    House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy said at a press conference Thursday he has not spoken with President Joe Biden since his inauguration. Biden, when he was elected and inaugurated, called for unity and bipartisanship. He has recently called for Republicans to negotiate with his administration and Democrats on a potential $2.5 trillion infrastructure package.
  • Biden's Unity Fantasy

    Editor's Note: This piece was co-authored by David Goetsch.Candidate Joe Biden ran for president on a promise of uniting our divided nation. Then, during his long-awaited, much-anticipated first press conference, he repeated the promise. In years past, such a claim made by the most divisive president since Andrew Johnson would have elicited cries of disbelief from reporters, followed by probing questions. But that was in the old days, before real journalists were replaced by leftist media minions. A real journalist, upon hearing Biden's unity claim, would have pointed out the president was proposing a fantasy worthy of Walt Disney. Of...

    It’s late March. The weather here in my hometown of Pittsburgh, echoing much of the region, dipped from consecutive days of ‘65 and sunny’ to a stretch of cooler temperatures with brief but sudden storms. You may have noticed, or seen repeated approvingly in newspapers around the country, that the political temperature in America is supposedly lower too. Some articles even note that relieved Americans are tuning out from politics, that cable news is facing a ratings drop off, and that even Twitter feels different due to a curious absence of all caps tweets. What the headlines should read is...
  • Biden Continues To Fire Trump Appointees From Independent Agencies

    A growing number of people who were approved for independent government positions must be feeling like they’re starring in a reboot of The Apprentice, with Joe Biden now playing Donald Trump’s old role. The common theme is that they all received the same message. You’re fired. Joining the list of the newly unemployed this month was Sharon Fast Gustafson, the former General Counsel for the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission. Gustafson wasn’t even two years into her four-year contract at the EEOC when she received a letter from the President requesting her resignation. She wrote back, saying that she intended to...
  • Fact Check: Joe Biden Appears to Blame Trump for Coronavirus Deaths

    Breitbart ^ | 11 Mar 2021 | JOEL B. POLLAK
    CLAIM: Coronavirus was met with “silence” and “denials” a year ago, which “led to more deaths.” VERDICT: MOSTLY FALSE. China denied responsibility, but President Donald Trump acted immediately — partly over Joe Biden’s objections. President Joe Biden addressed the nation from the White House for the first time on Thursday night to mark the one-year anniversary of the coronavirus shutdown that was announced by then-President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. Biden began by suggesting Trump was to blame: “A year ago, we were hit with a virus, that was met with silence. It spread unchecked. Denials for days, weeks,...

    Newly staffed with Biden appointees, the National Labor Relations Board has blocked the request of construction workers in Indiana to hold a vote to decertify their membership in the local carpenters union. Patrick Semmens, vice president of the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, which is assisting the workers, assailed the blocking action, calling it "a direct suppression of these workers' rights. Indiana is a 'right-to-work' state. That means people can't be forced to be union members in order to work. The right to exit a union is every bit as important as the right to enter a union....

    Rep. Liz Cheney said Wednesday that former President Donald Trump should have no role in the future of the Republican Party or the country. The No. 3 House Republican denounced Trump after she was asked at a press conference if she thought it was appropriate for Trump to be speaking Sunday at the annual CPAC event. “That’s up to CPAC. I’ve been clear on my views about President Trump and the extent to which following Jan. 6, I don’t believe that he should be playing a role in the future of the party or the country,” she said.

    Representatives Jim Jordan (R-OH), Devin Nunes (R-CA), Rodney Davis (R-IL) and James Comer (R-KY) sent a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) asking a series of questions including "When then-Chief Sund made a request for National Guard support on Jan. 4, why was that request denied?" Pelosi is refusing to answer any questions or share any information "with the traitors who enabled the insurrection. This is the time for the nation to be unified behind one shared narrative. Attempts to cast doubt about the decisions made by members of the Party are disunifying. I, for one, will not aid...

    The latest batch of Executive Orders signed by President Biden included one revoking the Industry-Recognized Apprenticeship Program (IRAP) established by President Trump in 2017. According to the Biden Administration "the problem with the Trump program is that it allowed trade and industry groups, companies, non-profit organizations, unions, and joint labor-management organizations to create their own apprenticeship programs that would help workers obtain the skills that the economy needed." Press Secretary Jen Psaki explained that "the narrow focus on developing job skills that enable the apprentices to proficiently perform the necessary tasks of their work is out-of-step with our vision of...

