Exile on Sesame Street: The terrible glamour of white guilt



As children, most of us were fascinated by storybooks featuring magic. Few kids didn’t fantasize about being able to move objects with their minds or see the future or cast spells that would make their parents blind to a messy room.

It’s probably a power fantasy for young people making their way through a world that seems unfair. Wouldn’t it be great to speak an incantation and make the adults have to obey you?

'Sesame Street' depicted American kids — Asian, Latino, white, black — doing kid things together. And most of my childhood experiences were like that.

But that’s not what magic really is, I’ve learned these past five or 10 years.

Magic words

Magic is real, and spells work. But they’re not “supernatural.” Real magic is words and how we deploy them, when we speak them, who we speak them to, and who we never say them in front of.

Magic is the ability to use mere words to hijack another person’s mind and convince him of falsehoods or compel him to act against his own interest or safety, often happily.

You can see it in the history of the word “glamour.” Today, the term means the kind of beauty or charisma that we expect from rich and famous people. We say of them, of their clothes, of their preternatural good looks, that they are “glamorous.”

But the word started out meaning a specific type of magical spell. This is going to surprise you — the word “glamour” came from old Scots, and it’s a corruption of the word “grammar.”

Yes, it means that people recognized that words are magic, words have power. In the 1600s, you might be said to be suffering under a glamour, a spell cast on you to make you believe an ugly person was beautiful or a simpleton was a genius.

Under a spell

In 2025, we are living in an age of universal magical spells, all from words. We are suffering under a particularly powerful glamour. So powerful is this spell that even people who know it exists will deny that it exists. They will often attack you and say you have malicious intentions if you point to the magical spell.

That spell is white guilt. It’s no use saying “uh-uh” in your mind or objecting and calling your correspondent a “racist” for pointing this out. The spell is real, it has deranged us, and everyone — every single person without exception — knows it. Since at least the 1960s, Americans have become convinced of the following:

  • All misfortune experienced by black people is the result of white racial hatred.
  • Every “system” — from school to employment to the IRS — is “systemically racist.”
  • White people are born with a white-specific original sin called “racism.” White people are born racists, cannot help but be racists, can never not be racists, and must atone publicly and pathetically for their “racism” for the rest of their lives.
  • White people alive today must pay for the sins of other dead white people, even those unrelated to them, who may have owned slaves.
  • The only reason black America has such appalling rates of illiteracy, crime, fatherlessness, and antisocial, violent behavior is because of white racism.

All of that is a lie.

State savior complex

With the introduction of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society Program, black well-being has plunged on every measure. As Sam Jacobs writes in "Black America Before LBJ: How the Welfare State Inadvertently Helped Ruin Black Communities":

The biggest problem resulting from the Great Society is the breakdown of the black family. This is a sensitive subject, but one that must be broached to fully understand the devastating impact that the Great Society has had on the black community in the United States.

In 1965, when the Great Society began in earnest following the massive electoral landslide reelection of LBJ, the out-of-wedlock birthrate among the black community was 21 percent. By 2017, this figure had risen to a whopping 77 percent.

All you need to do is look at FBI statistics to see that black Americans, just 13% of the population, commit the majority of violent crimes. “Disparate impact” indeed.

The hate u give

Open racial hatred of whites by blacks has become normal in America, with the help of white Democrats and liberals who applaud the rudeness and physical aggression against other whites.

The glamour has infantilized black people to the point where they genuinely believe they’re being treated with “racism” if they’re expected to obey the same social and legal codes the rest of us are.

Open social media and you are flooded with videos of black people melting down and screaming at store employees, shouting obscenities in restaurants, or pummeling the daylights out of white peers in public school. It’s not just confirmation bias; everyone sees it, and everyone knows it.

Diss not, lest you be dissed

The last time I had to ask young black men to move their car — they had parked in a travel lane, blocking the egress of a line of drivers — they sprang from their vehicle and threatened to show me what “bitches” like me got for dissing them.

The glamour has a built-in mechanism to keep itself in force: telling the truth about bad black behavior only seems to strengthen the spell. Try pointing out behavior from a black person that wouldn’t be tolerated from a white person, and you’ll have both whites and blacks tell you that your very observation itself is racist. It’s literally lunatic; there is no talking to this calcified mindset.

