What an incredible mess Joe Biden will be leaving for Donald Trump on Jan. 20. It isn’t just the $36 trillion in federal debt (up $13 trillion since 2020), which has increasingly (and foolishly) been financed by short-term borrowings; it is also inflation that refuses to die despite slumping energy prices, a Strategic Petroleum Reserve that has been drained to perilous levels, a weapons […]
President-elect Donald Trump is offering to bail out failing Democrat governors and mayors by deporting migrants who are in the country illegally. Stupidly, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and California’s Gov. Gavin Newsom, among others, are refusing his help. Cities like Denver and states like California are spending fortunes caring for the estimated ten million people who […]
The political left already hates Elon Musk. But its anger toward the disruptive billionaire, Tesla founder and now Donald Trump bestie is only going to get worse. Musk’s likely success in artificial intelligence poses a long-term threat to liberals who hope to dominate not only how we look backward — that is, how our history is written — […]
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is right– the U.S. is flunking health care. Our country spends nearly twice as much on medical care per person than other wealthy countries but our outcomes – measured by life expectancy, infant mortality, unmanaged diabetes and heart attack mortality — are far worse. This is an industry that begs to be disrupted. […]
The message is clear to those with the effrontery to drive into Manhattan: We don’t need you, and we don’t want you. Imagine that you own a shop, and that your business is trending downhill. You’ve lost some customers to competitors, who are offering lower prices and better service, and you’ve been forced to lay […]
How entertaining it will be in coming months to watch Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy take a hatchet to our bloated, inefficient federal government. After all, their threats to do just that are already causing massive meltdowns on the left, and they haven’t fired a single person. Entertaining, yes, but shrinking our government and cutting unnecessary regulations is also deadly […]
Democrats and their media enablers are trying to make sense of last Tuesday’s election – the biggest shift to the right since Ronald Reagan became president in 1980 – searching for where they went wrong. The good news for the GOP is that they haven’t got a clue. The main disconnect is that they fail to acknowledge […]
Donald Trump winning the popular vote and control of Congress was not the only shocker this week; the stock market response was almost as stunning. On Nov. 6, the day after the former president was declared the winner over Vice President Kamala Harris, stocks posted their best post-election day ever. Shares hit all-time highs and the dollar made its biggest one-day advance since […]
Donald Trump has just accomplished the most stunning political comeback in the history of the United States. The former president, who lost his bid for re-election in 2020, was impeached twice, convicted on multiple (flimsy) felony counts, investigated, sued, harassed without end, denounced as a fascist, blasted as too old, “deranged” and “unstable,” not only won […]
It’s Election Day, at last. Though we don’t know who will win this razor-tight contest, we do know that if V.P. Kamala Harris becomes our next president, it will be because men failed to show up. Consider the early voting in Georgia: as of November 4, 2.2 million women had cast ballots, outnumbering male voters by 27%. In […]
