By Gary Bauer ~ The right of free speech doesn’t depend on whether we like the person who is speaking or what they are saying. Wednesday’s announcement by Meta, otherwise known as Facebook, that it is lifting its ban on Donald Trump and allowing him back on the platform is long overdue. How in the […]
By Tim Graham ~ How much does The New York Times look like a partisan Democrat rag? Look no further than the yoooge 3,700-word Nancy Pelosi puff piece on the front of the Sunday Opinion section (and two entire pages inside) by Maureen Dowd. You could see the massive color photo on the outside, and a […]
By Gary Bauer ~ “There has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump.” If things don’t go as well as expected for the GOP in November, the once proudly conservative Cheney family will bear a lot of the blame. Congresswoman Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) Thursday said that if […]
By Steven Hall ~ A Nevada mayor is leaving the Democrat Party and becoming Republican, saying his prior party has “embraced a socialist, extremist agenda.” “Like so many other Nevadans, I registered with the Democratic Party because Democrats seemed to be the party of the working class,” John Lee, mayor of North Las Vegas, writes […]
By Mike Gonzalez ~ Unity is not just an empty slogan; it truly is something all Americans should be striving to achieve. Many Americans still share virtues, such as attachment to hard work and devotion to principles such as equality, around which a president can create national harmony. We can’t achieve unity, however, by refusing […]
By Norbert Michel ~ Politico reports that progressive Democrats are set to “crack down” on the private equity industry, with Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., likely to reintroduce her 2019 Stop Wall Street Looting Act. Warren has said: “For far too long, Washington has looked the other way while private equity firms take over companies, load […]
By Corinne Weaver ~ Twitter censored 668 tweets from former President Donald Trump before banning his account, claiming his tweets were inaccurate and that some were a “risk of violence.” But when Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) falsely accused a U.S. Senator of attempted murder, Twitter did nothing at all. “I am happy to work with […]
By Fred Lucas ~ Joe Biden will have a busy day after taking the oath of office as president at noon Wednesday, as the Biden campaign promised and incoming chief of staff Ron Klain recently affirmed. Klain issued what has become a widely reported Jan. 16 memo on Biden’s first 10 days as president, aggressively […]
By Tim Graham ~ What, in today’s political culture, is a “centrist”? Old-fashioned political nerds define it by support for legislation and policy proposals. If you love really big tax cuts and favor abolishing several Cabinet departments, you’re not a “centrist.” If you want to defund the police and “end fossil fuels,” you’re also not […]
By Larry Bell ~ As avowed socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., noted last month at the Democratic National Convention, “We have come a very long way in five years.” Saluting his success at moving Democrats away from more centrist views, he said, “Many of the ideas we fought for, that just a few years ago […]
By Gabriel Hays ~ Hollywood exemplifies desperation and utter ideological servitude when they worship the ground that failed 2020 presidential candidate-turned 2020 Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Kamala Harris walks. Yeah, so what if her record as San Fran DA contradicts BLM demands? She’s the woman of color VP nom we were all promised. After the […]
By Larry Bell ~ New “Build Back Better” policies duplicated by the United Nations and Democratic Party political platforms propose not only to transform capitalism, but to expansively replace it with a “more equitable” Socialist model. The U.N.’s “Great Reset” plan announced in April calls upon all governments to seize upon pandemic coronavirus chaos to […]
By Craig Rucker ~ Joe Biden announced plans to make America prosper through the magic of taxing, spending and regulating. Biden’s plan for economic recovery includes inserting America back into the UN Paris Climate Agreement and spending two trillion dollars on climate change, with 40% of the cash going to “climate justice.” This is as […]
By GianCarlo Canaparo ~ An astonishing increase in violent crime is ravaging New York City, and some politicians, particularly Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., are offering false explanations instead of taking a serious look at the cause. This does a cruel disservice to the people they were elected to represent—particularly the victims and their families. Davell […]
By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ The U.S. House “Selects Committee on the Climate Crisis” is a symbolic committee, not a real one. It cannot draft and introduce legislation, which is what House Committees do. It is more of a study group and as such it has produced a study. Well sort of. The document in […]
By Clay Waters ~ Tuesday’s New York Times used the coronavirus pandemic to push both the leftist fight against “inequality” and left-wing politician Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She was fawned over in the lead National story slot, a full-page profile: “Lonely Voice in Congress Amplifies Plight of a Stricken District.” Mark Leibovich who recently hailed “eulogist […]
By Tim Graham ~ Sunday’s Washington Post Outlook section carried a preposterous article by Sam Tanenhaus, the former editor of The New York Times Book Review. It tried to suggest Bernie Sanders was a lot like Ronald Reagan. Why pick this man to try this lame thesis? This is the same Tanenhaus who wrote a […]
By Jarrett Stepman ~ It seems that Sen. Bernie Sanders can always find a way to look at the bright side of a communist dictatorship. Right after praising Cuban communist dictator Fidel Castro’s literacy programs on CBS’ “60 Minutes” on Feb. 23, Sanders, I-Vt., decided to share a little praise of communist China as well. […]
By Tim Graham ~ The New York Times posted a preposterous headline over Paul Krugman’s latest column: “Bernie Sanders Isn’t a Socialist.” But he describes himself as a socialist. Our own Dan Gainor underlined the humor of this sentence with this joke on Twitter: “Paul Krugman isn’t a columnist.” Krugman admits Bernie identifies as a […]
By Brent Bozell and Tim Graham ~ On Sunday, The Washington Post editorial page led with a dramatic and rarely uttered fact check. The headline was “There are no ‘centrists’ – the Democratic primary race is not a choice between change and the status quo.” The unsigned editorial began by taking on an “unchecked assumption,” […]
By Ben Shapiro ~ On Monday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., sat for a discussion with author Ta-Nehisi Coates. She dropped a number of shocking statements—statements that elicited nothing but murmurs of agreement from Coates. AOC claimed: “No one ever makes a billion dollars. You take a billion dollars.” How, pray tell, are American billionaires responsible […]
By Mary Clare Amselem ~ Free college sounds great! Who doesn’t like free stuff? To make the idea sound even more appealing, advocates continuously cite Europe as an example of success. Many European countries offer their citizens tuition-free higher education, so why can’t America? The truth is that free college in Europe is no success […]
From the team at CFACT ~ Presidential candidate, Joe Biden, the former Vice President, recently delivered a message for blue collar workers in America’s vital energy industries: you are going to lose your jobs. Pound sand; let them eat cake – pick your metaphor. Biden admitted: “The answer is yes,” to a question posed to […]
By Clay Waters ~ Former New York Times Washington bureau chief and now-columnist David Leonhardt (pictured) has found the problem with the press — they’re just too middle of the road. The headline was “What About Centrist Bias?” The subject line to Monday’s e-mail newsletter questioned the existence of “Liberal bias?” The online headline made […]