Making a killing

But it is getting harder to deny that we have a problem with black bad behavior and white enabling. On April 2, 2025, 17-year-old black teen Karmelo Anthony allegedly killed 17-year-old white teen Austin Metcalf. Anthony admitted what he did on the spot to the cops. He claimed Metcalf had put his hands on him, but it’s obvious that Anthony felt “dissed” when Metcalf correctly told him he was seated in someone else’s spot.

The very next day, the slain boy’s white father went on local television telling the world he forgave the killer and then went on several tirades against sympathetic onlookers, accusing them of making the killing into a race issue.

Well, it very likely was a race issue.

Soon after, the alleged killer’s family had the gall to hold a press conference about the fundraiser they launched to help their poor, misunderstood, knife-wielding son. Through their new spokesman, Dominique Alexander — a convicted felon whose charges include forgery, theft, assault, and shaking and hitting a 2-year-old — the family accused the Metcalfs of “racism.”

Yes. The family of the boy who allegedly knifed a teen to death in cold blood stood in front of cameras and implied that he and his family had it coming. It was more astonishingly brazen than the October 13, 1995, spectacle of black "Oprah Winfrey Show" audience members cheering as a jury acquitted O.J. Simpson of the murder of his ex-wife and her friend.

N-word salad

A month after the killing of Austin Metcalf, the internet went berserk over a video depicting white Minnesota mother Shiloh Hendrix calling a young Somali immigrant “the N-word” (term used under duress; the magical glamour around that word has made it imprudent to utter it even as reported speech). Hendrix claimed the boy was rifling through her baby bag and stealing.

It's worth noting that the original incident was not caught on camera. The footage we saw was taken immediately afterward. It came from the phone of the child's 30-year-old uncle Sharmake Beyle Omar, also a Somali immigrant.

It's also of interest that Omar had recently been indicted, but not convicted, for a sex crime involving minors. No, you won’t find mention of that in American media, specifically because the man is black and Somali, and we can’t acknowledge that brown people can ever do bad.

While shooting the video, Omar makes his intention clear: to ruin Hendrix's life by getting her to admit to the slur and to repeat it for his camera. He presses her until she does both.

Diminishing returns

No, this was not a nice way for Hendrix to respond; in fact, it was quite rude. But so is stealing. Rude or not, Ms. Hendrix did not hit a child, harm a child, or do anything even near the level of violence of, say, plunging a dagger into someone’s heart because he asked you to move seats.

But she did mount a fundraiser to help with moving expenses because, naturally, she lost her job and was being targeted for violence locally after having her name plastered over the internet.

This made people — mainly white people — insanely angry. White people are supposed to pay and pay and pay, with no limit, for even the mildest transgression against a “person of color.” And by the way, no, there is no good evidence to support outrage-boosting claims that the child in question was 5 years old (he looked closer to 10) or that he was “autistic.”

You wouldn’t know it from the hysterical, over-the-top condemnations from white people online.

Both sides now

Online commentators, black and white, rich and poor, anonymous and famous, went berserk. They acted as if Ms. Hendrix’s verbal bad behavior was worse than physical violence. They equivocated with statements like this:

Black racists crowdfunded for Karmelo Anthony.
White racists crowdfunded for Shiloh Hendrix.
BOTH are WRONG.

Both are wrong, wrong in the same way, wrong to the same degree. Calling a child the “N-word” is as horrible and bad as killing a white boy who asked you to move your seat. And no, you’re not allowed to be frustrated and verbally slip when an unsupervised (where were his parents?) child starts stealing your diapers and purse items. Just as bad as killing, see?

This is madness. It can only be explained by the magical spell, the glamour, that has us as firmly entranced as the spell that put Briar Rose’s palace to sleep for 100 years in "Sleeping Beauty."

Our deification of black people, our endless excusing of a large portion that is antisocial or criminal, and our extreme punishment of white people who notice it and say “stop doing that to me” is indistinguishable from clinical insanity. It is not normal, it is not proportionate, and it is absolutely not moral.

