December 24th, 2019 11:54 AM
It's one of the oldest moves in the liberal media's playbook: trying to pass off liberal Democrat candidates as "moderates."

Media Suddenly Like John Bolton After He Criticizes Trump
December 23rd, 2019 3:17 PM
Liberal cable hosts have found an unlikely new cudgel with which to attack President Trump: former National Security Adviser John Bolton, who recently panned the President’s North Korea policy as having “failed.” TV journalists on Monday treated this critique from Bolton as lucid and credible — yet these same networks back in 2018 described Bolton as a “dangerous” advocate for “war with North…
