fromAmericanGreatness: If the FBI can selectively leak portions of the affidavit agents used to justify the search of Mar-a-Lago, then why should it be allowed to conceal the rest of the affidavit?
Police State America


fromPlebity: Today’s left serves rather than challenges power. Leftist analysis of capitalism, which once centered around class, has been rejected in favor of identity politics. Speech is conflated with violence, and punishment is swift for those who use words deemed to cause harm or offense.
Indoctrination and Censorship

fromReason: Why should we believe that this boondoggle will produce better results than hundreds of other corporate welfare programs?
Economic Policy: Statism Versus The Free Market

fromHotAir: Virtue signals are fine when the messages don’t cost anything. The easiest way to tell when that signal starts to fail is to watch politicians flounder as the costs start to rise and voters demand relief.
Political Correctness and Other Nitwittery

fromBrownstoneInstitute: Don’t be fooled by any appearance of contrition on the part of the CDC. They still have a legal appeal in process that would put a mask back on your face when traveling.

fromAmericanSpectator: He is still popping off after his stupendous act of partisan hackery.

fromAmericanGreatness: Those who warn most of some mythical civil war are those most likely to incite one.

fromWallStreetJournal: Politicians and trial lawyers are sticking up companies across the pharmaceutical supply chain like Bonnie and Clyde.

fromEricPetersAutos: Are you grateful that a gallon of gas only costs about twice what it cost two years ago (when it actually cost less, in terms of what it cost to buy, when adjusted for 9.5 percent inflation) rather than nearly three times as much? The Biden Thing hopes you will be – in the manner of being grateful to the mobster who only breaks one leg rather than both.       Inflation Nation

fromReason: Perceptions that the national police agency is at war with half of the population have eroded its standing, while Biden administration plans to super-size the tax-collection agency further sour public perceptions.

fromBreitbart: The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that at least $20 billion will be taken from working and middle class Americans earning less than $400,000 a year as a result of the increased IRS audits.

fromAmericanThinker: Thanks to the BLM effect, Griner may have lost her sense that there will be negative repercussions when a Black person commits a criminal act. And in carrying that mindset to Russia, she turned herself into a perfect pawn for Putin.

fromRutherfordInstitute: “Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.” — President Harry S. Truman

fromCreators: The public should be frightened that Democrats are passing new legislation to weaponize the already abusive Internal Revenue Service.

fromEricPetersAuto: They will be replaced by more “eco-friendly” electric cars – air-fingers-quotation marks to emphasize the lie of the thing, since there is nothing “eco friendly” about replacing a 500 pound V8 engine – as in the Charger and Challenger – with a 1,000-plus pounds of environmentally hazardous materials that consume a gratuitously excessive amount of power – in the form electricity that is generated almost entirely by burning hydrocarbon fuels, just like a V8 engine.

fromWashingtonFreeBeacon: Perhaps, when we know all the facts, we will find that the FBI raid on Trump’s Florida home was justified. Until then, we reserve our right to question the integrity of the federal law enforcement officials who have demonstrated their willingness to behave like political hacks and abuse the power with which they are entrusted to punish their political opponents.

fromReason: If all of the ballot initiatives succeed, pot will be legal in 25 states.

fromTheNationalPulse: COVID-19 lockdowns could be responsible for claiming 20 times more lives than they were advertised to save, according to a new analysis published in the International Journal of Environmental Research.
