Following a Department of Labor report suggesting that inflation hit a three-decade high in October, President Joe Biden released a statement that he directed the National Economic Council to reduce energy costs. “Today’s report shows an increase over last month. Inflation hurts Americans pocketbooks [sic], and reversing this trend is a top priority for me,” Biden said in a statement Wednesday. “The largest share of the increase in prices in this report is due to rising energy costs.” The president said he would direct the National Economic Council to attempt to “further reduce these costs,” regarding energy prices. Furthermore, he...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said that “the pandemic continues to poke holes in our ability to get goods to where they need to go.” And “at the end of the day, the only way to resolve a pandemic-driven supply shortage is to end the pandemic.” Buttigieg said, “I would think of it in terms of supply and demand — actually, it’s three things: It’s supply and demand and it’s COVID.”

And Samson said unto them, I will now put forth a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty sheets and thirty change of garments: But if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty sheets and thirty change of garments. And they said unto him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it. And he said unto them, Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could...

The ABC, CBS and NBC morning news shows censored one of the most alarming inflation reports released this year. The liberal media networks’ protect-Biden saga continues unabated. The Bureau of Labor Statistics released another damning report released at 8:30 a.m. Nov. 10 showing that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) skyrocketed a whopping 6.2 percent on a year-over-year basis in October. The increase was “the biggest inflation surge in more than 30 years,” according to CNBC. The 6.2 percent figure wiped out the 5.9 percent Dow Jones estimate, CNBC said. The price increases “were broad-based in October, with higher costs for...

There have been absolute triumphs – the fact we have multiple safe, effective vaccines is remarkable – but there have also been challenges. We’ve seen storage and delivery issues, vaccine hesitancy, breakthrough infections and the beginnings of waning immunity.

"Mr. Ng is as good as dead in the picture, which was taken on November 4. And at that point the hospital still wouldn't give the Ivermectin," said family attorney Kirstin Erickson. After further legal wrangling and the doctor presenting a negative COVID test, the treatment — a series of 15 daily shots — began Monday night. The Ng's attorney claims Sun is showing signs of improvement already. "And today he passed a breathing test that he hadn't been able to pass in the last three weeks. And he looked more alert and aware. So I would say that the...

CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said Kyle Rittenhouse, the teen standing trial for multiple felonies following a shooting in Kenosha, Wis., last year, is fortunate it is not crime in America to "be an idiot." "What kind of idiot 17-year-old gets a giant gun and goes to a riot? He has no license, he has no training, he thinks he's going to scrub graffiti off with his AR-15? I mean, the stupidity of this. What could possibly go wrong? Well a lot went wrong," Toobin said Wednesday during CNN's coverage of the Rittenhouse murder trial, which is taking place this...

The latest lawsuit seeking to let a COVID-19 patient receive ivermectin against a hospital’s directives took an odd turn after the physician chosen to administer the medication allegedly acknowledged he is not vaccinated against the coronavirus. Sun Ng, 71, who came to the U.S. from Hong Kong to celebrate his granddaughter’s first birthday, contracted a case of COVID-19 so severe that in mid-October he ended up on a ventilator at Edward Hospital in Naperville, according to a complaint filed by his daughter, Man Kwan Ng.

Where is it written that Republicans must ride to the rescue of Democrats as they teeter at a cliff's edge, seconds from tumbling backward into the Grand Canyon? Last Friday night found Biden's presidency and Pelosi's speakership on the verge of metaphysical collapse. Just days after the Democrats took a drubbing in off-year elections, from Virginia to New Jersey to Seattle, neither Biden nor Pelosi seemed capable of getting his $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework (BIF) out of the House and onto his desk for signature. As Biden's approval numbers careened downhill, he further embarrassed himself by dozing off at...

The nation has been mesmerized by a televised trial in Wisconsin. A teenager is charged with murder for a case of clear self-defense… THREE clear cases of self-defense, really. The haters say that all that doesn’t matter, because he didn’t have to be there in the first place. He shouldn’t have gone. He shouldn’t have put himself in that position. He wouldn’t have had to defend himself, after all, if he were back home in Illinois, watching TV or playing video games, the way teenaged boys are supposed to spend their time, right? I wonder how many Americans have heard...

A lighting technician from the set of “Rust” is suing Alec Baldwin and the film’s armorer for negligence, claiming he suffered emotional distress after nearly being hit by the bullet that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. -snip- Svetnoy claims the 63-year-old actor should have checked the gun before pulling the trigger. “[Baldwin] owed a duty to [me] and other crew members and actors on the ‘Rust’ set to handle the Colt Revolver provided to him by defendant Halls with reasonable care and diligence for the safety of ‘Rust’ cast and crew,” the suit states. “This duty called for Defendant Baldwin to...
