Wall Street Journal

If you thought that George Soros's empire was taking a break to lick its wounds following President Donald Trump’s victory in November, think again. A group backed by the notorious left-wing billionaire is unleashing a fortune to finally turn the state of Texas into a Democrat stronghold.

Give her credit: Chief executive Katherine Maher is not afraid to look ridiculous on her quest to save National Public Radio from the federal chopping block. On Thursday’s edition of the Wall Street Journal’s podcast, hosted by Ryan Knutson and Jessica Mendoza, Maher claimed "we are consistently found to be centrist in reporting....we are a nonpartisan news organization."

Before basketball’s 24-second rule, there was a tactic called freezing the ball. The team that was ahead would attempt to run out the clock by holding onto the ball as long as it could to deny the opposing team an opportunity to score. That looks like what Iran is again doing – “freezing” negotiations while finishing the final stages of nuclear enrichment on the way to building a deliverable…

A recent report from the American Enterprise Institute summarizes results from the most recent National Assessment of Educational Progress — also known as the nation’s report card. The test, given every two years, reports scores of our nation’s children in reading and math at the fourth grade and eighth grade levels. AEI characterizes the most recent results as a “five-alarm fire.” I call it…

The 36 million who watched President Donald Trump’s address to Congress also watched as Congressional Black Caucus member, Rep. Al Green, shook his cane and shouted at the president. When he refused to desist, Speaker Mike Johnson ordered him removed from the chamber. Two days later, in a bipartisan vote, the House censured Green.

The credit card statement contained an unfamiliar charge. I called the fraud department which canceled the payment and immediately sent me a new card. If only the federal government responded with similar alacrity. Instead, the reaction from the exposure and rooting out of fraud – mostly from Democrats – has been shouting profanities and demonstrating outside federal government buildings. Some…

At less than three weeks into the second Trump administration, the Wall Street Journal somehow discerned on Friday that "The Mood of the American Consumer is Souring." But they only found one Trump voter whose mood had soured. 

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening news networks completely ignored new damning data that bookended Bidenomics as arguably the dumbest set of economic policies the U.S. experienced in its history 

An essay appeared recently in The Wall Street Journal under the headline “What Happens When a Whole Generation Never Grows Up?”Behavior that has always been understood to define what it means to be an adult is disappearing among America’s younger generations. Institutions always seen as the sinews that define and hold together a society — homeownership, marriage, children — no longer…

As the Trace Adkins song goes, you’re going to miss this, you’re going to want this back. Deep down, that’s surely the way at least some feel about the bizarre, entertaining, meandering, only occasionally informative, and stammering White House press briefings in 2024 under Karine Jean-Pierre. With part one having covered 10 moments from January to May, this blog contains the second 10…

Filmmaker Adam McKay -- best known for making films like Anchorman with Will Ferrell -- comes unglued on Twitter, suggesting the movie musical "Wicked" is all about radicalization and fascism, so "If America keeps going on the track it is I wouldn’t be surprised to see the movie banned in 3-5 years." Which movies were banned under Trump in the first term?

CNN keeps stamping on their sour grapes over the Trump victory. In a CNN This Morning segment on corporate donations to the Trump inauguration, host Danny Freeman touted how The Wall Street Journal  "identified at least 11 companies and trade associations who are backing the inauguration, despite once saying they would not donate to him after the January 6th…

Even after The Wall Street Journal reported how Joe Biden’s staff hid his cognitive decline, there wasn’t a single question at the White House briefing. Hugh Hewitt upset knee-jerk defenders of the media when he said “with the exception of Peter Doocy, I would ban everyone from the White House press room who has been there for the past four years, because they are obviously of no use…

Now that the coast is (largely) clear, the liberal media and their Biden administration sources have increasingly come out of the woodwork to sound off on the President’s reportedly paper-thin mental fitness to have fully served the last four years. With 50 sources, Thursday’s Wall Street Journal item was devastating, but of no concern to ABC, CBS, and NBC on their flagship newscasts…
