George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley criticized the Democratic Party on Fox News Friday for what he said is a dangerous turn towards extremism.
Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley initiated an investigation into a California-based Democratic Party organization, alleging potential financial support for violent protests during the recent Los Angeles riots. During an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle,” Turley said that the party’s actions are driven by unchecked rage, which he said fuels extreme decisions and actions.
“It’s as if they’ve become a party of Jacobins, that they are endorsing the most extreme possible actions. I just wrote a book on the age of rage, and this is what rage does,” Turley told host Laura Ingraham. “It gives you a license to do things and say things you would not ordinarily do or say.”
Turley also pointed out the addictive nature of rage.
“And what these people won’t admit, what they won’t admit tomorrow, is that they like it and that they need it and that it’s contagious and it’s addictive. That’s what rage is,” Turley added.
Turley also discussed legal proceedings involving political figures.
A federal judge ordered President Donald Trump on Thursday to return control of the California National Guard to Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom. Judge Charles B. Breyer, a Clinton appointee, temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s deployment of National Guard members in Los Angeles, delaying the order’s enforcement until Friday at noon.
Turley criticized the judicial opinion, saying it could reach the Supreme Court where the Court has traditionally granted presidents significant deference in military force deployment decisions since the Madison administration.
“You’re supposed to be speaking to the law. You’re supposed to be speaking to the citizens as to what the law demands. Not how you view presidents or figures or politics or parties. And that’s where I think that he did cross the line here in a very significant way. Now the Court of Appeals is going to have to look at this,” Turley said.
“It could very well go to the Supreme Court. Since James Madison, this has been an issue, and the Supreme Court said back in the Madison administration that a president is given great deference in deciding when to deploy these types of forces,” Turley said. “They generally do not second-guess, as this opinion did. So you can debate the lines of authority, but much of this opinion seems to me really extraneous to the legal questions.”
Earlier Friday, a federal appeals court blocked a lower court’s order requiring Trump to turn over control of the National Guard to California. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals allowed Trump to retain the National Guard in Los Angeles, at least until Tuesday, when it scheduled a hearing to address the issue.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
The democratic party is a domestic enemy and a terrorist organization hell-bent on the destruction of the Republic of the United States of America and mean tremendous harm to its people. The leaders of the Democratic Party are all traitors. Their actions, past and present, undeniably prove this fact. They speak lies to the truth! They cheat and murder. They are godless and violent. They need prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law!
In coordination with each other, Democrats spread the most inflammatory lies possible about anyone who opposes them. Less than mentally stable suggestible non-critical un-thinkers swallow it hook, line, and sinker. When they act out violently in response to the propaganda, Democrats never condemn it but instead justify and enthusiastically encourage more of it.
Today’s Democrat party is the Communist party of the USA. It’s that simple.

No difference.
