Michael English, a Democratic candidate running for mayor of Providence, is addressing renewed attention on a criminal record that includes child molestation convictions from the late 1990s. English has referred to the actions that led to his convictions as “immature decisions” that resulted in a “period of incarceration.” According to the Providence Journal, English was 26 when he engaged in a relationship with a 13-year-old. The outlet reported that after serving a little over a year in prison, English attempted to contact the victim again in 2009. The Providence Journal reviewed court documents related to the case, as English’s file...

Maine's Graham Platner is hardly the most extreme Democrat candidate running for office. Graham Platner, the oyster farmer running for the U.S. Senate in Maine, was exposed last month for making a number of damning comments on social media — including posts where he apparently identified as a communist, branded rural white Americans as racists, suggested that service members worried about being raped should buy "Kevlar underwear," and smeared all police officers as "bastards." Although he has since covered it up, Platner was also outed for having a tattoo of a skull image similar to that popularized by Adolf Hitler's...

Don't you think if 2 violent assassins were into http://GlennBeck.com subculture, the media and the FBI would be all over that?!(Transcribed by TurboScribe.ai. Go Unlimited to remove this message.) Independent researchers now are using the same kind of digital forensic tools that the feds have and they're piecing together a bunch of old online accounts tied directly to Crook's email, his real email and his name. And one of the biggest ones was on DeviantArt, ground zero for the furry community. Usernames like EpicMicrowave and TheEpicMicrowave. This kid was not casually browsing, he was deep in that subculture, we find...

A new bombshell has dropped in the case of Thomas Matthew Crooks, the individual who attempted to assassinate President Donald Trump at a campaign event in Butler, Pennsylvania, last year. Ever since the shooting, questions have remained about Crooks’ motive and his history. The government has not exactly been forthcoming with information about the would-be assassin. But a New York Post report has revealed details that have been hidden until now. Then-FBI Director Chris Wray told Congress after the July 13, 2024, attack that the bureau had found nothing in Crooks’ online history that pointed to a motive or political...

“Donald Trump's would-be assassin appears to have used 'they/them' pronouns on a website known for hosting pornographic 'furry' material. Thomas Crooks, who shot Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, at the height of the presidential campaign in 2024, is linked to the accounts 'epicmicrowave' and 'theepicmicrowave' on the website DeviantArt. The website hosts sexually explicit images of 'furries' - human-like animal characters. The accounts linked to Crooks used 'they/them' pronouns used by the transgender community and his activity suggested an interest in cartoon characters with ripped male physiques and female heads.”

A woman broke down in tears during a Thursday school board meeting in Royal Oak, Michigan, where multiple left-wing speakers demanded that a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) chapter be shut down. Officials at Royal Oak High School approved the chapter on Oct. 21, according to Fox News, prompting protests from left-wing students and groups, including a walkout. During the meeting, the woman claimed that the conservative-leaning student group would promote “radicalization” of students. “I’m a lifelong Royal Oak resident, a supporter of the Royal Oak community, as well as an advocate for young people. I too came to speak about...

Donald Trump barely survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13—a fatal headshot was missed by millimeters. The would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, was perched on an unprotected rooftop less than 200 yards from the rally stage. Secret Service snipers killed him during the attack. What was his motive? We don’t know the official narrative from federal authorities, which is becoming a recurring conclusion of such investigations by the FBI. Yet, a social media clue might point us in the right direction. It's a platform that has a disreputable reputation for being a haven for neo-Nazis and...

I don’t know what you did on Friday night, but I spent about 90 minutes in the vice president’s study with him and the men you see above, talking geopolitics, Hungary, and the survival of Christianity in Europe, among other things. Of course I can’t be indiscreet about the discussion, but it was rich and vigorous. I’m really glad that JD got to experience the actual, living Viktor Orban in person, and to see for himself how wrong the propaganda is. They got on very, very well. I was able to have a few minutes with the vice president before...

