Charlie Kirk built himself into the face of a conservative youth movement through Turning Point USA (TPUSA). Behind the branding of “patriotism” and “freedom,” the record shows a pattern of rhetoric, organizational culture, and alliances that echoed white supremacist and Christian nationalist ideologies. The Southern Poverty Law Center documented how TPUSA repeatedly framed immigrants, LGBTQ+ people, and racial justice advocates as existential threats to “white Christian America,” warning followers that their families, religion, and entire way of life were under attack. In later years, Kirk openly embraced Christian nationalist language, claiming that liberty was only possible with a Christian population—a...

Did the Washington Post fire a long-time editor for speaking truth to power? Or did she lose her job because she couldn't do basic research before smearing the victim of a political assassination? Or worse? YMMV, but the way Karen Attiah frames the argument in her newly launched Substack certainly looks sus, as the kids say these days. It takes her an awfully long time to get to the catalyst for her termination .... and for good reason, as it turns out: What "work" would that be? Well, it turns out to be the work of slagging Charlie Kirk in...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Jacksonville City Councilman Rory Diamond called on his colleagues to “swiftly” remove a city government appointee, Leofric Thomas Jr., from the Public Service Grants Council after he appeared to justify the assassination of Charlie Kirk. “Calling on my council colleagues to swiftly remove Leofric Thomas, Jr. as an appointee to our City government,” Diamond said. “Disgusting.” Thomas’ now-deleted post read: “When you spew hate it’s what you get back. Charlie spewed nothing but hate, so what he got back, was….. yeah,” adding a shrug emoji.

That's right. A Kenyan migrant broke into a Twin Cities home in 2016 and raped a woman who was in bed sleeping. For some reason, he was only sentenced to two years in jail. He was then set to be deported, since America is no place for foreigners who rape women, but U.S. District Judge David S. Doty stayed the order in 2018 (because of course) and then the rapist managed to get two taxpayer-funded jobs at two state agencies (because of course).

Chicago law firms have found a new way to get paid at taxpayers’ expense: suing the city for alleged police misconduct. The suits are draining hundreds of millions from Chicago’s coffers at a time when the city can’t afford to lose a dime. Voters should hold their leaders accountable for enabling this racket. For years, Chicago has led the nation in overturning supposedly wrongful convictions. This has resulted in a windfall for law firms—both those suing the city and those hired by the city to settle cases. Since 2000, Chicago has paid over $700 million in settlements to criminal defendants...

It looks like another Democrat darling has tripped over his own carefully crafted narrative. Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) just had a public meltdown when confronted about a glaring and long-running falsehood: his claim to having received a Bronze Star. For years, Moore casually let the military honor bolster his public image, political resume, and book sales — but now, under scrutiny, he’s suddenly claiming it "wasn't something I even thought about.” That’s a hard pill to swallow, considering the Bronze Star is not just some casual decoration. It’s one of the U.S. military’s most prestigious awards, given for heroic...

Maxine Waters, D-Calif., called for the 25th Amendment to the Constitution to be used against President Donald Trump on Friday, suggesting he was unfit, during a discussion about his removal of Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors.

DC under Trump = Pyongyang on the Potomac! That was the absurd analogy that CNN This Morning host Audie Cornish tried to make on Tuesday's show. Reacting to the news that there have been no murders in the capital for 12 days running under Trump's crime-fighting moves there, Cornish said as she held up the New York Post: "Actually, there's probably no murders in North Korea, too."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

President Biden's nominee for governor of the Federal Reserve has said repeatedly that she supports reparations, the controversial proposed policy of financial compensation for Black Americans as a form of atonement for slavery and discrimination. "Everybody benefited from slavery. Everybody," Lisa Cook, a Michigan State University professor, said in a September 2020 "EconTalk" podcast. "So, I think that we absolutely need some sort of reckoning with that. There are many proposals on the table to study the possibility of reparations, many economic proposals being put forward, and I think they should all be taken seriously." Biden said during the 2020...

The first Black woman to serve on the Federal Reserve board, Ms. Cook has long been a pathbreaker in a field dominated by white men.Years before Lisa Cook became President Trump’s latest target in his effort to exert control over the Federal Reserve, she wrote about her experience as one of a relative handful of Black women in a field long dominated by white men.“Economics is neither a welcoming nor a supportive profession for women,” she and a colleague wrote in a New York Times opinion essay in 2019. She added, “But if economics is hostile to women, it is...
