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 […]

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 […]

The Worst Democrat in Congress?

The question mark in the headline is necessary because, of course, the competition for Worst Democrat in Congress is fierce. Ilhan Omar, Jamie Raskin, Eric Swalwell — it’s a tough league.

Neither victim was involved in the altercation that led to the shooting, police […]

Two Words: ‘General Population’

Say hello to Don Steven McDougal, 42, another repeat offender who never should have been let out of prison. Over the years, I’ve called attention to lots of criminals who fit this description. They keep getting turned loose until finally they commit an atrocity that makes nationwide headlines, but no matter how many times the […]
