  • The White House Weighs in on White Genocide
    Feb 27 2025
    In February of 2012, racist skinheads in California rallied at the capitol building in Sacramento. They were trying to raise awareness for an imaginary problem - an ongoing genocide against white South African farmers. In February of 2025, the President of the United States signed an executive order stripping foreign aid from South Africa as punishment for that same imaginary problem. Sources:Falkof, Nicky. (2022).

    Feb 20 2025
    "They got what they wanted." Those were the words of Don Logan after a February 11, 2025 meeting of the Scottsdale, Arizona city council. Twenty-one years after Dennis Mahon tried to murder Logan with a package bomb, the city of Scottsdale finished what the klansman started: they closed the city's diversity office.

  • A Short-Lived Pardon
    Feb 6 2025

    In January of 2025, Matthew Huttle was one of nearly 1600 people to receive a pardon from Donald Trump for his participation in the January 6, 2021 riot. Less than a week later, he was dead - shot and killed in an altercation with a sheriff's deputy during a traffic stop in Indiana.

  • The Co-Conspirators: Dennis Mahon, Pt. 5
    Jan 16 2025

    This is the end of Dennis Mahon's story. In 2012, he was convicted for building the bomb that went off in the hands of Scottsdale, Arizona's director of Diversity & Dialogue in 2004. In the eyes of the law, Dennis and Dennis alone is guilty in that case... but the investigation leaves a lot of unanswered questions about his co-conspirators.
