Jeff Bezos is shaking things up at The Washington Post.

The Post has always been part of the big-government, left-wing establishment part of our country.

Bezos wants to change that.

He wrote to the newspaper's staff that editorial policy is going to change.

"We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: ...Read more

Get ready to be bombarded with ghoulish paid ads and Democratic politicians warning about grandmothers dying, children denied needed cancer treatments, and pregnant women suffering. The demagoguery is in full swing against Republicans' efforts to control federal spending on Medicaid and stabilize the nation's debt.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul ...Read more

America needs more rules to protect workers, say some from both parties. Sen. Josh Hawley wants more rules empowering unions. Barack Obama's Labor Secretary says there's "no fairness, no equity, no concern for safety, no concern for children, even!"

In 1778, France signed a treaty of alliance with the United States and Franklin would later write a letter to ...Read more

The national media pay for national polls to measure public opinion. But often, they aren't just measuring public opinion. Their selection of polling questions carries an agenda, and tests how the liberal media arguments are faring in all 50 states. Their questions change depending on which party's president is in the White House.

There are ...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- It's too bad the Academy Awards are over with. President Donald Trump would be a shoo-in for what could well be the performance of a lifetime.

If Trump isn't really a compromised Russian asset who puts Moscow's interests ahead of those of the United States, he sure plays that role phenomenally well.

The Trump administration has ...Read more

One of the more baffling lawsuits in the final days of the Biden administration was the complaint against Zelle, the popular money transfer network. The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau argued that, despite Zelle's service being free, the network's users were being ripped off.

WASHINGTON -- I don't like the way President Donald Trump abruptly fired swaths of federal workers during his first weeks back in office. But I know why he did it this way.

Trump campaigned on a promise to cut the size of government -- and this go-round, he's actually doing it.

The administration has offered buyout packages, which some 77,...Read more

All roads lead to Barack Obama. He is the shot caller. He is the communist traitor behind everything bad that has happened to America, the U.S. economy and President Donald Trump.

I believe it all started at Columbia University.

Yes, I have a history with Obama. We were college classmates at Columbia University. We were both pre-law and ...Read more

Mitch McConnell, perhaps the greatest strategist in Senate history, recently announced he would be retiring from politics after seven terms. This brought on celebration from MAGA Republicans, who detest the Kentuckian with the heat of a thousand suns.

And there are numerous legitimate criticisms of McConnell's tenure. He ruled the conference ...Read more

On Thursday, disgraced "manosphere" influencer Andrew Tate and his brother, Tristan, boarded a private jet from Romania, where they have lived for years, to Florida. That these moral monsters have been welcomed to our shores with open arms is appalling and shameful. The saga also exposes an unfortunate fault line on the American Right -- one ...Read more

In the United Nations, the United States sided with Russia, Belarus and North Korea -- three authoritarian regimes currently rampaging through parts of Ukraine -- against a General Assembly resolution that noted Russia as the aggressor in the Ukrainian invasion. China and Iran would not side with Russia on that resolution. It is a bad look for...Read more

CNN host Jake Tapper announced that he and Axios reporter (and CNN analyst) Alex Thompson have a book coming out in May titled "Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again." They promise "an unflinching and explosive reckoning."

Conservative reaction was fierce. CNN was part of the cover-up. ...Read more

Is America open for corruption now? Unabashedly? Nakedly? Are we tossing aside not just our hard-won victories over infectious diseases but also the more than hundred-year battle against fraud, bribery and graft?

Honest, clean government doesn't follow automatically from democracy. Before civil service reform, the wealthy or well-connected were...Read more

Sooner or later, The New York Times catches on to the news. In the case of immigration policy, the news it has caught up with is that mass immigration, legal and illegal, from less-developed countries is politically toxic.

That news was relayed in a Feb. 24 article and thread on X by reporter David Leonhardt, a writer of center-left sympathies ...Read more
