Those Signing Up for Obamacare May Not Like What They Find

By Sally Pipes

A record number of Americans have signed up for health coverage through Obamacare's exchanges, according to the latest numbers from the Biden administration. This enrollment uptick is the predictable result of the more generous premium subsidies the federal government ratified in March as part of the American Rescue Plan Act. The administration is effectively paying Americans to purchase health coverage that remains subpar and — at least without subsidies — unaffordable for large swaths of the country. As of December 15, 13.6 million patients have enrolled in Obamacare marketplace coverage — a 17% jump compared with the same date in 2020. The more telling figure, however, is that 92% of those patients received subsidies in the form of premium tax credits. [more...]

Elon Musk Takes on Senator Warren

By James Hirsen

Elon Musk has been an adept Twitter user since 2009. His followers clock in at almost 68 million people. It's an understatement to say that he has mastered the medium. Over the years, he used it to communicate business and tech ideas. But he has also jousted with debaters as well as detractors, one of the most recent being Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). After Time named him "Person of the Year," Sen. Warren launched a social media attack. She kicked off the virtual war with the following tweet: "Let's change the rigged tax code so 'The Person of the Year' will actually pay taxes and stop freeloading off everyone else." She also took out Facebook ads that accused him of being a "freeloading billionaire." Evidently seeking to impose a wealth tax on him, the ads asked for people who agreed with her to chip in $10. Elon was not about to take all of it lying down. He responded with his own tweet. [more...]

No, The SCOTUS Ruling on Abortion Doesn't Affect California Gun Laws

By Dr. John Lott

You would never know it from the reaction of Joe Biden and Gov. Gavin Newsom, but the U.S. Supreme Court's decision on Friday about the Texas abortion case didn't overturn Roe v. Wade. It dealt with arcane legal precedent over who can sue and be sued – what is called "standing" – and the constitutionality of Texas's law is far from settled. On Saturday, hopefully because Newsom hadn't yet read or understood the decision, he announced he would now use the ruling to help Californians enforce gun control laws. [more...]


Biden Collapsing as Dem Governor Declares Pandemic Over

By Steve Turley

Colorado's Democrat governor is defying bumblin' Biden by openly declaring that the pandemic is officially over. People have had it with the lockdowns and the mandates, and as far as the heavily Democratic state of Colorado is concerned, they're moving on. In an interview over the weekend, Colorado Governor Jared Polis declared that the COVID emergency is over. He said that if people aren't vaccinated, it's "their own darn fault" if they get sick. Well, what do you know? A Democrat who recognizes the role of personal responsibility. Now, while the Democrat governor did reiterate that as far as he was concerned, local jurisdictions could institute their own mandates if they so choose, the state would stay out of it. As far as the state government is concerned, the pandemic is over, the emergency is over and whether people are vaccinated or not, that's their choice. [more...]


Policymakers Should Wake Up to Telehealth's Benefits

By Sally Pipes

While the negative consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic are too numerous to count, there has been at least one bright spot in this unfortunate episode - telehealth's widespread adoption. Since the beginning of the pandemic, more Americans have received care remotely than ever before. That trend has been helped along by a long list of state and federal waivers aimed at reducing regulatory barriers to accessing - and practicing - telemedicine. Unfortunately, many of those waivers have expired or will do so in the near future. [more...]


Spielberg's 'West Side Story' Misses the Mark

By James Hirsen

Remakes of iconic films are rarely able to match, or even come close to, the level of artistry, entertainment value, and outright magic of their original movie counterparts. This hasn't stopped "new" Hollywood from continuing to give it a try. Steven Spielberg is the most recent one to have a go at it. Just released is Spielberg’s remake of directors Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise's 1961 enduring musical film classic "West Side Story." Spielberg may be wishing that he had chosen a different flick to try and reconfigure. The legendary director's remake, which bears the original's same name, has come up short at the box office.

Groundbreaking Win in Battle Against Palestinian Antisemitic Propaganda at Toronto District School Board

By Christine Douglass-Williams

Antisemitism at the Toronto District School Board has led to a backlash that the Board undoubtedly did not expect. It was high time that the largest school board in Canada, and the fourth largest in North America, faced accountability regarding its use of public funds to promote a pro-Palestinian agenda as part of its "equity" and "diversity" program. The Board’s actions go back to Operation Guardian of the Walls in May and climaxed with the targeting of a Jewish school board trustee who was taken to the woodshed by the Board for pointing out a disturbing incident of antisemitism displayed by the TDSB’s equity advisor. [more...]

