CNN’s Brownstein: Trump Sees LA as ‘Hostile Territory to Be Subdued’
Wednesday morning, The Situation Room aired CNN political analyst and Bloomberg opinion writer, Ron Brownstein, in order to talk about the ongoing situation in Los Angeles, California.

NYT Avoids ‘Stochastic’ Smear When Killers Use Lefty Anti-Jew Rhetoric
Anti-Jewish terrorists inspired by the “Free Palestine” movement allegedly have, over the last few weeks, made three attacks on Jews in America.

ABC Hypes 'Rigorous Vetting' Of Chinese Students That Repeatedly Fails
The Friday editions of ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today both employed Harvard Professor and former U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns to attack the Trump administration’s move to “aggressively” curtail student visas to Chinese nationals.

The death of Texas teen Ava Moore, who was set to attend the Air Force Academy, was but the latest in a long trail of death and destruction at the hands of criminal illegal aliens allowed to enter into the country unabated.

The national media use polls the way they deploy all kinds of facts -- with a liberal bias. So they may not notice polls that offer some good news.

The View Attacks Tapper for Exposing Biden, Refuses to Have Him On
The liberal ladies of ABC’s The View were so sycophantic for former President Joe Biden that they kicked off their Tuesday episode by attacking CNN anchor Jake Tapper for daring to write a book about the cover-up of Biden’s senility.