Black people are full humans beings, just like white people. That means they are capable of being as good, or as bad, as any other human being. They do not deserve special passes to get away with illegal or antisocial behavior.

White people are not to blame for their behavior. We are all responsible for our own behavior. Along with rights come obligations, but there is a contingent of Americans today — black and white — who seem to want to exempt black people from any obligations.

'Street' smart

I hated writing this piece. I never thought I would have even contemplated things like this. My generation grew up on 1970s "Sesame Street," when it taught true color blindness as part of life.

It wasn’t heavy-handed, didactic, or preachy. The show simply depicted American kids — Asian, Latino, white, black — doing kid things together. And most of my childhood experiences were like that. My friends had different skin colors, native languages, and home cultures. But they were just my friends.

Everything has changed. To even write something like this will, itself, bring accusations of “racism” and “white supremacy.” That’s the glamour, the spell.

It’s a lie. And it’s a lie we had better stop telling soon or there really will be the race war that hysterical leftists seem determined to conjure.

Karmelo Anthony, charged with murder, will get HS diploma in 'moment of dignity' — but won't walk commencement stage: Report



Karmelo Anthony — the Texas high school senior charged with murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a Frisco track meet last month — will graduate from Centennial High School and receive his diploma but won't participate in commencement activities, WFAA-TV reported, citing the Next Generation Action Network, an organization advocating for Anthony.

Police arrested Anthony and charged him with first-degree murder after Metcalf was fatally stabbed April 2 at Kuykendall Stadium. Anthony has been on house arrest since his April 14 release from jail, when a judge lowered his bond from $1 million to $250,000. Days later, Anthony reportedly was moved to an undisclosed location after court approval over an "alarming increase in death threats."

'I want to be clear. No student who commits a serious criminal offense (Title V felony) is permitted to participate in the graduation ceremony.'

The NGAN in a news release said Anthony's family reached an agreement with the Frisco Independent School District in which Anthony can graduate without having to attend the final six weeks of classes, after having completed the necessary credits, WFAA reported. However, Anthony won't "participate in any senior graduation activities," the station said, citing the release.

Dominique Alexander, the president of NGAN, called Anthony's graduation "a moment of dignity for Karmelo and a reminder of the power of advocacy done right," WFAA said.

Alexander made headlines when he called Jeff Metcalf — the father of murder victim Austin Metcalf — "disrespectful" for showing up at an April 17 news conference for the Anthony family. After Dallas police were called to the news conference, Jeff Metcalf was seen departing the venue.

Alexander told those gathered at the news conference that Metcalf "was not invited," that "he knows that it's inappropriate to be near [the Anthony] family," and that his presence at the news conference not only "shows you all" his "character" but was also "a disrespect to the dignity of his son."

Alexander also ripped the Frisco ISD at the news conference, claiming district officials were intending to expel Anthony prior to graduation.

The Frisco ISD at the time provided Blaze News with the following statement when asked to comment on Alexander's claim that the district intended to expel Anthony:

While Frisco ISD cannot comment on an individual student's disciplinary record due to student privacy law, we can provide general information about District protocol and relevant law.

If a student in Frisco ISD is charged with a serious crime, called a Title V felony, the District looks at the case and decides if the student should be disciplined. The student and their parents will get a letter explaining what the school recommends.

If the school recommends expulsion, which means the student is removed from school, the student is not allowed to go on any Frisco ISD property while the decision is being made. A meeting will be held where the student can share their side of the story and show any evidence. After the meeting, the District will decide whether to go through with the expulsion and will let the student and parents know.

If the student is expelled, they might still get schoolwork and education through a special program called JJAEP. If the student has already finished everything needed to graduate, the district may let them graduate early instead of going to JJAEP. Whether the student is expelled or chooses to graduate early, they still can't go on any Frisco ISD property.

WFAA said the school district gave much the same response — citing privacy laws — in regard to the NGAN's insistence that Anthony will graduate and receive his diploma.

However, Frisco ISD Superintendent Mike Waldrip wrote an email to Centennial High School staff, students, and families that some news outlets falsely reported that Anthony would walk the stage on graduation day, WFAA said.

