White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain walks on the South Lawn of the White House after stepping off Marine One, May 1, 2022, in Washington. President Joe Biden’s chief of staff violated the law by retweeting a political message on his official Twitter account, but no disciplinary action will be pursued and a warning letter was sent to him, according to a memo from the Office of Special Counsel.

Ron Klain can take his ‘one final warning’ and stick it

White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain came out to defend President Biden's speech about so-called threats to American democracy by making this rather astonishing remark: Biden "decided a few days ago that it was important to issue one final warning on this issue." He can stick it.

Evangelicals pivot from abortion to economy

Christians said in a recent Barna survey said their top concern this midterm election season was the economy, not abortion, not religious freedom, not the morality crisis of U.S. culture. And that has some pining about the direction of America's spiritual compass. It's a valid point.

Biden vows ‘cooperation’ with Brazil’s far-left corrupt socialist

President Biden over the weekend sent out a message of congratulations to corrupt, socialist Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva for beating Brazil's incumbent conservative president, Jair Bolsonaro, in a widely watched election. This is how radical America's Democrats have become.

Devil goes down to Georgia

Barack Obama went down to Georgia, looking for some votes for Democrats. Looking for some souls to steal. 'Cause that's how Democrats do. Their principles are nonexistent so they rely on deceit to win. With Mr. Obama, the deceit is his flashy smile.

President Joe Biden speaks at the Volvo Group Powertrain Operations in Hagerstown, Md., Friday, Oct. 7, 2022.

Twitter, like Democrats, poised for massive comeuppance

Elon Musk has taken over Twitter and fired the company's top executives. Democrats are down in the polls -- they "agonize" about their midterm chances, as NBC News put it. President Biden's approval ratings are low, very low. All's beginning to be right with the world.

Coronavirus to climate change: Make way for more lockdowns

A report from scientists in The Lancet finds climate change is "increasingly affecting the foundations of human health and wellbeing" and that if governments don't stop using fossil fuels, people will die, people will die, people will die. It's the reincarnation of COVID-19.

New York court crumbles COVID-19 vaccine mandate walls

New York's Supreme Court has told employers who fired employees for failing to get the COVID-19 shots to reverse course, rehire those workers and -- get this -- give 'em all their backpay. Finally. Sanity is coming back into America. Let more lawsuits flow.

Attorneys general ride to free-market, anti-ESG rescue

Eric Schmitt is helping to lead a 19-state investigation into six U.S. financial firms that are tied to the United Nations' Net-Zero Banking Alliance, a global entity that basically tells businesses to get on board with the radical environmental agenda, or close doors. Yay, Team A.G.

Transgender enablers are cruel, wicked and even criminal

The LGBTQ movement in this nation has rapidly shifted to one of demanding tolerance for utter evil. It's high time to drum out the evil. It's past time to call out the lies for what they are: lies. It's due season to get legislators and courts involved to stop the insanity.

Socialism in America thriving as secularism grows

Youth are being taught a batch of lies: namely, that life is about making a buck, that the path to success should be easy, and that some are born with unfair advantages and therefore, their subsequent successes are unearned. These are all ingredients in the recipe called socialism.

January 6 is not the drop dead Election Day deal Democrats think

Democrats believe that a subpoena to Donald Trump will be the final, dramatic moment voters say, hey, you're right, Dems, we do hate The Donald and we're going to vote against all Republicans this coming November. But nobody cares about January 6. Not really.

Biden does a Humpty Dumpty with ‘slight’ recession remark

President Joe Biden said he didn't think there would be a recession, but if there were, it would be "very slight" -- but not to worry because he doesn't "anticipate" even this slightness of economic slump. Democrats and their equivocations. What's a "slight" recession, anyway?

Democrats and their dirty politics, ‘disgraceful tactics’

GOP Jennifer-Ruth Green is running for Congress against Indiana Democrat Rep. Frank Mrvan. Turns out, she's a survivor of sexual assault. But we wouldn't know that if leftists hadn't perused her military records and, over her pleas for privacy, pushed that bit of info into the public domain.

Democrats do love their culture of death

If abortion is a privacy issue, then all the much more recreational heroin use, prostitution and even, yes, even pedophilia. Wait for it; the logical extension gets you there soon enough.

Face masks make massive inroads with brainwashed college crowd

Only a few colleges are forcing face masks for this fall's return to campus. But it doesn't really matter. Most college kids, according to recently collected data, are voluntarily wearing them anyway. Why? At root: the brainwashing of the past coronavirus years has been successful.
