"Well, they told the Military to defy orders. GO 'HEAD!!! RIGHT???"
The Anatomy of a Smear: How the Left Manufactures Lies to Criminalize Political Opposition
In the fever swamps of the modern American left, a new and dangerous conspiracy theory has taken root, one so unhinged it would be comical if it weren’t so sinister. The claim, circulating in the darkest corners of social media and whispered by partisan talking heads, is that former President Donald Trump called for the execution of six members of Congress. The alleged crime? Sedition. This is not merely a misstatement or a heated political exaggeration. It is a deliberate, malicious fabrication, a weaponized lie designed to achieve a singular goal: to criminalize political dissent and frame a leading presidential candidate as an enemy of the state. This is not politics as usual; it is the political equivalent of throwing a grenade into the foundations of our republic.
Let’s be unequivocally clear: There is no evidence—no recording, no tweet, no credible firsthand account—that Donald Trump ever called for the execution of six members of Congress. The claim is a grotesque fantasy, a Frankenstein’s monster stitched together from out-of-context quotes, wilful misinterpretations, and the pure, unadulterated venom of Trump Derangement Syndrome. It is a product of the same mindset that gave us the Russia collusion hoax, a multi-year, multimillion-dollar investigation that ultimately proved a former president innocent of a crime that existed only in the imaginations of his opponents. This new lie is simply the next chapter in that ongoing saga, a desperate attempt to salvage a narrative by escalating the stakes to their most extreme level.
The specific use of the word “sedition” is particularly telling and revealing of the left’s tactics. Sedition is not a casual term. It is a serious charge, defined as conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of the state. By attaching this word to their fabricated claim, the left is attempting a profound act of political jujitsu. They are taking the very real, documented instances of their own allies downplaying the violent riots of 2020, the “mostly peaceful” protests that burned cities and destroyed livelihoods, and projecting that sin onto their opponents. They are seeking to redefine legitimate political contestation—objecting to electoral results, challenging the integrity of voting processes, and holding passionate rallies—as an act of treason. In their worldview, to question the outcome of an election is not a right enshrined in our political tradition; it is sedition. To support a candidate they despise is not democracy; it is an insurrection.
This is the ultimate gaslighting. The same political party whose members spent four years questioning the legitimacy of the 2016 election, promoting the “not my president” mantra, and launching an unprecedented impeachment effort based on a perfect phone call, now insists that any challenge to the 2020 election is an unforgivable attack on democracy. They have weaponized the justice system, using the full force of the federal government to pursue and punish their political rivals, painting them as threats to the nation. The goal is to remove Trump not just from the ballot, but from the public square entirely, by framing him not as a political opponent, but as a criminal insurrectionist whose supporters are a domestic terrorist threat.
This strategy is straight from the Saul Alinsky playbook: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Trump is the target. The lie about executing members of Congress is the tool to freeze him in the public mind as a violent extremist. It personalizes the entire conservative movement into one demonic figure. And it polarizes the nation, making any attempt at civil discourse or reconciliation impossible. How can you compromise with someone who you believe wants you executed? You cannot. The lie is engineered to make dialogue impossible and to justify any and all actions to stop the perceived threat.
The conservative perspective on this is rooted in a defense of the very principles that underpin a free society: due process, the presumption of innocence, and the sanctity of truth. We believe that accusations must be backed by evidence, not amplified by social media algorithms. We believe that political speech, even when it is passionate, angry, or disruptive, is protected speech, not sedition. The Founding Fathers designed the First Amendment precisely to protect unpopular speech; popular speech never needs protection. The left’s effort to redefine robust political disagreement as incitement is a direct assault on the First Amendment.
Furthermore, conservatives understand that this smear is not really about Donald Trump. He is merely the current vessel for the left’s hatred. This is about discrediting and silencing the 74 million Americans who voted for him, and the millions more who support his policies. By painting the leader as a would-be assassin, they aim to tar every one of his supporters as complicit in his allegedly violent aims. It is a strategy of delegitimization aimed at a vast swath of the American populace—those who believe in border security, economic freedom, a strong military, and the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. They are telling us that our views are not just wrong, but are so dangerous that they constitute a threat to the republic that must be extinguished by any means necessary.
The path forward for conservatives is clear. First, we must categorically and forcefully reject this lie and every other like it. We cannot allow this poison to seep into the public consciousness unanswered. We must demand that those who propagate this falsehood provide evidence, and when they cannot—which they never can—we must expose their malicious intent.
Second, we must refuse to be intimidated. The goal of this smear is to make us shrink from our beliefs, to make us whisper our support for conservative policies for fear of being labeled “seditionists.” We must do the opposite. We must be louder and more proud of our American values. We must champion the rule of law, which they are so blatantly violating.
Finally, we must remain focused on the truth. The truth is that Donald Trump is a former president running for office on a platform of economic renewal, secure borders, and national strength. The truth is that his supporters are patriotic Americans who love their country. The truth is that the real threat to our democracy comes not from passionate political campaigns, but from those who would use the power of the state to imprison their opponents and use blatant lies to frighten the populace into submission.
The claim that Trump wants members of Congress executed is a lie. It is a symptom of a political movement that has lost faith in its own ideas and has resorted to the politics of the dagger, cloaked in the language of righteousness. We must see it for what it is and reject it utterly, for the preservation of our republic depends on it.
