Economy

Americans struggling to pay bills? Record credit card debt? High grocery prices? Higher cost of living? No problem! A Washington Post columnist is idiotically claiming Americans are better off economically than they were four years ago. 

For all the media brouhaha about the supposed strength of the Biden-Harris administration’s jobs market, NBC’s flagship evening news show didn’t even bother to report on the "worst"  jobs report in years released just before Election Day. 

Sixty years ago this week, Ronald Reagan delivered a speech in support of Barry Goldwater’s presidential bid. It was dubbed “A Time for Choosing.” Re-reading the speech, or watching it on YouTube, is a reminder how little has changed in six decades. Some of the issues debated in 1964 are still being argued and unresolved today. On taxes and spending, Reagan noted: “Thirty-seven cents out of…

ABC’s Good Morning America projected an image of confidence Monday on behalf of Vice President Kamala Harris, cheering her strategy of “end[ing] on a positive note” and “hoping to turn out every last voter by convincing them that she’s the candidate who can turn the page” while Donald Trump has hurled “violent and dark rhetoric” catering only to “angry young men.”

This week, I had the pleasure of sitting down for a cordial debate with Sam Harris, host of the “Making Sense” podcast, to discuss the question of the hour: Trump vs. Harris. The conversation was moderated by Bari Weiss of The Free Press. Sam is, of course, an incredibly intelligent person; he’s also a person with a core set of values. He freely acknowledged his own discomfort with many of…

Spanish-speaking media are very much part and parcel of the Regime Media. Proof evident of that is a recent panel exchange on Univision’s Sunday public affairs show Al Punto, where one of the anchors literally bemoaned the fact that voters don’t read The Economist before weighing in on the economy.

The Fraser Institute in Vancouver, Canada, just published, for 2024, its annual Economic Freedom of the World Report. There are many ideas about what freedom means. Economic freedom, which the Fraser Institute focuses on, is of key and central importance. It is about the extent to which individuals have control of their economic life.

CNN hosted Vice President Kamala Harris on what had been originally proposed as a debate that was rejected by former President Donald Trump. With the floor to herself, would Harris sink or swim? Would host Anderson Cooper try to tip the scale? And would CNN allow some Democrat ringers to slip through the cracks? We watched so you wouldn’t have to.

ABC’s Good Morning America illustrated all anyone needed to know Thursday about what it made of Vice President Kamala Harris’s Wednesday night throwdown with Fox News host Bret Baier by the fact that it spent far less time (three minutes and two seconds) on this than they did browbeating former President Trump (four minutes and 11 seconds) over their preferred topics for this election…

So, former President Barack Obama tells “the brothers” to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris because she’s a black woman -- and women have “been getting our backs this entire time.” Obama said: “My understanding, based on reports I’m getting from campaigns and communities, is that we have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters of our neighborhoods and communities…

How far does your head need to be buried in the sand to convince yourself that Bidenomics has been absolved of all the disaster it wrought on the U.S. economy? Only New York Times economics pseudo-savant Paul Krugman appears to know.

According to documents exclusively obtained by NewsBusters, the Chilean Salmon Council is accusing The New York Times of publishing an article that was paid for, sourced, and written by a web of left-leaning environmental activist groups and journalists. The accusations have so far led to an on-going internal investigation at the so-called “paper of record.”

Politico managed to make itself the butt of a really bad joke when it made a desperate attempt to prop up Vice President Kamala Harris by selling Bidenomics as the best thing since sliced bread before the November election.

ABC’s Good Morning America co-host, NFL on Fox co-host, and former NFL player Michael Strahan should never be placed anywhere near a hypothetical pantheon of esteemed journalists. But, in welcome contrast to his softball sit-down with Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, Strahan absolutely barbequed Democratic vice presidential candidate and Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) on Friday over what he…
