The city of Houston is once again bracing for another hurricane. Hurricane Beryl has made landfall over Texas as a Category 1 storm. Texans across the state braced for the weather that they have grown accustomed to. The continuous 500-year storms every other year have shocked the city into a place where the residents come […]
Former President Donald Trump did not author a single word of the 900-page document detailing the Heritage Foundation’s so-called Project 2025, but the media are trying to hang it around his neck. While Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise borrows some ideas already proposed by the former president, the campaign of the presumptive Republican nominee […]
You probably wouldn’t know it from headlines of most media outlets, but the recent victories for leftist parties in France and the United Kingdom were not nearly as sweeping as has been portrayed. Yes, the Labour Party won a landslide victory in the U.K., putting the left-wing party in charge of the government for the […]
Facts cannot be racist. But that hasn’t stopped many liberal media figures and Democratic politicians from trying to insist otherwise after one conservative writer dared to point out what we all know about Vice President Kamala Harris: She wouldn’t be where she is now without the movement for DEI, also known as diversity, equity, and […]
One of the wisest truisms in modern American politics comes from former Mississippi Republican Gov. Haley Barbour: “In politics, good gets better, and bad gets worse.” President Joe Biden is getting worse. It wasn’t until his diminishing mental capacity became so undeniable at the first presidential debate in Atlanta that leading Democratic Party elected officials and […]
HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania — Pretty much every elected Democrat in Pennsylvania was out in force on Sunday standing shoulder-to-shoulder with President Joe Biden at different venues as he made his way from Philadelphia to the state capital, starting what his supporters here called his comeback moment. Speaking to campaign volunteers and supporters at a Biden-Harris campaign […]
The Biden administration doggedly has pursued a “net zero” climate-control policy since President Joe Biden’s first day in the Oval Office when he recommitted the country to the Paris Climate Accords. And as anyone who has shopped at grocery stores in the last three years will tell you, it’s been all downhill from there. Biden […]
Imagine if pilots performed safety checks on only 36% of their equipment or a restaurant served 36% of your pizza or Uber arrived 36% of the time. This is what’s happening in hospitals, which ignore government rules on healthcare price transparency a shocking 64% of the time. Too often, patients receive medical bills far above […]
The U.S. budget deficit is expected to increase by nearly $2 trillion this year. President Joe Biden’s policies, including his student debt relief program, are responsible for this rise, but it is Americans who will suffer the consequences. Rising deficits threaten higher interest rates, inflation, and taxes. We cannot afford to stay on this path. […]
During his 2020 presidential campaign, President Joe Biden slammed former President Donald Trump for his protectionist policies, and especially for starting a trade war that raised prices for American consumers while sparking retaliation that hurt American farmers. But since entering office, Biden has done little to reverse the tariff hikes and trade barriers erected by […]
High inflation creates major hardships for American households. Since January 2020, prices have grown at nearly 4% per year, which is double the rate the Federal Reserve targets. The prices we confront most frequently— food, energy, and shelter— have experienced some of the largest spikes. No wonder so many people think the economy is weak. […]
Inflation is the top economic issue for most voters, according to nearly every poll. The dollar has devalued by more than 20% since the pandemic hit, and inflation remains stubbornly high. Mortgages and car payments are less affordable than they were before COVID-19, and not everyone’s paycheck is keeping up with the increased costs. The […]
After decades of lowering its import barriers, U.S. trade policy has careened off course over the past several years. First ushered in by former President Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal, protectionism later kicked into high gear under the Trump administration with new tariffs on solar panels, washing machines, steel, and […]
For the past three and a half years, the U.S. economy has struggled under the economic policies of the Biden administration and congressional Democrats. Increased taxes, spending, deficits, and debt have produced higher prices, lower wages, soaring interest rates, and slower economic growth. For typical American families, the Biden administration’s policies have resulted in lower […]
