The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) has not been ratified. The ERA states: “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex. The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by...

Judge Pauline Newman, the oldest federal judge in America at age 97, is continuing to fight against a suspension from the bench by her colleagues who found her mentally not fit enough to serve. Newman is appealing her suspension and has also filed a motion to unseal documents related to an investigation which ultimately led to her being temporarily removed from the bench. Newman, who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1985 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, was barred from serving in September 2023 for a year by the Federal Circuit's Judicial Council after...

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) reportedly said that President-elect Donald Trump’s victory puts Americans in “a very, very dangerous world,” stressing that he plans to spend his final two years in the Senate pushing back against the growing Trump-fueled isolationism within the GOP. The 82-year-old Kentucky Republican, who last month stepped down from his role as the longest-serving party leader in Senate history, has a complicated record with the incoming president. While McConnell has worked to significantly move the country to the right — much of it under the first Trump administration — he is no fan of Trump and his...

The vast majority of Democratic voters still intend to vote for President Joe Biden despite concerns over his age, according to a recent poll of battleground states. Amid mounting concerns about Biden's age and growing pressure from prominent members of the Democratic Party to get the president to not seek re-election, a breakdown of YouGov polling data provided to Newsweek revealed that in seven key states, between 69 percent and 86 percent of Democratic voters who felt Biden was too old to serve another term as president, said they would still vote for him. YouGov provided Newsweek with the cross...

On Thursday, "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough made a striking claim: he asserted that President Joe Biden’s campaign believes that former President Barack Obama is working behind the scenes to pressure Biden to exit the presidential race. Former Obama advisers have indeed pounced on Biden since his disastrous debate performance last month, and this week, actor George Clooney, a friend of Obama's, wrote an op-ed declaring that Biden should step aside. Scarborough believes that the Biden campaign and Democratic officials suspect that Barack Obama is personally behind it all. “What’s going on behind the scenes is the Biden campaign and...

It looks like Joe Biden is refusing to step down from the Democrat presidential ticket. Putting aside the legal issues and deadlines resulting from late ballot changes and the undesirability of Kamala Harris taking over, there are problems with removing Biden by force. Let’s take a look at them:1. Removing Biden at the convention: The delegates are already pledged to Biden. This would require 300 delegate signatures and would be very messy at best, with Michelle Obama (assuming she is their savior) having to compete with other potential candidates. An alternative plan, still very messy and still subject to the...

I tried looking up the number of times that Democrats and MSM figures called for Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment against Donald Trump, but I couldn't find a reliable source. What I did find was something I didn't recall: the Democrat House of Representatives passed a resolution calling on Pence to depose Trump in January 2021--just days before Trump was scheduled to leave office. It was widely discussed in the media then, and many, many times during his presidency. It makes sense. After all, within 20 minutes (no, I am not exaggerating in this case), The Washington Post...

Joe Biden’s disastrous June 27 debate has sparked an ongoing meltdown within the Democratic Party that has yet to subside. His ABC News interview didn’t quell any concerns about his mental health. He might have accentuated them with the gross poll denialism exhibited by the president. There have been so many stories about discord, anger, anxiety, and Joe losing his mental faculties that the primary one of concern is getting lost in the noise: who is running the country? The tales of pervasive senility are not new or lost on conservatives; we’ve seen Joe and know he’s half-dead. But an...

For years now, honest voices on the right have called out Joe Biden's various "senior moments" and raised questions about his physical and cognitive health. While the signs of dementia have been obvious for a while now, it was only after Biden's performance at the debate that voices on the left finally admitted that something is wrong with Joe Biden. But has the White House been covering up more than just dementia? Visitor logs obtained by the New York Post reveal that President Joe Biden's primary physician repeatedly consulted with a Parkinson's disease specialist at the White House. According to...

The comeback tour is on after Joe Biden announced he's staying in the race, and it's going about as well as you'd expect. By well, I mean it's an absolute catastrophe for his campaign. On Friday, the president showed up in Wisconsin to hold a "rally." The plan was simple. Have Biden yell from a teleprompter for a few minutes while appearing somewhat lucid. If he could pull that off, perhaps the White House would have the fodder necessary to push back on the current narrative about the president's senility. So yeah, that didn't happen. Biden was over an hour...

The greatest loser from Joe Biden’s catastrophic meltdown during his debate last week with Donald Trump is not Biden himself. Somewhere deep inside, Biden may actually be relieved for the chance to be free of the obligation to perform (or pretend to perform) the world’s most important job. No, the greatest loser is the media, specifically elite news organizations like the New York Times that have teams of reporters covering the White House. These teams ether somehow missed Biden’s sharp cognitive decline - or, worse, actively covered it up. Either way, a reckoning for the way media outlets have turned...

