Biden, Unable to Manage the Present Wants to “Own the Future”
Joe Biden can barely manage a minute or two of unscripted dialogue, but he wants to “own the future.” His plan for that, of course, is spending a lot of your money.

The Romans Were the Masters of Inflation

THE CUPBOARD IS BARE: Blue States Can’t Keep Up the Free Food Gambit
