CBS’s Stephen Colbert reacted to President Joe Biden’s decision to end his re-election bid on Monday’s edition of The Late Show by gushing over his supposedly “great” presidency, retiring “Joe Biden is old" jokes, and doing a happy dance because he has hope again.

President Joe Biden makes no speech without mentioning the importance of democracy in our nation. We would like to believe this comes from deep ideals about human liberty lodged within our president.

The fact that Google’s Gemini A.I. program didn’t have the best of rollouts as it generated a vast assortment of historically incorrect images should be a gold mine of material for the late night comedians.

Washington -- One of the unsung prophets of Aukus last week was the great British historian Andrew Roberts, who soon will be recognized throughout the English-speaking world as the man who has attempted to retrieve the reputation of King George III from the sneers of ... well, of people like me. His biography of George III will come out in early November, and of course, I have not had a chance…

Washington -- How did the weekend that commemorated the 20th anniversary of 9/11 -- America's Pearl Harbor for the 21st century -- go for you? There were huge American flags draping the skyscrapers of northern Virginia. The streets below, however, were relatively deserted. Across the river, there was a more traditional scene.

Inside Politics host John King and CNN chief political correspondent Dana Bash reacted to President Biden's new vaccine mandate on Friday by praising him for going after Republican governors who allegedly are anti-science.

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…

Thursday night’s ReidOut was plenty crazy with dangerous and venomous rhetoric, but the MSNBC show went up a notch when host Joy Reid fawned over President Biden as not only akin to George Washington for his widespread coronavirus vaccine mandates, but she also said he showed leadership on par with Ulysses S.
