(Reminder: Every episode is now in the Unwoke section of our new podcast page. I’ll still be doing teaser blurb posts in Columns as reminders that new episodes are up.) New year, new us! Kidding, we haven’t changed at all. It is good to be back though. In this first episode of 2023, Kevin and I dive into

Every president probably stashes away classified documents. The chances of any president being successfully prosecuted for pilfering them are infinitesimal. Nevertheless, Joe Biden has engaged in the same behavior as Donald Trump — perhaps worse, since vice presidents are unable to declassify documents — and precedent and transparency, our very democracy, demanded that Attorney General

In the Monday edition of Amanpour & Co on PBS, host Christiane Amanpour spoke with brand-new Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.) about Brazil, refugees, the Dreamers, and the House Speaker vote. Amanpour let Ramirez’s personal story as a first-generation immigrant stand in for actual journalism, while both host and guest compared the political chaos in Brazil

Say what you want about Donald Trump’s classified documents… At least he didn’t leave them in his garage next to his Corvette. Oh, but the garage was locked, Biden says. As if that matters. I’d trust the security of the secured room at Mar-a-Lago with Secret Service protection over the garage of Joe Biden in

Food and Drug Administration commissioners have reportedly called for the agency to find a way to fight so-called “misinformation” online. If history is any indicator, this just means the agency is calling for more censorship. Apparently there hasn’t been enough censorship of free speech debate about medical products and government actions for the Food and

In a previous article for PJ Media, I distinguished between three categories of consensus liars: those who, whether innocently or ignorantly, actually believe that certain lies are true and will not be dissuaded from their certitude; those with a tremor of insecurity who must believe in a given lie because not to do so would

Several Illinois sheriffs will not enforce the state’s recently passed gun law, with many arguing it violates the Second Amendment, according to NBC Chicago. Sheriffs from Kankakee County, Boone County, Winnebago County and McHenry County posted messages on social media saying they will not comply with the portion of the law that requires residents to

On MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, host Stephanie Ruhle opened her Wednesday night program to whine that House Republicans voted to protect babies born in botched abortions. She went on to huff that there’s “no state that allows any doctor to kill a newborn baby.” If that’s the case, then why does Ruhle apparently oppose a law

Here’s a secret: Republicans care more about the fact that Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) lied about his resume than Democrats. Really. If all it took was a few lies to merit one resigning from Congress, we’d have no Congress. Heck, would we even have a government? Good Lord, how much of Joe Biden’s biography is

Could you use an extra $1,200? That’s exactly what you’ll have in a year if you can find a way to whack just $25 from your food bill each week. But there’s not one single way to reduce food costs. The key is to use a combination of strategies. EAT THE SALES Build your grocery

If a Republican announced a run for the U.S. Senate but was recently in the news for treating their employees horribly, what would be the chance of Politico skipping any mention of that scandal in stories about their Senate bid? Perhaps somewhere between nil and none. However, with the magic “D” by the name of

Joe Biden’s presidency may be trouble. Mere days after we learned that Joe Biden is very close to announcing his intention to run for reelection, we also learned that classified documents were discovered in his private office at the Penn Biden Center. Coincidence? It may not seem like one at first, but when you consider

CNN climate correspondent Bill Weir offered up a strange analogy on multiple Wednesday installments of CNN Newsroom when discussing the possibility of a ban on gas stoves. As Weir tells it, having a gas stove, particularly in small apartments, is akin to an idling car. During the 9 AM Eastern hour reported that, “They’ve banned

Earlier this week, we learned that the Biden administration was considering banning gas stoves because they’re racist and bad for the environment. Really. While it may be true that roughly 40% of households (including my own) use gas stoves, according to certain studies cited by the Biden administration, these are not only appliances of death

Former Uvalde School District Police Chief Pete Arredondo said he did not immediately confront the perpetrator of the May 2022 Robb Elementary School shooting in the classroom as protection for people elsewhere in the school, according to CNN. The shooter killed 19 students and two teachers, with Arredondo treating him as a barricaded subject in

House Republicans carried out a pledge to vote to repeal a $71 billion increase in spending for the Internal Revenue Service that was included in Joe Biden’s so-called “Inflation Reduction Act.” Reporters called this a “messaging bill,” since there’s no chance it will pass a Democrat-controlled Senate or be signed by President Biden. Chief Washington

If you spend much time on public health sites, you’re bound to come across the term “tripledemic.” It refers to what the New York Times calls the “viral onslaught” of Covid-19, influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) — the last being blamed for a worrying increase in hospitalizations among children. Public health officials are blaring

The often wrong but never in doubt New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman is clearly neck-deep in denial about how bad the Biden economy really is. He whipped out a new catch-all to accuse so-called “election deniers” of also being “economy deniers.” Krugman railed in his Jan. 9 column, “Election Deniers Are Also Economy

In the aftermath of the pre-dawn raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in West Palm Beach, Fla., many were speculating that an indictment was imminent against the 45th President of the United States. “I have finally seen enough,” wrote Brad Moss of The Daily Beast, “Donald Trump will be indicted by a federal grand jury.” He

A restaurant owner told Tucker Carlson Tuesday that New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul’s proposal to ban gas stoves for new buildings would “destroy” his industry. “For 35 years, we’ve been attacked by everybody. We had organized crime in our industry in the 30s, 70s, 80s and 90s, in the 2000s, we had corrupt Wall

Plenty of single, unvaccinated people living in the United States won’t be sharing Valentine’s Day with anyone this year…and probably for many years to come. Why? Because only 15% of the U.S. population remains unvaccinated.  And given many of the singles among them will only date other unvaccinated people, pickings are slim and odds, against

Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry revealed that the White House pressured Facebook to censor Tucker Carlson. White House Director of Digital Strategy Robert Flaherty emailed Facebook in April 2021 to call for the platform to censor Fox News host Tucker Carlson, according to a screenshot tweeted Jan. 6 by Landry. Flaherty wrote in his email

On Monday night, we learned that Attorney General Merrick Garland has ordered the U.S. attorney in Chicago to investigate classified documents found at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement in Washington, D.C. Soon after the news broke, supporters of President Trump openly asked whether or not Attorney General Merrick Garland would conduct

CREDIT UNIONS VERSUS BANKS Dear Mary: What is the difference between a bank and a credit union? — Justina Dear Justina: Great question! A bank is a for-profit financial business run by paid board members that’s primary purpose is to make profits for the shareholders. A credit union is a nonprofit financial business that’s owned

On Monday afternoon, CBS was given an exclusive that revealed that classified documents were found at President Biden’s private office at the Penn Biden Center in Washington D.C. After the amount of handwringing and nonstop negative coverage of the news that Trump had classified documents at his home in Mar-a-Lago, you would think the media

The fight between House Speaker Rep. Kevin McCarthy (D-Calif.) and right-wing Republicans is not over. In fact, we can expect that war to continue every time there’s a significant vote in the House. I’m going to keep a private tote board on how many times one of the rebels threatens to offer a motion to

Border enforcement will return to a “status quo” following the president’s visit to El Paso, Texas, Sunday, current and former Border Patrol officials told the Daily Caller News Foundation. President Joe Biden didn’t see the full scope of the border crisis because federal authorities were instructed to ramp up enforcement, Retired Deputy Patrol Agent in
