And I mean that as a verb – as in to stop and freeze – not as the noun synonymous with the kind of literal bank robbery that they’ve been planning.Apparently, that needs to be clarified, lest they feel encouraged in continuing to weaponize the wide discretion afforded by their executive function, even as they express explicit deep doubts about their own people backing their actions.Such was the case on December 18 and 19 when heads of…
Do you remember all of those people over the years that warned us that the cost of living would eventually spiral out of control? It turns out that they were right. Our leaders flooded the system with trillions upon trillions of new dollars, and now we have a real life nightmare on our hands. The value of the U.S. dollar has tanked, the price of silver is up more than 100 percent in 2025, and we are in the midst of a horrifying cost of living crisis that never seems to end. In particular, food prices have become exceptionally painful, and this…

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Fox Business in Depth: The Path to Prosperity,” Fox Business host Dagen McDowell stated that the White House and Congress “need to stop giving handouts” and “the welfare for farmers” and “$1,000 checks for kids and the IRAs” are examples of handouts with the former being a form of stimulus as well. After saying that Republicans in Congress should promote their own laws more, McDowell added, [relevant remarks begin around 5:30] “And also, they need to stop giving handouts out of the White House and out of Congress. The supersized Obamacare subsidies,…
MS NOW contributor Claire McCaskill said Monday on “The Weeknight” that “both Republicans and Democrats” will vote to hold Attorney General Pam Bondi in inherent contempt. McCaskill said, “You know, we have a vote of Congress. I think there was one member of the House that voted against this law and maybe one senator. I don’t remember how many senators. So Congress has spoken with one voice here. This isn’t about Democrats or Republicans. This is about a decision that it all comes out.
