Old dog, new tricks: Lessons for Joe Biden amid sky high gas prices

Donald Trump's final year as President was 2020. The average closing price of oil that year was $39.68 a barrel. The year before that it had been 56.99 a barrel. At one point this past week oil was trading as high as $138 a barrel. That's a ridiculously steep increase, a huge hit on every Mom that drives her children to school, to every truck driver delivering food to your local grocery store and to every delivery of all those items Amazon drops on your front doorstep.

Insurrection, Donald Trump and The Joker

What exactly is an insurrection? With January 6 upon us, the word is being bandied about by the mainstream media like a barker selling cotton candy at the county fair.

Omicron has raced ahead of other variants and is now the dominant version of the coronavirus in the U.S., accounting for 73% of new infections last week, federal health officials said Monday.

Omicron variant may be good news

The Omicron variant of COVID-19 is among us and spreading rapidly. Is it time to panic? Is it time to run home and hibernate, donning a face mask and rubber gloves any time one interacts with family? From many of the media reports and from the doom and gloom forecast of President Biden, one would think so. Yet statistics and science tell a different story.

Voting mostly along party lines, the U.S. Senate on March 24, confirmed Levine to be assistant secretary of health.

Transgenderism: It’s time to state the obvious

Dr. Rachel Levine was appointed by President Joe Biden in October as a four-star admiral, the highest-ranking official in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.

The 1833 statue of Jefferson will be removed from the council chamber by the end of the year.

Canceling Thomas Jefferson ignores the facts

The New York Public Design Commission voted unanimously last week to remove a seven-foot-tall statue of the third President of the United States, Thomas Jefferson. The statue, which has called city hall home since 1834 and has been in the New York City Council chambers for more than a century, was specifically intended to honor Mr. Jefferson's writing of the Declaration of Independence, a document that literally changed the world.

Biden’s America headed toward Third World status

Biden's desire to undo any Trump actions took precedent over a respect for the law and common sense. This attitude runs the very real risk of sending Americans spiraling down to a place similar to Ghana.

Hungary official: Easier to deal with the Taliban than the Biden administration

Imagine a world in which people said what they really believed. I don't mean folks rudely disregarding others feelings and inflicting emotional pain and stress intentionally or needlessly, but rather that as part of a civil discussion everyone could dispense with political correctness. People could share their honest thoughts without hemming and hawing or fearing blowback.

In this Sept. 24, 2021 photo, President Joe Biden speaks about the COVID-19 response and vaccinations in the State Dining Room of the White House in Washington. President Joe Biden’s plan for a massive expansion of social programs is being framed by supporters as such a high-stakes endeavor that it’s “too big to fail.” It also may be too big to describe.  A series of crises, from Afghanistan to COVID-19, along with the convoluted legislative process have hampered the White House’s ability to promote the $3.5 trillion package or even say definitively what’s in it. The price tag is sure to shrink and it's possible that components could change. (AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)

Biden paves the way for his own removal

It is commonly accepted - even by the liberal media - that the U.S. exit from Afghanistan was a disaster. Hundreds of Americans were left behind. Thousands of cooperative Afghani partners were abandoned, many likely to be killed by the ruthless Taliban. No one on planet earth points to the American withdrawal as an example of strength or diplomatic precision. The opinion on this is virtually unanimous.

Nancy Pelosi aligns herself with the Satanic Temple

Are you familiar with the word "devout?" It's most commonly used in a phrase like "She was a devout Catholic." As a matter of fact, if you go to the dictionary and look it up, that is the very example that they use.
