Protesting emeritus Prof. Marvin Dunn joined Thursday’s Jose Diaz-Balart Reports on MSNBC to discuss his opposition to Florida’s new history standards on slavery. During his rantings, Dunn argued that one of the experts who wrote the standards is an anti-Semite who once thanked God for slavery. There was just one problem: that woman opposes the standards and is an elected Democrat.

Florida Governor and 2024 GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis recently declared that “we’ve eliminated Critical Race Theory in our K through 12 schools.” It was a rather simple statement, but was true, but yet, PolitiFact's Samantha Putterman still rated it “mostly false” on Monday.

One of the most annoying ploys of liberal journalists is to advise Republicans that the truly wise path in politics is to surrender to liberals on everything, and the dumbest path is to oppose them emphatically.

Ya can’t make it up. 

Sunday’s lead New York Times story by Sharon LaFraniere, Patricia Mazzei, and Albert Sun, “The Steep Cost of Ron DeSantis’s Vaccine Turnabout,” was a retrospective hit piece for the 2024 presidential race, reaching back before current culture war controversies to focus on Florida’s Republican governor-presidential candidate and the alleged deadly medical malpractice he performed by…

Late Wednesday night saw people close to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defend the state’s new history guidelines on slavery by pointing out that the Advanced Placement course that the media demanded the state adopt has very similar standards. However, Thursday’s viewers of CNN News Central were not informed of these latest developments as host Jim Sciutto conducted a softball interview with Alpha…

PolitiFact waded into the controversy surrounding Florida’s new history standards by rating Vice President Kamala Harris “mostly true” for her statement that the state is teaching “enslaved people benefited from slavery.” To reach such a conclusion the trio of Sofia Bliss-Carrascosa, Louis Jacobson, and Amy Sherman had to tie themselves into a giant pretzel by simply downplaying evidence…

Nope, you're not seeing things or waking up from a fever dream. That’s not a typo in that headline. 

The pundit panel on Fox News Sunday took on the subject of Florida's new standards for teaching black history in public schools. Juan Williams took the Democratic hot takes to a new level, that Florida was teaching something like "Jews picked up some skills in concentration camps" and "engineers learned a lot" from 9/11. He folded that subject, redistricting in Alabama, and leftist opposition…

Washington Post contributor Gary Abernathy and associate editor Jonathan Capehart joined PBS NewsHour’s Geoff Bennett to recap the week that was by not only excluding any mention of the House hearing on IRS whistleblowers alleging improper interference in the Hunter Biden investigation, but finding consensus that Vice President Harris is correct to attack Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the…

Florida has come out with their new curriculum guidelines for African-American history and MSNBC’s Ana Cabrera invited Vanderbilt Prof. Michael Eric Dyson on to her Thursday show to talk about how they allegedly are comparable to teaching that there were good things about the Holocaust.

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin laid an ostrich-sized egg on Friday, relying on a badly flawed Business Insider hit piece on Florida losing population under Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Atlanta-based “culture and style” New York Times reporter Tariro Mzezewa made a Florida jaunt to gauge the effectiveness – or lack thereof – of the pretentious “travel advisories” issued by various left-wing interest groups in the name of protecting LGBTQ and black Americans after Gov. Ron DeSantis made a couple of moves that displeased the radical left, in “Florida Tourism Rolls On Despite…

I bet he’d still have his job if he wrote “xe/xer.”
