Barely an hour after announcing an unprecedented ban of CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House, President Trump tangled with the press pool Friday afternoon – which coincidentally did not include any of those three outlets – about the move during a Q&A following a health care event.

Lies, damned lies and statistics. Associated Press’s Seth Borenstein was sure true to that aphorism when it tried to be cute with data to erroneously make it seem like August 2026 was the hottest month ever.

When it comes to President Donald Trump, the Associated Press can twist anything into a lose-lose situation. In a September 5 piece, AP White House reporter Josh Boak performed said mental gymnastics to distort the news that the economy added 162,000 jobs in August and smashed expectations.

On August 10, Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey signed a bill allowing abortion at any point in pregnancy. Abortion advocates call it “closing the gaps” in “abortion rights protections.” Abortion foes call it “abortion until birth,” making it legal to dismember fully formed babies. The “mainstream” media called it nothing. You couldn’t find that story on ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, or NPR.

Associated Press fact-checker Melissa Goldin came running to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s defense on Tuesday after conservative media personalities and Republican politicians accused him of hypocrisy for requiring a “library-card-esque” ID to shop at his government-run grocery stores, but opposing it when it comes to voting. However, Goldin’s insistence that such claims are "…

Apple News and Google News promoted mostly left-leaning outlets that used strong language like "crisis" for Spain’s border surge, but downplayed similar issues under Biden in the US, calling it a “challenge” or “surge.” This reveals partisan bias and calls out inconsistent media coverage of illegal immigration.

An AP story reports that drastic USAID funding cuts in Nepal forced former HIV outreach workers, mostly transgender, into sex work to survive. The piece, criticized for its dramatic tone and focus on U.S. policy under Trump, sparked outrage and disbelief online for its premise and portrayal of the aid situation.

A recent Associated Press article entitled “U.S. Mint produces a $1 coin bearing Trump’s face to help celebrate America’s 250th birthday” is lacking important context and information, like many similar columns in various outlets.

President Trump has reacted to the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America by sounding the alarm about communism, which greatly upset Associated Press fact-checker Melissa Goldin on Thursday because, according to her, only card-carrying members of the Communist Party USA can be called communists.

America’s 250th anniversary should be a time for unity, for Americans to take pride in the country’s culture and accomplishments made possible by our constitutional freedoms. But Google News and the elitist media have tried to turn what should have been a triumphant national milestone into yet another opportunity to get jabs at President Donald Trump. 

The sheer spectacle of so-called fact-checkers bending over backwards to rationalize the nutty temper tantrums of the globe’s most infamous eco-possessed spoiled brat Greta Thunberg is a permanent case study in how the media’s self-appointed truth gatekeepers are nothing but sniveling propaganda whores laundering the deranged shrieks of a leftist cult.

In a ruling released on Monday, two weeks after oral argument, Florida’s First District Court of Appeal affirmed a ruling from Florida’s 14th Judicial Circuit that threw out a defamation case brought against the Associated Press by Navy Veteran Zachary Young. The ruling means the case will not proceed.

For all the media bluster that Elon Musk’s hostile takeover of Twitter could ultimately nuke his net worth, the goalposts have since been moved and those same media talking heads are having a meltdown over the fact that the world’s richest man just proved all of them wrong.

A highly anticipated ruling by the Florida Supreme Court late last week all but ensured the defamation suit filed by Navy veteran Zachary Young against the Associated Press would get revived on appeal. And just days after telling Florida’s First District Court of Appeal to ignore the AP’s own stylebook in the case, the newswire’s lawyer wanted the court to ignore the Supreme Court’s ruling as…