    Skaters arriving at Central Park’s two ice rinks are in for a cold awakening next week — the rinks, which are both managed by the Trump Organization, are being shuttered by City Hall to punish the former president for the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot, The Post has learned. The Trump Organization says its last day of operating the iconic Wollman Rink and the smaller Lasker Rink at the park’s northern end will be Sunday. The rink contracts had been set to expire in April, but Mayor de Blasio has moved to ice Trump out a month early, effective Feb....

    Democrat politicians don’t want healing, love, or compassion. They want power. If long-lasting, their reign will ensure America is never united again.On Friday, the president and first lady meandered through a Valentine display Jill Biden designed to decorate the front lawn of the White House. With Champ, Major, and a handful of media lap dogs in tow, the Bidens nodded with approval at the large white, red, and pink heart-shaped cut-outs adorned with trite truisms: “unity,” “healing,” “love,” and “compassion.” But Democrat politicians don’t want healing, love, or compassion. They want power. If successful and long-lasting, the policies they push,...

    It’s all over everyone. You can go back to not paying attention any more. Crazy orange man is out of the Whitehouse, and banned from Twitter– he can’t hurt you anymore. A new, glorious regime is now in power. The kids in cages have already been released, I’m sure– I don’t even have to check, I’m sure the President and Vice President took immediate action on such a pivotal campaign issue. And now, they’re calling for unity. They want to bring the country together. How will they do that? Everyone’s favorite socialist, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez asked, “Is anyone archiving these Trump...

    President Joe Biden will continue his strategy Tuesday of making a public display of his focus on the coronavirus – rather than the historic impeachment trial set to consume political Washington. The second impeachment of President Donald Trump on a charge of 'incitement of insurrection' begins in earnest Tuesday, as Democratic managers clash with the president's team over whether it is constitutional to try a former president. Biden, though, will be publicly showing his determination to boost the economy despite the pandemic that continues to ravage the nation. He will be joined by business leaders and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen,...

    “Unite the country” may be the three scariest words coming out of D.C. right now. Conform or be crushed is what they mean. Thankfully, Second Amendment sanctuary state efforts are drawing bold lines against federal encroachment.Missouri is close to nullifying federal gun control within its borders. On Tuesday, the Missouri House overwhelmingly passed the “Second Amendment Preservation Act,” which prohibits public officers, state employees, and political subdivisions from enforcing federal acts, laws, executive orders, court orders, and other edicts that transgress the right to bear arms.The Tenth Amendment Center, the premier think tank for nullification advocacy, calls this legislation “a...

    A Los Angeles Times opinion column is under fire for comparing supporters of former President Donald Trump to Hezbollah and Nazi sympathizers. “This woman compares her Trump-supporting neighbors, who plowed her driveway, to Nazi sympathizers & Hezbollah & wrestles w/whether to show them any kindness since she ‘can’t give them absolution,’” journalist Megyn Kelly wrote of the piece. “Note to Virginia Heffernen’s neighbors: don’t plow again.” The Los Angeles Times published a piece last week titled “What can you do about the Trumpites next door?” which described how author Virginia Heffernan’s driveway was cleared of snow by her Trump-supporting neighbors....

    Concerned that dissenting views could undermine the nation's unity, the Communist Party decreed that a government issued license be obtained by anyone wishing to comment on politics, economics, the military, diplomacy, and other major news on social media. Minister of Information Technology Xiao Yaqing explained that "the development of social media has enabled virtually anyone to communicate with millions of others without the intervention of editors and censors. Unfortunately, too many individuals have abused this opportunity to promulgate unapproved ideas and opinions. We now find it necessary to introduce a license requirement to the system. This will allow the government...

    WASHINGTON — President Biden said on Friday that he would bar his predecessor, Donald J. Trump, from receiving intelligence briefings traditionally given to former presidents, saying that Mr. Trump could not be trusted because of his “erratic behavior” even before the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. The move was the first time that a former president had been cut out of the briefings, which are provided partly as a courtesy and partly for the moments when a sitting president reaches out for advice. Currently, the briefings are offered on a regular basis to Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W....

    President Joe Biden says that Donald Trump should not receive intelligence briefings even though they typically have been given to previous former presidents. In his first sit-down interview with a network since becoming president, Biden told CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell that he doesn’t think Trump should receive the briefings his “erratic behavior unrelated to the insurrection,” referring to the Jan. 6 siege on the Capitol. “You’ve called him an existential threat. You’ve called him dangerous. You’ve called him reckless,” O”Donnell said at one point in the interview. “Yeah, I have. And I believe it,” Biden said. O’Donnell then...
