Joe Biden

Twenty-four hours after having a meltdown over President Joe Biden not selling his "economic wins" during his State of the Union address, Stephanie Ruhle on Wednesday challenged Biden Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg over what the administration will do to lower skyrocketing gas prices. 

With gas prices continuing to rise amid the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, NBC Nightly News committed a random act of journalism by calling out the reality that the Biden administration’s energy policies are doing nothing to give consumers some economic relief at the gas pump. Meanwhile, ABC’s World News Tonight failed to mention how ineffective the administration’s energy policies are,…

MSNBC’s Morning Joe decided on Wednesday to engage in comically dumb wishcasting about President Biden’s State of the Union address, insisting Tuesday’s speech was “brilliant,” “rallying,” a “return to normalcy” and “very unifying” as it showcased “the expanse of his personality in full blossom” and why Biden was made for this moment amid Russia’s war.

Nick Fondacaro and Kevin Tober joined me to discuss the live coverage of Biden's State of the Union address. CNN's Van Jones gushed "Uncle Joe is back," but other pundits like Chuck Todd felt the speech didn't hit right, and it won't "age well."

While MSNBC was decrying President Biden for not mentioning January 6 in his State of the Union address Tuesday night, CBS’s post-speech coverage featured something of a debate over whether or not Biden should have or needed to mention the Capitol Riot at all. CBS congressional correspondent Scott McFarland was the first journalist on the program to mention the lack of January 6 talk and…

During a Wednesday interview with Kentucky GOP Rep. James Comer on MSNBC, White House correspondents Kristen Welker and Peter Alexander sounded more like White House press secretaries as they battled Comer on everything from COVID messaging to inflation to President Biden’s economic record.

The CNN "Facts First" fact-checkers evaluated 12 claims from President Biden's State of the Union address but only found one of those that they would describe outright as "false." It looked like an A for effort. They only looked at three claims from the Republican rebuttal from Iowa Gov. Kim Richards, and tagged one as false -- that "the Department of Justice treats parents like domestic…

Appearing on NBC’s Today show Wednesday morning, Ukrainian parliament member Oleksandra Ustinova slammed President Biden’s State of the Union address as “a total disappointment” in the midst of her country being “executed” by Russian forces. In addition to pleading for a NATO-enforced no-fly zone over Ukraine, Ustinova also demanded “real sanctions” against Russia and Putin.

Bloomberg News just put out a spin piece on the economy that would make professional propagandists blush.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin tore into President Joe Biden for projecting major weakness in his foreign policy by placing “harsher sanctions” on American energy than on Russian energy amidst the war in Ukraine.

On Wednesday morning’s MSNBC Reports, Washington correspondent Yamiche Alcindor pushed the view of leftist Democrats who were unhappy that President Biden did not use his State of the Union address to tie Ukraine’s fight for national survival to the fight for democracy here at home.

If you’re an independent, moderate or a Republican, don’t go looking to Stephen Colbert for comedy. The Late Show host on Tuesday night showed, yet again, that he’s mostly speaking to his Democratic base. If you were expecting jokes on high gas prices, there weren’t any. If you were expecting a mocking of Biden for skyrocketing inflation, there was one lame mention that amounted to six seconds…

Reacting Wednesday to President Biden’s State of the Union address from the night prior, the broadcast network mornings newscasts on ABC, CBS, and NBC largely decided to play White House stenographers in touting Biden’s “call[s] for unity” and focus “on common ground and not...partisanship.” It resulted, one network said, in cheers that were akin to American unity after 9/11.

During interviews with Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday, both CBS Mornings and ABC’s Good Morning America questioned the Democrat from the left while discussing President Biden’s State of the Union address. CBS’s Gayle King worried about whether “voting rights” legislation was still a top priority for the administration while ABC’s George Stephanopoulos hoped Biden could save his…
