The trial of the three men accused of slaying Ahmaud Arbery has Black Americans walking on pins and needles once again. Whatever the jury decides, I’m afraid, will fail to address a damming question that the tragic incident symbolizes: How can Black people ever be secure in America? Executed by three strangers while jogging in a white neighborhood, Arbery’s killing reflects the mindset of domination in the culture of white supremacy: the belief that any random white person has the right to accost and detain a Black person with impunity. Authorities are ready to accept their claims of righteous endangerment–even
The last Kmart in Michigan closed Sunday, putting an official end to a longtime Michigan staple. Located in Marshall, a suburb of Battle Creek with a population a little more than 7,000, at 15861 Michigan Ave., it has been the last Kmart in Michigan since 2020. It was the only national big-box retailer in the immediate area, likely what allowed it to stay in business until now. You can go in and buy a birthday present if you need to, without going out of town," said Brenda Hoyt, Marshall resident, in a previous Free Press article. "Clothes, toys, projects for
Longtime U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, D-Dallas, announced Saturday she is not running for reelection after serving nearly three decades in Congress. “I have gone back and forth … the whole time because of the pleading and the asking, but as of January … the year after next, I will step down,” Johnson said during an event in Dallas. "I will retire, and let me assure that I will also recommend to you whom I feel is the best to follow me." Johnson added she is looking for a "female that is qualified." First elected to Congress in 1992, Johnson
President Joe Biden celebrates his 79th birthday on Saturday, November 20 by marking a new milestone in presidential history but likely adding to speculation about his own political future. Biden was already the oldest person ever to serve as president but now he's 79-years-old, he's set another new record for the greatest age reached by any serving commander in chief. (Snip) Critics have previously cited Biden's age as a cause for concern, with some calling on him to take a cognitive test and others openly suggesting there are problems with the president's mental acuity. Biden reportedly did not undergo a cognitive

Mark Richards, Kyle Rittenhouse's criminal defense attorney, told Insider that he has received so many death threats that he was no longer using his own cellphone. Richards said that he "can't count" the number of death threats he's received recently. "It's too high," he added. The attorney has since taken to using his wife's cellphone, which he used to speak to Insider, but added that her number has also been targeted by people making death threats. Richards said: "I would love for things to change, for people to talk to one another without fighting, but, unfortunately, I don't see it

Police opened fire on anti-lockdown protesters in the Dutch city of Rotterdam Friday as several European cities braced for further demonstrations against new Covid restrictions over the weekend. “On a number of occasions the police felt it necessary to draw their weapons to defend themselves,” Rotterdam Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb told reporters after protesters tore through the city’s central shopping district, setting fires in their wake. Describing the scenes as "an orgy of violence," he added that “people were injured,” after officers "shot at protesters," although he could not provide information on the extent of their injuries. At least seven people

Citadel CEO Ken Griffin bought a rare copy of the US constitution on Thursday in a Sotheby's bidding war that broke records, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal. Griffin paid $43.2 million for the 234 year-old document, effectively outbidding a crowdfunding crypto collective called ConstitutionDAO that raised more than $40 million from 17,437 donors in less than a week. The US Constitution that was up for auction at on Thursday is an official first-edition printed copy of the document. It is one of just 13 remaining copies that survived a 500-print run in 1787. The document is
Prominent Democrats, progressives, and left-leaning groups erupted Friday following Kyle Rittenhouse's acquittal on all charges in his closely watched trial in Kenosha, Wis., calling it a miscarriage of justice. (Snip) New York City Mayor Bill deBlasio, D., fumed over the verdict. ''Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum are victims. They should be alive today. The only reason they’re not is because a violent, dangerous man chose to take a gun across state lines and start shooting people. To call this a miscarriage of justice is an understatement," he said. Democratic Rep. Adriano Espaillat, N.Y., called Rittenhouse a "murderer" whose "white tears"

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Dr. Inbal Cohen-Rasner is an award-winning composer, mother of two, and radiologist, who is used to making diagnoses, not receiving them. “How scary is it?” asked Acton News Jax Ben Becker. “I was devastated,” Cohen-Rasner said. Cohen-Rasner said in September she was diagnosed in both ears with sudden sensorineural hearing loss – about a week after receiving the Moderna booster shot following a short bout with the common cold. “Most of the doctors think it was viral or auto-immune,” Cohen-Rasner said. “What do you think?” asked Becker. “I don’t know yet. I started not to hear my
President Biden will transfer power to Vice President Kamala Harris Friday morning for the "brief period of time" when he is under anesthesia for a "routine" colonoscopy at Walter Reed Medical Center, the White House said Friday. The president traveled to Bethesda, Maryland, for a physical exam, one day before his 79th birthday. Biden arrived at 8:51 a.m. ET and waved to reporters who were traveling with him. White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Biden will also undergo a colonoscopy while there. "As was the case when President George W. Bush had the same procedure in 2002 and
The reemergence of Beto O’Rourke, this time as a candidate for Texas governor, is further proof that we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel for saviors to rise from these streets. Once a rising star, O’Rourke is likely to end his bid to replace Texas Gov. Greg Abbott as a three-time loser. (Snip) Aside from losing elections, he also lost his way. Between 2018 and today, O’Rourke transitioned multiple times from affable “nice guy” to “cool” Gen-Xer to angry woke progressive. “On issues like universal health care, an assault weapons ban, abortion rights and a higher minimum wage,” wrote NPR’s

