The so-called fact-checkers are energetic defenders of President Joe Biden — almost like they’re his siblings or his nephews. No cockeyed critique of Biden is silly enough for them to forgo the urgent need to “check.” They’re perpetually poised to pounce!
PolitiFact gave us two examples on Feb. 10. Both were “Pants On Fire” warnings, but only one was about pants. The headline was “Joe Biden put his pants on backwards,” and their headline continued: “We know all about pants.… Continue Reading

Written by Brent Bozell III
Our media elites arrogantly lecture about our democracy being undermined by robotic propaganda, but do they ever listen to themselves talk about the Democrats?
