Before Hunter Biden was an artist whose paintings sold for tens of thousands of dollars each to “anonymous” buyers, he was a businessman whose activities included private equity projects with the Red Chinese. One such project was the Chinese takeover of a formerly US-owned and operated cobalt mine in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Cobalt is a highly useful mineral used for numerous alloys, alternative energy projects like electric car batteries, orthopedic implants, and other things. The DRC accounts for about 70% of cobalt production. In any case, the mine used to be owned by an American company named…

When you think of science and what makes a science foundation run better, do you think of a Red Army-style commissar focused on diversity? If so, you might be a Democrat. As the Washington Free Beacon reports, that’s just what they plan on using your tax dollars to pay for: Buried in a Senate bill meant to increase U.S. competition with China is a measure that allocates $5 million in taxpayer funds for a “chief diversity officer” at the National Science Foundation. The provision is part of the USICA (United States Innovation and Competition Act), a sprawling bill theoretically meant…
In a recently filed complaint, Mark Brnovich (AG of Arizona), Austin Knudsen (AG of Montana), and Dave Yost (AG of Ohio), sued the Biden Administration over the limits it placed on what criminal illegals could be deported. As the Montana Standard reported: The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court of Ohio, alleges that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’ policy set to go into effect Nov. 29 precludes federal immigration officials from enforcing immigration law by limiting deportation of immigrants living in the country illegally unless they meet certain aggravating circumstances. The complaint begins by arguing “This is…
Recently acquitted Kyle Rittenhouse was only able to raise funds for his defense thanks to the extreme generosity of a few people that saw his case and the injustice of it and stepped in to help him out. Mike Lindell was one of those generous, heroic donors. However, Kyle, unlike many others, was unable to raise funds on GoFundMe to pay for his legal team. Why? Well, because GoFundMe kicked him off. GoFundMe tweeted out “GoFundMe’s Terms of Service prohibit raising money for the legal defense of an alleged violent crime. In light of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, we want…
According to a 2021 Rasmussen phone poll of 1000 likely US voters, about 58% of the American voting public views the media as the “enemy of the people.” Rasmussen Reports has this to say: A new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports finds that 58% of Likely U.S. Voters at least somewhat agree that the media are “truly the enemy of the people,” including 34% who Strongly Agree. Thirty-six percent (36%) don’t agree, including 23% who Strongly Disagree. Three questions were asked of poll participants: Do you trust the political news you are getting? How serious of a…
Tom Cotton, never one to shy away from doing battle with the woke, as we saw when he slammed Biden’s race-baiting DOJ nominee and skewered the military for pushing CRT on the troops, is once more stepping into the ring. This time, he’s demanding President Brandon apologize for his slanderous comments about Kyle Rittenhouse. “Joe Biden needs to publicly apologize to Kyle Rittenhouse,” Cotton tweeted. Joe Biden needs to publicly apologize to Kyle Rittenhouse. — Tom Cotton (@SenTomCotton) November 19, 2021 Cotton’s comments came after Judge Schroeder dismissed two charges related to Kyle’s weapon and jurors, after 26 total hours…
It’s not just students who are having the scales fall off their eyes as they realize the horrible threat posed to continued prosperity by Bidenflation. According to a recent Rasmussen poll, almost the entire country views inflation as a problem. Joy Reid and “Lyin’ Liz” Warren must have been the ones that disagreed. In any case, here’s what Rasmussen found when it polled 1200 American voters: Ninety-two percent (92%) of voters say that inflation is a serious problem these days. A Scott Rasmussen national survey found that just 5% disagree and 3% are not sure. Those totals include 64% who…
Brandon claimed his spending spree would cost nothing. For example, as the New York Post reported back in September: White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain on Wednesday claimed in front of an audience of Wall Street titans that the Democrats’ $3.5 trillion spending bonanza would “cost zero.” He said that’s because the proposal already has a plan to fund its wish list, which includes a huge increase in social spending and so-called green spending. “We have found a way to pay for every part of the spending with taxes,” Klain said in front of an audience of financial industry…
Slow Joe’s hasty retreat from Afghanistan didn’t just arm the Taliban, which received a windfall of arms and equipment that it recently displayed in a march through Kabul. It also empowered ISIS-K, which now reportedly occupies part of “close to all” of Afghanistan’s 34 provinces. According to Just the News, which reported on the subject in a recent article: U.N. Special Representative Deborah Lyons, of Canada, made the assessment Wednesday before the U.N. Security Council and also said the Taliban’s response to Islamic State-Khorasan Province’s (ISIS-K) expansion appears to be heavily reliant upon killing suspected ISIS fighters. […]”Once limited to…
Joy Reid, one of those biased MSNBC hacks Bill Maher was likely referring to in his comments about media bias, never lets the truth or reasonableness get in the way of a good story, as was recently seen in her comments on CRT and “missing white woman syndrome.” But one of her newest segments might have outdone those past ones. In it, she claims that the massive inflation Americans are having to struggle with right now is nothing more than a “GOP buzzword.” Watch her make a fool of herself here: Joy Reid goes FULL Stephanie Ruhle: “So, Republicans want…
College tudents typically aren’t known for supporting the GOP or insulting leftists. Though conservatism might have become a bit more popular under Trump thanks to his high energy and hilarious comments, it still has generally been rare to meet conservative college students. But, as with many things, President Brandon may be taking a wrecking ball to even that. Just watch these D.C. students react to Campus Reform’s Addison Smith tell them about inflation and describe the added cost they’ll see this Thanksgiving thanks to Slow Joe. They aren’t happy, and some are even willing to place the blame on Biden:…
