This article originally appeared on Canncon Substack. Before I begin, if you believe Uvalde, Parkland, or any of the other school shootings didn’t happen, stop reading. As we all try our best to make sense of another mass killing in the United States, we’re learning more and more about the situation and getting a better

In the wake of the deadly shooting that took place at a school in Uvalde, Texas, earlier this week, San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler announced on Friday that he will stop observing the national anthem until his sentiments about the direction of the nation shift. During remarks on Friday, he said, “I don’t plan
(Natural News) If I personally had the power to liberate them I would do it. Notwithstanding the fact that I had at least one of my relatives killed in a Nazi concentration camp by real Nazis. But sadly all I have to support them with are my words. (Article republished from Expose-News.com) But words are
Florida Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services Nikki Fried, who is competing in the state’s Democratic gubernatorial primary, announced that she signed a pledge in support of banning assault weapons. Prior to making the announcement, people on social media had been expressing disapproval that Fried had not signed the pledge, but Fried said that she
The Toronto police fatally shot a man after he was reportedly seen carrying a gun in a residential area of the city on Thursday afternoon, Reuters reports. The weapon in question was reportedly a pellet gun, a police watchdog agency now says. What are the details? Authorities shot and killed a male suspect who was
Concerned over the possibility that the Supreme Court may soon overturn Roe v. Wade, thus ending the federal legalization of abortion, San Diego’s city council voted unanimously on Tuesday to declare the city a safe place for “reproductive freedom and access to abortion.” The move “carries no legal weight and wouldn’t matter much if it
In the anti-gun hurricane that has been the liberal media’s response to the tragic Texas school shooting all week, including calls for sweeping bans on everything from rifles to handguns to shotguns, the eye of that storm seemed to pass over CNN’s The Lead on Thursday as anchor Jake Tapper brought on the founder of
By now, we’re all quite familiar with the usual cycle of a mass shooting followed by more gun control followed by a mass shooting followed by more gun control, etc., etc., ad nauseum. One would think that by now our “enlightened” political leadership would have figured out that gun control doesn’t work. It seems that despite
(Natural News) As you might expect, the current White House occupant is about to rake in boatloads of cash from the new monkeypox “vaccines” that are currently under development. The Penn Biden Center, a globalist think tank at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital, is receiving a flood of cash, we now know, to create the
As soon as Tesla CEO Elon Musk started talking about buying Twitter and the radical concept of free speech, it seemed inevitable that some virtue-signaling leftists who owned Teslas would suddenly be sickened by their “environmentally-friendly” vehicles and desperately search for a different vehicle to prove their wokeness to their progressive contemporaries. So it was
I’m beginning to think the liberal media doesn’t understand what “bipartisanship” means. At least Bob Costas seems to have some trouble with the term, as his Friday morning interview on CNN’s New Day veered off from a fairly grounded discussion of much of the professional sports world’s advocacy for gun control into a string of
A New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene ad about drug use features a statement in quotes that declares, “Don’t be ashamed you are using, be empowered that you are using safely” — the quote appears to be attributed to an individual named “Florence.” “Fentanyl is a powerful opioid that can be found
“God Bless the USA” singer Lee Greenwood pulled out of the annual NRA Convention this weekend in Texas following the Uvalde, Texas mass shooting earlier this week. Greenwood told FOX News, “That weapon killed kids.” Advertisement – story continues below [embedded content] FOX News reported: TRENDING: Two Unnamed Boys the Same Age as the Shooter
The New York Yankees and the Tampa Bay Rays announced on Thursday that they would post information about the ramifications of “gun violence.” One of the tweets included the word “Latinx,” and U.S. Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.) questioned the use of that term. “Each year, more than 4,100 Latinx people die from gun violence in
Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Dak Prescott said Wednesday that the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Texas has made him “fearful to have children.” Prescott and other members of the NFL team reacted to the massacre in Uvalde, Texas, where 19 children and two teachers were slain by a disturbed gunman on Tuesday. “I don’t
A news outlet was promptly fact-checked on Friday after publishing a story that claimed purchasing an AR-15 rifle online is like “ordering groceries.” What was claimed? Zach Seward, editor-in-chief of Quartz, tweeted on Thursday, “We bought a gun—the same Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 assault rifle used in Uvalde. It was like ordering groceries. Click, checkout,
Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt has been popping off lately. On Thursday, Gov. Stitt signed an Oklahoma abortion ban that prohibits abortion from the the moment of conception in almost all cases. This week, Stitt also signed a bill to ensure pre-k through 12th grade students use restrooms that align with their biological sex, Fox News reported today. The fight for
It was inevitable. In fact, I wonder why it took so long. HBO’s Bill Maher has been mocking leftists quite a lot recently. On Friday’s episode of Real Time, he questioned the gender transitioning of children. Maher observed that “we’re literally experimenting on children” by giving them puberty blockers and other “gender-affirming” treatments when they say they’re
(Natural News) In “The Corbett Report” above,1 independent journalist James Corbett reviews the contents of Bill Gates’ book, “How to Prevent the Next Pandemic.” “It’s every bit as infuriating, nauseating, ridiculous, laughable and risible as you would expect,” he says. “This is a ridiculous book … There’s certainly nothing of medical or scientific value in here … It’s
After an 18-year-old killer massacred 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas on Tuesday, the New York Times geared up for another attempt at federal gun control, under the name of “gun safety,” even while admitting deep into its coverage that long-desired Democratic proposals would probably not have prevented the massacre.
Former President Barack Obama told his 132 million Twitter followers how they could get involved with reimagining policing. George Floyd’s death certainly reimagined policing. You can see the consequences of “Saint George’s” reimagined police force in the reluctant and deliberate reaction to the 18-year-old psychopath Salvador Ramos. This reimagined system of policing kept officers in
A school board in Tennessee recommended that an elementary school principal be fired this week after surveillance video showed her dragging a special needs student through the hallway by his ankles. What happened? In a school board meeting on Thursday, board members voted 5-2 to pass a recommendation for termination, accusing Walter Hill Elementary Principal
Two quick reminders before we begin. First, all names of the accused have been changed to Florida Man or Florida Woman to protect the…whatever they might be. Second, every state has terrible news, but Florida’s best-in-the-nation Sunshine Law means we get the silliest-in-the-nation stories almost exclusively from just one state. And by Friday afternoon, we
(Natural News) It’s now 100% clear that the Uvalde mass shooting was a “stand down operation,” meaning law enforcement was deliberately ordered to stand down so that the massacre could take place. The goal? Gun control, of course. “Uvalde police stood outside school while parents urged them to go inside during shooting,” declares the title
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott will no longer appear in person at the National Rifle Association’s convention in Houston on Friday and will instead travel to Uvalde, where a deranged gunman murdered 19 children and two teachers earlier this week. Instead, the governor will give a pre-recorded address, a spokesman for his campaign said. “Gov. Abbott
It looks like Democratic Texas gubernatorial candidate Robert “Beto” O’Rourke has flipped his position on AR-15s once again, according to a Fox News report. Beto the political chameleon has changed his position on gun control repeatedly over the course of his three major political bids since 2018. Here’s a quick recap: In 2018, while running
Sky News reporter Mark Stone has gone viral this week for his combative interview with Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) attempting to shame him for refusing to endorse mass gun control measures (so, like those back in Europe). Between Thursday night and Friday morning, the confrontation was trumpeted on ABC, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC with Stone
NewsBusters deputy managing editor Nick Fondacaro and I assumed the helm for Friday’s show and, following a heavy week for the country following Tuesday’s deadly school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, we spent the episode doing a deep dive on the various liberal media narratives that immediately came to the surface. Whether it concerned a liberal
President Trump calls the US election process ‘third world’ as the Pennsylvania GOP Senate race goes to a recount. Ten days ago, on May 17th, the state of Pennsylvania voted for their GOP candidate for Senate. The state has not yet determined a winner. Dr. Oz holds the lead with less than 1,000 votes. More
When does Teen Vogue like conservatives? When they sacrifice their principles at the altar of leftism. Teen Vogue writer Katrina Froelich uses her family’s bipartisan involvement in promoting abortion to justify the immoral act of abortion. Her Republican grandfather and Democrat mother both advocated for pro-abortion laws. In the wake of the possible overturn of
