<p>The Trump White House has officially launched a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/mediabias/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">media-bias page</a> on its website — and judging by the hysteria from the legacy press, the Trump Administration hit a nerve. <em>Breitbart</em> <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/the-media/2025/11/29/white-house-launches-website-exposing-media-bias" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports</a> 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.</p>
<p>It’s exciting to see a Republican administration go on offense rather than shrink back.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/12/the-white-house-teenagers-and-media-bias/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>If the national media can be counted on to spin anything dramatically toward the Democrats, it&#8217;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?</p>
<p>Even before the shutdown occurred, NPR and PBS issued their poll warning Republicans would get more of the blame than Democrats. That&#8217;s why those partisan hacks deserved defunding.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/10/shutdown-spin-how-the-media-always-blames-republicans/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Once the shock of <strong>Charlie Kirk</strong>&#8216;s murder began to wear off, it became easier to notice how today&#8217;s &#8220;news&#8221; media routinely fail to live up to their own pompous prattle about their work. They don&#8217;t &#8220;hold people accountable,&#8221; they don&#8217;t &#8220;uphold democracy,&#8221; and they aren&#8217;t &#8220;independent&#8221; or &#8220;objective.&#8221; They don&#8217;t produce &#8220;news&#8221; as much as narrative.</p>
<p>You can see this in their energetic declarations that you couldn&#8217;t possibly ascribe a leftist motive to Kirk&#8217;s shooter &#8230; and even claimed you shouldn&#8217;t try.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/09/the-medias-double-standard-on-political-violence/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p data-start="239" data-end="513">Chicago endured another bloody Labor Day weekend: eight people killed and 58 shot, including two teenagers. President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> responded by declaring, “Enough is enough… we’re going in,” signaling his willingness to send federal help to restore order in the city.</p>
<p data-start="515" data-end="733">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.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/09/trump-miller-blast-pritzker-as-chicago-violence-spirals/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>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.</p>
<p>One of those theories is coming true before our eyes with the release of newly unclassified documents by Director of National Intelligence <strong>Tulsi Gabbard</strong>.</p>
<p>These documents reveal a secret plot by the Obama administration to falsely frame President Trump as colluding with Russia to fix the 2016 election.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/07/daring-to-call-out-obama-officials-treasonous-conspiracy/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>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.</p>
<p><strong>Kilmar Abrego Garcia</strong>, 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.</p>
<p>The Democratic Party and the media, in lockstep, have made this the case of the century.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/04/selective-due-process-concerns-exposes-medias-hypocrisy/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>I guess United Nations Secretary-General <strong>Antonio Guterres</strong> didn&#8217;t think his hyping global warming risks brought him enough attention, so now he says, &#8220;The era of global <i>boiling</i> has arrived!&#8221;</p>
<p>Global boiling?</p>
<p>Give me a break.</p>
<p>Yes, the climate is warming.</p>
<p>We can deal with that.</p>
<p>What annoys me is politicians, activists and media pushing hysterical myths.</p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Myth 1: The Arctic will soon be ice-free.</strong></span></p>

