Feminist Hides After Tweet on ACB 'Weaponizing Her White Womanhood'

Twitchy expressed surprise at how feminist journalists came unglued as Amy Coney Barrett appeared at the White House with seven children (including two black children adopted from Haiti, and one with Down Syndrome.)

New York Times Begs You to Ignore Damning Trump Dossier Details

Recent bombshell revelations regarding the infamous “dossier” of Russian disinformation, which began its sordid life as opposition research funded by Democrats for the 2016 presidential campaign, before being used to try to dislodge Donald Trump from office, made the New York Times under the blatantly biased and remarkably defensive headline “Justice Dept.

Dem Lapdog Todd: GOP Are 'Hypocrites,' 'Inventing' Precedent on SCOTUS

On Sunday, Meet The Press host Chuck Todd put his partisan affiliation on full display while interviewing Senators Roy Blunt (R-MO) and Corey Booker (D-NJ) about President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee. Todd accused Republicans of being “a bunch of hypocrites” for wanting to hold hearings for a SCOTUS nominee during an election year — something they’d opposed back in 2016 — but he…

Stelter Demands Moderators 'Fact-Check' Trump, Labels Fox 'Propaganda'

Brian Stelter, host of CNN’s hilariously-named media show Reliable Sources, spent half of his time slot on Sunday spitting out liberal talking points about the upcoming Presidential debate. The CNN host was particularly concerned that Chris Wallace, the first debate’s moderator, might have been 'tainted' by working for CNN competitor Fox News, which Stelter referred to as “more…

Media Ethicists Suddenly Appalled at Close Reporter-Judge Friendship

It seems a little convenient that NPR and The Washington Post only felt it necessary to discuss the media ethics of Nina Totenberg’s close friendship with Ruth Bader Ginsburg after she died. “Reporter’s closeness to Ginsburg raises questions” was the Wednesday Post headline.

Go Figure: CNN Obsesses Over Few Masks, No Distancing at ACB Event

CNN had a horrid Saturday. First, President Trump nominated a strong, conservative, faith-based jurist in Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. Then, they couldn’t figure out how to react to the pick. If that wasn’t enough, one CNN liveshot was derailed by a fact-based group of Trump supporters calling the network fake news. Therefore, it wasn’t entirely surprising one massive narrative they…

DESPERATE CNN Invokes Merrick Garland, Bemoans Dems Elevating ACB

After Judge Amy Coney Barrett was announced Saturday as President Trump’s third Supreme Court pick, CNN started throwing things at the wall to see what stuck.

NBC Warns ‘Committed Conservative’ Barrett ‘Instantly Controversial'

On Saturday evening, shortly after President Trump nominated Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, NBC Nightly News let the ideological labels fly as the nominee was repeatedly identified as a “conservative” who was popular with the “religious right” and “instantly controversial.” By contrast, the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was never given any left-wing political label…

‘CNN Is Fake News!’; Crowd Crashes CNN Liveshot Outside Supreme Court

For those living under a rock, Saturday was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day for CNN and the rest of the liberal media as President Trump nominated distinguished Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.
