Hey, Who Had ‘Illegal Immigrant Colombian Transgender Pedophile Rapist’ on Their 2025 Headline Bingo Card?

Congratulations, you’re a winner: A transgender migrant appeared in court [Thursday] after being arrested for raping a 14-year-old boy in a park bathroom. Nicol Suarez, 30, allegedly followed the boy into a bathroom at Thomas Jefferson Park in East Harlem back in February at around midday, police told the Daily Mail. The boy reportedly left […]

NYC Goes Full Zimbabwe

Never go full Zimbabwe. You can order a $10 trillion Zimbabwe note online for under $25, which is still more than its actual value as currency, but rather reflects what it’s worth as a collector’s item, a memento of the kleptocratic regime of Robert Mugabe. New York City doesn’t issue its own currency, so we […]

A Shootout in Carnarsie

The intersection of Flatlands Avenue and East 80th Street is probably not the worst part of Brooklyn, but it’s also not the best part of Brooklyn. Far be it from me to pretend to have any expert knowledge of Brooklyn neighborhoods. All I know on the subject, I learned via Google searches, which tells me […]

Antifa Assassin? Health Insurance CEO Gunned Down on Manhattan Street

A masked man using a pistol with a silencer murdered a health insurance CEO near the Hilton hotel on 6th Avenue in midtown Manhattan this morning, and Ace of Spades speculates that the gunman was Antifa, which might be the only political motive that makes sense, but I have no reason to suspect that this […]

Rigged Jury in Show Trial Delivers Guilty Verdict Demanded by Corrupt Judge

Was there ever any doubt about this predetermined outcome? The way that Judge Juan Merchan instructed the jury made anything but a guilty verdict impossible, if there was ever any doubt to begin with (which there wasn’t). As I explained 10 days ago: The evidence and testimony don’t matter, because the outcome was predetermined before […]

I’d Call This a Kangaroo Court, But That Would Be an Insult to Honest Kangaroos

Ed Morrisey points out that Alan Dershowitz has literally been practicing law since before Judge Juan Merchan was born. This lends greater gravity to what Dershowitz said on Hannity last night after spending Monday in Merchan’s courtroom for the Trump trial: “This judge has committed more reversible errors in the one day I was in […]

‘Get Trump’ Show Trial Continues

CNN takes this mockery of justice very seriously: The biggest questions as Donald Trump’s first criminal trial resumes Monday are whether his attorneys have destroyed the credibility of star witness Michael Cohen — and how much of the damage prosecutors can fix. The presumptive GOP presidential nominee is due back in court amid clear signs […]
