It's on: Joe Biden and Donald Trump have agreed to at least two debates, mostly on the current President's terms and turf. The first will take place on CNN, moderated by Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, televised Thursday, June 27 at 9pm ET. The second will be hosted by ABC on Tuesday, September 10. One of the stipulations from the Biden camp is no live studio audience, but might that setting actually help Trump stay under control and on...

Jon Caldara comments on the effective combination of humor and persuasion used by Jerry Seinfeld giving the keynote address at Duke University's commencement, including the golden line 'we are embarrassed of the things we should be proud of, and proud of the things we should be embarrassed about.' It's gold, pure gold, Jerry!

Kelly reveals that she never watched the iconic sitcom 'Seinfeld' in the 1990s, leading to audible gasps and protestations from both Jon and Ryan. Not that there's anything wrong with that... well, maybe there IS something wrong with that.

Also, on a more serious note, several Duke graduates boycott Jerry Seinfeld delivering the commencement address in Durham, presumably because he is Jewish. Why is there such open anti-Semitism run...

Nothing but good news on the Trump legal front, as the lawfare enlisted by President Biden and his acolytes continues to fall by the wayside.

In a stunning, but perhaps not shocking, development - illegal immigrants in an encampment on private property have a list of 13 demands before they'll accept accommodations in a shelter intended for their use.
