One of the memorable scenes in the 1993 movie “Dave” involved the president and first lady walking their dog in front of the cameras and promptly dumping him on staff when they walked into the White House. Having a pet is an easy way to get positive press that “humanizes” any politician, so almost every…

PARK CITY, Utah—President Joe Biden’s no-border policy has detonated an explosion of illegal-alien apprehensions and got-aways at the southern “frontier.” Millions of Americans consider this one of Biden’s biggest failures, surpassed only by his utterly calamitous withdrawal from Afghanistan. However, this fiasco is Biden’s finest hour. After 11 months, Biden’s “border” remains wide open, if…

President Joe Biden is committing the biggest scofflaw since the Chicago cops partnered with Al Capone during Prohibition. Paying lip service to a judicial order to reinstitute the “Remain in Mexico” program to help to stem the flood of illegal migration, while thousands of illegal aliens enter the country every day, the Biden plan for…

President Joe Biden has finished his first year in office with a number of foreign policy tests he has had to confront. The Afghanistan pullout, the situation in Ukraine, and our growing rivalry with China all represent tests the president has had to face. They are tests that Vandenberg Coalition Executive Director Carrie Filipetti and…

The art of deconstructing an argument by refutation and holding a person accountable for previous statements that the person now contradicts was once an honored tradition. It has now mostly gone the way of other traditions in favor of sound bite statements formulated in political party meetings and used to confuse the public. Senate Minority…

Joe Biden campaigned as a moderate elder statesman who could help heal a divided country. The press played up the narrative that Biden put in place a team of professionals and technocrats who would provide real governing expertise as a salve from the chaos of the Trump years. The truth, of course, has been just…

President Joe Biden joined Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and numerous other Democrats this week in a partisan attempt to preemptively delegitimize the 2022 election. Twice, the president was asked by reporters whether voters could trust the electoral system, and twice, the president contended that a fair election was unlikely unless the Senate was…

Former President Donald Trump’s friends and foes alike can agree on this: He fulfilled an astonishing number of promises. During his first year in office, he signed a $1.5 trillion tax rate cut, killed some 1,500 meddlesome regulations, greenlighted the Keystone XL pipeline, scrapped Obamacare’s individual mandate (but not the entire program), curbed southern border…

President Joe Biden finally delivered his “voting rights” speech in Atlanta, telling a crowd: “The next few days, when these bills come to a vote, will mark a turning point in this nation’s history. Will we choose democracy over autocracy, light over shadows, justice over injustice? I know where I stand. I will not yield….

One of the most frustrating things about “fact-checkers” is how they leap on conservative rhetoric against Democrats as “false” or “missing context,” but give Democrats a pass to say the wildest, nastiest things about conservatives. For example, PolitiFact pounced on then-Sen. David Perdue, R-Ga., as a “Pants on Fire” liar for calling his opponent, Democrat…

Vulgar. Disgusting. Repugnant. These are three of the more charitable adjectives that describe President Joe Biden’s execrable speech on Tuesday. He flew to Atlanta to promote so-called “voting rights” legislation that would nationalize state election laws and codify many of the dangerous measures that “temporarily” loosened ballot security in 2020, as COVID-19 terrorized America. Biden…

Can President Joe Biden order your employer to make sure you are sterilized? Or can he order your employer to make sure you have been vaccinated for COVID-19? The first question here focuses on a hypothetical. The second does not. John Holdren, who served with Biden in the Obama administration (where he was director of…

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…