Senator Kennedy (R-LA) wasn’t pulling any punches in a Senate hearing for Biden’s proposed Comptroller of the Currency, Saule Omarova. Watch him blast her as a Marxist here: Senator @JohnKennedyLA to Biden’s Marxist nominee: “I don’t mean this with any disrespect, but I don’t know whether to call you professor or comrade.” pic.twitter.com/eCKxmUhKMG — The First (@TheFirstonTV) November 18, 2021 Ms. Omarova attended Moscow State University where she received a scholarship named after Vladimir Lenin and was a member of a youth organization called the Komsomol, or young communists, as Senator Kennedy highlights in his like of questions. As you…
Continued leftist demands for vaccine mandates might be pushing the country toward economic disaster, especially if truckers are forced to decide between getting the jab or not working, according to Chris Spear, president and CEO of the American Trucking Association. During a House Transportation Committee hearing that focused on supply chain issues, Spear revealed the shocking, highly worrisome, and important results of an internal survey: 37% of truckers would quit if forced to decide between taking the vaccine and quitting. Watch him describe that here: Giving perspective on that number, Spear notes that were only a tenth of that number,…
According to Gloria Johnson, a leftist Democrat representative from Tennessee, chanting “Let’s Go Brandon” is the equivalent of burning the American flag. That’s right; according to her, a funny chant that pokes fun at both the lying media and Biden Administration is the same as taking a torch to Old Glory. Her comment was made on Twitter as a response to another tweet that took aim at the “Let’s Go Brandon” chant: As a friend said, I think it should be equated with burning the flag, in essence, that’s what they are doing. https://t.co/0WrJzFSkwv — Rep. Gloria Johnson (@VoteGloriaJ) November…
Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the House, had this to say about VP Kamala Harris when he appeared on Hannity on Thursday: “I think she actually accomplished something very historic. She got CNN, historically the strongest supporter of liberal Democrats, to run an entire story pointing out that the president’s team and the vice president’s team are fighting internally, in a very ferocious way. I’ve never seen CNN do anything that would be harmful to Joe Biden. This story was devastating, and I think it starts with a simple fact. Biden’s at 38 percent approval. She’s at 28% approval. Powerful…
Based on the reconciliation bill, a $1.9 trillion monstrosity, one would be forgiven for thinking that Democrats don’t want to stop with subsidizing non-working Americans, but want to go ahead and subsidize illegal immigrants too! The bill, which Team Biden is pressing Congress to pass, includes a provision that would expand the child tax credit to pay for the children of illegal immigrants. According to a RealClearPolitics report, the expanded tax credit would be available to every illegal immigrant child and would cost American taxpayers $10.5 billion. Here’s what RCP reported about the ridiculous provision: This includes the roughly 600,000 unaccompanied…
AOC, the smooth-brained representative from New York, is ignorant about many things, especially basic economics and socialism’s history of failure. But those aren’t the only topics about which she knows little; a recent video she posted on her Instagram raises the question of if she even knows the difference between natural gas and oil. In the video, New York’s ignoramus asserts that the Keystone XL pipeline and the Line 3 pipeline, one of which Team Biden already cancelled and the other of which (Line 3) Team Brandon and AOC want to shut down, are meant to increase America’s natural gas…
When the GOP wins big in 2022, and especially if it recovers power in the executive and legislative branches in 2024, the first thing it needs to do is take on Big Tech and bring the oligarchs to heel. But, when it does so, it must do so in the right way. It can’t take a sledgehammer to the digital economy that has powered American growth, nor can it continue acting ineptly and muttering about concepts it obviously doesn’t understand. Let me expand (briefly) on those two topics first, before I get into what exactly it should do. Understanding what…
Given its massive military buildup, penetrations of Taiwanese air space with squadron upon squadron of top of the line fighter jets, continued industrial and military espionage, and island-building in the South China Sea, not to mention that it just built a range on which it can practice targeting US ships, you might think Red China poses the greatest threat to America and her interests abroad Not so, according to Pentagon Spokesman John Kirby (the same guy that was reticent to admit that dozens of families of American soldiers were stuck in Afghanistan). According to that delusional Pentagon apparatchik, “climate change”…
When President Brandon ordered an ignominious retreat from Afghanistan, he didn’t just leave behind American families and our national honor. He also left behind billions of dollars worth of weapons and military equipment. That equipment included (but is certainly not limited to): 2,000 Armored Vehicles Including Humvees and MRAPs 45 UH-60 Blackhawk Helicopters At least 600,000+ Small arms M16, M249 SAWs, M24 Sniper Systems, 50 Calibers, 1,394 M203 Grenade Launchers, M134 Mini Gun, 20mm Gatling Guns and Ammunition 16,000+ Night Vision Goggles Large Stockpile of Plate Carriers and Body Armor And, again, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Scout…
Despite the massive win against CRT in the Old Dominion, critical race theory and its supporters are still pushing racialized nonsense in many parts of the country. Most recently, that toxic ideology was called out in Missouri, where teachers were told that it’s “white supremacy” to say that “all lives matter” or to call the police on blacks committing a crime. News on that nonsensical insanity was reported on by Just the News, which, in an article based on 2020 teacher training materials from Springfield, MO claims that: Training materials for the Springfield, Mo., school district told teachers they could…
