Biden responds at snail's pace

Buttigieg visits East Palestine, making children's books more woke and Humor Me winners

President Biden’s Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg finally made an appearance in East Palestine, Ohio to talk about the train derailment disaster but he lost his train of thought. Katie Pavlich said it didn’t go well.

He was asked if he should have come sooner and he responded, “I’m trying to strike the right balance.” And then, of course, he blamed Trump.

The Federalist’s Nathaniel Blake writes about famed children’s author Roald Dahl’s books are being re-edited to make them more inclusive. Dahl, who wrote, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Matilda, died in 1990 but his family has agreed for his work to be more woke.

What will the progressives ruin next?
