The new Republican leadership in Virginia — Gov. Glenn Youngkin, Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears, and Attorney General Jason Miyares — went scorched earth upon entering office, which officially happened Saturday.

The FBI and Associated Press were slammed Saturday over a bizarre tweet from the AP addressing the hostage situation at the Congregation Beth Israel synagogue in the Dallas-Fort Worth area on Saturday. What did the FBI say? After law enforcement announced the hostage-taker’s death, the FBI seemingly downplayed the religious aspect of the crime. “BREAKING:

Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) grilled Fauci on Tuesday during a Senate committee hearing.
Four years ago this week, CBS managed to question the mental fitness of two Republican presidents, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump, in one show. Almost four years later, the same network would only gingerly, mildly bring up the topic with Joe Biden. On January 12, 2018, then-CBS This Morning co-host Norah O’Donnell pushed veteran CBS
(Natural News) The world’s most powerful governments are spreading the same lies regarding the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), its effects and how to mitigate it. According to journalist Ben Armstrong of the New American, this is a coordinated effort to sow fear so that they can gain more power and control over people. Thinking on the same line as Armstrong
The people who voted for Joe Biden are not happy. It has been almost a year since he was sworn in and he has little to show for his presidency. His supporters have even less. Anyone who has paid attention to American politics over the years could have told Biden supporters to be prepared for

Students in Chicago staged a walkout on Friday to demand safer school conditions during the surge of COVID-19 cases. The students also participated in a crowded protest where they made demands for remote learning, laptops, and COVID-19 relief stipends.

On Saturday afternoon, CNN fill-in host Jessica Dean provided an enthusiastic forum for Rolling Stone contributing editor Jeff Goodell to promote his article trashing moderate Democratic Senator Joe Manchin as a “grifter” who is corrupted by the coal industry. Manchin might as well be a Republican. Leftists like Goodell can’t see any positive motivation for opposing
You may have heard two different stories about omicron. The doctor who discovered it in South Africa said it’s a mild flu and few, if any, will die of it. Then you heard our supposedly elected president tell us recalcitrant rednecks that not getting vaccinated would result in a “winter of severe illness and death.”
(Erin Scott/Reuters) Sean Trende at RealClearPolitics takes a first look at how Joe Biden’s grisly approval rating (41.6 percent at this writing) bodes for Senate Democrats: At 42%, the model envisions virtually no chance for Democrats to hold the Senate and predicts a loss of four seats as the most likely outcome. At 42%, the Colorado

Comedians often take their cues from the Democrats and news outlets (but we repeat ourselves). Not Ryan Long. He’s part of a small band of satirists who tell jokes based on reality, not what corrupt reporters say. It’s one reason he’s a rising star outside the Hollywood mainstream, and there’s little reason for that to
Congressional Democrats are gazing into their crystal balls, and they don’t like what they see. In fact, they’re terrified at the genuine red wave building across the country that threatens to swamp a record number of them in November’s midterms. Joe Biden’s presidency resembles a bombed-out building. None of his major agenda items — climate
A span of highway on the Skagit River, May 2013. (Cliff DesPeaux / Reuters) I have been warning the green warriors that “nature rights” will someday come back to bite reneweable energy projects. For example, electricity-generating windmills kill millions of birds and bats. If these animals have the “inalienable right to exist, flourish, regenerate, and
Writing for AIER, Robert Wright explores “The Government Scientific Agency Oxymoron.” Wright’s key observation: “Government bureaucracies cannot ‘do’ science because their incentives are all wrong. Science flourishes only in a competitive environment.” Correct. Government can, however, subvert science. That’s an ugly history, from Lysenko to Fauci. Read the whole thing.
Stratis Morfogen, owner of several popular New York City restaurants, is refusing to comply with COVID-19 vaccine mandates — and, in an interview on Thursday, challenged Gov.

Kyrsten Sinema declared that she would never vote with her party to end the Senate’s 60-vote filibuster requirement, his Build Back Better and
Well this takes the cake. Over there at CNN’s web site, journalist and author Jill Filipovic’s seriously projectionist rant accusing House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy and his fellow Republicans of seeking to “undermine” American democracy when it is “at its most fragile in generations.” Uh-huh. The specific cause of Filipo’s wrath is that in the
There are all kinds of celebrities out there, and the public generally expects them to be good at what they do: that skill that makes them famous. We want actors and actresses to entertain us, comedians to make us laugh, athletes to play hard, etc. But for several years now, celebrities seem to be using
