ANALYSIS – It wasn’t a good moment for National Security Communications Director John Kirby. The former Navy admiral and prior Pentagon spokesman was left dumbfounded when a New York Post reporter challenged him on the numerous scandals and investigations swirling around Joe Biden. Citing a Harvard/Harris poll in May that found 53% of Americans believe Biden was […]
The budget deal brokered between House GOP leaders and the Biden administration proposes very modest spending restraint, even as it removes the possibility of another debt ceiling showdown for at least two years. This pleases no one on the fringes of political discourse – those who embraced the Trumpish assertion that default was better than […]
Reports claim that Wall Street banks have been illicitly spying on customers and reporting gun buyers to the FBI, despite no probable cause or court-issued warrants. In response, Congressman Alex X. Mooney, R-W.Va., has introduced H.R. 3021, The Protecting the Second Amendment in Financial Services Act, to “expressly prohibit financial institutions and credit card companies […]
Heather Cox Richardson self-identifies as a “historian” and works as a Professor of History at Boston College. Her newsletter is called Letters From An American, which sounds as anodyne as iodine. This earns her the benefit of the doubt as I examine her review of the FBI threat assessment document. On the other hand, I […]
ANALYSIS – China has just announced that it plans to land its version of astronauts ‘taikonauts’ on the moon by 2030. This would be a first for any country other than the United States, which last sent men to the moon on the Apollo 17 mission in 1972. Along with China’s other impressive space developments, […]
ANALYSIS – It appears that the conservative backlash against the overwhelming oppression of the radical LGBT agenda is finally having an effect. Not only with companies like Budweiser feeling the pain of hiring a man who claims to be a woman as a digital ambassador for its beer, but the Pentagon is feeling it too. […]
Politicians have a saying: “Stand in the middle of the road, and you’ll get run over.” But if you keep jumping from one side to the other, you’re just as likely to get hit as the makers of Bud Light are learning. As you may still recall, Anheuser-Busch InBev’s sales plummeted in April after some […]
ANALYSIS – Joe Biden appears to be panicking over the downturn in U.S.-China relations (and lack of high-level communication) on his watch. While the belligerent communist regime in Beijing is the cause of the increasingly bad blood, Biden thinks making nice with the Chinese Communists (CHICOM) is the solution. As part of Biden’s attempt to […]
I know personally two famous Heathers but was only recently introduced to the third. Heather Richardson Higgins is the CEO of Independent Women’s Voice and chairwoman of its sister organization, Independent Women’s Forum. She grew up wealthy but served as a Senate aide in Washington, D.C., eventually presiding over the family philanthropic foundation left by […]
ANALYSIS – FBI Director Christopher Wray has steadfastly refused to provide the House Oversight and Accountability Committee an internal Bureau document that alleges Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe from Chinese sources. The committee issued a subpoena for it a while ago. Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., has said he learned about the allegations […]
In a new article, Teen Vogue reports that Black Studies are, in fact, for everyone. The subhead actually says “Rather than ‘indoctrinating’ me, it’s done the exact opposite.” The full title is “Black Studies Is Under Attack by Conservatives, but The Teachings Are for Everyone.” The problem with this is that the teachings that everyone gets from […]
Calling Out GOP Hypocrisy When It Comes To Military Spending
With federal spending still on a lot of people’s minds, it’s worth noting another section of the budget deal between House Republican leaders and the Biden administration contained a 3.3 percent hike in defense spending. That means in the next fiscal year, America will spend roughly $886 billion on defense programs and personnel. While it’s […]
