Washington Post national columnist and hamburger height fact-checker Philip Bump released a column on Thursday discussing what he considers to be the latest scandal plaguing the Republican Party: the use of the terms “Chinese Communist Party” and “CCP.”

As Republicans prepare for their first primary debate, PolitiFact’s Amy Sherman came running to the defense of President Biden and his China policy on Tuesday, rating former Vice President Mike Pence “mostly false” for claiming Biden sent Secretary of State Anthony Blinken to “kowtow” before Beijing after the spy balloon incident.

This week, while we celebrate the work of America's founders, I honor a living freedom fighter: billionaire businessman Jimmy Lai. When Communist China crushed freedom in Hong Kong, Lai could have gone anywhere in the world and lived a life of luxury. But he chose to stay in Hong Kong and go to jail. A new documentary, “The Hong Konger,” tells his story. Lai grew up in poverty in China.

In January, NewsBusters noted that far-left New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s sudden resignation caused the big three news networks in the United States to get weak knees over what they described her as an “empathetic” leader, an “inspiration”, a “pioneer” and "trailblazer" for her authoritarian tenure in office. On Wednesday, NBC Nightly News used the last segment of the…

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel does not like being reminded that he once dismissed the possibility that the COVID-19 pandemic began as a lab leak, so on his Tuesday show he compared Fox News’s Tucker Carlson to “diarrhea” while blaming him and others for anti-Asian violence in America.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand – Like Halley’s Comet that only comes around every 75 years, the resignation of a top politician from office is a rare occurrence. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has quit and not for the usual reasons of scandal or the all-purpose excuse “to spend more time with my family.” In a burst of honesty worthy of emulation by other leaders, Ardern has resigned because she says…

The “big three” broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC grew embarrassingly weak in the knees Thursday over far-left New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s sudden resignation, swooning over her as an “empathetic” “inspiration” and “pioneer” who achieved “global stardom” as “one of the world’s most influential national leaders” who enacted mass gun confiscation with “no pushback.”

SYDNEY – Last July, the U.S. chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. Mark Milley, visited Jakarta where he said China’s military has become significantly more aggressive and dangerous over the past five years. While the U.S. has seemed fixated on China’s growing verbal threats and military maneuvers around Taiwan, Milley and others, including some in Australia, are concerned that China’s…

It’s now been three years since COVID hit. At the start of the pandemic, “experts” shouted: “Stay home!” “Close schools!” “Wash your hands!” “Disinfect countertops!” Clearly, disinfecting countertops and washing hands made no difference. What about closing schools and lockdowns? The media trashed Gov. Ron DeSantis when he lifted Florida’s lockdown. “Acting irresponsibly!” roared MSNBC’s Dr.…

NBC Today host Savannah Guthrie was not convinced of the wisdom of Speak Pelosi’s recent trip to Taiwan. Given Beijing’s temper tantrum over the visit, Guthrie wondered “was it worth it” as she infantilized the communist regime by portraying it inevitable.

With the spotlight Thursday on a January 6 Committee hearing, the White House press briefing moments prior faded to the background, but it was filled with nonsense as Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre continued to use her binder as a life raft. Despite that, she sounded divorced from reality as Fox’s Peter Doocy repeatedly scored points on domestic oil production and fact-checking President…

While claiming that he wasn't comparing Joe Biden to Neville Chamberlain, Joe Scarborough says that Chamberlain was so "desperate for peace" that he appeased Hitler, leading to WWII. Scarborough suggested that Biden might also be "desperate for peace" in suggesting at his press conference that Putin ordering a "minor incursion" of Ukraine wouldn't merit a full-blown US response. 

Biden sycophant Joe Scarborough broke out the world's largest lipstick on Wednesday's Morning Joe, and labored mightily to apply it to the pig of Biden's first year of office. Protesting too much, Scarborough claimed he wasn't trying "to help Joe Biden." Right. The video tells a very different story. A frenzied Scarborough waxed ecstatic, remaining in virtually non-…

On CNN's New Day, David Sanger, the chief Washington correspondent of the New York Times who doubles as a CNN analyst., opines that Biden's catastrophic mishandling of the Afghanistan withdrawal has emboldened Vladimir Putin to invade Ukraine.