Kamala Harris became the first woman ‘acting president’ on Friday when President Joe Biden underwent a brief, routine medical procedure in what press secretary Jen Psaki called, a moment “that will be noted for many women, young girls across the country.” Harris, who is the first female Vice President, served as acting president for a whole hour and 25 minutes while Biden was under anesthesia for a colonoscopy and medical exam at Walter Reed Medical Center.Harris technically became the first female in the country’s history to hold the commander-in-chief’s office– however brief it may have been.

One of CNN’s responses to Kyle Rittenhouse’s acquittal on murder and reckless endangerment charges Friday was to publish a lengthy column by a black senior writer and producer declaring that the “angry white man” is “more frightening in America” today than anything else.“…[A]s I’ve watched three separate trials about White male violence unfold across the US these past few weeks — the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, the Ahmaud Arbery death trial and the civil case against organizers of the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville — I’ve come to a sobering conclusion: There is nothing more frightening in America today than an angry White man,” wrote John Blake
Eighty looters ransacked a Nordstrom store in California's Bay Area on Saturday night, injuring at least three employees in a raid that lasted less than a minute. The large group,wearing ski masks and carrying crowbars, rushed the Walnut Creek store, stole an undetermined amount of merchandise and fled in their vehicles.
During the theft, two Nordstrom workers were punched and kicked, while another was sprayed with pepper spray.(Snip)The brazen robbery comes as Bay Area businesses reduce their hours due to a spate of brazen shoplifting incidents. Locals are also slamming woke San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin over his failure to prosecute thefts.
A car traveling at high speed plowed into a holiday parade in suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin, killing several people and leaving at least 27 others injured, including 12 children.
Terrifying video posted to social media shows a speeding red SUV collide with a group of people marching in the middle of the street during the annual Christmas parade in Waukesha, some 20 miles west of downtown Milwaukee.
A person of interest is now in custody, according to police. Despite earlier reports of gunshots, police said they do not believe the driver was armed.
The head of the fire department said that 11 adults and 12 children

In the movie Moneyball, Oakland Athletics general manager Billy Beane queries his team of scouts when discussing a prospective player, “If he's a good hitter, why doesn't he hit good?” The scouts all have solid explanations, at least in their minds (snip) What if we ask the same question about COVID vaccines, rephrased as “If the vaccines work, why aren’t they working?” (snip) The CDC on its website claims, “Research provides evidence that COVID-19 vaccines are effective at preventing COVID-19.” Yet cases in highly vaccinated locations are surging, now almost two years into the COVID pandemic. As Billy Beane might say, “If the vaccines work, why aren’t they working?”
Kyle Rittenhouse, who was recently acquitted by a Kenosha, WI jury on multiple charges, including murder, told Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson that he actually supported peaceful demonstrations and the Black Lives Matter movement.
He also insists he is not racist during a preview of an interview set to air on Monday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
“This case has nothing to do with race,” Rittenhouse said. “It never had anything to do with race. It had to do with the right to self-defense.”
“I’m not a racist person,” he continued. “I support the BLM movement. I support peacefully demonstrating. I believe there needs to be change
The relationship between Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and their respective staffs has been on rocky ground for months. As RedState previously reported, the vice president and her camp have complained about being abandoned, even blaming racism as a possible factor, while the White House has fretted at Harris’ sheer incompetence and inability to garner support on her own. Those tensions have led to lots of speculation about what exactly happens in 2024. Harris is clearly a terrible candidate, something she showed during the 2020 presidential primary, but she’s also the heir apparent until Democrats forcibly remove her from that position.
A hypersonic weapon test carried out by China in July featured a missile fired at five times the speed of sound - a technological feat which no other country has demonstrated, according to US intelligence. The hypersonic glide vehicle - a spacecraft with the ability to carry a nuclear warhead - fired a missile mid-flight over the South China Sea, catching Pentagon scientists unawares.Experts at Darpa - the Pentagon's advanced research agency - are apparently still baffled at how China was able to defy the constraints of physics to fire a weapon from the vehicle travelling at hypersonic speed, the Financial Times reports.

On Saturday, Star Wars star Pedro Pascal jumped to his Twitter account to memorialize two of the men who threatened and attacked Illinois teenager Kyle Rittenhouse, insisting they were “murdered.”
The day after Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges brought against him by the state of Wisconsin, Pascal wrote that Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber were “murdered,” not killed in self-defense. “Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 27, murdered August 25th, 2020,” he said, posting a photo of the two men’s faces. “Rest In Peace.” Some fans were shocked that Pascal would be celebrating the lives of two convicted felons, one of who was a level-three sex offender and both
