The story is about an associate commissioner in the bowels of the Social Security administration refusing to do his job because he is part of a mutinous glob of lifer government employees trying to sabotage Trump’s second presidency.
Final passage of Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill likely will come in the fourth month of his second presidency despite majorities in the House and Senate that are so slim they make Twiggy look fat.
Watching the Trump’s Tariff War from afar, I find it hilarious. He has managed in the past week to get the world to accept a 10% tariff on everything while triggering Red China to engage in an actual tariff war that is financially suicidal for the communist regime.
Those who worry about the tariffs and Wall Street’s reaction should remember the song Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera). You know its chorus.
In the battle against government waste and fraud, the New York Times sides with waste and fraud. It corralled Coral (not Carol) Davenport (Smith Collège 1998) from her job of telling the world it will end because of climate change and pressed her to take on the Department of Government Efficiency.
Once upon a time, conservatives prided themselves on being the adults in the room. While the left drowned in a sea of feelings, pronouns, and ever-changing definitions of “truth,” the right stood firm, grounded in logic, facts, and common sense.
ProPublica bills itself as a nonprofit newsroom that investigates abuses of power. But it is a lefty propaganda machine that dumps one-sided pieces into local newspapers.
The Democrats have gotten the band back together again in conducting an information warfare (dezinformatsiya) operation against President Trump.
The departure of Joy Reid from MSNBC, Jimmy Olsen Acosta from CNN, Woodchuck Todd from MSNBC, Norah O’Donnell from CBS and Lester Holt from NBC are ratings driven.

Bill Maher had Peggy Noonan on his show a short time back and surprisingly the subject of President Trump came up. Maher brought up a reporter’s stupid question about going to the site of the DC crash, which was over the Potomac. Maher paraphrased Trump’s answer, “And he went, ‘It’s the water. What do you …
Ah, censorship—America’s favorite unconstitutional tradition, wielded by both political parties whenever it suits their agenda.
President Trump’s return to the White House has split the press. On one side is a propaganda press that wishes to continue merrily chirping whatever the Party Line is today.
Some of these prejudices are so obvious, they make my fingernails itch.
60 years ago, the liberal Supreme Court in 1965 gave the press a License to Lie in the NYT v. Sullivan case in which the Times ran a libelous ad by civil rights activists against police in Birmingham, Alabama. The court said, well, unless NYT meant actual malice, the libel was not a libel.
Journalism in 2024 is nothing like the journalism that existed when I joined the Chicago Tribune in 1970 as a green college graduate.
In recent years, the United States has seen an unprecedented spread of ideological conformity, widely referred to as the “Woke Mind Virus” (WMV).
Newspapers are losing record print circulation, morning and nightly network news shows are hemorrhaging viewers, and cable news outlets are losing audiences at a record rate. So what’s going on?
Looking at what was printed and broadcast, and their previous “insightful” journalism, we need to take a step back and evaluate.
