The Atlantic was once a respectable publication founded in 1857 and in the following decades featuring some of the most valued writers in America with names like Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Harriet Beecher Stowe and others. Now it's trashing Trump for "dehumanizing language" -- as if the Left hasn't done that to Republicans for decades.

After days of declaring that Donald Trump admires Adolf Hitler and dismissing evidence that his scoop that Trump cursed in a racist manner at the cost of a military funeral was false, The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, took his place in the anchor’s chair of PBS’s Washington Week with The Atlantic and declared it is only “allegedly extreme” for Kamala Harris to…

The latest edition of the Washington Week with The Atlantic weekly political roundtable tried to change the subject from President Biden’s obvious frailty and mental decline to Donald Trump’s odd anecdotes at campaign rallies. Show host (and editor of The Atlantic magazine) Jeffrey Goldberg opened the show by noting the looming Biden-Trump debate,…

With President Biden arguing that former President Donald Trump is a threat to democracy, CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan decided it would be a good idea to try to help make that case. On Friday’s CNN News Central, O’Sullivan was seen on the road with Trump voters, where he was aghast at the idea that they view America as a republic, not a democracy.

Tuesday’s Morning Joe featured a segment lambasting the Tennessee legislature for – not being Democrats. The bizarre hit job covered The Atlantic writer Anne Applebaum’s piece asserting that the State of Tennessee could not be classified as a democracy, but instead was a fascist dictatorship. The reason for this? Well, because voters elected a Republican supermajority.

New Twitter owner Elon Musk gave reporter Matt Taibbi of Substack access to internal Twitter documents about the media platform’s decision to spike the Hunter Biden laptop story and about how “the Biden team” had a direct pipeline to Twitter executives. 

Despite all the media “debunking,” fact-checking, censoring, and Russia-ing back in 2020, Hunter Biden’s laptop has proven to be legitimate. Given how aggressive the press were in their coordinated effort to tar the story as a wacky conspiracy theory, you’d think they might have learned something from their mistakes. But they haven't.

Between last Thursday and Friday, the left-leaning Atlantic magazine and the Democratic-connected Institute of Politics (IOP) of the University of Chicago held a conference to warn and find solutions to so-called “disinformation.” Following two viral moments with liberal speakers, NewsBusters reached out to Daniel Schmidt and Chris Phillips, who sparked said headlines with questions…

The editor-in-chief of Atlantic magazine memory holes the Hunter Biden laptop story disinformation while one of its writers dismisses the story because she conveniently doesn't find it "interesting."

During a hilariously titled conference "Disinformation and the Erosion of Democracy" at the University of Chicago's Institute of Politics on Wednesday, The Atlantic staff writer Anne Applebaum and Democratic strategist David Axelrod were caught completely off guard when questioned about the lack of media coverage of Hunter Biden's laptop and their quickness to dismiss it as "Russian…

As Russia continued preparations to invade Ukraine on President Biden's watch, on Tuesday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe bizarrely tried to point a finger of blame at former President Trump instead. Hosts and pundits claimed the only reason Vladimir Putin didn’t further dismember the eastern European nation during Trump's presidency was because the Republican already gave Putin everything he…

A large minority of American voters chose Donald Trump for president, and their tax dollars go in part to fund National Public Radio....which trashes the president as a wannabe tyrant. A recent Fresh Air interview was headlined "Journalist Explains Why Republican Leaders Back Trump's 'Proto-Authoritarian Cult'."

"Apocalypse Now" would have been a fitting title for this Morning Joe segment from today's show. It featured three women painting a terrifying portrait of life under President Trump, and a prediction of further doom to come.