"Frisco ISD has learned that misinformation is being shared regarding Centennial High School’s graduation via several media outlets and perpetuated through social media. It is disheartening that the incredible accomplishments and achievements of our Centennial seniors may be dampened by needless fear-mongering, attention-seeking, and media vitriol. Our students, staff, and community deserve better," the letter stated, according to the station.

More from the letter, according to WFAA:

I want to be clear. No student who commits a serious criminal offense (Title V felony) is permitted to participate in the graduation ceremony. Additionally, anyone who trespasses on Frisco ISD property or at a District event will be subject to immediate removal and possible arrest by law enforcement.

Frisco ISD does not condone violence or crime in our schools or at our events and will not reward or celebrate those who hurt others. We work to ensure every student is safe to learn and feels part of our culture of respect, honor, and integrity.

Let’s come together as a community to honor and support our students and staff. This moment is about their success, and they deserve our full attention and encouragement. Congratulations to the Centennial Class of 2025!

Soon after the April 2 stabbing, the arresting officer said Anthony reportedly told him, "I was protecting myself," before the officer questioned him about the incident, WFAA reported, citing the arrest affidavit.

Anthony also reportedly told the officer that Metcalf "put his hands on [him]," the station said, citing the affidavit, after which Anthony was handcuffed.

The arresting officer soon told a fellow officer arriving on the scene that he had the alleged suspect — and Anthony reportedly interjected, "I'm not alleged; I did it," WFAA reported.

A witness reportedly noted to police that Metcalf — an athlete for Memorial High School — told Anthony he had to move from under his team's tent, the station said, citing the affidavit. With that, Anthony opened his bag and reached inside, the witness told police, WFAA said.

"Touch me and see what happens," Anthony told Metcalf, the station added, citing a witness.

Metcalf reportedly touched Anthony, the witness told an officer, and Anthony told Metcalf to punch him and see what would happen, WFAA reported.

The witness said Metcalf then reportedly grabbed Anthony, after which Anthony reportedly pulled out what the witness recalled as a black knife and stabbed Metcalf once in the chest before running away, according to the station, citing the affidavit.

Metcalf reportedly grabbed his chest and told others to get help, the witness told police, according to WFAA.

While Anthony was in the back seat of a police vehicle, an officer saw fresh blood on his left middle finger, the station said, citing the affidavit.

WFAA, citing the document, said that while Anthony was in the back seat of the vehicle, he also reportedly asked the officer if Metcalf was going to be OK. While being escorted to the squad car, Anthony asked an officer if his actions could be considered self-defense.

A GiveSendGo fund for Anthony sits at nearly $529,000 as of Wednesday afternoon.

Anthony's father contended in an interview with the New York Post that “everyone has already made their assumptions about my son, but he’s not what they’re making him out to be." Anthony's father added to the paper that his son "was not the aggressor" and is "a good kid. He works two jobs. He’s an A student, has a 3.7 GPA."

Racial firestorm brewing? New, bold voice fuels ‘Karmelo Anthony grift’



Dr. Umar Johnson — a black activist, psychologist, and motivational speaker widely known as the "Prince of Pan-Africanism” — has weighed in on the “Karmelo Anthony grift.”

On a recent episode of "The Art of Dialogue," Johnson painted Anthony as the sole victim. Jason Whitlock plays the clip.

“Hunter is a 225-pound football player. Hunter is nearly 60 to 70 pounds heavier than Karmelo by himself, but he was not by himself. Hunter was with his brother Austin. Austin is around Hunter's size as well,” Johnson said.

He argued that as a “160-pound black boy” facing “two white boys in racist Texas, both of whom are 60 to 70 pounds heavier,” with intentions to “accost [him] physically,” Karmelo had every right to defend himself.

“I have received text messages from eyewitnesses, and you know what they told me? They said both brothers tried to jump Karmelo. In the state of Texas, you have the right to stand your ground,” Johnson snapped. “If you feel that your life or safety is in imminent danger, you have a right to defend yourself to include using deadly force.”

As for the knife Anthony was allegedly carrying at a school-sponsored event, Johnson justified it by saying, “He's a black man in Texas. Why wouldn't he have a knife?”

