The Daily Signal reports on Joe Biden’s current political role, public statements, and party influence, with updates on investigations, policy advocacy, and his standing among Democrats.
There’s a reason that President Joe Biden’s advisers keep his access to the press as minimal as they can. They don’t trust him to answer reporters in a way that helps his standing in the polls. It’s likely that he’ll lose his temper, or he’ll lie preposterously. On Wednesday, on the cusp of a Republican…
Hunter Biden’s indictment in California on tax charges turns up the heat on President Joe Biden, making it harder for him to dodge questions about “lies” he told the public, legal experts said Thursday night.

After being asked the other day why he’s interacted with “so many” foreign associates of his son Hunter and brother James, President Joe Biden responded by claiming the allegations were “a bunch of lies.” This, of course, wasn’t the first time the president blatantly lied about his role in the family influence-peddling business. You might…

The House will move next week to authorize an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden with regard to his family’s alleged influence peddling. In September, then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., endorsed an impeachment inquiry into Biden—but with no House vote to proceed on the investigation.

The Biden administration has decided against striking back at Houthi targets for now, despite recent incidents in which U.S. warships in the region shot down Houthi attack drones flying toward the vessels, Politico reported. Some military officers believe the U.S. should mount a more forceful response to the Iran-backed Houthi rebels, but high-level politicians in the administration…
“Mr. President, it is time to tap the brakes on the unrealistic government electric vehicle mandate.” That’s the pointed message a whopping 3,882 automobile dealers from coast to coast sent in a joint open letter to President Joe Biden made public last week. We couldn’t have said it better—or more succinctly—ourselves. The auto dealers’ nine-paragraph letter explains—more…
The House last week moved to repeal an executive order by President Joe Biden that critics say could cause federal employees to violate a law prohibiting partisan politicking on the taxpayers’ dime.

In the future, when I think about the textbook definition of America’s failed pseudo-elite, I’ll think of Education Secretary Miguel Cardona. In a Nov. 8 speech to Western state governors in Wyoming that was unearthed Monday, Cardona delivered this line about delivering technical assistance to states. “As, I think it was President Reagan, said—‘We’re from…
A coalition of nearly 4,000 auto dealers on Tuesday sent a letter to President Joe Biden explaining why his plans to force Americans into electric vehicles are unworkable. The bottom line: Despite subsidies to car manufacturers to make the EVs, and tax credits for drivers to buy the cars, only 7% of new vehicle sales…
FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Getting to the truth of Joe Biden’s use of multiple alias email accounts while he was vice president could take years if Congress waits on the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration to release all of the relevant records it is requesting. However, The Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project has identified what…
President Joe Biden’s recent second meeting with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping failed before it even began. Long before Biden patted the communist dictator on the back Nov. 15 and ushered him into suburban San Francisco’s Filoli estate, his administration’s commitment to “zombie engagement” with China ensured a victory for Xi and the CCP….

Since the founding of the United Nations nearly eight decades ago, the United States has been the largest financier of the organization.

Last year…
When will The New York Times finally stop pulling punches and go after Donald Trump?

"No evidence." "No evidence." "No evidence." That's what they keep saying about corruption investigations into President Joe Biden. But we've been fed this line before. So, what evidence is there? It turns out, there's a lot. Bank records, IRS whistleblowers, text messages, emails, confidential human source reports, and more. It's a lot. So, let's focus…
