In a bizarre development, Benjamin Erickson, the “person of interest” in the Brown University mass shooting, has been released A person of interest related to the Brown University mass shooting was being released from custody, officials said during a late night press conference on Dec. 14, though no new security alert or lockdown is in place. “We want to inform the community that that individual will shortly be released from

The mass shooter at Brown University apparently has been caught. Authorities are extremely tight-lipped. They have said nothing about the murderer except that he is in his 20s. We don’t know whether he was connected to the university, nor has there been any hint as to a motive. However, it is being said–I don’t know how accurately–that a specific classroom was targeted, and that the class was taught by a

How times have changed. The news continues to flow out of Minnesota. I’m quoted in this new piece from Fox News (Opinion) under the lengthy headline, How fears of being labeled ‘racist’ helped ‘provide cover’ for the exploding Minnesota fraud scandal: Time and time again, experts tell Fox News Digital, fears of being called ‘racist’ killed enthusiasm for uncovering Minneapolis fraud. You’ve heard me explain this theory before. One of

The murderer of two Brown University students is still at large this morning. Whoever he is, he injured nine more in his rampage. The New York Times live updates on the shootings reported a few minutes: “Officials indicated that they had not identified the attacker, who escaped the Ivy League school onto the streets of Providence, Rhode Island’s capital. They released a video that showed a person leaving the scene

We haven’t had much let up in nationwide news coverage of the multi-billion-dollar theft of taxpayer money here in Minnesota. Local media have moved on and are now fixated on operations by ICE to round up illegal immigrants. Some of the these encounters have been confrontational. In a coincidence, a Mexican national (confusingly named Roberto Carlos Munoz-Guatemala) was convicted in a jury trial in federal court in St. Paul today

We have been following the case of “Minnesota man” Abdimahat Bille Mohamed. He is a serial rapist who has been treated with extreme leniency by state authorities. However spelled, the name “Mohamed” does a lot of work with them. I noted the federal charges brought against Mohamed here and posted the criminal complaint in the federal case here. KARE 11’s Lou Raguse updates the story in the video below. Serial

David Zimmer told the appalling story of Adbimahat Bille Mohamed at AmericanExperiment.org. Briefly, Mohamed is a serial rapist. In 2017, he raped a 15-year-old girl. He was not charged in the initial investigation, but was later identified through DNA. In 2024, he raped another woman. These are some of the charges he faced: During the pre-trial phase of the May 2024 rape case, Mohamed’s DNA sample was entered into the

From London, another story about disgusting protesters: “‘Tax the rich’ activists vandalise Crown Jewels with crumble and custard.” Police arrested four people after officers rushed to the Tower following reports of an incident shortly before 10am. They found that food had been thrown onto a case containing the State Crown, which is used at coronations and state openings of Parliament. A group calling itself Take Back Power staged the attack,

This is one of the more shocking stories of recent times: a man who once was one of the senior officials in the Drug Enforcement Administration has been arrested for conspiring with a Mexican cartel to launder money and import drugs. This is the indictment. The defendants are Paul Campo and a friend or associate of Campo, Robert Sensi. The indictment recites that Campo spent 25 years in the DEA,

It’s not just U.S. taxpayer money being shipped overseas by the metric ton, it’s news coverage as well. John already mentioned his appearance on Australian television.

After several years of not paying attention, the worldwide media are fascinated by what has happened here in Minnesota: rampant fraud and criminality that cost taxpayers billions of dollars, while our state government was–at best!–asleep at the switch. Yesterday I was on the U.S. Report with James Morrow, on Sky News Australia. My appearance was devoted entirely to the Tim Walz scandal in its various permutations. I addressed exculpatory claims

Three (3) items published yesterday in the Wall Street Journal touch on different aspects of the fraud crisis gripping Minnesota. From the Editorial Board, The Great Entitlement State Grift: The giant Minnesota fraud shows that GOP reformers are right. The Board poses the timely question, What happens when welfare becomes not a temporary hand up but an ingrained expectation of American life? For an ugly glimpse, look at the astonishing

You may have heard about the sickening case of “Minnesota man” Abdimahat Bille Mohamed. Libs of Tiktok picked it up in the X post below. My post here elaborates on Bill’s adjacent post. “Minnesota man” Abdimahat Bille Mohamed r*ped a 15-year-old girl at gunpoint and r*ped another woman he met on snapchat. He struck a plea deal and DID NOT SERVE JAIL TIME. He just r*ped another woman. Who could’ve

From a Department of Justice press release, Abdimahat Bille Mohamed, 28, was charged by complaint with Kidnapping a Minor and Kidnapping, announced U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen. As detailed in the complaint, Mohamed kidnapped and raped a 15-year-old girl in 2017 and an adult woman in 2025. In between, he raped at least three other women. You will recall hearing about this horrific case. From the New York Post, Serial

For Democrats, the January 6, 2021, demonstration at the Capitol was the defining event of the 21st century, so far. They persist in calling it an “insurrection,” even though no one, at the time, had the slightest idea of overthrowing the government and installing the guy with the horns as president. Still, in pursuit of their vendetta, the Democrats have turned the country upside down to identify grandmothers who wandered

As I have written before, I don’t know whether Rahmanullah Lakanwal, who shot two National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C., killing at least one, is 1) a raving lunatic, 2) a devout Muslim–witnesses said that he shouted “Allahu Akbar” as he murdered Americans–or 3) a sucker who fell for Democratic Party talking points. The fact that it is hard to distinguish among these alternatives is revealing. In all likelihood, at least
