Buried the Lede! Kari Lake's Democrat Opponent Skips Debate (Again)
The Arizona Republic's coverage of the Arizona PBS debate exemplifies media bias, according to this blog. Despite Democrat Ruben Gallego's absence, the article by Ronald J.

For the second day in a row, CNN's New Day let the newly-elected far-left Manhattan DA off the hook regarding his most radical soft-on-crime policies.

CNN Rushes to Defend Outrageous Soft-on-Crime Policies of Manhattan DA

On Fox & Friends, Brian Kilmeade says of Kamala Harris: "To me, this is a lack of performance. This is a lack of interest. This is laziness. And this is a complaint-a-holic who just wants to be anointed president, and she's angry that she's not."

MSNBC Contributor: Arbery Convictions 'The Very Least We're Owed'
Interviewed by Jonathan Capehart on The 11th Hour regarding the outcome of the trial of the three men charged in the death of Ahmaud Arbery, MSNBC contributor and former Obama appointee Brittany Packnett Cunningham never once mentions that a virtually all-white jury in a Deep South had convicted all three defendants of murder.

LOL: MSNBC Regular Claims Liberal Media Going Too Easy on Rittenhouse!
Yeah, that's the problem: the MSM has gone too easy on Kyle Rittenhouse! Incredibly, Brittany Packnett Cunningham claimed exactly that this morning on Tiffany Cross's MSNBC show, where's Cunningham's a frequent guest.

Ten, fifteen years from now, if people get away with this now, we're…

CNN Gives Platform to Bushie to Urge Republicans to Vote Democrat
CNN's New Day has on former George W. Bush speechwriter turned Washington Post columnist Michael Gerson, who encourages Republicans to vote for Democrats in the 2022 mid-term elections.

Scarborough Suppresses Most Serious China-Call Allegation About Milley
The most serious charge against General Milley is that, without notifying the President and Commander-in-Chief, Milley agreed to give China advance notice of an impending attack.
