WASHINGTON D.C. April 26, 2026 – The America PAC, a political action committee founded by Elon Musk to back candidates promoting secure borders, sensible spending, safe cities, fair justice, free speech, and self-protection, has ignited fresh debate over political rhetoric with a pointed X post and accompanying video.
In the post, published Sunday evening, the PAC directly challenged Democrats and legacy media: “After multiple assassination attempts on President Trump, Democrats and legacy media still pretend to be confused how we got here. This is how:”
The post includes a 140-second video montage compiling clips of inflammatory statements from prominent Democrats, media figures, and celebrities over the past decade. The compilation features:
- Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stating, “I just don’t even know why there aren’t uprisings all over the country… There needs to be unrest in our lives.”
- Commentators and public figures repeatedly calling for or joking about physically assaulting Trump, including suggestions to “punch him in the face.”
- A reference to Abraham Lincoln’s assassin, John Wilkes Booth, with the line, “Where is John Wilkes Booth when you need him?”
- Singer Madonna discussing “blowing up the White House.”
- A Missouri state senator under Secret Service investigation after saying she hoped President Trump would be assassinated.
- Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) urging crowds to confront Trump administration officials “in the streets” and public places.
- Then-Vice President Kamala Harris telling supporters, “Do not let up… You cannot let up.”
The video ends with the logo of The Caldron Pool, a Christian news and commentary site.
The timing of the post coincides with reports of ongoing threats and recent incidents targeting President Trump and his administration officials, including an attempted breach at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 25, 2026, where authorities say armed suspect Cole Tomas Allen attempted to access the event venue. Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and several Cabinet members were evacuated as a precaution. This follows prior assassination attempts during the 2024 campaign cycle.
The America PAC post has already garnered thousands of views and sparked heated discussion on X, with users debating the connection between heated political language and real-world violence.
Critics of the video argue it cherry-picks statements taken out of context, while supporters say it highlights a pattern of dehumanizing rhetoric that has normalized threats against Trump and conservative figures.
