Biden’s America continues descent into socialism

Seventy-four percent of registered voters who favor Joe Biden for president want government to grow bigger because they believe it's the government's job to provide more and more -- and ever more -- services. By contrast, only 19 percent of Donald Trump's base of support says similarly. I

ISIS is in America because of Biden

President Biden has been lumbering about the White House for three-plus years, paying lip service to the need to control the border while all along opening doors wide for whomever, from wherever, with a mission of whatever, to cross and disappear. No wonder ISIS is taking advantage.

Fauci once again takes taxpayers for a ride

Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired from public office though he may be, nonetheless is tapping into taxpayer pockets with a full-fledged federal security detail of officers who take him from one media appearance to the next -- from one book tour event to another.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., cries while speaking alongside state legislators and faith leaders currently on hunger strike outside the White House to demand that President Joe Biden call for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza on Nov. 29, 2023. A group of progressive lawmakers are fighting back against a multimillion dollar campaign to push them out of Congress for their vocal opposition to Israel's deadly bombardment of Gaza after the Oct. 7 terrorist attack.

Jamaal Bowman is profane and classless and perfect for the Democrat Party

Rep. Jamaal Bowman, a Democrat from New York seeking reelection to his congressional seat, told his Bronx-based constituents in a recent campaign rally, "We are going to show f------ AIPAC the power of the motherf------ South Bronx." This is what the Democrats have become: foul-mouthed infantile loons.

China is bad for America — and all the pols go wink, wink

Under the guise of farming, China's communists are well positioned to surveil, track and possibly take down America's military. Honestly, it's high time to take dramatic action against the communists from China who seek to destroy America the great.

Biden is loved by globalists — and that’s bad for America

Pew Research, in a recent poll, ran with this headline: "Globally, Biden Receives Higher Ratings Than Trump." And for the undecided voter -- that's all you need to know. If globalists love the U.S. president, then the U.S. president is doing something wrong.

MAGA-hating Dems scurry to tag Trump as ‘convicted felon’

President Biden sucks at pretty much everything, and has, since Day One in the White House. But since he's the apparent pick of the party for the Democrats' hoped-for 2024 presidential win -- well, they gotta do something. So bumper sticker branding it is.

Bold & Blunt: More COVID lies, more COVID coverups

Anthony Fauci took to congressional halls to testify before a House subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic -- but if Americans were expecting any apologies for flawed science or for flawed guidance to come from the lips of President Joe Biden's top COVID guy, they were sorely disappointed.

Anthony Fauci, then-director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, testifies during a hearing in Washington, Sept. 14, 2022. Fauci, who left the government in 2022, is facing heated questioning from Republican lawmakers about the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic. The top U.S. infectious disease expert until 2022, Fauci was grilled by the House panel behind closed doors in January. On Monday, June 3, 2024, they're questioning him again, in public and on camera. (AP Photo/Cliff Owen, File)

Fauci, still crazy after all these years

Had the concept of God-given individual rights and liberties been in play during the coronavirus years, America never would have reached the point where then-COVID policy czar Anthony Fauci was allowed to dictate-while-pretending-Not-To-Dictate how free citizens live their lives.

America, due to Democrats, is utterly torn by talk of ‘civil war’

In the wake of 12 jurors ridiculously finding Donald Trump guilty of 34 felony counts for crimes that had they even have been committed, would have been misdemeanors at best -- talk of civil war looming in America has returned in full force. This is the world the Democrats bring.

Biden’s secret launch of World War III

As the eyes of the world were on Donald Trump in the Manhattan courtroom, Joe Biden gave a quiet presidential permission for Ukraine to use American weapons and launch a strike inside Russia, to protect the border city of Kharkiv. World War III, anyone?

Biden’s 12th-hour race to reclaim Black voters

President Biden, with Vice President Kamala Harris in tow, kicked off a cross-country tour to beg, err, remind Black voters to vote for him this November. He's doing that because increasingly polls are showing Black voters don't want to vote for him this November. Tick, tock. Time is a-tickin'.

The image provided by U.S, Central Command, shows U.S. Army soldiers assigned to the 7th Transportation Brigade (Expeditionary), U.S. Navy sailors assigned to Amphibious Construction Battalion 1, and Israel Defense Forces placing the Trident Pier on the coast of Gaza Strip on Thursday, May 16, 2024. The temporary pier is part of the Joint Logistics Over-the-Shore capability. The U.S. military finished installing the floating pier on Thursday, with officials poised to begin ferrying badly needed humanitarian aid into the enclave besieged over seven months of intense fighting in the Israel-Hamas war. (U.S. Central Command via AP)

Sinking pier perfect symbol of Biden presidency

President Biden ordered the U.S. military to build a $320 million floating pier to serve as a provision point for aid to Palestinians in Gaza. And now it's sinking. Of course it's sinking. Truly, is there a better symbol for the Biden administration than the pier that's sinking in waters off Gaza?

Bold & Blunt: Optimism during dark Joe Biden times

It's one thing to stay on the sunny side of life when life is itself sunny. It's another thing entirely to stay on the sunny side when darkness prevails. And that's just what this current Joe Biden administration is bringing to America and to the world: Darkness. So how to stay optimistic?