<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>

<p>Last week, what remains of the United Methodist Church voted to reject the authority of God&#8217;s Word on matters of human sexuality and publicly affirm and embrace sin as a tenet of their denomination.</p>
<p>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<strong>, it was completely expected.</strong></p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Peter Heck</em></p>
<p>The over-politicization of our culture has ruined so much. Among plenty of other things, our language has been one of the greatest casualties of our 24-hour &#8220;news&#8221; culture, our obsession over ideological purity and political scandal. Words don&#8217;t mean what they used to mean anymore.</p>
<p>People who aren&#8217;t bigots are called bigots because it&#8217;s easier to call names than make arguments.</p>
<p>Things that aren&#8217;t racism are deemed racist because shaming is easier than logically engaging.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/03/a-media-obsessed-with-screaming-christian-nationalism-is-a-far-greater-than-any-threat-posed-by-christian-nationalism/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>Anything can happen in 2024.</p>
<p>But right now, as the new year dawns, former President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> holds an insurmountable lead for the GOP presidential nomination, barring an unforeseen circumstance.</p>
<p>The former president also holds a slim but steady lead in polls over President Biden, notably in several battleground states.</p>
<p>Even a conviction on one or more of the many bogus charges filed in four different courts by Democratic prosecutors and being heard by Democratic judges would not derail him.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/01/high-stakes-in-2024-election-are-cause-for-anxiety/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Barely a week after the horrific October 7th Hamas terror attacks on Israel, we noticed CNN&#8217;s coverage starting to turn foul. We then noticed it on the PBS News Hour as well. Their coverage drifted away from the <a href="https://www.faithwire.com/2023/10/13/horror-stories-journalist-stands-by-coverage-of-hamas-massacring-babies-reveals-another-heartbreaking-claim/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abhorrent murders, rapes and kidnappings</a> committed by Islamic jihadists, to a more sympathetic tone for the people of Palestine and the terrorists that they unequivocally support. ABC, CBS, and NBC &#8220;news&#8221; programs quickly followed suit.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/10/left-wing-media-push-hamas-propaganda/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>No one in the media elites today is alarmed at a revolving door between the &#8220;objective media&#8221; and partisan politics. Politics seems more like a qualification than a disqualification.</p>
<p>NBC News announced on air that legal correspondent <strong>Laura Jarrett</strong> was going to be a co-host of their Saturday &#8220;Today&#8221; news program. She&#8217;s the daughter of <strong>Valerie Jarrett</strong>, the closest White House aide to <strong>Barack</strong> and <strong>Michelle Obama</strong>, and who is now a senior adviser to the Obama Foundation.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/08/the-biden-revolving-door-into-the-media-spins-heavily/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Everyone paying attention to the latest revelations about Hunter Biden and his energetically supportive father knows that journalists and Republican officials have opened a vein, or &#8220;the walls are closing in.&#8221; Even so, the leftist media are trying to report as little of this damaging scandal material as they possibly can.</p>
<p>We can scarcely imagine the anxious political chatter <i>inside </i>pro-Biden newsrooms, but let&#8217;s imagine it sounds something like <strong>Jen Psaki</strong>&#8216;s MSNBC show.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/07/are-walls-closing-in-on-the-bidens/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Polls show that voters are not thrilled at the prospect of a Trump vs. Biden rerun in the 2024 presidential election. That makes the idea of a fresh third-party candidate more interesting. One might think the media would enjoy a curveball, but there&#8217;s one big problem: Democrats think a third-party ticket would sink President <strong>Joe Biden</strong>.</p>

<p><strong>M.

<p>“The central defect of the evil,” he said, “is not the sin but the refusal to acknowledge it.” &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2022/01/liberals-are-lying-to-you-while-turning-america-upside-down/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Rachel Maddow is one of America&#8217;s most popular proponents of socialism. Government is never big enough for Maddow. <strong>Bernie Sanders</strong> has a friend in Maddow. But when the subject is abortion, you will not find a more enthusiastic libertarian.</p>
<p>After the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on Nov. 30 on Mississippi&#8217;s law banning the termination of unborn children after 15 weeks, Maddow championed lawyer <strong>Julie Rikelman</strong> for the Center for Reproductive Rights for arguing this is &#8220;about American women being forced by the government to give birth against their will.&#8221;&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/12/rachel-maddow-libertarian-on-one-issue/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>It&#8217;s the biggest political hoax since <strong>Titus Oate</strong>s&#8217;s allegations of a &#8220;Popish Plot&#8221; to assassinate King Charles II in 1678. Oates&#8217;s charge of a Jesuit conspiracy swept through London and led to the execution of four innocent men before Oates was proved a fraud.</p>
<p>The full consequences of the great political hoax of our time — the charge that former President <strong>Donald J. Trump</strong> was colluding with Russia — are not yet fully apparent.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/09/hillary-clinton-should-apologize-for-the-biggest-political-hoax-since-titus-oates/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>A day doesn’t pass without more striking evidence that our ruling elites are not only evil but unhinged.</p>
<p>Take Yale Law School’s, <strong>Ian Ayres</strong>. In <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/09/15/until-im-told-otherwise-i-prefer-call-you-they/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a column</a> for Thursday’s <em>Washington Post</em>, Mr. Ayres announced that he would initially address all students as “they” this school year instead of using singular pronouns. This is “less likely to cause offense than using harmful stereotypes to guess at someone’s pronouns,” he explained.</p>
<p>By “harmful stereotypes,” he means common-sense clues to gender, such as body type, clothing, voice, makeup, hair, and so on.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/09/resisting-the-ruling-elites-insanity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Riddle me this: Why would Republicans fall for the Democrats&#8217; age-old ploy of pressuring them into working on &#8220;bipartisan&#8221; legislation that will only advance the Democratic agenda and damage the nation?</p>
<p>Indeed, what&#8217;s the point in the GOP puffing up its chest about ousting <strong>Liz Cheney</strong> from her U.S. House leadership position if they&#8217;re just going to turn around and behave like never-Trumpers by caving on <strong>Joe Biden</strong>&#8216;s agenda? Why would they play footsy with the most militantly leftist party in American history?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/05/gop-seek-not-phony-bipartisanship-save-the-nation/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>This past month, America’s Progressives showed they will do anything to elect <strong>Joe Biden</strong> and <strong>Kamala Harris</strong>. This includes having social media, along with “legacy” media, spike articles by America’s fourth largest newspaper, <em>The New York Post</em>.</p>
<p>But that’s not all. These Marxists are even vowing revenge on Trump supporters if they get back the reins of power.</p>
<p>“When this nightmare is over, we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission,” tweeted <strong>Robert Reich</strong>, former Labor Department secretary under <strong>Bill Clinton</strong> and adviser to <strong>Barack Obama</strong>.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/10/the-relentless-revolution/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Though some deny it, many harbor a strong hostility toward Christians in our society, especially those who obediently wear their faith on their sleeves.</p>
<p>You know what they find worse than an outspoken evangelical Christian? An outspoken evangelical Christian who&#8217;s also an outspoken supporter of President <strong>Donald Trump</strong>. Talk about a perfect storm of contemptibility!</p>
<p><strong>Mike Lindell</strong>, owner of MyPillow, and the Rev. <strong>Franklin Graham</strong> fall squarely into this category.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/04/americans-goodness-outweighs-pockets-of-anti-christian-bigotry/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Our media elites arrogantly lecture about our democracy being undermined by robotic propaganda, but do they ever listen to themselves talk about the Democrats? Somehow, they think their robotic propaganda is just the &#8220;truth.&#8221; The press came to witness the Senate impeachment trial, and U.S. Representative <strong>Adam Schiff</strong> (D-CA) had them at hello.</p>
<p>No member of Congress has been more dramatically partisan in this war on the Trump presidency than Schiff. &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/01/adam-schiffs-avalanche-of-accolades/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Perhaps Mayor <strong>Pete Buttigieg</strong> would have a better shot at appealing to Christian voters if he would not go to such extreme lengths to contort Scripture to rationalize his party&#8217;s abominable stance on abortion.</p>
<p>The Democratic presidential candidate openly expresses his Christian faith and was the first candidate to hire a national faith outreach director. He believes political conservatism is less compatible with Christianity than political liberalism.</p>
<p>Buttigieg says the GOP likes &#8220;to cloak itself in their language of religion&#8221; and accuses Republicans of hypocrisy for their alleged callousness about family separations at the border.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/09/buttigieg-distorts-logic-and-scripture-on-abortion/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>It is insidious to watch the left do its dirty work of demonization. It starts with a narrative constructed on false accusations and misleading innuendos.

