According to a recent NBC poll, only 33 percent of Americans think President Biden is doing a good job managing the economy. What do they know? Biden has backed reckless government spending that led to a supply and demand imbalance, undermined our domestic oil and gas production, which helped drive energy costs higher, and encouraged federal handouts […]
Stop the presses! Donald Trump is running for office again! Actually no, he is not. But Americans might be forgiven for thinking so. The liberal media has put Trump front and center in primary races across the nation. They are hoping that Trump’s favored picks will suffer a slew of defeats, thus showing the former president out […]
Just recently, Republicans and Senator Manchin blocked passage of legislation that, as the New York Times described it, would “enshrine the landmark Roe v. Wade precedent in federal law.” Reporting on that defeat, few news organizations, including the Times, provided a link to the Democrats’ proposed bill. There’s a reason for that. While the Times dutifully linked to […]
Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, accelerated in April, rising 0.6 percent from the previous month, while the March increase was 0.3 percent. That is bad news. In addition, the headline print on 12-month price hikes was 8.3 percent, worse than the consensus expectation of 8.1 percent. The only life raft for President Biden? That 8.3 […]
Elon Musk, Time magazine’s 2021 Person of the Year, is under attack. Why? Because he is bucking the liberal establishment and wants to make sure that you can too. The FTC is reportedly reviewing Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter, possibly setting up a lengthy investigation of potential anti-trust issues with the acquisition. A probe which could […]
Americans are getting poorer by the day, and they can thank President Biden. Too harsh? Not at all. Stock markets are crashing, costing Americans trillions of dollars, and home prices will likely follow. All of this is happening even though our economy remains essentially strong. Why the disconnect? Americans are worried about inflation and don’t think the Biden […]
In the galaxy of bad decisions made by President Biden, the proposal to ban menthol cigarettes doesn’t rank high up the list. It is, however, another reminder of just how terrible the president is at politics, an arena in which he should shine. After all, Mr. Biden has done nothing in his entire life but politics. He hasn’t […]
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted this week that allowing Elon Musk to buy Twitter, and thus giving him “the power to decide how millions of people can communicate with each other” is “dangerous for our democracy…” With all due respect to the ever-angry progressive senator, Musk’s purchase of Twitter is way, way down the list of assaults on our […]
Joe Biden was darned lucky he chose Kamala Harris as his running mate. If he had teamed up with someone capable, someone who had won the trust of the country, Biden might be headed out to pasture. Good pick, Joe. This is not, as Joe might say, hyperbole. Over the past few months, the president […]
Woke corporate America is finally getting some push-back. It’s about time. Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) has punished the Walt Disney Company for interfering in his state’s politics, signing a bill that strips the Mouse House of special tax status in Florida. The issue? Disney defaming DeSantis’s much maligned “Don’t Say Gay” bill, which, ironically, says […]
