Whoa! Matthews Warns 2020 Dems of Embracing Far-Left Proposals
MSNBC’s Hardball host Chris Matthews closed Tuesday’s program by reminding viewers that, while he’s a cartoonish rich, white liberal, he’s still more of Democrat from yesteryear given his career on the Hill and in the White House as opposed to a rabid socialist.

Not Journalism: Blitzer Plays Rhetoric Footsie with Dem Pal Schiff
As my colleague Bill D’Agostino outlined last month, CNN’s The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer is not so much a home for news, analysis, and substantive interviews as it is a green room for Democratic members of Congress. Tuesday’s show provided another illustration of that sad reality as arguably the most senior and prestigious CNN anchor allowed House Democrats Adam Schiff (CA) then Jerry…
If Not an Emergency, What Is It?
The flood tide of illegal immigrants crossing our southern border cannot and must not continue. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has said of it, “The system is broken and overwhelmed.

Amazon Sitcom: US ‘A White Nationalist Ethno-State' Run by 'Dictator'
Culture
Watching Amazon Prime’s British comedy series Catastrophe is like being at Thanksgiving dinner hoping to make it through the whole meal without any political arguments from your left-leaning relatives.

CBS News Reports Favorable Results of Its Own Poll, Ignores the Rest
Financing your own poll apparently means never having to say you’re sorry for the results -- especially when that TV channel’s news division simply chooses to ignore whatever findings go against the network’s bias. That was apparently the case late last week, when anchors for CBS News focused on the result that 77 percent of those polled think the entire Mueller report should be released to the…

Scarborough Again Goes After AG Barr, Likening Him To Roy Cohn
MSNBC's Morning Joe isn't taking the news that Attorney General William Barr's summary of the Mueller Report cleared President Trump of collusion and the evidence on obstruction of justice was not sufficient to recommend indictment well.
