Our Divider-in-Chief Has Done It Again

I was semi-fascist before semi-fascism was cool: President Joe Biden called on Democrats Thursday “to vote to literally save democracy once again” — and compared Republican ideology to “semi-fascism” — as he led a kickoff rally and a fundraiser in Maryland 75 days out from the midterm elections. Addressing an overflow crowd of thousands at […]

Why Do Democrats Hate Women?

Florida Democrats had a chance to nominate a “progressive” woman for governor, but instead of Nikki Fried, they chose Charlie Crist — and it wasn’t even close. Crist won by almost a 25-point margin, 59.7% to 35.3% for Fried. Of course, it goes without saying that I loathe Nikki Fried, but I’m a Republican, so […]

Biden’s Illegal Boondoggle Giveaway

It’s not just that Joe Biden’s stroke-of-the-pen student loan giveaway will cost U.S. taxpayers something like $400 billion or more.

Magical Thinking as Economic Policy

“In psychiatry, magical thinking is a disorder of thought content; here it denotes the false belief that one’s thoughts, actions, or words will cause or prevent a specific consequence in some way that defies or circumvents commonly understood laws of causality.” Joe Biden evidently believes that recession can be avoided by pretending there is no […]

Biden Just Had Such Bad Luck, Y’all

As usual, Ace of Spades had the best headline for this: “Doctor” Jill Biden: Joe Biden Had Such Wonderful Plans For the Presidency He Usurped But Darnit, The Actual Task of Governing Keeps Getting In The Way! The First Lady was speaking at a gathering of wealthy Democratic donors at a private mansion on Nantucket […]

Orange Jumpsuit for Hunter Biden?

THE WALLS! ARE! CLOSING IN! Prosecutors may have a case for federal prostitution offenses against Hunter Biden, according to documents, texts and videos that show he spent a staggering $30,000 on escorts in a five-month period. The president’s son wrote checks to a Ukrainian woman whose transactions were red-flagged by banks for suspicious activity, documents […]
