Foreign Policy

One of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show’s most corrosive effects on our culture has been to take complicated policy questions, dumb them down to a cliché for the sake of a cheap laugh, and then claim they were cutting through the political spin by getting to the heart of the issue. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman’s trip to Washington has put Middle East policy at the forefront…

When CNN actually decides to give President Donald Trump an inch on anything positive about the economy, it’s the equivalent of a seismic earthquake rippling through the entire media landscape.

Neither ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel nor Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host-of-the-week Ronny Chieng are foreign policy experts, but on Tuesday, they did try to play one on TV. As President Trump welcomed Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to the White House, Kimmel suggested it was all part of a get-rich-quick scheme involving Eric and Don Jr. while Chieng suggested it was part of Trump’…

In classic Audie Cornish fashion, CNN This Morning offered perhaps some of the dumbest analysis possible when it came to American politics and government. This time, the host and her liberal panelists imagined a disconnect existed between President Trump’s foreign policy accomplishments and his famous America First platform.

The Associated Press is doing its utmost to cast President Donald Trump as the bogeyman of America’s economic woes, despite having a sordid record of carrying water for the Bidenomics policies that put us in this mess to begin with.

From Argentina to Japan, MAGA is going global. President Donald Trump’s slogan has long been “America First,” and his movement is all about making America great again — language the president’s foes misunderstand as meaning “isolationism.” In fact, strengthening America requires strengthening our friends as well — and Trump sets an example for those leaders in Latin America, Asia and Europe…

One of America’s most influential economists finally had the moxie to admit what any American with half a brain could see about the Trump tariffs: The elitist, stuck-up doom prophets were all wrong.

MSNBC political analyst and podcast Alex Wagner joined CBS’s Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Wednesday for a truly wild two-segment interview on everything from foreign policy to the No Kings rallies to the government shutdown.

CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! are the only two late night comedy shows with original episodes this week. As such, both men were the only ones able to give their thoughts on the recent ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. While both hosts acknowledged their eternal nemesis, President Donald Trump, should get credit for the deal, they…

The Friday evening cast of PBS News Hour featuring moderator Geoff Bennett, MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart, and New York Times columnist David Brooks briefly broke character to heap praise on President Trump for his role in securing a ceasefire agreement that will see Israeli hostages return home. However, the trio quickly reverted back to form and freaked out that New York…

While some in the media have swallowed their pride and given President Trump credit for securing a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that looks like it will lead to the end of the war, MSNBC’s co-host of The Weeknight, Symone Sanders-Townsend is still stuck in her ways. On Thursday’s show, Sanders-Townsend instead tried to credit the British and French governments, despite them…

Ever since its first post-October 7 show, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show has been the worst of the late night comedy shows on the Israel-Hamas War, so it was good to see host-of-the-week Josh Johnson applaud President Trump for his role in securing a ceasefire agreement that looks like it could lead to the end of the war, even if he did so somewhat reluctantly.

In a stunning rebuke of the rising anti-Semitism spreading across Europe and the West, the CEO of one of the most liberal media companies in the U.S. is coming out in defense of the Jewish State.

For comedic reasons that only he can understand, HBO’s John Oliver devoted most of his time on Sunday’s Last Week Tonight to covering the career of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. During his lengthy diatribe, Oliver would also take aim at one of President Trump’s biggest first term accomplishments: the Abraham Accords. According to Oliver, the accords are to be diminished…
