Democrats false allegations that GOP is threat to democracyDavid Zukerman: The January/February issue of *The Atlantic *warns that Donald Trump, in 2024, may bring about a "democratic collapse."

Biden's twisted story of the twisters
Anthony Watts: Speaking in Wilmington, Delaware on Saturday, President Joe Biden blamed the recent deadly tornado outbreak in Kentucky on “climate change.” Biden stated, “The fact is we all know everything is more intense when the climate is warming and obviously it has some impact here.” Biden’s statement is laughably inept and easily disproved. All one has to do is look past the opinions, pronouncements, and hand waving and concentrate on what science and data actually say about the issues. First, the top five deadliest tornadoes in America all occurred between 1840 and 1936... read more
