ESPN has built a culture of racism at the network, leading its personalities to become some of the most toxic in all of media. The latest example of this comes from the latest Caitlin Clark nontroversy. In her first game of the season, Clark fouled Angel Reese, who flopped and then tried to start a confrontation. Clark was given a flagrant foul mostly due to Reese’s overreaction, as the foul was a typical foul you would see in any basketball game. Former ESPN personality Robert Griffin III said in the aftermath that Reese “hates” Clark, which is not a crazy...

The South African president’s office vowed Wednesday to fight the “treasonous act of misinformation,” which it blames for spreading abroad what it considers false narratives about the persecution of white Afrikaners. The warning came two days after the first charter flight of several dozen Afrikaner refugees arrived in the U.S. On Tuesday, President Cyril Ramaphosa called the refugees “cowards” for “running away” — a sentiment that his party, the African National Congress (ANC), echoed. The ANC claimed that the Afrikaners were not being persecuted, while faulting them for abandoning “transformation,” a policy of racial economic redistribution. Ramaphosa’s representative, Minister in...

Angel Reese ratcheted up her feud with Caitlin Clark on Tuesday as she re-posted a TikTok trolling her 'white girl' rival. The pair clashed over the weekend, as Clark was assessed a flagrant foul for slapping across Reese's arm and ultimately sending her to the ground. An incensed Reese then beelined for Clark when she got up before others intervened to keep them separated. And while Reese later said the foul from Clark was a 'basketball play,' she's evidently still thinking about the moment, as she re-posted a video insulting Clark.

Democratic strategist James Carville said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that the Trump administration charged Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) with assault because of her race. Carville said, “This is my personal opinion, I think they went after her, and I think her race has something to do with it. I’ll just flat out and say that. It’s my point of view.” Host Ari Melber said, “You’re of the view that you’re asserting that the Trump administration or DOJ is targeting her racially. Why do you assert that?” Carville said, “Because that’s what they’re about, and they’re trying to show it’s...

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) made some controversial statements on Sunday while speaking about why he hires so many black citizens to work for the city. While speaking to the congregation at the Apostolic Church of God in Woodlawn, Johnson made statements that brought criticism online, MRC-TV reported on Monday. “Some detractors that will push back on me and say, ‘The only thing the mayor talks about is the hiring of black people.’ No, what I’m saying is when you hire our people we always look out for everybody else. We are the most generous people on the planet,” Johnson...

A teenage motorist who followed and rammed an e-bike rider to 'teach him a lesson' after he pulled a wheelie has been jailed for life for murder. Abdirahman Ibrahim, who was 19 at the time, chased after Liam Jones before twice driving into the back of his off-road electric bike, the second time catapulting him into a concrete bollard. Mr Jones, 22, suffered catastrophic chest and abdominal injuries and was left to die in the road after Ibrahim fled the scene.

Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that former President Joe Biden should have dropped out of the 2024 presidential race earlier so Democrats could have had a primary. Host Kristen Welker said, “Senator, would the party have had a better chance at winning in 2024 had President Biden dropped out sooner?” Klobuchar said, “You know, everything we look at in a rear-view mirror after you lose an election. Yes, we would have been served better by a primary, but we are where we are. We’re not on the History Channel right now, and I believe...

It aims to ensure that everyone had access to skills that would help them benefit from the digital economy, and Mr. Trump slammed it as “unconstitutional.” “No more work handouts based on race! The Digital Equity Program is a RACIST and ILLEGAL $2.5 BILLION DOLLAR giveaway,” he wrote. “I am ending this IMMEDIATELY and saving Taxpayers BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!”

Relatives of Ashlee Long, 28, gasped in the Dallas courtroom on Wednesday as the prosecution played the sickening video of her final moments, WFAA reports. Long was killed while her boyfriend, William Kistler, was wounded, after prosecutors say Kendrick Finch, 34, shot them both during horrifying scenes in Downtown Dallas on April 5.

Former President Joe Biden told the far-left BBC waiting to drop out of the 2024 presidential race until just a few months before Election Day made no difference to the outcome. “I don’t think it would’ve mattered,” Biden answered when asked if he’d waited too long to withdraw. “We left at a time when [trails off] we had a good candidate. She was fully funded. And what happened was, I had become—what we had set out to do, no one told me to do, we’d become so successful, our agenda was hard to say ‘I wanna stop now.’” He rambled...

