Congress

In the final week of 2022, the PBS NewsHour put on display the kind of double standard that the liberal media typically show in its treatment of Republicans and Democrats as defeated Republican Congressman Rodney Davis and retiring Democrat Senator Patrick Leahy were interviewed within days of one another.

On Thursday afternoon, MSNBC fill-in host Cori Coffin gave environmental alarmist Michael Mann a forum to blame "human-caused" global warming for extreme weather events from 2022, including the blizzard that just hit the U.S.

In a theatrical performance the worst thing that can happen is to have a predictable outcome. That is precisely what occurred with the Jan. 6 Committee, which has referred former President Donald Trump to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution on four counts – “influencing or impeding an official proceeding of the U.S. government”, “conspiring to defraud the U.S”, “unlawfully,…

On Thursday’s edition of The Lead, fill-in CNN host Phil Mattingly pointed out the incompetence of the former campaign team for Robert Zimmerman, the New York Democrat who was defeated in the 2022 midterm election by embattled Congressman-elect George Santos. It was recently revealed that an absurd number of autobiographical claims Santos made on the campaign trail were whole-cloth…

The U.S. House of Representatives is the latest government entity to take aim at TikTok, banning the popular Chinese social media app from House-issued mobile phones.

Along with a litany of pork barrel spending and woke priorities, the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending package to fund the government has yet to pass and that had Thursday’s CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today in a tizzy. Their reason? Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) has made a simple request for an amendment to extend Title 42 and thwart an even bigger tsunami of illegal immigration (compared…

Following Monday’s softball interview with Senator Raphael Warnock, CBS Mornings brought in liberal media darling (and likely serial leaker) and Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) for a rhetorical foot massage over his work on the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 riot, pleading with him to run for Senate in 2024, and teeing him up to attack likely incoming House Speaker…

On Tuesday, nearly 24 hours after claiming “there’s nothing fake about CNN,” CNN This Morning co-host Don Lemon laughably asserted, without evidence, that “all evidence points” to “the facts” that the Department of Justice (DOJ) is not political, and has only ever been political during the Trump administration.

With the January 6 Committee having held their final hearing on Monday by sending criminal referrals against former President Trump and others to the Department of Justice (DOJ), the liberal broadcast networks swooned for their friends on the committee. ABC and NBC suggested the committee was better at conducting investigations than the DOJ. Meanwhile, CBS was itching to see soon-to-be former…

According to the avalanche of posts by reporters Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss, and writer Michael Shellenberger, to whom new Twitter owner and CEO Elon Musk provided access to internal communications, Twitter massively “shadow-banned,” restricted and even flat-out blocked access to conservatives and conservative content. So, how does the anti-Donald Trump and the anti-conservative Left ignore…

There was some good old-school New York Times labeling bias on Wednesday’s front page, on California Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s fight to become House Speaker when the Republican Party takes over control of Congress next month: “McCarthy Fights to Clear Path to Speaker’s Seat.” The front-page text box set the hostile labeling tone: “Trump’s Lobbying Has Not Moved Critics on the Far Right.” …

Leaving aside any possible undeclared motives for leaving the Democratic Party and becoming an Independent, Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema has said some things that have needed to be said for a long time. In an op-ed for The Arizona Republic, Sinema wrote, “Americans are told that we have only two choices – Democrat or Republican – and that we must subscribe wholesale to policy views…

On Sunday evening, CNN weekend host Pamela Brown cheered for a gay activist who posted a TikTok video lecturing his aunt, Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler (R-MO), for her recent speech opposing same-sex marriage. The CNN host even had the liberal activist on as a guest, devoting six minutes to his liberal agenda.

A couple of the broadcast networks had a serious case of the sads Friday morning as Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema announced she was ditching the Democratic Party label and becoming an independent. This was much to the chagrin of ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings as they lamented the Democratic Party majority in the Senate unexpectedly shrink after initially…
