"YOU failed to teach...

Kaine didn’t seem to get it when a Fox News reporter asked him about the outrage over the verdict on his side. “I have a hard time understanding why they would say that,” Kaine said about claims that the verdict was racially charged. All right, then: What about specific claims by Crockett and others? “I know what they’re saying, but I have a hard time understanding,” Kaine said.

Left-wing Texas congresswoman Jasmie Crockett has suggested that she would have stabbed Austin Mecalf just like Karmelo Anthony did.

On the lawmaker's Tuesday episode of "Clock It with Crockett,” she made claims about the murder weapon that Anthony used to kill Metcalf, as well as suggested that she would have done the same thing as the murderer.

“We’re in a nightmare. It doesn’t feel real,” said Anthony’s parents in their first interview following the verdict with Mimi Brown on The Breakfast Club. “We’ve been up all night crying and praying.” “We didn’t know how cruel the world could be,” Karmelo Anthony’s father, Andrew Anthony, said. “We did everything we were advised and told to do, and look what happened.” . . . “The reality of this is that somebody literally walked into [Karmelo’s] life,” he said, “[Karmelo] did everything by the law and just look at where we’re at.”

Karmelo didn't cry when the jury heard the 911 call after Austin Metcalf was stabbed. He didn't cry when Austin's twin brother, Hunter, could be heard screaming in anguish and praying his brother wouldn't die. He didn't cry when the jury was shown Austin's autopsy photos. He didn't cry when they saw the blood-soaked shirt used in a desperate attempt to save Austin's life. But he cried when he was found guilty. And he cried again when he was sentenced to 35 years. The only tears the jury saw were for his own fate, not for the life that was...

But as Breitbart Sports noted, even hours after the verdict and sentence were announced, donations continued to pour in. This, despite the fact that the fund’s purpose is...

Lame-duck Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) suggested during an unhinged episode podcast that she too would have stabbed track star Austin Metcalf — after Karmelo Anthony was convicted of first-degree murder in the racially charged case.

The cavalcade of inaccuracies started with Crockett downplaying the size of the semi-serrated, 5-inch pocket knife Anthony was convicted of plunging into Metcalf’s chest during a dispute at a...
