The Patriot Post® · 5 Transgender Crimes You Never Heard About
By Ben Johnson1
A famous rule dictates local media coverage: “If it bleeds, it leads.” But the legacy media appear to have a corollary: “If they’re trans, they’re banned.” The national media have reported numerous recent crimes — ranging from attempted bombings and assassination attempts to cold-blooded murder — but concealed the LGBTQ motivation of their perpetrators. A threat of radical LGBTQ advocacy runs through these five crimes.
1. Trans-Identifying Man Wanted to Kill ‘Nazi’ Members of Trump Administration, Speaker Mike Johnson
On January 26, a suspect surrendered to Capitol Police in Washington, D.C. The 24-year-old confessed to driving from Massachusetts with a knife and several Molotov cocktails, intent to murder Trump administration officials and burn down a conservative think tank.
The suspect claimed to have been diagnosed with a fatal heart defect and wanted to die in a blaze of glory by killing Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.), and possibly burning down the Heritage Foundation.
In the confession, police say the accused calmly assumed these acts of domestic terrorism would require murdering “at least” three police officers. The would-be shooter hoped to make a statement and was inspired by Luigi Mangione2, who murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on December 4.
The scant media coverage accorded to the plot produced headlines3 such as “Woman arrested with Molotov cocktail outside US Capitol” and4 “South Deerfield woman detained following arrest at Capitol.”
But the woman, “Riley Jane English,” was born Ryan Michael English, and merely identifies as transgender5.
The transgender-identifying suspect spoke of murdering conservative Republicans who oppose the LGBTQ agenda in quasi-religious terms. “I felt like I was on a mission,” English told3 police. “Maybe I told myself to have faith and just see where this goes and I had been thinking about this for a while because of Luigi Mangione.” (Bessent also identifies as LGBTQ and is legally married6 to a man.)
Police found a confession note7 in the man’s pocket that read: “You must understand I can feel myself dying slowly [because] of my heart. This is terrible, but I can’t do nothing while Nazis kill my sisters. I love you. This is awful. I’m so sorry.”
The “Nazis” reference may explain at least one name on the list: Democrats falsely linked two of Hegseth’s tattoos — a Jerusalem Cross8 and the phrase “Deus Vult9” — to “white supremacy10.” And, of course, Kamala Harris spent $1 billion in a presidential campaign centering on portraying President Donald Trump as a fascist11, an epithet that may have inspired12 one or more of last summer’s assassination attempts13 against the 47th president.
2. Couple Sentenced for Attempted Bombing of a Pro-Life Speaker’s Lecture on Gender Sanity
The second crime hits close to home: On April 18, 2023, my former colleague Michael Knowles of The Daily Wire went to the University of Pittsburgh to debate14 against libertarian Brad Palumbo on whether the law should set limits on transgenderism. Even questioning extreme gender ideology proved too much for two anarchist members of Antifa, Brian “Peppy” DiPippa and his wife, Krystal Martinez-DiPippa. The couple dropped smoke bombs around those waiting to enter, then threw a homemade explosive device at police.
A female police sergeant with the university police force swatted the explosive, which went off. She sustained leg burns, hearing loss, and a back injury so severe it required surgery involving fusion and a cadaver disc.
“Brian DiPippa is a homegrown terrorist who had every intention of hurting someone that day,” the officer, known as T.H. in court documents, told15 the judge. “I will never be the same.”
The pair entered a guilty plea: Krystal to obstructing law enforcement, and Brian to obstruction and conspiracy. On January 616, U.S. District Judge J. Nicholas Ranjan (a Trump appointee) sentenced Brian, 37, to five years in prison and Krystal, 42, to three years of probation17. The Torch Antifa Network claimed the DiPippas as members. While the Biden-Harris administration spent the last four years obsessing over “white supremacist” terrorism, Antifa terrorists targeted those with the temerity to question the Left’s faith-based view of gender — a view rejected by the vast majority of Americans.
Did you hear about left-wing domestic terrorists being sentenced to prison? Did you hear about the bombing at all?
Despite the extent of the injuries, CBS News downplayed18 their actions as throwing “smoke bombs and a firework.” The New York Times buried19 the extent of the officer’s injuries in the fifth paragraph.
