2016 Presidential

This week, Special Counsel John Durham released a 316-page report detailing the origins of Operation Crossfire Hurricane -- the FBI’s investigation into supposed connections between the Trump campaign and the Russian government. The report is an astounding expose of corruption and collusion -- not between Trump and Russia, but between the Hillary Clinton campaign, friendlies at the FBI and top…

In much the same way he did hours earlier on Monday’s NBC Nightly News, NBC Justice correspondent Ken Dilanian — who should be known as CIA Ken for his fealty to the agency — surfaced on Tuesday’s Today to further spin for his real bosses in the intelligence community on Special Counsel John Durham’s report on the Trump-Russia probe.

Trump-Russia probe Special Counsel John Durham’s report dropped late Monday afternoon and, with only one criminal conviction (via a plea agreement), the liberal media were ebullient in celebrating the lack of mass indictments some billed as a foregone conclusion. It was nonetheless damaging as it found “neither U.S. law enforcement nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any…

MSNBC Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough reacted to Special Counsel John Durham’s report that was fiercely critical of the FBI and the Trump-Russia probe by dismissing it as a waste of taxpayer money and that the main takeaway of the report is how bad Durham and Republicans look.

One can trace former President Donald Trump’s indictment by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg back to the media/Democrat belief that Trump’s 2016 election was illegitimate. Sure, some, like Hillary Clinton, questioned former President Barack Obama’s birthplace. And, after the 2000 Bush v. Gore Supreme Court decision, some, for a time, groused and called George W. Bush “president select…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough said that he spoke with many Democrats after the indictment of Donald Trump on Tuesday, and "every Democrat was disappointed" by the indictment that DA Alvin Bragg had put together. Scarborough then switched to a long riff about how Trump could and should be threatened with jail for contempt of court in light of his statements about Bragg, the judge in the case…

On Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC show, Andrew Weissmann, the "pitbull" anti-Trump lead prosecutor in the Mueller investigation, admits he doesn't really understand the theory by which Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg bumped up to felonies the misdemeanors with which he charged Donald Trump. But Nicolle Wallace is so thrilled by the indictment that she bursts into hysterical laughter. 

Sunday’s edition of CBS’s 60 Minutes sounded the alarm on China’s rapid naval expansion and included premier PLAN expert Toshi Yoshihara warning that China is outbuilding several Western nations combined and Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Mike Gilday declaring his top priority is cutting down the Navy’s excessive maintenance delays that limit the Navy’s ability to keep up. The…

On Monday's Good Morning America, co-host George Stephanopoulos grilled Trump lawyer Joseph Tacopina about the Manhattan District Attorney apparently pressing forward with an indictment for a $135,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016 to squash a National Enquirer story about her alleged affair with Trump.

Eight years ago, the New York Times’s Michael Schmidt broke the news that Hillary Clinton ignored government rules and used a personal server for e-mail during her time in office. Friendly journalists spent the next week furiously attempting to spin her scandalous conduct away, ultimately deriding reporters who provided tough coverage as Hillary “haters.”

CNN This Morning was surprisingly skeptical over the prospect of the Manhattan DA indicting Donald Trump in connection with a hush-money payment made to Stormy Daniels. Only CNN's John Avlon argued for the indictment, saying it's a question of equal justice under law, and a payoff that could have swung the presidential election. 

At what was supposed to be an apolitical International Women's Day event moderated by Mika Brzezinski, Gloria Steinem says, "I just want to point out to you, at this moment in time, how different the history of my country and the world would have been had we had Hillary Clinton  -- instead of Trump!

Ten years ago this week, CBS’s 60 Minutes eagerly assisted in producing what could be regarded as the first infomercial of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.

On Morning Joe, Scarborough suggests that DeSantis is akin to Jeb in 2015: someone loved by the donor class, but who can't stand up to Trump. Scarborough predicts that DeSantis will decide not to run in '24, will finish his gubernatorial term with sky-high approval ratings, then run in 2026 when he doesn't have to worry about facing Trump.
