Sycophancy only gets you so far, as proven by Senator Bernie Sanders’ interview with ABC’s Jon Karl for This Week.

On Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Michael Steele approvingly cites a statement claiming: "Jim Crow has left the south and now roams the country as his grandson, James E. Crow, Esquire. The segregationists played the long game while we were asleep at the wheel. Derrick Johnson, President of the NAACP, suggests that as a result of the closing of the Department of…

Rachel DelGuidice at Fox News reports that TIME magazine is upset that ICE has detained an illegal immigrant they touted in their "TIME 100" most influential people of 2017. It's Trump's "politicized deportation crackdown" against an activist hailed by actress America Ferrera, a star in the dreadful Barbie movie. 

Now that they're in a public-relations battle with Republicans over defunding PBS, the network is out promoting themselves on social media, using "average Americans" who appreciate their work. 

On Thursday's Morning Joe, as the group fretted over the Donald Trump administration's push to eliminate the federal Department of Education, MSNBC contributor Anand Giridharadas declared that MAGA Republicans want Americans uneducated so they won't be able to read about how bad they are for America.

On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, the panel had few ideas on what Democrats SHOULD run on. But one thing on which there was consensus: "Fight Oligarchy," the name of the national tour by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, ain't it. They're both wealthy compared to the average American.

History records this of the famous Nixon Watergate scandal. In the summer of 1972, as an American presidential election featuring incumbent Republican President Richard Nixon and Democrat Senator George McGovern swirled, two young, green Washington Post reporters, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein by name, learned of a break-in at Washington’s Watergate Hotel and office complex. A break…

Cornell grad student Momodou Taal is the latest example of the Trump Administration revoking student visas in light of the holder’s anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism. CNN OutFront host Erin Burnett played dumb on Friday as she claimed that for the administration, anti-Semitism is merely a justification to go after pro-Palestinian protestors.

NPR recently hosted a debate between two sides. No, it's not between Democrats and Republicans, but between liberal Democrats and really radical Democrats. On Tuesday's Morning Edition, the establishment Democrat was old Clinton spinner Paul Begala, and the radical was Waleed Shahid.

It’s charitable to call the chilly reaction to “Screams Before Silence” a fluke.

Columbia University accepted the Trump Administration’s list of demands meant to clean up its anti-Semitism problem on Friday, but NBC correspondent Antonia Hylton warned on Nightly News that Trump’s eminently reasonable demands could be viewed as “extortion.”

The weekly gathering of Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks on PBS News Hour was extra animated this Friday as the duo decried DOGE’s “cruelty,” claimed “democracy is teetering,” and labeled President Trump an “extortionist.”

In a recent email, DC PBS station WETA sent an email to donors still squeezing good will out of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. We're told "public media belongs to you," and PBS believes in sharing "the good that we know is in one another." Anyone who watches PBS or listens to NPR knows this isn't true.

New York magazine columnist Ed Kilgore's stance on filibusters shifted dramatically between 2021 and 2025. Initially, he saw them as a hindrance when Democrats held the Senate, emphasizing their harm in a 2021 article.
