In KC, a real racist killer faces trial
Deep in his Kansas City jail cell, Frederick Demond Scott has got to be a little envious. After threatening to “kill all white
people” and making a good start on his boast, the 20-something Scott hasn’t gotten 1/100th of the notoriety heaped on his fellow Kansas Citian, 84-year-old Andrew Lester.
As the world knows, Lester shot a black teenager he thought was an intruder, thank God not fatally. In fact, Ralph Yarl was home recuperating after a few days. Unlike Scott, whose motives were clear to everyone other than the media and the local prosecutor, Lester’s racism was simply assumed. For actual evidence, CNN could do no better than the testimony of Lester’s estranged grandson, the Satan-loving Clint Ludwig. “He’s just a stock white Christian male, older,” Ludwig told CNN’s Don Lemon. “That’s just how they are.” For further proof of grandad’s racism, Ludwig cited Lester’s watching of Fox News.
Mayor Pete and the Myth of the ‘Racist Highway’
In a November 2021 press conference, Grio reporter April Ryan asked Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg a question that seemed to make sense to him, if to no one else.
“Can you give us the construct,” Ryan asked, “of how you will deconstruct the racism that was built into the roadways?” To his credit, I suppose, Buttigieg had no trouble distilling the road construction question lost in the morass of Ryan’s amateur deconstructionism.
Responded a self-assured Buttigieg, “I’m still surprised that some people were surprised when I pointed to the fact that if a highway was built for the purpose of dividing a white and a black neighborhood…that that obviously reflects racism that went into those design choices.”
Overlooked in Mayor Pete’s response was the quietly subjunctive “if.” Although the notion of a “racist highway” has become accepted wisdom in Democratic circles, Buttigieg pulled his punches. And well he should have. In researching my forthcoming book, Untenable: The True Story of White Ethnic Flight from America’s Cities, I was able to identify any number of highways that damaged ethnic neighborhoods, including the New Jersey neighborhood in which I grew up, but none that divided white from black.
DOJ-Media-Intel Election Interference Predates Trump
Historians will have a hard time grappling with the enormity of the efforts by the media, the Department of Justice, and their allies in the intelligence community (IC) to stop Donald Trump. For a more manageable case study they would do well to look at the 2006 re-election campaign of then 10-term Pennsylvania Congressman Curt Weldon. Seventeen years later, Weldon has a lot to say—with more to come—about how this unholy cabal subverted the democracy its apparatchiks profess to champion.
Weldon recently sent me a video tribute made on his behalf in spring 2007 by then former president George H.W. Bush. The occasion was the annual symposium and dinner for the National Fire and Emergency Services, an organization Weldon, a volunteer fire chief, had been leading for the previous twenty years. Without a hint of irony, Bush praised Weldon for a legacy that left the nation “stronger, better, and safer” and wished him well on the “new chapter” in his life. What Bush did not tell the 2,000 fire service workers was that his son’s DOJ, working closely with the media and IC, had just executed a coup on their leader that necessitated this “new chapter.”

Why the FBI (and the pope!) fear traditional Catholics
Pope Benedict XVI championed the Latin Mass. Francis and the FBI fear it.
As was revealed this week by the House Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, the Richmond FBI office used at least one undercover agent to infiltrate a traditional Catholic Church.
In January of this year, a bizarrely hateful memo was issued by that same office warning of “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists in radical-traditionalist Catholic [communities].”
The memo, right out of the Mao playbook, also called for reaching out to diocesan leadership “to sensitize these congregations to the warning signs of radicalization and to enlist their assistance to serve as suspicious activity tripwires.”
The woke justice era the Trayvon case launched led to Trump
The real girlfriend on the left. The false witness on the right.
Scarily few people spotted the paradigm shift that inverted justice in 2012. This was the year the liberal left ceded control of the American media and the judicial system to woke activists.
If liberals saw themselves as Atticus Finch, sitting in front of the jailhouse, protecting the falsely accused Tom Robinson, the shrewdly woke saw themselves in the mob out front clamoring for Robinson’s head. Today that’s where the power is.
For nearly a century, leftists satisfied themselves with insisting on the innocence of the obviously guilty. This trend started in the 1920s with the Soviet-led lionization of Italian anarchists Nichola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, both ultimately executed for the murder of an Italian-American payroll clerk.
Intimidation of Matt Taibbi right out of IRS playbook
Quelle coincidence! On the very day media apostate Matt Taibbi was testifying before Congress on the weaponization of
intelligence, an IRS agent visited his New Jersey home and left a note telling him to contact the agency.
Who knew the IRS made house calls? Reportedly, the IRS rejected Taibbi’s 2018 and 2021 tax filings due to identity theft issues, but the home visit was the first Taibbi had heard of the problem.
Protested House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, “In light of the hostile reaction to Mr. Taibbi’s reporting among left-wing activists, and the IRS’s history as a tool of government abuse, the IRS’s action could be interpreted as an attempt to intimidate a witness before Congress.”
