlantic” while in England on vacation and for official meetings. I just went back to my old college, St. Andrews in Scotland. I’d reached out to them several times since retiring from being a diplomat, and while their official responses have been polite, it’s clear they don’t want to engage too closely with an alumnus who is an outspoken conservative. But I was invited to speak by the school’s Foreign Affairs Society, a group of international relations students who don’t shy away from real conversations about Brexit, NATO, and immigration. I was told there were a few angry posts on Instagram prior to my visit. The comments were focused on my employer, The Heritage Foundation, rather than anything I had written or said. I was half hoping for a raucous demonstration at the venue, the university’s central St. Salvator’s quad, if only as publicity for my book “The Ten Woke Commandments (You Must Not Obey).” In preparation for my arrival, the Foreign Affairs Society had organized both official campus and student volunteer security. As it turned out, the protest was just two young female students holding a tiny placard that I couldn’t make out. The rest of the protesters had sensibly gone to the pub, I suspect, in firm St. Andrews tradition. The audience was polite, and their questions informed and engaging. A few days later, I spoke to graduate students under the tutelage of Professor Eric Kaufmann at the University of Buckingham. Kaufman had just published a report on the sudden decline of young people identifying as “transgender or non-binary,” with a graph that quickly went viral thanks to retweets by Elon Musk and others. I’d become aware of Kaufman way back in 2020, when he was one of the few voices in Britain challenging orthodoxy about mass migration and assimilation. My last London engagement was at the Battle of Ideas Festival, on their 20th anniversary. The event was buzzing, with hundreds of people and multiple simultaneous panels and presentations. My event was “Free Speech Under Trump,” featuring fellow panelists from Cambridge, New York, and Liverpool universities, as well Tom Slater, editor of the online outlet Spiked. The environment was wonderful. There were tables hosted by dozens of organizations, from the Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) to the Free Speech Union. Attendance leaned conservative, but everyone was welcome. The Battle of Ideas was the opposite of cancel culture—so naturally, commenters from the left hated it. One called it “a cynical brand showcase” and “a live content farm for Britain’s right-wing media ecosystem” because it featured conservative voices like GB News, the Spectator, and UnHerd. The New Statesman scathingly described attendees as either “of a certain age” or weird. On our panel, the NYU and Liverpool professors cast Trump as a threat to democracy and free speech. In the UK, as in the U.S., college faculty are overwhelmingly left-wing, so no surprise there. Dr. James Orr from Cambridge and I argued the opposite—that Trump had arrived in the nick of time to save free speech and oppose cancel culture, which had hitherto only targeted conservatives. The audience was divided in reaction and viewpoint, but at no point did anyone shout, hold up “Free Palestine” cards, or ask impertinent or obnoxious questions. The Battle of Ideas was an encouraging atmosphere of open discussion, leading me to wonder: Would such a conversation be possible in the U.S. today? I think not. First, it would have to be organized by conservatives, who are not afraid of debate and whose ideas can stand exposure to daylight and counter arguments. American Leftists seem afraid to discuss their core values with opponents. Instead, many allege mere words are violence. Rather than bringing opposing voices on campus and tackling them with better arguments, American students try to de-platform them—demonstrating a puerile fear of rhetoric. Then there’s the matter of security. The Battle had no metal detectors, and the only visible staff were young volunteers in white t-shirts. Any such event in the U.S. today would have to be locked down tight. In addition to hounding conservatives off campus before they can speak at all, our extremists on the far left have demonstrated a propensity for violence in opposition to free speech. Charlie Kirk braved the arena, and it cost him his life. At least he died with his rhetorical boots on. Britain’s free speech today is arguably most under threat from gender ideology and Islamism. The former will fade, as Kaufmann’s research shows. The latter is a growing menace that Britain, and the West as a whole, must face. In England, “Pro-Palestine” demonstrations are routine and protesters openly call for violence against Jews and Israel. Politicians in Birmingham, the nation’s second-largest city, recently banned fans of an Israeli soccer team due to the threat of violence from the local population. The fates of David Ames, Salman Rushdie, Mike Freer and others remind us what is possible. Yet giving into a sectarian heckler’s veto to appease radical sensibilities will signal Britain’s ultimate concession to a subset of immigrants’ intolerance over the national majority’s respect for free speech.

