The Washington Post’s Sunday Style section was headlined by a story that gushed over Succession star Brian Cox — who’s recently been the voice behind McDonald’s commercials — lashing out at “deeply stupid” people in America and Israel engaged in “dangerous” and “gross stupidity” similar to the Holocaust, making for a “pretty horrible time that we’re living in.” 

There is someone out there that is targeted for as much disdain from the media and the political establishment as Donald Trump. That would be Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Democrat Abdul El-Sayed is condemning President Donald Trump’s authority to ban CNN, MS Now and Politico from the White House – but, a statement by the Socialist-aligned Michigan Democrat Senate candidate called for another president to “purge the police and media.”

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez may not be very popular in Spain or Europe as a whole, but luckily for him, there’s always the American media for him to run to for his daily affirmations. While in town for the U.N. General Assembly, Sanchez sat down with Comedy Central’s The Weekly Show podcast host, Jon Stewart, on Wednesday to join him in mocking President Trump’s speech.

NBC’s Seth Meyers reacted on Wednesday’s edition of Late Night to President Trump’s speech to the U.N. General Assembly with one bizarre claim after another. When Trump threatened consequences for Iran if it does not make a deal, Meyers labeled it “demented” and analogized him to Conan the Barbarian, who is “talking about war crimes” before comparing it to murdering the pizza delivery boy.

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host-of-the-week, Desi Lyric, had a rough Tuesday. On one hand, she gushed over the reaction of the Iranian and Cuban delegations to President Trump’s speech to the U.N. General Assembly. On the other, she later welcomed singer Tom Morello to promote his new album that he claimed will help “serve as a bulwark against the rising tide of authoritarianism” in the…

The American media, as usual in the post-Vietnam era, really feels its need to be neutral when America goes to war. If the president is Republican, they sound determined to proclaim it's a failure from the first assault.

MS NOW hosts Eugene Daniels and Symone Sanders-Townsend welcomed hard-left Twitch streamer Hasan Piker to their Clock It podcast on Thursday to hear what Piker actually believes about politics in his own words. While there was some pushback from the hosts when it came to Piker’s defense of Hamas, when it came to Piker’s Marxism and comments about 9/11, it was mostly the “what’s going on?” sort…

Christiane Amanpour, the eponymous host of PBS’s Amanpour and Company, reflected on the 25 years since 9/11 on Friday by claiming the attack was “the beginning of intense Islamophobia” in America, which continues to be “so visceral and last to this day.” Meanwhile, Prof. Vali Nasr would naturally agree while also claiming the Bush administration and 20 years of American foreign policy reacted…

With the mid-terms fast approaching and control of the House and Senate well within reach of Democrats, the focus of the left wing media has been to go to bat for candidates who can make that happen, and while bashing Israel is a constant theme for those candidates the media has been at it for years. Thursday on CNN's The Situation Room, a one sided report from Lebanon was a perfect example.…

Rosie O’Donnell kicked off her second night of guest hosting ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday, much like she did on Monday, with Kimmel-esque nicknames for President Trump coupled with accusations of fascism while not appreciating the irony of being able to host a show in such an allegedly fascist environment.

Anthony Anderson closed out his week of guest hosting ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday by doing his best Kimmel impersonation when talking about the situation with the Strait of Hormuz. According to Anderson, it is difficult to know who to believe, “The authoritarian psychopaths or the Iranians?”

Safe to say? President Trump is not happy with The Washington Post. Or, as he called it, “The Washington Compost”.
