This was a warning. When he first came to power, all the talk was about the possibilities. As he leaves the scene, it's all about the dangers he faces.
Economist Brian Wesbury discusses the total student loan cost of the Biden administration on Varney & Company.
He pointed to tech billionaires who are very close to Donald Trump. They will have prime seats at the inauguration. Elon Musk is effectively the joint president. Almost every tech leader has paid tribute at Mar-a-Lago.

But to Biden, they are an oligarchy. A “technological industrial complex” that he says “threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms.” These are the people who have given America technological leadership around the world, but Biden calls them “robber barons”.

Last night we heard 18 minutes of warnings about Donald Trump without even mentioning him once.

“Make Money” host Charles Payne argues that day-trading by members of Congress destroys the concept of fairness.
