Radical Vegan Transgender Death Cult Update: Brainwashed Zombie Praises ‘Ziz’ and Denies Killing Her Own Parents

It’s been two months since I covered the first court hearing for the three members of the “Zizian” cult, currently jailed in Allegany County, Maryland, and there have been a few developments since then worth noting. Last month, various gun-related charges were added to those already faced by Jack “Ziz” LaSota, Michelle Zajko and Daniel […]

The Intersection of Rage and Ignorance

Tempted as I am to blame “misinformation” for this, the facts of the Kyle Rittenhouse case were accurately reported in dozens of major media outlets, so there is no excuse for these people who somehow got the idea that Rittenhouse “murdered . . . black kids in Michigan during a protest.” Just to reiterate: The […]

Cody Balmer Update: Crazy, Yes, But Also Ranting About ‘the Palestinian People’

After Tuesday’s victory lap — in which I congratulated myself for deducing that Cody Balmer was mentally ill — it is now time for me to eat some crow for dessert, as it turns out that the arsonist who lit up the Pennsylvania governor’s mansion also had a political agenda: The madman who carried out […]

Why Media Bias Matters

Say hello to Noah Madrano and, while you’re at it, go ahead and say good-bye, because it’s highly unlikely you’re ever going to see him unless somehow you get sentenced to federal prison, where he’s going to be serving a 50-year sentence for “his heinous crimes”: PORTLAND, Ore. — A Gladstone, Oregon man was sentenced […]

Texas Murder: An Exclamation Point on My Argument About ‘Adolescence’

Matt Walsh’s Daily Wire article is “members only,” so in case you’ve been hiding under a rock — or getting your news from the mainstream media — I’ll summarize what happened in Frisco, Texas, this week: A high school junior, Austin Metcalf, was stabbed to death Wednesday morning at a track meet by a senior […]

‘A Dumpster Fire of Lies’: Netflix Series Race-Swaps British Crime Trend, Journalists Treat It Like a Documentary

When I first encountered the online buzz around the new Netflix series Adolescence, I didn’t have a strong reaction. Streaming services have replaced TV and movies as the primary pop culture sources of entertainment, but it’s been many years since I paid much attention to such things.
