The Beatles were right: money can’t buy you love. That’s bad news for Joe Biden. Despite showering voters with hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars, the president is discovering that the handouts flowing from the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan are not buying him love – or even decent approval ratings. In a new NPR/Marist […]
How long will it be until Democrats decide to throw Jerome Powell under the bus? After all, why should President Biden’s big-spending agenda absorb the stink-bomb of inflation when the Federal Reserve chair is also clearly to blame for soaring prices? A new report shows inflation is running hotter. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 6.8 […]
Let us be clear: the heinous crime wave sweeping our country has nothing to do with COVID-19, as White House spokesperson Jen Psaki has suggested, but everything to do with progressive Democrats throttling law enforcement in our major cities. This. Must. Stop. It must stop especially because policies to reduce what Democrats call “mass incarceration,” […]
Joe Biden vowed to be “the most pro-union president you’ve ever seen” and is quickly making good on that promise. Is it working for him politically? No, it is not. Working-class Americans are more concerned about high inflation, open borders, rising crime and vaccine mandates than they are about the declining fortunes of Big Labor. […]
Americans don’t hate Joe Biden; they just think he’s incompetent. With omicron, the highly contagious new COVID mutation barreling down on us, that’s not reassuring. It is also not speculation; it’s the reading from the most recent Economist/YouGov poll, which found only 17% of the nation approves strongly of Biden’s performance even as 39% like […]
Does Joe Biden actually want to crush low-income Americans with high inflation? You have to wonder. Since Biden took office, it seems his every decision has tilted toward driving prices higher. The White House has gone out of its way to squash U.S. oil and gas production, helping to raise the cost of gasoline and home […]
The recent climate summit in Glasgow provided plenty of theater. Perhaps nothing was more theatrical than the global shakedown effort staged by a group of African nations that demanded the developed world hand over $1.3 trillion every year to compensate them for the hardships delivered by climate change. That preposterous figure – twice the GDP of Belgium – disappeared from […]
Are you better off than you were two years ago? That’s what Republicans will ask voters a year from now. That was the question Ronald Reagan famously posed to Americans during his last debate with then-president Jimmy Carter. The country answered by delivering one of the greatest election landslides of all time; Reagan won 489 […]
Inflation is soaring, and voters blame President Biden. A Morning Consult poll in late October showed 62 percent of registered voters believe Biden’s policies are to blame for rising prices on everything from turkeys to gasoline to apartment rents. Guess what? They should. Biden’s fingerprints are all over the latest Consumer Price Index report, which showed prices in October […]
Progressives are so 2020. They may not know it yet, but the ultra-liberal cabal that has choked Democrat politicsand humiliated spineless party leaders like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has lost its mojo. That was the message sent this past Election Day, and it was long overdue. Two questions remain. First, will a weakened progressive wing […]
