Breaking: Psychopathic Race-Murderer Karmelo Anthony Convicted of Brutal Killing of Innocent Athlete "Protesters," Get This, Begin Punching People; Police Are Arresting the Thugs
A Texas jury on Tuesday found Karmelo Anthony guilty of murder in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a Frisco high school track meet last year, concluding a closely watched trial that drew national attention over questions of race, self-defense and school safety.
The Collin County jury deliberated for about three hours before returning its unanimous verdict. The same jury will now decide Anthony's sentence. Under Texas law, a murder conviction is punishable by five to 99 years in state prison.
...
The case stems from a confrontation at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco on April 2, 2025, where Anthony, then a student at Frisco Centennial High School, and Metcalf, a student-athlete at Frisco Memorial High School, clashed under a team tent where athletes had gathered during inclement weather. The altercation ended when Metcalf was stabbed in the chest. Medical examiner testimony at trial revealed that Metcalf had been stabbed through the heart, with a two-inch wound described as "gaping."
Prosecutors characterized the stabbing as a provoked, unjustified "sneak attack" inside the team tent, while the defense argued it was a split-second act of self-defense born of fear and chaos. Anthony did not testify in his own defense.
...
Anthony, now 19, was convicted in Collin County District Court in McKinney. The sentencing phase, to be decided by the same jury, was expected to begin promptly given the speed of deliberations.
🚨 NOW: FIGHTS ARE BREAKING OUT and POLICE ARE MAKING SWIFT ARRESTS after Karmelo Anthony supporters RAGE at the guilty murder verdict in the trial of Austin Metcalf
Keep arresting!
Police are SWIFTLY trying to quell and violence and unrest 🙏🏻

Ex-Graham Platner campaign director says embattled Maine Dem 'shouldn't be a US senator': 'My concerns have only grown'
Graham Platner's ex-political director expressed her growing concern about the embattled Maine Democrat in a Washington Post op-ed Monday, arguing that her former boss "'shouldn't be a US senator."
"I quit the campaign in October, disturbed by what I learned about the candidate and concerned about his potential impact on the Democratic Party's prospects in my home state," Genevieve McDonald wrote. "As Tuesday's primary arrives, I want to make clear what transpired since August and why my concerns have only grown."
McDonald argued that Platner "exhibits a pattern of dishonest behavior that is impossible to ignore."
"Despite being exposed by a series of scandals beginning last October, he kept assuring voters and the Democratic Party that there were no more skeletons in his closet," she continued. "Then more emerged -- the latest, in recent days, have involved former girlfriends' serious accusations of physical mistreatment."
McDonald described herself as "one of the Platner campaign's first gaslighting casualties," claiming the candidate and his campaign dismissed her concerns about his Nazi tattoo and electability.
"I was willing to believe his explanations, I wanted to believe, until his flaws as a candidate became impossible to ignore," she wrote.
McDonald said she "realized the campaign had not been honest" when reports on Platner's disturbing Reddit post history started to surface.
She claims the Platner campaign offered her "$15,000 to sign a nondisclosure agreement," after her resignation, which she refused to do so, and that "over the past eight months, women have come to me with their own disturbing stories about Platner."
"Enough is enough," McDonald wrote.
...
Platner, a Marine veteran and former oyster farmer, has faced numerous controversies since launching his campaign, including the sexting scandal and Reddit posts he made downplaying sexual assault, mocking soldiers and contending that white Americans "actually are" racist and stupid, among others.
...
McDonald urged Democrats to "demand better from those entrusted with power or seeking it."
Maine Democrats are having concerns about the Nazi-tattooed woman-beating socialist violent revolutionary, on the day of the Maine primary.
Strong work, guys. Give yourselves all a bonus.
Platner's continued drumbeat of scandals has divided both Democratic Party leaders and voters as they stare down the must-win Senate race. Defeating Republican Sen. Susan Collins in November is crucial to the party's plans to take back control of the upper chamber and provide a check on President Donald Trump. But even as Platner's staunch supporters stick with him, his political baggage is threatening to sink him with some Democratic and independent voters heading into the general election, according to interviews with nearly two dozen Maine voters.
Several Democratic voters were hesitant to weigh in on the Senate race, saying they felt Platner's candidacy was all but certain at this point and sharing their opinion on him was likely to be met with backlash. Others who were planning to vote Democratic in November are now toying with backing Collins or sitting out the Senate race entirely -- a challenge for the likely nominee and his party.
Peter and Kelly Dufour were manning the grill at a Get-Out-the-Vote event for gubernatorial candidate Hannah Pingree in Portland on Saturday and excited about the former Democratic state House speaker's candidacy for governor. Asked about the Senate race, Kelly put her head in her hands.
Wow, they're too afraid to speak out against Gerald Platner? And they claim those of us who mostly defend Trump against the mostly-absurd communist propaganda allegations against Trump are "cultists."
So we're cultists for Trump? The most successful Republican president since Reagan (and some would say before that)?
But meanwhile you're cultists for an unemployed and frankly unemployable Fake Oyster Farmer born on third base but who has oozed his way down to the non-working class, beating women and ranting on the internet 24/7?
I think I'd rather be a cultist for the guy with actual accomplishments.

Josh Barro on Platner:
"Graham Platner doesn't work for a living. As The New York Times reports, the bulk of his income comes from a military disability pension of approximately $60,000 a year. The pension doesn't mean he's too disabled to work -- he is, after all, currently seeking the job of U.S. Senator -- but his recent non-campaign endeavors seem more like hobbies than a career. He runs an oyster farm that principally sells oysters to his mother's restaurant. He earned a small stipend as his town's harbor master: $3,000 last year. He lives in a $205,000 house that he bought with a $200,000 loan from his father."
What a resume.

