No Respect: CNN’s Brown Berates GOP’s Burchett Over DOGE
Expanding to two hours after the departure of carnival barker Jim Acosta and before being joined next month by Wolf Blitzer to co-host The Situation Room, CNN’s Pamela Brown has kept up the usual partisan chicanery and Tuesday was no exception with a lengthy, 11-minutes-plus battle with Congressman Tim Burchett (R-TN) that mostly consisted of Brown defending government workers and…

Fraud by Any Other Name at the EPA
The credit card statement contained an unfamiliar charge. I called the fraud department which canceled the payment and immediately sent me a new card. If only the federal government responded with similar alacrity. Instead, the reaction from the exposure and rooting out of fraud – mostly from Democrats – has been shouting profanities and demonstrating outside federal government buildings. Some…

Biased CBS Uses Covert Partisan Appointees to Bemoan Gov’t Layoffs
For CBS, Sunday marked a day for the ages. Along with Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan having engaged in a new act of political masochism and shamelessly peddled a pants-on-fire lie that free speech caused the Holocaust, 60 Minutes not only embraced Germany’s criminalizing of dissent as a model, but tried to convince the populous to commiserate with government workers in…

NBC: Axing USAID Means People Will Die in Cambodia From U.S. Landmines
Making sure all sob stories are fed to the masses, the liberal media are pulling out all the stops to defend and justify the need to keep the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) in place (and offer no suggestions for reform). Friday’s NBC Nightly News sent its China-based correspondent Janis Mackey Frayer to Cambodia to declare innocent Cambodians will die without USAID…

CBS’s Crawford to Liberals: No, We’re Not in a Constitutional Crisis
Three days after CBS Mornings Plus shacked up with the rest of the liberal media’s manufactured narrative about the country either in the midst of or about to enter “a constitutional crisis,” CBS’s longtime Supreme Court correspondent Jan Crawford showed up on Friday’s show to burst the bubble of liberals that we are not, in fact, in a state of chaos.

Mary Bruce Files incoherent Resistance Report Over Layoffs, Tariffs
After a few weeks of Shock and Awe, the Resistance vibe has fully returned to ABC Whirled News Tonight. A goofy item by Chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce demonstrates that the media have no playbook for Trump except the one they ran in 2017.

Scott Turner’s Turn-Around Job at HUD
Scott Turner, former state legislator, NFL player and pastor from Plano, Texas, will take over as the new Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Given that the history of HUD is about everything that Donald Trump wants to change in Washington, Turner has a great challenge and opportunity. That is, HUD is all about government.

Trump and Musk Are Spring Cleaning the Government
It’s a bit early for spring cleaning but that’s what President Trump and his faithful companion Elon Musk appear to be doing. When I was a child, every spring my mother would open closets and check the attic and basement for clothes and other items that could be discarded or given to charity. Sometimes it was difficult to part with them, especially if they had sentimental value, but generally…

ABC, CBS: Trump, DOGE Causing ‘Frightening’ ‘Constitutional Crisis’
ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings Plus chose to do their part Tuesday in furthering the coordinated and wholly manufactured narrative that America’s already in or on the verge of a “frightening” “constitutional crisis” because the Trump administration has expressed opposition to the judge shopping and perpetual thwarting of nearly his entire agenda by activist,…

ABC, NBC Skip Record Trump Approval to Warn of ‘Constitution Crisis’
On Monday, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today saw no reason amid their latest hyperventilating about President Trump fulfilling a campaign promise of shrinking the size of government — and that doing so has triggered “a constitutional crisis” — to note a CBS poll showing his approval at a record 53 percent.

Elon Musk Should Take on Social Security
If I say that Elon Musk is the smartest, boldest, most creative entrepreneur in the world, I don’t think I will get pushback. President Donald Trump’s move to bring him to Washington and put him at the top of a new Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, to do the seemingly impossible -- to streamline a vastly outsized government spending behemoth -- injects hope that yes, maybe there is…

Chainsaw: Veterans Affairs Saws Off $178k in Politico Subscriptions
In another blow to the liberal media’s corrupt spigot of lucrative government subscriptions paid for with your tax dollars, President Trump’s Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) — led by newly confirmed Secretary Doug Collins — said Monday it cancelled $178,000 in Swampy subscriptions for Politico Pro that can now be used to help the VA fulfill its mission of caring for servicemen and women.…

Ending the Taxpayer-Funded Blue Pipeline
This week, a massive firefight broke out between Democrats and Team Trump over the White House takeover of the U.S. Agency for International Development. The USAID managed approximately $40 billion in fiscal year 2023; its original mandate, established under the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, was to spread American influence across the globe through aid to various governmental and non-…

Politico 'Note to Our Readers' on Funding Falls Flat With Readers
Politico issued an emergency note addressing claims that it receives indirect payments from government agencies through subscriptions to its Politico Pro service. The note avoids naming USAID, the agency at the center of the controversy. Politico insists it is privately owned with no government funding. But millions of money in subscriptions is government funding.
