The Navy has run out of pants for its working uniform, and it won’t get more until October

By Konstantin Toropin | Military.com The Navy is dealing with what could be called a sartorial crisis: The sea service has run out of pants. And it may not get more for months. Specifically, service officials confirmed Friday that pants for the Navy Working Uniform, or NWU, the go-to uniform for most sailors, are out of stock at Navy Exchanges. Courtney Williams, a spokeswoman for the Navy's Exchange Service Command, told Military.com that it is "experiencing severe shortages of NWU trousers" both in physical stores and online.

Budget watchdog: Harris’ economic plan would add over $1.7T to national debt

By Eric Revell  | Fox Business A key part of Vice President Kamala Harris' newly released economic agenda would add $1.7 trillion to America's growing national debt, according to a budget watchdog. The plan, dubbed an "Agenda to Lower Costs for American Families," was released Friday as Harris lays out her platform in her campaign for president. It includes expansions of the Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit, as well as an extension of the health insurance premium subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (aka ObamaCare) that are due to expire at the end of next year. It would also establish a new $25,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers, expand tax credits for building affordable housing, create a $40 billion housing innovation fund, and seek to lower prescription d...

Sloan: Who loses if Harris wins?

By Kelly Sloan | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Poor Joe Biden. I mean, really, one has to feel at least a little sorry for the guy. One minute the entire Democratic establishment (including, of course, the media) is wallowing in despair over their fortunes this November with Biden remaining at the helm; within a matter of hours, all is sunshine and light in Democrat World, now that Biden --  once the revered elder stateman of the Democratic left, “Joe from Scranton” who could do no wrong in the eyes of the Party and the New York Times  -- has been shunted aside.  That adulatory exuberance and reverential devotion is now being showered on Kamala Harris and her new sidekick Tim Walz. Everyone, and I mean everyone, within the Democratic universe if positively giddy tha...

After Trump says Harris presidency could lead to ‘1929-style depression’, former WH economist warns it could ‘shut down’ entire economy

By Kayla Bailey | Fox Business A former White House economist is sounding the alarm on Vice President Kamala Harris' economic agenda after former President Trump warned the U.S. would suffer a "1929-style depression" under a Harris presidency. "My guess is that a lot of the things she said in the past about what she really wants to do, like the Green New Deal, for example… getting carbon-neutral by 2030 – all that kind of stuff would cause a deep recession toward carbon," Kevin Hassett told "The Big Money Show" Thursday.  "Carbon-neutral by 2030 is almost impossible. 75% of our electricity comes from burning fossil fuels. So how are they going to do that if they try it? That you're just going to have to shut down the economy?" READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX BUSINESS...

Mackowiak: Government control of retirement is not the answer

By Matt Mackowiak  | Commentary, TownHall.com The road to retirement hinges on two distinct paths: building upon the progress we've achieved over the past 50 years or transitioning to a fully government-run system. Americans have suffered in recent years with less money in their pockets amid a struggling economy, and with that struggle comes strong uncertainty about the future of their retirement. The media has painted a grim picture of America's retirement prospects despite the fact that Baby Boomers are the richest retiring generation in U.S. history, and young people are saving earlier than any generation before them. Far-left politicians like Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) are capitalizing on the fear-mongering to push a partisan agenda demanding greater government control of...

Kamala Harris’ economic plan: $1.7T in handouts, fed ban on grocery store ‘price gouging’

By Diana Glebova, Josh Christenson and Victoria Churchill | The New York Post Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday unveiled the economic policies she would enact in her first 100 days in office — and it comes with a whopping estimated $1.7 trillion in handouts, as well as government price controls on groceries amid ravaging Biden-Harris administration inflation. Her economic plan includes measures to dole out $25,000 to help first-time homeowners with their down payments and give up to a $6,000 tax breaks for lower and middle-income families who have a child in their first year of life. Harris did not say what incomes qualify as “lower” and “middle.” The housing subsidies alone are “absolutely inflationary” and would “push a $2 trillion dollar deficit even higher,” Bri...

As California AG, Kamala Harris helped illegal alien become nation’s first ‘undocumented’ lawyer

By Judicial Watch Years before her catastrophic failure as the Biden administration’s border czar, Vice President Kamala Harris helped an illegal alien become the nation’s first undocumented lawyer while she was California’s top law enforcement official. In a court brief filed during the illegal alien’s years-long legal battle to obtain a law license, then California Attorney General Harris wrote: “it is not a crime either to be present or to work in the United States without immigration status.” Even the Obama administration opposed an illegal immigrant practicing law in the United States and the Department of Justice (DOJ) challenged it, arguing that a 1996 immigration reform law precludes undocumented aliens from receiving commercial and professional licenses issued by states a...

Sen. Tim Scott: ‘The American people are smarter than Kamala Harris when it comes to the economy’

By Julia Johnson  | Fox Business Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., shredded Vice President Kamala Harris' economic proposal on Friday, which laid out a sweeping overhaul including broad cross-industry price-fixing and $25,000 government-subsidized down payments for first-time home buyers.  "The American people are smarter than Kamala Harris when it comes to the economy," the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Ranking Member told Fox News Digital in an interview.  "The ‘price-gouging’ that they've experienced has come at the hands of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden," Scott said. "When you artificially stimulate the economy by the federal government and the Democrats spending trillions of dollars, the net effect is high inflation, high interest, high demand and lower sup...

Harris, Biden talk big on ‘Big Pharma’, but have accepted combined $11M in campaign donations since 1990

By Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell  | Commentary, The Daily Signal President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris slammed Big Pharma for “inflating the price of lifesaving medications” in a speech Thursday in Largo, Maryland. But Biden and Harris’ congressional campaigns received $9 million and $2 million, respectively, from 1990-2024. “Folks, this is a fight all of us have been fighting for a long time,” Biden said. “Thinking about Big Pharma, we pay more for prescription drugs, it’s not hyperbole, we pay more for prescription drugs than any advanced nation in the world.” Despite Biden and Harris’ strong anti-Big Pharma rhetoric, Biden was the top congressional recipient of donations from pharmaceuticals and health care products from 1990-2024, accepting more than $9 ...