At what point is enough enough for Democrats? They've clearly shown they have no conscience, and they'll do anything to win, even putting up and keeping a man in office who has the problems that Joe Biden has. They shouldn't even be talking about him stepping aside — that should be a given. They should be talking about the 25th Amendment. But they don't want to do that and they only are considering him stepping aside because they're afraid they're going to lose and then they'll be out of control. It has nothing to do with doing what's right here....

On Friday, while at a campaign stop in Wisconsin, Joe Biden defiantly announced that he is "staying in the race" ahead of his crucial prime-time interview with George Stephanopolous, which is set to air Friday night. The interview could be a critical moment for his campaign following his disastrous presidential debate performance last week that has led to many in the mainstream media and even some Democrats urging him to drop out of the race. Speaking in Madison, Wis., Biden addressed the debate but merely conceded it wasn't his "best performance." He did, however, acknowledge the speculation regarding the future...

Donald Trump has understandably been unrelenting in his criticism of Joe Biden over the years, in part because he's a political rival and also because he appears to genuinely not like Biden. I mean, who could blame him?That criticism increased tenfold, of course, as the lawfare tactics escalated, with Trump using every tool at his disposal, most notably his social media platform Truth Social, to hammer home the message about how in his view the Biden family, but Joe most notably, was crooked and corrupt.SEE ALSO-->> Trump Celebrates SCOTUS Immunity Ruling: 'Should End All of Crooked Joe Biden's Witch Hunts...

Democrats’ election machine is a built-in safety net that helps them drag subpar candidates across the finish line.President Joe Biden’s abysmal debate performance may have been the worst since Richard Nixon sweat profusely and appeared grayish while debating John F. Kennedy. Biden’s campaign should be dead in the water after last Thursday. But thanks to Democrats’ efforts to alter and exploit our election system, winning elections isn’t as simple as just being a coherent candidate. Biden’s atrocious performance could not be ignored. New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman called for Biden to drop out of the race. The Atlantic’s Mark...

The fallout from Joe Biden's terrible debate performance continues unabated. In the days following Biden's infamous face-off with Donald Trump, many in the media have called on Biden to drop out of the race, and donors are starting to bail on him. Elected Democrats have generally been reluctant to speak out publicly but have privately expressed concern or anonymously told the media they think he should leave the ticket. The first Democrat to publicly call on Biden to drop out is Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Tex.), a 15-term incumbent and the second-highest ranking Democrat on the powerful House Ways and Means...

Biden’s disastrous debate performance last week made it impossible to deny his senility, yet the Western elite is gaslighting they were supposedly oblivious to this until now. Time Magazine published a piece titled “Inside Biden’s Debate Disaster and the Scramble to Quell Democratic Panic”, which was complemented by CNN’s about how “Foreign diplomats react with horror to Biden’s dismal debate performance”.Both make it seem like Biden’s senility is a surprise for everyone who knew him.The reality is that they knew about this all along but covered it up by lying that any claims to this effect were “Russian propaganda” and/or...

Depending on whether you are a conservative or a leftist, the debate last night was either fun or awful. I’ll have a few things to say about it but the more pivotal question is whether Biden’s disastrous performance harmed only him or if it harmed the entire Democrat party. It’s an important distinction because the former means Democrat machinations and a possible path to victory, while the latter means that the Democrats, finally, are a spent force. I’ll start with a few comments about the debate. It’s now known around the world that Biden was barely sentient. From the thin...

Who can you put next to President Joe Biden that will make him look good? We know it’s not the G7, as Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni had to wrangle the US commander-in-chief when he threatened to drift away from the group of world leaders during a parachuting demonstration. And Saturday confirmed that former president Barack Obama isn’t the answer either, after grabbing his former VP by the wrist and guiding him by his shoulders off the stage at a Los Angeles event as Biden appeared to freeze for about five seconds. Biden’s handlers have already equipped him with special...

A worrying new Wall Street Journal report confirms that Joe Biden’s stumbling, fumbling and bumbling have not only unnerved America — they’ve undermined faith in him across the corridors of power in DC. That’s among GOPers and Dems alike, though lefty journos are mid-meltdown that the Journal would dare to quote Republicans for the story, as if they don’t deserve to comment on the obvious decline of the most powerful man in the world. But national Democrats and their proxies are circling the wagons for good reason: Apparently, Geriatric Joe’s gotten so mentally feeble he needs the equivalent of cue...
