Another wrinkle has been introduced into the short, tortured existence of President Joe Biden’s student debt cancellation plan. On Friday, the U.S. Government Accountability Office issued an opinion stating that the Biden administration’s student loan cancellation is not in effect because it’s a rule that “substantially impact[s] the rights and obligations” of private parties, and…
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis thinks he would beat President Joe Biden if he ran against him in 2024, the governor revealed in an interview with Piers Morgan. DeSantis definitively addressed 2024 when he told Morgan: “If I were to run … I’m running against Biden.” “Like, we are competing for the Republican, potentially, I get…
President Joe Biden signed into law on Monday a Republican-led bill that declassifies intelligence about the COVID-19 origins. “Today, I am pleased to sign into law S. 619, the ‘COVID-19 Origin Act of 2023.’ I share the Congress’s goal of releasing as much information as possible about the origin of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19),” Biden said…
As expected, the Biden administration has started using its port parole program shell game to feign “lawfulness” and distract from the true numbers of illegal aliens entering the U.S. each month. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on Wednesday reported the lowest number of southwest land border encounters since January 2022. Taken at face value, that…
Natural gas is coming under fire. Again. Localities across the U.S. are pursuing bans on natural gas appliances under the banner of fighting climate change and meeting the Biden administration’s lofty aspirations of net-zero emissions. Most recently, the San Francisco Bay Area Air Quality Management District voted to adopt new rules that phase out certain…
President Joe Biden’s $7 trillion tax-and-spending plan would boost pay for federal bureaucrats by 5.2%, their highest raise in decades and more than private sector employees have gotten. The proposed 5.2% hike for government workers contrasts with private sector employees, who earned an average pay raise of 4.4% from February 2022 through February 2023, according…
Gender ideology preys upon the young, convincing girls and boys that they were “born in the wrong body” and rushing them onto experimental drugs, hormones, and surgeries that will leave them stunted, scarred, and infertile. Yet the ostensible Catholic who currently occupies the Oval Office not only supports this horror but had the gall to…
In 2021, Todd Bensman stood on the edge of the Rio Grande river with a member of a drug cartel. Despite usually trying to avoid the cartels, Bensman found himself interviewing the man, who happened to be on vacation after guiding a group of illegal aliens into Texas. “He had his cocaine. He had a…
WARNING: This article contains graphic content. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, fired back Tuesday at President Joe Biden after the president defended transgender surgeries and procedures for children. “It is not ‘sinful’ to prohibit the mutilation of minors,” DeSantis said in a Tuesday morning tweet. “It is not acceptable for the federal government to…
The consumer price index, a key measure of inflation, rose 0.4% in February, up 6% from February 2022, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Tuesday. An economist connected this persistent inflation and the crisis surrounding Silicon Valley Bank to the Biden administration's policies. "Over the past week, we have witnessed more fallout from…
The “rich people” with money in Silicon Valley Bank are the real winners in President Joe Biden’s handling of the California-based bank’s collapse, economist Peter St Onge says. After the fall of Silicon Valley Bank over the weekend, the Biden administration announced that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. will cover all depositors’ money there. Normally,…
It’s clear that America is increasingly less secure under President Joe Biden based on the jaw-dropping testimony of senior U.S. intelligence and law enforcement officials Wednesday during a hearing on “Worldwide Threats” before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. Here are just a few frightening highlights—and an analysis—of the unclassified testimony from the director of…
OXON HILL, Md.—Top Republican state election officials are opposing President Joe Biden’s executive order putting the power of the federal government behind voter turnout efforts. “As a group, the Republican secretaries of state have been vocally opposing this,” Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, vice chairman of the Republican Secretaries of State Committee, told The…
The easiest layup in proving the “mainstream media” is hyperpartisan is to study how they cover congressional hearings. After two years of obsessive media promotion and congratulation and live coverage of the Pelosi-picked panel on Jan. 6, the network “newscasts” can’t locate a hearing now with two hands. On March 1, the Senate Judiciary Committee…
OXON HILL, Md. – Rep. Dan Bishop, R-N.C., is weighing in on which Biden administration officials, in addition to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, he thinks have engaged in questionable activity worth investigating and why. “The thing about Secretary Mayorkas, first, is that he’s just utterly flouted American immigration law,” Bishop, a member of the…
In 2019, the Trump administration issued a regulation empowering the Department of Health and Human Services to robustly enforce federal conscience-protection laws. But now, the Biden administration is proposing to gut those rules, which would ultimately leave people more vulnerable to being forced to participate in controversial procedures that violate their conscience. Here’s what you…
A Republican senator says a Biden administration rule “plays politics with Americans’ retirement savings,” even as some Democrats push legislation seeking to codify that same Labor Department rule into law. President Joe Biden’s environmental, social, and governance rule would allow “fiduciaries to select a fund with a lower rate of return if it supports a progressive…
The so-called fact-checkers are energetic defenders of President Joe Biden—almost like they’re his siblings or his nephews. No cockeyed critique of Biden is silly enough for them to forgo the urgent need to “check.” They’re perpetually poised to pounce! PolitiFact gave us two examples on Feb. 10. Both were “Pants On Fire” warnings, but only…
Every few days, it seems the U.S. military shoots down another unexplained object drifting over our airspace—and at least one was a Chinese spy balloon. These incidents are also coming on the first anniversary of the war in Ukraine, the most destructive fighting in Europe since World War II. Surely, at this critical juncture, the…
First of three articles on wildlife trends in America. Decades-long mantras about “vanishing habitat” and ever-growing threats to wildlife have long been used to justify locking up more land through federal ownership or other restrictive measures. The perfect example is the Biden administration’s proposal to conserve 30% of the nation by 2030—aka “30 by 30.”…
