After years of Russiagate conspiracy theories about how the Russians had somehow rigged the 2016 presidential election using Facebook ads, the Senate Intelligence report awkwardly revealed that the Russian operation had focused most of its attention on black nationalists. The Senate report revealed that "most of the videos" put out by the Russian IRA troll factory on YouTube "pertained to police brutality and the activist efforts of the Black Lives Matter organization" and found that "no single group of Americans was targeted... more than African-Americans" around "race and related issues". But that was an understatement. The Russians had created their...

When a new book came out, the great C. S. Lewis would first seek out an old one on the same subject. That’s good advice for embattled Americans. In fact, two old books address what is happening today with rare perception. Regent College Publishing has reissued The Green Stick and The Infernal Grove, the two volumes of Chronicles of Wasted Time by Malcolm Muggeridge. Paul Johnson called it one of the great autobiographies of our time, which might be an understatement. Wisdom and wit leap off the pages, and there’s even a news hook: Russia has invaded Ukraine and that...

n antisemitic New Jersey man went on a shocking hours-long crime spree targeting Hasidic Jews — having warned his family to expect “a blood bath,” according to police documents. Dion Marsh, 27, was charged with three counts of attempted murder as well as bias intimidation for allegedly running down two men and stabbing another in the chest on Saturday, Ocean County prosecutors said. The spree started with a violent carjacking in Lakewood Township just after 1 p.m. — and only ended nearly 10 hours later when he was arrested at home in Manchester, prosecutors said. Two of his victims —...

As New Yorkers confront the latest in what seems like an unceasing stream of increasingly gruesome and brutal crimes (unfolding during the opening months of former NYPD Captain and newly inaugurated Mayor Eric Adams, who has promised to combat crime), law enforcement is facing up to the realization that the suspect (as is tragically common in mass shootings and other incidents of ‘terrorism’ extreme violence) had previously set off flags that probably should have warranted a closer look. It started yesterday with Newsweek reporting that the suspect (still at large) in the shooting – Frank James – had been investigated...

When a crime is committed by someone with progressive values, the media is “suddenly uninterested,” says Sky News host Rita Panahi. “Are you surprised at how quickly the Brooklyn subway shooting has disappeared from the headlines,” Ms Panahi said. “You’d think what looks like a clear case of domestic terrorism in New York would be worthy of far greater coverage. “You can be certain that if Frank James had posted any pro-Trump material online, his face would be plastered on front pages around the world.” Panahi goes through media coverage of a bunch of killings committed by leftists. She places...

The media has ignored Brooklyn subway shooting suspect Frank James' history of racism against white people. “The videos he posted frequently devolved into outbursts of homophobia, misogyny and offensive comments about Black people, Hispanic people and white people,” the New York Times writes about Frank James, the suspect in the subway terrorist attack. “Mr. James, who is Black, directed much of his hatred toward Black people, whom he often blamed for the way they were treated in the United States.”

The madman who opened fire on a Brooklyn subway car, shooting 10 and leaving another 19 wounded, has been taken into custody, law enforcement sources told The Post. Frank James, 62, is the prime suspect in Tuesday’s attack and has been on the lam for more than 24 hours after he allegedly disguised himself as a construction worker and fired 33 rounds onboard a Manhattan-bound N train in Sunset Park during the early-morning rush. Early Wednesday, police received a Crime Stoppers tip from someone who claimed they spotted James at a McDonald’s on East 6th Street and First Avenue in...

It's almost funny how the NYT won't actually tell you what this person's views really are, and who the targets of his hate are. https://t.co/zDBrF3efyZ— Andrew Sullivan (@sullydish) April 13, 2022

NYPD Crime Stoppers posted images of a person of interest in Tuesday’s Brooklyn subway shooting: 62-year-old Frank James. The New York Police Department and other law enforcement factions are offering a total of $50,000 for information leading to his arrest .............. Frank James appears to be a fan of black nationalism according to his social media posts MORE– Frank James was on the FBI’s terrorist radar until 2019. The FBI missed another one!

“I’m 63 now full of hate, full of anger, and full of bitterness.” He also criticized the mayor for not doing more to combat homelessness. “Eric Adams, Eric Adams: What are you doing brother? What’s happening with this homeless situation,” he said while referring to the subway. “Every car I went to was loaded with homeless people. It was so bad I couldn’t even stand. I had to keep moving from car to car.” [cut] “What’s going on in that place is violence,” he said about a facility he claimed to receive care from. “Not physical violence,” he explained, “but...

