Bengals Just Happy To Not Be In Ohio - The Babylon Bee

“I’m so overwhelmingly grateful. This is the greatest day of my life,” said quarterback Joe Burrow, wiping a single tear from his eye. “I can’t believe I’m not in Ohio anymore. This is what our team has worked for all year—the chance to escape that cold, frozen, endless, and empty cornfield, if only for a day.”

Some Democrats Push Biden to Embrace Normalcy as Covid-19 Cases Ease - WSJ

The elected officials are zeroing in on the March 1 speech as a pivotal opportunity for Mr. Biden to embrace dropping of mask mandates and other rules

Hey, I’ve read this book before!

Suspend the Gas Tax, They Cried - WSJ Opinion

The contradictions of climate politics keep piling up, and the latest is a call from Democratic Senators running for re-election this year to suspend the federal gas tax. Hello? Isn’t the point of Democratic climate plans to raise the price of fossil fuels so we use less? Or at least it is until rising gasoline prices begin to have political consequences.

Democratic polices are very good at raising prices on gas… and electricity… and heating oil… and cars… and refrigerators… and meat… and toilet paper… and milk…

The results are in: the most successful Administration at raising prices in 40 years!

We planned on getting them a trophy with a little businessman on top, like the Dundees, but it’s stuck on a container ship off the coast of Long Beach and now costs $8M.

Biden Warns Putin of ‘Swift and Severe Costs’ of Invading Ukraine - WSJ

“We have already gone through war and through the required training. Therefore, we are ready to greet the enemy not with flowers, but with Stingers, with Javelins and with NLAWs,” Ukrainian Armed Forces commander Lt. Gen. Valeriy Zaluzhny said in a Saturday address. “Welcome to hell!” he added in English.

It’s so refreshing to see a thriving democracy willing to stand and defend itself in the face of imposing odds.

On the road again.

Clarence Thomas Surprised To Hear How Important Black Representation On SCOTUS Is To Man Who Viciously Tried To Destroy Him - The Babylon Bee

Thomas, who had been smeared over sexual harassment claims that were never actually filed, was humiliated on live TV by Joe Biden who, at the time was a 49-year-old balding racist serving in the senate. Biden turned the confirmation hearing into a circus because he disagreed with Clarence Thomas’ views on a few things.

As Hunger Spreads in Afghanistan, Hospitals Fill With Premature, Dying Babies - WSJ

Half of the population faces acute hunger, according to the United Nations, with one million children in danger of dying from malnutrition. The economy is set to contract by another 20% this year, following last year’s plunge, the U.N. says.

Biden & Harris campaigned on morality. They were the steady hand, the ticket of American values and moral courage juxtaposed with the self-serving Trump.

When you look at the fact that a small detachment of American troops could have averted this humanitarian crisis, and the fact that Joe Biden continues to insist that he made the right call on a rapid and chaotic withdrawal, it’s clear just how empty the Biden-Harris campaign premise rings.

Joe Biden voted to commit forces to Afghanistan when he was in the Senate, but he wasn’t responsible for 20 years of mismanagement. His election presented an opportunity for a reset, and he didn’t take it.

We owed the people of Afghanistan our commitment to provide safety and stability as they made the long transition from despotic theocracy to emerging democracy. We’re still in Germany, Japan, and Korea decades late. The decision to leave directly caused this humanitarian crisis. Joe Biden not only owns the crisis, he created it.

But hey, that airlift was pretty cool, right?

Inflation Haunts the Biden Economy - WSJ Opinion

The economy needed support early in the pandemic. But Congress’s $900 billion Covid relief bill in December 2020 and the $1.9 trillion in spending that Democrats passed last March were overkill.

Stimulus payments, enhanced unemployment, expanded child tax credit and the real cost is 7.5% inflation. There’s no free lunch.

Rising Inflation Keeps Pressure on Fed to Frontload Rate Increases - WSJ

Fed officials in the months ahead are closely looking for signs that the month-over-month pace of price increases will slow.

Arresting inflation stops prices where they are. These high prices are the normal, which means the longer the Fed plays footsie, the more locked-in the pain.