10 Things the Left is Imposing on Us That Must Be Stopped in 2022

By Judd Dunning

As America wishes 2021 good riddance, 2022 brings hope of new leaders who will slam the brakes on the failed socialist Biden agenda. Reversing the damage and advancing conservatism requires a Republican president in 2024. For now, stopping the left is the objective. Attacks on multiple fronts must be defended by every flank. Vaccine and mask mandates must end; Obamacare must be repealed; the border wall must be built immediately; and more... [more...]


DUMB and DUMBER Billboard Goes Viral as Another Dem SWITCHES to GOP

By Steve Turley

A billboard in what's believed to be Richland County Wisconsin is turning heads of late, and not just on the highway. It's a billboard that depicts Cackles Kamala and Sleepy Joe as 'Dumb and Dumber,' of course, from the hit movie. Pictures of the billboard have gone viral on Twitter, and it's the latest in a whole series of humiliations that have befallen the current regime in the White House. The mainstream media is doing everything it can to try to get the Democrats to pivot in some way, to try to find another issue that can distract voters. Maybe they can help plot another January 6th - anything to get people to stop looking at inflation, the southern border, Biden's cognitive degeneration, unemployment, mass crime surges and on and on. Unfortunately for the Democrats and their pathetic cheerleaders in the mainstream media, it's not happening. [more...]


Why Gun Storage Laws Would Do More Harm Than Good

By Dr. John Lott

Shortly after the Oxford High School shooting last Tuesday, politicians started calling for more gun control. Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald announced at a press conference, "We [Michigan] don't have a safe storage law. We're not legally required to store your weapon in a safe manner." The fact is more lives will be lost than saved if we mandate that everyone lock up their guns. Gun storage is primarily designed to prevent accidental gun deaths of children. According to the Centers for Disease Control, Michigan averaged less than two accidental gun deaths a year for those under 18 from 2010 to 2019. That’s about half the rate of such deaths nationwide. This disparity must be a puzzle for gun control advocates since a significantly larger percentage of Michigan households have guns and the state doesn't have the gun "safety" laws that other states have enacted.

According to Justice Sotomayor, Child Killers Feel Pain, But Children Don’t

By Daniel Greenfield

When the Supreme Court took on its latest abortion case, Justice Sonia Sotomayor denied that babies in the womb feel pain. "There are spontaneous acts by dead-brained people. So, I don’t think that a response by a fetus necessarily proves that there’s a sensation of pain or that there's consciousness," the 'Wise Latina' coldly argued. Sotomayor's denial that a baby feels pain was in sharp contrast to her passionate conviction that murderers who kill children experience pain as they receive the death penalty. [more...]


Great Barrington Declaration Now Exceeds 870,000 Signatures

By Patrick Wood

On October 4, 2020, three highly respected medical professionals wrote The Great Barrington Declaration to protest damaging COVID-19 policies, including physical and mental health impacts. Today, just 14 months later, the Declaration has attracted 870,000 signatures, including almost 60,000 from medical scientists and practitioners. Since the GBD completely refutes the global Technocrat narrative of fearmongering, lockdowns, school closings, social distancing, mask wearing, etc., it has been completely ignored by the world's media and medical policymakers.

10 Things the Left is Imposing on Us That Must Be Stopped in 2022

By Judd Dunning

William F. Buckley, Jr. famously said that “A conservative is someone who stands athwart history, yelling ‘Stop,’ at a time when no one is inclined to do so, or to have much patience with those who so urge it.”

As America wishes 2021 good riddance, 2022 brings hope of new leaders who will slam the brakes on the failed socialist Biden agenda. Reversing the damage and advancing conservatism requires a Republican president in 2024. For now, stopping the left is the objective. Attacks on multiple fronts must be defended by every flank.

Here are the top ten things the left is imposing on us that must be stopped:

Vaccine and mask mandates must end. The evidence is overwhelming that lockdowns and mandates failed. Forcing masks and Covid vaccines on children is science’s polar opposite. Bullying people into losing their jobs is anti-science and anti-American. Using Covid as a cudgel to suppress God-given freedoms compounds Covid’s cruelty. Florida successfully combatted Covid while maintaining individual freedoms. New York and California regulated citizens to death as Covid deaths increased. Covid power grabs and subjugation of Americans must cease.

Obamacare must be repealed. Republican promises to repeal the Affordable Care Act have gone unfulfilled since 2010. While the ACA is a shell of its original iteration, it can be reincarnated unless it is permanently eliminated. While it requires conservative Republicans controlling all three government branches to remove Obamacare, they should restart the conversation immediately. A return to free-market healthcare centered around individual choices is a great start. 

The Paris Climate Agreement must be permanently shelved. Voters consistently rank climate change among their lowest priorities. Republicans paid zero political price for climate inaction. Conservatives must permanently eliminate the issue by showing how climate change action is destructive. Conservatives must connect the dots between proposed climate legislation and losses of American jobs and freedoms.