As we observe National First Responders Day, let us honor those who protect us every day—and give extra support to those with the courage to reestablish law and order while confronting defiance, violent discord, and even domestic terrorism. A coordinated, dark money-funded far-left movement is targeting and attacking one law enforcement agency in particular: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. In doing so, they’re jeopardizing the lives of ICE officers. Federal prosecutors have charged violent rioters for attacking law enforcement in urban areas across the nation. Since June, the U.S. Attorney’s Office has filed cases against 33 extremists who allegedly assaulted ICE agents and other officers at Portland’s federal immigration facility. In Chicago, five defendants were recently indicted for assaulting or resisting federal agents, including one suspect who violently dragged an ICE officer with a vehicle, sending the agent to the hospital. Authorities in Los Angeles arrested over 575 rioters after demonstrations sent the city into fiery chaos and injured at least 10 officers over the summer. A Texas court indicted the first two of 18 defendants in custody for suspected connection to a shooting at an ICE facility on terrorism charges. Amid the social and economic decay of cities like Portland, Chicago, and Los Angeles, leftist politicians created sanctuaries for aliens violating our laws. Instead of following their oath to protect their citizens, these politicians have instead protected criminals and terrorists. Now, liberal politicians not only openly defy the federal government, but they also encourage anarchy against constitutional ICE operations and even incite attacks against federal law enforcement agents. Financial records and public endorsements show that despite leftists’ claims, anti-ICE riots are heavily coordinated campaigns of anarchy and not organic acts of protest. For example, the International Anti-Fascist Defense provided bail to a group connected to the ICE facility attack in Texas on July 4th. The Trump administration stated that many of these violent attacks against ICE are connected to groups identifying themselves as Antifa, coordinated online and backed by a dark money network that funnels funds through nonprofit tax-exempt status under the guise of “community defense” or “mutual aid.” Antifa is well affiliated with national activist coalitions, Marxist organizations, and legal defense funds that also appear connected to the anti-Trump administration “No Kings” protest movement. That’s the same network that supports liberal politicians across the country. Two organizations listed as No Kings partners, Planned Parenthood Action Fund and League of Conservation Voters, endorsed Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. In Chicago, Mayor Brandon Johnson won with the support of Our Revolution and Indivisible Chicago, two groups that also participated in the No Kings mobilizations. One of the most striking examples of politicians placating anarchy is in Portland. The city approved a near $500,000 settlement to Dustin Brandon Ferreira, a reported Antifa associate, and another several hundred thousand dollar settlement to Meghan Lea Opbroek, who was left injured in an Antifa arson attempt against a local police precinct. Through these settlements, Portland has effectively made taxpayers sponsor left-wing terrorism to avoid trials. These associations are just some of many that reveal how anti-federal law enforcement agendas are embedded within the political mainstream of America’s largest sanctuary cities. The rhetoric attacking law enforcement is alarming, but the risk increases as you follow the money that sponsors this behavior. A study of political extremism in America concluded that 2025 is on track to be the most violent year of leftwing extremism in over thirty years. The pandemic years coaxed leftist positions and flagged normal behavior as dangerous. Since March 2020, liberals’ go-to political weapon has been doxxing, causing personally identifiable information to be widespread against people whose only “offense” was exercising their rights or carrying out constitutional orders. Many of the Left’s doxxing victims are federal agents—and the sharing of their personal information obstructs their ability to do their jobs. Authorities arrested John Curcio who purportedly leaked a female ICE attorney’s home address to social media and encouraged people to harass her. A grand jury indicted three women in September for following an ICE agent to his door and live streaming his address to the public. When states and municipalities declare sanctuary policies or refuse to cooperate with ICE, they’re complicit in anarchy and endangerment of law enforcement officers. On this day, we honor all first responders who now face growing threats of political violence. While liberals berate brave officers for enforcing laws most Americans support, let us continue to give our visible and vocal support to those defending Americans every day.

An Ohio judge has sentenced 34-year-old Bionca Ellis to life in prison without parole over the fatal stabbing of 3-year-old Julian Wood. Last summer, this deranged monster stabbed the young boy to death in front of his mother in the parking lot of a Cleveland grocery store. Julian’s mom, Margo, was also stabbed as she tried to save her child. Colin Rugg shared the horrific details: JUST IN: Cleveland woman Bionca Ellis sentenced to life in prison without parole for murdering 3-year-old Julian Wood in a parking lot in 2024.

