Saw a couple of articles about the possibility of a civil war in the USA. Here are some excerpts:
Too Many Americans Want a Civil War
November 17, 2025
The political assassination of Charlie Kirk continues to impact America. Charlie’s conservative nonprofit organization, Turning Point USA, has seen a surge in membership. There are reports across the country of increased church attendance, …
An equally important, though darkly troubling, consequence of his murder has been the deluge of mockery and hatred from leftists celebrating Charlie’s death. Antifa-aligned groups show up on college campuses to attack Turning Point staff and prevent students from hearing Charlie’s arguments. Prominent Democrats continue to pretend that violent leftist rhetoric had nothing to do with his murder. Celebrity “journalists” defend Charlie’s assassination by not-so-subtly suggesting that Charlie’s willingness to debate a range of political and moral issues with Americans of all political backgrounds constituted some kind of impermissible “hate” or linguistic “violence.”
In a recent interview with Democrat Senator John Fetterman, leftist propagandist Katie Couric tried really hard to blame Charlie for his own murder. “Did you have any issues, now in hindsight, over some of the things that Charlie Kirk said?” Couric asked Fetterman. When the senator responded with compassion for Charlie’s family and pointed out that “engaging in debate would never justify what’s happened,” Couric nonetheless insisted, “I think some people might say Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric was extreme. … People think his words lead to violence.”
Breaking news, Katie: During the height of the civil rights movement, people worried that Martin Luther King, Jr.’s words would lead to violence, too. His assassination did not dispel the truth of his message. The same is true of Charlie.
When famous “reporters” such as Couric so conspicuously work to justify a leftist-inspired political assassination, non-leftists pay attention. As one social media account posted, “Charlie was a moderate Christian conservative. If Katie thinks he ‘deserved’ this because of his beliefs, she thinks we ALL deserve the same thing.” A lot of non-leftist Americans have realized over the last two months that leftists want them dead.
For the last ten years, they’ve watched Antifa domestic terrorists burn down businesses, threaten drivers, and perpetrate all kinds of violence against random American citizens. Seeing this organized terrorism on computer screens, many non-leftists could effectively compartmentalize these incidents of violence and destruction as the actions of revolutionary Marxists and militant Democrats.
After Charlie’s assassination, however, non-leftists witnessed the publicized glee of ordinary Democrats across the country. Teachers, nurses, and even therapists felt no shame in expressing happiness over Charlie’s murder. …
Within moments of the attempted assassination of President Trump in Pennsylvania last summer, Democrat politicians and their allies in the press were already downplaying the event or pretending that the shooting had been faked (even as fire chief Corey Comperatore lay dead). Rather than taking a moment to consider how close the country had come to a potentially civil war-triggering murder of a major national figure, leftists publicly regretted that the assassin had failed. Random leftists took to social media platforms to complain about the shooter’s aim. …
Too many Americans seek and cheer violence right now. Too many Americans are eager for civil war. If we cannot lower the temperature in this country, Charlie’s murder will presage an unbearable slaughter to come. https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/11/too_many_americans_want_a_civil_war.html
The Coming American Civil War
This is an important report on the prospect for another American Civil War as now the polls show that 30% of American view that violence is necessary to solve policial disputes. The United States has become so POLARIZED that there is no possible resolution. Politics has devolved into trying to undermine a sitting president ll for political gain with no consideration for the country of the rule of law. Both sides see the opposition now as the enemy, not simply an oponent {sic}. 11/16/25 https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/armstrong-economics-upcoming-events/world-economic-conference/the-coming-american-civil-war-2/
Last year, a movie was released titled Civil War, with the subtitle All Empires Fall. It is intended to depict a new civil war in the USA. Here is some of what Wikipedia reported about it:
Civil War is a 2024 dystopian action film written and directed by Alex Garland.[4] The film stars Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, Cailee Spaeny, Stephen McKinley Henderson, and Nick Offerman. Its plot follows a team of journalists who travel across the United States during a rapidly escalating Second American Civil War, which has engulfed the entire nation. … The film documents the journalists struggling to survive during a time when the U.S. government has become a dystopian dictatorship and partisan extremist militias regularly commit war crimes. (Civil War (film), Wikipedia, accessed 04/08/24)
From what I have been able to tell, that movie involves heavy military weapons, etc., as well as armed people. It also seems to include an alliance of states that probably would not align with each other in such a conflict.