From the get-go, Jason’s take on the Karmelo Anthony/Austin Metcalf incident has been that “this is cold-blooded murder ... a simple case of someone overreacting to a verbal conflict.” However, watching the fallout as groups rally to support both boys has led him to believe that the incident is being used as a “stick of dynamite ... to spark violent racial conflict.”

“Umar Johnson is part of lighting the fuse,” he says. “Maybe his inside information is right. ... I don’t believe that’s the actual narrative.”

Granted “we live in a cell phone society,” there’s a good possibility that a video recording will soon reveal the truth.

“Dominique Alexander of the Next Generation Action Network said that he was told there's video evidence of what transpired,” says Jason.

“At some point, they're going to release the video of what happened to Austin Metcalf. ... When that video is released, it's going to be so one-sided and look so bad for Karmelo Anthony and the people that supported Karmelo Anthony,” he predicts, adding that its aim is to be “as triggering as the George Floyd video was in 2020.”

“I believe this video is intended to trigger white people and to so repulse them that they just say, ‘Man, all these black people that supported Karmelo Anthony, this media that wouldn't tell us the truth ... this media that has imposed this racist double standard — this is the line in the sand.”’

“What we just heard from Dr. Umar Johnson was just another piece to the puzzle of stirring this Karmelo Anthony/Austin Metcalf pot to a point that it bubbles over and explodes and there's some sort of racial conflict that happens in the Dallas and the Frisco, Texas, area,” Jason hypothesizes. “They're hoping that it spreads and that it so hardens the hearts of white America that the entire desire to achieve any type of racial harmony in America disappears.”

To hear Whitlock’s take on the dark, racially divided future the radical left is conspiring to facilitate, watch the episode above.

GiveSendGo founder on the truth behind Karmelo Anthony’s account



GiveSendGo founder Jacob Wells has come under fire for platforming Karmelo Anthony, whose family has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars on the platform after Anthony allegedly stabbed and killed Austin Metcalf.

While the entire story of what really happened has yet to be told, Wells has defended his decision to platform Anthony from a position of Christian and conservative values.

“I’m sure you’re familiar with Kyle Rittenhouse,” Wells tells Jason Whitlock on “Jason Whitlock Harmony.” “When his campaign was kicked off of GoFundMe and every other platform, all the other crowdfunding platforms, Facebook shutting it down, whatever — it landed on our platform.”


“We saw massive amounts of hate from the left at that moment, massive amounts of information, misinformation, being posted throughout the media about the situation. And we said, ‘Well, you know what, there’s actually a principle here that people ought to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, not public opinion,’” Wells explains.

“It’s a biblical position,” he continues. “So we allowed that campaign. And then that kind of opened up the door where people said, ‘Well, here’s a platform that’s just not canceling people whenever, like GoFundMe has been and still does,’” he continues.

This reputation the platform has gained has attracted people who wanted to help people like the truckers in Canada and Daniel Penny.

“Daniel Penny’s campaign was another big one,” he says. “We’ve had many, many, legal defense funds for people that were accused of violent crimes, accused of murdering people by the prosecution.”

“And so we said, ‘You know what, this principle of presumption of innocence and not ruled by mobs really ought to be preserved in difficult circumstances,’ and that led us to where we are now,” he continues, noting that Karmelo Anthony’s family did not even start the campaign for him; it was someone else.

This was the same for Kyle Rittenhouse, as a stranger set up his GiveSendGo.

“So the Anthony family took over the campaign, and then in the process, a lot of fake news came out, as it does around all of these high-profile events, about the spending of funds, the use of funds being used for things like buying a Cadillac — fake news, not true — buying a house — fake news, not true — lots of fake news and a lot of racial tension narrative around it,” he explains.

“Pull race out of it; what the right really should be doing — and I would consider myself one, conservative, Christian, went to school to be a pastor, love people, understand that Jesus died for the worst of the worst, including myself,” he continues, “The right as being principled people ought to be saying, and this is what I didn’t see, is that ‘This is a horrible situation.’”

“The facts don’t look good for Karmelo Anthony, according to what we’ve seen so far,” he says, “But he ought to be given the same affording that was afforded to Daniel Penny and Kyle Rittenhouse.”

“Because as you begin to erode the principle for anyone, you begin to erode it for everyone,” he adds.

