Episode Overview Dive into one of Northern Virginia's most chilling urban legends: the Bunnyman of Clifton.

Conley's research (“The Bunny Man Unmasked”) and Fairfax County's archived investigation . •Modern Interpretations: How the Bunnyman lives on in pop culture and podcasts—from One Strange Thing to The Curse of Bunnyman—each adding layers to the myth .   Resources & Credit Lines •Primary sources: Newspaper reports from 1970 editions like Fort Lauderdale News, The Lowell Sun, Miami Herald . •Research archives: Fairfax County historian‑archivist Brian A.

“I told you so starts here” Over the past 200 days (the first 200 of the second Trump term) many details have come to light that confirmed things that for years had been dismissed as “conspiracy theories.” Just this week, details that show that the FBI, under Trump's own AG, Jeff Sessions, had whistleblower testimony that they failed to follow up on regarding classified document leaks from then-Congressman Adam Schiff that were leaked to trigger embarrassing investigations into the President in time to impact the 2018 mid-term elections. Also this week, the Capitol Police Chief finally spoke out and confirmed that the President had asked for the National Guard be deployed to the Capitol building on January third. Three days before the deadly riots. Stories like this come from courageous independent investigative reporters like John Soloman at ‘justthenews.com' our guest, Walter Curt of ‘WCdispatch.com' who shares with us two stories. The first is of two teenage girls who allege that they were taken to get abortions by Fairfax County school officials without alerting their parents. Just now, we are learning that Governor Youngkin has announced that he is “directing the Virginia State police bureau of criminal investigation to open a full criminal investigation.” The second regards a group of former US intelligence officers that call themselves “the Steady State” who have endorsed their former co-worker in the intelligence field, Abigail Spanberger, for Virginia Governor.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITWhen boundaries get crossed and common sense goes out the window, you know you're in for a wild news roundup. Today we're diving into three stories that'll have you questioning what's happening in our society.First up, a deeply troubling report from Virginia where Fairfax County Public Schools is investigating claims that high school staff arranged and even paid for student abortions without parental knowledge or consent. This 2021 incident raises serious questions about school authority, parental rights, and the policies that create dangerous gray areas in student health decisions. While the school district claims ignorance, their policy language leaves room for concerning interpretations about when parents should be informed of major medical decisions involving their children.We also tackle the recurring phenomenon of inappropriate fan behavior at WNBA games, where an 18-year-old was arrested for throwing a sex toy that struck a child and her uncle during a game. Beyond the legal consequences, we explore why this type of disrespect toward women's sports continues and why it shouldn't be dismissed as harmless humor. Female athletes deserve the same professional respect afforded to men's sports, and the presence of families at these events makes such behavior particularly inappropriate.The final story might be the most bizarre – a coworker filed an HR complaint against a bride-to-be for not being invited to her wedding, claiming "exclusivity" and a "hostile work environment." This absurd misapplication of workplace policies shows how concepts like inclusivity can be weaponized in completely inappropriate contexts. Have you experienced similar boundary violations?

Senate Democrats are taking their fight against controversial higher-ed appointments to court. Michael Pope was in a Fairfax County courtroom and has more on the arguments.

On February 24, 2023, in an upscale Herndon, Fairfax County, Virginia neighborhood, 37‑year‑old pediatric nurse Christine Banfield was found stabbed to death inside her own home. Nearby lay the body of Joseph “Joe” Ryan, 39, fatally shot. The Banfields' live‑in au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, reported the scene via a cryptic 911 call: “A friend of hers was hurt.” Christine later died at the hospital.Initially described by authorities as a scenario of self‑defense against an alleged intruder who had stabbed Christine, the case quickly took a darker turn. Investigators discovered Christine was the victim of a meticulously planned double homicide.

This week Nora and Craig are joined by Ryland Chapman, Firefighter/EMT in Fairfax County, Virginia and one of Craig's closest friends since their high school days.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, Democrats and the media are at it again, supporting violent riots, arson, and attacks on law enforcement in California, while labeling President Trump as authoritarian. A coalition of illegal aliens, Islamists, and Marxists are burning American flags, engaging in violence, and demanding to stay in America while causing this chaos.  Trump's deployment of the National Guard and Marines to address these riots is appropriate and lawful – Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, and George H. Bush all used military forces in crises. These are not mostly peaceful protests, it's totally violent. These attacks were on federal law enforcement officers. Federal prosecution for assaults on federal officers is supported by 18 USC Section 111. Democrats will never clean up this mess because they created it - they want illegal aliens and Marxists here. That creates chaos and violence and destroys our governing system so they can fundamentally transform it. Also, Sen Tom Cotton calls in and defends Trump's use of federal authority to address the L.A. riots. Trump is acting within his legal rights to federalize the National Guard when local authorities, such as Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass, fail to control violence involving arson, looting, and attacks by illegal aliens.  Cotton criticizes Democrats and the media for portraying Trump's actions as authoritarian while ignoring the lawlessness and supporting the rioters' political causes.  He also addressed Iran's rejection of a nuclear proposal from Trump. The offer was generous, allowing Iran access to low-enriched uranium for civilian nuclear power, similar to what other countries receive. However, Iran's refusal suggests their true intent is to develop nuclear weapons, as enriching uranium to any level could lead to weapons-grade material. Later, a mural at Falafel Inc. in Fairfax County, Virginia is allegedly glorifying violent extremism and promoting anti-American symbolism.  The artwork in the restaurant depicts a man in a keffiyeh, rowing toward the U.S. Capitol with a two-finger “victory” salute and a Palestinian flag amid rubble.

Dave Crance: Libertarian Candidate for Virginia House of Delegates Dave Crance is a dedicated Libertarian and community leader running for the Virginia House of Delegates in District 13, encompassing Falls Church and parts of Fairfax County. A resident of the area for over 25 years, Crance has deep roots in Northern Virginia, where he lives with his wife, Suman, and their children. He is active in the local Chamber of Commerce serving on its Board, the American legion and VFW where he serves in the roll of Chaplain, and has coached youth sports in multiple local leagues. His commitment to individual liberty, limited government, and community service defines his campaign and Libertarian philosophy. Crance's journey to libertarianism is grounded in his belief in self-ownership, private property rights, and the non-aggression principle—core tenets of the Libertarian Party. He advocates for a government that is as limited and localized as possible, prioritizing individual freedoms over the influence of special interests, corporations, or national political parties. Crance has stated, “One of the few things all libertarians agree on is that in a perfect world there would be no need for Government at all, but as such a world doesn't exist, Government should remain as limited and localized as possible belonging to the people.” His platform emphasizes lowering taxes, protecting local institutions, such as school boards and councils from overreach by state or national politics, ensuring that decisions about education and community matters remain non partisan and in the hands of local residents.
