NewsBusters Podcast: Don't Say Joe Biden Lied About Pardoning His Kid!
After months of Biden and his press aides denying the president would pardon his son Hunter, when he went back on his word, the media didn’t want to say he “lied.” It was an “about face” or “a reversal from promises he made during the campaign.” They played up the “very close” family ties and proclaimed it a “poignant” moment. Managing editor Curtis Houck talks about what he found on CNN.
OUCH: CNN Conservatives Go Scorched Earth on Hunter Biden Pardon
On Monday, Scott Jennings, Shermichael Singleton, and Brad Todd — three of the four actual, bona fide conservative commentators on CNN’s payroll — took to the airwaves to react to President Joe Biden’s blanket pardon of son Hunter for any and all crimes committed in the last 10 years and, in addition to standing their ground, went postal on this “trash” “facade” created by a bunch of “liars…

Politico Upset Biden Pardon Will Hurt Opposition to Trump Appointments
Politico's head of news, Alexander Burns, is frustrated with Joe Biden's pardon of his son Hunter, not due to ethical concerns but because it complicates criticism of Donald Trump's controversial appointments. Burns argues that Biden's action undermines the justice system, giving leverage to Trump's allies. This pardon, according to Burns, is seen as a self-serving move that weakens opposition…
ABC Defends Joe Biden Pardoning ‘Only Living Son’ Hunter to Stop Trump
Unsurprisingly, ABC’s Good Morning America stood out among the broadcast networks on Monday as the most pro-Biden family in covering President Joe Biden’s blanket pardon of son Hunter, arguing the act to save “his only living son” was done to save him from a politicized Trump Justice Department and put to rest claims of Biden family “corruption” that were hurled “without evidence.”…

‘Great Gift, the Gift of Freedom’: The View Cheers Hunter Biden Pardon
Christmas came early over the weekend for the Cackling Coven of ABC’s The View. They got their wish that President Biden pardon his son for his tax and gun crimes.

NPR/NYT: 'Disillusioned' by Trump, 'Black Women Are Deciding to Rest'
Wokeness may be heading for a long winters’ nap, if recent New York Times and National Public Radio stories are to be believed, regarding how liberal black women are dealing with Donald Trump’s re-election (in summary: not well, especially if they work in the electorally and intellectually discredited field of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion -- DEI for short). The November…

Shameless Scarborough Buries Biden Pardon 52 Minutes Deep
The incontrovertible top story of the day is Joe Biden's pardoning of his son Hunter, and the president having repeatedly lied in promising not to do so. But Joe Scarborough doesn't describe the pardon as even one of the day's two top stories. Instead, he buries it 51 minutes into Morning Joe. And even when the show finally gets around to the subject, the gutless Scarborough doesn't express…

On MSNBC's The Weekend, in a discussion of the plan of DOGE leaders Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to downsize government, Rep. Chris Deluzio (D-Pa.) says: "For too long, Democrats were about finding some win-win framing. And you know what, sometimes there's a villain. Sometimes there's a bad guy.
