The FBI has also opened a federal investigation into the incident, which occurred at around 3:00 a.m. July 26, in downtown Cincinnati, during the city’s Music Festival weekend. Ohio lawmaker Cecil Thomas (D) invited black leaders, representatives...

The family of one of the Cincinnati brawlers claimed the only reason the fight has garnered so much attention was because the person punched in the face is a white woman. Jermaine Matthews, 39, and Montianez Merriweather, 34, were initially charged with aggravated riot and assault after the massive brawl in the streets of Cincinnati, Ohio, went viral this week. Matthews, however, was hit with three more charges on Thursday - two felonious assault and one assault charge.

Black teens beat white bystanders in downtown Cincinnati as police, media, and public figures stay silent—revealing a dangerous double standard on racial violence. Recently, a large group of black youths began pummeling several white adults in downtown Cincinnati. The original altercation apparently broke out between a black and white male in he-said/he-said fashion. But that dispute soon turned into a virtual free-for-all. Numerous male and female black youths sucker-punched a middle-aged woman and a man. Others continued to kick or body slam the victims, who were sprawled on their backs and seemingly unconscious. There were many disturbing aspects to the...

A disturbing, racially charged street fight came out of Cincinnati this past weekend, with a man and woman beaten to a pulp even after being knocked unconscious. But this has been all but ignored by the corporate media. Why? Victor Davis Hanson says the fight does not align with their narrative of America as a place of “salad bowl tribal identification” instead of being a melting pot. He breaks down the disturbing implications of the fight and reaction on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ It was on Fox News and New York Post, etc.,...

Here’s a controversial one for you. A far-right group called Return to the Land (RTTL) has built a whites-only community in northeastern Arkansas and is planning to expand this concept to Missouri.RTTL characterizes itself as a “private membership association, (PMA)” according to The Independent. The objective is to build a refuge for folks with “traditional views and European ancestry.”The group, founded in 2023, has established two compounds in the Ozarks. Members live off the grid in a community with cabins, wells, and even a schoolhouse. It rejects multiculturalism, immigration, and “forced integration” and seeks to “separate ourselves from a failing...

I spend a lot of time talking about how western civilization – in particular as driven by the United States – is easily the greatest that mankind has yet created. If one looks at it objectively, it’s not even close. The list of things that are part of the everyday life of people around the world is basically a list of things that were invented or developed in the west. From cars to planes to advanced agriculture to elevators to plastic and mobile phones and computers and DNA and much, much more. But every now and then something happens that...

A former member of Houston’s Food Insecurity Board, Sade Perkins, has been removed from her position after posting a highly controversial and racially charged video mocking the victims of the tragic July 4th weekend flash floods along the Guadalupe River. The floods killed at least 82 people, including over two dozen children attending Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian camp near Kerrville, Texas. Perkins, who was appointed to the board in 2023 by then-Democratic Mayor Sylvester Turner, uploaded the video to her TikTok account, "sades_world8," before making it private. In the video, she made a series of inflammatory statements, drawing a...

The buildup to race socialism has been decades in the making, and Mamdani could be the politician to make it mainstream. The far-left publication Canadian Dimension published a column in February that called for a wealth tax and explicitly linked it to race: “It’s no secret that extreme wealth in western democracies is overwhelmingly held by white people, and Canada is no exception.” There is no doubt that Mamdani is a charismatic figure, with a readily deployable smile and a soft millennial bearing that makes him appear rather harmless. It is an excellent shield for a man whose ideology strays...

Much controversy has erupted over how certain WNBA players treat Caitlin Clark, a white athlete with the Indiana Fever, and many people are pointing to racism. But many people on the left insist that blacks can be prejudiced, but they can’t be racist. A former editorial editor at Harvard’s Crimson publication writes on the ideology here: As one African-American lead character from the 2014 movie ‘Dear White People’ argues, ‘Black people can’t be racist. Prejudiced, yes, but not racist. Racism describes a system of disadvantage based on race. Black people can’t be racists since we don’t stand to benefit from...

'Let's talk about basketball!' Caitlin Clark bristles in news conference Fever star Caitlin Clark gets frustrated with reporters for asking about scuffles with the Sun despite Indiana advancing to the Commissioner's Cup championship.

Israel says it first bombed Iran to stop it from being able to produce nuclear weapons and the “existential threat” they would represent. But the conflict may in the long run serve the opposite purpose: illustrating to Tehran and other nuclear-aspirant nations that nuclear weapons are essential in shielding them against attack. Countries such as North Korea already pointed to Libya, whose leader Moammar Gadhafi gave up his nascent weapons program but was toppled anyway in 2011 after a NATO intervention. That’s one of the reasons Pyongyang has developed its own arsenal — which is believed to have San Francisco...

Moniece Slaughter has gone on a serious rant online after her car was reportedly broken into. But it’s not just about the robbery; her comments about Black people have sparked major controversy and have a lot of people talking. After falling victim to a car break-in, she went on a scorched-earth rant that had social media gasping, critics furious, and Black Twitter calling for accountability. According to reports, Moniece took to her Instagram Story on Wednesday (April 30th) to vent about the people who broke into her truck and stole her belongings, including production equipment, a full talent wardrobe, props,...

Derek VanBuskirk, a reporter from the Daily Caller, was racially profiled by a black apparent South African while on his way to the country to investigate claims of genocide in the country. “After 30 hours of travel, I got here about an hour and a half ago. I actually have already been racially profiled,” VanBuskirk said in a video shared on X. “It actually happened in Paris as I was getting onto the plane.” VanBuskirk told his colleagues a black man with a what appeared to be a South African accent stopped him at the airport gate as he was...

Barack Obama’s legacy here started early. Not quite in office for six months Obama showed his hand with his characterization that “The police acted stupidly” about the arrest of Henry Louis Gates a professor at Harvard who, locked out of his house, broke in. A neighbor, not recognizing Gates, called 911. The police arrived and things didn’t go well and Gates was arrested. When asked about race and the incident a week later, Obama responded: "I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played in that. But I think it's fair to...

Here's NewsNation's Brian Entin reporting on an anonymous USDA whistleblower who is exposing the Biden regime's racism. Brian Entin @BrianEntin I met with a USDA whistleblower. He says the Biden administration forgave farm loans for only non-white farmers and when they were told it was illegal, continued to secretly do it. Kept it "hushed for the obvious implications of race based loan forgivingness." Full story: VIDEO AT LINK............. "It was to pay off anyone who wasn't a white male's loan. That was the only qualification for this loan forgiveness." That's all that it took to be qualified?? "They were trying...
