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.
Editor’s note: This is a lightly edited transcript of the accompanying video from professor Peter St. Onge. The media’s beloved strong Biden economy is a lie, and Reagan adviser David Stockman has the receipts. In recent videos I’ve talked about how the blockbuster economic statistics we’re being spoon-fed is manipulated to irrelevance: In a recent…
Republican governors clean up President Joe Biden’s mess in both disaster recovery and the longshoremen’s port strike; the world still doesn’t care what the unelected wife of the president thinks; and scammers are just as annoying as ever. On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we give you the tools you need to…
On Monday, nearly 50,000 workers at 36 ports with the International Longshoremen’s Association began striking, the latest failure of Biden-Harris economic policies. The workers are demanding higher pay, a backlash against the record 20% cumulative inflation under the failed leadership of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. This strike could have major inflationary…
Kamala Harris traveled to Arizona to visit the southern border on a campaign trip on Friday—a trip House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green described as “little more than the arsonist returning to the scene of the fire.” “This issue [immigration] cannot be reduced to a political issue,” Vice President Harris declared in 2021…
In the wake of a catastrophic disaster, effective leadership and a rapid, coordinated response are critical to mitigating the impacts and restoring public confidence. That’s not what is happening. The aftermath of Hurricane Helene, which made landfall as a Category 4 storm and caused catastrophic flooding in North Carolina, has revealed significant gaps in the…
The Biden-Harris Justice Department is suing Alabama for removing more than 3,000 noncitizens from voter rolls just weeks after a coalition of left-leaning groups—including the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center—filed a similar lawsuit. Alabama is far from a battleground state, but the Justice Department’s move could have national consequences by setting a legal precedent for…
The U.S. Department of Education had millions of phone calls from families to its call center go unanswered and had technical glitches plague its student-aid application processing. Nearly 75% of calls seeking help went unanswered more than five months, and understaffed call-center representatives told families to “try again later” in what was part of a…
FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have repeatedly supported "gender-affirming care" for "transgender" minors, but the National Institutes of Health has approved multiple research grants acknowledging there is "scant evidence" to support the idea that experimental medical interventions improve the lives of children who identify as the opposite sex….
On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we cast our lots on the key determining factor of every American presidential contest: Which candidate is going to make a mistake in the final stretch that costs him or her the election? Who is going to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with under…
It’s Climate Week at the United Nations in New York, and the U.N. General Assembly on Sunday voted to phase out fossil fuels, at the same time abandoning its sustainable development goals of eliminating poverty and hunger. That’s because no nation has ever eliminated poverty and hunger without fossil fuels. Vice President Kamala Harris hasn’t…
TV icon Oprah Winfrey lent her star power to Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, but sadly their segment on the story of Amber Nicole Thurman shows Harris is anti-science and refuses to take responsibility for the failures of the Biden-Harris Food and Drug Administration’s lax abortion-drug policies, which harm women. Thurman—whose case Harris also highlighted…
Last week, I looked at the effects of the Biden-Harris administration’s border policy on crime and jobs. This week, I want to look at its increasingly devastating effect on public housing and public services and how that affects everyday Americans. Since January 2021, the administration has used a variety of quasi-legal fudges to treat millions…
If there’s one axiom, we all know about Washington, D.C., is that it’s full of well-intentioned policies and unintended (read: harmful) consequences. A recent reminder of unintended policy consequences is the so-called Inflation Reduction Act. The IRA was passed in August 2022, and according to its champions in Congress and the White House, it was…
To sum up the Biden-Harris administration’s border policies in a phrase, I’d say “America Last.” Over nearly four years, we have seen the results of an unprecedented experiment: What happens when a first world country abandons its legal limits and processes on immigration and allows nearly unlimited, unvetted migration? This is effectively what the Biden-Harris…
White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby wrote Wednesday that there is “no use responding” to a “handful of vets” involved in the Afghanistan withdrawal debacle. Fox News obtained an email sent with that message by Kirby on the anniversary of 9/11 as a “reply all” likely meant for his staffers. “Clearly, I didn’t…
DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—The Biden Department of Justice dropped nearly half of pending obstruction charges against Jan. 6 defendants since the Supreme Court issued a major ruling in June, according to recent data. The Supreme Court ruled in June that in charging Jan. 6 defendants, the DOJ had interpreted too broadly a statute that carries up to 20 years…
DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Hunter Biden pleaded guilty Thursday to federal tax charges in California, according to multiple reports. President Joe Biden’s son pleaded guilty to each of six misdemeanor and three felony counts he faced for allegedly failing to pay at least $1.4 million in taxes and filing falsified tax paperwork, according to CNN. Judge Mark Scarsi…
DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—President Joe Biden touted offshore wind’s “progress” on his watch on Thursday despite the fact that the industry has struggled considerably with elevated inflation and interest rates. Biden released an official statement Thursday celebrating his administration’s 10th approval of an offshore wind development and touting signature policies that have incentivized developers to build new projects….
If you’ve had to change your buying habits at the supermarket lately to save money, you’re not alone. The stratospheric rise in food prices in the past three years has forced many families to forgo groceries they used to enjoy in exchange for cheaper alternatives. This change in consumer behavior is emblematic of the painful…
In the run-up to November’s election, Vice President Kamala Harris is attempting to rewrite history and absolve herself of her administration’s policy of facilitating mass illegal migration into the U.S. through reckless releases of aliens caught at the border and bogus alien “parole” programs. Against much existing evidence, a new ad her campaign is running…