Julian and his mother were both stabbed in the June 3, 2024, attack. Julian sadly didn’t survive. Ellis’s attorneys tried claiming that her schizophrenia was so bad that she didn’t know her actions were wrong. “That woman murdering my son replays in my head every single day,” the boy’s mother, Margot Wood, said. “It is my living nightmare. The last thing I will ever hear from my son is his scream. And I can still see the tears in his eyes, and it haunts me every day. He was my baby boy.” “Our home isn’t as loud and chaotic anymore, not the way it used to be. There’s no one dressing up for Halloween as a dinosaur,” Julian’s father, Jared Wood, said. Did you see her creepy smile? She literally looks demon-possessed. The New York Post has more: Deranged child killer Bionca Ellis, who hacked a 3-year-old boy to death in a shopping cart as his mother unloaded groceries at an Ohio supermarket, will die in prison, a judge ruled. Ellis, 34, who went viral for her sickening smiling and grinning for the camera during a court appearance soon after the killing, looked miserable as Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge John Russo slapped her with the maximum penalty. A jury rejected her insanity defense for the ghastly murder of young Julian Wood, who she viciously stabbed in the face and back with a pair of stolen butcher knives in the parking lot of a Giant Eagle grocery store in the Cleveland suburb of North Olmstead in June 2024. The boy’s mother, Margot, was also injured as she frantically tried to save her son by yanking him out of the shopping cart during the nightmarish assault, the court heard. The attack lasted just five seconds, and Ellis was arrested minutes later, still clutching the bloody knife. This woman is as evil as they come. During the trial, Julian’s mother delivered a gut-wrenching statement: WATCH: Heartbreaking statement from the mother of Julian Wood “The last thing I can hear from my son is his scream, the sound of his pain & fear.” “I can still see the terror in his eyes & it haunts me everyday.” “I hate you with every fiber of my being.” https://t.co/gjJ4MjadtU pic.twitter.com/l8UF5iRe35 — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) October 27, 2025 Life in prison is too kind for this type of monster.

A big shakeup is happening at ICE offices across the nation. In an effort to bolster deportations, the Trump administration is swapping out ICE leadership at around half of the country’s field offices with Border Patrol officials. In most cases, the current ICE directors will not be fired, but will be reassigned to other roles. Bill Melugin of Fox News provided in-depth information on what’s going on: BREAKING: Per four senior DHS & Trump admin sources, a mass removal of ICE leadership around the country is underway, with up to 12 ICE field office chiefs being removed & reassigned in an effort to increase deportation numbers.

