Morning Joe Turns Fauci Hearing into Trump Bashing with Phony Stunt

Thursday’s Morning Joe spent little time on Anthony Fauci’s actual refusal to answer questions and far more time insisting the real COVID villains were Donald Trump and his “spineless minions.” Joe Scarborough opened with a puerile stunt, pretending he hadn't seen the hearing, but was sure the Republicans were finally going to admit that the president had lied to the American people about the…

PBS Hosts Fiery Feminist Filmmaker: 'Burn it All Down,' Blame Reagan

Monday’s PBS News Hour snuck in liberal ideology under the guise of its benign-sounding “arts and culture series” Canvas. The online heading: “Documentary explores why U.S. mothers lack support systems found in other countries.” It’s still all Reagan’s fault for opposing the "Equal Rights Amendment."

In Lieu Of Fauci Hearings, Daily Show Hypes 'Presidential Neck Vag'

None of the three late night comedy shows that aired original episodes on Wednesday could bring themselves to even acknowledge the existence of the Fauci hearings, and it wasn’t for a lack of time.

‘It's a Joke, But It's Not a Joke’: MS NOW Claims Trump Wants 2028 Run

When it comes to political comedy or satire, the left only tolerates it from their side. As soon as someone makes a joke they don’t like, they bring out the cancel culture mob. This phenomenon is easily observable when the leftist media tries to cover President Donald Trump, which is what Ali Velshi did on Monday’s episode of The 11th Hour on MS NOW when he and Vox

WILD: CBS Defends Fauci on Closing Schools, Need for Gain of Function
