Pelosi: “You Couldn’t Pay Me a Billion Dollars to run for Speaker Again”
Daniel Greenfield
Does Nancy really want to test how deep China’s pockets are? But apparently, Pelosi was unhappy to be part of the Mean Girls caucus. ‘Pelosi was the only Democrat in the chamber — the only Democrat alive — who had already served as Speaker, who had shown she could do the legislative arithmetic and twist the…

California Dems Propose 4-Day Work Week
Daniel Greenfield
What happens when one party has total control over a state while its only form of political competitiveness comes from adopting increasingly leftist positions? California isn’t the only example, but it may be the single most notorious one. The idea of a 32-hour full-time work week is being debated in the California State Legislature. “Debated.”…

Communist China Building Up Its Nuclear Arsenal for Iimminent Conflict
Daniel Greenfield
I’m skeptical of the 90% of the spin in the Wall Street Journal article which attributes this as a response to the Ukraine conflict. The Chinese nuclear effort long predates Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but the U.S.’s wariness about getting directly involved in the war there has likely reinforced Beijing’s decision to put greater emphasis on…

Milley’s Dishonest Answer on Afghanistan-Ukraine Invasion Link
Daniel Greenfield
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley didn’t hesitate to bash Trump, but he’s working overtime to protect Biden over the linkage between Afghanistan and Ukraine. When pressed by Sen. Marsha Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican, on the Afghanistan withdrawal and whether it played a part in Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine, Milley…

People in Delaware Don’t Like Joe Biden
Daniel Greenfield
Apparently building Amtrak stations isn’t everything. This is awkward news for Biden who keeps using Delaware to invent a fake middle-class and local background. But people in Delaware are no more fond of Biden than anywhere else. The Civicqs survey says that Biden’s job approval is deep underwater in Delaware with 52% disapproving and only 38% approving.…

Biden Planned to Waive Terror Designation on Iran’s IRGC Even As IRGC May Have Infiltrated Secret Service
Daniel Greenfield
I predicted this when the story first broke though apparently one of the men was also suggesting that he had ties to Pakistani intelligence. Investigators alleged Arian Taherzadeh, 40, and Haider Ali, 35, posed as various officers and employees of the U.S. government, including members of federal law enforcement agencies, since February 2020 and duped…

Why Are Biden and NATO Suddenly Willing to Provide Ukraine w/Heavy Weapons and Air Defense Systems?
Daniel Greenfield
Not all that long ago any such efforts were stymied by administration pressure and the reluctance of NATO members. Now Slovakia is providing its S-300 defense system to Ukraine while we’re sending them Patriot missiles. And NATO is urging members to provide heavy weapons. Why the shift? The most obvious answer is that Russia is…

Ketanji Brown Jackson Vows to Represent 6.6% of America on Supreme Court
Daniel Greenfield
Biden promised black voters in South Carolina he would pick a black woman. And he did. The result doesn’t represent America, the law or the Constitution, just people who fit a particular identity group. And that’s the victory message that Ketanji Brown Jackson had in her speech. “It has taken 232 years and 115 prior appointments for…

Puerto Rico is Blacked Out Again… And the Media Can’t Blame Trump
Daniel Greenfield
Puerto Rico is a permanent disaster area. But it’s only the fault of the guy in the White House when he’s a Republican. Now that there’s a Democrat, Puerto Rico being blacked out for two days is just one of those things. It happens. Puerto Rico was still reeling Friday from a massive blackout that initially…

James Biden Could Do Much More Damage Than Hunter
Daniel Greenfield
I had argued previously that James Biden, Joe’s brother, had more damaging financial scandals than Hunter. And, unlike Hunter, he can’t play the crack card. The degeneracy and drug use that Republicans bet on with Hunter quickly turned into a defense. If Hunter was an out-of-control crackhead, then he couldn’t be expected not to commit…
