The Trump White House has officially launched a media-bias page on its website — and judging by the hysteria from the legacy press, the Trump Administration hit a nerve. Breitbart reports that the new page highlights falsehoods, distortions, and slanted coverage from the usual suspects. And the reaction from those “objective journalists” tells you everything you need to know.
It’s exciting to see a Republican administration go on offense rather than shrink back.… Continue Reading

If the national media can be counted on to spin anything dramatically toward the Democrats, it’s a government shutdown. They feel passionately that the Democrats are the Party of Government, and the Republicans are the Haters of Government, so who naturally favors shutting it all down?
Even before the shutdown occurred, NPR and PBS issued their poll warning Republicans would get more of the blame than Democrats. That’s why those partisan hacks deserved defunding.… Continue Reading

Comments Off on Shutdown Spin: How the Media Always Blames Republicans
Written by Tim Graham
Once the shock of Charlie Kirk‘s murder began to wear off, it became easier to notice how today’s “news” media routinely fail to live up to their own pompous prattle about their work. They don’t “hold people accountable,” they don’t “uphold democracy,” and they aren’t “independent” or “objective.” They don’t produce “news” as much as narrative.
You can see this in their energetic declarations that you couldn’t possibly ascribe a leftist motive to Kirk’s shooter … and even claimed you shouldn’t try.… Continue Reading

Chicago endured another bloody Labor Day weekend: eight people killed and 58 shot, including two teenagers. President Donald J. Trump responded by declaring, “Enough is enough… we’re going in,” signaling his willingness to send federal help to restore order in the city.
Trump contrasted Chicago’s spiraling violence with Washington, D.C., which he claimed is now a “safe zone” after federal intervention. “You can walk right down the middle of the street… you’re safe,” he told reporters.… Continue Reading

A conspiracy theory is something “that explains an event or set of circumstances as the result of a secret plot by usually powerful conspirators,” according to Merriam-Webster.
One of those theories is coming true before our eyes with the release of newly unclassified documents by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.
These documents reveal a secret plot by the Obama administration to falsely frame President Trump as colluding with Russia to fix the 2016 election.… Continue Reading

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

I guess United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres didn’t think his hyping global warming risks brought him enough attention, so now he says, “The era of global boiling has arrived!”
Global boiling?
Give me a break.
Yes, the climate is warming.
We can deal with that.
What annoys me is politicians, activists and media pushing hysterical myths.
Myth 1: The Arctic will soon be ice-free.
It “could already be ice-free by the summer of 2030!”… Continue Reading

MSNBC claims it was “unaware” that Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign had donated $500,000 to Al Sharpton’s activist organization just weeks before Sharpton interviewed Harris on the network.
MSNBC isn’t saying what it plans to do about this supposedly shocking revelation, but one employee claims it is raising eyebrows among his co-workers, who consider it a “bridge too far” even for notoriously lax MSNBC.

On November 12, the Washington Free Beacon reported that the Harris campaign had contributed $250,000 to Sharpton’s National Action Network on September 5, and again on October 1.… Continue Reading

The numbers speak for themselves. MSNBC is suffering through a ratings catastrophe as the disillusioned loyalists, who kept believing the network’s stable of left-wing hosts who continued to promise that Trump was an unelectable Hitler, have walked away.

Last week, what remains of the United Methodist Church voted to reject the authority of God’s Word on matters of human sexuality and publicly affirm and embrace sin as a tenet of their denomination.
There was nothing particularly surprising about the move. In fact, after having chased all of the God-honoring, Christ-worshipping, Bible-submitting believers out of their group, it was completely expected.
Not the Bee reported on their convention/rainbow circus HERE several days ago when it happened.… Continue Reading