@SteveRob
Graham Platner is the downwardly mobile offspring of Maine's upper class.
The people he knows working "3-4 jobs" --if any -- are like him: fake job as an oyster farmer, fake job as a harbor master, fake job at an NGO, etc.
His only real job is paramilitary training for Trantifa in Maine.
The SPLC Repeatedly Invokes the Fifth Amendment to Avoid Answering Whether They Used Donor Money to Pay "Extremists" to Put On "Hate" Marches, Burn Crosses, and Recruit New Members
—Disinformation Expert Ace
I say he invoked the Fifth Amendment, which he did. But the words he kept using were "We will address those allegations in court." In other words, I will not answer questions for which I will be held criminally responsible in another court.
That's his right, but:
1, why are people allowed to invoke the Fifth without explicitly invoking the Fifth? I bet you Democrats would demand to know what basis a witness has for refusing to answer.
and,
2, he's a fucking criminal, he knows he broke the law, and this is not some kind of principled invocation of the Fifth. He's guilty and his answers would either confirm his guilty or deny it, which would be obstruction of Congress because he'd be lying.
He refuses to answer directly when asked if the SPLC advised Biden which groups to weaponize the government against. He claims he consulted with "every administration."
Really? Trump too? Smells like a lie told to Congress under oath.
SPLC Interim President squirms when asked basic yes or no question by @RepMcClintock.

He repeatedly refused to apologize for inciting people to murder Charlie Kirk. As Rep. Issa alludes, the SPLC put the Family Research Council on their Hate Map sixteen years ago, and a leftist assassin shot up the place.

Invasion: Sudanese Colonist Uses Knife to Slash Open the Eyeballs of Northern Irish Man, Attempts to Saw His Head Off on Street in Broad Daylight

Belfast attack: Sudanese man arrested over stabbing 'had leave to remain'
Victim has 'significant' eye injuries from attack that bystanders stopped -- the city is now braced for protests
A Sudanese man arrested over a knife attack in Belfast on Monday is understood to have been granted leave to remain in Northern Ireland, the police have said.
The man, initially believed by police to be Somali but later confirmed as Sudanese, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after officers were called to Kinnaird Avenue at about 10.30pm on Monday.
Video of the attack appeared to show a man with a knife holding another man down on the ground, before bystanders intervened. One of them hit the attacker over the head with a hurling stick. The victim, who is in his forties, had "significant" eye injuries, Assistant Chief Constable Ryan Henderson said.
Yeah he cut out his eyes. This is cultural enrichment.
Asked about the suspect's immigration status, Henderson said: "My understanding is that the individual came into Northern Ireland from Dublin, moving up, and then was granted leave to remain."
Northern Ireland remains part of the UK so this is once again all due to Two-Tier Queer Keir and the British Islamo-Labour establishment.
Police are not seeking anyone else over the attack and at this stage is not deemed terror-related, Henderson said.
Of course not! But later on you will see that the "authorities" (who have no remaining authority) were immediately capable of judging planned protests for tonight as "far right."
Their capacity to detect ideology is highly selective.
...
Henderson said he shared "the public's revulsion at the attack', which he said had "sent shockwaves through communities".
Sure. The people in power attempting to convince the peons to accept this as normal and mainstream -- and racist to object to -- are "revolted" by the newest apocalyptic violence they've engineered.
The suspect is believed to have travelled from Sudan to Paris, then to Dublin, on unknown dates before taking a bus to Belfast in February 2023 where he immediately claimed asylum. He was given leave to remain in the UK in September 2023, according to Jon Boutcher, chief constable of Northern Ireland. He said his status when crossing the Irish border was still to be determined but that "lawyers will debate the legal status of this individual for weeks, months and even years to come".
The police who can't identify any ideological motive immediately sprang to label those who don't want to be invaded by bloodthirsty savages as "toxic."
Boutcher accused "faceless" people online who know nothing of Northern Ireland of causing "toxic" discourse that was inciting violence. The first minister, Michelle O'Neill, echoed his thoughts and called on people to reject "sectarianism" and violence.
In London, the Conservatives have demanded "total transparency" on the immigration status of the suspect. Chris Philp, the shadow home secretary, said: "Last night's brutal attempted beheading in Belfast is appalling. The government must ensure full details about the suspect's nationality and immigration status are released. Total transparency is required.
"If it turns out this man is an illegal immigrant it would provide further evidence that the government's lack of border control is endangering the public."
Hilary Benn, the Northern Ireland secretary, would not comment on the suspect's immigration status. He appealed for calm, adding it was "innocent people who suffer" when political leaders failed to reduce tensions.
And don't worry about the people having their eyes slashed open by a foreign invader. The only thing that bothers them is "backlash" against the violent foreign invaders. The forelash is accepted and even praised as "cultural enrichment."
He also paid tribute to the bystanders who intervened to pull the assailant away, saying they represented "the very best of humanity".
I'm sure he's very happy about this. He got civilians to do the police's job for them. The police are too busy harassing people over tweets.
...
Anti-immigration protesters have sought to capitalise on the incident by calling for a mass protest in Belfast on Tuesday evening. An online message of unknown origin has widely circulated on social media calling for men over 18 to arrive wearing dark clothing and to be "prepared to fight or be arrested".
A version of the post circulating on X called for "road closures and businesses to close in protest over the migrant invasion of Northern Ireland". Politicians in Northern Ireland warned that the incident may be hijacked by far-right activists.

