This is a brilliant idea.  GOP lawmakers want to rescind unspent pandemic relief funds and apply them towards an eventual bill to resolve the debt ceiling. According to government estimates, $4.61 trillion has been authorized for Covid-19 relief, while $4.12 trillion of it has been spent – leaving roughly $500 billion in theoretically unspent funds, […]

Will this become The Twitter Files part 2? Or the Hunter Biden laptop saga part 2?  We can only hope so.  House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) has fired off his first subpoenas of the new Congressional session. The recipients include Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher Wray and Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, in

I’m interested in finding the motive here.  Could it be because she was a young, black, female, Republican?  Eunice Dwumfour, a 30-year-old New Jersey councilwoman, was found dead outside her Sayreville home Wednesday evening in what officials believe was a “targeted” attack, authorities say. In a press release, Sayreville police chief Daniel Plumacker and Middlesex

As I said before, Russia had nothing to gain. The US had everything to gain.  In surprising bit of candid investigative reporting out of mainstream media, The Times asked the question this week: who attacked the Nord Stream pipelines? In an honest and objective fashion, the premier British paper writes, “In this global whodunnit, the

The House Revenue and Taxation Committee on Thursday heard three proposals to provide property tax relief — a top issue legislative leaders highlighted at the start of the session. Each piece of legislation took a different approach to solving the issue. One would use a percentage of sales tax revenue to reduce property tax bills,

Progressives are so paternalistic.  A group of Hispanic Democrats in the state of Connecticut introduced a bill to ban the woke term “Latinx” from state communications. The bill was authored by five Democratic members of the state House of Representatives, all of whom are of Hispanic descent. The bill was at least partly inspired by Arkansas Governor

The House Judiciary and Rules Committee introduced our legislation to protect gender-confused children from harmful puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and sex reassignment surgeries. The bill, which we’ve named the Vulnerable Child Protection Act, will be sponsored by Rep. Bruce Skaug (R-Nampa) and Sen. Lori Den Hartog (R-Meridian). For those of you who are keeping track,

Former executive editor for The Washington Post Leonard Downie Jr. and former CBS News President Andrew Heyward have released the results of their interviews with over 75 media leaders and concluded that objectivity is now considered reactionary and even harmful.  Emilio Garcia-Ruiz, editor-in-chief at the San Francisco Chronicle said it plainly: “Objectivity has got to go.” Another nail

No apologizes. There’s lots of money and ego behind this entire thing. From the Washington Examiner:  The COVID pandemic is in the rearview mirror. We have plenty of data about it, including studies telling us how well our countermeasures worked. A dozen scientists from around the world conducted a massive metastudy of our efforts to

Minimum wage laws hurt the poor and the young (inexperienced) the most.  (The Center Square) – The Idaho state Legislature is considering a bill that would allow municipalities to raise their minimum wages above the Idaho minimum wage, which matches the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour. An Idaho-based think tank cautions that that could lead

Fasinating data.  Other than the Mormon and gambling effects, I’m not seeing a pattern.  Canadian health officials issued revised government recommendations for alcohol consumption last week, changing the low risk level from two drinks per day to two drinks per week. Health officials further said that no amount is safe and strongly suggested that citizens