Our emasculated military leaders must man up. Republicans must directly link obsessive "wokeness" with the Biden administration’s failed Afghanistan withdrawal. Rush Limbaugh understood that our military’s purpose is to “kill people and break things.” The 1990s' hollowing of our military led to the September 11, 2001 attacks. Our enemies are plotting even deadlier attacks. Islamism remains a threat. Conservatives must show how leftist military policies threaten America’s safety.

The border wall must be built immediately. Leftists racialize immigration. Conservatives must center the debate around life and death. Fentanyl deaths are exploding. Drugs destroy families of all ethnicities. An open border means drug, sex, and child trafficking. While Democrats shrug, Republicans care whether women and children live or die. “Build the wall, save innocent lives” is powerful.

Critical race theory must be crushed. CRT gives Republicans the best chance in decades to win on education, usually a Democrat bulwark. Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin showed how Republicans can win on education. Parents of all stripes loathe CRT’s pernicious agenda. Democrats vacillate between falsely denying CRT’s existence in public schools and insisting CRT is misunderstood. 

Criminal mobs must face a law-and-order crackdown. Democrats are again divided between those denying the crime problem and those conceding spikes but blaming Covid. Americans know lawlessness when they see it. No Covid variant causes violent rioting. Restoring safety is good policy and smart politics. Conservatives must emphasize refunding the police and private gun ownership for self-defense. By attacking Kyle Rittenhouse and ignoring Darrell Brooks, Democrats are anti-safety and pro-GOP solutions. 

Censor censors, not citizens.  America was founded on freedom of speech. Bipartisan anger at Big Tech gives conservatives an opening. Reining in Big Tech appeals to millions of Americans who see Big Tech’s harm on society, particularly children. Censorship is unamerican, and conservatives must continue to hammer the issue against pro-censorship leftists. 

Ban transgender men competing in women’s sports. This issue also pits two natural Democrat constituencies against each other. LGBTQ advocates successfully won separate bathrooms and preferred pronouns. Yet their ardent feminist supporters drew the line at athletics. Women’s sports are being destroyed, with young girls suffering the brunt of the pain. Republicans can become the party of women by protecting women’s sports from permanent eradication. Even liberal feminists have concluded that transgender men are not women.

Inflation must be restrained. This is a slam dunk winner. Skyrocketing gas and food prices are a tax on working families. Democrats are the party of tax hikes. Republicans exist to cut taxes. Trump cut taxes. Biden raised taxes through inflation. If elected, GOP task one is to cut taxes by curbing inflation.

To stop this Biden barrage of “liberal lunacy," we must stay vigilantly awake, viscerally aware, and most importantly... unapologetic.

Omicron is No Excuse to Prolong the Pandemic

By Sally Pipes

Is the United States on the cusp of a new wave of COVID-19 devastation, thanks to the omicron variant? Public officials nationwide are calling for vigilance and caution - and for people to get vaccinated or boosted. Omicron certainly merits watching. But our leaders must not overreact by turning back to lockdowns, forced closures, and curbs on gatherings because they feel the need to do something. The consensus among many scientists - including Director of the National Institutes of Health Dr. Francis Collins - is that it's far too early to tell what kind of threat the variant poses, much less the kind of response it warrants. [more...]


Roe v. Wade Harmed Even Many Children Born After the Court's Decision

By Dr. John Lott

One often misunderstood fact: Legal abortions didn't start with Roe v. Wade or even with the five states that adopted abortion laws similar to the Roe type rules in 1969 and 1970. Prior to Roe, women could have had abortions when their lives or health were endangered. But many states, including some surprising ones, such as Kansas, already had very broad, liberal interpretations of what constituted danger to health. Nevertheless, Roe did substantially increase abortions, more than doubling the rate per live birth in the five years from 1972 to 1977. [more...]


How I Beat COVID-19 in 48 Hours with Ivermectin

By Wayne Allyn Root

I caught COVID-19 for the first time a few weeks ago. I beat it in 48 hours with Ivermectin and massive doses of vitamins - including intravenous vitamin C. But Ivermectin is truly a miracle drug. I had the virus for a day when I decided to take this drug; it was gone in 24 hours. Yes, Ivermectin and vitamins turned the dangerous, deadly, run-for-your-life, lock-down-the-economy, mask-up-for-life, vaccinate-or-die COVID-19 into a minor common cold. And then it was gone in 24 hours. Ivermectin made my COVID-19 bout so mild, I never missed a day of work. Yes, I hosted my three-hour national radio show every day, with COVID-19 - and no one noticed. [more...]