Belfast is going crazy tonight over the recent attempted beheading by a migrant.
Every Irishman I know in Belfast is taking place in riots later today. Prots and Catholic together bizarrely.
The UK gov are scrambling to bring in riot police. Irish patriots are telling every white businesses to close their doors early tonight.
Expect to see some crazy videos in a few hours. The city is going to burn
Well, as we were told in the US, to compel us to accept BLM riots as moral and good: "Riots are the voice of the unheard."
The people of the UK are unheard, so they're entitled to riot, according to all the people, including the current government of the UK, who justified BLM riots.
Unions are one of the most corrosive influences in America, and teachers unions (along with government employee unions) are the worst of the bunch. They drive an aggressive progressive agenda into our schools, while sucking state and municipal coffers dry in their never-ending quest for more...more...more. The education of our children is an afterthought. Number one on their agenda is of course more money and less work. Number two is to relegate actual teaching to a few minutes each day, and concentrate on the leftist agenda of racial and gender politics, and above all the denigration of America.
And all of that is protected by their oceans of money extorted from their members.
Except in right-to-work states! And guess what? Mississippi is one of those states. Is it a coincidence that with increased accountability and more important, dissemination of objective data about the success of their schools, that Mississippi rapidly can improve their education outcomes?
Over the past decade, Mississippi has made such progress in fourth-grade reading that people have taken to calling it the “Mississippi miracle.” Mississippi ranked 9th in the country for fourth-grade reading in 2024, up from 49th in 2013, a forty-place climb in a decade, from near the bottom of the table into the top ten.
Mississippi’s fourth graders now read better than their peers in New York, Minnesota, and California -- every one of them a state that spends a great deal more per child than we do. And here is the part the spend-more crowd would rather you did not dwell on. We get those better results on far less money.
Mississippi spends around $12,300 per pupil, one of the five lowest figures in America. New York spends $31,918 -- more than two and a half times as much -- and its children read less well for it. New York, in other words, buys more than two dollars of schooling for every one of ours, and ends up further behind.
Sure, there are issues with correlating money and outcome, because there are confounding variables at work. For instance, it is likely that poorly-performing districts have money thrown at them, so their budgets increase without any improvement in outcomes. But there is a correlation, and more important, there is vast improvement driven by something other than money!
The education of our nation's youth is not an intractable problem, especially because the skills necessary to teach children are not particularly rare or difficult to train. And the reality is that education is a product, just like everything else in an economy, and if the transactions are transparent, with accessible data describing that product, then the consumer -- parents -- can make informed decisions. And the providers -- the schools -- can respond to those market pressures. Only when unions and politicians interfere with those decisions is the basic education of our youth at risk.

“I have to tell you, they’ve probably got the worst election system of any state in the country. It’s as if they set out to design it so that it would be easy to cheat and easy to steal elections,” he said, noting that the Golden State has banned voter ID while they “mail ballots to every single registered voter in the state.”
“They don’t do anything, I mean, hardly anything to clean up their voter rolls. So, like, in Los Angeles, you talk to anybody who lives there, and they will tell you if they live in condos and apartments, they’re probably receiving or have received ballots in the mail for people who don’t live there,” he said, highlighting the magnitude of this issue, surmising that some individuals receive multiple ballots.
“People have testified to that. I mean, it’s just one thing after another like that,” he said, noting that it does not end there, as the state will count ballots that come in for seven days after Election Day, with a 22-day “cure period” for ballots with issues such as a missing signature. Even then, the so-called “fix” is lacking.
The problem with the Gen Z new age socialist frame of thought is that they have no means of production of their own. Put plainly, there are no such things as socialist means of production or economic market tools; if so, what are they? To Gen Z, putting private property in someone else's hands and tweaking the economy to their benefit sounds workable, but the basic reality is very scary: they are under the impression that a socialist economy will solve their problems, and everyone else's for that matter, because in their minds all you have to do is control prices, increase minimums, put a cap on this, overtax the other, overregulate this and that, confiscate wealth, and so on. Yet here is the red pill: the previously listed points are capitalist means of production for a market economy; without a socialist means of production, none of the utopian ideas are workable.
Of course the abject incompetence in the wake of the Pacific Palisades wildfires on top of the crime and economic dislocations of open borders have also opened eyes, the attacks on ICE and police notwithstanding, but far too many have taken a bite out of that reality sandwich and evidently are not liking the taste. And so, Newsom , Bass and the Democrats have deployed the fraud machine tonsure California stays blue, and that there is not even the most minuscule chance of losing the state nationally in '28 and possibly for a generation or two down the line. It's not necessarily wishful thinking on my part but just interpreting Democrat motives and mindsets in the current environment. And considering Newsom is the or a frontrunner for the top of the Democrat ticket in '28, his record speaks for itself, not just going forward but right here and now as reflected in the election theft.
California today “has the nation’s highest cost-of-living adjusted poverty rate, the highest levels of functioning illiteracy, and the worst housing affordability in the continental US,” writes Joel Kotkin, who has been chronicling California’s highs and lows for more than 40 years. “California increasingly resembles a neo-feudal state, where a handful of large companies drive the economy while the vast majority of workers endure high energy and housing costs, high taxes, and diminishing opportunity.”
Golden State government has spawned fiascos large and small. Fraudulent Medicaid spending, which made headlines in Minnesota last winter, seems likely to be even more monumental in California, whose Medicaid programs are scheduled to get $138 billion from the federal government, up $18 billion from 2024. The state subsidizes tribal ceremonies and exorcisms, gym memberships and art lessons. . . California in its golden years made the movie “Casablanca.” Today, Casablanca is better at building public works than California. The state that within six months completed two major bridges across the San Francisco Bay can’t properly route phone calls in Tuolumne County.
Taking a workable system and making it fail requires a particular talent. Reading between the lines, one sees little among California’s well-paid public-sector union ranks of the pride I once noticed in a state employee years ago. Instead, there is an eagerness to extract still more from the state’s private-sector success — SEIU is pushing a supposedly onetime wealth tax on the very rich to boost current employees’ benefits — and a complacent indifference to whether the work actually serves its intended beneficiaries. . .
. . . Will the politicians astride this rot pay a price? Harris was the Democratic nominee for president in 2024, and Newsom leads in polls for the nomination in 2028. But a countertrend may be visible in the theoretically nonpartisan June 2 primary for mayor of LA. The (sparse) polling shows LA Mayor Karen Bass way below the 50% needed to win reelection next week, and former reality TV star Spencer Pratt overtaking the left-wing council member initially expected to be her chief challenger.
Pratt’s house was burned down in the January 2025 Pacific Palisades fire, which struck as Bass (despite promising in 2002 to take no foreign trips) was headed to the inauguration of the president of Ghana. Pratt’s cheeky ads lampoon Bass’s left-wing policies, which have produced empty reservoirs and streets full of angry, drug-addicted homeless people.
Empty reservoirs and acres of homeless tents — that’s what California’s once-proud public sector has been producing.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) took action “toward drafting” an affordability agenda for 2027 that puts Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in charge of health care, and transgender-identifying Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE) in charge of caregiving, according to multiple reports.
So, in other words smother America with a pillow, steal its wallet, then gang anal-rape its convulsing corpse. Funny how Jefries insists we're in economic freefall thanks to President Trump while a look at the headlines in the Economy Stupid section today and over the last few days debunks that bullshit totally. Yes prices are still high but the trend towards better times is unmistakeable. And paying a bit more at the pump is a very small price to pay in order to prevent an Islamic ICBM from coming down on us.

