The Atlantic admitted on Tuesday that left-wing violence has spiraled out of control since President Donald Trump entered the political realm in 2016.

The outlet compiled a data set of 750 attacks between Jan. 1, 1994, to July 4, 2025, and found that left-wing terror attacks are currently outnumbering violence coming from the political right. By July 4, far-left extremists accounted for five terrorist attacks or attempted attacks, which puts 2025 on pace to be the most violent year for the political left in over 30 years.

“[President Donald] Trump’s political ascent and the expansion of the MAGA movement seem to have reenergized left-wing violent extremism, which accounted for 37 incidents from 2016 to 2024, most of them motivated by either anti-government or partisan sentiment. By July 4 of this year, far-left extremists had already been responsible for five terrorist attacks and plots, putting 2025 on pace to be the left’s most violent year in more than three decades,” The Atlantic wrote.

While left-wing violence is on the rise, right-wing terror attacks have been on the decline, The Atlantic reported. The only right-wing terror attack committed in 2025 was the assassination of Democratic state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband in June.

During former President Barack Obama’s presidency, right-wing terrorism accounted for 106 attacks and plots, The Atlantic reported. President Donald Trump’s rise to political power marked a drastic change by prompting more left-wing terror attacks.

Trump faced two assassination attempts on his life on July 13, 2024, and Sept. 15, 2024. The first occurred when 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks allegedly fired several rounds into the crowd of a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, causing Trump to suffer a bullet wound in his upper ear. The second attempted happened at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, when the alleged would-be assassin Ryan Routh attempted to shoot Trump with an AK-47-style rifle before being spotted by Secret Service agents. A jury convicted Routh on Tuesday on all five counts in connection to the attempted assassination.

Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk died from a bullet wound to the neck on Sept. 10 after 22-year-old Tyler Robinson allegedly shot him from a rooftop located about 200 yards away. The alleged assassin’s parents told authorities that their son had subscribed to left-wing ideology and had become “more pro-gay and trans-rights oriented,” Utah County Attorney Jeffrey Gray said on Sept. 16.

Robinson was in a relationship with a trans-identifying male named Lance Twiggs and was fixated on pornographic furry culture. A relative of Twiggs said that the trans-identifying man reportedly “hates conservatives and Christians,” according to the New York Post.

Violent incidents and murders involving transgender individuals have been on the rise in recent years, despite trans-identifying adults making up less than 1% of the U.S. population. In August, a trans-identifying man named Robin Westman allegedly opened fire through the stained glass windows of Annunciation Catholic Church and killed two students while they were attending Mass.

New documents have revealed that Nicholas Roske, the alleged would-be assassin of Supreme Court Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh, identifies as transgender.
