Colorado perp's backstory coming to light: father was a meth-addicted porn actor; mother was a mentally unstable common criminal; threatened to murder his grandparents and conduct a mass shooting; was on law enforcement's radar.

The media blamed conservative journalists.
We have a country with millions of children who grow up in a world of shattered families, absentee fathers, drug addiction, violent crime, and heavy medication to numb it all out. We need to stop ignoring the social catastrophe that is the source of so much chaos.
It's possible the perp had ideological motives. It's possible he's "nonbinary" as his lawyers claim. But the journos didn't wait for the facts: they tried to immediately shift the blame to their political enemies. And the public is catching on to their game.

The NYT published a deranged op-ed claiming that my reporting on drag queen story hour was somehow responsible for the recent shooting in Colorado.

Now we find out the shooter identifies as "nonbinary" and uses "they/them" pronouns.

The NYT used the tragedy to falsely smear me.
Here is my 5,000-word feature on the ideological origins of Drag Queen Story Hour. It's sober, serious reporting that quotes drag activists and queer theorists in their own words. The NYT's implication that this is "stochastic terrorism" is disgraceful.

Here's how the NYT framed it. False, reckless, unhinged speculation to advance a smear campaign.

The leader of the Washington State ethnic studies curriculum invokes the "Jewish question" and rails against "white Jews" who "insist that their experiences with oppression and genocide are somehow unique." She suggests that Jews might "benefit" from it.

The discipline of ethnic studies, like critical race theory, relies on insidious racial stereotyping and scapegoating. In Washington State, the government has announced its intention to make the ethnic studies curriculum, designed in part by this woman, a graduation requirement.
Ethnic Studies, like critical race theory, relies on insidious racial stereotypes and scapegoating. Their targets generally include European-Americans, Jewish-Americans, and Asian-Americans—all of whom are deemed oppressors.

Parents in Dearborn, Michigan, are holding a mass rally to get radical gender theory out of their schools.

"We as parents ... are responsible for our children. The progressive dogma ... will not indoctrinate our children."
Parents were outraged when they discovered that the local school district had promoted a book that teaches children the "ins and outs of gay sex" and "how sex apps work." Image
This is a golden opportunity for conservatives to expand their coalition. Muslim-Americans, Asian-Americans, and Latinos all oppose schools forcing radical gender theory onto their children. It's time to reach out and work together to get this ideology out of our schools.

Thank you, @iamjohnoliver, for highlighting my work. I always publicly announce my plan in advance, so these "gotcha" segments at the end are a nice confirmation that it worked. We are winning on CRT and radical gender theory—and there's nothing you can do to stop us.
The Left's most powerful technique is to shame people for any behavior that deviates from their narrative. But that's not going to work anymore. Call us whatever you want, but there is nothing shameful about protecting our children from racialist abuse and sexual manipulation.
The most liberating thing you can do as a conservative is to stop caring about the approval of people who hate you. I've learned to see these media fights as accelerants to my campaigns, rather than personal judgements on me. They do not matter in my day-to-day life at all.

Medical students at the University of Minnesota must now take an oath to "honor all Indigenous ways of healing that have been historically marginalized by Western medicine" and fight "white supremacy, colonialism, [and] the gender binary."
Here's the program from University of Minnesota's white coat ceremony for the incoming class. You'll notice that the closing is from the "Vice Dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion" Ana Núñez who—wait for it—specializes in "gender medicine."
It's past time for reasonable doctors to stand up and denounce this poison. Western medical science and shamanic healing are not equally valid cancer treatments. "Gender medicine" that results in mastectomies for girls and penectomies for boys is a barbaric violation of ethics.

NBC News reporter accidentally admits that Twitter has been suppressing, manipulating, and distorting the public debate in order to benefit the political Left.
Ben Collins, Brandy Zadrozny, Taylor Lorenz, and Media Matters have spent years building an apparatus to declare entire realms of discourse "disinformation" and to punish dissenters with smear reporting and deplatforming campaigns—while their own outlets spread monumental lies.
These people are bullies for the establishment: they work for the most powerful media corporations in the world and spend their time trying to suppress independent journalists, destroy reputations, and freeze citizens out of the modern communications and financial system.
