You have to hand it to Iowa Democrats. Faced with a bewildering bevy of candidates vying for their attention, voters are promoting those who may credibly challenge President Trump in the 2020 race while winnowing out the buffoons and publicity-seekers who are merely along for the ride. According to the latest survey, […]
Joe Biden just rolled out a plan to tackle climate change, the second big policy offering of his campaign.

During the Democratic Party convention that took place over the weekend in California, candidates not hewing to today’s progressive manifesto were loudly booed. John Hickenlooper, former governor of Colorado, was jeered by the liberal audience when he dared to say that “socialism is not the answer.” Similarly, former Maryland Representative John Delaney was heckled […]

Liberal media and political pundits are shocked — shocked! — that Australia’s coal-loving conservative prime minister won reelection.
