Amid record-high inflation and gas prices, Americans may soon have another economic crisis to worry about at the dinner table: a wheat shortage.President Joe Biden and his administration have already blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin and his invasion of Ukraine for soaring gas prices and general economic mayhem. Now, with Russia and Ukraine responsible for exporting more than one-quarter of the world’s wheat supplies, shoppers in the U.S. may start to feel the pain of the war at the grocery store, too.In 2019, Ukraine and Russia combined to supply about 25.4% of the world’s wheat,

Former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr said he did not believe Donald Trump would win a 2022 presidential election bid because he's petty and divisive, and that his former boss is not his pick for commander-in-chief. Barr, 71, criticized the former president during an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper on Friday, admitting that he knew Trump was going to lose in 2020 because of his temper. 'He's not my idea of a president,' Barr said. 'I felt he was going to lose the election because he was not controlling himself.

The two admitted Republicans who dared to venture into the snake pit of ABC’s “The View” on Friday were put on the spot by an emotional Sunny Hostin over why they are still members of a party that has been all but declared as enemies of the state by the Biden administration.The batty banshees were once again joined by Stephanie Grisham the former press secretary for first lady Melania Trump who may or may not be auditioning for the open spot at the table for a regular conservative punching bag that was vacated after Meghan McCain quit, and predictably, the topic turned to the former president.

I was cancelled from giving a speech at a conference at the Montessori Education Center of the Rockies, because of an article I wrote published by American Thinker criticizing some major Montessori organizations for supporting the social justice movement and implementing its positions. In the cancellation letter I received, I was told that they have plans to expand diversity, equity, and inclusion training for all their instructors every year, and have asked their instructors to integrate those principles into their content area. The following is the reply I sent to them:It is clear that I was discriminated against for disagreeing with the social justice movement.

On Wednesday, CNN's Chris Cillizza was hoping, desperately hoping that this could "finally," after all this time of utter ineptitude and awkwardness, be a "Kamala Harris moment" when she jetted off to Europe to address the crises caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. You could almost see Cillizza rubbing his worry beads of concern in "Is this, finally, Kamala Harris' moment?" It's been a rough first year as vice president for Kamala Harris. Beset by staff departures and lingering questions about how good a fit she is for the job, Harris has struggled to find her political footing.

While the media is focused the conflict in Ukraine, Congress has been occupied debating another massive $1.5 trillion omnibus spending bill.This is perhaps the last of attempts by the Democrats to push their agenda through before the GOP is expected to take over early next year.The bill they have got in front of them is divided into two sections: $730 billion dedicated to total non-defense spending, and was passed with 260 votes for and 171 against.
$782 billion dedicated to defense funding, and was passed with 361 votes for and 69 votes against. Within these bills, the GOP was able to retain $2 billion of previously-allocated border wall construction funds.

Conservative leaders are rallying around National Republican Senatorial Committee chairman Rick Scott’s (R-FL) “11-Point Plan to Rescue America.”Eighty-eight conservative leaders from the Conservative Action Project signed a memo supporting Scott’s plan titled “Conservatives Applaud Sen. Rick Scott’s Plan to Rescue America.”The memo said: Politicians should tell voters what they are for, what they plan to do, and then they have to do it. This is the clarity – and the accountability – that voters want to see from their elected leaders. Conservatives should be talking about our ideas as much, if not more, than we talk about Democratic missteps and overreach.

“CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell is in third place in the ratings, but sources at the network gripe that she’s got a first-class attitude — even as she faces getting sidelined by her sharp-elbowed, bean-counting boss.CBS News co-president Neeraj Khemlani — who has been slashing costs in a bid to make the network profitable — is eyeing O’Donnell, who reportedly makes between $6 million and $8 million a year, and whose contract is set to expire this spring, sources told The Post.“The next big decision from him is revamping the ‘Evening News,’” said a CBS insider, who explained that the network can find a cheaper alternative