That’s better than NBC20, ABC21, Reuters22, The Wall Street Journal23, and The Washington Post24, which ignored the story altogether.
3. Transgender-Identified Killer Killed ICE Agent: Reports
On Thursday, a Vermont jury indicted25 Teresa Youngblut for two felony26 weapons charges after the murder of a Border Patrol agent near the U.S. border with Canada. Once again, the headlines largely ignore the fact that the suspect identifies as transgender and appears to be part of a bizarre, violent, transgender cult.
Individuals at a Vermont hotel reported two members of the cult, known as the “Zizians,” for such suspicious behavior as wearing tactical clothing and brandishing a gun. The pair told police they were looking for property and drove farther North, toward the border with Quebec, when Border Patrol Agent David “Chris” Maland stopped them.
It was his last act on the job.
Teresa Consuelo Youngblut, a 21-year-old student at the University of Washington, allegedly opened fire27 with a .40-caliber Glock, killing Maland. In the crossfire, agents killed Youngblut’s companion, a German national who went by the name Ophelia Bauckholt, who was also armed.
The birth name of “Ophelia” is Felix, and Teresa identifies as a man named “Milo” and uses the pronouns “xe/xim/xyrs.”
Investigative reporter Andy Ngo uncovered28 the shooters’ trans identity and apparent link to a cult known as the “Zizians,” founded by math genius Jack “Ziz” LaSota. The members — known as “Zizians” — bond over their love of mathematics, artificial intelligence, transhumanism, and animal rights and are known to live in communal settings inside box trucks.
They are also known for violence. Police say Youngblut’s gun is linked to a double murder29 in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, in 2022. The cult has been linked to the death of 82-year-old Curt Lind, who confronted members of the cult for squatting on his property in Vallejo, California. He survived being stabbed with a samurai sword but was later stabbed to death, allegedly by Youngblut’s fiance30, Maximillian Bentley Snyder.
The cultish behavior will do little to dissuade those who classify gender dysphoria with other psychological comorbidities and mental illnesses.
4. Trans-Identifying Male Prisoner Allegedly Sexually Assaulted Female Cellmate
Elections have consequences. One of the aftershocks of the 2020 election forced a female inmate to share the same cell as a 6'4" male child molester.
The man, Christopher Scott Williams, had been convicting of sexually assaulting a minor and domestic violence. His cellmate, Mozzy Clark, said the hulking predator lurched over her from the top bunk, made sexual comments, and eventually fondled her in her sleep31.
Hers is one of many such stories32, as male criminals have taken advantage of the Biden-era policy to populate women’s prisons.
Kamala Harris boasted that, as attorney general of California, she facilitated33 the taxpayer-funded transgender surgery of a convicted murderer. The Biden-Harris administration made it federal policy to house male inmates who claim to be women in female penitentiaries and sued the state of Utah34 for refusing to replicate his policy at the state level. Biden’s policy proved so popular that one in seven35 inmates in female federal prisons are men, according to statistics from the Bureau of Prisons.
On his first day in office, President Trump signed an executive order36 ensuring “males are not detained in women’s prisons,” but a federal judge blocked37 it.
5. Rainbow Democrats Chairman Arrested for Child Pornography
Late last month, police arrested38 a minor Democratic Party official and LGBTQ activist for child pornography and attempting to molest a child.
Last fall, Matthew Inman, 39, of Orlando, became the “Florida man” in a heinous crime. In the heat of the 2024 presidential campaign last August through October, Inman received multiple videos of child porn on his phone. In October, he traveled39 to Las Vegas to meet with the father of a nine-year-old boy in hopes of molesting the child, officials say.
Inman is treasurer of the Orange County Democratic Party and president of Rainbow Democrats. Both groups understandably condemned Inman and distanced themselves from his private life. Rainbow Democrats released40 a statement making themselves sound like the victim. “The Rainbow Democrats are working to move beyond this horrible incident to continue our service to the community,” the group said41.
The Democratic Party centered much of the last two years around advancing the notion that minors can consent to permanent, life-altering surgeries and hormonal procedures. If minors can consent to something that consequential, it is a small step to argue they can consent to sex.
