Joe Biden News

One of the most disturbing concepts in politics is the media elite providing the “first draft of history.” You can test-drive this with a look at ABC’s two-hour, year-end special that aired on Dec. 27. It was mostly about celebrities and athletes and some natural disasters. But when President Joe Biden came up, ABC was…

Then-Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., condemned weakening the Senate’s tradition of extended debate as “an example of the arrogance of power,” a “power grab by the majority party” that would “eviscerate the Senate.” It was 2005, and Republicans held the White House and Congress. Today, with Biden himself in the White House and Democrats the majority…

On his first day in office, President Joe Biden revoked the Keystone XL pipeline permit via Executive Order 13990. With the stroke of a pen, Biden canceled a project that would have boosted U.S. gross domestic product by more than $3 billion, carried 830,000 barrels of oil daily from Canada to the United States, and…

When Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm addressed the National Petroleum Council on Tuesday, she announced that the administration would not impose a ban on crude oil exports in an effort to tamp down gasoline and diesel prices. That was the right move, as doing so would only have created more rigidity in energy markets and exacerbated…

As Americans experience inflation at a rate not felt in four decades, the Biden administration continues to promote a multitrillion-dollar social spending package.  “Our spending is already out of control,” Rep. Bryan Steil, R-Wis., says, adding that “new government spending is only going to exacerbate [inflation] and make it worse.”  In an effort to get…

Throughout the first decade of the 21st century, conservatives in state capitals and in Congress supported a balanced approach of increasing health insurance coverage while granting states flexibility to design sustainable Medicaid programs for low-income residents that include personal responsibility.  States enjoyed broad flexibility to recreate Medicaid programs that reflected what was practicable and achievable. …

President Joe Biden is the kind of man who deliberately would steer his car into a ditch, crawl from the wreckage, and then probe the ditch for criminal conduct. Such nonsense mirrors Biden’s recent instructions to the Federal Trade Commission. Citing “mounting evidence of anti-consumer behavior by oil-and-gas companies,” Biden told the Federal Trade Commission…

When President Joe Biden met Nov. 18 with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada and President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador of Mexico at the White House, the meeting of the so-called “Three Amigos” was the first such North American Leaders’ Summit since 2016. The leaders were expected to discuss a wide array of pressing challenges…

The House on Friday passed a profoundly radical, multitrillion-dollar tax-and-spend package, with all but one Democrat in favor and all Republicans opposed. Though the bill has been given the innocuous-sounding name “Build Back Better,” it would cause tremendous long-term damage to our way of life. More immediately, it would pose a grave threat to our…

It is not often that I read news that leaves even me so dumbfounded that I need to fact check it. Even after my thorough fact check, I had to send the article to my production team to make sure I was not going crazy. Yes, the story in question was, in fact, true. What…

President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ free community college plan will increase costs for both students and taxpayers. Fortunately, the Biden-Harris promise of free community college appears less likely to make it into the final version of the Build Back Better Act, the $3.5 trillion tax-and-spend plan currently under debate in Congress. The…

Rising prices continue to erode Americans’ paychecks, supply chain problems are causing gridlock at U.S. ports, and stores have bare shelves as Christmas approaches. Worse, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg acknowledged that he expects the supply-side issues to persist into next year. Meanwhile, the Biden administration’s top legislative priority—the so-called Build Back Better plan—is a $3.5…
