CBS Again Sucks Up to Pro-Hamas Columbia Activist, Celebrates Release
Last week, a federal judge blocked the Trump administration from seeking to deport anti-Israel, pro-Hamas Columbia University student protester Moshen Mahdawi and ordered his release from prison. His arrest sparked a slew of liberal media attention, particularly on CBS’s lead shows, CBS Mornings and the CBS Evening News. On the latter’s Monday edition (and then the former on…

PBS Clashes With Rufo: Deportations Make Trump a Free-Speech Hypocrite
Perhaps responding to pressure from the Trump Administration threatening federal funding of PBS and NPR over their liberal slant, the PBS News Hour is beginning to pepper its guest list with the occasional conservative. But those guests don’t get the typical soft-soap treatment reserved for liberal activists (and almost never labeled as such) but instead receive a defensive, combative…

NPR Whitewashes Pro-Hamas Leftist: 'Vocal Opposition to Antisemitism'
National Public Radio has a dubious scoop -- the first interview of Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi, who has helped lead the pro-Hamas protest movement on campus that cropped up after Hamas massacred and kidnapped hundreds of Israeli citizens in October 2023. Mahdawi has been detained by the government at an immigration office in Vermont and now under threat of deportation, by Leila…

My ‘Fox & Friends First’ Appearance: Michelle Obama Is Meghan Markle
I joined Fox and Friends First to discuss how Obama has become the Meghan Markle of White House History. We also covered the Left’s antisemitic double standards when it comes to free speech on college campuses.

NPR: 'Scholars Say U.S. Is Swiftly Heading Toward Authoritarianism'
National Public Radio’s “roving national correspondent” Frank Langfitt uncovered the least surprising story of the week: Liberal professors think Trump is a tyrant. The actual headline for the Tuesday morning text report read “Hundreds of scholars say U.S. is swiftly heading toward authoritarianism.” It’s laughable to portray left-wing campus professors as agents of democracy and freedom, but…

PBS's Marx-Quoting 'Conservative' Urges Strikes To Protest Trump
If there were still any questions that PBS is a liberal network in need of defunding, Friday’s News Hour removed any remaining doubts. In a wild segment, host William Brangham preferred the words of the “nonpartisan” League of Women Voters over an anti-Trump law professor who stated the country is not in a constitutional crisis. Meanwhile, New York Times columnist and…

MSNBC Hints Trump Defunding Harvard Is Impeachable
At MSNBC, old habits die hard. On Thursday’s installment of The Last Word, former Mueller Probe prosecutor turned MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann raised the prospect of impeachment for President Trump’s attempts to defund Harvard.

CBS Spends Over 10 Mins Fretting ICE Scooped Up Pro-Hamas Student
Along with joining their fellow broadcast networks in rushing to the defense of illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia despite records showing his less-than-stellar conduct, CBS used its flagship newscasts on Tuesday and Wednesday to bemoan the plight of Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi, who helped lead the pro-Hamas protest movement on campus, which resulted in police needing riot…

Lame CNN Fact Check: Harvard Isn't Liberal Because Ted Cruz Attended
CNN senior justice correspondent Evan Perez did his best Daniel Dale impression on Thursday’s episode of The Situation Room, where he attempted to fact-check President Trump’s assessment of Harvard, in his words, as a “cesspool of leftist thinking,” as false because conservatives, such as Ted Cruz, have attended the school.

Colbert: Trump Placing 'Insane Dictatorial Demands' On Harvard
The idea that the late night comedy shows are just MSNBC with jokes was on full display on Tuesday’s installment of CBS’s The Late Show. Host Stephen Colbert claimed that the Trump Administration’s recent demands on Harvard were “ridiculous,” “insane,” and “dictatorial,” but Colbert never provided any context for why those demands were given.

REGIME MEDIA: The Legacy Newscasts Go All-In for Harvard
News of the Trump administration’s demands of Harvard University as a condition of continued access to federal funding broke today, and the liberal institutions are up in arms. The evening network newscasts went in on the story, defending Harvard like it was an illegal alien gangbanger about to get deported to El Salvador.

CNN Casts Trump-Harvard Showdown As About Free Expression—It's Not
On CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish casts the showdown between the Trump administration and Harvard and other universities over federal funding as being about free expression. It's not. Universities can teach whatever they want. But they can't have it both ways. If Harvard wants to have complete freedom of operation, it should make like Hillsdale College and reject any federal or state…

Networks Bemoan Trump’s ‘Dramatic Turn’ Targeting Far-Left Harvard
When the “Big Three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC weren’t lamenting Tuesday morning the plight of their beloved “Maryland man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia, they each complaining about the Trump administration freezing $2 billion in taxpayer funding from far-left and private Harvard University, siding with the university’s insistence it spend taxpayer dollars as it sees fit.

Maddow Ignores Anti-Semitism, Says Trump's Waging War On Universities
Liberals may view MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow as something of an intellectual, but her Monday show disproved that notion. If all you did was listen to Maddow, you would come to the conclusion that Trump is waging war on universities simply because he can and not because they have an anti-Semitism problem.
