[ad_1] There isn’t much to say that isn’t said clearly by the data itself, apart from a reminder that it’s not even winter-coat weather yet in the U.S. If we’re setting records for cases with the entirety of respiratory disease season (a.k.a. “flu season”) still ahead of us, God only knows what sort of epidemic

[ad_1] Judge Emmett Sullivan’s efforts to drag out his decision about whether or not to dismiss the case against Michael Flynn continues. Today Flynn demanded that the DOJ review evidence submitted in the case and swear under penalty of perjury that it is accurate: A federal judge on Friday ordered prosecutors in the Michael Flynn

[ad_1] Most of the time, the media doesn’t outright lie to you. Yeah, every once in a while they’ll blurt out a huge whopper (“Russian collusion”), but usually it’s more subtle than that. They’ll give you the facts, but they’ll emphasize some facts over others to preserve the narrative they’re selling. They’ll lie by omission.

[ad_1] Amazon Prime subscribers can watch the new Borat movie today, and my review is here. As I noted, there’ll be a lot of debate over what exactly Rudy Giuliani did with his hands after “Borat’s daughter,” a 24-year-old actress pretending to be a conservative TV journalist, removes his microphone in the bedroom of a

[ad_1] Last night, Biden said, “Not one single person with private insurance would lose their insurance under my plan, nor did they under Obamacare.” The second part of that sentence is flatly false. While neither the Washington Post nor the New York Times included it in their fact-checking round-ups about the debate, in 2013 and

[ad_1] Wednesday Democrats announced that they would boycott the Judiciary Committee vote on Amy Coney Barrett. Instead of showing up for the vote they set up over-sized photos in their chairs of people who could lose their Obamacare insurance. This stunt didn’t accomplish anything except to signal to frustrated resistance Democrats that their representatives are

[ad_1] “We’ll have a big, beautiful party at the end,” Donald Trump promised today in announcing two moves in the Middle East.

[ad_1] No profession is ever really “finished” after a catastrophic failure. Ask someone who opposed the Iraq war. They’ll talk your ear off about how cheerleaders for the invasion ended up failing upward in the foreign policy establishment or landing softly as “wise men” commentators in American media. Polling won’t disappear either if it misjudges

[ad_1] This morning Ed wrote about Joe Biden’s comments in last night’s debate about the oil industry. I wanted to highlight some reactions from the media and from within the industry itself.

[ad_1] President Donald Trump answers a question during the final presidential debate in Nashville, Tenn., October 22, 2020.

[ad_1] There’s malarkey, and then there’s recycled malarkey. In what had been one of Joe Biden’s few better moments of last night’s debate, the former VP suddenly offered up a rehash of the Obama administration’s biggest lies about its signature health-care policy. Biden insisted that no one would lose their private insurance under his health care plan —

[ad_1] One of the many digital advertisements that the Biden campaign has produced suddenly disappeared earlier this week. At first glance, the now “private” video didn’t seem all that unusual.
