On Thursday's The Weeknight, MSNBC co-host Michael Steele voiced agreement with the wild theory of Congresswoman Madeleine Dean (D-PA) that President Donald Trump plans to take over other cities with federal agents to facilitate canceling future elections.

One week after mocking DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine for getting assaulted during an attempted carjacking in Washington, D.C., HBO’s Bill Maher claimed to discover the real reason for President Trump’s use of the National Guard in the city: to prevent Democrats from taking office should they win the next election. This time, however, Manhattan Institute senior fellow Chris Rufo was…

In their efforts to smear President Donald Trump’s recent deployment of federal law enforcement to the Nation’s Capital, legacy media and liberal politicians have been promoting myths about the severity of crime in D.C. and the city’s need for help to keep its citizens safe.

When is a non-lethal car accident a national news item -- and a car crash that killed three is not? When an illegal alien killed three. ABC, CBS, and NBC wouldn't touch the story of an illegal alien (with a commercial driver's license from California) who drove a truck so badly it killed three people during a bumbled U-turn in Florida. We discuss this and other wokeness topics with Bill D'…

Washington Post metro reporter Sophia Solano published a story online Thursday morning (and likely to air in Friday’s paper) fawning over the far-left weirdo who chucked a Subway sandwich at law enforcement officials on August 10 in downtown Washington, declaring him “a resistance icon” and “symbol” of the city’s “resistance” to President Trump’s push to bring down crime.

Lawrence O’Donnell often tries to wax poetic on his MSNBC show, The Last Word, but he’s really just an unserious person speaking in a solemn tone. On Wednesday, O’Donnell tried to claim that Union Station in Washington, D.C. doesn’t have a crime problem and cited a movie released in 1939 and a man who hasn’t been a senator since January 2009 to make his point.

Former CNN host Jim Acosta simply can’t quit the melodramatic ramblings that made him famous. On his Monday Substack podcast, Acosta claimed that Washington, D.C. now lives under occupation, and its residents are showing “bravery and courage” in resisting.

President Trump's temporary takeover of law enforcement in DC caused an outburst of media protest, that somehow crime was at a "historic low" -- if you use bogus numbers. Plus to celebrate the 20th anniversary of NewsBusters, we remember some of the most outrageous examples of network nonsense with Geoffrey Dickens.

Tuesday night on his show On Balance, NewsNation host Leland Vittert lambasted progressives and their media allies dismissing concerns about crime in Washington D.C. by invoking President Trump’s role in the events of January 6, 2021 as a way to shutdown debate, calling it a “playbook” hell bent on “hijack[ing]” debate to “something four years ago that has absolutely nothing to do…

Following CNN’s The Arena host Kasie Hunt’s tough interview Tuesday with D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb (D) about his role (or lack thereof) in addressing crime in the nation’s capital, her panel did nothing to defend hin. Rather, they doubled down on the city continuing to have issues with crime and even admitted part of it nationwide has stemmed from police officer shortages…

New York Times chief White House correspondent Peter Baker joined Wednesday’s Chris Jansing Reports and unleashed, even by MSNBC’s standards, one of the most ridiculous reductio ad Putinum claims ever uttered on the network as he claimed the Russian dictator would “feel very comfortable” in Donald Trump’s America.

When President Trump called a press conference on August 11 to discuss how he would use emergency powers to federalize the D.C. police and deploy the National Guard, the knee-jerk anti-Trump media launched into January 6 talk.

While much of the liberal media coverage about President Trump’s federalizing of Washington D.C.’s police and deployment of the National Guard has been negative and dismissive of crime in the capital, CNN’s Kasie Hunt provided a welcome respite Tuesday as she spent nearly 11 minutes on The Arena thoroughly grilling D.C. Attorney General Brian Schwalb (D) over the city’s soft-on-crime…

NBC’s Seth Meyers hyped on Monday’s Late Night some highly suspect fact-checking from CNN during President Trump’s press conference when he announced he is federalizing Washington, DC’s law enforcement because, for Meyers, the binary choice is between Trump and CNN’s “stat nerds.”
