Liberals & Democrats

On Friday's CNN This Morning, CNN's John Avlon presented a "Reality Check" segment in which he denied reality. Democrats, as a party, support abortion up until birth. The woman's "right to choose" is absolute. But when Republicans point this about "morally monstrous liberals" (as Avlon put it), they're somehow not being "real" because abortions late in pregnancy are "rare."

On Tuesday's The ReidOut, far-left MSNBC host Joy Reid gathered a panel of liberal entertainers who were pushing for Israel to halt its war against Hamas. As part of this panel, actor Wallace Shawn declared that his fellow Jews believed it was fine to have "no rules to guide them" in protecting themselves.

Joe Biden’s party is at war with itself. Scenes last weekend of protesters scaling the White House fence and shouting down Sen. Cory Booker at a Democratic rally in New Jersey are only outward manifestations of a deeper inner turmoil. The Democratic Party’s identity is inseparable from a morality tale in which the world is divided between white, wealthy oppressors and nonwhite, poorer victims…

ABC, CBS, and NBC all covered Wednesday morning the bipartisan censure of far-left Congresswoman and Squad member Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) for her deep-seated hatred of Israel and anti-Semitic rhetoric, most recently posting a video with pro-Hamas supporters chanting “from the river to the sea.” 

The House censured Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib on Tuesday knowingly and falsely accusing Israel of bombing a Gaza hospital and promoting videos with the slogan “from the river to the sea,” which evokes calls for a second Holocaust. On Wednesday, MSNBC Capitol Hill correspondent Julie Tsirkin joined Ana Cabrera Reports and claimed all Tlaib did was criticize Israel.

On Morning Joe, a furious Joe Scarborough screams at White House aides who are reportedly advising Biden not to attack Trump. Scarborough, to the contrary, urges the Biden campaign to go after Trump with "no holds barred."

This week on NBC’s Today, they went through quite the transformation from caring about anti-Semitism on college campuses (with only passing, almost faux attempts at bothsidesism with Islamophobia) to Thursday creeping toward bothsidesism to Friday pouting with pro-Hamas students being identified in public as terrorist sympathizers.

PBS NewsHour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez joined CNN’s Inside Politics panel on Wednesday to discuss how progressives are reacting to the Israeli-Hamas War and to suggest that Democrats who refused to condemn terrorism did so, not because they hate Israel, but because they are simply critics of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

On October 7, the Jewish people suffered their greatest single-day loss of life since the Holocaust in a horrific massacre that should cause people to think twice before comparing someone or something to Hitler, the Nazis, or their crimes. Unfortunately, the news media only seem to apply that standard to one side.

According to a survey done by the Harvard Crimson in 2022, 80% of the faculty at Harvard University self-identified as “liberal.” Thirty-seven percent self-identified as “very liberal.” Only 1% self-identified as conservative. This snapshot of the politics of the faculty at the nation’s oldest and leading university is not exceptional. Surveys of most university faculties show them…

Since last Friday, ABC News has avoided mentioning President Biden’s new primary challenger Congressman Dean Phillips (D-MN) on their flagship newscasts (Good Morning America and World News Tonight). They relegated all mentions of Phillips’ campaign to side programming like America This Morning (at 5 a.m.), This Week (their Sunday show), and The View…
