Column: Who Sounds Silly Lecturing Conservatives About Authoritarians?

January 5th, 2024 6:04 AM

Biden and his media enablers clearly think they can acquire the votes of people disgusted by Trump’s stubborn refusal to concede defeat in 2020 by just citing “democracy” as the all-encompassing issue that cancels all focus on their failures, from inflation to immigration.

Trump, Biden and a Fight for the Heart

January 4th, 2024 6:02 PM

As an election year dawns, Republicans and Democrats should stop to reflect on why our politics seems so stagnant.
