Judiciary

Most of the political junkies were surprised with a Friday decision overturning Roe vs. Wade, and the liberals were wailing and gnashing their teeth. But let's have a little joy before we chronicle the media meltdowns. Scott Whitlock talks about the media omission of "Jane's Revenge."

Abortion is the new current thing in the media cycle, and the liberals have taken the opportunity to attack enduring American institutions because they don’t bend to their whims. Molly Coleman and Tristin Brown of Teen Vogue join the chorus of lefties in arguing that the “current Supreme Court is illegitimate.” 

Most people are familiar with the phrase “sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” The incendiary rhetoric that has engulfed our political system has demonstrated that especially violent words can cause hurt, even death, to others. The most recent example is a California man who showed up last week at the Maryland home of Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Police…

Despite having had almost a week off due to the Summit of the Americas, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s performance and preparation showed zero progress during Monday’s briefing as she fumbled and jumbled her way through questions about everything from the attempted assassination of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the baby formula shortage to the economy.

NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck returned early Tuesday to the Fox News Channel’s Fox News @ Night with Shannon Bream to call out the liberal media’s burying of the failed plot to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and how attacks on pro-lifers signal a dangerous escalation in political rhetoric.

Amid White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s worst press briefing yet as she faced questions Wednesday about the baby formula shortage, the economy, inflation, and presidential leadership, Bloomberg’s Justin Sink came from the left on abortion by twice wanting to know why Biden hasn’t made abortion more of a focus in his administration following the leaked Supreme Court draft opinion…

Wednesday’s White House press briefing featured five questions on the so-called pause of the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) dangerously Orwellian Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) and the resignation of its controversial head, Nina Jankowicz. In the midst of the questions from Wall Street Journal’s Tarini Parti and Fox’s Peter Doocy, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre…

After angry public reaction to the leaked Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito draft opinion on reversing Roe v. Wade, Justice Clarence Thomas said: “We are becoming addicted to wanting particular outcomes, not living with the outcomes we don't like. We can't be an institution that can be bullied into giving you just the outcomes you want. The events from earlier this week are a symptom…

In the aftermath of a leaked Supreme Court draft majority decision prospectively overruling Roe v. Wade, the Left in the United States has gone into full-fledged panic mode. That outsized panic has manifested as a variety of unconvincing or blatantly immoral arguments: the argument that abortion is a necessary adjunct to women's freedom -- as though contraception doesn't exist, and as…

News of a violent terror attack against a pro-life clinic in Madison, Wisconsin, got the quickie treatment at the Latino networks, which spent a total of 74 seconds reporting the attack that included throwing two Molotov cocktails into the facilities, lighting a fire and posting a menacing graffiti warning that “If abortions aren't safe, then you aren't either”.

Thursday’s CBS Mornings kept up the drumbeat in favor of murdering babies, falsely claiming Wednesday’s unsuccessful Senate vote on abortion was “to codify Roe vs. Wade” when, in reality, it would have gone far beyond the notion of allowing women to get abortions and instead legalize abortion up to birth on a national scale.

Filling in again for boss Tim Graham but reunited with my usual fill-in co-host Nick “Night Train” Fondacaro, we continued our focus Wednesday on the liberal media’s systemic aversion to facts when it comes to the abortion debate. After sharing our latest study on pro-abortion versus pro-life voices, I spent a few minutes reflecting on the end of an era with Jen Psaki’s departure from the…

Irony doesn’t begin to explain why pro-choice activists chose Mother’s Day weekend to picket the homes of Justice Brett Kavanaugh and Chief Justice John Roberts, who appear ready to overturn Roe v. Wade. In an age when there appear to be fewer consequences for violating moral or statutory laws, demonstrators and protesters outside the Supreme Court building seem to have violated at…

One day after telling Fox News anchor Dana Perino that seeing Supreme Court justices and their families being harassed by mobs of left-wing protesters at their homes makes her “want to cry,” federal judge Esther Salas appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America Wednesday to reiterate that point and demand Congress pass legislation to protect the judiciary. The appearances by Judge Salas…
