The Biden legacyHugo Gurdon: ... What makes our current president unique is, surely, that his unbroken record policy implosions have been accompanied at all points by boasting. Jimmy Carter, for all his dismal cardigan-wrapped malaise, could not be accused of being a shallow braggart. Surely no president other than the one we have now has ever so overpromised while so underdelivering. The combination is deadly — and deadly excruciating. It is not just that Biden shamefully ran away from Afghanistan, abandoning Americans and our allies there — it's that just a couple of months earlier, he airil... read more

Desperate leftists want to block Senate filibusterThe Epoch Times reports that a left-wing dark money group is funding Schumer's attempt to end the Senate filibuster. Schumer used the filibuster around 350 times to block legislation when Trump was President, but Democrats are desperate to pass a voting law that will make it easier for them to cheat. The law they are pushing appears to unconstitutionally usurp the power given to state legislatures. The Democrats think they need to change the law to survive the 2022 election.
