President Biden acknowledged on Friday that the White House must do more to fight inflation, even as American families are being squeezed by higher prices. The president dismissed the idea that his $3 trillion in spending proposals would drive prices higher. In fact, he claims passage of his $1.75 trillion Build Back Better bill, along

The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit temporarily halted the Biden administration’s rule requiring employers with over 100 workers to mandate vaccines or implement weekly testing In a ruling issued Saturday on a lawsuit filed by state attorneys general, the court ordered the vaccine mandate to be temporarily halted.

Congressman Jim Banks is back on Twitter after he deleted a tweet that went against the platform’s Terms of Service. On October 19, Banks tweeted about Dr. Rachel Levine, a transgender woman who recently became the first transgender four-star officer in the U.S. uniformed service. “The title of first female four-star officer gets taken by

Joe Biden got one of the best jobs reports of his presidency on Friday, with the economy adding 531,000 jobs in October and unemployment dropping to a post-pandemic low of 4.7 percent. And Biden wants us to think it’s because of him. “This did not happen by accident or just because,” Biden said before crediting

The klaxon has been blaring for some time now, in many parts of the country and with regard to many items of warning. These assorted thoughts are meant for those who’ve been practicing “selective hearing”. California is Commie Ground Zero In my circle, part of the regular discussion is the concept of “what do we

(Jonathan Ernst/Reuters) The United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, based in New Orleans, has issued a terse order temporarily halting the Biden Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Emergency Temporary

Microsoft opened an event by apologizing to indiginous tribes of America on whose land their offices are built. No word on whether Bill Gates wants to actually return them.  Microsoft hosted Microsoft Ignite 2021 in a Nov. 2 broadcast and couldn’t wait more than 30 seconds to start spewing woke gibberish. After an initially cheerful

While in Europe for the G20, Joe Biden pledged that the United States would only back out of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action—commonly referred to as the Iran Nuclear Deal—if Tehran violates the terms of the deal. The problem with Biden’s pledge is that it has no authority to get us back into the

There are plenty of leftists to choose from if we’re looking for idiotic analysis in the aftermath of Tuesday’s disastrous election loss by Virginia’s Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe; who coincidentally was our Knucklehead of the Week last Saturday. Stupidity abounds. But when we weigh the foolishness of the talking heads on CNN, MSNBC, and

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) speaks during her weekly news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., October 28, 2021. (Al Drago/Reuters) As we get late into Friday night, it appears that House Democrats are closing in on a deal that would pass the infrastructure bill while moving the ball forward on President Biden’s multi-trillion

Thoughts on the National Conservatism Conference 2021. Among the free peoples who govern themselves there is but a small field of usefulness open for the men of cloistered life who shrink from contact with their fellows. Still less room is there for those who deride or slight what is done by those who actually bear

On her Twitter bio, NBC’s Jane Timm describes herself as a “Senior reporter telling stories about voting rights.” With such an activist description of herself, it was fitting that she joined Hallie Jackson Reports on MSNBC on Friday to question if corporations care about “voting rights.” After all they are still giving money to Republicans. After congratulating Timm

Kaiser Health News, a publication of the Kaiser Family Foundation, reports that emergency rooms are overwhelmed nationwide, even in areas where COVID-19 is very low. According to the report: “We are hearing from members in every part of the country,” said Dr. Lisa Moreno, president of the American Academy of Emergency Medicine. “The Midwest, the South,

Rwandan Environment Minister Jeanne d’Arc Mujawamariya slammed youth activist Greta Thunberg on Friday for her criticism of the ongoing COP26 climate summit. The top Rwandan diplomat said Thunberg’s critique of a carbon credit system, which developing nations are largely in favor of, was unnecessary, Politico reported. Under a carbon credit system, countries and private businesses

Just before midnight on Friday, we witnessed an utterly disgraceful act by a group of 13 House Republicans. Given the chance to deal a severe blow to President Biden’s flailing agenda, they instead rescued him by providing Speaker Nancy Pelosi with the votes she needed to overcome resistance from the far Left of her party.

Progressives are gleefully heralding their transformation of a great American city into something unrecognizable.

Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has suddenly become one of the great villains in pro sports. He caught the covid this week and it turns out he never got vaccinated. Thus, sneering sports mandarins like Nancy Armour cast him out into the darkness as “anti-science.” It won’t help that Rodgers isn’t contrite. In fact,

It seems like we go through this every election. I spent the majority of 2016 convinced Donald Trump would lose the election easily because that’s what the polls said. Still, as much as those of us who repeatedly encourage people to ignore polls and point out how wrong they often are, political junkies can’t stop.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm laughed out loud when asked during an interview Friday what her plan was to ease gasoline prices nationwide. “That is hilarious,” Granholm laughed when asked by a Bloomberg anchor. “Would that I had the magic wand on this.” Granholm then blamed Middle Eastern oil providers, repeating a Biden administration claim that

Congressional Democrats doubled down last night on a version of their $1.75 trillion spending package after it was revealed that they had removed a prohibition on the distribution of new research funding to Chinese companies complicit in the Uyghur genocide. The removal of an amendment that had barred the bill’s funding for National Science Foundation programs

The terrible election results for Democrats are going to lead to some terrible conclusions. One might be the assumption that these bad results reflect a media that’s too hostile to the Democrats. Greg Sargent of The Washington Post tweeted this lame summary from former Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer: “Republicans have a massive communications advantage…[Glenn] Youngkin

Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) could save the country and his political career by switching parties. After what happened in his neighboring state of Virginia, it is quite clear that the political environment for him to switch parties couldn’t be better. Manchin has acknowledged that he’s approached “every day” about switching parties and that it probably would

The radical left has helped Americans remember both who they are and who they must be to preserve our republican government. Conservatives are right to become alarmed when any new socialist variant appears to be gaining political traction and to do their best to expose the intellectual errors underlying its deceptive appeal. Modern progressivism is

CNN Inside Politics host John King agreed with Democratic strategist Paul Begala on Thursday that Republican attacks against Critical Race Theory were nothing more than racist dog whistles for suburbanites who don’t like diversity. At one point, King went so far as to echo Democratic allegations that it was a “horsesh*t” issue. Begala was lamenting that both

A key ally of President Biden, Sen. Tom Carper of Delaware, announced he would no longer oppose the proposed exception to the Senate’s filibuster rule. “I do not come to this decision lightly, but it has become clear to me that if the filibuster is standing in the way of protecting our democracy then the

Consider this information you may want to know in order to prepare. Zero Hedge reported on panic buying in China after its government told households: “Ministry of Commerce encourages households to stockpile daily necessities as needed.” While Americans may not care, this announcement should be a warning of things to come here. As David Knight

I have a column today on DOJ special counsel John Durham’s false-statements indictment of Igor Danchenko, the main source for the discredited Steele dossier that the FBI used as a basis for investigating the Trump campaign as if Donald Trump were a clandestine agent of Russia. One of the main allegations against Danchenko is that
