Jimmy Carter

Remember when The New York Times attempted to spin the 1970s stagflation crisis in order to protect former President Jimmy Carter’s political image before the 1980 elections? MRC Business does.

As with many things, propaganda can be used for good or for ill, depending on who dispenses it. During World War II, American propaganda was considered a necessary tool in the pursuit of victory in a moral cause. Germany and Japan had their own propaganda machines to advance an evil agenda. The Nazi propaganda effort was headed by Joseph Goebbels to whom the term “The Big Lie,” meaning if one…

Fox Business host Stuart Varney predicted stagflation and an economic disaster of the highest magnitude in decades on Tuesday's Varney & Co.

On CBS's Sunday Morning, John Dickerson filmed a news segment for the show to discuss Biden's first year in office and how he has done. While filming a segment like this you would expect experts from both sides of the aisle to be interviewed, unfortunately, it appears that never crossed Dickerson's mind. 

On Morning Joe, liberal Ed Luce of the Financial Times discusses his current column, in which he sees similarities between the presidencies of Jimmy Carter and that of Joe Biden. Luce twice describes a current sense of "drift."

On New Day, Democrat Bakari Sellers, a CNN political commentator, speaks of "the malaise that we’re in now with the resurgence of the virus, inflation, et cetera." In doing so, Sellers echoed Kamala Harris, who over the weekend said America was at a "level of malaise."

On Friday, NBC’s Today show echoed the infamous words of former President Jimmy Carter as it told Americans to “turn down the thermostat” in order to deal with wildly inflated fuel costs this winter.

Washington -- How could a comic figure from the world of politics such as President Joe Biden suddenly become such a tragic figure on the American scene? One minute he is bringing all civilized observers to laughter by telling Katie Couric that former President Franklin Roosevelt dealt with the 1929 stock market crash by getting "on television" and reassuring his fellow Americans as only FDR…

The media’s attempted rehabilitation of Jimmy Carter never ends. Early on Thursday, Associated Press posted this article by Bill Barrow: “Jimmy Carter, trounced in 1980, gets fresh look from history.” In reality, Carter’s just getting another outburst of boosterism from liberals. Carter is now 96 and confined to home, but AP sounds like they're trying to cheer him up. 

Fox & Friends Weekend co-host Pete Hegseth had one piece of advice to give former President Donald Trump for his upcoming rallies: Hammer President Joe Biden’s disastrous handling of the economy.

Déjà vu? That’s exactly what CNBC Squawk Box co-anchor Joe Kernen said he was experiencing when it came to the nightmarish 1970s stagflation and the current state of the U.S. economy under President Joe Biden.

Evangelical Christians, who once were content with staying out of earthly concerns, have grown into an influential subset of American politics. Not all who identify with this label vote in unison. They voted in large numbers in 1976 for Jimmy Carter, but reversed course in 1980 and went for Ronald Reagan. In subsequent elections, a majority has voted for Republican candidates.

Liberal stars may produce movies in Los Angeles, but they often don’t film movies in California. And there’s a reason: It’s’ incredibly expensive. So they often go to red states because of their more sensible tax policies. However, these same celebs now want help “turning Texas blue.”
