On Thursday morning amid the network recaps of Wednesday night’s GOP presidential debate between Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Nikki Haley, NBC’s Today and senior Capitol Hill correspondent Garrett Haake offered a pants-on-fire lie that the two “launch[ed]” repeated attacks on each other’s records and honesty and “barely criticiz[ed]” frontrunner Donald Trump “[d]espite trailing…

After taking trips down memory lane on Tuesday and Thursday with the six most pro-Hamas moments and grillings from the left, respectively, we’re going to open 2024 with the 12 best moments – battles, beatdowns, and hardballs – from 2023, the first full year of the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre’s term at the podium.

The network evening newscasts were unsure whether to hail, cover neutrally, or condemn the latest U.S. prisoner swap with an authoritarian regime. In this case, the exchange with Venezuela’s Maduro dictatorial regime, which returned his notorious bagman, Alex Saab, in exchange for fugitive “Fat Leonard” and 10 additional hostages.

Monday morning on the big three broadcast networks brought more regularly scheduled Trump derangement, as anchors and reporters alike worked themselves into a frenzy over comments the former President had made at a New Hampshire campaign rally.

On Monday, CBS Mornings joined ABC and NBC with a hair-on-fire warning for President Biden that if he continued to support Israel and oppose Hamas, he risked losing the Muslim vote and possibly losing the 2024 election. Of course, the source of CBS’s moral cowardice in standing up to the terrorist organization was the fear that Democrats could lose the key state of Michigan and former…

Monday’s CBS Mornings aired a scathing report on Argentina’s new president-elect, Javier Milei, in which senior political correspondent Ed O’Keefe shamelessly smeared Milei from every angle imaginable.

Tuesday’s White House press briefing was largely clear-eyed about the horrors caused Friday by Hamas terrorists in Israel with over a dozen Americans dead and nearly two dozen unaccounted for. There were some tough questions from usual corners, but also some predictably pro-Hamas questions standing up for the plight of modern-day Nazis.

On Thursday, Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelenskyy made a visit to Washington D.C. to meet with President Joe Biden and congressional leadership to ask for more money to fight off Russia. Despite billions already spent and earmarked for the Ukraine effort, the three evening news broadcasts scolded House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and his Republican members for being reluctant to spend even more…

The Biden border crisis has reared its ugly head in the last week and brought more misery and ruin to border towns, including Eagle Pass, Texas. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre offered clownish spin Thursday afternoon that President Biden “has taken...historic action” to “fix this issue” and, not surprisingly, she received not only some hardballs from select reporters, but a…

On Sunday night and Monday morning, the broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were more or less obsequious vessels in channeling the so-called press of the country they were reporting on in the communist Vietnamese by trumpeting President Biden’s overseas trip. But not surprisingly, they all helped Biden’s reelection campaign by refusing to show Biden’s ironclad refusal at a Hanoi press…

Fox White House correspondent Peter Doocy finally made his return to the White House Briefing Room Monday after paternity leave and, given his long time away, he came out guns blazing on Biden family corruption and even the latest attempt by the federal bureaucracy to further encroach on the lives of ordinary Americans. On both counts, he made Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre look even more…

On Sunday night and Monday morning, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC linked arms in an attempt to mortally wound Governor Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) presidential campaign, painting him as a dead-man walking and the primary over. In doing so, the liberal media can shift to trashing Donald Trump and doing what they did in 2020: helm another successful Joe Biden campaign.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has been widely criticized for her inability to field even basic inquiries about the scandals plaguing President Biden. Despite the President’s January 2021 pledge to “bring transparency and truth back to the government,” Jean-Pierre has failed to answer practically every such question she’s faced.

Sadly depriving the public of the comically partisan White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates, the Biden regime trotted out Principal Deputy Press Secretary Olivia Dalton on Tuesday to fill in for Karine Jean-Pierre. In turn, Dalton faced some hardballs about the Biden economy, a faux-hardball from a Team Biden apple polisher, and new queries about Hunter Biden’s life of corruption.
