Virginia Democrats have taken up the task of defending attorney general candidate Jay Jones after newly surfaced text messages show Jones fantasizing about murdering Republicans and their children.

Sean “Diddy” Combs — mogul, producer, and architect of a billion-dollar brand — was sentenced Friday to more than four years in federal prison for his despicable crimes against women. The sentence won’t shatter the glossy mythology he’s sold for decades. The headlines will obsess over the punishment and whether justice was done. But the deeper story is the culture he built — and that millions of Americans continue to bankroll.
Let’s stop pretending: No other major American music genre has a criminal record like rap. This isn’t a bad apple. It’s a poisoned orchard.
No other genre has turned crime, misogyny, and hatred for order into cultural virtues.
Tay-K was convicted of murder in 2019 and again in 2020 for a separate shooting. He’s serving 55 years. South Park Mexican is doing 45 years for child sexual assault. C-Murder? Life for killing a teenager. Big Lurch is doing life for murder and cannibalism. B.G. just got out after 14 years for weapons and witness tampering. Chris Brown — who still charts — pled guilty to felony assault of Rihanna and keeps finding trouble. Shyne served nearly a decade for a nightclub shooting that Diddy himself may have committed. Kodak Black, Max B, Crip Mac, Flesh-N-Bone, Big Tray Deee — all convicted felons.
That’s not some obscure playlist. That’s the soundtrack.
Try compiling a similar rap sheet for classical violinists, country balladeers, or pop crooners. Even rock, infamous for its drug excesses, never reached this level of violence or degradation.
Still think this is just about “personal behavior”? Listen closer.
Even when not committing crimes, many hip-hop “artists” glorify them. Anti-police, anti-woman, anti-civilization — these aren’t exceptions but industry standards. “F**k the police” wasn’t a phase. It was a forecast. “Shoot a cop, that’s my solution” isn’t satire. It’s strategy.
You don’t have to dig to find chart-toppers dripping with misogyny, death threats, and celebrations of drug-dealing and street violence. This isn’t fringe content. They’re topping the Billboard charts.
In what other industry could someone openly brag about pimping women, selling narcotics, or “sliding on ops” and still land Super Bowl halftime shows, Sprite deals, and White House invitations?

Defenders call it “storytelling,” “street realism,” or “art.” But these aren’t neutral observations. They’re recruitment ads for a culture of moral rot. Many rappers don’t just depict criminality — they embody it, and their fans reward them for it.
Every stream, download, and ticket sale is a vote for decadence — a few more dollars for the next defense attorney, a little more validation for the notion that responsibility is oppression and chaos is authenticity.
Even academics have noticed. Law journals have dissected the way hip-hop glorifies violence while its corporate enablers polish the packaging. The same elites who decry “toxic masculinity” will nod along to lyrics calling women “bitches” and “hoes.” The same corporations that preach “inclusion” will bankroll artists who sneer at civilization. The same politicians pushing gun control will campaign beside men who made fortunes romanticizing drive-bys.
Yes, hip-hop has artistic power. It grew from hardship and gave voice to the voiceless. But no other genre has turned crime, misogyny, and hatred for order into cultural virtues.
There’s a difference between reflecting reality and selling it — between giving voice to pain and turning pain into product. Today’s rap industry isn’t holding up a mirror to society. It’s pointing a gun at it.
The Diddy sentencing should be a wake-up call. It isn’t just a reckoning for one man. It’s a moment of clarity for a culture that has lost its moral compass.
The question isn’t only who committed the crime. It’s who bought the album.
Data Doesn’t Lie: Political Violence Is An Overwhelmingly Left-Wing Problem

It’s not revenge we’re after; it’s a reckoning.Second chances kill innocents
Republicans might finally take me seriously after years of warning: America suffers not from mass incarceration, but from mass under-incarceration. The system needs tougher sentences, not softer ones.
The brutal murder of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, allegedly at the hands of career criminal Decarlos Brown Jr. on a Charlotte commuter train, didn’t reveal anything new. It shocked the nation precisely because it put on camera what has become routine in our cities since the bipartisan “criminal justice reform” wave dismantled Reagan-era tough-on-crime policies.
Legislators will have a choice when they reconvene: Pass strong reforms like these or watch more innocent people die.
For every man like Brown who slipped through the cracks, at least 10 more walk free when they should be locked up for life.
Brown had been arrested 14 times since 2007. His record included assault, felony firearms possession, robbery, and larceny. He didn’t see the inside of a prison until 2014, when an armed robbery conviction earned him a mere four years. He racked up more arrests after his release in 2020, but neither prison nor psychiatric commitment followed. The justice system looked the other way.
The result was predictable. Brown’s obvious mental instability made him even more dangerous than an ordinary criminal. Yet over the last 15 years, Republicans and Democrats alike embraced “reform” that made second chances for the violent and insane a top priority. They weakened sentencing, gutted mandatory minimums, downgraded juvenile crimes, eased up on drugs and vagrancy, and abandoned broken-windows policing. Hard-won gains against crime and homelessness evaporated.
The final insult: Brown was last released on cashless bail by North Carolina Magistrate Judge Teresa Stokes, allegedly affiliated with a pro-criminal “second chances” group. But violent offenders don’t just get second chances. They get third, fourth, and 15th chances. Most criminals never even face charges. Prosecutors downgrade cases. Convicts skate on early release. The cycle spins on.
Look at the numbers. In 2024, the FBI’s incident-based reporting system logged over 12.2 million crimes. Strip away drug and gun cases, and the picture remains grim: 2.4 million violent crimes with no arrest. Another 1.25 million serious property crimes — arson, burglary, motor vehicle theft — with no arrest. Every year, more than a million offenders escape justice. Meanwhile, the nation’s prison and jail population sits at roughly 1.9 million.
Even when police make arrests, punishment rarely follows. In 2021, only 15,604 people went to prison for robbery despite 121,000 reported incidents. Just 4,894 went away for car theft out of 550,000 cases. Even homicide convictions lag far behind — just 6,081 murderers entered prison against more than 15,000 killings.
This isn’t a statistical fluke. It’s a system that fails to punish violent crime year after year.