I’m told the move is spearheaded by Corey Lewandowski, and a handful of the ICE Chiefs will likely be replaced by Border Patrol & CBP officials, some of whom will be hand-picked by aggressive & controversial Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino. I’m told some of the ICE leadership removed from their positions include the ICE Field Office Directors in: – Los Angeles – Phoenix – Philadelphia – Denver – El Paso – San Diego – Seattle/Portland – New Orleans Border Patrol officials taking over ICE leadership positions would be extremely significant, as Border Patrol and ICE do different things, and I’ve done numerous ride-alongs/embeds with both. Generally speaking, ICE typically conducts very targeted operations, largely going after criminal illegal aliens or those with deportation orders, but almost always knowing who they are targeting for arrest, often conducting surveillance to learn their schedules before and waiting hours before arresting them if needed. Border Patrol, under Trump 2.0, while sometimes doing their own targeted operations, has been extremely aggressive and has been at the forefront of some of the most controversial immigration enforcement operations we’ve seen so far, carrying out roving patrols in Los Angeles, Chicago, etc, often at Home Depot, car washes, flea markets etc, leading to a handful of federal judges around the country issuing injunctions against them. A majority of the viral videos you see online are Border Patrol agents, including the use of a Trojan horse style Penske moving truck at a Los Angeles Home Depot, an operation organized by Bovino. ICE often gets blamed for what Border Patrol does, as the media and activists often cannot tell the difference between federal agents, and everyone is called “ICE”. I’m told there are growing concerns about the political and PR fallout associated with some of the roving patrols Border Patrol is conducting as lawsuits continue to stack up and mid-terms approach next year. I’m told there is significant friction within different wings of DHS and the administration, with Border Czar Tom Homan & ICE Director Todd Lyons preferring to prioritize targeting criminal aliens & the “worst of the worst” or those with deportation orders, while DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, and BP Commander Bovino prefer to use aggressive tactics to arrest anyone in the US illegally, including but not limited to criminals, to ramp up deportation numbers and achieve President Trump’s promises of mass deportations. I am hearing from both sides of this friction. One senior DHS official tells me: “ICE started with the worst of the worst, knowing every target they are hitting, but since Border Patrol started in LA in June, we’ve (DHS) lost our focus, going too hard, too fast, with limited prioritization. It’s getting numbers, but at what cost?”. Border Patrol agents I’ve talked to defend their tactics, with one telling me: “What did everyone think mass deportations meant? Only the worst? Tom Homan has said it himself, anyone in the US illegally is on the table.” It’s quite a situation, as both sides of this are on the same team, with the same end goals, but different perspectives on how to get there. Another DHS official confirmed the personnel changes to me on deep background, adding that the moves are based on performance and doing what is needed to achieve the best results. Official statement to @FoxNews via @TriciaOhio : “While we have no personnel changes to announce at this time, the Trump Administration remains laser focused on delivering results and removing violent criminal illegal aliens from this country.” Reportedly, a purge of ICE leadership at five field offices began over the weekend. The Washington Examiner has more: The Trump administration has begun to purge Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials in offices in five major U.S. cities and fill some of those top posts with senior Border Patrol agents who will take over interior immigration enforcement in those regions, according to five sources familiar with the plans. ICE leaders in Denver, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and San Diego were relieved of their jobs and moved to other posts within the federal agency last Friday, the Washington Examiner has learned. Over the weekend, the Department of Homeland Security quietly started overhauling how it carries out its mass deportation operation in hopes of netting more arrests and ratcheting up its flashy, high-profile deportation campaign. The five cities are believed to be the first of more to come across ICE’s 24 field offices nationwide, according to three officials. One official with firsthand knowledge of the plans, who asked to speak on the condition of anonymity, said the plan goes far beyond the five cities. “It’s a lot more,” the official said. A total of five sources said the five field office directors had been relieved of their duties and sent to other parts of the country to work. The DHS had plotted to fire all five field office directors but relented amid pushback from acting ICE Director Todd Lyons, who pleaded that they not be terminated. “The administration wanted all these guys fired and Todd stepped in and said, ‘Let’s move them all to headquarters,’” the second official said. Lyons did not respond to a request for comment. According to some reports, there is some friction between the way that Border Patrol and ICE wants to handle deportations. Recall that Stephen Miller has set daily deportation targets at 3,000 — but, while ICE has made tons of progress, most days they are not meeting that goal. More from CBS News: Internally, U.S. officials tell CBS News, some ICE leaders have been frustrated with Border Patrol’s operations in cities — and the opposition they have garnered from local residents. While the Trump administration has made anyone in the U.S. illegally who is encountered by federal officials subject to arrest, ICE says its operations have continued to primarily target immigrants who have committed crimes in addition to being in the country unlawfully. “We’re arresting criminals, while they are going to Home Depots and car washes,” one U.S. official told CBS News, referring to Border Patrol agents. Some inside the Trump administration, however, see Border Patrol officials as better equipped to carry out the aggressive and expansive operations needed to reach the ambitious arrest targets set by the White House. In the spring, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, the architect of President Trump’s mass deportation plans, suggested on Fox News that ICE should be carrying out “a minimum” of 3,000 arrests per day. ICE officials have not met that target. While they have peaked above 2,000 on some days, arrests by the agency typically hover over 1,000 each day. As of this week, ICE had carried out over 260,000 arrests under the second Trump administration, or an average of approximately 900 per day, according to internal agency data obtained by CBS News. In a statement, DHS Spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin fought back against reports of internal friction, re-iterating that Border Patrol and ICE are on the same page here.

The most tragic part of Charlie Kirk’s assassination is the fact that his two beautiful children will now grow up without their father. Today, Erika Kirk shared an absolutely heartbreaking video of their 3-year-old daughter reacting to a Charlie Kirk banner at Turning Point USA headquarters. “Charlie Kirk! I see daddy,” the young girl said, excitedly. Watch: GUT-WRENCHING: Erika Kirk posts video of her daughter arriving at Turning Point USA headquarters “Charlie Kirk!

This is her legacy also. And as she grows up and continues to say your name, I’ll be reminding her that each time heaven leans in to listen. I love you Charlie baby, I’m so proud of you. We all are so proud of you.” Whatever you think of Erika Kirk and her response to Charlie’s death, it’s evident how much this young girl misses her father. If you’ve seen any clips of the two together, and I’m sure you have by now, it’s obvious that Charlie Kirk was a wonderful father who loved his daughter tremendously. They had a very strong bond.
