Economists increasingly think the U.S. economy will enter into a recession within the next 12 months, according to a Wall Street Journal survey. Experts projected a 28% chance that the U.S. will slip into a recession by 2023, compared to the 13% estimate from 2021, the WSJ survey found. Economists also decreased their projection for

Monday on CBS Mornings, co-host and Democratic Party donor Gayle King closed the show with a nauseatingly soft interview with President Biden’s sister Valerie Biden Owens on how her new autobiography “[gave] us a lot of insight to your brother” and “illuminat[ed]…who he is.” Two of the six minutes touched on her nephew Hunter Biden’s
Last week, PJM’s Chris Queen reported that for the first time, Donald Trump, who has been teasing a 2024 run for the presidency, had given himself an excuse to not run again in 2024: his health. In an interview with the Washington Post, Trump confirmed that he had told advisors that his health would factor
Steve Dettelbach, President Joe Biden’s pick to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, has a long history of issuing statements and backing measures opposing gun rights. Dettelbach supported a number of gun control measures during a failed campaign to be Ohio’s attorney general in 2018, including bans on so-called “assault weapons” and
The Washington Post features a regular history section called Retropolis. And the idea — at least in theory — is to deliver engaging history lessons in the print and online editions of the paper. But on April 6, the Post devoted an entire section of the print paper to Retropolis. That day’s edition spewed vile at
Democrats tried desperately (and are still trying) to nab Donald Trump and his family for something — anything. It’s been a stunning display of endless investigations searching for a crime. There’s something blatantly unconstitutional about this, but when has that ever stopped the left? Now the left faces its own conundrum. While efforts against Trump
Two men who allegedly posed as federal law enforcement agents were tipped off to the FBI’s raid on their apartments, The Daily Beast reported Sunday. Arian Taherzadeh, 40, and Haider Ali, 36, were arrested in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday for allegedly posing as Homeland Security agents since as early as February 2020 to buy off
MILWAUKEE, WI – AUGUST 20: In this screenshot from the DNCC’s livestream of the 2020 Democratic National Convention, Hunter Biden, son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, addresses the virtual convention on August 20, 2020. The convention, which was once expected to draw 50,000 people to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is now taking place virtually due to
The left, aided and abetted by corporate media, continue to promote the notion that Hispanics’ ongoing trend away from the Democratic Party is driven in large part by Spanish-language disinformation originating from Russia. The latest and most thorough instance comes via NBC’s MTP Reports. Watch as NBC journalist Carmen Sesín and Chuck Todd revive a
As many of you know, Kevin and I like to begin every episode by discussing what adult beverage we’re each drinking that day (we prefer not to record sober). We never discuss it ahead of time because that would be too much like show prep. That’s what makes what happened in this episode so magical.
Elon Musk will NOT join Twitter’s board of directors according to a late-night tweet from the company’s CEO, Parag Agrawal. Musk would have become a board member on Saturday, April 9, but apparently thought better of it. The seat came with severe restrictions – namely he would not be able to own more than 14.9%
The furor and faded promise surrounding Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology was the kind of stuff that elected the unlikely populist, Virginia’s Gov. Glenn Youngkin. VIRGINIA—To cruise around I-66, that demanding highway that cuts Northern Virginia west from Washington nearly all the way to West Virginia, is to see nearly none of
During Sunday’s Reliable Sources on CNN, host Brian Stelter continued his obsessive coverage of what he claims is the conservative’s media war against the Walt Disney company by bringing on Abigail Disney, the granddaughter of co-founder Roy Disney, to discuss the controversy surrounding her family’s company. “These GOP media stars can claim they are just protecting
Though anything can happen, the Republican Party will likely win back control of the House and possibly the Senate in November. Without one-party control of the government, Biden’s radical left-wing agenda will be dead on arrival in Congress. Fortunately, he’s already had a hard enough time getting his initiatives through the evenly divided U.S. Senate.
