On March 31, 2021 the White House issued a news release regarding Biden’s “American Jobs Plan” that laid out ambitions for far more than creating good jobs.

The U.S. Supreme Court Building in Washington, D.C. (Melpomenem/Getty Images) A good sign that your argument is neither good nor popular is when you have to keep changing the long-accepted meaning of words.

How the administration plans on expanding its already massive surveillance apparatus. The Biden administration may soon recruit an army of private snoops to conduct surveillance that would be illegal if done by federal agents.

Black men are systemically shot and killed in New York City and no one seems to care because the triggers aren’t pulled by cops. If you say discussing this is a distraction from racism, you do it from atop a lot of graves. And how can anyone say that doesn’t matter? The context is that
The operator of America’s largest fuel pipeline suspended all operations Friday due to a ransomware attack. “This is what businesses now have to worry about,” U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said Sunday during an interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “Unfortunately, these sorts of attacks are becoming more frequent.

New York Times reporter-at-large Sarah Lyall was granted the full back page of Sunday’s Arts & Leisure section to suck up to liberal voting activist and sore-loser Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

On his Saturday morning show Velshi, MSNBC host Ali Velshi played fact checker, claiming it’s a “LIE” to say President Biden’s agenda is socialism.