Much like the Strait of Hormuz, the Red Sea is a vital passage for global trade. Any attempt to block navigation through the Red Sea—more specifically, the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait at the mouth of the Red Sea, off the coast of Yemen—is likely to create significant delays and higher costs, especially for exports to and from Europe and Asia. This includes energy exports from the Gulf States. This represents the first major escalation from the Houthis since the group launched a similar campaign in late 2023 following Israel’s response to the October 7 attack.

No human endeavor has been more associated with mystery than the huge, ancient lion that has a human head and is seemingly resting on the rocky plateau a stroll from the great pyramids. Fortunately for Lehner, it wasn’t just a metaphor that the Sphinx is a riddle. Little was known for certain about who erected it or when, what it represented and precisely how it related to the pharaonic monuments nearby. So Lehner settled in, working for five years out of a makeshift office between the Sphinx’s colossal paws, subsisting on Nescafé and cheese sandwiches while he examined every square inch of the structure. He remembers “climbing all over the Sphinx like the Lilliputians on Gulliver, and mapping it stone by stone.” The result was a uniquely detailed picture of the statue’s worn, patched surface, which had been subjected to at least five major restoration efforts since 1,400 B.C. The research earned him a doctorate in Egyptology at Yale.
Recognized today as one of the world’s leading Egyptologists and Sphinx authorities, Lehner has conducted field research at Giza during most of the 37 years since his first visit. (Hawass, his friend and frequent collaborator, is the secretary general of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities and controls access to the Sphinx, the pyramids and other government-owned sites and artifacts.) Applying his archaeological sleuthing to the surrounding two-square-mile Giza plateau with its pyramids, temples, quarries and thousands of tombs, Lehner helped confirm what others had speculated—that some parts of the Giza complex, the Sphinx included, make up a vast sacred machine designed to harness the power of the sun to sustain the earthly and divine order. And while he long ago gave up on the fabled library of Atlantis, it’s curious, in light of his early wanderings, that he finally did discover a Lost City.
The Sphinx was not assembled piece by piece but was carved from a single mass of limestone exposed when workers dug a horseshoe-shaped quarry in the Giza plateau. Approximately 66 feet tall and 240 feet long, it is one of the largest and oldest monolithic statues in the world. None of the photos or sketches I’d seen prepared me for the scale. It was a humbling sensation to stand between the creature’s paws, each twice my height and longer than a city bus. I gained sudden empathy for what a mouse must feel like when cornered by a cat.
The real reason the Sphinx is next to the pyramids? The Sphinx needs a scratching post. That's why the cover stones are missing.

New Mom Gets a Visitor
So, yesterday I'm in my hospital room. This guy in work clothes walks in. Everyone thinks he's a doctor, but then he stares around and asks:
"Who in here was giving birth at 6 PM?"
I was the only one. So, I'm like "That was me, doctor. Is everything Okay?"
He replies "I'm not a doctor. I'm a WELDING ENGINEER. I came here specifically to meet the woman who RIPPED THE DAMN IRON HANDLE off the delivery chair during her contractions!"

Erika Kirk wowed the crowd at Turning Point USA's Women Leadership Summit with her cool response to a heckler who tried -- and failed -- to derail her speech.
A woman could be heard off camera, shouting from the audience as the CEO urged the crowd at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter to put their faith in God.
"Erika Kirk protects pedophiles! Erika Kirk protects pedophiles!" the woman screamed, video of the Friday event showed.
"It's important to remember that happiness comes and goes -- and I pray that you find it," she said to the heckler.
A protester outside a Turning Point USA event hosted by Erika Kirk dressed up as Charlie Kirk and re-enacted his death as crowds chanted, "He deserved to die."
The audience responded with cheers and applause, with some members of the crowd shouting: "We love you, Erika!"
The widow took several more jabs at the heckler -- who was removed from the crowd.
"That's an important moment because that just shows duty to faithfulness gives life meaning, and we must pray for our enemies and those that do not feel like their life has meaning. And that's a perfect example of that. A perfect example. You pray for your enemies. You pray for those that persecute you," Kirk said.
"That's not the enemy. We know who the real enemy is," she continued, without elaborating.

Notice it's no longer called the "young" women's leadership summit? Because they've completely lost the youth since Charlie's passing. This is RNC-lite.

Turning Point no longer has anything to do with Charlie Kirk and the whole world knows it-- including them. No spark. No energy. No debate. Frankly, stale.

