There were only two dozen of them. They held their phones up to the windows of the coach to film from inside their first moments in a new country. The smiling and waving said it all. Image: Only a handful of people were permitted to cross the border – but it is expected more will
Big Data Poll Director Richard Baris slammed a CNBC economic survey arguing that President Joe Biden won an initial approval rating that topped the first ratings of the last four presidents. CNBC’s recent All-America Economic Survey of 1,000 people claimed that Biden’s leftist agenda won him a whopping 62 percent initial approval rating for his “handling
Earlier this week, Joe Biden said “we didn’t have” a COVID-19 vaccine when he took office. It was quickly dismissed as a gaffe because, as we all know, there was indeed a COVID-19 vaccine when Biden took office. Biden himself received his two doses before taking office. I questioned whether Biden’s “gaffe” was indeed a
This seems like a shame — a shame that it didn’t include the resignation of the entire board. Oakley’s school board made national news when a parent recorded what members thought was a private conversation, and captured the board’s contempt for parents anxious to get their children back in school. Board president Lisa Brizendine resigned
Around 200 illegal immigrants including at least 40 unaccompanied minors were apprehended in Mission, Texas after being smuggled into the U.S., according to border officials.

Supporters of President Joe Biden took to social media to express their outrage after Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) said that he would vote against the nomination of Neera Tanden to the head of the Office of Management and Budget. Manchin said that Tanden’s toxic tweeting against Republicans and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) convinced him that
An 11-year-old boy went to bed Tuesday night in his family’s unheated mobile home in Conroe, Texas, and never woke up, becoming among the youngest people to date to pass away this week during the state’s devastating power grid failure amid winter storms. Authorities believe the 6th grader, Cristian Pavon, succumbed to hypothermia. What are
CNN exaggerated its own impact by hosting Joe Biden for a “town hall” on Tuesday night. Chris Cuomo previewed it by claiming ”We’re minutes away from history!” Well, at least they treated the event as historic enough for their “fact checker” Daniel Dale to review it for boo-boos. But guess what? Dale never appeared on CNN’s
On the cusp of Supreme Court arguments about Arizona’s ban on the controversial practice of ballot harvesting, President Joe Biden’s Justice Department pulled a surprise maneuver—inaction. The Biden administration in effect maintained the same position, for now, as the Trump administration regarding a major election integrity case. In a carefully worded letter to the Supreme
Joe Biden traveled to Portage, Michigan on Friday to tour the Pfizer vaccine facility. A Covid vaccine is already available thanks to President Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed.” Clueless Biden shuffled through the Pfizer plant with two masks on his face. According to Dr. Fauci, there is no data that indicates double masking is going to
President Joe Biden participates in a CNN town hall in Milwaukee, Wis., February 16, 2021. (Leah Millis/Reuters) By creating conditions that could lead the Federal Reserve to slow the recovery, President Biden’s $1.9 trillion economic relief and stimulus proposal might stop the benefits of an expanding economy from reaching low-wage workers. According to my calculations,

In Mountain Peak Drive, the neighbours are gathering in the street. In this corner of Texas, there is a strong sense of community – a desire to help each other out. And right now, there’s a lot of helping to be done. The water has just been turned back on in this community, near the
On Thursday morning, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle dedicated an entire segment of her 9:00 a.m. ET hour show to blaming Republicans for the suffering of millions of Texans who have been afflicted by recent freezing temperatures and snow storms. During her opening, Ruhle — who is known for being a Democratic sympathizer — decried Republican elected officials for “spending their
Texas is that rare state that has everything: oil, natural gas, coal, space for wind and solar, rare earth minerals, great food, good looking people, and abundant humility. Maybe not that last one. And we haven’t had a Super Bowl champion in much too long a time. Anyway, Friday morning I pulled electric power generation
Old and busted: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will take on Chuck Schumer! New hotness: Governor AOC? Despite not having a dog in this particular fight, Ocasio-Cortez released a statement this afternoon demanding that the Democrat-controlled New York state legislature conduct a “full investigation” into Cuomo’s nursing-home scandal. Seems like Cuomo might be losing his edge, but don’t count

James “Bo Snerdley” Golden, Rush Limbaugh’s longtime friend and producer on “The Rush Limbaugh Show,” got emotional while recalling the life of the late conservative talk radio pioneer.

Former President Donald Trump has reportedly been in talks with donors about his much anticipated return to social media. After years of censorship, and with politicians refusing to solve it, Trump may once again take action where others have failed. “Former President Donald Trump has told friends he has hundreds of millions of dollars in
As the left chooses between blue and green, the right embraces both coal country and a new emphasis on conservation. There’s an old clip of Gore Vidal from (when else?) 1968 in which our most literate of trolls gazes cooly at his interviewer and proceeds to recommend all manner of horrible things. He begins with
The media’s deep arrogance about the Democrats’ superior standing as the Party of Science and Competent Government when it comes to the coronavirus is personified in New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. He has been hailed for many months as a wonderful role model, an inspiring anti-Trump. Somehow, each and every tragic coronavirus death was laid
Joe Biden addressed the Texas power crisis on Friday and said he may be visiting Texas soon but he isn’t sure when. Texas got hit with a rare cold snap that spanned to the southern part of the state and the power grids gave out. Power outages were initiated by the Electric Reliability Council of
A point that really could have been clearer in much of the coverage of the vaccinations in the past two months: the first dose and the second dose of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are the same thing. Many people’s bodies react differently to the second shot, but the substance is identical. “What is injected
The man who heads up South Dakota’s justice efforts has been charged on misdemeanour counts after being involved in a fatal crash last summer.

When Walmart CEO Doug McMillon went to the White House last week, he said he gave a clear message: Americans urgently need another round of stimulus checks.

With the revelation that federal investigators were looking into New York Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo’s corruption with state nursing home deaths, and state Democrats setting the stage for a possible impeachment, CNN Prime Time host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo and CNN Tonight host Don Lemon were desperate to make Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz’s bad optics