So what needs to change? Here’s a checklist every state legislature should adopt in the next session:
- Ban public encampments on streets, sidewalks, and public property; allow lawsuits against localities that fail to enforce.
- Elevate porch piracy penalties, following Florida’s lead.
- Impose stiff punishments for organized retail theft and flash mobs.
- Tighten “truth-in-sentencing” laws to ensure violent offenders serve their full terms.
- Pass anti-gang statutes that cross county lines, fund prosecutions, and mandate enhanced sentences for gang-related crimes.
- Let prosecutors, not judges, decide whether to try violent juveniles as adults.
- Set mandatory minimums for carjackings, especially for repeat offenders.
- Impose harsh sentences on felons caught with firearms, and harsher still when they use them.
- Require parole violators to finish their sentences.
- Hold repeat offenders without bond; revoke pretrial release when new crimes are committed.
- Fund prosecutors’ offices to clear the backlog of violent felony cases.
- Strengthen “three strikes” laws to eliminate loopholes.
- Apply the death penalty to fentanyl traffickers.
- Mandate quarterly public reporting of judges’ sentencing records in a searchable database.
- Criminalize squatting and streamline removal.
Legislators will have a choice when they reconvene: Pass strong reforms like these or watch more innocent people die.
Social media outrage won’t fix this crisis. Neither will empty calls for “accountability.” As Iryna’s grieving family warned, “This could have been anyone riding the light rail that night.”
That’s the truth — and unless lawmakers act, it will be the truth again tomorrow.
How a butt-dialed voicemail may have exposed chilling cover-up of missing flight attendant's murder
An American Airlines flight attendant went missing, and her body has yet to be found. However, authorities say a Texas woman may have implicated herself and her friend after an accidental butt-dial phone call left behind a damning voicemail.
Rana Nofal Soluri — a 47-year-old flight attendant from Fort Worth — was reported missing on June 11.
'It's been torture.'
Soluri had been out of work since late March while recovering from minor surgery, the New York Post reported. Her co-workers at Envoy Air — an American Airlines subsidiary — reported Soluri missing after they purportedly were unable to contact her.
During a June 10 welfare check, police questioned 66-year-old Dennis William Day — Soluri’s roommate. According to the Post, Day told investigators that Soluri had been a longtime friend and had been living with him in Fort Worth but added he had not seen her for three months.
On June 23, police conducted a search of Day's property and interviewed him again.
Citing an affidavit, NBC News reported that investigators also looked at surveillance video from the property.
Police said the surveillance video shows Day dragging "what appears to be a lifeless body from the home into the backyard" on March 21.
Coincidentally, detectives secured a search warrant for Soluri's cell phone records, which reportedly show that the last call she made was on March 21, according to People magazine.
Day was arrested and booked into the Tarrant County Jail on June 26, according to jail records. Day was charged with murder and is being detained on a $200,000 bond.
On Aug. 26, police arrested a second suspect — 62-year-old Joni Thomas. She was charged with tampering with evidence. She has since been released on bond.
According to a criminal complaint obtained by KXAS-TV, Day convinced Thomas to let him use her pickup truck to transport Soluri's body, and Thomas assisted Day in throwing the corpse off a bridge.
Thomas initially told investigators that she didn't allow Day to use her truck, according to police. However, Thomas allegedly changed her story later.
Citing the arrest warrant, KXAS reported that investigators said Thomas later said Day did use her truck and that she was with him but didn't know what was going on. In addition, it's alleged that Thomas said she thought Day had stopped on the bridge to urinate, and then she fell asleep in the passenger seat, waking up in Day's driveway.
However, Day allegedly admitted to authorities that he borrowed Thomas' truck to dispose of a body.
According to the arrest warrant, police say cell phone records show Thomas drove to Day's house after he allegedly killed Soluri, and both Thomas and Day left their phones at his house before driving to Bowie.
"This is a clear effort by both [Day] and [Thomas] to deceive law enforcement and make it appear like they never left [Day’s] house in Fort Worth, Texas, when they were dumping [Nofal’s] body in Bowie, TX," police said in the warrant, according to KXAS.
Then, investigators discovered an accidental voicemail that could incriminate Day and spell trouble for Thomas.
According to the arrest warrant, a male and female can be heard speaking in the voicemail left on Thomas' cell phone. The pair reportedly were talking about lifting something heavy.
A male can be heard saying, "Hey ... help me," "Make sure the lid's on," and "I'm sorry I got you messed up in this."
Citing the arrest warrant, the New York Post reported that Day confessed to getting into an argument with Soluri after she allegedly recorded video of him acting irate and threatened to call 911. Day claimed he "snapped" and reacted by strangling his roommate with his bare hands, according to police.
The New York Post reported that police said he confessed to stuffing Soluri's body into a black trash bin and dumping it off a bridge in the town of Bowie — roughly 70 miles north of Fort Worth.
The Post added that despite searches at multiple bridges in Bowie, Soluri’s body has not been recovered — and officials fear flooding may have pushed the body downstream.
Soluri’s sister, Nez, told KXAS that her family has been heartbroken: “It’s been torture. Every other day, I keep dreaming or wishing ... maybe she bumped her head, had amnesia — something.”