‘BLM all over again’: Woman risks life exposing Karmelo Anthony defender Dominique Alexander



Sarah Fields is not only a Republican Texas delegate, army veteran, and mother, but she’s also the woman behind exposing Karmelo Anthony’s most prominent defender, Dominique Alexander.

Alexander has caught wind of Fields' investigation, as he’s begun holding up her social media posts at press conferences and pointing the finger at her.

“It started with me sharing the arrest report, which I find pretty wild, because I requested the arrest report through an open records request to Frisco PD,” Fields tells Jason Whitlock on “Jason Whitlock Harmony.”


“As soon as I received it, I read it, and I posted it. All I said was ‘arrest report for Karmelo Anthony,’ and it went viral, it got millions of views, and I got threats. My family was threatened, I was threatened, I was called a racist, I was called a bigot for sharing an arrest report, an official document,” she continues.

What ended up really getting under Alexander’s skin was when Fields discovered that his fraudulent organization has filed nothing through the IRS since 2020 — and that he has a lengthy history of criminal behavior.

“It appears like money laundering, is what it looks like, and I have challenged him multiple times to share financial statements, and it’s funny — he doesn’t respond to that,” she explains. “He has no problem saying that it’s disrespectful, and that I’m a liar, but he hasn’t dispelled any of the supposed lies.”

“He hasn’t defended himself and said, ‘Actually, here’s documentation. Here’s receipts.’ He’s done none of that. He just says that I’m disrespectful and that I’m lying about him,” she continues, noting that Alexander even blamed Fields for the appearance of victim Austin Metcalf’s father at the press conference.

And while hundreds of thousands of dollars have been raised through the Anthony family’s GiveSendGo account, Fields doesn’t believe that money has been obtained honestly.

“I truly believe that the family and Dominique Alexander are trying to cash in. I believe that they were dishonest with the people who were donating to the GiveSendGo, especially since once they reached over $400,000 on the GiveSendGo, they then magically changed the description to say, ‘Oh, this isn’t actually just for legal funds. This is to cover all expenses, including relocating,’” Fields says.

“This looks like Black Lives Matter all over again,” Whitlock comments. “Except there is no dead black man or boy. There’s a black man or boy that has committed murder, and it’s like they can turn any situation — whether you get killed or whether you do the killing — you can be the victim worthy of raising money off of and then funneling the money any direction you want to go.”

Karmelo Anthony reportedly moved to undisclosed location after court approval over 'alarming increase in death threats'



Karmelo Anthony — the Texas teen charged with murdering high school athlete Austin Metcalf earlier this month — has been moved to an undisclosed location due to an "alarming increase in death threats," KDFW-TV reported.

The Next Generation Action Network, a group advocating for Anthony, told the station the location switch occurred after court approval.

'It is both heartbreaking and infuriating to see the depths of hate and bigotry still alive and well in our society.'

Anthony has been on house arrest since his April 14 release from jail when a judge lowered his bond from $1 million to $250,000. Police arrested Anthony and charged him with first-degree murder after Metcalf was fatally stabbed at an April 2 track meet at Kuykendall Stadium in Frisco.

NGAN told the station in a news release that in addition to death threats, there has been "continued harassment and physical intimidation targeted at the family's home."

More from KDFW:

Some of the harassment includes people visiting the Anthony family home, loitering and taking photos of the property, false food deliveries, disturbing mailings, including Austin Metcalf's obituary, and people repeatedly circling the family home, taking photos and attempting to provoke fear and intimidation, the news release states.

Dominique Alexander, NGAN's president, said a "dangerous atmosphere ... has been created — an atmosphere fueled by organized hate, systemic racism, and intentional misinformation," the station said, citing the news release.

"It is both heartbreaking and infuriating to see the depths of hate and bigotry still alive and well in our society," Alexander added, according to KDFW. "No family should have to live under siege simply because they are demanding their constitutional rights. We will not be silent, and we will not back down. We are committed to doing whatever is necessary to protect this family and to ensure that justice is pursued without intimidation or fear."

Alexander made headlines last week when he called Jeff Metcalf — the father of the murder victim — "disrespectful" for showing up at a Thursday news conference for the Anthony family. After Dallas police were called to the news conference, Jeff Metcalf was seen departing the venue.

