“For the Democrat hard left [sic], the good news is that Zohran Mamdani, a self-described ‘Democratic socialist’ with a long history of what many consider antisemitism and anti-Israel activism, won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York. The bad news for the Democratic left [sic] is that he will likely win. It’s no surprise that President Donald Trump is not popular in New York, where a New York City judge found him liable in a ridiculous business fraud case and where a Manhattan jury convicted him of an equally ridiculous criminal charge of election interference. A recent poll of New York state Jewish, Protestant, Catholic, Hispanic, Black and white voters found Trump’s approval rating underwater with every racial, ethnic and religious group, except one.” (09/11/25)
“A new Girl Scout cookie that’s reminiscent of a classic ice cream flavor is joining the lineup. Girl Scouts of Northern California and Girl Scouts of the USA announced Wednesday that the latest flavor to join the cookie roster is Exploremores, a sandwich cookie inspired by rocky road ice cream. The new treat — which is made with chocolate, marshmallow and almond-flavor creme — will be available at Girl Scout sales booths and online between Jan. 12 and March 15, 2026. ‘We are thrilled for the new cookie and its theme that perfectly sums up the curious, courageous, and caring spirit of Girl Scouts all across the country,’ Girl Scouts of Northern California CEO Mary-Jane Strom said in a news release. The new flavor comes on the heels of a January announcement that the Girl Scouts would discontinue S’mores and Toast-Yay next year.” (09/10/25)
“There have been 47 episodes of mass violence on school campuses this year. The 47th took place at a Denver-area high school, 26 years after the Denver-area high school shooting in Columbine, where three people were shot on Wednesday, two of them students. The 46th school shooting of the year had just one victim. Charlie Kirk, the conservative campus activist and podcaster, was shot in the neck during a question-and-answer session at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. He died shortly thereafter. The question he was being asked, right at that moment, was about the number of mass shootings in America.” (09/10/25)
“A 16-year-old boy who had been radicalized by an ‘extremist network’ fired a revolver multiple times at a suburban Denver high school, wounding two students, authorities said Thursday. Some students ran and others locked down during Wednesday’s shooting at Evergreen High School in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. One of the victims was shot inside the school and another outside. The suspect, a fellow student at the school, later died, officials with the Jefferson County sheriff’s office said. The new details were released at a news conference Thursday.” (09/11/25)
“We are suffering through an epidemic of leftist [sic] violence. The ruthless assassination of conservative youth leader Charlie Kirk, 31, at a crowded campus event in Utah on Wednesday is the latest manifestation of the hateful rhetoric aimed at President Trump and his MAGA movement. It’s a sad irony that Kirk’s shockingly public murder happened the day before the trial begins of Ryan Routh, one of the alleged assassins who tried to rub out Trump during the 2024 campaign. Prescient as always, Kirk understood the consequences of the escalating violent rhetoric of the left [sic], as he and Trump kept winning the hearts and minds of a new generation, especially young men, with logic and common sense.” (09/11/25)
“A Maine principals’ group is fighting a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice that seeks the names of all students playing interscholastic sports in the state as the DOJ attempts to ban transgender athletes from participating. President Donald Trump’s administration sued Maine in April for not complying with an executive order barring transgender athletes from sports. The Justice Department followed up with a subpoena of the Maine Principals’ Association, a nonprofit that oversees school sports in Maine, seeking a host of information. The full scope of the subpoena isn’t public because a judge sealed it. However, in a Sept. 4 legal filing, the principals’ association said the subpoena included ‘requests for the production of all athletic rosters for the state,’ and would require providing ‘personally identifiable information of students, many of whom are unrelated to the underlying controversy.'” (09/11/25)
“America did not get to the bad place it is in today by accident. We are here as a result of the combination of a political system that serves money, and a half-century long explosion of economic inequality that has produced an oligarchy. Donald Trump is the product of these factors, but he is not the underlying problem. The underlying problem is that too much power has flown into the hands of too few people, and they have used that power to arrange the entire economic and political system in their favor. Democracy, such as it was, is an inevitable casualty of this process. Climbing out of the hole that we are in will require more than one or two favorable election cycles. It will require shifting that underlying balance of power away from the oligarchs and their allies, and back towards the rest of us.” (09/10/25)
“In what Utah’s governor called a political assassination, a sniper shot and killed influential conservative Charlie Kirk on Wednesday at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, as he engaged students in a question and answer-style debate. The killer remains at large, but Gov. Spencer Cox vowed that federal and state law enforcement officials would capture the shooter, even as President Donald Trump and other world leaders condemned the attack and the angry divides plaguing the country. … Kirk was in the middle of answering politically charged questions about mass shootings in America when he was murdered, said Deseret News reporter Emma Pitts, who together with Deseret News reporter Eva Terry was covering Kirk’s campus rally and each witnessed the shooting.” (09/10/25)
“If all goes as planned, hundreds of South Koreans in Georgia will voluntarily fly to their home country on Wednesday. They were detained last week by federal agents at a Hyundai construction site for allegedly living and working illegally [sic] in the United States. What makes the exodus so remarkable is that it represents a case of mass obedience to American sovereignty among those in the U.S. illegally [sic]. Instead of being forcibly deported in handcuffs, the Koreans will depart in contrition. The choice to honor the law may even improve their legal opportunities to return. This reflects a large shift in voluntary outmigration nine months into the Trump administration’s tough – and sometimes unconstitutional – crackdown on illegal [sic] migration.” (09/09/25)

“Recent hours have seen too much Israeli depravity to write about, including an assassination strike in Qatar to sabotage peace talks, a second drone attack on the Global Sumud Flotilla, and a Guardian article featuring an IDF sniper who discussed killing civilians like a trophy hunter talking about game animals. The IDF bombed a Doha residential building on Tuesday in an attempt to assassinate Hamas officials who had gathered to discuss US-Israeli ceasefire proposals, reportedly killing a Qatari security officer and four Hamas aides, as well as the son of the acting Hamas political bureau chief. President Trump publicly criticized the Israeli attack, but Middle East Eye reports that according to US and regional officials the president had actually ‘blessed’ the strike in advance. These would be the same Hamas officials who Trump had just been aggressively threatening to accept his ceasefire proposal or face severe consequences.” (09/10/25)
