With the senators behind the bipartisan border deal having finally unveiled the text of their bill on Sunday night, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC went all out on their Monday morning news shows to fluff the pillows of dealmakers, giving few to any details beyond cursory allusions to give it maximum appeal and painting GOP opposition as driven by former President Trump.

VIDEO: Dems Insist Border Is ‘Secure,’ Corporate Media Shrug
For the entirety of the Biden administration, the corporate news media have sat idly by as Democrats lied that the U.S. border is “secure,” “closed,” and “under control.” For a group of people so supposedly disturbed by misinformation, these journalists owe everyone an explanation for why they’ve allowed their friends in the White House and on Capitol Hill to continue pushing this absurd…

Trump’s Map to the White House
In 2020, Joe Biden won three states by less than 1 point: Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin. If Donald Trump can flip these three in November — he took them all in 2016 — he’ll be back in the White House this time next year. Can he do it? First he has to hold every state he won last time. Trump’s narrowest victory was in North Carolina, where his margin was a little more than 1.3%. His home state…

Journalist Christiane Amanpour’s eponymous international affairs show (airing on PBS and CNN International) is obsessed with getting Israel to back down from its war on the terrorist group Hamas and make potentially dangerous concessions to Hamas-run Gaza Strip.
