Here’s What The Corporate Media And Biden DOJ Aren’t Telling You About Sam Bankman-Fried

By Jason Cohen Legacy media outlets and President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) neglected to mention that Sam Bankman-Fried was a top donor to Democrat-aligned causes in their releases on the disgraced cryptocurrency tycoon’s sentencing Thursday. Bankman-Fried contributed more than $37 million overwhelmingly to support Democrat-aligned causes during the 2022 midterm election cycle, according to OpenSecrets. Yet […]

If You Don’t Build It, They Will Come: The BorderLine

By Simon Hankinson Over the past 18 months, The Daily Signal’s Virginia Allen and I have visited the border from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. What we saw in all our travels was the same: President Joe Biden’s deliberate abandonment of every measure that has worked in the past to reduce incentives for illegal immigration, combined […]

The Panic Over Climate Change Is Not Catching On

By Thomas C. Patterson The Great Climate Change Revolution is headed for failure. You can tell that because it is already in big trouble before the ultimate heavy lifting has even started. International accords, (i.e. Paris Agreement) passed with great fanfare to ensure cooperation on emissions reductions, are ignored by most of the signers, notably […]

Weekend Read: ‘They Are Miles Ahead’: Despite ‘Election Integrity’ Hype, GOP Could Be Walking Into 2024 Legal Buzzsaw

By Reagan Reese Republicans are walking a tightrope heading into the 2024 election. They must show their base that they are fighting hard on the issue of election integrity, which many conservatives believe cost former President Donald Trump his 2020 re-election bid.

The RNC Is Right: Anyone Who Can’t Recognize Flaws In 2020 Is Unfit To Help Republicans Win

By Brianna Lyman Winning requires first acknowledging past and existing problems. The Republican National Committee (RNC) is reportedly asking prospective employees what they think about the 2020 election — as they should.

Trump-Reagan Fusion Can Win the New Cold War

By Peter Berkowitz Since Donald Trump’s rise within Republican ranks, conservatives have divided into two competing foreign policy camps. One contends that Trump’s approach suits the world in which we live and supersedes previous GOP national security and foreign affairs outlooks. A smaller contingent contends that Ronald Reagan’s understanding of America and his conduct of […]

China’s Economic Facade is Cracking

By Samuel Gregg Not so long ago, commentators across the political spectrum were warning us that China’s economy was set to surpass America’s. The United States needed, one Senator claimed, “a 21st -century pro-American industrial policy,” to ward off this existential threat. Such rhetoric was reminiscent of the late-1980s, when a slew of books appeared to warn […]

The Real Ronna McDaniel Controversy: Why Does The Former RNC Chair Want To Join Corrupt Corporate Media?

By Christopher Jacobs Rather than asking why NBC decided to hire McDaniel, we should ask why McDaniel wanted to join such an obviously corrupted institution. The recent announcement that former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna Romney McDaniel will join NBC News as a contributor has brought much controversy, much of it misplaced. Rather than asking […]

Feds Have Showered Blue State With Tax Dollars to Fix Homelessness. It Keeps Getting Worse.

By Robert Schmad A plethora of federal agencies have spent well over $200 million attempting to alleviate homelessness in Washington state over the past 17 years, only for the number of people living on the streets to keep rising.

The Bigger Meaning of Schumer’s Speech in a Nutshell

By Marvin A. Treiger Senator Schumer’s speech during which he called for “regime change” in the government of a democratic ally on the floor of the Senate was unprecedented in American history.
