On this episode of the NewsBusters Podcast, Managing Editor Curtis Houck and I examine the media's scattered coverage of President Biden's constitutionally dubious student loan bailouts as different factions voice outrage. We also speak with NewsBusters research director Scott Whitlock about the lack of coverage of the anniversary of the botch withdrawal from Afghanistan, which killed 13…

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell warned Americans on Friday that more pain was on the way as they tried to float President Biden’s sinking economy. And on CNN’s At This Hour, White House correspondent John Harwood flashed a sadistic streak, boosting the administration’s argument that all the pain and anxiety Americans were being subjected to was really for their own benefit down…

On Thursday night, NBC Nightly News committed a random act of journalism during their broadcast segment on the political fallout from President Joe Biden’s student loan bailout executive order. NBC even highlighted the growing divisions in the Democrat Party over the bailout. 

Thursday’s White House press briefing represented the massive political landmine that’s become the Biden administration’s plan to forgive $10 to $20 million in student loans for Americans making under $125,000 as, for the second day in a row, reporters from across the political spectrum had serious concerns about its legality, purpose, and rollout.

One way to deal with "white violence and presence."

While many in the liberal media were lauding President Biden for announcing he plans to cancel between $10,000 and $20,000 in student debt per borrower, CNN’s At This Hour swallowed the hard pill and admitted that not only was the move legally questionable but also could cause inflation to spike yet again. But whatever goodwill that reporting may have garnered was squandered…

CNN senior political analyst John Avlon joined Thursday’s edition of New Day to declare that GOP opposition to President Biden’s student loan forgiveness order is unwarranted because it is “good economic policy” and the White House is correct to say that Republicans aren't in a position to complain because of their history of cutting taxes.

Thanks to President Biden’s seemingly endless vacations, Wednesday marked the first White House press briefing in 15 days and, not surprisingly, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s succinctness didn’t improve. Worst yet, it came as President Biden announced he would forgive $10,000 to $20,000 in student loans for millions of Americans. Sure enough, Fox’s Peter Doocy and Real Clear Politics’s…

Wednesday night's edition of Don Lemon Tonight had a rare moment of sanity when discussing President Joe Biden's student loan bailout. CNN economics commentator Catherine Rampell slammed the plan as essentially a waste of money since it is structured in a way that bails out wealthy people with MBAs and medical degrees who are perfectly capable of paying the loans back. 

You knew it would never stop at Confederate generals. Our young Taliban has gotten the taste for erasing history – all of it (or at least that which doesn’t highlight transgendered black lesbian abortion pioneers).

Are black female college students uniquely unable to manage their social lives without using abortion as birth control?

Frailty, thy name is … college student.

There’s no one who loves to cry more than liberals not getting their way. A perfect example is one Gianna Palmo who, in a TikTok posted July 6, accused Palm Beach Atlantic University of homophobia after she was denied admission. Pink News reported the story July 15. 

This week, a professor went viral during congressional testimony regarding the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision overruling Roe v. Wade. During her testimony, professor Khiara Bridges of Berkeley Law School refused to acknowledge any value at all in unborn children, instead stating, “I think that the person with the capacity for pregnancy has value and they should have the ability to control what…
