Biden’s Mistaken Visit to Canada
Commentary President Joe Biden is scheduled to visit Canada on the eve of March 23, which will be the first U.S. presidential visit since President Barack Obama’s trip in 2016.

Fauci Smears Republicans Who Don’t Like to Be Told What to Do
Commentary The documentary of Anthony Fauci on American Masters from PBS, funded by your tax dollars, keeps paying high returns.

FiveThirtyEight gives it a “B-“ while Media Bias/Fact Check anoints it with its “Leased Biased” rating, deeming it “very high” in the factual reporting department. Go figure.

Commentary Sometimes heroes show up when you least expect them, and this is about one of those times. Most of my active duty Air Force time was spent teaching aircraft crew chiefs at Sheppard Air Force Base in the early 1980s. On this particular summer day, I had my class out on the flight line…