The “No Kings” protests have returned, and with that the Democrat geriatrics have as well, but this time with furries alongside in the trenches! The organized events across the United States are a protest of President Trump, whom leftist activists believe is acting like a king. I attended the Washington, DC, event and captured some photos of what appears to be a strange new alliance between the boomers and the furries: (Picture on link, try not to laugh)

A bomb on a local FOX 13 news van in Salt Lake City fizzled out instead of blowing up on Friday, and police have two suspects in custody. Suspected Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson is being held nearby. It was those sneaky Lutherans again. Just kidding. The suspects' names are Adeeb Nasir, age 58, and Adil Justice Ahmed Nasir, age 31. The story slipped under the radar over the weekend, but investigators found that the bomb "had been lit but failed to function as designed," according to court documents revealed by CBS affiliate KUTV early Monday. On Sunday, the FBI...

Accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson played pornographic “furry” games online and followed artists known to draw cartoons depicting pedophilia, according to a shocking report. Friends of the 22-year-old suspect told the Daily Mail that Robinson — who allegedly left a sex-related gaming message on a bullet casing used to kill Kirk — used the account name “craftin247″ on multiple gaming and online platforms where he engaged in the fringe “furry” subculture.

In a Daily Mail podcast, senior US news reporter Josh Boswell describes his investigation into Tyler Robinson's 'bizarre' internet activity, including his sexual interest in the 'furry' community. Boswell was the first investigative reporter to identify Robinson's roommate, 'trans gamer' Lance Twiggs, 22. Text messages reveal the two were in communication on September 10, the day right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk was killed. After identifying Twiggs using social media - who has not yet been charged with any crime in connection with the shooting - the investigative reporter was able to uncover various online accounts connected to Robinson.

Fans are not buying Jamie Lee Curtis' display of emotion over Charlie Kirk's death. The American actress and film producer recently shed tears over the political activist's gruesome death, saying that his assassination has been heavy on her mind Despite her raw display of emotions, Curtis is catching the heat from fans who believe that her sympathy is "out of touch" and misplaced.

Educators who fail to enforce the law could face fines, with penalties starting at $10,000. SNIP

LOS ANGELES – Four people who allegedly had a person dressed as a bear damaging their own luxury cars in a bid to defraud insurance companies were arrested in the US state of California on Nov 13. Suspicions were aroused when a claim was made for ripped seats and damaged doors on a luxury Rolls-Royce Ghost, an exclusive vehicle worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Claimants said a bear entered into the car when it was parked in Lake Arrowhead, a mountain spot outside Los Angeles, wreaking havoc on its interior. To back up their claim, they provided photos of...

Many readers are interested in how various handgun calibers have performed in defense against bears. This is a complicated subject. Sometimes, any caliber will do. Sometimes, a level of power may be required. Sometimes, a level of accuracy or speed may be required. Many permutations exist. The most important aspect, if a confrontation occurs, is to have a firearm available, easily and quickly accessible. The specific caliber is less important. These updates include all the incidents we have been able to document to the date of the update, after several years of intense searches. We have always asked for examples...

These dazzling minifigures are ready for Pride with their very own spectacular Pride celebration!” LEGO stated on its social-media accounts last week.

RainFurrest 2015 was one for the books. The convention, filled with full-grown adults dressed as bears, wearing diapers and taking drugs, catapulted the often sex-crazed subculture cast into the public eye. It was meant to be an annual convention designed for and by furries. But the debauchery that ensued left animal loving organizers banned from ever holding another event in the city of Seattle after brass at the hotel they defiled spread word about what happened the social gathering. Permanently plastered in the annals of internet history, the event started to go off the rails when someone purposely loosened a...

However, a message circulated by the administration to promote respect and tolerance was wildly misinterpreted. The school’s intent to foster “Outstanding behavior might demonstrate curiosity, understanding, patience and tolerance,” as Sorenson conveyed, was lost amid social media speculation and sensationalism. A Change.org petition titled “Students for Humans at School, not animals aka furries,” demanding the school ban furry costumes, gained traction despite the district’s clarification that no such costumes were worn or allowed at the school. Conservative social media personalities and local political figures stoked the flames. For instance, Adam Bartholomew, a radio host whose wife is running for a...