Great news! Thanks to the wall-to-wall western media meltdown about my trip to Russia, their entire nation became aware of my presence here.
I have now been cordially invited to hear President Putin speak today at SPIEF.
This is why we say there is no such thing as bad press.
Also, isn't it kind of weird how Trump sent an entire delegation, (including the architect building his "ballroom") and yet Zionists never accused any of them of being Russian spies?
It's almost as if the people who refuse to peddle their talking points, get smeared.
The Trump administration on Monday announced it is seeking to revoke the citizenship of 17 U.S. citizens accused of immigration fraud, expanding its unprecedented denaturalization campaign.
CBS News exclusively reported about the plans before they were unveiled by the Justice Department.
Officials said the move represents the largest-ever effort by the U.S. government to use its denaturalization powers, which were rarely invoked before President Trump returned to the White House last year with promises to launch a historic deportation blitz. Between 1990 and 2017, the Justice Department filed an average of just 11 legal complaints per year seeking to denaturalize American citizens, historical figures indicate.
Federal law has long allowed the government to try to denaturalize foreign-born U.S. citizens who officials believe committed fraud to obtain their citizenship, such as by concealing information, like criminal conduct, on their immigration applications. But the process has been historically lengthy, complex and seldom exercised, requiring officials to persuade judges to strip naturalized citizens of their citizenship in civil or criminal proceedings in federal court.
The Trump administration has sought to vastly escalate denaturalization efforts as part of its larger crackdown on illegal and legal immigration. In 2025, the Justice Department broadened the categories of naturalized citizens who should be prioritized for denaturalization. Last month, officials announced a dozen denaturalization cases, at the time the largest such effort in years.
Some of the 17 citizens targeted in the latest denaturalization campaign were convicted of violent or serious crimes, including sex offenses against children. Others were convicted of fraud crimes or accused of committing immigration fraud.
In federal court complaints filed across the country in recent days, Justice Department officials argued that the individuals concealed their criminal activity when they applied for U.S. citizenship or were otherwise ineligible to be naturalized, including because they lacked a "good moral character," one of the requirements in the naturalization process.
Those targeted in the latest round of denaturalization cases include a Haitian immigrant who allegedly sexually abused his daughter; a man from the former Yugoslavia convicted of sexually abusing a child under the age of 15; an immigrant from Mexico convicted of receiving sexually explicit images of minors; a former Catholic priest born in Colombia accused of child sex abuse; and a Filipino-born man who pleaded guilty to a child sex crime.
The group also includes an Indian immigrant accused of filing fraudulent H-1B visa petitions; the daughter of a Colombian drug trafficker accused of money laundering; a man born in Jamaica convicted of wire fraud; and a Cuban-born woman accused of defrauding a tribal casino. Other naturalized citizens were accused of using false identities.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Justice Department would have "zero tolerance" for abuse of the naturalization process.
"Criminal aliens are lying about their past crimes, including drug dealers, sexual predators, and fraudsters," Blanche said.
This Department of Justice has filed DENATURALIZATION ACTIONS in various U.S. district courts against 17 individuals accused of serious offenses.

Heads Must Roll: Hampton Police Planned to Cover Their Asses by Insisting that Henry Nowak Was a Racist Aggressor, Even After the Evidence That Digwa Was a Lunatic Thug With a Knife-Murder Fetish
—Disinformation Expert Ace
And even more than that -- they planned this PR campaign against Nowak and in favor of themselves even as prosecutors were preparing murder charges against Digwa, which would of course prejudice the trial in his favor.
They were blocked from doing this, but the intent was there.

@C_3C_3
Henry Nowak's case gets worse...
Hampshire Police wanted to paint Henry as the racist aggressor.
Even after they had evidence Vickrum was guilty and lying about "racism".
They didn't want truth out.
If it wasn't for X they would've likely gotten away with it.
The police force at the centre of the Henry Nowak scandal has been criticised for trying to release a statement 'portraying him as the aggressor' three days after his murder.
Hampshire Police planned to publish a statement implying that the 18-year-old had assaulted killer Vickrum Digwa and his brother, according to reports.
Mr Nowak died in the early hours of December 4 after being stabbed multiple times by Digwa, who is Sikh and had lied to police about being the victim of a racially motivated assault.
A police statement released later that morning said: 'It was reported two men had been assaulted by an unknown man.' Officers told the Nowak family that the next update would also imply that the teenager was the initial aggressor, it is claimed.
But they later dropped that section of the statement, which only referred to an 'altercation' in its published form. At that point, police had substantial evidence that Digwa had lied to them.
Hampshire Police are also said to have risked collapsing Digwa's trial by trying to issue a statement over so-called 'disinformation' - while proceedings were already underway.
However, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) advised the force that the highly unusual move would risk jeopardising the 'integrity' of the case.
Ameer Kotecha, CEO of the Centre for Government Reform, said: 'These are appalling new details. As I have been saying, the no-questions-asked credulity with which the police treated Digwa's false racism claims just goes to show how deep the DEI rot has become.'
Nick Timothy MP, Shadow Justice Secretary, also criticised the police for threatening the 'integrity' of the trial with 'irresponsible statements'.
'Equality before the law should mean that trials are fair, that we all have the same legal rights and that we are subject to the same rules. Sadly, it has been displaced by an ideology that seeks to treat us differently based on race or identity.'
Instead of treating the first-year finance student as a victim, officers handcuffed him as he lay dying due to Digwa's false claim that he was a racist thug.
Digwa was handed a minimum jail term of 21 years on Monday, before riots erupted in Southampton a day later.
Hampshire Police said today: 'Following the opening of the trial and the media reporting that followed, a significant amount of mis- and disinformation was circulating online.
'This included requests for information to be shared that had not been fully examined as part of the murder trial.
'The intention of the statement was to remind the public that there were ongoing legal proceedings and that the law is clear that nothing could be published which could prejudice the trial. The decision not to publish was taken following advice from the CPS.'
Police diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies have come under scrutiny amid allegations Mr Nowak was failed by 'two-tier' policing.
Last year, West Yorkshire police had 19 staff dedicated to inclusion, costing £970,000 in combined salaries and benefits. The force also paid more than £360,000 to an external training provider.
Several policies are inspired by the National Police Chiefs' Council and Royal College of Policing's Police Race Action Plan, which was published in 2022 following the murder of George Floyd.
They include an 'About Time' timeline documenting events relevant to relations between the police and black people. One was issued to every force in England and Wales at a total cost of £97,000.
Meanwhile, the College of Policing paid £7,700 for a speaking 'masterclass' from Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, a controversial lawyer who criticised police for kicking the Golders Green suspect while arresting him following the stabbing of two Jewish men.
If you think things couldn't get any worse over the horrific murder of Henry Nowak.

