In what’s now being called the “Great Resignation,” a record number of employees have quit their jobs since the lockdowns started. Month after month since 2020, the number of people leaving jobs voluntarily has broken historical records. All told, some 36.3 million people quit in 2020.

Plenty of Americans have already learned to live with COVID-19, but many posturing elites have refused to ease up on the fearmongering and protocols, and thus a chunk of largely blue America remains paralyzed by an endemic virus. After nearly two years of this maddening standoff, an unlikely liberator could break free those stuck in the COVID era and usher…

“Public health” is a nice, altruistic-sounding phrase, but more often than not, it’s just an amorphous category, controlled by a select group of individuals. Yielding dominion to those unelected individuals often creates a honeypot for any malicious actor who intends to leverage “public health” for personal gain. There is perhaps no better example of this than the relationship between the…

Oregon looks to be finally delivering on a proposal it made nearly a year ago: to change its face masking requirements from a temporary order to a “permanent” rule. The current indoor rule is temporary, meaning it can’t be in place for more than 180 days, so making the rule “permanent” would allow the state to keep it in place…

Once upon a time, long ago, there was an American president who we were told was directly responsible for the spread of a highly contagious, airborne virus. Today, we’re told of the same virus, but with a new president, “Well, whaddya do?” Remember when containing and depressing the coronavirus was simply a matter of nationwide testing and “contact tracing,” plus…

California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signature on a new law creating 100-foot radius speech buffer zones around any facility that provides any kind of vaccine makes the rushed legislation official, but not just.

You probably saw that the Department of Labor’s September jobs report came out last week and that it was, in a word, abysmal. As one CNBC panelist reacted, “Woah … that is real low.” When President Joe Biden gave a speech addressing the report on Friday, he painted a rosy picture, of course, spinning the numbers into a glowing reflection…

If you asked President Joe Biden right now where we are in the pandemic, how confident are you that you would get an even slightly intelligible answer? What if you asked media sex god Dr. Anthony Fauci? No one at this point can possibly expect that they would get a meaningful response. Biden was elected with the expectation, thanks to…

You’d better watch out. You’d better not cry. You’d better keep masking for the rest of your life. Anthony Fauci is coming to town — this time with the doom-and-gloom tidings that it’s “too soon to tell” whether we’ll be able to celebrate Christmas this year. Although he said it with a straight face, the entire self-serious interview was laughable…

Things are going first-rate for President Joe Biden and Democrats, with rockets raining down on the airport in Kabul, where Americans are trying to escape, and a virus that continues to spread, killing thousands of people every week.

In between cable news interviews and performing TikTok dance routines, health care workers have also started protesting, and it raises the question: When do all these people do their actual jobs and, you know, provide health care?
