Slippin’ into darkness! Bidenomics, that is! Joe Biden is not a friend of the US middle class. The St Louis Fed’s real time GDP tracker known as Nowcast has Q3 GDP at -0.07%. This happening at M2 Money growth collapses. If you want to feel good, check out Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow estimate (housing economist Raphael Bostic is its President) which has Q3 GDP at 5.6%. When will The Fed return to it low riding rates days? Reverend Biden.

VIDEOLook at the absolute GLEE on the faces of these CBS "Face The Nation" panelists as they discuss how the absurdly early J6 trial date could be moved even EARLIER. They are salivating at the prospect of Trump getting jammed up by all the court cases being thrown at him by a politically weaponized Justice Department. Their highly partisan faces glow with the aura of the Banana Republic.

For one of the biggest moments of his life, Eric Bochene wore a faded white t-shirt and sat in an empty, green-walled conference room, straining to hear the volume from the computer. He grimaced as the virtual conference technology glitched. And he frequently voiced his frustration with his situation. Bochene pleaded guilty in late August to a federal criminal charge for his role in the U.S. Capitol attack. But he didn't stand in a courtroom. His lawyer wasn't standing next to Bochene. Instead the attorney was on a separate virtual conference connection. And Bochene wasn't permitted to choose his own...

Alabama's Republican-backed congressional map illegally dilutes Black residents' voting power and must be redrawn, a panel of federal judges ruled on Tuesday, boosting Democrats' chances to win back a U.S. House majority. The ruling is the second time the court has thrown out a congressional plan enacted by the Republican-controlled state legislature, and the three-judge panel in Birmingham wrote that it saw little reason to give lawmakers a third chance. Instead, a court-appointed special master will be tasked with creating a new map. "We have now said twice that this Voting Rights Act case is not close," the judges wrote....

Pope Francis insists Vatican’s relationship with Chinese Communist gov’t is ‘very respectful’Pope Francis's defense of Vatican relations with Beijing comes despite mounting evidence to the contrary.

School is back across the country, so let's survey the landscape of both higher and lower education. At the University of Michigan, students who test positive for COVID are being forced into off-campus quarantine -- like something out of 2021. They may not attend classes, and they may not remain in their dorm rooms, "even if they are in a single room." Dr. Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford writes, "students testing covid positive must leave their dorms for 5 days & live in the community. A hotel room or a relative's house is ok. This cruel policy is designed to spread...

Prosecutors have alleged that by telling supporters to "hold the line" after police asked them to clear the area, Lich and Barber obstructed efforts to restore order in the nation's capital after nearly three weeks of occupation. The pair's lawyers said in a joint statement Friday that...

The Oscar-winning Ghost actress and longtime head of The View table missed Tuesday's season 27 premiere after contracting COVID-19, cohost Joy Behar announced at the top of the episode. "We're back.

There is “no evidence that Biden is behind Trump’s indictment,” NBC News reporter Sahil Kapur claimed Monday. NBC News, a media organization that frequently ignores the Biden business scandal, announced no evidence exists linking President Joe Biden in any way to the indictments of former President Donald Trump, Biden’s political rival and likely 2024 opponent: There is no evidence that Biden is behind Trump’s indictments — two from special counsel Jack Smith, and one each from prosecutors in New York and Georgia who don’t answer to Washington.

Here’s some chaos for your entertainment pleasure, courtesy of the Sunshine State. The Florida State Seminoles and LSU Tigers squared off in a Sunday night prime time contest in Orlando, helping to kick off the new college football season in style. Those plans started out good, however, things completely collapsed for LSU at the end of the third quarter, eventually leading to them getting blown out in a 45-24 thrashing by the Noles. It was absolutely embarrassing for the Tigers. In fact, it was so embarrassing that LSU fans are hilariously already calling for the firing of head coach Brian...

Joy behar begs of you "not to vote for Trump"!

The leader of a flamboyant white supremacist group has told US media that he supports current US President Joe Biden over his predecessor Donald Trump because “he sends rockets to Ukraine.” US Police say the group is “looking for attention.” Former US Marine Christopher Pohlhaus, who refers to himself online as ‘The Hammer’, led a march of several dozen ‘Blood Tribe’ members in the Orlando area on Saturday.
