The Texas judge who reduced the $1 million bond for 17-year-old Austin Metcalf’s accused killer was targeted in a doxxing hoax, KDFW reported. The Collin County Sheriff’s Office, in coordination with the FBI, is investigating the alleged doxxing of Collin County Judge Angela Tucker, who agreed to significantly reduce Frisco track meet stabbing suspect 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony’s bond. “Due to the nature of the situation, we are coordinating with the FBI and our Fusion Center to monitor for any concerning rhetoric or propaganda that could incite violence,” the sheriff’s office told KDFW. Doxxing, defined as a form of cyberbullying, involves...

The Alabama father who was nearly decapitated by a hatchet-wielding maniac died of his injuries Thursday night, almost two weeks after the unprovoked attack at an Arizona bus stop, his family announced. Jacob Couch was pronounced dead at Banner University Medical Center in Tucson, Arizona, where he had been on life support since April 5 until his heart gave out, KOLD reported. “I can’t believe we made it 11 years. I always thought we would have so many more. I’ll love you forever and always,” his wife Kristen Couch wrote on Facebook. The 32-year-old was left in critical condition after...

Should Democrats worry about this new poll result from Cygnal? You'd better believe it, especially given the survey's juxtaposition with Donald Trump's first fortnight of executive actions. It turns out that real leadership and action appeal to more than just Maxine Dexter's reproductive senses. In a survey taken after Trump ordered an end to affirmative action, 42% of black men rated Trump favorably, an all-time high for this series. In fact, during most of Trump's first term, he'd have been fortunate to get to 42% favorable overall. Trump's support in the full electorate is also accelerating, Cygnal found:Black Men Love...

A female solo traveller has revealed the one destination she will never visit again. Sharing to over one million viewers on TikTok, @whereismalikah revealed how she was ‘treated like dirt by other black people in Saint Kitts.’ Introducing the video, she said: ‘You guys love to ask me what the most racist places I’ve been to are, how the racism is in different countries especially since I have lived in and travelled to a lot of countries.

A criminal-coddling Big Apple judge with just 13 months on the bench has already sprung at least three maniacs — including the unhinged nutter who allegedly pushed a woman into a moving subway this week, The Post has learned. Judge Marva Brown cut loose Markeese Brazelis on a 3rd-degree sexual abuse charge last week for groping a woman on a C train platform at West 50th Street and Eighth Avenue, despite the charge being bail-eligible, according to court records and law enforcement sources. Four days later, Brazelis, 26, allegedly shoved a 23-year-old straphanger into the side of a speeding A...

The Nashville high school where a teen gunman killed a fellow student last week had no metal detectors — apparently because administrators think they could be racist.A former board member told The Post that the misguided administrators are responsible for keeping them out even over many parents’ objections. “I knew this day was gonna happen,” said Fran Bush, formerly a Metro Nashville Public Schools board member. Bush, who served on the MNPS board from 2018 to 2022, said she pushed for metal detectors throughout her tenure but that district Director Adrienne Battle “didn’t want to hear it” — even as...

A mob of gleeful onlookers laughed at and mocked a cop lying unconscious on the ground after he was hurled from a speeding car while trying to arrest a woman in Texas early Friday, disturbing video shows. The video from Beaumont first shows a woman running across a parking lot and hopping into an open convertible, chased by a police officer. When the officer tries to leap into the car’s back seat to stop her, the woman hits the gas, sending the cop flying head-first into the pavement. As the officer — who suffered a serious head injury, authorities said...

Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) commended President Biden Monday for commuting the sentences of 37 federal inmates on death row, arguing that capital punishment is “racist.” *** Pressley, 50, described the 82-year-old commander in chief’s decision to spare dozens of convicted murderers and rapists from death as a “historic and groundbreaking act of compassion that will save lives, address the deep racial disparities in our criminal legal system, and send a powerful message about redemption, decency, and humanity.” “The death penalty is a racist, flawed, and fundamentally unjust punishment that has no place in any society,” the congresswoman argued. “For far...

As President-elect Donald Trump fills out his Cabinet and chooses his closet advisers ahead of Inauguration Day, many African American leaders are asking why more Black people haven't been appointed to key positions. ABC News spoke to more than a half dozen longtime and new African American conservatives and Republicans within Trumpworld, in and outside of Washington. Last month, the president-elect appointed Scott Turner, who was executive director of the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council during Trump's first term, to serve as secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development. ...

This Trump ad features a Black mother named Cheree Peoples, who was arrested in 2013 under a truancy program that Kamala Harris pushed for while California's Attorney General. Passed in 2011, the law allowed district attorneys to charge parents with a misdemeanor if their children missed 10 percent of the school year without a valid reason. Peoples says the program disproportionately affected families of color.

