Nearly two weeks ago after surviving an attempt on his life, it appeared as if Donald Trump had sewn up November’s election.

Then, on Sunday night, Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed the cackling biracial knob-gobbler Kamala Harris as his replacement.

On Monday, Illinois State Police released bodycam footage of a white male officer shooting a mentally ill black woman dead in her home. The shooting had occurred back on July 6, but in politics, timing is everything. (more…)

Joe Biden Quits the Race and Endorses Kamala Harris

In January I’d written about how I found myself “violently disinterested” in this year’s upcoming presidential election.

I’m still cynical about the idea that it matters who’s president when it seems obvious that the country is like a terminal patient waiting to die. In fact, I’m cynical about the idea that it ever mattered who’s president, when it seems obvious that bankers have always run the country. (more…)

As we all commemorate National Watermelon Month and finalize plans to celebrate National Watermelon Day on August 3, it has come to my attention that many black people are terrified of eating watermelon in front of whites.

What a strange thing to fear. I’d think it’s better than being tied to a post and whipped for getting uppity with your slave master, but I’ve never been a black slave, so I wouldn’t know. (more…)

But as far as I can remember, it was the first time that high-ranking opponents expressed sympathy and support for America’s most reviled man. (more…)

In the all-white neighborhood of my youth, the faraway people who are now known as “Hispanics” . . . or, more dubiously, as “Latinos” . . . or, unforgivably, as “Latinx” . . . were referred to with the catchall slur “Spics.”

It wasn’t until I reached my mid-teens and found cause to boldly venture into the City of Brotherly Love that I encountered any real-life Hispanics, who all seemed to be Puerto Rican. When I started driving a cab in Philly during my late teens and early 20s, it seemed as if that crumbled city’s most blighted areas were mostly inhabited by Puerto Ricans rather than blacks. (more…)

On Thursday, June 20, Major League Baseball sponsored an event called “A Tribute to the Negro Leagues” at Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama, where Negro players used to vie against other Negro players back before the brave and holy Negro Jackie Robinson famously broke baseball’s color barrier in 1947.

Joe Biden’s Cognitive Decline: A Symbol of America’s Deterioration

In case you’re one of the three or four people left on the planet without an Internet connection, you’re aware that Joe Biden’s handlers didn’t pump him full of enough speedballs and smart pills last week to save him, (more…)

Jim Goad has produced a short film to accompany his latest essay, “Buttocks-‘n’-Basketball Bash Banned in Blacktown,” on the cancellation of and fallout that followed from a high school event featuring a group of lard-assed black women in bikinis dribbling and twerking in the school gym for cash prizes in a basketball competition called “Nuttin’ But Az” in that all-American town of Newark, New Jersey.

When you hear “NBA,” do you think “National Basketball Association” or “Nuttin’ But Azz”?

Newark, New Jersey, that bleak post-industrial mega-ghetto posing as a city, doesn’t have a professional basketball team, so all signs point to “Nuttin’ But Azz.” (more…)
