Dana Bash

PBS News Hour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez joined the Wednesday edition of CNN’s Inside Politics to freak out about President Donald Trump’s plans to close, or at least downsize, the Department of Education. As Barron-Lopez tells it, Trump is trying to privatize public education, and shuttering the department will start a domino effect that will lead states to…

CNN was in pretty typical form Monday – absorbed with Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and still quite comfortable making up and promoting unsubstantiated conspiracy theories about him on the spot. On Inside Politics, Dana Bash interviewed former CFPB director Rohit Chopra, ostensibly on Musk’s plan to cut the agency, and Chopra conjectured wildly about…

Scott Jennings, former special assistant to George W. Bush, provided his usual, much-needed touch of sanity to CNN Sunday morning, on State of the Union. As a panel hosted by Dana Bash railed against the Trump administration in a by now pretty true-to-form way, Jennings forced them to listen as he confronted them with actual facts about the current state of affairs, and the proper…

On Tuesday’s edition of CNN’s Inside Politics, aviation correspondent Pete Muntean told host Dana Bash that it appeared the Delta Airlines flight that crashed in Toronto on Monday did so due to a landing gear malfunction. He also noted how there is no common thread linking it with other recent plane crashes, but that didn’t stop Bash and her assembled panel from noticing “this…

CNN’s outrageously biased ongoing treatment of Elon Musk took a turn Thursday that was so over-the-top it was actually a little funny. On that day’s episode of Inside Politics, Dana Bash hosted two of Musk’s especially vitriolic detractors, and her attempts to cover for them were so ridiculous, it was actually a little more than the pair could just sit there and take.

Considering they just spectacularly lost a major defamation suit, CNN has seemed remarkably unconcerned about throwing around wild accusations. On Monday’s episode of Inside Politics With Dana Bash, Bash seemingly suggested that billionaire Elon Musk had made his money through illegal means, though she never provided evidence. She also lashed out at President Trump’s voters, calling…

CNN was unglued late Thursday morning and early afternoon over President Donald Trump’s remarks at the White House press briefing on the deadly mi-air collision over the Potomac River with aviation correspondent Pete Muntean — who had otherwise been invaluable in his analysis and reporting — joining other unsurprising characters in channeling now-former colleague Jim Acosta.

On CNN's State of the Union, host Dana Bash repeatedly tries to cut off Lindsey Graham when he mentions Biden's pardon of the killer of two FBI agents and of many of his family members, and Kamala Harris having raised bail money for people arrested for post-George Floyd crimes. Bash only wants to talk about Trump's pardons of J6 participants.

Despite having to pay out the nose due to losing a defamation lawsuit yet again, CNN insists on continuing to disseminate the stupid “Salute Hoax”. The latest instance came via the most recent episode of CNN State of the Union.

Nobody was expecting leftwing tv journalists to be anything short of bitter on the day Donald Trump assumed the office of the Presidency for the second time. But for anyone hoping to get a good chuckle out of the CNN and MSNBC panelists’ emotional reactions and tortured analysis, the coverage did not disappoint.

On Tuesday afternoon following Pete Hegseth’s five-hour-and-15-minute-long confirmation hearing to lead the Pentagon, CNN immediately made clear it was not having a good time, continuing to peddle the alcoholism and tattoo conspiracy theories about the “Kavanaugh-esque” Hegseth, suggested he was in over his head, and Democratic senators asked apt and thorough questions.

On Wednesday morning, President-elect Trump weighed in on the fires raging through Los Angeles County, blaming California Governor Gavin Newsom for the disaster. During an Inside Politics panel discussion on the matter, CNN’s Nia-Malika Henderson accused Trump of having “no sense that Californians are Americans” and lacking empathy because of his feuds with “Democrat[s] in general.”…

As most of the mainstream media attempts to cover the end of the Biden Presidency with praises of its many accomplishments, CNN has come to its own conclusions. Thursday’s Inside Politics with Dana Bash offered a more sober view of the Presidency as CNN Senior Reporter Edward-Isaac Dovere pointed out the discontent of the public, noting Biden’s insignificance compared to the Trump…

Christmas may be upon us but politics rests for no one, as we see on CNN State of the Union. Host Dana Bash once again tries to push the tired “King Elon” narrative but CNN commentator Scott Jennings was there to quickly and expeditiously shut it down.