Politico Cancels "Climate Change" Grift Subscription Service-- A Year After DOGE Turns Off the Government Subsidy
—Disinformation Expert Ace
You probably remember (at least if prompted) that during the days of DOGE upsetting all the socialist applecarts, it was revealed that Politico had a grifter newsletter with an exorbitantly high subscription price -- and that the main consumer was the US government, buying pricey subscriptions for leftwing bureaucrats who either wanted to read climate propaganda or just wanted to direct taxpayer money to support climate propaganda.
DOGE cancelled those subscriptions. The media howled, claiming that nearly $500,000 per year of taxpayer money was a very reasonable price to read Al Gore's Daily Diary.
Politico is discontinuing an energy and environmental news product a little over a year after the government canceled a nearly half a million dollar annual subscription to it.
Politico on Monday announced plans to shutter E&E News and introduce two new energy-focused newsletters in September, Semafor first reported. The move comes after Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin announced in February 2025 that the agency "will not be renewing our membership with Politico and Politico E&E, saving the American taxpayers $458,919 per year."
"Best $458,919 we ever saved on behalf of taxpayers," a spokesperson for the EPA told the Daily Caller News Foundation. "The government shouldn't subsidize poor journalism, and it's a stinging indictment of the previous administration that they wasted so many hard-earned American tax dollars keeping this outlet afloat."
"Beginning in September, we are modernizing how we deliver our energy and environmental policy journalism and launching a more focused, high-impact portfolio of daily news and intelligence products," Politico CEO Goli Sheikholeslami and Politico Global Editor-in-Chief Jonathan Greenberger said in a joint statement on Monday. "By bringing together our reporting from Washington, U.S. state capitals, Europe, and across industry, these newsletters will help subscribers see how policy decisions, political fights, and market forces intersect to reshape energy and climate."
...
"As part of this shift, E&E News will no longer operate as a separate brand. Its journalism and expertise will be fully integrated into POLITICO's energy and environment portfolio of stories, briefs, analysis and newsletters," according to Politico's statement. "The current E&E News publication structure will evolve into a connected set of energy and environment editorial products that share our deep reporting and strong analysis while showcasing our greater global editorial coordination."
When reached for comment, a Politico spokesperson referred the DCNF to the company's announcement from Monday.

Lulu Garcia-Navarro: "But it really didn't occur to you that you could be fired after so many of your colleagues had been let go after you'd had this, you know, very contentious interaction with your new boss?"
Scott Pelley: "You know, some reporter, I turned out to be. I just didn't connect the dots. I mean, was this meeting contentious? Yes, but 60 Minutes is known for two things, a ticking stopwatch and hard questions. And we ask ourselves those hard questions in the shop because they sharpen us and make us better..."
Garcia-Navarro: "So, you walk in, and what was the energy of the room?"
Pelley: "Hostile, dismissive before I could take my seat. Tom Cibrowski said, this is a firing offense. I was confused. I wasn't sure who he was talking about in the room, but it became plain very quickly that they were talking about me, and they were unhappy about the meeting that had occurred, a meeting that had ended in thunderous applause for me, if I may say so, because somebody had stood up for the broadcast."
He cried again later in the interview, but insisting he was crying for his fellow Fake Journalists, not shimself:
Scott Pelley cries again when declaring CBS’s Bari Weiss and Tom Cibrowski showed “breathtaking, completely lack of empathy,” “callousness,” and “inhumanity” by letting go Tanya Simon because her “family is legendary at CBS News.”
Pelley is a classic talking-head--someone who started in television and whose whole career has been forged within it. This is the world that the movie Broadcast News depicts. Someone handsome and deep-voiced appears on camera. Others do most or all of the writing and the research.
(Interestingly, the producer of the 2009 Chevron piece, Draggan Mihailovich, was among the top 60 Minutes producers fired late last month by CBS News management, enraging Pelley.)
In Britain, news anchors have traditionally been called "newsreaders." That's because this is what they are. Their job is to make sure that their hair is coiffed when they read from the teleprompter. Pelley was a male bimbo: a himbo.
Over the years, he made many absurd and bombastic statements. For example, in 2006 he presented a completely uncritical two-part report on climate change. When critics asked him why he didn't speak to anyone who questioned the assertions of those who said that climate change was an existential threat to humanity, he responded by saying that this idea was akin to Holocaust denial.
...
"The job of on camera talent is that of a performer. Take Christiane Amanpour. She has often appeared on TV wearing flak jackets when she is far from a combat zone. This is her way of selling the message that she is a field correspondent accustomed to visiting dangerous terrain. Similarly, Pelley is said to have liked to end news broadcasts by taking off his glasses and gazing gravely as the camera dramatically panned in to him. That was his way of ending on a weighty yet "intimate" note."

