The Catholic League’s Bill Donohue called on law enforcement to release the journals and drawings of Audrey Hale, who went on a killing rampage March 27 at Nashville’s Covenant School and was gunned down by police. “What’s the reason for balking? The fear, as expressed by school officials, Covenant School parents, the media and LGBT activists, is that the public may learn the real reasons why Hale did what she did,” Mr. Donohue said in a statement. “In other words, if she made vicious anti-Christian remarks, they don’t want to deal with the fallout.” Little is known about Hale‘s motivation...

The Washington Post reported Monday that local news outlets in Louisiana, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Oklahoma received emails from anonymous people about bomb threats at the locations.

NASHVILLE – A court filing made by The Covenant School’s legal team on Monday seeks to intervene in ongoing lawsuits that demand the public release of shooter Audrey Hale‘s writings. The National Police Association (NPA) and Tennessee Firearms Association (TFA) have separately filed suits against the city with the same objective. These lawsuits emerged as the Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) was in the process of reviewing the writings, referred to as a manifesto, to determine their potential for public disclosure. The school argues that the release of the information “could pose security and safety risks for the school, its...

Those who are deep in the weeds of “transgender” ideology are often very disturbed people. So-called “transgenderism” was once a weird sexual-fetish activity that existed at the periphery of American society. It’s now moved front and center, something that is inordinately dangerous. Americans are beginning to understand the danger to our children from a movement that is compulsively and pathologically drawn to children, both for sexual excitement and recruitment, but people need to recognize that the so-called “transgender” crowd is also encouraging itself to be violently dangerous to all Americans. Mark Tapson, one of the most insightful writers about cultural...

The home of the Republican state senator has been vandalized over his bill banning sex changes for minors — which the governor has signed into law. The vandalism took place at the home of Sen. Mike Kennedy on the evening of April 21. The vandal left messages in red spray paint across Sen. Kennedy’s garage, including “Fash,” presumably meaning Fascist, and “these trannies bash back.”

Nashville shooter Audrey Hale’s manifesto is a “blueprint on total destruction” which the FBI are stalling releasing, according to local politicians, who describe its contents as “astronomically dangerous”.

We seem to be at a flashpoint in the transgender culture wars. Long-threatened violence is now becoming real, and people have been murdered. “Scott”Newgent, a biological woman who regrets “transitioning” and now campaigns against the trans agenda (you might recognize Newgent from Matt Walsh’s documentary What is A Woman?), told me on the podcast this week that violence has been inevitable for some time. Walsh also noted during a roundtable discussion that although he cannot get into specifics for security reasons, he believes more violence is coming.

After calling for and then deleting his demand for the left to “exterminate” conservative “cockroaches,” Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band guitarist Steven Van Zandt is still walking back his incendiary comment, claiming he meant to say “exterminate at the ballot box.” In a recent set of angry tweets, Steven Van Zandt defended his use of “cockroaches” to describe the political opposition after someone pointed out that the same insult was used in Rwanda to foment genocide. Van Zandt claimed his use of “cockroach” was just “symbolism” and that he really meant to say “exterminate at the ballot box.” He called...
