Perry Johnson, Republican Presidential Candidate, Slams D.C. Politicians Amid Leadership Fight While Inflation Soars 

Perry Johnson, Republican presidential candidate and outsider businessman, slammed Washington, D.C. career politicians for engaging in a leadership fight while runaway spending and inflation are wreaking havoc on everyday American families. “We have not had a Speaker, Republican or Democrat, in the last several decades who has taken our debt crisis seriously and now we’re in the middle of a crisis that continues to push inflation to historic levels, making everyday purchases like groceries unaffordable for American families. I’ve heard directly from people in Iowa and New Hampshire who are experiencing this everyday pain. Career D.C. politicians are asleep at the wheel while our middle class suffers. With all Treasury bonds now over 4.6%, and the national debt over $33 trillion, our country is on the brink of financial disaster. I don’t care who the Speaker is, but whoever is up next better start taking our spending and debt seriously. My Two-Cents Plan to Save America should be the first bill to hit the House floor.”

Trump is One Handcuff Photo Away from Historic MAGA Wins

By Cheryl Chumley

Democrats think they’ve got Trump just where they want him. Reality check on that: if Trump’s mug shot from his arrest yielded multimillions of dollars to his campaign for the White House - and scored even more for capitalistic conservatives who saw a goldmine in the photo and went for it - just think what b-roll and still shots from his court expressions will bring. [more...]

Sens. Manchin, Barrasso Sound Alarm on IRA Failings Related To EVs, Natural Resources

By Kenneth Rapoza

In a rare bipartisan critique of the Biden administration’s signature law, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and John Barrasso (R-WY) raised the alarm that the U.S. was far behind in certain key segments highlighted in that law that are linked to the EV supply chain. At the heart of the matter was the mined mineral resources used to make EV batteries. Last week, Senators on the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources lambasted the IRA in a hearing, all in agreement that American mining and permitting policies were a problem for building a local supply chain. Doubts have been sown on the U.S. being in charge of its green tech future. Manchin went so far as to say that the U.S. government was essentially “bribing” people and companies to go EV and that the entire power system of those cars are nearly fully dependent on Asian multinationals, led by China.

NY Gov Blames Republicans for Border Being “Too Open Right Now”

By Daniel Greenfield

New York’s Gov. Hochul is stupid, but even she isn’t this stupid. The trouble is that no New York Democrat can actually state the obvious which is that the Biden administration’s policy of keeping the border open and shipping illegal invaders across the country is behind this disaster. NYC’s Mayor Eric Adams has come closest to saying it and came under fire for it. Gov. Hochul is further away from the crisis, and she can’t afford to be less popular. So Hochul can suggest that the border needs to be controlled, but that it’s the fault of Republicans that it isn’t. [more...]

Upcoming Supreme Court Cases May Help Restore Free Speech on Social Media

By James Hirsen

The Supreme Court recently announced that it is going to hear two major cases relating to the right of free expression. Both cases will examine the constitutionality of state laws that were created to prohibit tech companies from discriminating against social media platform users who are ideologically conservative. At the heart of the cases is Big Tech’s pattern of targeting and eliminating select content. The passage by state legislators in 2021 of the laws in question came in response to censorship of user-generated content, which was taking place on social media sites. [more...]

Trump Derangement Syndrome Infects the Journal

By Bruce Thornton

A petty and flawed attack on our last best hope.

Last week the Wall Street Journal published an unsigned op-ed unworthy of one of the best teams of commentators in the country. The subject was some comments Donald Trump made on Truth Social that, by surprise, displayed his trademark turbo-charged hyperbole. The Journal is usually a reliable source of sober, judicious, and fact-based analysis, but this editorial is a troubling portent that Republican Trump-Derangement Syndrome hysteria may have a negative impact on next year’s election. Trump’s heinous sin, according to the editors, is saying that “Gen. Mark Milley, the nation’s highest military officer, deserves execution - as in death. He said NBC should be investigated for treason and that the FBI should raid the homes of Senate Democrats. Then he accused President Biden of being manipulated by ‘the Fascists in the White House.’” [more...]
