On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) discussed fraud and said that “a lot of it came from COVID. A lot of it, we’re finding out, all across the country [is] from people who actually didn’t go to work, and they were not doing their jobs. And we’re finding out that they were very lax, especially through ’21 and ’24.” Guest host David Asman asked, “Dr. Oz said that a lot of this excess spending started with COVID, when hundreds of billions of dollars was just sent out, 50% increase in Medicaid alone.

Bend over and keep smiling Our incomparably bad leaders appear ready to foist another “pandemic” on the always unwary public. They proved in 2020 that the entire world could be shut down in a matter of days. With no troops or police needed. Just a corrupt, kept press, and compromised political “representatives.” They know that nothing sells like fear porn. The latest potential “pandemic” is called the Hantavirus. Authorities, who are always telling us something, tell us it’s been around for a while. It is spread primarily by contact with an infected rodent. Well, don’t we all routinely have contact with rodents, infected or…

On Friday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” House Minority Whip Rep. Katherine Clark (D-MA) responded to a question on addressing affordability when the big issues are gas prices and interest rates, the latter of which will likely require decreasing government spending by saying that “The fastest thing we can do to lower costs for Americans right now is end this war and get to a resolution of it, open the Strait of Hormuz, and bring those gas prices down.” Co-host Becky Quick asked, “How do you get at the affordability issue, though, when what’s — the biggest issues that are…
On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” Rep. French Hill (R-AR) commented on the proposed anti-weaponization fund and said that “it was a challenge when President Obama proposed a similar fund” with questionable levels of oversight and “the House and the Senate, need to conduct oversight and appropriate money for purposes and have that due diligence. It’s why this idea, I think, has trouble.” Host Bret Baier asked, [relevant exchange begins around 6:20] “How big a deal is this? And how big a problem is this?” Hill answered, “I think it was a challenge when President Obama…

U.S. President Donald Trump wasted little time contemplating the end of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert after its final episode went to air Thursday night, characterising the departing host as being “like a dead person.” Trump, so often a Colbert target and obsession in equal measures, used his Truth Social platform to declare: “Colbert is finally finished at CBS. “Amazing that he lasted so long! No talent, no ratings, no life. “He was like a dead person. You could take any person off of the street and they would be better than this total jerk. “Thank goodness he’s finally…

PARIS (AP) – France on Saturday banned Israel’s far-right national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, citing his “unspeakable” behavior targeting activists from a flotilla to Gaza who were detained by his police force. “As of today, Itamar Ben-Gvir is banned from entering French territory.
