After a week that consisted of vehement pushback against the Biden administration’s new mask edict and threats of bringing back crippling Covid restrictions, the liberal media decided on Friday to fall in line during the White House press briefing with only Fox News’s Peter Doocy remaining skeptical about this sudden change.

We made it to the end of another week of Curtis Houck and I filling in for Tim Graham. He’ll be back on Monday, but we have a blast and we hope you enjoyed listening to us and our interns. On this episode of the podcast, we discuss the coming reimplementation of the dreaded mask mandates, President Biden snapping at a Fox News reporter, and CNN’s Chris “Fredo” Cuomo getting called out on his…

One New York City business owner took CNN to task this morning, over their love for government lockdowns and mask mandates. After Mayor Bill De Blasio threatened to reinstitute mask mandates next week due to coronavirus variants, art dealer Eli Klein came onto CNN to blast the decision as “a blueprint for indefinite government restrictions in New York.”

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill was not planning to get the COVID-19 vaccine. However, he has backed down out of fear that the NFL will make his life miserable if he refuses to get the shots, and he’s getting the vaccine.

With President Biden’s CDC trying to force masks back on the vaccinated, there was understandable outrage and pushback from the public. But while CBS Evening News chose to approach the opposition as just a side effect of the move, ABC’s World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News actually criticized the administration for causing their own “messaging problem” that harmed…

Appearing on Wednesday's Katy Tur Reports on MSNBC, PBS White House correspondent Yamiche Alcindor declared that "white male conservative voters" and former President Trump are to blame for the CDC's flip-flopping on their latest guidelines that says vaccinated people should be wearing masks, but the facts said otherwise.

Comedian and cultural commentator Nicole Arbour mocked that Facebook censored a video of her lampooning the constantly changing narrative around COVID-19 and vaccines.

Morning Joe has a history of trashing Mitch McConnell, with Joe Scarborough having slimed him as "Moscow Mitch," and even more disgustingly, as "Chokehold Mitch."  But on today's show, Morning Joe went out of its way to praise the once [and future?] Senate Majority Leader for his advocacy of Covid vaccinations. In doing so, Morning Joe acknowledged that hearing praise of McConnell might be…

With the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) largely backing the CDC’s ridiculous reversal on the mask mandate that demands even the vaccinated to mask up again, and decrying those who would oppose it, the Biden administration was busy bussing and dumping COVID-infected illegal immigrants into American border towns without notifying local officials and without a way to track them.

On today’s podcast, Curtis Houck and I discuss the return of the mask. No, not the 90’s R&B hit Return of the Mack by Mark Morrison, but the return of the CDC’s demand that everyone return to wearing facemasks including those of us who have played by the rules and have gotten vaccinated already. We also cover the theatrical proceedings known as the January 6 Select Committee hearings. And…

When there’s a White House press briefing in which the press corps doesn’t appear friendly with the Biden administration, you know it was a tough day at the office. Tuesday’s briefing was one of those rare days as Fox’s Peter Doocy was joined by over a half dozen colleagues outlets in asking tough questions Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to answer about the return of masks, even for…

During a softball interview on MSNBC Monday afternoon, embattled California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom was given the opportunity to blame his failures in response to the COVID pandemic on political opponents who organized the recall effort against him. Without evidence, he claimed those wanting to remove him from office in the upcoming September election were spreading ant-vaxxer…

Apoorva Mandavilli, the New York Times’ chief Covid correspondent, filed Monday’s lead story: “Shot Refusal Gives Variant Room to Grow – More Vaccinations Key to Halting New Surge.” Mandavilli has a history of spreading coronavirus pessimism, and in May notoriously claimed that the "lab leak" theory had racist origins. Monday’s lead combined mild virus alarmism with partisan finger-…

If you want to really get under the skin of CNN's Chris Cillizza then just refer to the Covid-19 vaccines as the "Trump vaccine."
