The WNBA is different from the NBA in more ways than one Yes, there's a transgender issue, but it's also a league selling glamour.

My good friend — OK, OK, I’ve never actually met him, but we follow each other on Twitter! — Dr Keeneland Dan got it just about right:

  • Enes Kanter did us a service by declaring for the 2027 WNBA draft, exposing the hypocrisy of the ‘transgender’ agenda; and
  • Having done that, Mr Kanter needs to stop acting like a clown
  • Males — I won’t call them men — need to stay out of women’s sports, restrooms, and locker rooms

The left seem determined to hold that the ‘transgendered’ are actually the sex they claim to be, rather than the sex biology has made them. They believe that men and women are absolutely equal, something which should be true under the law, but is clearly not the case when it comes to physical ability. Males are simply, as a general thing, bigger, taller, stronger, quicker, and faster than females; the concept of sexual dimorphism has been known for as long as humans were aware of sex, and it exists not only in humans, but virtually all animals. Males being larger and stronger than females occurs in most animal species, though the reverse is true in a few of them. But those who insist that men and women are absolutely equal simply cannot bear to acknowledge that: if men are bigger and stronger than women, then the left and the feminists worry that such implies that men are superior to women, and that simply cannot be accepted.

If someone was out to destroy transgender acceptance, what would he be doing differently? Telling the truth they call hate because they hate the truth.

My good friend Dave Huber, Hube from my Delaware days and previous blog, noted on The College Fix the utter indoctrination of the education establishment when it comes to the cockamamie idea that girls can be boys and boys can be girls:

Colorado teacher reprimanded for wearing shirt affirming biological sex to educator workshop

By Dave Huber – Associate Editor | Friday, August 21, 2026

A Colorado elementary school teacher allegedly was reprimanded for wearing a shirt emblazoned with “XX-XY,” a popular symbol for noting there are only two genders.

But Stacy Adair said she was attending a pre-school-year inservice — a teacher professional development at which no students were present. Continue reading

Let’s annex Canada, but leave out Ontario and Quebec! We'll take British Columbia, but not allow the people there to vote.

I have said it before: when we annex Canada, we need to leave Ontario and Quebec out of it!

“Responds by Hitting a Deep Three”: WNBA World Reacts As Sophie Cunningham Gets Booed in Toronto

Chaitanya Sharma | Wednesday, August 19, 2026 | 2:05 AM EDT

The Toronto Tempo hosted the Indiana Fever on Tuesday. The Fever got the better of the home team, who were looking to get back to winning ways after a tough stretch of 10 straight losses. Unfortunately for Toronto, the streak extended to 11 as the Fever won their fifth straight game.

While there were many key contributors for the Fever, the Toronto crowd seemed focused on one opposition player more than others. Sophie Cunningham was the recipient of a special welcome from the Tempo fans and was repeatedly booed over the course of the game. Continue reading

Journalism differences between the Lexington Herald-Leader and Philadelphia Inquirer. ** Updated! ** When a poor newspaper outclasses a wealthy one

The First Street Journal has twice reported on the mass shooting in Charles Young Park in Lexington, Kentucky. We also noted the murder of a 78-year-old man in North Philadelphia Tuesday afternoon.

But there’s a significant difference in coverage between two newspapers to which we subscribe, The Philadelphia Inquirer and Lexington Herald-Leader. The Lexington newspaper is, to put it frankly, dying. Staff have been cut, there have been three General Managers in just a few years, and the paper, which once covered most of eastern and southeastern Kentucky, is a mere shadow if its former self, almost entirely restricted to Lexington now, and print publishing only thrice a week.

Killadelphia Four shooters, over fifty rounds fired, sounds like a gang hit to me!

We noted, just a few days ago, that there had been 108 murders in the City of Brotherly Love, through Sunday, August 9th. The city’s George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, following that weekend in which six people were murdered, said:

We had a bad weekend. We’re not having a bad year.

I contrasted Philly’s murder rate with that of Lexington, Kentucky, which, when I wrote, had four homicides all year, noting that Philly was 4.77 times Lexington’s size but has 27 times as many killings. Then Lexington had its fifth murder, as we reported here and here.

Well, it looks like Philly didn’t want to be left behind!

You in a heap o’ trouble, boy! ** Updated! ** At some point it has to be asked: how stupid can people be?

The Lexington Police went from saying Sunday morning that they “have no updates” on the mass shooting at Charles Young Park to the (alleged) shooter being in jail Sunday evening. I suppose that’s the kind of thing the police do to not alert the suspect that they are hot on his heels.

18-year-old arrested, charged with murder and assault after shooting at Lexington park

By Valarie Honeycutt Spears | Monday, August 17, 2026 | 4:34 AM EDT | Updated: 9:09 AM EDT

An 18-year-old man was arrested Sunday and charged with killing one and injuring four in a mass shooting, according to the Lexington Police Department.

No, of course the Lexington Herald-Leader did not publish the suspect’s mugshot, but WLKY did, and one of my electronic friends tweeted it out to the world. Continue reading

So, what would Andy Beshear do? Leave it to Candy Andy to politicize everything * Updated! *

We noted, just two days ago, that, in contrast to foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy Philadelphia, Lexington, Kentucky had seen only four homicides thus far in 2026. Alas! that number will have to be updated:

5 shot, 1 killed at a Lexington park, police say. 4-year-old among those injured

By Karla Ward | Saturday, August 15, 2026 | 8:33 PM EDT | Updated: 10:39 PM EDT

Five people were shot, including one who was killed, in an incident at Lexington’s Charles Young Park Saturday night, according to Lexington Police Chief Lawrence Weathers and Gov. Andy Beshear.

Beshear announced the shooting while speaking at a Kentucky Democratic Party dinner at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Lexington Saturday, but Weathers provided additional information shortly after at the scene of the shooting. Continue reading

But it’s not my fault!

I confess: I sometimes spend too much time on Facebook, and one of the things that keeps appearing there are posts from people, purporting to be alpha males, telling us that women cannot be trusted, that women will leave you for the handsomer or wealthier guy who happens to come along. Man are strong and blameless, and women are just there for men as long as no one better comes along. Lose your job — unjustly, of course — and women will leave, even though there are hundreds of thousands of wives who have stuck by husbands who’ve faced such reverses. These things are written by ‘men’ who never take responsibility for their own failures, but have to find someone else to blame.

If your wife leaves you, maybe it is because you just weren’t a good enough husband.

Robert Stacy McCain wrote:

Call it The Self-Pity Blame Loop. If you are unwilling to accept responsibility for the consequences of your own behavior, you must seek scapegoats to blame. This leads to a pattern, viewing yourself as the victim of unfair treatment, and indulging in self-pity, while becoming resentful of more fortunate people. . . .

If you know people like this, you know the key to their entire personality involves a single sentence: “It’s not my fault!

Killadelphia Yes, homicides are down, but that doesn't mean things are good

Our Killadelphia posts have decreased in frequency since the bad old days of 2021 and 2022, and naturally the city’s George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, claims that his policies are working, but it’s never a surprise when one killing leads to another in the City of Brotherly Love.

Shooting of Philly couple was likely retribution for earlier killing, sources say

Police are seeking Shariff Perry, 35, in connection with the fatal shooting on Sunday in Strawberry Mansion.
