Tax relief advocates, real solutions for real people. If you want to see a masterclass in shameless, truly evil propaganda, talking about jaw-dropping deception, even more flagrant than the George Floyd narrative that has no purpose other than to cause a race war, then put on your detective hat and look no further than the multiple fake lynching stories that are now springing up out of nowhere, just in time, of course, for the midterms. There is a concerted effort to manufacture the idea that white people in America today are running around murdering blacks and hanging them from trees. According to the media and the left, there is a full-on lynching epidemic happening in our country right now in the year 2026

Now the problem with this claim is that, of course, it's entirely and obviously untrue. These are comically absurd lies that have no basis in reality whatsoever. And they fall apart after about three and a half seconds of investigation. Yet they're being repeated by media outlets, as well as influencers like Miss Rachel, who reaches millions of children with parents stupid enough to let them watch the kind of weird brain rot slop that Miss Rachel churns out with factory-like efficiency. Watch.

Please listen to the black community. Black people don't hang themselves from trees. There's been at least seven black people found hanging from trees. Black people being lynched, Haitian people having to wear ankle monitors, getting TPS taken away, kids in detention centers where the water makes them sick, where the medical neglect is abused.

Well, meanwhile, back in reality, no black person has been lynched in this country at any time this century.

There has not been a single case, not one. In fact, if you are 40 years old or younger, there has not been an anti-black lynching in your entire lifetime. If you're 50 years old, there's been maybe one in your lifetime, and it happened when you were in kindergarten.

These psychotic narratives, which will debunk piece by piece in a second, are part of a much larger derangement that's taken hold among a certain political demographic in this country, and it's getting impossible to ignore. One of the most prominent DEI hires of all time, and the New York Times' fabulous Nicole Hannah Jones, who's black, has just gone public and admitted that she sent her daughter to a failing, mostly black school because she was under the impression that it would be racist to send her daughter to a privileged, high-functioning good school with a lot of white people. Jones apparently believed that if she sent her daughter to a subpar black school, everything would be okay because all of the students are really blank slates, and all they need is some motivated, committed educators to help them realize their infinite potential. And surprise, surprise, after a few years, her daughter realized that as a result of her mother's ideology, her education has been an enormous waste of time. Reality, once again, crashed into a leftist like a freight train. There's a five million word, approximately, New York Times article about this whole saga with Jones' daughter. And still, none of these people are learning any lessons from it. Before we get into Nicole Hannah Jones and what her pathetic and frankly disturbing op-ed tells us about DEI and the left in general, let's investigate a couple of these purported lynchings. And we'll start with the untimely death of 29-year-old Tasia Fortune, who's a black woman in Mississippi who was found hanging from a tree in the first week of August of this year. Now, here's how the Associated Press, probably the biggest news organization on the planet, covered this woman's death. Watch.

In North Carolina, police are investigating the August 21st death of 38-year-old Demetrius Eugene Fleming. In February, police in Cobb County, Georgia, found the body of 21-year-old Kyle Basinga in a park. While investigators said there was no indication of foul play, Cobb County Commission Chairwoman Lisa Cupid said Basinga's death caused many to think about the days of slavery and of Jim Crow. The September 2025 death of 21-year-old black student Trey Reed at Mississippi's Delta State University was ruled a suicide, as was that of 39-year-old DeNorris Richardson in September 2024 in Alabama's Colbert County. Richardson's wife has said she does not believe he killed himself. More than 4,400 lynchings occurred in the US between Reconstruction and World War II, according to the Alabama-based Equal Justice Initiative. Almost 60 members of Congress signed a letter demanding that the Justice Department investigate the hanging deaths of black individuals and enforce the 2022 Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act, which made lynching a federal hate crime. The Justice Department confirmed it received the letter, but has not responded, according to Representative Ayanna Presley's office.
