Jammie Booker has been stripped of the title "World's Strongest Woman" after it was revealed that the competitor is "biologically male."

After the 28-year-old Booker won the competition in Arlington, Tex., on Monday, several competitors were sent explicit pictures and videos appearing to show that Booker is a transgender ex-porn star, according to the Daily Mail.

Official Strongman Games announced the decision to strip Booker of the title, with Andrea Thompson being elevated to first place.

Good.  Send a message to those freaks of nature.

Sarah Beckstrom has died from her injuries she suffered after being shot by Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal.

Donald Trump said Thursday that his administration is examining whether to deport the family of Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the suspect accused of shooting two National Guard members in Washington, D.C.

When asked directly by a reporter whether he intends to remove Lakanwal's wife and children from the United States, Trump responded: "Well, we're looking at that right now. We're looking at the whole situation with family."

After a quarter of a century, one console still reigns supreme.

It has been nearly 25 years to the day since iconic photos and video of the Paris launch showed just how crazy the world was for PlayStation 2.

On November 24, 2000, crowds in Europe lined up, camped, and even pushed through crowds to get their hands on a PlayStation 2 for the first time. The launch was almost a month after the American Oct. 26 debut and signified a true consumerism-fueled riot that became synonymous with Black Friday.

The PS2 has sold an average of over 6 million consoles per year since then, or 500,000 per month, totaling more than 160 million lifetime units sold as of this November.

Xbox 360 was bad.  I had the red ring of death happen to me twice.

In 2013, Mississippi ranked 49th out of the 50 U.S. states in grade four reading achievement on the National Assessment of Educational Progress — the largest continuing national assessment of American students' knowledge and capability in math, reading, science, and writing.

In what has repeatedly been dubbed a "miracle," the state made its way up the list — to 29th in 2019 and then 10 spots higher to ninth place nationally for reading scores last year.

According to the NAEP, black students in Mississippi ranked third nationally last year among their cohort for reading and math scores; Hispanic students in the state ranked first in the nation for reading and second for math scores; and poor students in the Magnolia State ranked first for reading and second for math scores nationally.

The assessment noted that "Mississippi is one of only a few states with improved NAEP scores since 2013. In most states, NAEP scores have been falling over the past decade."

A rootless generation looks for home in dark places.

Quotefriend who works with high school students recently said to me, "I overheard a group of boys talking about 'international Jewry.'" He was in disbelief to hear these seemingly mild-mannered kids express views that, not 20 years ago, would have been considered taboo.

What is going on with Gen Z?

I've written elsewhere that Gen Z is experiencing a kind of church resurgence. That remains true. But at the same time, Gen Z is one of the most polarized generations in American history.

In 2024, Gen Z—led in part by young activists like Charlie Kirk and Scott Pressler—shifted toward Donald Trump. He won 46% of Gen Z voters—56% of young men and 40% of young women. This led many to expect that a younger, more populist generation would shift the country rightward. But now, in 2025, the self-proclaimed Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani won 78% of the youth vote in New York City—67% of young men and 84% of young women. Far from being locked into any one existing political party, young people are more divided than ever.

One cause of this is what I call "Nomadic Progressivism." Kids born between, say, 1997 and 2012 have been thoroughly inundated with progressivism and identity politics from birth. They came of age amid several key developments that shaped their moral and social formation:

The passage of Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) and the legalization of same-sex marriage.
The killing of Trayvon Martin and the rise of Black Lives Matter.
The surge of transgender activism that dominated headlines in the early 2020s.
The appearance of Greta Thunberg and the new climate movement.
The explosive growth of Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram, and Vine.
We could list hundreds of others, but these movements captured Gen Z's moral imagination. Each sought, in the name of justice or progress, to undermine the inherited order, replacing the inherited structures of culture with moral and social uncertainty.

Gen Z grew up bullied by progressive ideology, and until the shocking election of Donald Trump in 2016, there was no visible reaction. Society appeared to be marching unopposed toward progressive utopia. But Trump's election broke the spell. His first term was marked by protests, the rise of transgender ideology, and a wave of social revolt.

Then came COVID-19. As the Left preached "safety," Gen Z was locked inside, immersed in a digital environment, and wracked by depression and anxiety. Created for engagement and real community, young people were instead sent to their rooms and told to stay there.

This, I believe, is the key: progressivism prepared the soil for radicalization. It removed the roots—churches, families, communities—that once grounded Gen Z's moral life. It left young people searching for belonging in a barren landscape.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent most of Thanksgiving evening in handcuffs while the NYPD sorted through a "domestic disturbance" at her family's Annual gathering.
While no charges were filed, sources close to the situation say AOC was the instigator of an argument over politics that turned "dangerously violent."
"She's not a very rational person," said one of the officers on scene, "She doesn't let anyone get a word in edgewise."
Is anyone really surprised?

A convicted sex offender college professor whose criminal past made him "ineligible for legal status in the United States" has been arrested by ICE, according to a DHS press release published earlier this week.

On November 12, ICE officers arrested Sumith Gunasekera of Sri Lanka in Detroit. According to the press release, he told officers that he was employed as an associate professor at Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan, about 200 miles northwest of Detroit.

Gunasekera first came to the U.S. in February 1998, spent some time in Canada, and then returned to the U.S. later that year on a student visa, the press release said.

During his stint in Canada, he was arrested in Brampton, Ontario, on two separate occasions just three days apart. In the first instance, he was arrested for uttering death threats. In the second, he was arrested for invitation to sexual touching and sexual interference. He told officers at the time that the second incident involved a minor, DHS reported.

In November 1998, a Canadian criminal court convicted him of utter threat to cause death or bodily harm and sexual interference and sentenced him to one month of incarceration and one year of probation, DHS said.

In 2012, Gunasekera filed for a change in immigration status with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, at which point his Canadian convictions came to light. Those convictions rendered him "ineligible for legal status in the United States," the press release said. Despite his ineligibility, Gunasekera "repeatedly attempted to manipulate our immigration system between applications, denials, and appeals," it added.

"It's sickening that a sex offender was working as a professor on an American college campus and was given access to vulnerable students to potentially victimize them," said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. "Thanks to the brave ICE law enforcement officers, this sicko is behind bars and no longer able to prey on Americans. His days of exploiting the immigration system are OVER. Under President Trump and Secretary Noem, criminals are not welcome in the U.S."

Sanctuary city policies continue to shield criminal illegal aliens amid the Trump administration's ongoing effort to ramp up deportations.

The Department of Homeland Security revealed Monday that there are thousands of known criminal illegal aliens currently incarcerated in New York City that Immigration and Customs Enforcement is seeking to remove from the country.

"We're seeing that these criminal illegal aliens are exiting the jails and going back on to New York, or Chicago, or these other sanctuary streets to re-perpetuate their crimes," DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News.

"Today, in New York City's jails are 7,169 criminal illegal aliens," McLaughlin continued. "We're talking about hundreds of murderers, hundreds of sexual predators, drug traffickers, the worst of the worst."
