Hey, Washington: Keep Your Hands Off the Internet!
Everyone these days -- on both sides of the political spectrum -- seems to want the feds to regulate internet access, prices and online content. They want the Federal Communications Commission to be the referee in terms of who gets connected to the internet and what can and can't be said.
But three recent events highlight why this is a ...Read more
RFK Jr. Hasn't Left the Democratic Party So Much As It's Left Him!
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s exit from the Democratic Party (or was he booted out?) is only the latest sign that there are no more JFK Democrats left in positions of power in the Democratic Party.
President John F. Kennedy was a staunch anti-communist who fought against union and government corruption. He was a pro-life Catholic. He was laser-...Read more
Biden-Harris Have a Sixth Sense the Economy Is in Trouble -- They're Probably Right
Democrats and the media are in a quandary to explain why Americans so underappreciate all that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have done for the economy. Or, should I say, TO the economy.
They act as if these are the salad days for American families, with inflation falling and jobs aplenty. For now.
So why are Americans so...Read more
Natural Gas Is Now Cheaper Than Water!
Among the great mythologies of recent years, one stands out above the rest, is that the world is in a "great energy transition." Actually, the world IS in a dramatic energy transition. But it isn't the one the Left wants it to be.
Despite hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars thrown at wind and solar power, we still get less than 10% of our ...Read more
Just Who Is the Real Middle-Class President?
President Joe Biden talked incessantly about his "from the middle class out" economic strategy. Given his record, it would have been more accurate to call it the "middle class down and out" plan. Inflation has eroded away any income gains under Biden's presidency.
Now Vice President Kamala Harris has her own riff on this theme. Her campaign ...Read more
Biden's Rent Control Schemes Will Backfire on Renters -- They Always Do!
It's clear why President Joe Biden desperately wants to bring down housing prices and rent. With mortgage interest rates double what they were when former President Donald Trump took office, mortgage payments have roughly doubled since 2020, and rents are up in many cities by more than 30%.
So much for the dream of homeownership. And just ...Read more
Where Does Joe Biden Rank Among America's Worst Presidents?
President Joe Biden's time in the White House is mercifully coming to an end. He's now officially a lame duck with six months to go.
Biden was a victim here of a corrupt Democratic machine (with a complicit media) that thought it could pull off a grand election-year deceit despite Biden's failing cognitive abilities. The establishment and a ...Read more
The Case for Draining the Swamp Is Stronger Than Ever
The latest official employment report finds once again that the federal government and state-local hiring spree is still in full gear. Over the past year, health care and government hiring has outpaced every private sector industry. It isn't just the IRS bringing on thousands of new workers. The bloat is everywhere.
So even though there are a ...Read more
Climate Fanatics Have Declared War on Livestock; So Enjoy Your Burgers While You Can!
Enjoy your cheeseburgers and steaks when you fire up the grill this Fourth of July weekend, because they may not be available much longer.
That's because the climate fanatics have declared war on livestock. Turns out the biggest planet killers are apparently cows. That's the only logical takeaway from a recent CNN headline that informs us that ...Read more
Climate Change Movement Goes to Court -- Will Judges Ban Fossil Fuels?
Things aren't going well at all for the global warming crusaders. Despite hundreds of billions of tax dollars spent on green energy over the past decade, the world and America used more fossil fuels than ever before in history last year.
The electric vehicle movement is stalled out, solar and wind power are both still fringe forms of energy, ...Read more
Some 40 Years Later Teachers Unions Continue to Hold Our Children Hostage!
School's out for the summer, so now it is time to examine the state of our education system.
By any objective measure, our school performance is fair or poor for most children. Math scores hit a 20-year low. ACT scores dropped to a 30-year low last year. In dozens of schools throughout the country, not one child is reading or practicing math at...Read more
Biden Housing Scheme Could Ignite Another 2008 Mortgage Crisis!
Politicians in Washington have very short memories, so they repeat the same mistakes over and over.
It was only 17 years ago that the "subprime" mortgage crisis torpedoed the economy and sent the financial markets into the biggest tailspin since the Great Depression. Millions of Americans lost their jobs. One of the matches that lit that ...Read more
