Congress

New York Times political profile writer Mark Leibovich brought his trademark snark to Friday’s “Washington Memo,” trolling Republican senators supposedly refusing to acknowledge Joe Biden as the next president of the United States: “President-Elect Who? The G.O.P.’s Delicate Dance of Absurdity.” What the paper ignored, under its standard anti-GOP snark: How Democrats refused to accept…

In a Friday afternoon press conference, the liberal media continued abdicating their responsibility to engage in adversarial journalism towards the incoming Biden administration, treating President-Elect Joe Biden to his fourth round of softballs since the election. This time, five pre-selected reporters served him monotonous (and condescension-free) questions about the coronavirus, his…

Filling in for Craig Melvin during MSNBC’s 11:00 a.m. ET hour on Friday, anchor Kasie Hunt welcomed on newly-announced left-wing weekend host Tiffany Cross to campaign for Democrats in Georgia’s Senate runoff election. In part, Cross labeled incumbent Republican Senator Kelly Loeffler a “carpetbagger” and dismissed criticism of Democratic candidate Raphael Warnock’s radical record as “asinine…

Thursday night’s ReidOut featured one of the ugliest news segments one will ever see. Over the course of eight-plus minutes, MSNBC host Joy Reid and far-left race-hustler Michael Eric Dyson viciously condemned Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) as a “racist,” “terrorist,” ventriloquist (or “geppetto”) controlling black Kentucky AG Daniel Cameron (R), and worshipper at “the altar of…

In the aftermath of black conservative former NFL player Burgess Owens getting elected to Congress, CNN host Erin Burnett was apparently so alarmed by his criticisms of the far-left Black Lives Matter movement that she gave Democratic Congressman Jim Clyburn an unchallenged forum to accuse the Utah Republican of historical ignorance.

On Wednesday's The 11th Hour show, MSNBC host Brian Williams put a negative spin on the recent appointment of five young conservative justices to the federal courts, making "elections have consequences" the theme of his closing commentary.

On Tuesday’s ReidOut, MSNBC host Joy Reid went full Ed Schultz, accusing Republicans of “bolt[ing] the door” shut in a burning house, purposefully trapping Americans as the coronavirus rages and see no problem with any and all Americans who die as a result of it. And if the venomous rhetoric wasn’t enough, Reid demanded Americans spend the holidays in crippling mental isolation (or…

Thursday’s The ReidOut was an exercise in irony for MSNBC viewers, thanks to hilarious lamentations from host Joy Reid and Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) (a man she dubbed a modern-day Thaddeus Stevens) that congressional Republicans will spend the next four years investigating President-elect Joe Biden and his family.

Appearing as a guest on Wednesday's Deadline: White House on MSNBC to react to President Donald Trump's strong showing in the election, contributor Jason Johnson declared he was "disturbed" by the number of Americans who voted for Trump, and urged Joe Biden, if he becomes President, to treat Republicans as "the enemies of democracy."

On Friday's MSNBC coverage of the 2020 presidential election, MSNBC contributor and disaffected ex-Republican Steve Schmidt fretted that almost half the country voted for President Donald Trump, declaring that they "voted for a statist authoritarian movement with fascistic markers hostile to American democracy."

On Tuesday night, the American people spoke. They spoke with millions upon millions of voices to produce the greatest presidential election voter turnout in over a century. And they sent a variety of messages, most of them quite positive. Voters rejected the prevailing narratives of a media determined to make the election a pure referendum on Donald Trump's character. 

On Friday afternoon, MSNBC host Katy Tur was again doing her part to promote voting for Democrats as she gave liberal actor Billy Eichner a forum to push the get-out-the-vote efforts of his left-wing Swing Left group. She gave no pushback as he ranted against President Donald Trump and suggested that Republican voters are racists.

President Donald Trump is not the first president to be hated by a large segment of the American population. In more recent times, there was considerable hate for President Ronald Reagan. Even though the Democratic Speaker of the House Tip O'Neill and Reagan were polar opposites in their politics, they could be friends. Once, when Reagan confronted O'Neill about nasty things that he said about…

In a hearing about Big Tech censorship, one Democrat called for more censorship against opinions and information he dislikes. Democrat Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) condemned Trump’s “propaganda parrots” on Fox News and his fellow conservatives for “peddling a myth” at a Big Tech hearing.
