Political Scandals

When doing a "Friday Fact Check" segment, there are countless options for guests that could provide intelligent thoughts on the complex matters of the day. Given those controversies include what the Obama Administration official was up to during its final days in office, former deputy national security advisor and noted spinmeister Ben Rhodes would appear to be low on at that list, but that didn'…

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace continued covering for the Obama administration on her show Deadline: White House, Thursday afternoon by completely dismissing the unmasking Flynn scandal as a “made up fantasy” like the “tooth fairy.”  

Well, if Jeremy Bash says so, it's time to move along -- nothing to see here! On today's Morning Joe, the aforementioned Bash assured, with respect to the unmasking of Michael Flynn, that there is "absolutely nothing here." And why wouldn't we take whatever Bash says with respect to allegations of malfeasance by the Obama administration as the pure, unadulterated truth? After all, Bash is a…

When Brian Williams interviewed former CIA Director and current MSNBC analyst John Brennan on Thursday's Deadline: White House on the latest controversies surrounding Michael Flynn, the Obama Administration and their energetic unmasking, the viewer could be forgiven for thinking that Williams was Brennan's defense attorney. He read from a Brennan tweet denouncing Trump for having a "despot's…

In an effort to aid presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden in his struggle to campaign during the coronavirus crisis, MSNBC’s The Last Word hosted an hour-long interview/town hall special featuring the former Vice President and Stacey Abrams, who's been obsessive in her desire to be his running mate. Among the softball questions, slow-pitched to Biden was whether or not he would commit to not…

While ABC’s morning news program Good Morning America ignored what President Trump has dubbed the “Obamagate” story Thursday, the network found a way to do some damage control for the previous administration later on The View.

On Friday's Real Time show on HBO, liberal host Bill Maher repeated several pieces of misinformation to undermine Tara Reade's sexual assault accusations against Joe Biden as the HBO host accused his fellow liberals of giving too much attention to the story as Democratic nominee Biden runs against President Donald Trump.

In kicking off Sunday’s un-Reliable Sources, host and liberal hack Brian Stelter tried to distract from the corrupt FBI officials exposed via the revelations in the General Michael Flynn case by suggesting: “right-wing” coverage of the case was an attempt to “downplay” and “normalize” the massive death toll from the Chinese Coronavirus.

During the early part of the Trump Administration it was not uncommon for Intel Committee Chairman Adam Schiff to tell every TV camera and sympathetic journalist he could find that it was beyond doubt that Trump had colluded with Russia during the 2016 campaign. But recently released transcripts showed former Obama officials, despite their public proclamations to the contrary, had no such…

A week ahead of Attorney General William Barr’s decision on Thursday to have the Department of Justice drop their case against former General Michael Flynn, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to announce the innocence of his former National Security Adviser. “What happened to General Michael Flynn, a war hero, should never be allowed to happen to a citizen of the United States again,” Trump…

Nearly two and a half years after accepting a plea deal because he was entrapped by anti-Trump FBI investigators, former General Michael Flynn saw light at the end of the tunnel Thursday. After the case was reviewed by the Department of Justice, Attorney General William Barr order the case be dropped citing the fact Flynn had not lied about anything material or central to the Russia investigation…

Just four days after the broadcast network evening newscasts finally covered the rape allegation against presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden for the first time, after ignoring it for over a month, ABC, CBS, and NBC had had enough. During their Monday evening newscasts, none of them ran stories on the subject despite developments still breaking over the course of the day. NBC’s Today was the…

Tucked into the final minutes of Sunday’s Meet the Press, NBC political director Chuck Todd led a panel discussion, featuring Cook Political Report’s Amy Walter and NBC Capitol Hill correspondent Kasie Hunt, where they groaned about calls to investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden for an allegation of rape. One even claimed there was no “huge appetite” for it. Meanwhile, the call…
