<![CDATA[Yesterday evening’s Joe Biden press conference had it all: pre-selected reporters, a “greatest hits” laundry list of the usual lies, awkward pauses and the creepy whisper thing. ]]>
We have had the debate and now the “big boy” press conference, and the world has consequently become far more dangerous place. Senior policymakers in Beijing, Moscow, and Tehran understand — better than Rahm Emanuel — the importance of not letting a crisis go to waste. They know that thanks to the arrogance of the…
Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) provided “Blaze News Tonight” Thursday with some damning insights into the state of play in Washington, D.C., and into how his Democratic peers are handling President Joe Biden’s decrepitude and political collapse. Lee indicated the situation across the aisle has devolved into a truly pitiable state. Biden has provided ample evidence…
Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 adaptation of “The Shining” is clearly Jack Nicholson’s movie. The part of Jack Torrance seems tailor-made for Nicholson, allowing him to take his crowd-pleasing, devilish charm and turn it into something much darker. In fact, this is why Stephen King famously disliked Nicholson in the role. A less charismatic actor would have…
“It’s hard to lose, even with a bad team, when you’ve got no opponent.” Lee Edwards said that to me Wednesday night when I visited his Arlington home to talk life and politics. In his 91 years, he’s lived a lot of both those subjects. His career kicked off in 1964, when he served as…
My fellow Americans, show me a “house divided” problem, where “We, the People” are losing ground, where we are failing — and not for want of dollars — and I’ll show you a violation of equality properly understood and constitutionally pursued.

On June 16, 2025, the Republican Party will celebrate the 10-year anniversary of a speech that changed this party, American politics, and arguably the course of human history. That was the day that Donald Trump rode down the escalator in Trump Tower in Manhattan and gave the speech that shook the GOP to its foundations….
Cancel culture, we’re assured, either never existed or has been effectively eliminated. But try telling this to Jeffrey Sachs, a globally respected economist who faced cancellation simply for telling the truth. To this day, he is treated as a pariah by the very outlets that once sought his commentary. Once he veered from the preapproved…
On Wednesday, Daily Wire founder Ben Shapiro testified before Congress about media censorship. Invited to speak by Republicans, Shapiro started with a five-minute blistering prepared statement that chastised Democrats and others for creating an unfair system that financially penalizes conservative media companies. “There is, in fact, an informal pressure system created by Democratic legislators, this…
Glenn Beck’s radio broadcast on Wednesday morning had some heartfelt and thoughtful discussion of the most controversial aspect (for Republicans) of Donald Trump’s recently released platform: abortion. It got me thinking about that issue again, not that I had ever really ignored it. You can’t. To say that the abortion quandary goes to the heart…
