  • Of course leftist anger motivated Charlie Kirk’s (alleged) assassin

    Alex Berenson - Sep 17th 2025 2:56pm EDT

    Charlie Kirk deserved better. In the chaos after his assassination, the left pretended his killer was a right-wing gun nut – while the antisemitic right claimed Kirk had somehow run afoul of a Zionist cabal. Neither theory made a lick of sense. Kirk supported President Trump fervently. And at a time when too many top […]

  • Should the Washington Post have fired opinion writer Karen Attiah for her awful posts after Charlie Kirk’s assassination?

    Alex Berenson - Sep 16th 2025 3:28pm EDT

    Yesterday, the Washington Post opinion writer Karen Attiah said she’d been fired for posts she’d made in response to the killing of Charlie Kirk. My first thought was: Firing Attiah sounds wrong. It sounds like cancel culture. Like when the New York Times forced out editor James Bennet in 2020 because he published an opinion […]

  • Unreported Truths readers are the best

    Alex Berenson - Sep 15th 2025 11:33am EDT

    Hoping to have a piece out about a big flu vaccine trial later today. You won’t BELIEVE what it says! Or maybe you will… But first a couple quick notes on this Monday morning. 1: THANK YOU! Your response to my plea Saturday to subscribe to Unreported Truths and stand for free speech was inspiring. […]

  • A thank-you, a warning, and a plea

    Alex Berenson - Sep 13th 2025 11:05am EDT

    I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t crossed my mind. This week, a lot of you emailed me to tell me, be careful. It’s getting dicey out there. I appreciate the concern. Truly. My answer: jokes about our attack chihuahua, or how I’ve annoyed people on both sides, so everyone assumes someone else will […]

  • On the assassination of Charlie Kirk – and UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and very nearly Donald Trump himself

    Alex Berenson - Sep 12th 2025 7:51pm EDT

    (Second of two parts; Part 1 is here) The legacy media claims Charlie Kirk’s killing is part of a decade-long bipartisan wave of political violence. The legacy media is wrong. This assassination wave began last year – and it has come from the left, not the right. Yes, lawmakers on both sides have been hurt […]

  • Urgent/breaking: Police have arrested Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin

    Alex Berenson - Sep 12th 2025 11:40am EDT

    Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old Utah man, has been arrested for the shooting of Charlie Kirk, law enforcement and Utah governor Spencer Cox said this morning. Last night, Robinson’s family told a friend Robinson had confessed to killing Kirk, Cox said at a news conference this morning. The confession came after Robinson’s father recognized him from […]

  • On the assassination of Charlie Kirk, and what it means for us all

    Alex Berenson - Sep 11th 2025 9:14pm EDT

    (Part 1) Want to find a society’s power center? Follow an assassin’s bullet. For decades, the left used its control of the legacy media, Hollywood, and academia to decide not just what issues but even what facts could be discussed. It deemed those it finds ideologically uncomfortable to be outside the pale. The original sin […]

  • URGENT: Conservative activist Charlie Kirk has been shot

    Alex Berenson - Sep 10th 2025 3:25pm EDT

    He was speaking today at an event at Utah Valley University. The video shows him hit either in the upper chest or neck and blood gushing from the wound as he immediately stops speaking. Nothing yet has been reported about the shooter, but posts on X show an older white man in custody. Please put […]

  • Quick housekeeping note: we’ve ordered the Founding Member T-shirts.

    Alex Berenson - Sep 9th 2025 3:00pm EDT

    Also, we semi-accidentally ordered a few too many… which means if you are a founding member (the $300/year level on Substack) you can still get one, and if you are not, you can still upgrade here to get one. We aren’t ordering more, though – when they’re gone, they’re gone! — (Last chance to dance!) […]

  • On black violence, woke lies, and right-wing rage

    Alex Berenson - Sep 9th 2025 11:09am EDT

    You’ve seen the photo. A man stands behind a woman, his arms raised in a frenzy. She sits, focused on her phone, oblivious to the danger behind her. He is about to slash her neck and leave her to bleed to death. The man is black. The woman is white. And their races are no […]

  • Free speech no longer exists in Germany

    Alex Berenson - Sep 6th 2025 4:15pm EDT

    Americans have no idea how bad the European war on free speech has become. Last week, after writing about the insane arrest of Irish comedian Graham Linehan for violating British speech laws, I asked the Substacker who goes by the name Eugyppius for his take on the situation in Germany. As many of you know, […]

  • Why are Congress, the media, and health bureaucrats so desperate to see Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fail?

