National Debt

It’s been more than two months since Vice President Kamala Harris was deeded the Democratic presidential nomination. During that time, she has not held a news conference or sat with many mainstream journalists to answer serious questions about how she would lead the country and who she would choose as her advisers. On Saturday, riding high on her first debate win against Trump, Harris accepted…

On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was lucky to have softballs from liberal journalists discounting the mass, unfettered immigration puts on small towns, schools, and social services like in Springfield, Ohio as, leaving those aside, she was hit with searing questions on the economy and government spending by Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich and Edward Lawrence.

Former Federal Reserve economist Claudia Sahm passionately defended the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous management of the economy in a Bloomberg op-ed. Now, she is desperately trying to soften the blow after her “Sahm Rule” embarrassed President Joe Biden. 

The national debt reached an appalling new high of $35 trillion, yet ABC, NBC and CBS News kept their evening viewers completely in the dark. 

Before Joe Biden’s incoherent debate performance, the media airwaves were full of praise for Biden’s “enormously consequential” and “extraordinarily successful” presidency.

With government debt out of control, seven years ago liberal talking heads emotionally denounced a Republican plan to repeal-and-replace ObamaCare, proposing a bill that would have saved an estimated $473 billion over ten years.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen spewed Biden campaign talking points during a Yahoo! Finance interview, leading to zero pushback or follow-up from her interviewer. 

Once in America – and in some parts of the world – we were gifted by great orators, men and women who could by the power and content of their words inspire, motivate and sometimes unify their nations. Today, we have politicians who mumble, slur their words, repeat themselves and in other ways make no sense. They neither inspire, nor unite. I don’t just mean President Biden and Vice President…

Morning Joe lashes out at Nikki Haley in reaction to her announcement that, despite having been very critical of Trump during her primary run, she will be voting for him. Joe Scarborough uses a vulgarity in his tirade, and Charlie Sykes slimes Haley as a "very, very, cheap date" for Trump.

Was it as bad for you as it was for me? Sending Washington money we earn, but Washington doesn’t, I mean? It’s not just being part of half the nation that pays taxes while the other half doesn’t that bothers me. It’s the waste and unnecessary programs and agencies that have long outlived whatever usefulness they once had (if they were ever necessary). And still President Biden wants to raise…

“Neither a borrower nor a lender be.”– Polonius to his son Laertes in “Hamlet” It may be too late given the number of Americans who have willingly allowed themselves to become dependent on government more than themselves, but it’s worth trying. Our $34 trillion debt is unsustainable, according to most economists. If we don’t act soon, we will be worse off than we are now. Our economy…

GOP Senate hopeful Eric Hovde has run afoul of the nitpickers at PolitiFact for correctly stating Democratic incumbent Tammy Baldwin's record on the national debt. The Thursday fact-check from Hope Karnopp defended Baldwin by claiming his statistics are unfair because the economy is larger than it has been historically and Baldwin is “just one vote in Congress.”

In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. It marked the end of an experiment that lasted almost a century testing the premise that godless secularization, turning control of people’s lives over to other people to rule them, who decide what others need and how they should live and conduct their lives, is the answer for mankind. In the free world, the collapse of the Soviet Union was cause for…

When some people appear beyond help because of addiction or other circumstances they can’t control, family members have been known to stage an intervention. Congress and President Biden need an intervention as their addiction to spending exceeds anything seen in history. In his State of the Union address last week, the president invoked one of his party’s favorite lines about corporations and…