MORNING RANT: The Renormalization of Slavery – Great Britain is Backing Off from Forced Labor Ban in Pursuit of Net Zero Objectives
—Buck Throckmorton
One of the great triumphs of western civilization, especially since the Age of Enlightenment, has been the rejection of slavery in western societies. Human chattel and slave labor were the norm throughout most of human existence. The rejection of slavery these past couple centuries has been an anomaly. Or maybe I should say “had been an anomaly.” Slavery is now being justified by the climate cultists as necessary to save the planet.
Disturbingly, there is a broad coalition of westerners who fancy themselves as being “enlightened,” but they are actually leading the effort to re-establish slavery. As I documented in an American Spectator piece titled “The War on Labor Expense is Renormalizing Slavery, Just in a 21st Century Form,” free market libertarians advocate for the use of offshore forced labor so as to lower labor costs. With a straight face they make the argument that a prohibition on the use of foreign slaves is a tax on American consumers. Where slavery can’t be offshored, human trafficking cartels are importing slave labor into the United States and other western countries. Their human chattel is put to work by legitimate business entities, but through an opaque hiring process involving layers of “sub-contractors.”
Among the greatest achievements of the British empire and the Royal Navy was the eradication of slavery in the western world / in the 19th century. But with the Church of Climate replacing Christianity as Britain’s state religion, slavery is being re-normalized as a necessary sacrifice to please their angry climate God.
The U.K. government has walked back a promise to banish forced labor from the supply chains of its state-run clean energy company, as ministers rush to hit climate goals.
The UK has backtracked on its pledge to ban slave labour from its renewable supply chain to meet Ed Miliband's Net Zero goals.
Labour enshrined in law a promise that its state-run company GB Energy would not fund companies using forced labour. But following a probe that revealed that it had funded solar panels for schools without guarantees that they were ethically manufactured, it rowed back.
In a statement, the energy department introduced a new caveat to say that it would only ensure panels were free from forced labour 'as far as possible'.
It came as the Government announced that it would push to rid the energy system of fossil fuels and focus on renewables instead.
The Sustainable Organic Church of the Climate Apocalypse is a demonic religion that first advocated for a reduction in human standards of living, and is now embracing the re-normalization of slavery. Its high priests are actually making the argument that the use of slave labor is a moral good when used in pursuit of the church’s anti-carbon mission.
We on the right often joke that “You are the carbon they want to eliminate,” but with the climate cultists now openly endorsing slavery, they are just one small step away from openly advocating for radical “de-population” efforts in pursuit of their Net Zero utopia.
Too many Republicans in the U.S. and “conservatives” abroad have played nice with those pushing the climate agenda, accepting the false premise that “climate actions” are motivated by good intentions. That’s not acceptable. We must realize that the left and its climate agenda are a de-humanizing death cult that is heading full-steam toward a societal overhaul such as what was imposed by Mao and Pol Pot.
Net Zero must be repudiated and politically de-fanged. We cannot let this get any further out of control.
Nevada Primary is Tomorrow – Vote Jeffrey Carter for State Treasurer
Just a reminder, tomorrow is election day in Nevada, and I’d like to encourage all readers in the Silver State to get and out vote in the Republican primary, and vote Jeffrey Carter for Treasurer. He is one of us.
Mr. Carter is a long-time Ace of Spades reader, and unlike some of his peers in the world of venture capital, he is an unapologetic supporter of Donad Trump. (Mr. Carter writes the widely linked political site “Points & Figures.”)
While I would endorse Jeffrey Carter, who is a friend of mine, irrespective of the quality of his opponent, Jeff is the clear choice in this race. His opponent, Drew Johnson, is a serial candidate who has name recognition from the races he has lost. The critical thing to know is that Drew Johnson is a fringe libertarian who admires Thomas Massie. When Mr. Johnson ran for Congress a few years ago (a race he lost) he promised to work with Massie to undermine President Trump.
In a post on X, Barak Ravid, a global affairs correspondent for Axios, shared that Trump told him he was “going to call Netanyahu” and tell Netanyahu “not to strike back.” Trump’s comments to Ravid come after Iran retaliated with a missile strike on Israel after Israel struck Beirut in response to an attack from Hezbollah, according to Axios. Axios reported that Israel Defense Forces (IDF) “said sirens sounded in northern Israel as four missiles were launched from Iran”:
. . . One United States official, along with “two other sources” told the outlet that Israel had “notified the Trump administration before the strike” on Beirut. Another U.S. official told the outlet that the U.S. “supports Israel’s right to self-defense and stands with the legitimate Government of Lebanon as it works to deliver a better future for its citizens.”
Yes,I get it that unnamed sources as well as propaganda organs like Axios are to be taken with a grain of salt. But there is no doubt that President Trump no doubt would like the conflict to be over with as soon as possible, both to spare the lives of American service personnel and any innocent parties on the ground and to staunch the political fallout here at home as we get closer and closer to the crucial midterm elections.
“This is regime change,” Trump added. “One regime is gone, another regime is gone, we’re dealing with the third. Pieces of it, because some of them are gone, too.”
Regrettably, the president’s math is premised on a misguided assumption. Regime change requires the eradication of the ruling ideology, not merely the removal of some of the rulers who enforce it.
The two obvious examples of successful regime change that spring to mind are from World War II. Both prove the point in different ways.
When the U.S. and its allies occupied Nazi Germany following its unconditional surrender, de-Nazification was a comprehensive, whole-of-society effort to eradicate both the ruling ideology and the rulers themselves. This was necessary to eradicate over a decade of Nazi indoctrination and genocidal totalitarian rule over the German people, as well as the vile regime’s similar domination of occupied nations, which occurred with the support of elements within those local populations. Consequently, a root-and-branch elimination of the Nazi ideology followed. While Hitler and other top Nazis cheated the hangman, the Nuremberg war crimes trials resulted in the execution and/or imprisonment of remaining key regime leaders. Thus, in the instance of regime change in Nazi Germany, both the National Socialist ideology and its regime’s leadership were eradicated.
The way the game is being played this time is even sleazier with an attempt to knock out Spencer Pratt, who finished second on Election Night, in the first round with a whole lot of ‘late arriving ballots’ for the third place candidate, Nithya Raman.
It’s not remotely credible for a third place candidate who finished on Election Night in the twenties to be picking up 40% of late arriving ballots.
The previous defense that Democrats pick up more late arriving ballots doesn’t work either because it turns out that the Democrat who gets the most late arriving ballots is… the one who needs them more.
Magical isn’t it.
All with a turnout that somehow topped the much more popular and momentous 2022 mayoral election.

Democrat Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed the ban on so-called “assault weapons,” SB 749, into law on May 14, drawing immediate suits from pro-Second Amendment organizations, including the National Rifle Association (NRA), Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC). Clarke County Commonwealth’s Attorney Matthew Bass, who announced his refusal to enforce the ban on May 29 alongside Clarke County Sheriff Travis M. Sumption, told the DCNF he discussed the implications of the legislation with the sheriff before their joint statement.

If passed, election integrity in the state would be significantly strengthened, mitigating voter fraud, identity theft, foreign interference, and other corrupt practices. The measure could also reverse declining public trust in elections. Whether the proposal is strengthened to prevent mail-in fraud remains to be seen. However, the data is clear that there is overwhelming bipartisan support for voter ID among the public, including roughly 70 percent of Democrats nationwide. Vast Majority of Voters Want Voter ID in This State.

Rubio recently said he would be the first to support Vance if he ran for president in 2028, and it is unlikely Don Jr. will run. Therefore, if one were to add Rubio’s and Don Jr.’s numbers to Vance’s percentage — since those two are likely to support Vance from the get-go — it would show Vance starting with a dominant majority of Republicans at 66 percent with the total of those three combined.

BIDEN CRIME FAMILY REVELATIONS
Miranda Devine: Maybe it was a comedy routine the former first couple had practiced, but it fell flat. There wasn’t much laughter from the audience. Who humiliates her 83-year-old husband in public to try and boost lackluster book sales? “Dr.” Jill Biden — that’s who: a 76-year-old egotist who, in her delusional attempts to rewrite history, now claims that she thought Joe was having a “stroke” when he malfunctioned and started babbling more unintelligibly than usual during his first and final debate against Donald Trump almost exactly two years ago.
. . . Yep, that’s exactly what we assumed, since we had been watching Joe glitch for more than four years, despite the best efforts of his “American Politburo” of minders, led by the ambitious Jill, to conceal her husband’s frailties. Democrats can’t escape the Bidens and their drama — even if they’re done covering for them
The burst comes as the Biden family name faces another round of damage. “CALL ME DOCTOR” Jill Biden has a new memoir out, and Joe's age, decline, and 2024 debacle remain part of the national conversation. Hunter stepped into the noise with the same scandals trailing behind him, but with a new tone; he's trying to turn the evidence locker into a comedy set and the family defense into a personal comeback tour.

