Joe Biden came through again for Vladimir Putin, erasing years of bipartisan U.S. objections to his dream natural gas pipeline to Europe beneath the Baltic Sea. And it cost the Russian leaders nothing. Last spring, as part of his suck-up to the Russian president, Biden lifted sanctions on Nord Stream 2 builders and executives, again without any economic or diplomatic reciprocity.
Putin is a sly one. And Biden is big on freebies. All this after Biden kills the Keystone XL pipeline to support Americans’ energy needs. The huge Nord Stream 2 pipeline, now

Joe Biden reaches the six-month mark of his presidency in a few days. It just seems much longer. So, how’s the old guy doing barely one-eighth of the way through a 1,461-day term? Coming after the tumultuous 1,461-day term that preceded this, Biden would like things to slow down considerably. Perhaps even be boring. Anything to get through these grimace-causing public appearances of his, where he gets lost while reading his written text or simply goes silent for 25 seconds of mental rebooting. Biden or someone acting on his behalf decided he will not

There seems to be a stubborn sector of our officialdom desperately seeking to prolong our latent fear of that virus from you-know-where and extend government’s Covid controls. The latest is that evil D.V. (Delta Variant).
Well, good news. Perhaps you’ve noticed at the convenience store, in the post office, the break room. That pathetic effort of restoring government controls is failing. Crumbling might be a better word for it. [Snip] I was walking out of a post office one morning back then with a large, newly-received parcel when an elderly woman, her eyes wide with fear, flattened herself against the wall and yelled, “It can live on surfaces for 48 hours!”

Years ago, the car rental company Avis tried to catch industry leader Hertz by boasting it was No. 2, so it was trying harder. By political convenience Kamala Harris happens to be No. 2 in Joe Biden’s presidential administration. But no one suggests she’s trying harder. Harder than whom for one thing? [Snip] She's in a difficult position that would make succeeding there difficult for any woman, especially so when she’s getting nothing but lip service from the boss’s office and

Joe Biden is quietly implementing a drastic, dangerous, and many would argue naïve change in foreign policy toward recalcitrant states such as Iran and Russia. As part of a new approach to sanctions, built more around time-consuming collaboration and consultation with allies, Biden is already easing some existing strictures with no matching quid pro quos. Some Iranians have already been removed from Treasury sanction lists with no new commitments to negotiate.
Relieving those sanctions unilaterally is intended by the Democrat president as a sign of goodwill and allied collaboration. Biden clearly hopes that will lead to a

Joe Biden was attempting to show how on the ball he is this week at a briefing on the nation’s wildfire situation. It didn’t work. Biden was meeting with Western governors so he could be seen talking about the annual phenomenon of wildfires and how awful they are and how we must do everything to stop them, even though that just makes future ones worse.
“We know this is becoming a regular cycle,” the president said. [Snip] There is so much so very ignorant about what Joe Biden said. First, wildfire is not becoming a regular cycle. It already is. Has been forever

While House Democrats consider crucial decisions on such weighty issues as which statues of Southerners get removed from the Capitol, word emerged Thursday that the People’s Republic of China has undertaken a massive construction project to dig and fortify more than 100 new silos to house ICBMs. [Snip] These new active Chinese underground projects, first reported by The Washington Post, began right around Joe Biden’s January inauguration

It was an iconic moment, George W. Bush at his authentic best talking to rescue workers and a shocked America from atop a heap of 9/11 rubble. Just three days after those awful sights of collapse and death the president stood there, arm around a firefighter, bullhorn in hand. Someone yelled, “Can’t hear you.” “I hear you!” said the commander-in-chief, “The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon.” Loud cheers ensued at the site and far beyond. The cheering has long since died, replaced by

Many years ago in grade school, we had a playground bully who liked to push little kids down, me included. I consulted my Dad, who knew everything in those days. He said sometimes the right thing is to walk away. “But at some point, son, you’ll have to stand up to him.” [Snip] Sunday night, word arrived that Biden had ordered new F-15E attacks along the Iraq-Syria border on three militia weapons sites said to be preparing launches against similar U.S.-occupied bases.

We have an intriguing and rather disturbing mystery going on with our current president. Someone behind the scenes – we don’t know who – is telling Joe Biden what to do. He even acknowledges that. [Snip] We are about to celebrate the hallowed 245th birthday of the United States of America and the oldest man ever to sit in the president’s chair is being guided by some unseen, unelected hands.

Here’s a fun read to prepare for our sacred July 4th Independence Day:
How patriotic is the state where you live? Or wish you did? Or grew up in?
The folks over at the personal finance service WalletHub.com devised an imaginative matrix to determine Patriotism by State. [Snip] The findings are timely given our divisive politically-partisan days and also revealing about the demographic characteristics of each political subdivision of our nation. The results both support some popular beliefs and dispel others. Overall, it turns out: Red states are the most patriotic and

Imagine you’re a proud member of America’s military.
Perhaps a naval aviator, returning from a long mission projecting U.S. power over a hostile place, landing a jet fighter on a moving aircraft carrier in a storm–at night. [Snip] They’re all volunteers these days, these men and women who do dangerous work in countless ways. Imagine after all these years of military training in killing and surviving, the oldest Commander-in-Chief in U.S. history comes before you with a stumbling speech to declare in clear, decisive language that the real threat to national security is not what you’ve been diligently preparing for all these years.