James sounds very much like other ideologically fixated, identity-obsessed killers who have emerged since the BLM-Antifa racial movement of 2020 and the hate speech it unleashed. Like Darrell Brooks Jr., who allegedly plowed his car into the Waukesha Christmas parade last November, and Noah Green, the Nation of Islam adherent who rammed Capitol Police last April in a quickly memory-holed attack, James espoused the rancid, racist ideology of black supremacy, once known officially as "black identity extremism," which we have been assured by the FBI and other legal experts doesn't exist.

MILWAUKEE, WI. – The smoke bombs used by the crazed man accused in the Brooklyn subway shooting were purchased at a store in Wisconsin, not far from the site of the 2020 Kenosha shootings. Frank James, 62, who’s been hit with federal terror-related offenses over the N-train bloodshed, bought the smoke bombs and other fireworks on June 21, 2021 at Phantom Fireworks in Racine County, according to a receipt of his purchase obtained by The Post.

I’ve been exposed to Tariq Nasheed’s extremism, and racism. I’ve been attacked by him. Now that’s it’s clear that he radicalized a black nationalist terrorist (with the help from Farrakhan), can @TwitterSafety recognize the filth on the platform, and remove it? #BrooklynSubway— ((( Rebecca ))) 🍀 🏀 (@dorothyofisrael) April 13, 2022

The madman who opened fire on a Brooklyn subway car and left 29 injured, 10 of them shot has been taken into custody, law enforcement sources told The Post.Frank James, 62, was named by cops as the sole person of interest after a man in a gas mask, helmet, and neon construction vest threw two smoke grenades and opened fire on straphangers while riding the Manhattan-bound N train just before 8:30 a.m.James rented a U-Haul van linked to the attack, authorities said during a news conference on Tuesday.The suspect had posted several rambling conspiracy-laden YouTube videos, railing against the city’s...

Given Sarsour’s record – supporting antisemite Louis Farrakhan, invoking “Jewish supremacy,” saying Zionists cannot be feminists, and supporting Palestinian terrorist Rasmea Odeh, this is an accurate representation of her views. Beyond that, she has publicly praised a misogynist and anti-gay Muslim cleric, Imam Siraj Wahhaj, as her mentor.

Multiple shootings, possible explosives. More to come.

In response to a question about one of her previous judicial rulings, Biden Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson asserted that the Black Hebrew Israelite group is a cultural and not religious group that is based on veganism and a healthy lifestyle. In fact, the group is far from being that. The Anti-Defamation League says the Black Hebrew Israelites are of a “fringe religious movement that rejects widely accepted definitions of Judaism and asserts that people of color are the true children of Israel.” “BHI teachings become explicitly hateful when coupled with racial superiority and accusations against white individuals and...

In a four-hour speech peppered with antisemitic rhetoric, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan attacked the United States, accusing it of harming and killing millions of people domestically and “around the world” while claiming the country has yet to pay for its crimes and would fall along with Russia and “all white power,” with the recent conflict in Ukraine paving the way.

Human remains found in a trash bag nearly 40 years ago have been identified as those of Frank “Frankie” Little Jr., a guitarist and songwriter for the R&B group The O’Jays, police said. The partial remains - first discovered in February 1982 in a garbage bag behind a now-shuttered business in Twinsburg, Ohio - were identified as Little’s using DNA provided by a close relative, police said in a statement Tuesday. “In October 2021, the DNA Doe Project provided the names of potential living relatives, who were able to provide Frank’s name,” Twinsburg police said, adding that Little’s identity was...

Two men convicted in the assassination of Malcolm X are set to be exonerated after more than 55 years, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office said Wednesday. Muhammad Aziz, 83, and the late Khalil Islam — who spent decades in prison for the crime — will have their convictions tossed on Thursday, following a nearly two-year investigation into the 1965 killing of the civil rights leader. The DA’s office began reviewing the case in February 2020, in the wake of the Netflix documentary series “Who Killed Malcolm X?” — which followed historian Abdur-Rahman Muhammad’s quest for answers about the notorious murde
