Bush in 2003 and 2005 and remarked that “race and gender, they only count if you’re thought to be a committed judicial activist, judicial leftist.” Ingraham said, [relevant remarks begin around 2:50] “I’m thinking back on the nomination of what would’ve been another first,...

Malawi’s President Lazarus Chakwera on Sunday denounced bans on Africa travel imposed by the Biden administration and several other governments, in response to the Omicron coronavirus variant, as “Afrophobia.” “We are all concerned about the new Covid [Chinese coronavirus] variant and owe South Africa’s scientists our thanks for identifying it before anyone else did,” Chakwera wrote on Facebook. “But the unilateral travel bans now imposed on SADC countries by the UK, EU, U.S., Australia, and others are uncalled for,” he continued. “Covid measures must be based on science, not Afrophobia.” SADC refers to the Southern African Development Community, a bloc...

The White House released a pre-recorded video Tuesday night of Joe Biden making an Oval Office address in which he claims to have saved Christmas and Thanksgiving this year by solving the supply chain crisis “several months ago.” Biden said he spoke with CEO’s of large retailers (and shipping companies) on Tuesday, all of whom he says assured him that everything is much improved.

Despite Biden’s claim to have solved the supply chain problem at the ports several months ago, it was actually...

President Joe Biden told Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards to 'just holler' for help on Monday after Hurricane Ida ravaged the gulf coast and referred to his senior adviser, former Rep. Cedric Richmond, as 'boy.' Biden introduced Richmond, a New Orleans native who quit Congress to serve in the White House, by a term that some see as derogatory. Richmond joined Biden on the virtual call with governors, mayors and officials from the states impacted by Hurricane Ida, which has killed at least one person and left millions without power. Biden announced Richmond would be the administration's point person on...

President Biden called a Black adviser "boy" during a Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) briefing on Monday.

"I'm here with my senior adviser and boy who knows Louisiana very, very well and New Orleans, Cedric Richmond," Biden said at a press briefing with FEMA after Hurricane Ida rocked Louisiana.

Joe Biden: The Great Unifier Joe Biden on Tuesday traveled to Philadelphia in a panic after PA Senator Doug Mastriano initiated a full forensic audit in several counties. Trump won Pennsylvania in a massive landslide on Election Day but the crooked Democrat elections officials stopped counting votes and refused to declare Trump the winner. Democrat officials in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia counted more than 1.5 million ballots in secret, handing Biden a ‘win’ two weeks after the election.

Video footage from Black Lives Matter and left-wing riots in Bellevue, Washington this week shows a female agitator repeatedly shrilling, “I can’t wait until black people lynch white people!” Other rioters also chime in to voice agreement with the insurrectionist, black supremacist narrative.

Joe Biden is not the President. Not the real one. He is the titular President but he is not in charge. You might remember that on April 28 Biden said that he's 'gonna be in trouble' if he answers questions from reporters. Finally, the president was asked a question about the crisis in India, where hundreds of thousands of newly diagnosed coronavirus infections are being reported every day.'I'm sorry,' he said.'This is the last question I'll take, and I'm really gonna be in trouble.'It wasn’t clear what Biden meant by being ‘in trouble.’ That was very curious and almost cute...

LIVE coverage of President Biden’s address to a joint session of Congress and the Republican response by Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), plus your calls and social media comments.

We have a brand-new public health crisis -- gun violence. Now that the last pandemic is dying out, President Asterisk has decreed that people shooting each other is our next pandemic. It turns out murder is not a morality problem, it’s a health problem. It’s no wonder we haven’t dealt with this crisis effectively -- we didn’t really understand it. It seems to me that our political rulers just need to have another dance with their new-found emergency powers. Perhaps Dr. Two-Mask Fauci can lead us out of this crisis. He can use science to address gun violence with the...

During Tucker Carlson's opening monologue last night, he said the promise of our justice system means, "that the cop who killed Ashli Babbitt will be held to the very same scrutiny as the cop who was just convicted of killing George Floyd." Let's expand on that premise. Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of murdering George Floyd yesterday. Meanwhile, the police officer who killed Ashli Babbitt hasn’t been arrested. It was announced last week that he won’t be charged. In fact, we aren’t even allowed to know his name. This seems to indicate an unambiguous disconnect in the...

Biden praises Derek Chauvin murder conviction, blames US for ‘systemic racism’ President Biden on Tuesday praised the conviction of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for murdering George Floyd, but also accused the United States of deep-seated “systemic racism” as he said the guilty verdict was “too rare.” “It was a murder in the full light of day, and ripped the blinders off for the whole world to see the systemic racism the vice president just referred to. The systemic racism is a stain on our nation’s soul,” Biden said in an evening speech broadcast from the White House. “The...

Odd couple: How a Republican senator and Biden’s defense secretary became friends downrange (Only link can be posted for this publication)

President Joe Biden appeared to forget the name of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin when referring to him during a televised speech Monday. The president was announcing the nomination of two female generals — Air Force Gen. Jacqueline Van Ovost and Army Lt. Gen. Laura Richardson — to a fourth star and important military commands when he appeared to forget his own defense secretary. “It’s my great honor to serve as your commander-in-chief,” Biden said. “I look forward to hearing your active duty and recommendations of how we will work together to keep the American people safe, meet every challenge...

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s name at a White House event — calling the Pentagon chief “the guy who runs that outfit over there.” Biden was announcing the nomination of two female generals to lead US military combatant commands. “And I want to thank the sec — the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my — the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.

He tried so hard and that was honestly sad to watch. Translation: "The guy" Biden spent 15 seconds trying to name before giving up = U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin "That outfit over there" = the Pentagon In all seriousness, pray for this man, because regardless of his radical policies, he's the Commander in Chief of the U.S. and he clearly isn't doing well.

A snack business created by a woman in Tulsa has gone national after it was featured on QVC. The little company, Carla’s Crazy Crunch, was almost crushed after a legal battle with a massive corporation, all because of its name. The end of the name – Crunch – is why the Nestle Food company claimed trademark infringement. Ironically, what could have been a dead end for the Tulsa company, turned out to be the biggest thing that happened to them. In Carla Robinson's wildest dreams, she never imagined she would be on QVC, describing her homemade sweet snack to thousands....

Democrats typically run Souls to the Polls programs aimed at Black churches in the final weekends before a November election, when some...

Allegedly, former Vice President Joe Biden’s awkwardness with women goes beyond mere unwanted touching and into unwanted skinny dipping. Writing in the Washington Times, Ronald Kessler recalled how several Secret Service agents told him when researching his book, “The First Family Detail,” that Joe Biden stands second behind Hillary Clinton in the ranks for worst assignment to protect – from his penchant for rapidly changing schedules to his, well, “bizarre” swimming habits. “Mr. Biden’s lack of consideration was even more stunning when it came to female agents, who were offended that the vice president bizarrely swam naked in front of...
