Conspiratorial RFK Jr. will be tough foe
for a weakened Biden

Joe Biden is a nostalgia president. He’s a link to the Obama era, of course. But he’s also a living reminder of the days when Democrats were automatically the party of white ethnics, especially Irish Catholics. For senior white voters in the Democratic coalition, the professed Catholic and Irish-ish Biden is an older, lesser Kennedy — but an heir to JFK nonetheless. Only now Biden has to contend with a real Kennedy for next year’s Democratic presidential nomination. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced his bid not even two weeks ago and already polls at 20% in the Democratic race. That’s partly a function of his famous name, of course.

RFK Jr. might just strike a chord with Gen Z and Millennials, as well as some elderly Democrats who don't cotton to a bunch of drag queens running their Party.

Yes. But… The headline implies Democrats (meaning the voters) are the ones who decide candidates, and ultimately office holders. We all know The Machine’s penchant for smoke and mirrors.

What a bunch of hooey. Kennedy will be Obama-medium, like Biden is Obama-lite.

The real question for me is whether Barack & Co. will choose to embrace Bobby Jr. Yes, dems love their sainted Kennedys, especially as museum pieces to be hauled out when they serve some purpose. Bobby hasn't given any indication of loving the Barack wing of the party, other than sharing a (D) after their names. It doesn't look like Barack/Soros control (or can control) him, so what happens next? It wouldn't surprise me in the least to find that there is already a plan in motion to destroy him. Lots of dirt to dig up and bury him with.

Biden badly needs a challenger. RFK has been through the wringer, and is at an age that the Democrat Party will not be able to intimidate him.

Especially if RFK Jr. runs as an independent candidate believing that his run in the Democrat primaries was sabotaged by Biden, his crew, and the establishment Democrats.

I like some of the things RFK Jr. is saying about Big Pharma, Big Government, and Fauci, but I won't vote for him. However, I want him to stick around and give fits to Biden's puppetmasters. As a side note, I doubt the Dems can buy off RFK Jr. the way they did with Bernie Sanders (twice).

This should make things very interesting in the Dem primaries. RFK Jr. is not afraid to call out the corruption inside the Dem party. He's gunning for Fauci and the Covid regime. I'm all for that. I'm going to vote in the California jungle primary for RFK Jr. and throw some sand in the Dem Party machine. For once my vote will count. What Fun!

The media has to cover him because he is a Kennedy and a Democrat. As a Kennedy, even though that gets him no automatic support in the 21st century, he has impunity to attack the administration’s policies or lack of policies on specific hot button issues. Party voters can’t help but see him as an alternative Democrat. Promising to clean up the ragged edges of Biden’s administration will make him a popular candidate and a viable one if Biden continues to decline. Most importantly, he has figured out how to differentiate himself from the Biden mob now running the government.

One of the more frustrating consequences of the radical Left’s takeover of America’s big cities has been that the elected saboteurs are rarely, if ever, forced to answer for their destructive acts. Who will hold a deranged mayor accountable when the City Council, district attorney, and others all practice the same groupthink? On that count, America owes Texas Governor Greg Abbott a debt of gratitude. Since last summer, Abbott has been showing America the folly of sanctuary policies and the hypocrisy of those who support them. By sending buses of newly arrived illegal aliens to some of America’s major metropolitan centers, Abbott

A former Space Force lieutenant colonel who was relieved of his command in 2021 after criticizing the rise of wokeness and critical race theory principles within the military sounded off on the U.S. Navy's latest recruitment strategy: showcasing drag performers. Matthew Lohmeier, who was commander of the 11th Space Warning Squadron in Colorado before he made comments on a podcast critical of Marxism, told Fox News it is sad that whenever the U.S. military makes the news, it is for items like the drag-themed recruitment videos.

On Wednesday morning, Chief Justice John Roberts should get up, look into the mirror and declare "I deserve good things. I am entitled to my share of happiness. I refuse to beat myself up. I am an attractive person. I am fun to be with." That mantra from SNL's "Daily Affirmation with Stuart Smalley" seems appropriate after the former Smalley comedian (and former U.S. Senator) Al Franken has declared Roberts a "villain" and his Court "illegitimate" in the latest attack on the institution. Now that Franken has turned to a podcast as a public platform, the comforting sweaters are gone and the dark Stuart Smalley has emerged.