    Alex Berenson - Sep 5th 2025 4:24pm EDT

    The American healthcare system is a disaster, and it’s getting worse. That truth is inarguable. With 4 percent of the world’s people, the United States spends almost as much on medicine as every other country combined1. Yet our life expectancy badly trails other wealthy countries2, and the gap is growing. The signal event of American […]

  • A piece too good not to share (on why the EU-US trade deal was so YUGELY bad for Europe)

    Alex Berenson - Sep 5th 2025 12:17pm EDT

    I’m working on my own big-think piece about why everyone in Congress and the media hates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. so much when all he’s done is make a few minor changes to the mRNA jab schedule. (It’s not quite why you think.) But first I had to give you this from Eugyppius, a wise […]

  • Substack comes of age

    Alex Berenson - Sep 4th 2025 12:45pm EDT

    Last night, the news broke that Paramount Skydance — which owns CBS — is on the verge of buying the Free Press for up to $200 million. As you may know, Bari Weiss started the Free Press on Substack after quitting the New York Times in 2020. Since then, she has turned it into a […]

  • Free speech no longer exists in Britain

    Alex Berenson - Sep 3rd 2025 12:46pm EDT

    You can be forgiven for wondering if this story is fake. It isn’t. On Monday, an Irish comedian named Graham Linehan was returning to Britain from the United States when five police officers arrested him at Heathrow Airport. His crime: three posts on X about transgenderism from April. In one, Linehan wrote that a woman […]

  • URGENT: The Covid spike protein produced by mRNA jabs can activate reservoirs of HIV in infected people, new research shows

    Alex Berenson - Sep 2nd 2025 2:46pm EDT

    The Covid spike protein from mRNA Covid jabs can cause dormant HIV-infected cells to become active, scientists found in a pre-print posted last month. The research does not prove people with HIV who received mRNA shots are at higher risk for developing full-blown AIDS, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. But it provides yet more evidence of […]

  • URGENT: President Trump demands a reckoning on the Covid mRNA shots

    Alex Berenson - Sep 1st 2025 1:34pm EDT

    This morning, President Trump demanded Pfizer and other mRNA vaccine companies prove the Covid jabs worked as they claimed. The Covid jab makers “show me GREAT numbers and results, but they don’t seem to be showing them to many others,” he wrote in a post on his Truth Social network. “I want them to show […]

  • Team UT: the deadline for “Founding Member” T-shirts is TODAY

    Alex Berenson - Aug 25th 2025 11:30am EDT

    In June, I promised founding members “UTFM shirts.” Lucky me, I didn’t set a deadline. But the non-deadline has now arrived. Precisely at midnight1, the logistics coordinator and I are ordering T-shirts. But this is a one-time only offer, people.2 Once it’s gone, it’s gone. And this is the last email I’m sending on it.

  • Why does the left keep humiliating itself?

    Alex Berenson - Aug 24th 2025 5:28pm EDT

    Culture me harder, daddy. That seems to be the Democratic party motto these days. The left keeps finding exciting new ways to show how out-of-touch it has become with average Americans — particularly men. Voters are returning the favor. — A quick and hopefully amusing Sunday read for your pleasure. But first, two quick housekeeping […]

  • Okay, this is your last chance to get a free* Founding Member T-shirt

    Alex Berenson - Aug 22nd 2025 9:54am EDT

    To founding members (and soon-to-be founding members) – Back in June, I decided to offer you a free “UTFM” T-shirt available to you only.1 Turned out a lot of you wanted it – and I’ve been pretty busy this summer (three days playing poker in Las Vegas was as close as I got to a […]
