It is extremely unlikely that Biden’s reforms will pass. Some proposals would need legislation, which the current House of Representatives won’t pass. Other reforms would need a Constitutional amendment, which would be even harder to get through.

There is no small irony in that the same government that tried to establish a disinformation governance board has lost so much of the public’s trust because of its own disinformation.

Biden’s excuse tour is only reminding millions of voters of why they think he’s too old to be president for four more years.

Recent SCOTUS decisions are going to go a long way toward gradually rolling back the administrative state and the power of unelected bureaucrats.

Biden and his family’s vanity and quest to remain in power, even though it’s clear to most voters he should step down, have put the Democratic Party in an awful position.

Trump is using the conviction to attract dollars and the sympathy vote. And it’s plausible that many Black voters, who have also felt targeted by the justice system, will respond positively.