The concerted effort by the media and Democrats to delegitimize the Supreme Court is the most consequential attack on our institutions in memory. Make no mistake. Today’s “Supreme Court Ethics Reform” hearing is meant to discredit the high court and slander justices with innuendo. Nothing else. Democrats are angry because the court happens to occasionally uphold basic constitutional principles of American governance. Democrats are nervous that originalist justices are going to weaken the administrative state or hand power back to localities or protect religious liberty or gun rights.

The King James Bible, the most famous version of the world’s most influential book, was published on this day in history, May 2, 1611. "The King James, or Authorized, Version of the Bible remains the most widely published text in the English language," claims the British Library. Commissioned by King James I of England in 1604, it is famed for its artfully written versions of Old and New Testament tales; its success bringing the Word of God to English-speaking commoners; and its influence on the American colonies.

A Republican councilman in Indiana is going viral after writing on Facebook that he now identifies as a woman of color in an apparent effort to troll the left. Ryan Webb, a father of five who is married to his wife, Brandy, is currently a councilman for Delaware County, Indiana, according to his official account. But he raised eyebrows after he announced his gender transition on Facebook, in a move that some conservative commentators are interpreting as a joke. Webb himself has said that he is holding up a "mirror to the political left" to expose the contradictions in gender ideology. "After much consideration I have decided

Conventional wisdom holds that last week’s vote by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives to approve a debt limit and spending reduction bill is meaningless. Democrats called the legislation dead on arrival in the Senate, making whatever the House decides to do on its own irrelevant. As with many things in Washington, the corporate media’s conventional wisdom is wrong. Approving a debt limit bill did more than dispel the narrative that the Republican House, and Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., will remain perpetually in disarray. By eliminating one of the major elements of Democrats’ political argument, it raised questions about their own strategic endgame.

We start with the likely American landscape over the next two years. Joe Biden has no choice but to focus on a purely negative message. So we already know his talking points for the next 18 months: “ultra MAGA” demons, “semi-fascist” insurrectionists, Trump!, Trump!, Trump!, and more Trump!, murdering fellow Americans by putting limits on partial-birth and early abortions, “censorship” as banning critical race theory indoctrination and grooming books, inciting racial tribalism, along with the corollary old boilerplate triad of isms—“fascism, sexism, and racism!” There will be no Democratic primary debates, even if support for Robert Kennedy, Jr. surges to 25-30 percent of the Democratic electorate.

Opportunity is ripe for Republicans to win back the Senate next year – if they can land the candidates to pull it off. The GOP needs a net gain of one or two seats to flip the chamber, depending on which party wins the White House in 2024, and it’s Democrats who are defending the tougher seats. Democrats hold seven of the 10 seats that CNN ranks as most likely to flip party control next year – and the top three are all in states former President Donald Trump carried twice.

If you are an incumbent president, there are many possible recipes for success in re-election—but slow and declining economic growth topped with persistently high inflation is not one of them.The economic news is ugly for the country, which will get over it eventually, and even uglier for Joe Biden, who may not get over it at all.

Black drivers in Florida are nearly three times more likely to be ticketed by police and sheriff’s deputies under a law that allowed law enforcement to cite drivers for loud music starting last year, according to a new analysis of traffic data and court records. The analysis showed that Black drivers received almost 37% of the tickets, despite Black people making up only about 16% of Florida's driving-eligible population. Law enforcement cited Black drivers at a rate of just over 11 tickets per 100,000 Black drivers, and cited white drivers at a rate of 3.9 tickets per 100,000 white drivers.

New York is the first state in the country to ban natural gas and other fossil fuels in most new buildings – a major win for climate advocates, but a move that could spark pushback from fossil fuel interests. Facing mounting pressure from environmental advocates and climate-minded voters, Gov. Kathy Hochul and Democratic lawmakers, who control the New York Senate and Assembly, approved the new $229 billion state budget containing the provision late Tuesday night. The law bans gas-powered stoves, furnaces and propane heating and effectively encourages the use of climate-friendly appliances such as heat pumps and induction stoves in most
