Democrats do an ‘About Face’ on border security
Border security is a topic congressional Democrats once shied away from. Now, they’re embracing the politically charged subject as a winning election-year issue. Democrats see an opening to score goodwill with voters on a policy that’s top of mind in polls, but that has been a political nightmare for the party due to a surge […]
Israel fumes over Biden threat to withhold arms
Israel reacted with a mix of concern and fury Thursday to President Joe Biden’s warning that he would cut off weapons to the U.S. ally’s military if it moves forward with a full-scale assault on Rafah, the city in southern Gaza where more than 1 million Palestinians are sheltering. The threat, which marked a shift […]
Biden can no longer lie about failing economy
Last Thursday, the Bureau of Economic Analysis released its advance estimate for 2024’s first-quarter real GDP growth. At 1.6 percent, it is the worst quarterly performance since the economy contracted by 0.6 percent almost two years ago in the second quarter of 2022. This was a growth level one-third below economists’ expectations of 2.4 percent. […]
Young Dems warn Biden he must change course

Biden desperate to keep gas $$ down until Nov.
With only six months to go before the election, President Joe Biden’s strategy to lower gasoline prices is in jeopardy. The administration’s soft approach to sanctions on oil from Iran, Russia and Venezuela has been key to its efforts to tame fuel costs. But that leniency is becoming politically riskier: Iran’s attack on Israel has […]
‘Bidenomics’ slogan scrapped by Biden campaign
Last June, in what the White House envisioned would be a turning-point speech in Chicago, President Joe Biden introduced a new slogan aimed at selling an economic revival. The mantra was “Bidenomics.” And on this day, the word was plastered everywhere: flanking Biden on massive blue signs as he talked up an improving economy, across […]
Biden to limit college campus speeches this yr
Amid growing protests on college campuses by pro-Palestinian demonstrators, the White House is planning for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to have a minimal presence for a traditional rite of spring: delivering commencement addresses.

Biden’s quest to imprison Trump before election
The first of Donald Trump’s criminal trials kicked off in earnest this week in New York. Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg has charged Trump with 34 felony counts, alleging that he falsified records to cover up a ‘hush money’ payment to porn star Stormy Daniels. It’s an unprecedented case. Never before has a former US […]
Does Biden exaggerate or outright lie?
One consistent aspect of President Joe Biden‘s time in the White House has been his tendency to exaggerate stories about his past. Biden’s tendency to exaggerate, which goes back decades, typically involves stories with an element of truth that get stretched with new and often hard-to-believe details. Biden sometimes gets called out via fact checks, […]
Democrats will do anything to stop RFK Jr.
Democrats are taking extraordinary steps to prevent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from hindering their efforts to keep the White House in November. From rallying Kennedy’s family around President Biden, to dumping opposition research and holding press briefings about how he helps former President Trump, Democrats watching Kennedy qualify for more state ballots are pulling out […]