On his program Tuesday, Morgan asked Gaddis why she 'would want to support a white racist - to which she replied, 'Because I want to support free speech.' Gaddis, though, seemed unfazed - and said she would 'embrace' the title 'if that means helping white people achieve freedom of speech - real freedom of speech.' 'Do you understand that makes you a despicable human being?' Morgan asked her.

About a month ago, the world was treated to the spectacle of a little punk named Karmelo Anthony stabbing to death a young White man named Austin Metcalf in a dispute that took place at a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas. Anthony was inside another school’s tent and was asked to leave by Metcalf, but refused to do so. When Metcalf went to pick up Anthony’s backpack to encourage him to leave, he pulled out a knife and stabbed Metcalf multiple times, who died on the spot. For reasons that are inscrutable to the average normie but apparent...

Who are the sinners in the title of Ryan Coogler’s astonishing new film? Early scenes offer us a few good suspects. There’s the local white grandee, Hogwood, a jovial, jowly menace who agrees to sell his mill to Elijah and Elias Moore, local Black twins better known as Smoke and Stack. The film takes place over a single day in October of 1932, in Clarksdale, Mississippi, and most of its characters are impoverished Black sharecroppers still living on plantations. So it’s tempting to see Hogwood, in a tan Stetson hat and a wolfish grin, as the embodiment of America’s cardinal...

CNN host Amber Ruffin said Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that she felt “less welcome” under President Donald Trump while discussing being removed as the host of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Ruffin said, “They were, like, look, you were running your mouth in these streets, and now you can’t host the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, and I was like, oh, no, you know, this is horrible. I was running my mouth, and I was being careless. Then, as the day went on, people were like your free speech has been revoked. How dare they. Then I was like, oh,...

A white mother from Austin, Texas, was allegedly murdered by a black career criminal — and once again, the propaganda media shrugs their shoulders, while the politicians look the other way. In today’s upside-down America, there’s only outrage when it fits the regime’s narrative. We all know by now that if the races were reversed, this story would be flooding every news channel, with riots raging in the streets. But when a white victim dies at the hands of a violent black criminal, the media does everything it can to bury it — or worse, pretend that it’s an isolated...

The story of Black conservatism begins in the aftermath of the Civil War. Freedmen who sought to rebuild their lives aligned with the Republican Party—the party of Lincoln—championing abolition, civil rights, and Reconstruction. Leaders like Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington personified this era, urging self-reliance, education, and economic empowerment as the path to equality. Yet, by the mid-20th century, the tectonic plates of American politics shifted. The Great Depression, the New Deal, and the Civil Rights Era drew Black Americans into the Democratic fold. The Republican Party’s pivot toward a “Southern Strategy” further alienated Black voters, leading to the...

A black DJ and TikTok influencer with over a million followers has threatened to stab white people in the heart like Karmelo Anthony did to Austin Metcalf. The shocking threat was posted by Patrick Jeanty Jr., who uses the TikTok handle “KingJeanty1989.” In a viral video responding to the murder, Jeanty asserted he will also kill white people who “bully,” “harass,” or “approach” him.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Campus mentors. Move-in events. Scholarships. Diversity offices that made them feel welcome on predominantly white campuses. As U.S. colleges pull back on diversity, equity and inclusion practices, students of color say they are starting to lose all of these things and more. The full scope of campus DEI rollbacks is still emerging as colleges respond to the Trump administration’s orders against diversity practices. But students at some schools said early cuts are chipping away at the sense of community that helped open the door to higher education. “It feels like we’re going back. I don’t know how...

In an interview with KOLD-TV, Kristen Couch said a man attacked her husband at a bus stop as he bent down to pick something up, defenseless. "Seeing your husband get almost decapitated and being the only one to help like it's, hard," she told the outlet. A GoFundMe account set up by the family has raised just over $42,000. The money will allow the family to travel to and stay in Arizona as they plan to bring Jacob and Kristen home. According to the post, additional money will be used for funeral expenses. The campaign, which was started by the

Ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo would prevail over socialist Zohran Mamdani in a ranked-choice voting Democratic primary for mayor, according to a new poll released Tuesday. Cuomo led Mamdani 34% to 16% when voters were asked about their first choice even as Mamdani chipped away at Cuomo’s dominance in early polling, the Siena College/AARP survey of 556 registered city Democrats found. Three other candidates in the crowded primary each got 6% support — city Comptroller Brad Lander, his predecessor Scott Stringer and Council Speaker Adrienne Adams. State Sens. Zellnor Myrie and Jessica Ramos received 4% apiece, according to the survey.
