MSNBC Dutifully Repeats Fire Alarm-Pulling Dem's Excuses
Saturday brought the simultaneously bizarre and outrageous development of New York Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman pulling the fire alarm in order to disrupt the House’s business as it eventually passed a 45-day continuing resolution to avert a government shutdown. Naturally, MSNBC’s Yasmin Vossoughian accepted the statement that it was just an accident.

Trump Takes the Wheel? PBS Promotes Cassidy Hutchinson, No Fact Checks
Even on a newscast preceding that night’s GOP presidential debate, the tax-supported PBS NewsHour kept its focus on former president Donald Trump, inviting former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson on to promote her book, Enough, about her traumatic experiences in the Trump White House and how dangerous it would be for Trump to win a second term of office. You may remember…

Behar: Better for America If Biden Gets Reelected and ‘Dies in Office’
The crones of ABC’s The View were up in arms again Tuesday as Americans upped their scrutiny of aging politicians who didn’t know when to call it quits. Of course, their reaction was largely spurred on by multiple polls that showed President Biden’s advanced age and lack of fitness for office were a top concern for voters. Their outrage culminated with co-host Joy Behar proclaiming…

Navarro Praises Menendez, Prays for ‘Logical Explanation’ to Gold Bars
After ignoring the federal bribery indictment of Democratic Senator Bob Menendez (NJ) last week, the liberal ladies of The View finally got around to mentioning it on Monday, after NewsBusters called them out. A majority of the cast had harsh words for the allegedly corrupt Senator, but faux-conservative co-host Ana Navarro praised Menendez, bizarrely bragged about bringing some of…
LOL: TX Tribune’s Framing of Libs vs. Cruz Went Exactly as You’d Think
The far-left Texas Tribune held their annual liberal confab and meeting of the hacks over the weekend (and framed similarly to the clownishly elite Aspen Ideas Festival) and, to his credit, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) entered enemy territory. Sure enough, the way the outlet’s Twitter (or X) account framed his appearance sure looked a lot different than their portrayal of sit-downs featuring…

NY Times ID’s Shady Sen. Menendez as a Dem…When It Fits the Narrative?
Perennially shady Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez (NJ) was indicted on bribery charges Friday, and the partisan labeling by the New York Times has been unpredictable, sometimes aggressively identifying him as a Democrat senator, sometimes ignoring the D. Times reporter Glenn Thrush had the audacity to see a silver lining for the Biden DOJ in this new indictment, exemplified…

Rupert Rant: NPR’s Folkenflik Rips ‘Corrosive…Right-Wing’ Fox on PBS
The "public" broadcasting elite loathes Fox News. When news broke that 92-year-old media mogul Rupert Murdoch, Fox News founder and chairman of News Corp, is stepping down in favor of his son Lachlan, that encouraged tax-funded PBS to trot out Murdoch-bashing journalist David Folkenflik of tax-funded National Public Radio on Thursday evening to lament the chairman’s "corrosive" right-…

NYT Puts Protective Cloak Over Slob Sen. Fetterman, Hits 'Hard-Right'
New York Times congressional correspondent Annie Karni thought she had a good “gotcha” in response to Republican criticism of the Senate’s new relaxed dress code, imposed by Majority Leader Sen. Charles Schumer (NY), in response to a fellow Democrat’s insistence in showing up on the Senate floor dressed like a slob in defiance of Senate rules. In Wednesday’s “For Some Senators, New…

If the Shoe Fits: Joy Behar Whines The View Cast Are Called ‘Libtards’
During Wednesday’s edition of The View, ABC co-host Joy Behar openly whined that people on the right call her and the rest of the far-left cast “libtards” and make other "terrible remarks about people like us." Behar’s bellyaching came 24 hours after she and staunchly racist co-host Sunny Hostin insisted that Republicans, and those who supported the Second Amendment, have the blood of…

Sleazy Rick Wilson: Mike Pence Is 'One Notch Short of Stoning Gays'
On Katie Phang's weekend MSNBC show, Rick Wilson of the disgraced Lincoln Project says Mike Pence is so ultraconservative he's "one notch short of lynching gays."

Mueller 'Pit Bull' Prosecutor Becomes Lap Dog Over Hunter Indictment
As Robert Mueller's top aide during the investigation of Donald Trump on Russian collusion in the 2016 election, Andrew Weissman earned the moniker, "the pit bull." But Weissman subsequently became an MSNBC legal analyst. And on Morning Joe, he turned into a lap dog regarding the indictment of Hunter Biden on gun charges, saying, "This really strikes me as an abuse of the enormous…

The View Decries Hunter Gun Charges: All Addicts 'Lie,’ 'Commit Crime'
One would think the liberal ladies of ABC’s The View would support the felony charges against Hunter Biden since gun laws were finally being enforced on someone who allegedly committed a felony by lying on his background check form. But since they were backing his daddy for president, they needed to treat him like the victim. Their defenses ranged from calling the charges a “political…

Nice Try, Morning Joe! Show Argues Trump, Not Biden, Not 'All There'
Morning Joe, trying to cover for Biden's latest senior moment at his press conference in Vietnam that got so bad that his spox Karine Jean-Pierre had to step in to loudly end things, claims that it is fact Trump, and not Biden, who is not "all there."
NewsBusters Podcast: The ‘No Evidence’ Liberal Media Faceplant
NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck and Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro were at the helm for another episode to close out the short week in which they repeatedly mocked the liberal media’s insistence that there’s “no evidence” to Biden family corruption.
