National Debt

Prior to the weekend, more Hunter Biden headlines, and Monday’s media tsunami regarding Tucker Carlson and Don Lemon, there was Friday’s White House press briefing and it began with a rant from White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre ghoulishly claiming House Republicans want to “fill our cities with smog,” “give asthma to our children,” and allow oil companies to use chemicals that…

Another day, another sub-par performance from the incompetent Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre (KJP) during Thursday's White House press briefing in which Jean-Pierre struggled through basic questions ranging from the recent IRS whistleblower in the Hunter Biden tax fraud investigation to the looming fight over the debt ceiling. Each time, KJP mumbled her way through the briefing. Even her…

Everywhere one looks these days it appears services and products cost more but deliver less than they once did. That seems especially true when it comes to the federal government. President Biden wants to raise taxes again. Unlikely, given the Republican House majority, but this Tax Day offers us our annual opportunity to explore what we are getting in exchange for what we’re paying Washington…

Instead of making government over-spending an issue, the news media have relentlessly pushed for even more of the nation’s wealth to be handed over to the federal government to spend.

Thirteen years ago this week, the liberal media celebrated the final passage of the Affordable Care Act, aka “ObamaCare,” President Barack Obama’s big government answer to the millions of Americans without health insurance. Passage came after a year of media cheerleading, as journalists trumpeted the alleged benefits of Obama’s plan and denigrated conservative critics as racists or terrorists…

Sure, President Joe Biden unilaterally canceling student loan debt without Congressional approval is probably illegal, but whatever. At least, that’s the argument The Washington Post editors are running with.

Newsweek exploited U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ past struggle with student loan debt to make his skepticism of President Joe Biden’s humongous student loan debt forgiveness plan seem hypocritical.

The ever-inept White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre joined MSNBC on Sunday morning for a softball sit-down with leftist Sunday Show host Jonathan Capehart where, despite his gentle questions, Jean-Pierre still struggled to use complete sentences and even made up a new name for Canada.

We’ve heard it all before. In fact, a recording of last year’s State of the Union could have been replayed, saving President Biden a trip to Capitol Hill. Numbers can be selectively used to hide reality and advance one’s political agenda. Both parties do this, but Democrats and their media allies do it better. It’s important to go beyond the claims of success. For example, at the time of Biden…

Have legitimate concerns about the national debt? Well, you may just be one of those GOP “economic terrorists,” according to New York Times bloviator-in-chief Paul Krugman.

ABC & CBS were in full meltdown mode on Thursday evening as their flagship evening newscasts ABC's World News Tonight and CBS Evening News acted like the end of the world was upon us if the U.S. debt ceiling isn't raised without spending cuts, and focused their coverage on Republican demands instead of the intransigence of the Biden regime. 

CBS dropped the Biden documents scandal on Wednesday morning and was followed that night by NBC, so it was only a matter of time before ABC did the same. Sure enough, Thursday’s Good Morning America put it out to pasture. Instead, the three networks resumed spinning for the Biden administration as they slammed House Republicans for refusing to lift the debt ceiling, creating a “…

Two days after Kevin McCarthy won his hard-fought battle to become Speaker of the House of Representatives after 15 rounds of voting and bargaining between McCarthy and House conservatives, ABC's This Week moderator George Stephanopoulos opened the program on Sunday morning to panic over what the next two years could mean for the United States now that McCarthy is second in line for…

Blessed are the young for they shall inherit the national debt.” – Herbert Hoover. “Rather go to bed without dinner than to rise in debt.” – Benjamin Franklin Eighteen Republican senators voted for the monstrosity known as the $1.7 trillion Omnibus spending bill, thus forever relinquishing their claim to belong to a party committed to less spending, smaller government, and…
