Democrats and police have steadily drifted apart since then-Sen. Joe Biden sponsored the 1994 crime bill. In the decades since, the party has declared war on police. Criticizing their job performance with broad brush strokes is routine. Emboldened by the hard left turn, activist prosecutors like Baltimore’s Marilyn Mosby left entire police departments unable or unwilling to do their […]
As Hot Air’s Karen Townsend notes, President Joe Biden is fond of storytelling. He’s well known for embellishing crucial details for dramatic effect. And it appears he’s done it again. While speaking to U.S. Naval Academy graduates at this weekend’s commencement ceremony, the commander-in-chief attempted to regale the crowd with a story about whether to serve his country or build […]

Former Florida Congressman Allen West is no stranger to controversy. The outspoken conservative rose to prominence during the Tea Party wave of 2010.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters that President Joe Biden understands the “passion” behind pro-abortion protests. But that’s not all. The threat posed by rowdy demonstrators has forced police to turn the Supreme Court into a fortress and provide the justices with additional security from the U.S. Marshals Service.
