After months of a Democrat blockade of President Donald Trump’s nominees, Republicans in the Senate have gone nuclear. By a vote to 53 to 45 on Thursday afternoon, the Senate voted in favor of what is commonly referred to as the “nuclear option,” the creation of a new Senate rule by a simple majority vote, rather than the two-thirds typically required. The rule that will result from the deployment of the nuclear option will allow the Senate to confirm presidential nominees in batches, rather than one by one. Next week,…

This summer, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation secretly began the process of withdrawing from its longstanding partnership with Arabella Advisors, a central hub of the Left’s dark money network. This news, first reported by The New York Times, may seem irrelevant or esoteric, but it will likely send shockwaves through the political world. The Gates Foundation isn’t just some billionaire’s side hustle—it’s the largest private foundation in the world. The foundation’s endowment stood at $ 77.2 billion at the end of last year, and it spent $ 102.3 billion…

Evil On the Prowl

‘evil, Prowl0 comment

Everything has a political angle now. The Left gets worked up by a jeans ad. The Right gets worked up by Cracker Barrel removing both the cracker and the barrel from their logo. Red and blue, colors on the light spectrum and in nature, are now political. A 23-year-old transgender gunman killing children is political. The prayers offered are maligned as useless. It is all political. My radio show is, when aired live, midday. I intended to talk about the Democrats and crime and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik convincing President…

The House Freedom Caucus has for years been a major force on Capitol Hill, with its members picking frequent policy fights in their push for more fiscally and socially conservative legislation. But as almost a half dozen of its most prominent members seek office back home and away from Congress, those departures will alter the lineup of the caucus, which fought for additional spending cuts in the “big, beautiful bill” and has been the fiscal conservative vanguard for a decade in the House of Representatives. Here’s how the caucus will…

Washington, fears, We'll, Disruption, Disruptive–Why, Antoni0 comment

Washington is flailing. The establishment has gone into full meltdown over one man: Dr. EJ Antoni. Why? Because he’s telling the truth taxpayers already know–America’s economic data system is broken, politicized, and no longer trusted. For decades, the Bureau of Labor Statistics was supposed to be the gold standard of government data. Today, it’s a punchline. Inflation numbers have been gamed. Jobs reports have been massaged. The public doesn’t trust what Washington publishes, and for good reason. When the numbers are wrong, the policies built on them are wrong–and so,…
