What kind of a place is Fox News? These allegations keep on coming. Some excerpts: [C]ommencing in February 2016, Bill O’Reilly (“O’Reilly”), whom Tantaros had considered to be a good friend and a person from whom she sought career guidance, started sexually harassing her by, inter alia, (a) asking her to come to stay with him on Long Island where … Read More

Was Mrs. Trump An “Illegal”?
Nude photos of Mrs. Trump, recently published in the New York Post, raised some questions regarding her immigration status at one time, before she married Donald Trump. If true, Trump may have literally married an undocumented worker who lied to enter the country under false pretenses and then failed to disclose that lie when later getting a green card and eventually … Read More
Should Miss Teen USA Forfeit Her Crown?
As 18-year-old Texan Karlie Hay celebrated being crowned Miss Teen USA 2016 last Saturday, social media users began circulating tweets containing the N-word that were linked to an account bearing her name. The offending tweets were posted in 2013 and 2014. That Twitter account is now private and locked, but Hay issued an apology early Sunday morning on her public … Read More
50 Years Ago Today
Fifty years ago today, Charles Whitman, a 25-year-old engineering student and former Marine armed with a small arsenal of weapons, killed 13 people and wounded over 30 more during a shooting rampage atop the University of Texas Tower in Austin. The episode casts a long and complicated shadow. It is considered by some to have marked the beginning of the … Read More
Breaking: 4th Circuit Overturns Lower Court; Finds That GOP “Intentionally” Passed “Discriminatory” Voting Rights Law
The United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit invalidated North Carolina’s stringent new voting restrictions, holding that the law violates both the United States Constitution and the Voting Rights Act. The North Carolina measure, the Fourth Circuit held, has a discriminatory impact on black voters, impermissibly burdening their voting rights under the VRA. More boldly, the court also … Read More
He Did Everything Right But Got Shot Anyway
Charles Kinsey, a behavioral therapist who was trying to help an autistic patient who had wandered away from a group home, did everything right when confronted by cops with guns drawn.

Editorial From The Christian Post
Ouch: Editors’ Note: The Christian Post has not taken a position on a political candidate before today. We are making an exception because Trump is exceptionally bad and claims to speak for and represent the interests of evangelicals. We the senior editors of The Christian Post encourage our readers to back away from Donald Trump. As the most popular evangelical … Read More
Unity In Color, At Least
Salon: At last official count, there were expected to be a total of 18 black delegates at the Republican National Convention this week. Yes, eighteen, or roughly 0.7 percent of the 2,472 national delegates in Cleveland. *** According to the best estimate we have, the share of black delegates at this week’s GOP convention is lower than any time it … Read More
Same Actor – 52 Years Apart
What is odd to me is this: the new ad uses some of the same language of the old one. Except they decided not to use this: “I mean, when the head of the Ku Klux Klan, when all these weird groups, come out in favor of the candidate of my party, either they’re not Republicans or I’m not.” A … Read More
He Who Lives By The Sword?
You don’t want to slander the dead, but if this is true, then I suppose it wouldn’t be a slander. What am I talking about? An awkward but somewhat convincing article that Lorne Ahrens, one of the five Dallas cops killed last week by Micah Xavier Johnson, was a white supremacist. Let’s be clear. Murder is murder. Even if Ahrens was a … Read More
Picture Of The Year?
“They’re not protesters. You know, these are thugs, they’re rioters. And yeah, I’m calling out the media, saying quit claiming that these rioters are people. They’re stomping on a flag — figuratively and literally — shouting ‘death to cops’, celebrating violence.” – Sarah Palin on Black Lives Matter Protesters
More and More, It Looks Like The Dallas Cop Killer Was A Nut
Dallas police now believe that Micah Johnson, who shot and killed 5 Dallas police following a Black Lives Matter march, was actually planning some sort of mass attack, but advanced his plans to take advantage of the BLM march. His house was full of bomb making equipment, far too much to have put together in recent days. He had received … Read More
