Chicago voters appear to have voted down a ballot initiative called “Bring Chicago Home,” 54%-46% with 96% reporting. The proposal, backed by Mayor Brandon Johnson, […]
For all that investors flipped, flopped, and flipped again in the past six months of speculation over future interest rates, the Federal Reserve has remained remarkably consistent.

Donald Trump’s anodyne if overexcited comment that the U.S. auto industry would face a “bloodbath” if he’s not elected and doesn’t impose 50% or 100% tariffs on cars produced predictable results. “Don’t outsmart yourself,” Sen.

With a renewed focus being placed on President Joe Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal, it bears repeating that Biden held no one accountable for it, including himself.

Bill Maher came this close to understanding Christianity during the most recent episode of his show Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO.

More than half a decade after Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh became the second of three Supreme Court justices appointed by former President Donald Trump, Christine Blasey Ford has reemerged from the wilderness of #Resistance-era one-hit wonders.
