On Monday afternoon, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur feared a protest by Canadian truckers against government COVID regulations was tantamount to a “national insurrection.” She then brought on a Canadian journalist who detailed the threats posed by the demonstrators: Plinko, pizza ovens, saunas, and hot tubs.

Monday marked another return to a full White House Briefing Room and, for this episode of the Psaki Show, Reuters’s Andrea Shalal strayed into authoritarianism by asking Press Secretary Jen Psaki whether the Biden administration was investigating “conservative” and “right-wing forces in the U.S.” for supporting truck drivers in Canada protesting that government’s COVID mandates.

Even with CNN boss Jeff Zucker gone his poison lingers. That fact was obvious during Monday afternoon’s Inside Politics where correspondent Paula Newton and anchor John King teamed up to smear the peaceful Freedom Convey protest against Canada’s COVID-19 mandates as “a threat to democracy,” an “insurrection driven by madness,” and “sedition.” Even suggesting the nation was teetering…

After having all but ignored it for weeks (and footnoted it over the weekend), ABC and CBS devoted full segments on Monday morning to the “Freedom Convoy” in Canada by truck drivers and supporters protesting the Liberal government’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate, but dismissed them as standing in the way of Canada’s “efforts to control” the virus and making life difficult and violent for those in…

Wherever the Left is challenged, you can count on the so-called "independent fact-checkers" to fan out and attack...followed by Twitter promoting what "fact-checkers say."

None of this was of interest to two of…

The Daily Show host Trevor Noah is not who most people would have predicted would be the one most likely to defend Canadian truckers protesting COVID-19 vaccine mandates, but on Monday's show on Comedy Central, Noah did just that. Not only did Noah see why mandates for truckers are silly, but he also defended the protestors against the few bad actors that have showed up at the…

On his MSNBC show, Jonathan Capehart highlights a Canadian newspaper headline about the possibility of Canada intervening in the US if Trumpism wins and the US is seen as "hurtling toward possible violence and autocracy." And guest Fiona Hill describes Canadian concerns that many Americans will try to cross the border into Canada as "refugees" in 2024.

Tara Henley had had enough. A longtime producer for the Canadian Broadcasting Company, Henley abruptly resigned, writing of her reasons over there at Substack.

NBC has had a rough February, particularly when it comes to the anti-Semitism angle.
