Republicans, fight for President Trump and equal justice

This week, Democrats just passed a massive expansion of government that will grow government, increase inflation, raise taxes, and unleash 87,000 Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agents on Americans. Even though Democrats have the slimmest of margins in Congress, and do not have a political mandate, they passed another piece of their radical agenda.

Biden’s 87,000 new IRS agents may be short-lived

President Joe Biden and ‘conservative’ Democrat Joe Manchin’s alleged inflation fighting legislation passed through the Senate this past weekend. It will be surprising to many Americans that the inflation fight includes hiring 87,000 new Internal Revenue Service agents, who are supposed to squeeze $200 billion out of their pockets over the next ten years.
This is the Democrats plan to stop American’s wallets from inflating – IRS audits.

Ignore media spin about jobs, economy is dreadful

During the Trump administration, the liberal media always tried to discount any positive news and spin events in the worst way for the President. They hated Trump and attempted to destroy him.
These liberal media “watchdogs” have become today’s “lapdogs.” Instead of reporting factually, the liberal media strive to find “positive” news to boost the sagging poll numbers for President Joe Biden and the Democrats.

Are baseball and politics intertwined?

We are halfway through the current baseball season, and congressional elections are just a few months away. So just what is America’s favorite pastime? Is it politics or baseball? Politics has always been a major spectator sport, particularly here in my home state of Louisiana. But don’t sell baseball short. Not only has baseball been around longer than any of America’s professional team sports, the game’s highs and lows have been injected in national politics almost from the sport’s inception.

After Covid, pharmaceutical price controls will only lead to more drug shortages amid outsourcing

In President Joe Biden’s so-called Inflation Reduction Act, there are $288 billion of price controls for the Medicare Part D prescriptions drug benefit that are intended in part to offset the cost of $369 billion of green energy subsidies and a $69 billion Obamacare extension.
The goal of the price controls is to lower the price Medicare pays for certain drugs by allowing for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to negotiate directly with drug manufacturers.
