Send in the clowns... Remember President Gerald R. Ford, and his hapless "Whip Inflation Now" campaign? Ford advocated buying cheaper stuff and consuming less in his ill-fated 1974 WIN campaign. According to Wikipedia: Suggested actions for citizens included carpooling, turning down thermostats, and starting their own vegetable gardens. "WIN" buttons immediately became objects of ridicule; skeptics wore the buttons upside down, explaining that "NIM" stood for "No Immediate Miracles," "Nonstop Inflation Merry-go-round," or "Need Immediate Money." Now inflation is back, brought on by monster government spending, and Democrats have cooked up far more dimwitted inflation"cures" than the hapless Jerry Ford....

What was judicious a few years ago is foolhardy today because the left has learned there are no consequences when they abuse the system to attack conservatives. ... Special Counsel John Durham continues to ignore the FBI’s malfeasance in the Crossfire Hurricane targeting of Donald Trump, a Friday court filing by prosecutors in the criminal case against Igor Danchenko confirms. While that approach may have been prudent and in the country’s best interests three and a half years ago, when then-Attorney General Bill Barr tasked Durham to investigate the origins of the Russia collusion hoax, it is no longer judicious....

"You got to be locking eyeballs with the people that you want to fight for...

In an ingenious move commonly used by pet owners, White House staff members have announced that they will be fitting Joe Biden with a custom-made jingle bell collar that will make it easier for them to locate the wayward President when he wanders off aimlessly. "I did the same thing with my dog Ringworm when he would just disappear sometimes," said Rebecca Gaffney, a special aide to the President who previously worked as a special needs nanny. "With how frequently the President absent-mindedly wanders away through the White House halls, having a way to find him quickly will make things...

Yo, this is President Biden's former press secretary right here with an urgent message for Democrats: "I think that Democrats, if the election is about who is the most extreme…then they're going to win. If it is a referendum on the president they will lose, and they know that. They also know that crime is a huge vulnerability for Democrats, I would say one of the biggest vulnerabilities." This lady retired from the Biden Administration a mere four months ago, and now she's just straight up warning the Dems that they're doomed if voters' main focus is the president. A...