Michael Ramirez Ramirez, who studied premed at the University of California, Irvine, originally considered journalism a hobby. But he was hooked when his first cartoon for the college newspaper, lampooning candidates for student office, had the student assembly demanding an apology. “Editorial cartoons should be smart and substantive, provocative and informative. They should stir passions
Remind us: who is Biden’s border czar? We seem to remember that it’s Kamala Harris—even if, after more than a year in office, she hasn’t managed to make it to the actual border. Yet there was Tiffany Cross—a huge Harris fan—on her MSNBC show Saturday morning, in effect accusing Biden-Harris of a racist double-standard immigration policy favoring
As early as Monday, Philadelphia is expected to reimpose an indoor mask mandate because of increasing positive tests and hospitalizations. Also, two prominent universities — Georgetown and Johns Hopkins — are mandating masking and have instituted testing requirements before students return from spring break. Across the country, cities and regions are mulling reimposing mask mandates
Elon Musk got himself a board of directors position at Twitter by buying a little more than 9% of the company’s stock and now, he’s announcing what he plans to change at the social media behemoth. While many hoped he would add an edit button, re-instate Donald Trump, or instantly fix Twitter’s utterly-broken mediation practices,
On New Day Saturday, CNN analyst Errol Louis suggested that Republicans are opposed to and bitter about the acquisition of civil rights for African Americans as he reacted to Republican resistance to Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s appointment to the Supreme Court. CNN co-host Boris Sanchez began by asking for reaction to Jackson’s confirmation, leading Louis —
As Russian President Vladimir Putin continues his senseless assault on Ukraine, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson took a bold step by visiting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv on Saturday. This show of solidarity underscored the fact that the UK is sending military equipment to Ukraine, including 120 armored vehicles and “anti-ship missile systems,” The New

And the hits just keep on coming. One would think that having been humiliated by their coverage – um, make that lack of coverage – of the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, the liberal media would be just a tad more thoughtful when covering the latest supposed news. That “news,” NewsBusters’ Bill D’Agostino reported, was about
Arizona electing two Democrat U.S. Senators was arguably a fluke. Is the state trending blue? Maybe, but it’s still a red-leaning swing state, and Democrat activists haven’t quite figured that out yet. Even if you believe the official results of the 2020 election, Biden just barely won the state, and he’s now dangerously underwater there
LGBT activists criticized a first-of-its-kind Alabama that makes illegal the practice of giving children sex change treatments, and punishes offenders with up to ten years in prison. Several groups claimed the banned procedures, which include castration and genital reconstruction, were life-saving treatments for transgender children. One activist said banning sex-change treatments for kids would cause
The director of former President Barack Obama’s National Economic Council landed some solid punches and dished out some harsh warnings for the Federal Reserve in a recent Washington Post op-ed. Lawrence Summers took the Federal Reserve to town in a fiery op-ed published in The Post on April 5. He wrote, “I have argued repeatedly
A quick programing note before we get into this week’s super-exciting FMF. A seemingly nice young lady emailed to ask that her years-old FMF entry be deleted because it had led to “damaging Google results and is affecting my career.” So I removed it. And going forward, except in the case of actual convictions, I’ll
Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada is in danger of losing reelection and handing control of the Senate over to Republicans in November. Cortez Masto trailed former Republican Attorney General Adam Laxalt by seven points in a March poll by Democratic Blueprint Polling, which showed Hispanic voters evenly split between the two. “Our Hispanic
The “fact checkers” hate it when abortion opponents highlight how Democrats are in favor of abortion at all times – including “finishing off” the baby after failed abortions a la Ralph Northam. On Thursday, PolitiFact’s Sara Swann tagged Lila Rose of Live Action as “False” for this claim: “Colorado Governor Jared Polis has just signed
And today started out so good! I got a massage and everything. But the cause of the constant pain in my neck is becoming more apparent. Earlier in the week, a public school I’ve been investigating said it would cost $1,650 for some public documents it claimed to have a few days ago. Now that
The Walt Disney Company is staying silent following reports it helps the children of its employees with sex change procedures through its benefits program. A leaked video shared by Manhattan Institute senior fellow Christopher Rufo Thursday purportedly showed a Disney internal meeting in which a man explained Disney’s efforts to help employees “express their gender”
