White House briefings in the Biden years are often sleepy meetings compared to the Jim Acosta shriek-fests we remember under Trump. President Joe Biden pledged he would be so much nicer to the press corps. He promised to “bring transparency and truth back to the government.” But the press is much nicer to him than the other way around.
Biden provides far less access than Trump did. He avoids press conferences and one-on-one interviews like the plague.… Continue Reading

Last Tuesday, a remarkable thing happened.
Under a split screen of photos of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, a message appeared during a Fox News story about Mr. Trump’s arraignment over documents found in the FBI’s raid on his Florida home. In all caps, it said:
“WANNABE DICTATOR SPEAKS AT THE WHITE HOUSE AFTER HAVING HIS POLITICAL RIVAL ARRESTED.”
Well, yes. What sounds like The Babylon Bee is exactly what’s happened.… Continue Reading

PBS isn’t for the “public.” It’s taxpayer-funded content for Democrats.
Last September, when President Joe Biden gave a nasty speech in front of a blood-red backdrop at Independence Hall, proclaiming, “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our Republic,” PBS streamed this harsh rhetoric live with no “explanatory” text on screen for charges the Republicans are authoritarians.
But on June 13, when Trump spoke in New Jersey after being arraigned in Florida, the PBS livestream felt inexorably compelled to insert opinions on screen.… Continue Reading

As CNN looks for a new leader, former CNN host Brian Stelter proposed this as the most important question: “What should an anchor do when a guest says something untrue?”
The public could turn this question around: “What should a politician do when a CNN host says something untrue?” The Stelters of this world cannot imagine anyone at CNN would ever say anything false. They arrogantly presume they always defend the “truth.”… Continue Reading

Home-schoolers consistently outscore government school students in every academic area. It’s no wonder that the public school establishment hates and fears home schooling.
The clearest evidence yet came in this past Thursday’s Washington Post. “THE REVOLT OF CHRISTIAN HOME-SCHOOLERS” (all caps in original) is a voluminous, front-page article almost entirely about one Loudoun County, Virginia, couple who had home-schooled their children before opting to enroll them in public schools.… Continue Reading

Here’s a brief quiz. What do all these events have in common?
Special counsel John Durham’s long-awaited report leaves no doubt that Hillary Clinton’s campaign facilitated the Russian collusion hoax “to vilify Donald Trump” during and after the 2016 presidential election cycle. The corrupt FBI leadership validated the scheme, which led to the first Trump impeachment. Democratic U.S. Representative Adam Schiff of California lied over and over to keep the hoax going.… Continue Reading

About a third of the country is moving toward restoring sanity while another third seems hellbent on getting nuttier. The final third might charitably be described as “neutral.”
On the sane side, Wyoming recently became the 19th state to reserve women’s sports for women.
Thirteen sane states have enacted laws barring doctors from plying children with puberty-blocking drugs, cross-sex hormones and mutilating surgery. More states will be added as people wake up and realize they need to do something about this trans madness.… Continue Reading

As with ProPublica’s recent smear of Clarence Thomas, there’s a lot of excitement across the left-wing Twittersphere over a Politico hit on Neil Gorsuch. But even as a transparent piece of partisan propaganda, it is poorly conceived.
Politico kicks off the piece, “Law firm head bought Gorsuch-owned property,” with a purposefully deceptive claim: “For nearly two years beginning in 2015, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch sought a buyer for a 40-acre tract of property he co-owned in rural Granby, Colo.”… Continue Reading

National Public Radio left Twitter in a hilarious huff. In a statement, CEO John Lansing announced, “We are not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermining our credibility and the public’s understanding of our editorial independence.”
This contains multiple layers of comedy. For starters, NPR is a platform that has demonstrated an incredibly aggressive interest in undermining the credibility of Fox News Channel and the public’s understanding of how it balances out NPR’s relentless liberal bias and censorship.… Continue Reading

I’m not ashamed to admit that I didn’t know Whoopi Goldberg was even back on the daytime gab fest The View. Last I had heard, she was sidelined after making foolish and racially buffoonish comments about the Holocaust. But apparently that was like a year ago. Time flies when you’re doing anything but watching The View, I guess.
Anyway, it’s nice to see that she’s been back making a fool of herself over other topics she knows nothing about as well.… Continue Reading
