At some point it has to be asked: how stupid can people be?

The Lexington Police went from saying Sunday morning that they “have no updates” on the mass shooting at Charles Young Park to the (alleged) shooter being in jail Sunday evening. I suppose that’s the kind of thing the police do to not alert the suspect that they are hot on his heels.

18-year-old arrested, charged with murder and assault after shooting at Lexington park

By Valarie Honeycutt Spears | Monday, August 17, 2026 | 4:34 AM EDT | Updated: 9:09 AM EDT

An 18-year-old man was arrested Sunday and charged with killing one and injuring four in a mass shooting, according to the Lexington Police Department.

No, of course the Lexington Herald-Leader did not publish the suspect’s mugshot, but WLKY did, and one of my electronic friends tweeted it out to the world.

Just a Gigolo: Once again a high-profile woman allegedly buys love with other people’s money

Last Wednesday, police in California arrested Heidi Beirich, formerly with the beleaguered Southern Poverty Law Center, on charges that she oversaw secret payments to informants inside of white supremacist groups—including payments to an informant who allegedly was her neo-Nazi boyfriend. Are you ready for the amount of SPLC donor dollars he received? (In Doctor Evil …

Coming Soon from Chuck Klein

My latest book, CIRCA 1967, Unyielding Mind-set Street Cop turns P.I. Collides with Anarchy, is a forty-year odyssey—a trek, a pilgrimage, a crusade—one man’s three lifetimes: from a twenty-something blue collar/junior executive to an excitement-driven law enforcement officer to the mature fiftyish private investigator involved in a world-changing ordeal.

Family demand answers!

My good friend Robert Stacy McCain has a short series entitled “Family Demands Answers”, which reached the fourth such article at the beginning of this month, and as you might guess the series refers to families loudly complaining about their poor future doctors and astrophysicists being killed while doing something boneheadedly stupid. It’s like a “Hold my beer” moment, but with the police involved.

A father is searching for answers after lawyers say a police pursuit of an ATV ended in his son’s death

Sterling Jones, 22, died after his ATV struck an Uber driver in May. Lawyers for Jones’ father say police should not have been pursuing him in the first place.

by Jesse Bunch | Monday, August 10, 2026 | 5:01 AM EDT

The father of a Philadelphia man who was killed in an ATV crash this spring said police officers pursued his son moments before he drove the wrong way down a one-way street, ran a red light, and collided with a sedan.

We should never release murderers until their victims come back to life!

Tuesday morning’s lead editorial in The Philadelphia Inquirer is a complaint that President Trump is fighting a war on the truth by claiming that the credentialed media often publish #FakeNews, while at the same time publishing, as an ostensibly ‘straight news’ story that is actually a sob story about a convicted murderer who wants to get out of prison.

Should Nikki Floris Be Tried? Let’s Skip the Word “Treason” and Talk About the Felonies

“I’m basically running a shadow government across the FBI at this point.” That is a real, declassified text message, sent by a real, named federal employee — Nikki Floris (also rendered “Flores” in some captions), then Deputy Assistant Director of the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division and, delightfully, the Bureau’s own designated election security lead for 2020. The colleague she sent it to did not respond with alarm. He responded with a smiley face and “you do what you have to do.” Hang in there.

A Gated Community

Polite society expects everyone to be good and punish those who are not good. Good being defined as living a lifestyle where rewards are earned – not entitlements just for being good. Most western nations compel citizens to earn their own way and charitably help those who struggle. However, liberalism has evolved into treating felons almost like visiting dignitaries, to wit: our own taxpayer-financed penal system. We allow those convicted of heinous crimes to luxuriate in an obligation-free, communist-style gated community with air-conditioning access to TV, college degrees and health privileges that even some of our good citizens don’t have.

At what point do the media give up on a criminal-loving and police-hating prosecutor?

We have frequently noted The Philadelphia Inquirer’s seemingly unqualified support for the city’s George Soros-sponsored — $1.7 million in 2017 and $1.2 million in 2021 — criminal-loving, police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, but even the Inky has been unable to avoid covering the news about Mr Krasner’s problems. The newspaper said of Mr Krasner, in …

Governments’ (Flock) Spy Systems: Yet Another AI-Data Center-Privacy Nightmare

Much has rightly been made of the monstrous amounts of resources – water, electricity, land – data centers use.

Data centers that are now being built, we are told, to feed the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Data centers are being called “data centers?” Because the far more truthful “surveillance centers” and “human replacement centers” would be an even tougher sell.
