Europe

On Thursday, scenes of Europe’s ugly past seemed to have returned with a full-scale pogrom by pro-Palestinian thugs chasing and beating fans of an Israeli soccer team through the streets of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Unfortunately, ABC’s Good Morning America saw no reason to cover these horrifying acts of violence that resulted in rescue planes being dispatched by Israeli Prime Minister…

This month, Brexit’s mastermind, Nigel Farage, returned to the fore of British politics.

She also gleefully noted “the contrasts” between Biden and Donald Trump while playing up the former apologizing for the GOP in France during his meeting with Ukrainian…

On Friday, the flagship morning news shows of ABC, CBS, and NBC were shamelessly ebullient at President Biden’s speech hours later that would use the heroes who fought and died at Pointe du Hoc as part of the D-Day invasion as implicit but a “clear” “contrast” against President Trump, cloaking his daggers as “a forceful defense of democracy” and “echoing the lessons of the past” to speak to “…

CBS Mornings host Gayle King and foreign correspondent Imtiaz Tyab could hardly contain their excitement as Spain, Norway, and Ireland announced on Wednesday they will recognize a Palestinian state.