That said, could another civil war happen?
Even a couple of months back, some have wondered it the shooting of Charlie Kirk will be a turning point leading to civil war in the USA.
Political leaders confront security concerns — and fear — after Kirk’s assassination
September 14, 2025
MORRISTOWN, N.J. (AP) — Even before the killing of Charlie Kirk, Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania was struggling with the emotional toll of political violence.
In the middle of the night just five months ago, someone broke into his home and set it on fire. Shapiro, who is also a likely 2028 Democratic presidential contender, was asleep with his wife and children. …
Across the nation, it is much the same for Republican and Democratic officials after another stunning act of political violence. Politicians in both parties and at virtually every level of public service are suddenly being forced to deal with acute security concerns — and feelings of grief, anger and fear — as they move deeper into a fraught election season. …
Bellicose rhetoric and even death threats have surged in the days since Kirk was killed.
“The left is the party of murder,” Elon Musk, the tech titan and CEO of the social media platform X, wrote. “If they won’t leave us in peace, then our choice is to fight or die.”
To that, Fox News host Jesse Waters said during a broadcast, “They are at war with us. Whether we want to accept it or not, they are at war with us. What are we going to do about it?” https://apnews.com/article/political-violence-republican-democrat-election-fear-kirk-eb105e574210d5fc03b9d0500ac36a96
Is a new civil war in the U.S. possible?
The brutal assassination of the American conservative commentator Charlie Kirk has once again brought the possibility of a new civil war in the U.S. into public virtual discussion. The topic of a Civil War 2.0 is not actually new. Over the past few years, according to Google Analytics — especially in the days immediately following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump — terms like “civil war” have seen a growing search volume on search engines. In 2024, the year of Trump’s second election, the film Civil War, directed by Alex Garland, was released. In its backdrop, an authoritarian U.S. government faces three simultaneous secessionist movements.
We could say, therefore, that the signs of “civil war” have already started to occupy the American political and cultural imagination, which is truly significant. …
What is certain, therefore, is that the assassination of Charlie Kirk will lead to more assassinations, terrorist attacks, political violence in the streets, etc. — not necessarily to a formal civil war. https://strategic-culture.su/news/2025/09/12/is-new-civil-war-in-us-possible/
“THIS IS WAR”: Some Right-Wing Figures Call for Retribution Following Kirk Killing
Conservative activist and Trump confidant Laura Loomer sent a barrage of posts to her 1.7 million followers. In one, she called for the Trump administration to “shut down, defund, & prosecute every single Leftist organization,” adding, “The Left is a national security threat.” After Kirk’s death was confirmed, she wrote: “They sent a trained sniper to assassinate Charlie Kirk while he was sitting next to a table of hats that said 47.” It is unclear which “they” she was referring to.
“More people will be murdered if the Left isn’t crushed with the power of the state,” Loomer added.
Even President Donald Trump blamed the shooting on “radical left political violence” in an Oval Office address Wednesday night.
Former White House staffer and current podcast host Katie Miller, wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, wrote on X that liberals “have blood on your hands.” And Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) went so far as to blame the killing on the Democrats. …
Andrew Tate, the British American masculinity influencer turned far-right culture warrior, kept his message simple: “Civil war,” he wrote. Anti-abortion activist and president of Students for Life Kristan Hawkins also invoked civil war and seemed to imply that Kirk’s killing was a result of his opposition to abortion. “We all know the work we do to protect Life comes at a cost,” Hawkins said. In another X post, she wrote: “This is a new civil war. One that we must fight with love to restore a Culture of Life.”
Chaya Raichik, the creator of the far-right Libs of TikTok Twitter account, quickly began sharing posts that were meant to show left-wing and progressive people, including many who aren’t public figures, celebrating Kirk’s killing. In her own post on X, she wrote: “THIS IS WAR.” 09/13/25 https://www.lemkininstitute.com/single-post/this-is-war-some-right-wing-figures-call-for-retribution-following-kirk-killing
While I did now know much about Charlie Kirk before he was killed (had heard him on the radio and seen him on the news a few times), I do not believe he would have wanted an actual civil war because of his death.
