Topline: While the Department of Government Efficiency has taken aim at wasteful spending throughout the federal government, so far it has not set its sights on earmarks. The previous ban on earmarks that lasted from 2011 to 2021 brought $141 billion in savings, according to new analysis from OpenTheBooks.com. It’s a crucial area of waste […]

Bad news. Unemployment increased in the U.S. by 203,000 in February as 588,000 fewer people reported having jobs, according to the latest data by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) household survey. That means the economy is slowing down, as has been expected after overheating from high inflation for four years as a result of […]

President Donald Trump is locked in a lengthy battle with a slate of foreign-aid recipients dead-set on unlocking billions of dollars in U.S. taxpayer money, after his executive order last month temporarily froze the foreign-aid spigot until his administration could vet the process. Trump issued his executive order freezing foreign aid until his administration – […]

I’m old school. I think one should win political arguments using facts and logic. I wouldn’t last a moment with today’s Democrats. They are more like a vaudeville act than proper advocates. I guess that’s because they don’t really have any logical arguments. I regret to inform you that former NIH Director Francis Collins, who […]

The Democrat Party is controlled by the woke Left and one seismic election loss isn’t going to change that. Right now, they are in chaos and looking for answers about how to wiggle their way back into power. On one hand, you have congressional Democrats making fools of themselves by using the absurd protest tactics of […]

I’ll start with a simple premise. If we now have direct evidence that the federal government was funneling millions of dollars into supposedly free market press organs (such as Politico, which has received federal subscription payments from agencies including the Department of Health and Human Services), into universities and para-educational organizations (such as the Department […]

Joining Rhode Island Democratic Senator Jack Reed’s partisan handwringing over President Trump’s firing of senior military leaders (see Reed’s Feb. 22 Washington Post op-ed), five former Secretaries of Defense posted an “Open Letter” on Feb. 27 urging Congress to “investigate” Trump’s decisions. “In the meantime,” they write, “Senators should refuse to confirm any new Defense Department […]

Democrats lost in the 2024 elections largely because they’ve lost touch with America. They are very close to all the weirdos, wannabes, grifters and felons. Regular Americans not so much. But now they’ve uncovered the secret to electoral victory. 🤡 These are actually real live sitting members of Congress. pic.twitter.com/mGHdv7nMXI — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) March 6, […]

For at least a decade mainstream culture has been obsessively preoccupied with forwarding a distinctly left-wing “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” (DEI) agenda, and that agenda has heavily permeated the business world. While encouraging a diverse workforce sounds good in theory, the reality is DEI programs were used to discriminate against individuals based on their race […]
