CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren to Thursday’s taping of The Late Show to strategize how they can force President Trump to end the war with Iran. Of course, neither of them thought through the potential consequences that might have, which was ironic considering all the energy they spent criticizing Trump for not having a well-thought-out plan.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed former Secretary of State John Kerry to Tuesday’s edition of The Late Show to discuss the latest developments with Iran. However, what was intended as an informational segment for the audience turned into a segment that featured Kerry misrepresenting two crucial facts and acting as if he were the comedian.

Of all the liberals with a strange, new respect for papal wisdom, HBO’s John Oliver might be the most brazen. On Sunday, the Last Week Tonight host, who spends a great amount of time lamenting pro-lifers and religious people who operate under the assumption that the First Amendment applies to their views of homosexuality, became the latest to pile on Vice President JD Vance for his…

It appears that the newly minted king of the Open Society Foundations empire, Alex Soros, is cashing in on years of cultivating relationships with some of the world’s most powerful leaders to wage a global political assault against the right.

Ever since Pope Leo assumed the papacy, PBS News Hour Friday contributors MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart and The Atlantic staff writer David Brooks have tried to claim him as one of their own in their fight against the Trump administration. That continued this Friday as the duo essentially told Vice President JD Vance to shut up when it comes to criticizing Leo’s remarks about…

On her Thursday Ex Files podcast, PBS/CNN International anchor Christiane Amanpour flirted with the idea that President Trump or Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth could possibly be charged with war crimes for actions during the war with Iran. However, Amanpour had to misrepresent recent reporting from The New York Times in order to do so.

Comedy Central’s Ronny Chieng took some time on Thursday’s episode of The Daily Show to examine a different aspect of the war with Iran: the internet meme battle. According to Chieng, Iran’s Lego propaganda video is much better than the memes the White House has been putting out.

After Vice President JD Vance criticized Pope Leo’s recent Iran War comments as being a possible departure from traditionally understood ideas around just war theory, CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, responded on Wednesday by telling Vance to “sit down” because he has been a Catholic since the 60s while Vance only converted in 2019. Colbert then went to a commercial, and…

For CNN This Morning guest host Erica Hill, the Trump administration’s argument with Pope Leo over the Iran War provided her an opportunity to hype the idea that true religion is liberal and the “moral courage” the country needs. To help her make that point, Hill brought on Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde—best known for turning the Inaugural Prayer Service into Liberal Culture War Hour…

Watching the media scurry all over cyberspace to explain away why their TDS-afflicted economic catastrophe forecasts aren’t panning out is like watching a flock of chickens running around with their heads cut off, still clucking about how the sky is falling. Well, the sky just delivered surprisingly tame producer price inflation on the month, despite the ongoing Iran War.

NBC’s Saturday Night Live Weekend Update co-anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che were at it again this past weekend. A week after joking about President Trump hypothetically getting shot again, they considered the possibility of Second Lady Usha Vance committing suicide to get away from Vice President JD Vance. Along the way, the duo would launch other outrageous attacks, including…

The late night comedians like to think of themselves as the kind of people who use humor to highlight the absurdities coming from President Trump, but on their Monday shows, all they ended up doing was proving their own ignorance on the matters they chose to talk about. In this case, the subject was Trump’s announcement of a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz after Saturday’s failed negotiations…

On Saturday, MS NOW host Ali Velshi welcomed Prof. Timothy Snyder to his show to discuss President Trump’s Truth Social post from earlier in the week that warned “a whole civilization will die” if Iran did not agree to a ceasefire. According to Snyder, the post could be enough to drag American service members in front of a Nuremburg-like trial on charges of genocide.

For those with a historical memory, what grew to be massive dissent from America’s participation in the Vietnam War arguably began when then-CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite, returned from a trip to Vietnam as war raged during the Lyndon Johnson administration, took to the televised airwaves to say:
