The merger of Discovery Inc. with CNN’s parent company, Warner Media, this spring left people wondering what changes were in store for the network’s “talent” roster. Well, guess what?
Despite a July Commerce Department report showing a second consecutive quarter of negative GDP growth, the classic definition of a recession, Biden administration officials insisted that continued strength in employment data proves otherwise. The jobs numbers have most certainly been strong. Earlier this month, the Labor Department reported that 528,000 jobs were added to the economy …
Most politicians exaggerate. And some even tell outright lies. Throughout the course of his long political career, President Joe Biden has been extremely prone to both. But in remarks delivered during the White House signing ceremony for the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 earlier this month, he told such a whopper that he earned “four …
On March 23, 2010, then-President Barack Obama signed the Affordable Care Act into law. Getting there was a bit of a rollercoaster given the makeup of the Senate at the time. Although Democrats controlled the House by a wide margin in January 2009, the party was still one seat short of the 60-vote threshold necessary …
President Joe Biden took a few hours between vacations on Tuesday to sign the ironically named “Inflation Reduction Act,” a boondoggle of a bill that analysts agree will not reduce inflation. It will, however, raise taxes on the middle class and subsidize green energy programs. The bill will also dramatically expand the scope and size of …
Germany’s headlong leap into green energy has come back to bite them. Their windmills and solar panels won’t keep them warm this winter and Putin is more than happy to tighten the flow of energy. And it gets cold in Germany. On Friday, The Ansbach Hometown Herald, a newspaper serving military families stationed at the …
In August 2019, a whistleblower filed an anonymous complaint with then-Inspector General of the Intelligence Community Michael Atkinson. His friend, who was later determined to be then-National Security Council Director for European Affairs Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman had informed him about a phone call between then-President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that had deeply …
Pennsylvania Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman held his first campaign rally since being sidelined by a stroke in mid-May on Friday in Erie, Pennsylvania. Fetterman, the state’s lieutenant governor, faces Republican nominee Dr. Mehmet Oz in the race for the open seat currently occupied by Republican Sen. Pat Toomey, who is retiring. Democrats consider this …
Moments before novelist Salman Rushdie was to deliver a lecture on Friday at the Chautauqua Institution in western New York, a man rushed the stage and stabbed him repeatedly before he was subdued. Rushdie was immediately airlifted to a hospital for surgery. According to a Friday evening email to The Associated Press from his agent, Andrew …
Against all odds, the fundamental transformation of the United States, envisioned by former President Barack Obama and implemented by his equally radical attorney general, Eric Holder, has come to pass. Typically a quiet time in our nation’s capital, seismic events in the past two weeks have combined to complete the metamorphosis. Sadly, America can no …
In a brief statement at the Department of Justice on Thursday afternoon, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced he had personally signed off on the FBI’s request to seek a warrant to search Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump’s Palm Beach, Florida, estate. He also revealed the DOJ had filed a court motion to unseal the search …
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley was appointed by former President Donald Trump in 2019 and remains in office under President Joe Biden. In a recently published excerpt from her forthcoming book, “The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021,” New Yorker writer Susan Glasser recounts Milley’s service during the Trump …
“Unprecedented,” “banana republic,” and “third world bullsh**” were among the words uttered by outraged supporters of former President Donald Trump to describe the FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago, his Palm Beach, Florida, estate. As details begin to trickle out, it’s becoming clear that Monday’s action was a political hit job ordered by officials at the highest …
Outrage was the word of the night among Trump supporters and even ordinary Americans on Monday after news of the FBI’s raid on former President Donald Trump’s Palm Beach, Florida home broke. The unprecedented invasion of Mar-a-Lago by upward of 30 FBI agents put a quick end to Republicans’ consternation over the Senate’s passage of the …
On Friday, the Labor Department reported that 528,000 jobs had been added to the economy in July, more than double the 258,000 economists had been expecting. We also learned the unemployment rate had ticked down to 3.5%. Coming on the heels of the prior week’s Commerce Department report that showed the economy had contracted at …
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz wowed the crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference in his home state of Texas on Friday. He took on everything from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan to the future of the Republican Party, and often in hilarious fashion. Ridiculing the toxic wokeness that has permeated American universities, Cruz …
In the days since President Joe Biden announced that al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri had been killed by a CIA drone strike, much ink has been spilled about his life and his spectacular death. Much of the debate has focused on the effectiveness, or lack thereof, of U.S. over-the-horizon counterterrorism capabilities. Conspicuously missing from Biden’s primetime address on Monday night …
President Joe Biden just keeps on making us proud. Speaking virtually with General Motors CEO Mary Barra on Thursday, Biden referred to himself as “vice president.” Although he immediately caught his error, the damage had been done. In the clip below, he tells the group, “I must admit, in total disclosure, I’ve spoken to the …
Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri actually made himself a relatively soft target for the CIA. Obviously feeling safe inside the Taliban-ruled country, his daily habits, particularly his fondness for spending time on his balcony, became quite easy to predict. At 6:18 a.m. local time on Sunday, as the terrorist sat on the balcony of his …
Don’t get me wrong. I’m delighted that Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri is dead. And happier still that President Joe Biden, given his well-known opposition to the May 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden, authorized the operation. While it’s always good to take out a terrorist leader, the White House is characterizing the strike …
