Brandt, Accused Murdered Of Teen He Believed Was “Republican Extremist,” Released On $50K Bond, No Curfew, No House Arrest

First, let’s start with a meme that basically encapsulates one of the major issues here– the two-tiered politically-motivated justice system. The second major issue is further down, so please don’t stop reading.

Shannon Brandt allegedly admitted to killing 18 year old Cayler Ellingson by mowing him down with his vehicle, saying he was afraid of him because he believed the teen to be a “Republican extremist.” According to a probable-cause affidavit obtained by Fox News Digital,

“Brandt admitted to State Radio that he hit the pedestrian and that the pedestrian was part of a Republican extremist group.”

Another court filing by a North Dakota Highway Patrol trooper stated that Brandt “admitted to striking someone he never met with his vehicle” before leaving the scene. Ellingson sustained serious injuries and later died in the hospital.

The North Dakota Highway Patrol Captain Bryan Niewind has since stated that there is “no evidence” that the teen was part of a “Republican extremist group.”

Brandt was charged with criminal vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of a crash involving a death after the incident. County jail and court records indicate that Brandt was was released on $50,000 bond, but was not placed under house arrest, nor does he have a curfew.

Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Neama Rahman told Fox News Digital that the $50K bond is a “low amount” and “woefully inadequate.”

“Yeah, it’s a low amount, no question. Whenever you’re dealing with a vehicular manslaughter case, that’s low in general.”

The bond amount being woefully inadequate for the blatant politically-motivated murder of a teenager, especially when compared to other highly politicized crimes, is only one extremely frustrating aspect of this crime. The other is the blatantly violent rhetoric by Democrat politicians and media pundits that incites this kind of violence.

Watch these videos showing The Party and their media propagandists working overtime in the last few weeks to vilify conservatives and Republicans as dangerous extremists and even terrorists, simply for having views that differ from those of the reigning Leftist Party.

  • “Civil War” has “already begun.”
  • We need to “Deal with extremism” and learn lessons from “what happened to us on 9/11.”
  • Political violence from Republicans “could be more dangerous than 1860 or the 1930s.”
  • Fight against pro-life movement is “literally a call to arms in our country.”
  • “We have to kill” conservative Republican movement.
  • “Republicans are… biggest threat to democracy. We don’t separate right-wing extremists and Republican Party anymore.”
  • “We are at war” with “evil” Republicans.
  • MAGA Republicans plan to “destroy the United States of America.”

If you were Shannon Brandt listening to this and SO MUCH MORE like this from politicians and the media, wouldn’t you feel justified in murdering a teen you thought was one of these extremist Republican terrorists that are supposedly so dangerous? Seriously, watch these clips and consider whether this might have contributed to the death of an innocent teenager.

    >Republicans are… biggest threat to democracy.

    Sadly, no, they aren’t. I wish more “leaders” would get off their asses and fight back against this push for democracy though. Democracy sucks. Vlad Lenin was all for it, the Founders were against it.

    Article 4 section 4, Constitution-

    The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government,

    “From this view of the subject, it may be concluded that a pure democracy, by which I mean a society, consisting of a small number of citizens, who assemble and administer the government in person, can admit of no cure for the mischiefs of faction. A common passion or interest will, in almost every case, be felt by a majority of the whole; a communication and concert results from the form of government itself; and there is nothing to check the inducements to sacrifice the weaker party, or an obnoxious individual. Hence it is, that such democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security, or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives, as they have been violent in their deaths.” – Federalist 10

    Mrs. Elizabeth Powel- Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?
    Ben Franklin- A republic, if you can keep it. (paraphrased)

      Liberals think they’re so smart. (We) will destroy the democracy. There is no democracy to destroy. We have a Constitutional Republic. And THAT is what we’re trying to preserve.

    This angers me as much as Breonna Taylor’s loser boyfriend walking after getting her killed and the young punk who killed some people, but got off after chump-change bail was paid. This was brought to you by DEMOCRATS, the criminal elements’ best friends!

    I am one of those grand parents and I am not yet hunting idiots although if given the proper motivation such as a direct attack against my daughters and grand kids the gloves will come off and you better believe that I am at 70 years of age one hell of a good hunter.