However, he did speak out against sexual immorality and aspects of the LGBTQ+ agenda. The man accused of murdering Charlie Kirk reportedly lived with a man who was trying to become a woman–a so-called trans person:
While the left oscillates between celebrating Charlie Kirk’s murder and insisting the suspect, Tyler Robinson, is a conservative, today we learn that Robinson was living with a transgender partner who was in the process of transitioning from male to female, 09/13/25 https://www.zerohedge.com/political/charlie-kirks-assassination-suspect-lived-transgender-partner-discord-denies-use
It would seem that Charlie Kirk’s more biblical stand against such things would be a motivating factor for the killer. While even Democrat Bill Clinton signed the ‘Defense of Marriage Act,’ which was supposed to prohibit homosexual marriages, nowadays pretty much all Democrats, as well as a lot of Republicans, in the USA condone LGBTQ+ relations, which the word of God opposes (Romans 1:18-32)–and the LGBTQ+ groups have grown in influence.
That said, there is a major divide in the USA: Both the left and the right are concerned about civil unrest and even civil war.
Jesus warned:
6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. (Matthew 24:6-12)
We are in the “beginning of sorrows” and we are more and more seeing “lawlessness” abounding as Jesus warned.
Related to violence in the land and prophecies, the old Worldwide Church of God published the following:
This world is filled with a multitude of causes, small and great, just and unjust. The prospects for success for many of these causes, however, are doubtful at best. Opposition or indifference to them is simply too overwhelming in many cases to permit the individuals and groups involved to achieve their goals. …
Bible prophecy … reveals that we are headed for a new dark age of political despotism and barbarism — on a scale unmatched in history! Rampant terrorism on the world scene will undoubtedly play its part in paving the way for prophesied end-time tyrants to assume broad “emergency” powers — as did Adolf Hitler and others through history.
Perilous times
The scourge of terrorism was predicted centuries ago in the pages of the Bible.
Jesus prophesied that conditions in the latter days would mirror the chaotic state of the earth in Noah’s time — an evil and corrupt world filled with violence (Luke 17:26, Genesis 6:5, 11).
The apostle Paul also warned, “In the last days perilous times will come” (II Timothy 3:1). The meaning of this prophecy goes far beyond mere incidental crime.
“Make a chain,” cried the prophet Ezekiel , “for the land is filled with crimes of blood, and the city is full of violence” (Ezekiel 7:23).
Bible prophecies picture an end-time world filled with lawlessness, aggression and hate, a world split by factions and international disputes, an era of rampant, indiscriminate violence and murder inspired by Satan the devil, the original murderer (John 8:44). (Stump K. How TERRORISM Will Be Stopped! Good News, December 1985)
We are seeing more hate and violence. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/12/04/doomsday-preppers-and-election-2024-fears/71695426007/
The USA is deeply divided. It has politicized more and more.
Jesus warned:
25 … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. (Matthew 12:25)
24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. (Mark 3:24-25)
17 … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls. (Luke 11:17)
Notice that God inspired this to be written three times in the Gospels.
God normally seems to repeat something in scripture for emphasis.
The division is a BIG DEAL.
The end of the USA and UK is coming (cf. Daniel 11:39).
Instead of fighting each other, love is what is needed.
As Jesus taught:
37 … “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” (Matthew 22:37-40)
27 “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. 29 To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either. 30 Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31 And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
32 “But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back. 35 But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. 36 Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful. (Luke 6:27-36)
Instead of true love, a lot of hate and anger has been displayed and whipped up.
Troubles are prophesied (Mark 13:8).
The time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), also known as the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21), is coming and the USA and its Anglo-Saxon allies (including Canada) will be affected.
National repentance is the only way to prevent it, and that does not look likely. Though for the nation, the Kingdom of God is the solution, but first there will be a horrific 3 1/2 years.
Personal repentance, however, is still possible. Your personal future can still be much brighter than that of your country. Jesus, in addition to being the source of salvation, also offered physical protection to the most faithful (see Philadelphian Christian Great Tribulation Protection and/or watch Great Tribulation Protection).