Alexander told those gathered at the news conference that Metcalf "was not invited," that "he knows that it's inappropriate to be near [the Anthony] family," and that his presence at the news conference "shows you all" his "character."

Metcalf told the New York Post on Saturday that Alexander and Anthony's parents at the news conference "should have pulled me up [to the front] and said, ‘We are so sorry. Our condolences.’ The only thing I would have said was, ‘Okay, can we pray together and show the world we’re united[?]'"

What's more, just minutes after Metcalf was kicked out of the news conference, Frisco police said they responded to a report of a gunshot at his home — but soon determined the call was an attempt at "swatting," which is a false call intended to cause harm through a police response.

'Protect White Americans' rally

NGAN said another reason Anthony was moved to an undisclosed location was because of a "Protect White Americans" rally held Saturday in Frisco, KDFW reported.

The rally took place in the parking lot of Kuykendall Stadium, where Metcalf was fatally stabbed, the station said. Jake Lang of Florida, charged in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, organized the rally, KDFW said.

The rally didn't make much of a splash and was sparsely attended, the station said. Police appeared to arrest two counterprotesters — one for allegedly pepper-spraying a rally attendee and the other for interfering in the counterprotester's arrest.

Lang said on X that he "broke into Kuykendall Stadium and got the first ever footage of Austin Metcalf's blood stained on the stadium floor," KDFW reported. Officials with the Frisco Independent School District said they filed trespassing charges against Lang for breaking into district property, the station reported, adding that Lang's video was from "the home side of the stadium. The incident occurred on the visitor side, which can be seen across the field when he turns the camera off himself."

In addition, video from the rally reportedly shows Lang speaking to Jeff Metcalf by phone and Metcalf telling Lang that he's "part of the f**king problem" and that Lang is "trying to create more race divide than bridging the gap." Lang is seen replying that Metcalf is exhibiting "white guilt."

On the other side of things, Karmelo Anthony's defenders have been going viral on social media, with one of them actually declaring that Metcalf "got exactly what he deserved — point blank, period."

Anything else?

Soon after the April 2 stabbing, the arresting officer said Anthony reportedly told him, "I was protecting myself," before the officer questioned him about the incident, WFAA-TV reported, citing the arrest affidavit.

Anthony also reportedly told the officer that Metcalf "put his hands on [him]," the station said, citing the affidavit, after which Anthony was handcuffed.

The arresting officer soon told a fellow officer arriving on the scene that he had the alleged suspect — and Anthony reportedly interjected, "I'm not alleged; I did it," WFAA reported.

A witness reportedly noted to police that Metcalf — who competed for Memorial High School — told Anthony he had to move from under his team's tent, the station said, citing the affidavit. With that Anthony opened his bag and reached inside, the witness told police, WFAA said.

"Touch me and see what happens," Anthony told Metcalf, the station added, citing a witness.

Metcalf reportedly touched Anthony, the witness told an officer, and Anthony told Metcalf to punch him and see what would happen, WFAA reported.

WFAA, citing the document, said Anthony while he was in the back seat of the vehicle also reportedly asked the officer if Metcalf was going to be OK. While being escorted to the squad car, Anthony asked an officer if his actions could be considered self-defense.

A GiveSendGo fund for Anthony sits at just over $500,000 as of Tuesday morning.

Anthony's father contended in an interview with the New York Post that “everyone has already made their assumptions about my son, but he’s not what they’re making him out to be." Anthony's father added to the paper that his son "was not the aggressor" and is "a good kid. He works two jobs. He’s an A student, has a 3.7 GPA."

Alexander during last week's news conference ripped the Frisco ISD, claiming that district officials intend to expel Anthony — a senior at Centennial High School — prior to his graduation.

Phase 2 of Karmelo Anthony PYSOP: Trial relocation



Jason Whitlock sums up Karmelo Anthony’s alleged fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf as follows: “A 17-year-old brought a knife to a high school event and stabbed someone over a typical teenage disagreement.”

Even though “this thing is so clear-cut,” the left is bent on using this atrocity to fuel a race war, and thus far, it’s working.

