In an era where action was desperately needed, our elected officials chose to perfect the ancient craft of doing absolutely nothing. Bravo! Let’s start with the numbers, shall […]

Gary Varvel / Creators.comWell, it’s official. Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States, has passed away at the ripe old age of 100. A centenarian!

Steve Heap / shutterstock.comIn a move that should surprise absolutely no one paying attention, the Supreme Court has declined to review Texas’s age-based mail-in voting restrictions, effectively allowing the law to stand as is. For those unfamiliar with the specifics, Texas law permits only individuals aged 65 and older to vote by mail without a qualifying excuse, such […]

Soho A Studio / shutterstock.comThe FDA is at it again, swooping in to save us from ourselves with a shiny new definition of what qualifies as “healthy.” The agency seems to think Americans can’t grasp that salmon is a healthier choice than sugary cereal. It’s like they imagine us aimlessly picking up white bread and cartoon-covered yogurt, completely lost […]

Ground Picture / shutterstock.comYou’ve got to hand it to the Democrats—they’ll stop at nothing to cling to their bloated spending bills, even if it means weaponizing pediatric cancer research. Let’s talk about the hypocrisy here: earlier this year, Republicans in the House passed H.R. 3391, a bill focused on funding research into devastating pediatric diseases like childhood cancer. […]

Vicki L. Miller / shutterstock.comAh, Christmas carols. Those delightful tunes that make even the grouchiest among us tap their feet and hum along.

For many small farmers, this isn’t […]

J.M. Image Factory / shutterstock.comOh, look, more attempts at playing hide-and-seek with taxpayer dollars. Democratic lawmakers are now in full damage-control mode, trying to derail a federal watchdog investigation into the Biden administration’s $400 billion green energy loan program. And why? Because this long-running probe seems to be uncovering some less-than-flattering truths about how the Loan Programs Office is […]

Well, isn’t this rich? Two Democratic women from Virginia who rode the so-called “blue wave” to Congress in 2018 are now packing up and heading home, just as the political tides are turning.

So, it turns out that U.S. officials have been quietly chatting with the Syrian rebel group that just ousted President Bashar al-Assad.

[…]

sweet_tomato / shutterstock.comYou’ve got to hand it to China. When the chips are down, and their economy is looking shakier than a Jenga tower in a windstorm, Beijing doesn’t sweat it—they just print more money and call it a strategy. In the latest round of economic acrobatics, China has ramped up its stimulus drive, signaling to the […]

Happy Stock Photo / shutterstock.comAnother day, another bomb threat targeting a sitting member of Congress.

Steve Sanchez Photos / shutterstock.comWell, it seems justice has prevailed—or at least dodged the usual political spin. Daniel Penny, the Marine who stepped in during a violent subway altercation, has been found not guilty. But the story doesn’t end there.
