The Murderous Edge of Cancel Culture: Eric O’Neill on Political Violence and Security – #InTheDugout – September 18, 2025

The most extreme and violent manifestation of the Left’s cancel culture has arrived: the assassination of political opponents. With Charlie Kirk’s tragic murder still reverberating, many in the pro-freedom movement are left shocked, saddened, and deeply concerned for their own safety.

Should advocates in Rhode Island be worried? And more importantly, what can be done to prevent political terrorism in all its forms?

My guest is Eric O’Neill — legendary FBI counterterrorism and counterintelligence operative, cybersecurity expert, attorney, and founder of The Georgetown Group and NeXasure AI. Eric’s undercover work famously brought down Robert Hanssen, the FBI’s most notorious Russian mole, an operation later dramatized in the film Breach. Today, he helps organizations defend against cybercriminals and speaks widely on emerging threats, including terrorism, AI, and cyberattacks.

Together, we’ll discuss the current climate of political violence, the real dangers we face, and how pro-freedom advocates can protect themselves in this new era of extremism.
