Inflation is running rampant, federal spending is out of control, gas prices are at an all-time high and Americans are pessimistic on the future outlook of the economy. So what is President Joe Biden’s solution? He has released a budget proposal that includes 36 tax increases on families and businesses totaling $2.5 trillion over the next decade. Alarmingly,

Last week in this space, the late arrival of the New York Times to the Hunter Biden “laptop-from-hell” was noted – along with the damage to the “paper-of-record’s” credibility. Now the embarrassment has spread, as it should. Here’s the headline in the New York Post. It was, recall, the New York Post that published the
The debate happening in New York state over Gov. Kathy Hochul’s proposals to show how tough Democrats are on crime mirrors the debate happening across the country and in Washington, D.C. On the radical left, the debate is over: no bail, light sentences for everything except violent offenses, and don’t send too many black people

After the story about how the Trump White House phone logs from January 6, 2021, supposedly had a seven-hour missing gap was proven to be just another media hoax, the evening newscasts on Friday evening decided to ignore this inconvenient truth and focus on other topics. This despite all three networks covering the initial allegation on Monday
Oh no, Florida Man. Not that: Named as 21-year-old Xavier Matthews, the man was attempting a car burglary in the parking lot of a takeaway outlet in the city of Jacksonville in Florida when the accident happened. The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office told local station Action News Jax Matthews was found lying in a ditch after
Facebook and Twitter both filter what you see, decide what you should believe, and make sure anything you see or read fits a single narrative – why would this site follow that model? It never will. We get heat for publishing libertarian stuff, non-interventionist stuff, pro-Ukraine stuff, warmongering stuff, pro-China stuff, and anti-China stuff. It
On Tuesday, former New York Times cybersecurity writer and ultra lefty Nicole Perlroth tweeted what came off to her base as a beatdown of the Fox News Channel in how she declined an offer to appear on one of their shows: Clearly proud of herself, she reupped the same response two days later in a
Joe Biden always had a problem — an old white guy problem. Let’s face it, the Democratic Party isn’t interested in white males anymore. In 2008, Democrats supported Barack Obama despite his painfully obvious lack of experience, with disastrous consequences. In 2016, to further prove their anti-white-men bona fides, they nominated Hillary Clinton, the most
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has been getting a lot of heat in recent weeks over the state’s controversial ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill (HB 1557). Disney joined the fray on Monday, the same day DeSantis signed the bill into law, with a statement condemning the legislation. But while the controversy surrounding the bill is what’s been
1. Bishop of Odessa, Ukraine: ‘In this war both peoples are victims’ The bishop says that his city of Odessa currently finds itself at the “epicenter of the war.” Every day there are air raid sirens and attacks. “So many ruins, so many tears, so much blood in our country.” In the first month of
People too young to remember the Nixon era, or who haven’t studied it, might assume that the left’s seething hostility to Donald Trump is unprecedented. In fact, back in his day, the left’s loathing of President Richard Nixon was overwhelming. When he was ultimately driven to resign over Watergate, there was great glee and rejoicing
The Senate is near a deal to pass $10 billion in new COVID assistance, including money for testing and for a second booster shot for every American. But Democrats are balking because there’s no money for “global vaccine assistance.” This apparently matters to a lot of Democrats and may upend the deal for additional COVID

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D., Ariz.) speaks in support of a judicial nominees during a hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., December 4, 2019. (Joshua Roberts/Reuters) I’ve grown quite tired of criticisms of Kyrsten Sinema’s wardrobe. Sinema’s clothes draw an unnecessary amount of attention; the New York Times, for instance, has run four different pieces
Just when you thought the Hunter Biden scandals had died in darkness, The Washington Post published more than 6,300 words on the last day of March admitting that a notable fraction of Hunter’s laptop contents were authentic. Why now? Why not last year? Why did liberal outlets act like everyone expressing concern about Hunter was
I deliberately avoided writing about the Will Smith stuff at the Oscars because I knew I wanted to go over it with Kevin, who wrote an excellent post about it. Smith’s crybaby antics at the Academy Awards were wrong on so many levels and we break them all down here. via GIPHY Kevin also kicked

From the HHS Office of Population Affairs publication: Gender-affirming care is a supportive form of healthcare. It consists of an array of services that may include medical, surgical, mental health, and non-medical services for transgender
After ignoring the story during their flagship morning show Today on Thursday morning, and completely botching the story by making it all about former President Donald Trump last night, NBC finally adequately covered the growing investigation into Hunter Biden, with NBC Nightly News dedicating an entire segment to the story. Meanwhile, ABC and CBS have
Did you know Thursday is Transgender Day of Visibility? You might not have known that, and even if you did, you probably wondered why such a day is even necessary. Are transgender people and issues not given enough attention? Every time a biological man steals an opportunity from real women, the mainstream media and the
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released guidance Thursday endorsing gender reassignment procedures for children. The documents, “Gender Affirming Care and Young People” released by the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) and “Gender-Affirming Care Is Trauma-Informed Care” released by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National Child Traumatic Stress Network (NCTSN),

For the second day in a row, Thursday, guest co-host and Lincoln Project conservative Tara Setmayer triggered a member of ABC’s The View. This time it was Hollywood elitist Whoopi Goldberg who was irritated that Setmayer had called out the folks of Hollywood for being elitist and for their moral hypocrisy following the slapping incident
I see you. I know and love many of you, and you love me. In fact, throughout my life, I’ve been drawn to normie gay men and you to me. We always find each other. When I was in college, I found you in my dance classes and we made fast friends and hung out
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been experiencing some serious “apocalypse fatigue.” For the past two years the news has been dominated by one world-threatening catastrophe after another. It’s like the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are in a relay race. Pestilence (COVID) only eased up on the horse whip after passing the baton
(Bulat Silvia/Getty Images) There is absolutely no reason for a free, educated people to accept the concerted progressive efforts to distort objective reality. And yet, one by one, our major media and political organizations have been bullied and captured by transgender ideologies. Maddy Kearns has been one of the nation’s leading voices opposing this destructive
After two hundred and sixty-one days of ignoring Hunter Biden’s mounting scandals and corrupt business activities, the evening network newscasts finally reported on President Biden’s corrupt son. Yet despite the rediscovery, ABC’s World News Tonight decided to defend Hunter, while NBC Nightly News made the segment about former President Trump requesting Russian President Vladimir Putin
I’m not the first to observe that wokeness — progressivism, leftism, liberalism, Marxism, intersectionality, whatever you want to call it — is easily likened to a deadly infection. First, the target host’s immune system is suppressed (in this analogy, by leftist cultural pressure), leaving it unable to fend off the ideological bacteria once it enters
Dear Mary: I’ve just discovered that my parents are being discriminated against because they don’t have a credit card. It’s a huge injustice if you discriminate due to color, race or religion, and this is totally unacceptable in our society. If you don’t own a credit card, you are not allowed to get a rental
