This Is What Leads People to Trash Philly

I suspect that Philadelphia Inquirer staff writer Stephanie Farr doesn’t normally write the crime reports, but simply drew the weekend assignment. But the City of Brotherly Love had a bloody, bloody weekend, and Miss Farr wound up being the reporter who had to write about it. Then, when I saw her Inky bio at the …

The One-World-Government Folks Want to Subject the United States to the United Nations, When They Haven’t Gotten Their Way Under Our Laws

The one-world-government folks want to subject the United States to the United Nations, regardless of American law. From The Washington Post: Almost 200 rights groups call on U.N. to intervene over U.S. abortion access The U.S. cannot be a global champion of human rights when its own abortion rights are not protected, one activist group …

Don’t Waste Time and Money Trying For a Death Sentence Which Will Never Be Carried Out

Sergeant Mark Fusetti is a retired Philadelphia Police officer, who last served on the Warrant Squad, and one of my electronic friends. His major concern right now — other than helping his friend Sam Oropeza get on the ballot for a Philadelphia City Council At Large seat — is crime in the City of Brotherly …

Secular Liberalism Has Infected Religion, and Liberal Religion Has Infected Secular Politics

And here I thought that Catholic bishops and priests were supposed to be guided by the Bible in which they have professed belief! On same-gender blessings specifically, (Bishop Helmut) Dieser (of Aachen, Germany) challenged the Vatican’s ban on them, saying priests and other pastoral ministers should be guided by their consciences when deciding on whether …

This Is What Happens When People Elect a Soft-on-Crime Prosecutor

With some major cities saddled by George Soros-sponsored “progressive” chief prosecutors, law enforcement officials whose goals are not to protect the public, but to keep criminals out of jail, sensible people have been trying to take action. Endorsed by such liberal luminaries as as Senatore Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Cooks County State Attorney Kim Foxx, and …

Once Mayoral Candidates Wanted to Bypass Larry Krasner, The Philadelphia Inquirer Leapt to His Defense

Yup, I expected this. Despite the tremendous rise in crime, the Editorial Board of The Philadelphia Inquirer endorsed District Attorney Larry Krasner for re-election on Monday, May 9, 2021, a day in which the City of Brotherly Love was reporting 183 homicides thus far that year, 46 more than the same day the previous year, …

Some of the Environmentalists Seem to Want Us to Return to Nineteenth Century Living

The two articles were not that far apart on the main page of The Wall Street Journal’s website. The first was rather innocuous: Ford Invests $3.5 Billion in Michigan Battery Plant With Chinese Partner’s Technology The facility will help the auto maker reach a goal of producing 2 million electric vehicles annually later this decade …

To the Left, Liberal Politics Are Far More Important Than Freedom of Religion

As we noted on Friday, an FBI “Analyst” submitted a proposal to monitor traditional Catholics who prefer the Tridentine, or Traditional Latin, Mass, “Radical-Traditionalist Catholics,” or RTEs, he called them, because “Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists,” or RMVEs might be interested in using Latin Mass Catholics to spread their goals. Someone leaked a hand-redacted, …

The Leftists Tell Us That They Support Racial Integration, But They Really Do Not

We have previously noted how the Editorial Board of The Philadelphia Inquirer told us that the violence problem in the City of Brotherly Love is due to the internal segregation of what is, overall, a very ‘diverse’ city. However, the Inky has also been very wary of gentrification. What is gentrification? Gentrification is the process …

Is the “Chinese Spy Balloon” Mission Just to Make President Biden and Our Military Look Bad? If So, Mission Accomplished!

I will admit it: I have been reluctant to comment on the purported Chinese spy balloon story, because it seemed like so much of a set-up. Really? A nation with the capacity to launch its own spy satellites, needing to send an easily-shot-down spy balloon over Montana? But, with even the Grey Lady treating it …

Reading the ‘Wrong’ Book Can Get You in Trouble at Stanford

Have you ever read Mein Kampf? I have, and I even own a copy. I also own copies of The Communist Manifesto, several of Vladlimr Il’ich Lenin’s pre-revolutionary works, the Q’ran, the Book of Mormon, and the old Lancer Books twelve paperback volume set of Conan stories. The fact that I own and have read …

The Washington Post Says the Quiet Part Out Loud

Conservatives have been saying, for a long time now, that the credentialed media were quite biased in their reporting, mostly, though not quite entirely, biased in a leftward direction. Yes, my site has focused much of its attention to The Philadelphia Inquirer, but it’s hardly alone; we reported previously how The New York Times found …

The Only Real Winner of the Russo-Ukrainian War Will Be China

My Twitter feed frequently shows me stories about how the Russo-Ukrainian War has devastated the Russian economy and how Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin has led the country down the toilet. But, alas!, it seems that maybe, just maybe, things haven’t gone quite as we’ve been told. From The New York Times: Russia Sidesteps Western Punishments, With …

Hold Them Accountable!

Meet Edwin Vargas. If you were expecting to see Mr Vargas’ mugshot in The Philadelphia Inquirer, your expectations would have been dashed, but at least the Inky covered his arrest: Man arrested for quadruple shooting that killed 3 in Mayfair Edwin Vargas also is charged with murder that occurred on Jan. 3. Vargas has been …

All the News That’s Fit to Print?

There has been so much written about the criminal cases against 33-year-old government worker William Dale Zulock Jr. and 35-year-old banker Zachary “Zack” Jacoby Zulock, accused of a whole series of child rape and sexual abuse crimes against the two boys they adopted, with some of the descriptions beggaring the imagination, that I’ve had to …

Al Gore’s Unhinged Rant at Davos

We previously noted how Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry told attendees at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, that they were a “select group of human beings” who got to talk about saving Mother Gaia from global warming climate change emergency, something about which Robert Stacy McCain wrote in more detail. Not unexpectedly, …