There's a lot of polling data floating around out there that looks very encouraging for GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump in terms of who has the most momentum heading into Election Day, who seems to be connecting best with the voters they need to, whose ground game appears to have the edge, etc.Understandably, conservatives are very wary of being given too much in the way of good news in one direction after the "Red Wave" of 2022 that never really materialized. There's a real concern out there of a repeat of that in 2024, where GOP voters excitedly tune in...

The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has admitted to holding former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon illegally, in violation of the First Step Act (FSA) of 2018. The First Step Act, which was signed by President Trump, reduced mandatory minimum sentences and expanded the safety valve. The safety valve allows courts to sentence low-level, nonviolent drug offenders to less than the required mandatory minimum. A letter obtained by The Tennessee Star, addressed to Bannon’s legal team, confirms that Bannon, who was due for early release under accrued good time credits, has not been released due to bureaucratic delays purportedly caused...

If true, then the 2024 election cycle could shift from merely forgettable for Democrats to downright catastrophic. They have based their electoral strategy on decades of near-total domination of the black-voter demographic to maintain their grip on power. While that applies to municipal elections in big cities, it applies even more to presidential elections. Four years ago, Democrats leveraged that into a stunning win in Georgia, normally a safe state for Republicans in presidential cycles. Joe Biden eked out a narrow 0.3-point margin of victory created mainly by a massive turnout of black voters against Donald Trump, winning 83% of...

Black Americans are the only racial demographic told rather than persuaded how to vote.I stopped blindly supporting Democrats for many reasons, but their obsession with identity politics tops the list.Race has always been a component of political discussion. But even as a black man, it always seemed to me like an appetizer, not the entrée. Now instead of aiming for common-sense policies that benefit the most people, Democrats carve out niche superficial interests that benefit barely anyone. Kamala Harris is both a beneficiary and the perpetrator of the Democrat Party’s identity infatuation. Harris plays the identity politics game, pretending she’s...

Barack Obama has drawn fury form black men after he launched an astonishing attack claiming that 'brothers' who don't vote for Kamala Harris are sexist. The former president, 63, addressed supporters during a campaign stop in Pittsburgh last week, where he claimed that there was a lack of enthusiasm for the vice president 'that seems to be more pronounced with the brothers.' Obama said: 'You're thinking about sitting out or supporting somebody who has a history of denigrating you, because you think that´s a sign of strength, because that's what being a man is? Putting women down? That´s not acceptable.'...

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris will next week highlight her economic policies that benefit Black men, hoping to energize a voting bloc that some advisers fear has embraced Republican rival Donald Trump in large numbers, three sources familiar with the plans said. The policy focus will coincide with an event in Detroit on Tuesday where Harris will be interviewed by popular Black radio personality Charlamagne tha God, who has been critical of the Biden administration, the sources said. … Over a quarter of young Black men say they would support Trump in the election race, a September poll by the...

"Former President Barack Obama has a “tough talk” at the Black voters for Harris event in East Liberty. He addressed that Black men have not been as enthused about Harris as during his first run, and he sought to encourage them to join Harris’ movement" Ryan Deto X

A judge in Washington state released a teen one day after his arrest for allegedly stabbing a 65-year-old veteran to death at a home. On Friday, the Renton Police Department said 19-year-old K’Shawn Konscience Jimerson called 911 just after 2 p.m. and told the operator he had stabbed someone and would be standing “outside with the knife.” Jimerson also claimed self-defense during the call, police said. “The 911 caller said that they had stabbed the handyman inside the house,” *** Witnesses told police they heard arguing and then saw Jimerson with a large butcher knife and covered in blood, FOX...

It’s election time again and that means it's time for the Democrats' regular pilgrimage to black communities to remind them of our sad state of affairs where racist evildoers -- Republicans of course -- actively work to keep black people down. And the only hope for relief is by voting for Democrats -- who, by the way, have run the country for 12 of the last 16 years. This race-baiting is disgusting but is what even more disgusting is that large portions of the black community buy into it. Due to the sad state of this country’s K-12 public education...

Tren De Aragua, or TDA, is notorious for their "brutal violence and murder.".. Chicago gang members and ex-convicts are warning of coming violent turf wars with newly arrived Venezuelan migrants who are part of the notorious gang Tren De Aragua, or TDA. Not unlike other cities across the country, Chicago has been inundated with migrants as the border crisis rages on. Since 2022, an estimated 48,000 migrants have come to the city, with the majority of new migrant arrivals hailing from Venezuela. “When the black gangs here get fed up with the illegalities and criminal activities of these migrants or...
