The free market reforms instituted by The Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos seem to have taken a firm hold as its old guard commentariat is now openly repudiating the pipe dreams of socialism.

On Saturday night's The Weekend: Primetime on MS NOW, contributor Dean Obeidallah delivered yet another unhinged smear, declaring Vice President JD Vance the "nice, warm, softer side of fascism." Notably, none of the hosts pushed back on the outrageous accusation. The segment began with a discussion of supposed Democrat messaging problems on inflation. After playing a clip of Vance on The View…

For all the media bluster that Elon Musk’s hostile takeover of Twitter could ultimately nuke his net worth, the goalposts have since been moved and those same media talking heads are having a meltdown over the fact that the world’s richest man just proved all of them wrong.

Amidst his cacophony of bad takes, CNN host Fareed Zakaria somehow manages to illustrate the “broken clock is right twice a day” idiom at times when lefty politicos’ illusory sense of economics becomes too asinine to ignore. Enter, California.

On Saturday's edition of The Weekend: Primetime, co-host Elise Jordan casually dropped a jaw-dropping detail about one of the network's own: "Our senior producer Johanna questions it [the Moon landing.]"

On MS NOW’s “The Weekend,” the panel engaged in a full-throated class-warfare kvetch over Elon Musk becoming the world’s first trillionaire. Co-host Eugene Daniels grew visibly agitated as economist Justin Wolfers claimed Musk “bought” the 2024 election for Donald Trump with a $250 million investment. Daniels declared the discussion made him “very angry” — not at Wolfers, but at the country…

Imagine being so mentally polluted (no pun intended) by your disdain for people who disagree with your climate fanaticism that you turn them into carbon footprint monsters in their obituaries? That’s exactly what leftist media outlets did writ large upon the passing of former ExxonMobil CEO Lee Raymond.

It doesn’t matter what day of the week it is. The New York Times will never give President Donald Trump’s economy the time of day, even if the data is clearly pointing to a significant upswing.

A University of Michigan economist is sending a clear message to all the media and intelligentsia panicians following the release of a blockbuster May jobs report: It’s time to cut it out. Justin Wolfers joined ABC News Live on Friday morning to break down the explosive news that the U.S. economy added 172,000 jobs in May, and cut to the chase: “I think the thing this will really do is it's…

Putting communist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s rent-control abomination of an agenda and capitalism in the same context as if they’re synonymous with one another is some crazy work, CNN.

Apparently even the most rabid left-wing politicians can draw reality checks from The New York Times when their radical agendas end up leaving their economies in the lurch.

Is your business “needed”? Bizarrely, in many states, if you want to start a business, you first must convince bureaucrats that your business is “needed.” Four years ago, Louisiana blocked social worker Ursula Newell-Davis from helping kids with special needs. Bureaucrats said she hadn’t proved her business was needed. “Why does the state of Louisiana have the right to stop me from doing what…

Insipid former New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman is batting a thousand with the level of maniacal things he’s spewed onto the internet within just a 24-hour window.

Is pseudo-economics savant Paul Krugman rage-baiting when he puts an asinine comparison of President Donald Trump’s enforcement of immigration law to the hideous antisemitic “pogroms” of the 19th-20th centuries in writing or is he so stupid he actually believes it? You decide.
