Reporters are in a dither than Team Trump's committing a "naked violation of the First Amendment" by denying access to the Associated Press. The liberal blob didn't react this way when Team Biden obstructed access to the New York Post in their time. The AP in no way should be presented as nonpartisan or "the gold standard of neutrality."

On Tuesday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, Stephanie Ruhle officiated over yet another session of commiseration about the actions of the new administration, with the usual heavy emphasis on Elon Musk and DOGE. Joining her was Reed Galen, author of The Home Front on Substack, who –without evidence – accused the administration and Musk, with media complicity, of leaning on…

The PBS News Hour, along with the rest of the liberal press, have certainly warmed up to the FBI, America’s chief domestic surveillance organization. Since Donald Trump came on the scene, the press has behaved more like a present-day “Friends of the FBI” – the fundraising group founded by supporters of the infamous J. Edgar Hoover – than the bulwark against government spying and…

On Wednesday’s CBS Mornings, co-host, Obama family friend, and former Democratic Party donor Gayle King tried to tie Donald Trump and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to the recent high-profile aviation accidents in 2025 and ask the CEO of Delta Airlines whether he too has concern about air safety with Trump in power. Thankfully, Delta’s Ed Bastian wasn’t having any of…

On multiple days this week, staunchly racist Sunny Hostin put herself on a pedestal above all Americans and proclaimed to be part of the superior racial demographic: black woman. During the Tuesday and Wednesday episodes of ABC’s The View, Hostin repeatedly praised herself and other black woman for how they “voted to save the country” by supporting Vice President Kamala Harris’s…

MSNBC Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough was the latest in a list of dishonorable media figures to tie President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s budget-cutting efforts to the idea of additional plane crashes. Unlike other analyses, Scarborough’s ramblings come from someone who likes to style himself as one of the few remaining principled conservatives.

In an lengthy interview with Elon Musk that aired Tuesday on the Fox News Channel with Sean Hannity (and taped late last week), President Trump unsurprisingly found time to lambaste the “bad,” “dangerous,” “horrible” liberal media as he and Musk have stood up the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to shrink and tame the leviathan that is the federal government.

On CNN This Morning, Dispatch co-founder Jonah Goldberg says Trump has a "goldfish's memory" of history, but that he subscribes to a 19th-century notion of spheres of influence. He thus sees the US's sphere of influence as the Americas and Europe, while Putin and Xi have their spheres of influence, in which Putin gets Ukraine, Xi gets Taiwan, and the US gets Panama. Per Goldberg, Trump…

Through the first four weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term, the late night comedians have told 761 jokes about him. By contrast, in 2021, during President Joe Biden’s first four weeks in office, the late night comedians told a total of 88 jokes about the new chief executive, according to an MRC study.

Actor George Clooney traveled over to CBS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday to promote the stage adaptation of his 2005 movie Good Night, and Good Luck about Edward R. Murrow and McCarthyism. With modern-day politics an obvious backdrop, Clooney urged journalists to be on the “right side of history” even if it “is not fun at the moment.”

On the PBS show Washington Week with The Atlantic on February 7, host Jeffrey Goldberg began: “Elon Musk, the unelected, unconfirmed, unofficial, but extremely powerful prime minister of the United States, is carrying out his plan to purge thousands of employees from the federal government.”

We have arrived at the stage of DOGE derangement wherein the media are now poring over the words President Donald Trump uses in describing the ongoing program cuts across several government agencies. Quite frankly, we haven’t seen this much analysis over the definition of a word since Bill Clinton tried to question the meaning of what is is.

The online title to the latest “On Democracy” segment on Monday’s PBS News Hour gave away the slant of the newly hatched series – fear porn to attract liberal viewers during the second Trump Administration: “How the start of Trump’s second term looks like some autocracies”: "President Trump's social media post over the weekend, 'He who saves his country does not violate any law,'…

Expanding to two hours after the departure of carnival barker Jim Acosta and before being joined next month by Wolf Blitzer to co-host The Situation Room, CNN’s Pamela Brown has kept up the usual partisan chicanery and Tuesday was no exception with a lengthy, 11-minutes-plus battle with Congressman Tim Burchett (R-TN) that mostly consisted of Brown defending government workers and…