<p>In Wednesday evening’s Democratic presidential debate circus, the left’s favorite darlings turned on one another with a selfish vengeance, which was a positive development for the country and mildly entertaining. The glorious infighting continued among progressive commentators.</p>
<p>This acrimony, coupled with the public exposure of the left’s crazy ideas, surely diminished the party’s image among sane voters. The more leftists reveal their inanity and extremism, the better for President Trump and the nation.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/08/democrats-in-showing-their-extremism-do-nation-a-favor/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>One reason many Americans don&#8217;t trust those &#8220;fact-checker&#8221; websites is because to know them is to see right through their incessantly liberal worldview. These impartial arbiters of truth routinely defend Democrats as being &#8220;Mostly True&#8221; on everything while savaging Republicans as just the opposite. It&#8217;s not just <strong>Donald Trump</strong>, mind you. It&#8217;s <strong>Ted Cruz</strong>. And <strong>Rick Santorum</strong>. And <strong>Newt Gingrich</strong>. And pretty much anyone who challenges liberal orthodoxy.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/07/fact-checkers-find-democrats-are-truth-tellers/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Michael Barone</em></p>
<p>Is it true that Donald Trump&#8217;s bad habits are contagious? Is it true that his Democratic opponents and, even more, his critics in the press are increasingly given to terminological inexactitudes, if not downright lies?</p>
<p>Sure looks like it. Last week, large parts of the press — we&#8217;re looking at you, CNN and MSNBC — were gleefully reporting and commenting on the BuzzFeed story about President Trump having allegedly ordered his former personal lawyer <strong>Michael Cohen</strong> to lie to members of special prosecutor Robert Mueller&#8217;s staff.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/01/does-the-media-deserve-to-be-respected-and-believed/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>This is not our first partial government shutdown. Somehow, someway, from 1976 through 2017, the nation has survived 18 shutdowns, the longest lasting 21 days. In this case, President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> insists that the next budget deal contain $5 billion to construct a wall on part of our southern border with Mexico.</p>
<p>Trump, say the Democrats, is &#8220;unwilling to compromise.&#8221; But when he asks for only $5 billion for a project with a U.S.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/01/government-shutdown-money-money-everywhere-but-not-a-drop-for-a-wall/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by L. Brent Bozell III</em></p>
<p>President Trump has been in office for almost two years, which should mean that by now, all the crazy talk in the media about his impending dictatorship ought to be abandoned. Democracy is still vibrant, as we saw with record voter turnout in November. But the wild conspiracy theories about Trump never stop. Some of them qualify as the worst media quotes of the year.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t go looking for &#8220;fact-checkers&#8221; to evaluate how much evidence the cable &#8220;news&#8221; folks have mustered.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/12/the-media-was-still-unglued-in-2018/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Meaning no disrespect to climate alarmists of the past half-century, who have been quite formidable in their doomsday warnings, the modern era has ushered in a new wave of scaremongers who threaten to eclipse their predecessors.</p>
<p>This shouldn’t discourage the original enviro-wackos of the 1970s, who hadn’t accumulated sufficient empirical data to support their burgeoning secular religion.

