The eruption of crowds chanting “Eff Joe Biden” that has been sweeping the nation at sporting events eventually confronted the President during his recent trip to Michigan where he praised the tyrannical Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as “the best governor in America.” Unsurprisingly, the president characterized this phenomenon as “false and misleading. Everyone knows that the people love me. Eighty-one million of them voted for me. That’s more votes than any other president has ever gotten. The chants of a debunked minority cannot refute the series of accomplishments that I’ve rolled up since I took office.” Recent polls cast some doubt...

Decades before Dr. Anthony Fauci led the US response to COVID-19, he shepherded the country through a different epidemic: the HIV/AIDS crisis. In 1981, when Fauci was head of a laboratory at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, researchers discovered that a growing group of Americans — predominantly young, gay men — were dying of cancers and infections. Scientists thought a virus might have been the root cause, but it wasn't until 1984 that researchers discovered that HIV leads to a host of life-threatening illnesses now known as AIDS. Doctors were watching helplessly as patients rapidly deteriorated. Fauci...

On Wednesday morning, CNN again tried to blame crime in liberal states on the laws of more pro-gun states as co-host Jim Sciutto recalled complaints in New York about guns being transferred from Southern states. Discussing a new CDC report documenting the surge in homicides, the CNN host did at least acknowledge that the morale of police officers has been hurt, contributing to the spike in crime, but did not clarify the role the media has played in making it that way with their over-coverage of police-involved violence. Speaking with Oakland, California, police chief LeRonne Armstrong, Sciutto suggested the availability...