By James Hirsen

Dallas Jenkins, filmmaker son of "Left Behind" series author Jerry Jenkins, is the creator of the streaming series "The Chosen," which is the first multi-season series that focuses on the life of Jesus Christ. The series has become a global phenomenon. It currently holds the record for being the highest crowd-funded project of all time. Its devoted audience has funded $40 million in crowd-funding financing to date, which has facilitated the production of two full seasons of programming. The number of viewers of "The Chosen" keeps growing exponentially, thanks to the series' multiple streaming platforms and its very own app. [more...]


The Decline and Fall of Kamala Harris

By Daniel Greenfield

Picking Kamala was a brilliant move for Biden. Not so much for Kamala. The mediocre political hack, rapidly elevated to the Senate and then the Veepdom, has little experience in D.C., few political skills, and is incapable of even running any kind of basic organization. The same qualities that wrecked her presidential campaign also devastated her vice presidency. After her campaign collapsed into feuding between her staff and her sister, history is repeating itself. Like her campaign flip-flopping on socialized medicine, she veers between open borders and immigration enforcement rhetoric, between demonizing Israel and conducting outreach to Jews, without being able to pick a platform and stick with it. Kamala Harris is far from the only Washington, D.C. politician who doesn’t believe in anything, but it's her inconsistency that makes her appear phony and insincere even to her own people. [more...]

Biden Will Not Run in 2024

By Steve Turley

An increasing number of leftist pundits are beginning to openly panic about Biden’s implosion, and that panic can be seen by the number of articles that have been written of late in leftist standard-bearers like the Washington Post. These articles are openly speculating that Joe Biden will not run for reelection in 2024. In fact, leftist pundits openly questioning whether Biden will run again is now commonplace throughout the mainstream media. 'Oh he's running,' Jen 'Circle Back' Psaki, assures us, but when the very person who is actually paid to lie is the only person confirming your supposedly future candidacy, you have to wonder. Even the ultra-leftists at CNN, who are desperately trying to cover up the latest Chris Cuomo scandal, are openly discussing the possibility of a Harris-Buttigieg ticket for 2024. [more...]


Get Ready for President Hillary Clinton

By Wayne Allyn Root

I'm going to make a shocking prediction. Democrats (i.e., the party of radical, insane and hateful socialists, Marxists and communists) are getting ready to install Hillary Clinton as president of the United States. You might ask, "How will they do it?" The answer is simple. Biden is finished. He served his useful purpose. He provided a white, experienced, grandfatherly, supposedly "moderate" face to serve at the top of the presidential ticket. The mail-in ballot fraud got the Democrats 90% of the way home in rigging and stealing the 2020 election. And Biden's "white moderate grandfather" routine did the rest: He fooled just enough clueless and naive voters in a handful of battleground states to finish the job. Don't laugh. Get ready. It's coming - Clinton in 2024. [more...]


Los Angeles Enforces Vaccine Mandates for Indoor Businesses

By Patrick Wood

The City of Los Angeles has started enforcement of its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for indoor businesses. Los Angeles is another glaring example of lawlessness as it uses vax mandates to crush small businesses and further polarize its citizens. It criminalizes the unvaxxed by forcing them to "show their papers" to participate in the economic system - "no shoes, no shirt, no vaccine, no service." The medical Technocrat world must be stopped and rejected while there is still time to do so. Businesses and consumers alike must stand up and tell their city's tyrants that they will not obey nor comply in any way. [more...]


Hollywood Still Loving 'It's a Wonderful Life'

By James Hirsen

The beloved film, "It's a Wonderful Life" will no doubt air multiple times on TV this year. But there will be a bit of an additional twist to the regular television lineup. A group of Hollywood actors will participate in a special table read of the classic script. The live table read will honor the late Ed Asner, who passed away last summer. Proceeds will benefit The Ed Asner Family Center, which promotes mental health and enrichment programs to children with special needs and their families. An all-star cast will be featured. Tom Bergeron will host the event. SNL alum Jason Sudeikis will take on the role of George Bailey. And Sudeikis's real-life uncle, George Wendt (aka Norm on the classic sitcom "Cheers"), will play Bailey's Uncle Billy. [more...]


Kamala Stopped FBI From Monitoring Black Supremacists Like Waukesha Killer

By Daniel Greenfield

Two years ago, Senator Kamala Harris, along with Senator Cory Booker and six other Democrat Senate members, attacked the Justice Department for monitoring black supremacists. The politicians signed a letter falsely claiming that 'black identity extremists' was "a fabricated term based on a faulty assessment of a small number of isolated incidents." And they argued that monitoring black racists was racist. When Kamala Harris was running for president, the privileged daughter of wealthy foreign students falsely claimed that she faced segregation in Berkeley, California. In Waukesha, Jackson Sparks, an 8-year-old boy, was killed by the black supremacist terrorist whom Kamala Harris had protected. [more...]
