OPINION: Team Biden's Rigid Control of the Press

From the right

BY TIM GRAHAM

Everyone knew instinctively that the Biden White House would get enormous cooperation and positive media coverage from the “news” media, given that it follows the alleged democracy-darkening Donald Trump days. But Team Biden’s control of the narrative can look more like a stranglehold.

On May 10, Politico revealed that “If you’ve read a quote from an administration official in a newspaper or a wire story recently, there’s a good chance that the White House communications team had an opportunity to edit it first.”

I Remember Dad: Studying Chemistry

By Richard Mabey Jr.

In mid September of 1969, in the start of my junior year at Boonton High School, I got a D on my first chemistry quiz. I was devastated. It was the first time that I had ever gotten a grade of D, in my entire life. My world was falling apart. A great moral and ethical dilemma suddenly fell upon me, not as a feather floating downward to my shoulders, but rather as the weight of a heavy boat anchor suddenly descending upon me at full speed. The question haunted me, should I tell my mom and dad about my D, or just rip up my test paper and throw it in the trash can at school?

Health Hacks for Living Life to the Fullest

(BPT) – It’s hard to keep up with the latest health and wellness trends, especially with so much conflicting information out there. In reality, one way to help navigate which approach to health and wellness is right for you is as simple as understanding the science behind giving your body what it needs – not the latest trends. While many fads may offer positive benefits, what’s most important is much easier to follow than the latest health craze.