Lammy, who also serves as the left-wing Labour Party government’s Justice Secretary, said that while the “starting point” should be equality before the law, it is not always appropriate to be treated “the same”, noting the disproportionate arrest rates of certain ethnic minority groups, such as Roma travellers [Gypsies] and black Britons.

Researchers also noted a broader deterioration in adult mortality beginning around 2010, driven largely by heart disease, and warned that the United States could face prolonged stagnation or even declines in life expectancy if the trend is not reversed. This trend has continued with subsequent generations, exacerbated by factors such as obesity and the opioid epidemic. This could have significant implications for public health policy and economic planning. Americans Born After 1970 Are Dying Younger.
President Donald Trump issued an executive order in April aiming to “accelerate innovative research models and appropriate drug approvals to increase access to psychedelic drugs that could save lives and reverse the crisis of serious mental illness in America.” While some experts have touted the antidepressant effects of psychedelic-assisted mental healthcare treatments, others have raised concerns about potential ethical issues and gaps in psychedelic research.

The bottom of the box office barrel for Star Wars is unquestionably Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018), which petered out with a $214
million domestic gross and a $179 million overseas gross, for a global total of $393 million. . . That’s catastrophic math for any blockbuster. For a Star Wars movie, it revealed a major disturbance in the force, and that disturbance went by the name of Kathleen “The Force Is Female” Kennedy. Remember, Solo is a movie that told fans that the legendary Lando Calrissian would be revealed as a robot-humping “pansexual.” I don’t know what a pansexual is. I don’t want to know what a pansexual is. But I do know it’s gross. Nolte: Disney’s ‘Mandalorian and Grogu’ Flops Hard in Weekend Three

Well, it is a USB speaker, yes. It also supports Bluetooth connectivity for your mobile devices. At the same time.
And it makes it easy to upgrade the firmware should you need to do so.
Over Bluetooth. Without authentication. While it is plugged into your PC.
Meaning that anyone within Bluetooth range can reprogram it with arbitrary functionality. Make it open Powershell and wipe your hard drive? Sure. The only problem there is the lack of imagination.
Oh, and Bluetooth is always on, even when the device is powered down to "sleep" mode, so just turning it off won't save you.
Creative - the company that sells Sound Blaster devices - states that it does not regard this as a vulnerability, which leaves me to wonder what kind of creeping cosmic horrors they would regard as vulnerabilities.

Oof. Reviewers do not like Scary Movie 6. The criticism I keep hearing is that the movie mistakes a reference for an actual joke. The movie (they say) keeps Key Jangling a reference to another movie (or some other pop culture ephemera) and you expect there to be a joke but nope, the Key Jangle was the joke. Other reviewers say that the promise that "no lines will be uncrossed" is a fake-out, and that the movie is bland and inoffensively corporate.
Whoops! I posted about Dan Goldman losing the NY congressional primary. He might do that, but it won't be tonight -- the primary isn't held until June 23.
One race to keep an eye on: the Levi's heir nepo baby and egregious "Designated Liar" Dan Goldman -- one of the Democrats from a safe district Democrats send out to spread their most indefensible lies -- may actually lose his lower Manhattan/Brooklyn set due to, get this, antisemitism in the Democrat primary electorate. Antisemitism? In the anti-Nazi Democrat Party? Sounds crazy, I know, but apparently the anti-Nazi Party wants to eliminate Jews.

Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., on Platner: "We know that Graham has lived not your typical political experience. He's been very clear and open with his wife, and they worked through whatever they worked through. At the end of the day, this man has had 60 more town halls than Susan Collins has. He's winning the polls, he's willing to accept that he has grown as a person, and I think we should accept that."
Gallego says the drip-drip of revelations won't harm Platner's campaign.
"I think you guys are all in a bubble here right now. The drip, drip that's actually happening is Americans are really, really hurt the fact that gas is still high, food is still high, they can't buy a home, you can't afford rent. They're not going to care about text messages and everything else like that that happened years ago, especially when it was worked out between spouses."
I like that he says that it's okay that Graham Platner sexted 12 different women within months of marrying the woman to sponge off her because he wasn't then "living a political life" -- the clear meaning being, "We all cheat, we just don't cheat when we're running for office, and he didn't know he was running for office when he was sending dicpics to half the women he ran into."
Except he was running: His own wife turned the sexts over to his campaign.
And obviously Reuben Gallego didn't let his "political life" get in the way of his extramarital dating life:

From the CA Post:
Spencer Pratt is now Karen Bass' biggest headache.
A bombshell California Post poll conducted with McLaughlin & Associates shows the reality TV star-turned-mayoral candidate has surged to a statistical tie with the incumbent mayor.
And voters blame homelessness, affordability and the direction of Los Angeles as the reason for turning on Bass.
Pratt now leads the field with 30.1% support, compared with 29.5% for Bass, setting up a razor-thin race heading into next week's primary.
Socialist councilwoman Nithya Raman sits in third place at 23.4%.

Just like "Spartacus" Corey Booker, now that James Talarico is running for a higher office, he unveils his previously-unknown "girlfriend" and hooboy, it just so happens she used to work for him, and, get this, likes to "dance the night away" at gay bars Gee I wonder where they might have met Oh and she's a vegan
When Corey Booker needed a "girlfriend," he conjured up known LGBTQ activist Rosario Dawson. How convenient that when these guys need a girlfriend to show off to the normies that just happen to find an activist with a strong history of and interest in Supporting Gay Men But seriously, this James Talarico romance with a Neighbor with a Uterus is a love story for the ages. The passion of their lovemaking is hotter than a blue star with a core of Primordial Sex Atoms created in the Big Bang
