NATION ON EDGE: Ex-FBI Agent Predicts EXPLOSION of Political Violence!

A chilling forecast for 2026 emerged from a recent appearance by former FBI agent Jonathan Gilliam, painting a stark picture of escalating political unrest. He warns that the instances of political violence witnessed recently aren't isolated events, but rather the opening salvo in a dangerous trend.

Gilliam specifically referenced the case of Luigi Mangione, a figure now seemingly celebrated by some for his actions, and the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a conservative influencer. Disturbingly, he noted the existence of individuals who openly rejoiced in Kirk’s death, a chilling indication of deepening societal fractures.

The killing of Kirk, labeled a “political assassination” by authorities, marked a turning point in 2025. Investigators discovered a bullet allegedly used in the attack engraved with a provocative message, fueling a national debate about the connection between heated political rhetoric and real-world violence.

The Department of Homeland Security reported a staggering 1,150% increase in assaults against ICE officers in 2025 compared to the previous year. This surge in attacks culminated in a shooting at an ICE facility, leaving one detainee dead and two others injured, highlighting a targeted campaign of violence.

Past attempts on the life of former President Trump serve as a grim reminder of the potential for political violence at the highest levels. While the current wave of violence appears to originate primarily from one side of the political spectrum, Gilliam raises the critical question of how the opposing side might react.

Some observers suggest the nation is already embroiled in a one-sided civil conflict, a simmering tension that could erupt into full-scale chaos if the current trend of violence continues unchecked. The potential for escalation, and a reciprocal response, looms large.

The implications are deeply unsettling, suggesting a normalization of political violence that threatens the very fabric of American society. The hope for a more peaceful 2026 feels increasingly fragile in the face of these stark warnings.
