Joe Biden’s Build Back Better plan might be stalled in Congress, but Hunter Biden’s Build Back Bigger (as in bigger bank account) plan seems to be going quite nicely.

Just as with Jimmy Carter before him, Joe Biden is having a hard time managing his coalition. The latest flashpoint issue is immigration. Yet even as he struggles to keep Democrats in his tent, the rest of the country is drifting away.

The rich play by the rules they like for themselves and seek to make the rest of us live by the rules they wish to impose.

Last week’s hearings were a discouraging reminder that the Democrats who lead Congress aren’t interested in doing much that would make a Democratic president look bad.

The U.S. military triumphs when it learns the lessons of defeat and points them toward future victories.

Remember Afghanistan? The Main Stream Media doesn’t want you to because it could hurt Joe Biden. So it’s doing its best to change the subject.

When brave young Americans put their trust in Uncle Sam, Uncle Sam should do everything possible to keep their trust.

It’s bad enough that Kabul in 2021 is an acid-trip of bad nostalgia to Saigon in 1975. It would be even worse if Kabul turns into a replay of Tehran in 1979, complete with hostages on videos, ransom demands, agonizing negotiations, and perhaps valiant but doomed rescue attempts.

Here’s what Joe Biden should do if he is actually serious about handling the pandemic and not just playing politics.

Joe Biden promised that the “materials and products” in his infrastructure plan would be Made in America. But the bill currently drafted contains a huge loophole that can send those jobs to China.

If the China is responsible for the virus, then China should be liable for its costs. Human ethics, common sense, and even international law tell us that the communist regime in Beijing should pay for the harm it caused. Here’s how the U.S. and the world could seek compensation.

The New York Times admits that Joe Biden’s promised “green jobs” could actually be “more akin to an Amazon warehouse or a fleet of Uber drivers: grueling work schedules, few unions, middling wages and limited benefits.”

Joe Biden seems determined to repeat all the inflationary mistakes of his Democratic predecessor Jimmy Carter.

The future of space exploration will likely be some sort of public-private partnership. If space-bound billionaires are willing to do their part for the nation and if American political leaders have the vision to see space travel as a 1492-like opportunity, then this could be the beginning of a new epoch of American Greatness. 

If there’s a pipeline of big-money influence into the Biden White House, are we supposed to feel better if the exact nature of the flow within that pipeline is secret?  

Of everything that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has accomplished in his less than three years in office, his reform of civics education may be his greatest because it goes right to the heart of who we are and who we should be as Americans. 

The Covid-19 pandemic should force a civilization-wide assessment of all dangerous and potentially unethical biological research, including Dr. Fauci’s role in approving this research.

Mean Streets  Here at Breitbart News, we’ve noted some of the similarities between the 46th president, Joe Biden, and the 39th president, Jimmy Carter—on energy and the environment, on inflation, and on foreign policy.  And now, we can turn to

The parallels between American conservatives and British conservatives are strong and more recently even stronger, as the two parties have taken a populist, pro-worker, anti-globalist turn. 

Wokeism is well-funded and trendy with wealthy elites. But the woke One Percenters are nowhere near a majority. This provides an opportunity for Republicans to rally Americans of all backgrounds into an anti-woke coalition.

Long before John Kerry allegedly shared information with Iran, Ted Kennedy allegedly cozied up with the Soviets.

Just as Jimmy Carter was played by the Soviet Union in the SALT II agreement, Joe Biden is getting played by China in his climate agreement.

Red states should band together to seek federalist legal protection from the woke corporate power flowing out of the elite blue state bastions.

Joe Biden’s policies are echoing Jimmy Carter’s in what’s typically the most important issue-area for any president: economic policy.

Twitter can be a career derailing temptation, and Biden appointees keep biting into that dopamine apple.

As the Seuss Saga plays itself out, we are seeing that while the left can win the first battle, the right can win the war. 

The immigration crisis is driven by three factors: the United States is the richest country in the world, the most wide-open country in the world, and one of the least-densely populated countries in the world.

Labor unions have historically been the bulwark against socialism and communism, and history may repeat itself if Republicans seize the moment.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) has released an 80-page report, “Beat China: Targeted Decoupling and the Economic Long War,” which, along with other key documents, could serve as a guide for Americans as they think about how to compete with China. 

Tech savvy activists bursting with new ideas can change electioneering just as surely as the GameStop Redditors have changed investing.

Democrats are torn between the Biden administration’s desire for Congress to get moving on its agenda and the Democratic base’s “loathing” of the former president.

The simple genius of Stacey Abrams’ strategy is that it’s all about the numbers. Strip away the hoopla of campaigning, and the only thing that matters is getting people registered and getting them to vote—in person, by mail, whatever it takes.

The Republican romance with Big Tech didn’t work out as planned. The Big Techsters, confident of kneejerk Republican support for low taxes and deregulation, were free to follow their bliss on avant-garde woke social issues. In other words, the GOP was safeguarding Big Tech, while the Techsters, taking Republicans for granted, acted like good Democrats.  

On the Menu  There’s an old joke: If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.  That is, if you aren’t a player in the process, then you’re the one being played.  Just in the last three months, Americans

Two important cases illustrate the black-box opaqueness of the People’s Republic of China: the disappearance of billionaire Jack Ma and the origin of Covid-19.
