Long before the age of lawfare embodied by trials like those of Hunter Biden and Donald Trump, politicians were supposed to at least pretend to address the concerns of the voters.
Ukraine As Performance Art
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a former actor, has quite the knack for strange theater of the absurd. Now he’s hosting a “peace summit” which doesn’t invite his adversary, Russia, and which his main supporter, President Joe Biden, is refusing to attend. That, plus the fact that Ukraine says it doesn’t want peace.
I Would Vote If I Could Afford To
President Biden’s reelection campaign is being hampered by stubbornly high prices and frozen wages, the ultimate economic phenomenon that makes consumers feel that the economy isn’t doing well.
Crack Is Looking Good
Joe Biden says that he won’t pardon his son Hunter Biden even if he’s convicted at his trial in Delaware for falsely stating that he was not addicted to drugs when he bought a gun in 2018.
Trump’s War on Contraception
Donald Trump’s plan for his second term includes a push to make it harder to obtain birth control. This follows several other Republican-led initiatives to make it more difficult for Americans to use contraception, including condoms. What’s next, forced impregnation? Guns and marijuana, on the other hand, are still easy to get.
