Emerging Details About the Murder of Philly Reporter Josh Kruger Make for a Paradox

[Ed. Note: When this story first broke, I posted it with an editor’s note saying, “There’s no sign of forced entry, and the victim was shot 7 times in what wasn’t an apparent robbery… So, rather than immediately blaming leftist politics, maybe start looking for a deranged ex, or a jilted business partner.” … Now that we’ve had 9 days to let all the facts come to light, it turns out that Josh Kruger was (allegedly) a pedophile sleeping with underage boys, and paying them with dangerous addictive drugs, then blackmailing them with revenge porn. It would seem to me that the “ex” wasn’t “deranged” after all… Simply a child victim dealing with a dangerous child perpetrator. Welcome to the American left. I don’t think we lost anyone important to humanity.]

As if the Democrat’s flamboyant plaudits for men like Ed Buck, Harvey Milk, and Scott Wiener didn’t tell you enough about what the contemporary party has become, and the character of the people who champion its causes, now we can seemingly add Josh Kruger to the mix.

If you recall, Kruger was the journalist recently murdered in Philadelphia, a case which drew national attention; he self-identified as HIV+, frequently wrote about “LGBTQ+ issues” and his own “experiences with homelessness and addiction,” and his X feed relentlessly mocked Republican and conservative Americans as immoral and troglodytic.