Some are trying to justify Anthony’s actions by saying Metcalf started it; Metcalf put his hands on Anthony; Metcalf called him the N-word.

But even if all three of those things are true, it still wouldn’t justify Anthony’s actions.

“I don't care if Austin Metcalf grabbed this dude's arm, grabbed his book pack,” says Jason. “I've been called the N-word by black people and white people throughout my life. Never grabbed a knife and stabbed anyone, never pulled a gun and shot anyone.”

“If you have that little self-control, if you're that easily triggered … you need to be on a reservation somewhere locked away from the rest of humanity and society that has more emotional control than that and doesn't buy into a culture that says any disrespect must be met with more disrespect,” he adds.

This "free Karmelo Anthony" “insanity” that we’re seeing, however, is “scripted insanity.” The whole ordeal, from the stories about Anthony’s family living a lavish lifestyle using the GiveSendGo funds to the support messages they’re receiving, is all part of a psyop that depends on stoking white fury.

The best thing white Americans can do is not play into it by adopting the same racial tactics.

Jason points to January 6 defendant Jake Lang as an example. While he respects Lang for “what he went through on January 6,” organizing a protest in Frisco with the slogan “protect white Americans” makes it clear that he doesn’t see “the big picture.”

A protest that “drums up more racial division” is exactly what they want.

“They want Charlottesville 2.0; they want January 6 2.0; they want some sort of race war, and they're going to send agitators to make sure that happens,” says Jason.

They need a racial conflict to ignite the next phase of their plan: relocating Anthony’s trial.

“The argument coming out of that will be we got to change venues — you can't have this trial in Collin County; you can't have this trial in Denton County. … We have to move this trial somewhere where we can get more black jurors on the jury,” predicts Jason.

“They want jury nullification; they want a mistrial; they want a hung jury. They know this kid is guilty, but they also know that black Americans have been so programmed, have been so brainwashed into anything that hurts white people is good for black people,” he explains.

This is why “they're happy that Jake Lang is leading a 'protect white Americans' rally in Frisco, Texas.”

Career criminal representing Karmelo Anthony sows chaos, blatantly disrespects victim's father



An activist from Next Generation Action Network is not only representing accused teen killer Karmelo Anthony but has a lengthy rap sheet of his own.

Minister Dominique Alexander, the appointed spokesperson for the alleged teen murderer, has been convicted on child abuse charges and allegations of domestic violence, but served almost zero prison time.

While on probation, Alexander was indicted on felony forgery charges, then in 2017 on felony theft charges of property between $2,500 and $30,000.

“The guy’s been convicted of several crimes,” Jason Whitlock of “Fearless” comments. “He’s reinvented himself as some sort of black activist. That’s the first sign that hey, there’s a problem here. A career criminal is the face of, ‘Hey, I’m fighting for justice for Karmelo Anthony and his family.’”


“They’re looking for justice for Karmelo Anthony,” Whitlock continues. “Who would take on that job? ‘We gotta get justice for the guy that [allegedly] stabbed and killed a 17-year-old.’ Who would do that? And why?”

And the latest press conference for Anthony’s family, led by Alexander, revealed Alexander’s true colors when Jeff Metcalf, the father of the slain teenager Austin Metcalf, showed up at the press conference himself.

“The father being at this press conference … is a disrespect to the dignity of his son,” said Alexander.

“That was disrespectful and just shows you all the character — he was not invited, he knows that it’s inappropriate to be near this family, but he did it,” the Next Generation Action Network president added.

“So this press conference that went 30 minutes yesterday started out with Dominique Alexander, the career criminal, the baby Al Sharpton of Texas. Austin Metcalf’s father, who came to the press conference. He wanted to hear what Karmelo Anthony and his family and their spokesman had to say,” Whitlock says.

“And they booted Austin Metcalf’s dad out of the press conference, and then Dominique Alexander, the man with virtually no command of the English language, took a dump on Austin Metcalf’s father,” he continues, adding, “Who’s the real victim here?”

How No-Consequence Schooling Turns Kids Like Karmelo Anthony Into Killers

We lower expectations, excuse bad behavior, and pretend that endless second chances build character. But they don’t.
