The recent back and forth by the White House press corps with the WH press secretary reveals that the shield that stopped most journalists from criticizing this regime has been removed. The press corps has been given the go-ahead to aggressively pursue the story surrounding the potential felonies that Joe Biden engaged in when he apparently stole government documents, some of which were marked as top secret or higher in sensitivity.

Nearly three years after bureaucrats shuttered businesses, forced people to stay home, and threatened fines for those who didn’t comply, all in the name of preventing the spread of a respiratory virus that cannot be controlled that way, the regime is quietly reviving the “forever pandemic.”

Kamala Harris is probably beginning to measure the windows at the White House residence for new curtains and drapes. What is swirling around Joe Biden is the beginning of the end of his Presidency. Biden stole government documents and gave some of them to the Penn Biden Center. The Penn documents were probably part of the cache of documents that Biden stored near his Corvette.

This is a mantra that we often hear from Democratic politicians. Often, they’ll try to justify a new tax by assuring the voters that it’s being enacted to “get the rich to pay their fair share.” Or they will condemn a tax cutting scheme as being one aimed to relieve the rich of their “fair share” burden of taxation.

The House of Representatives on Monday evening voted 221-210 to repeal funding for 87,000 IRS agents.

The so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ gave $79.6 billion to the IRS over the next 10 years.
These agents were expected to target middle class and low-income Americans. Without the 87,000 agents, the IRS had audited the poor at 5 times the rate of everyone else according to a new analysis of IRS data by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University.

There is no telling just how much tighter the squeeze would have been without this House action.

Promises made, promises kept.

Questions

Victor Davis Hanson has questions for the country. Every American, Democrat, Republican or independent should want answers to these questions. Perhaps Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Hakeem Jeffries, Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell would deign to answer them since all of this has taken place on their watch. If they won’t answer them, they should be removed from Congress along with any and all other leadership in Congress who facilitated this coup.
