Economy

Of all the political and economic analysts CNN could've talked to, it was a random, shirtless guy at a MAGA boat parade with a beer that best explained why inflation is the top issue in the election. Despite the fact that he owned a boat, Joe Harner explained to Elle Reeve on Wednesday's Anderson Cooper 360 that inflation impacts everyone, including people with less money than him.…

Thursday’s White House press briefing lacked some quality Doocy Time for the second day in a row, but there was still plenty of tense back-and-forths featuring Newsmax’s James Rosen, CBS’s Ed O’Keefe, and surprisingly the AP’s Zeke Miller over the Biden-Harris administration’s decision to hold this week’s Quad Summit — featuring leaders from Australia, India, and Japan — in Wilmington,…

The debate tone was set with the first question. Debate co-moderator David Muir, ABC’s news managing editor, asked Vice President Kamala Harris: “I want to begin tonight with the issue voters repeatedly say is their No. 1 issue ... When it comes to the economy, do you believe Americans are better off than they were four years ago?”

A newspaper story several years ago reported about an elementary school teacher who held elections in his class. The students picked their candidates — one little boy competing against one little girl. The little boy stood up before the class and shared his ideas for changes that would improve their lives. The little girl stood up and promised that everyone who voted for her would get ice…

When Jimmy Kimmel eventually retires, maybe MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle could take his place. On Friday, Ruhle was not happy with young Republicans who are unpersuaded by Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Kamala Harris because they care more about economic issues than social one because she could not “remember the last time I heard Kamala Harris talk about anything like that.” Meanwhile, RiskReversal…

On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was lucky to have softballs from liberal journalists discounting the mass, unfettered immigration puts on small towns, schools, and social services like in Springfield, Ohio as, leaving those aside, she was hit with searing questions on the economy and government spending by Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich and Edward Lawrence.

With World News Tonight anchor David Muir co-moderating Tuesday’s presidential debate, co-hosting duties for the hour-long pre-game show fell to This Week co-hosts and longtime ABC correspondent Jonathan Karl and Martha Raddatz alongside chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce and senior congressional correspondent Rachel Scott. Simply put, it was a disaster of the highest…

Monday’s White House press briefing led off with national security spokesman and frequent Karine Jean-Pierre crutch John Kirby defending the Biden-Harris administration’s deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan in light of a House Foreign Affairs Committee report, arguing they’ve done plenty of soul-searching, but feel proud of what happened and want to move on. Thankfully, a few reporters had some…

In 2020, PolitiFact gave Georgia Sen. David Perdue a “pants on fire” rating for claiming that rival Jon Ossoff was a socialist. Now, PolitiFact is at it again, giving Donald Trump a similar “pants on fire” on Wednesday for rating for labeling Kamala Harris a communist.

As part of CBS Mornings’s genuinely intriguing “Three Meals” series where a host or correspondent chats with voters in a state or district over breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the latest episode bordered on pathetic as correspondent Caitlin Huey-Burns went to Florida to inject abortion into conversations with voters (since they weren’t bringing it up themselves) and portray the Sunshine…

The latest installment in the Regime Media’s ongoing “Hide the Bidenomics Suck” series features a new twist: omitting an unpopular policy prescription for the underlying problem mentioned in the report.

Tuesday marked the first White House press briefing in 21 days and, along with the fact that Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre still found a way to show up nearly an hour late (by starting a 2:30 p.m. briefing at 3:12 p.m.), Fox’s Peter Doocy returned with a stunning doozy by asking about President Biden attacking Israel and Vice President Kamala Harris code-switching between audiences. Along…

On Friday, the “Big Three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC opened their flagship morning news shows by rhetorically gallivanting over Thursday night’s CNN exclusive interview with Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) (after having not done an interview since President Biden was forced out).

An economist skewered the leftist media for mindlessly propping up the Biden-Harris job market as the epitome of success now that it was revealed that the government overestimated job growth by nearly 1 million jobs.
