What Was George Floyd Doing?

Most people seem to believe that Derek Chauvin is going to be found guilty, simply because of the emotional content of the testimony, and I suppose they’re right. Today, the prosecution called George Floyd’s girlfriend as a witness, and she boo-hooed during most of her testimony, which was characterized in the media as being about […]

Criminal Dies in Minnesota Shootout

It’s always heartwarming news when cops shoot a white criminal. CNN won’t notice and there won’t be any riots — no “say his name” hashtags on behalf of Dominic Lucas Koch, who was 27 when he died of multiple gunshots after leading police on a 40-mile chase in Minnesota. We’ll get to the events that […]

Liberal Idiot: ‘There Are Proven Strategies to Interrupt These Cycles of Violence’

Perhaps you have forgotten the name Lisa Bender. Over the summer, the president of the Minneapolis City Council became a symbol of liberal idiocy, when she was interviewed on CNN saying that she could “imagine a police-free future.” Since then, not surprisingly, violent crime in Minneapolis has skyrocketed.

The Biden Agenda: ‘South Minneapolis Is Worse Than I’ve Ever Seen It’

One alleged ballot harvester, Liban Mohamed, the brother of Minneapolis city council […]

George Floyd Mug Shot

  That’s a photo from the Houston Police Department, where George Floyd was arrested in September 1998 on theft charges. Matt Berman was able to get multiple mug shots of Floyd from the Houston PD, which arrested Floyd on nine separate occasions between 1997 and 2009. Why haven’t Americans seen these mug shots before? Berman […]

‘I Also Hope to Keep a Steady High’

  Worrying about politics is a waste of time, and nobody who knew me when I was in college could ever have imagined that I would grow up to become a political journalist, wasting my time this way. My perspective on the political scene is idiosyncratic, simply because most people in this racket have been […]

Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes

  Matthew Lee Rupert is not exactly a criminal mastermind. His career of felonious stupidity began as a teenager, when he stole a van in his hometown of Galesburg, Illinois, and drove it into a ditch: The van was found in a ditch just outside of Galesburg. Police found Rupert walking in the area where […]
