Psychological Projection Playbook: How Elites Blame You For What They Do

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

A phrase often attributed to Saul Alinsky, author of “Rules for Radicals,” or to Joseph Goebbels, Adolf Hitler’s Nazi minister of propaganda, is “Accuse your opponent of what you are doing, to create confusion and to inculcate voters against evidence of your own guilt.” Although attribution for this quote may be spurious, it continues to resonate with millions for a reason.

Psychological projection is part of our common human experience.… Continue Reading

Americans Are Getting Wise to the Left’s Chicanery

Written by Robert Knight

The only good thing to come out of COVID-19 is the public’s awakening to the fact that government officials will lie to us and the media will help them do it.

We might have suspected it, but it had never been so blatantly obvious, at least not since the Vietnam War or the vanishing weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

If they lied to us six ways from Sunday about a pandemic and reasons to invade other countries, it’s a sure bet they have been lying to us about many other things.… Continue Reading

Democrats and Journalists Still Avoid Biden’s Decline

Written by Tim Graham

The first excerpts of the Jake Tapper-Alex Thompson book on denying former President Joe Biden’s obvious mental decline have been posted, and you can already sense Democrats don’t want to deal with what they have done.

The book’s title is “Original Sin.” Why the biblical title? The authors write:

“The original sin of Election 2024 was Biden’s decision to run for re-election — followed by aggressive efforts to hide his cognitive diminishment.”

Left-Wing Couric and Anti-MAGA Kinzinger

Written by Peter Heck

Apparently Katie Couric, the left-wing activist and former Today Show host still has an online program where she conducts interviews and produces progressive news content. Who knew?

Demonstrating her illustrious flare for originality and creativity, the topic of Couric’s most recent episode was how awful Donald Trump is for America. Drawing from a deep well of self-proclaimed conservative Republicans who decided the best way to conserve conservatism and fight for conservative values was to raise money for Democrats and help them gain power, Couric brought on former U.S.… Continue Reading

Selective Due Process Concerns Exposes Media’s Hypocrisy

Written by Robert Knight

For the past couple of weeks, aside from bashing President Trump over tariffs, the media have been fixated on an illegal immigrant deported to El Salvador.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who had been living in Maryland, is reputedly a member of the MS-13 gang, a U.S. government-designated foreign terrorist organization. He was summarily shipped off to his home country. Cue the outrage.

The Democratic Party and the media, in lockstep, have made this the case of the century.… Continue Reading

This Year’s Worst Easter Take Went to … Christianity Today?

Written by Peter Heck

I legitimately don’t understand. Christianity Today, the flagship evangelical publication founded by the late Billy Graham, declares its method is:

To deliver biblical wisdom and beautiful storytelling from the whole world to the whole world across all media.

That publication published THIS on Eater weekend:

Christianity Today had to be community-noted by Christians to correct a grievous biblical error.

Public Trust in Media Dies in ‘Groupthink’

Written by Tim Graham

Journalists are terrible at hiding their desire to run our democracy, using their platforms to direct history to the “right side.” That badly disguised lust for power creates an audience problem, where the people resent the media’s imperious lectures about which side they are supposed to favor — and if they don’t, they are uneducated, racist nincompoops.

Axios.com co-founders Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen appeared on the podcast “Honestly with Bari Weiss.”… Continue Reading

CBS News Reported the Truth on Flu Shots Decades Ago

Written by Trevor Thomas

I’m 55 years old. I’ve never taken a flu shot. I doubt I ever will. I don’t recall this CBS News report shown below, but it’s totally unsurprising.

Will The GOP Finally End PBS and NPR Subsidies?

Written by Robert Knight

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is in the news again.

Kermit the Frog, the iconic “Sesame Street” Muppet, will give the 2025 commencement address at the University of Maryland.

Kermit’s appearance will coincide with the 65th anniversary of the graduation of UM’s Jim Henson, who was awarded a degree in home economics in 1960. In a press release, “Kermit” said he would keep the address upbeat, even though, as he put it, “It’s hard to be green.”… Continue Reading

Network ‘News’ Bows Supinely to the Trans Commands

Written by Tim Graham

Trans woman activist Dylan Mulvaney did a happy-go-lucky softball interview tour to promote the book “Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer.” The “mainstream” media are out of the mainstream on trans issues, and their extreme fawning and flattery only underlines it.

On “CBS Mornings,” correspondent Natalie Morales sounded like a supporter:

“What do you want people to see and know about you?”

“I would ask them to please not make it harder for us,” Mulvaney said.… Continue Reading