<div class="article_body">
<p>CNN, famous for fake news, focuses their 24-7 news cycle on anything damaging to President <strong>Trump</strong>, even if they have to provoke it or make it up. Their low <a href="http://dailycaller.com/2018/06/26/cnn-food-network-ratings/">television ratings</a> reflect the lack of public interest in their incessant Trump bashing. In late June, “In primetime, CNN lost to HGTV, Investigation Discovery, the History Channel, the Discovery Channel, and the Food Network.”</p>
<p>When CNN is not Trump bashing, they are virtue signaling to fellow leftists.</p></div>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/cnn-takes-the-bait-on-diversity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

<p>It&#8217;s quite simple: Some political relatives are more equal than others.</p>
<p>Agenda-driven journalists love to exploit familial dysfunction when a prominent politician is conservative and his or her kinfolk espouse liberal views. When a vengeful offspring, sibling, cousin or distant relation wants to wreak havoc, instant fame and adoration are just a tweet or call away. The media schadenfreude over such bloody bloodline battles is thicker than California wildfire smoke.</p>
<p>By contrast, relatives who openly challenge powerful Democrats are dismissed as gadflies and publicity hounds.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/the-theory-of-political-relative-relativity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The anti-Trump media are comparing President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> to <strong>Joseph Stalin</strong> because the president fires back at his critics.</p>
<p>An allusion to the wisdom of philosophers residing in the joint applies to media whiners: &#8220;if you can&#8217;t do the time, don&#8217;t do the slime.&#8221;</p>
<p>The president&#8217;s daily dose of name-calling by media includes the following: he&#8217;s Hitler, Stalin, racist, Mussolini, Mao, Pol Pot, racist, Nero, racist, mentally deranged, tyrant, racist, unfit, fascist, racist, dictator, hateful, racist, liar, illegitimate, colluder of all things Russian, schmuck, jackass, warmonger, and racist, and that&#8217;s just MSNBC.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/08/trump-and-the-media-war/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><em>Written by Don Irvine</em></p>
<p>The terrorist attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando on June 12 has sparked the usual knee-jerk reactions from politicians and the liberal media for more gun control legislation, in the mistaken belief that such laws might have prevented the attack as well as future attacks.</p>
<p>One of the biggest lies with regard to the Orlando attack is the type of weapon that was used. The media are pushing the narrative that <strong>Omar Mateen</strong> had an assault weapon—originally identified as an AR-15 before being correctly identified as a Sig Sauer MCX—and that it is a “military” weapon.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2016/06/larry-pratt-schools-msnbc-on-guns/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p><strong>Chris Matthews</strong>, bravely admitting that he once knew the answer to this question, sought the answer from Debbie.</p>
<p>“What is the difference between a Democrat and a Socialist?&#8221; Matthews asked.  Wasserman Schultz was at a loss (<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2015/07/30/chris_matthews_to_debbie_wasserman_schultz_whats_the_difference_between_a_democrat_and_a_socialist.html">video</a></span>):</p>

<p><em>Written by Michael Medved</em></p>
<p style="color: #000000;">A big majority of Americans say Israel is justified in its response to Hamas, but a CNN/ORC poll shows revealing ideological differences in attitudes toward the Middle East.</p>
<p style="color: #000000;">Among Republicans, 73% stand with Israel, and among Independents that support remains strong at 56%. But among Democrats, only a minority – 45% – feels the Jewish state is justified in its military response in Gaza to stop rocket attacks and terror tunnels.</p>
<p style="color: #000000;">This attitude indicates that liberals have not only lost touch with public opinion but they&#8217;ve disconnected from reality.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2014/08/gaza-liberals-and-moral-equivalence/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
