Al-Qaeda

On Thursday, the Biden administration released a ‘high-value’ Al Qaeda terrorist and former courier from Guantánamo Bay after being held for two decades for his role in numerous terrorist plots including a bombing in Indonesia. All three networks ignored this latest instance of the Biden administration putting the world in danger by releasing dangerous terrorists during each of their morning…

As he did on Monday (and numerous times before that), National Security Council spokesman John Kirby helmed much of Tuesday’s White House press briefing to assist the inept Karine Jean-Pierre, but there were was still some tough exchanges and softballs. Of course, Fox’s Peter Doocy was in the middle of it as he battled Kirby over the inevitability of Afghanistan returning to its place as a…

Amid the welcome news that a recent U.S. drone strike had eliminated al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today provided welcome pushback Tuesday to the Biden administration’s attempted victory lap by pressing National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan on the fact that last August’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan allowed Zawahiri to…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough sees, in the killing of Zawahiri, a silver lining to Pres. Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. "it was the United States leaving Afghanistan that had the head of al Qaeda comfortable sitting in an apartment in Afghanistan where we could find him and take him out."

On Thursday night's episode of MSNBC's All In, host Chris Hayes spent the opening segment of his show trying to downplay the threat Al-Qaeda posed to the United States and the world in an attempt to make the case that the threat to the global order is made by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Hayes also suggested that former President Donald Trump is a threat to democracy just like…

President Biden stuck to form Tuesday by refusing to take questions after his speech on the end of the war in Afghanistan, so they fell to Press Secretary Jen Psaki and she found a cadre of reporters who were loaded with queries on topics such as Biden’s “angry” tone, Biden checking his watch during Sunday’s dignified transfer or remains, blaming Americans for not getting out in time, and…

NBC didn’t pull any punches Monday when it came to slamming the Biden administration following the announcement that the final U.S. plane had left Afghanistan, officially ending the war. Over the course of Special Report and NBC Nightly News, foreign correspondent Richard Engel and fellow NBC liberals gave a remarkable amount of historical context, criticism of the Biden…

MSNBC continues to prop up the Biden administration by airing rants filled with sick rhetoric and fueled by emotion, including suggesting that the Republican Party is now a “bigger threat to our democracy than organizations like Al-Qaeda or ISIS.”

MSNBC continues to allow extreme, vile rhetoric to fill the airwaves. On Wednesday’s Deadline: White House, regular guest Paul Rieckhoff ranted about January 6th and wildly argues that domestic right-wing extremism, not Al-Qaeda or ISIS, is the greatest threat to national security, even wailing that “Osama Bin Laden never took over the Capitol.”

Unsurprisingly, MSNBC has continued to allow hosts and pundits to throw vile, unfounded attacks at Republicans. On Thursday's ReidOut, fill-in host Jason Johnson, Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA), and Miles Taylor (aka Anonymous) discussed the alleged greatest threat to democracy: Donald Trump and the Republican Party. Taylor even went as far as to make the outrageous claim that the…

Biggest risk to the United States: Isis? Al Qaeda? Russia? China? Nope. It's—you guessed it—Donald Trump . . . if you believe MSNBC. On Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC show this afternoon, ex-FBI agent-turned-liberal-commentator Clint Watts claimed: "The biggest risk to the country isn’t actually from outside the country. It’s not even necessarily from inside the country, but from the last person that…

Criticizing it as based on "calendars, not conditions," Richard Haass, in his ever-polite fashion, has ripped President Biden's decision to withdraw all US troops from Afghanistan by the 20th anniversary of 9/11. On today's Morning Joe, Haass, the show's foreign policy maven and president of the Council on Foreign Relations, predicted the "near certainty" of a "human rights tragedy." He also…

Thanks to MSNBC host Joy Reid and former Obama intel officials John Brennan and Clint Watts, Tuesday’s The ReidOut took a trip aboard the crazy train, making no distinction between Republicans writ large and those that stormed the Capitol on January 6 and insisted the threat from right-wingers resorting to terror was worse than al-Qaeda.
