President Joe Biden’s White House recently delivered to Congress its “Mid-Session Review” of the federal budget. The bottom line in this late July document was bad: The deficit for 2024 is projected to be $1.87 trillion and the nation likely will be $37 trillion in debt by the end of the year. This news arrived […]
Despite broader concerns about the economy, consumers are starting to see mortgage rates move lower, a trend experts expect to continue this year as the Federal Reserve begins to loosen monetary policy. The housing market has been upended by the Fed driving interest rates up to their highest level since the dot-com bubble at the […]
It remains to be seen whether former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris end up debating, but their debate about the debates continues. Trump has now indicated he would like to have three debates with Harris, all in September. Harris has so far only committed to the ABC News debate on Sept. 10. […]
When Democrats and their loyal stenographers in the media all peddle the same verbatim line, that’s a pretty good sign that it’s the opposite of the truth.

At a […]
President Joe Biden is in a strange position. For what is likely the second time in his life, Biden is staring at the end of his career. Close to a decade ago, he was passed over in favor of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Behind the scenes, his boss, President Barack Obama, and top […]
You know crime is out of control when someone like Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) is willing to contradict himself and other elected Democrats to insert himself into local politics to try and fix the problem. Such is the case in Oakland, California. Newsom has interjected in Alameda County’s affairs on crime because crime in Oakland […]
I grew up in Minnesota and used to work for the state GOP. I’m a bit surprised to see Vice President Kamala Harris choose Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) as her running mate. He boasts a progressive record, and a poor one, at that. Plus, she didn’t really need Minnesota’s electoral votes — she had already […]
Thirty-five years after Pete Rose was banned from baseball for betting on games, the question of whether his punishment fits the crime generates as much debate as ever.
