The Friday afternoon edition of CNN News Central purported to discover another way in which Republican governors are waging culture wars: defunding PBS. Not only is Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt going after “LGBTQ inclusive programming,” but in doing so, he is making it more difficult more people to learn about impending tornados.

For the third episode of Iconic America, PBS explored the history and meaning of the Gadsden Flag and during the portion covering the Tea Party protests during the Obama era, the assorted cast sought to reduce those protests to racists and other bigots.

National politics reporter Eva McKend had some advice for President Biden on Tuesday’s CNN Tonight on how he could fix his falling approval ratings: go further left on everything from the environment, crime, immigration, and abortion.

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough opened up his Monday night primetime special with a solemn, yet outrageous and profoundly unserious rant where he accused Republicans, “cowards,” “pathetic souls,” and “vacuous creatures” of being the modern equivalent of “slaveholders and segregationists.”

Washington Post associate editor Ruth Marcus joined Tuesday’s edition of Andrea Mitchell Reports on MSNBC to talk about the day’s Senate hearing on “ethics reform” and to claim that “any reasonable person” should conclude it is “all so really disturbing” that Republicans played clips of Clarence Thomas in his 1991 confirmation hearing talking about a “high-tech lynching.”

Washington Post columnist Perry Bacon Jr. traveled to his native Kentucky to be interviewed for a segment on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show by temp and fellow native Kentuckian Desi Lydic.

The Daily Show correspondent Roy Wood Jr. is the comedian Saturday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner and to preview his big night, he sat down for an interview with CBS Mornings’s Vladimir Duthiers on Thursday.

For Tuesday’s edition of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, temp host Desi Lydic sat down for an interview with Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg where the two teamed up to attack GOP “culture wars” and Fox News.

Each of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show temp hosts have used their time to talk about issues they care about and Desi Lydic was no exception, using Monday’s show to talk about the status of women in the workplace, but before she did that she undermined any point she would make when she defended Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney marketing campaign, “I am so sick of this ‘trans women are not…
