Nets Unbothered By Americans STILL in Afghanistan, Inaccurate Numbers
On Tuesday, the State Department released new figures on how many Americans were still trapped in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan and how many more Americans and lawful citizens were rescued post-U.S. withdrawal than originally disclosed to the American people. But that evening, it was a subject that was of no interest to the liberal broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) who combined for over…

Despondent CBS Wonders Why People Won’t Praise Biden, Dems Agenda
Wednesday’s CBS Mornings dove into what they saw as one of the mysteries of this current political era: Why won’t voters be more supportive of President Biden and his fellow Democrats, seeing as how they do so much to make our lives better? Prior to a segment that suggested Thanksgiving gatherings have appetizers and drinks in the garage while people take Covid rapid tests, the table…

Story 'Not Over': Nets Ignored Americans Finally Leaving Afghanistan
On Monday evening, the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) showed just how much they were done covering possibly the biggest blunder of Joe Biden’s presidency so far: abandoning Americans in an Afghanistan controlled by the Taliban. And Fox News Channel correspondent Trey Yingst put it best when he declared “This story is not over” while reporting on how some Americans were finally able to…

Editor’s Pick: Hot Air on ‘Disgrace’ of Media Ignoring Afghanistan
On Monday, Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey called out the leftist media for the “silent disgrace” of refusing to cover how Americans are still left behind in Afghanistan following the Biden administration’s disastrous withdrawal from the war-torn nation in August. It’s been hard to find any recent headlines about the foreign policy catastrophe, let alone personal stories about those abandoned by the…

Good News for Joe Biden?
More Americans have died from COVID-19 during the Biden administration than during the Trump administration. That is not the good news for President Joe Biden. Former President Donald Trump initiated Operation Warp Speed. We had Democrats casting aspersions on the efficacy of a would-be and supposedly rushed vaccine. We finally got the vaccine at the end of the Trump administration. The moment…

Explaining Biden's Bad Polling, CNN Ignores His Afghan Fiasco
If there's one thing Democrats would like voters to forget, it's Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Thirteen US military members killed. Untold numbers Americans left behind. The country quickly seized by the Taliban. CNN did its part to advance Afghanistan amnesia this morning. In a New Day segment on Biden's bad poll numbers with poll maven Harry Enten, the Afghan elephant in…

'It's Messed Up': CBS Sitcom Tackles Fall of Kabul
Nearly two months ago, the world watched with shock and horror as the most botched military withdrawal in U.S. history took place. Much of network television has since moved on, including CBS news. But CBS's unique sitcom United States of Al tackled the Afghanistan debacle head-on this week.

King Whines About Afghanistan ‘Monday Morning Quarterbacking’
During an interview with retired General Stanley McChrystal on Tuesday’s CBS Mornings, co-host and Democratic Party donor Gayle King rushed to protect President Biden from criticism of his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan by dismissing the legitimate questioning as “Monday morning quarterbacking.” She fretted that people weren’t being “fair” to the woefully incompetent…

Cowardly CNN Afraid to Say Biden Lied About Afghanistan Withdrawal
The same media who wasn’t shy in accusing President Trump of “lying” at every chance they got, is very reluctant to employ these same blunt words about President Biden. The president’s military advisors testified before Congress yesterday and contradicted his words to ABC journalist George Stephanopoulos in August, saying he had support from the military to withdraw from Afghanistan the way he…

What a Shame: Psaki Suffers Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki found herself as a modern reincarnation of the boy Alexander from the famous children’s book as she faced a torrent of tough questions from reporter after reporter on Afghanistan, the border, and spending. And with little in the way of answers to defend President Biden and his administration’s failures, shortcomings, and spin, the questions…

CensorTrack With TR: Big Tech BLOCKS Ads on Life Saving Measures
It’s Week Four of MRC’s newest video series, CensorTrack with TR. This week, we talked about how much Big Tech likes blocking advertisements and promotions for groups, people and content that they don't support --- conservative content.

Biden Clears NBC’s Low Bar at UN: ‘Normal,’ ‘Standard,’ 'Good'
Joe Biden hit the low standards that NBC has for the President on Tuesday, politely praising his speech to the United Nations as “normal,” “standard” and “good.” They were clearly doing their best to offer the standard liberal media talking points expected for a Democratic President. However, Richard Engel and Andrea Mitchell also offered some concern and doubt in the wake of the Afghanistan…

Contrast: Doocy SLAMS Psaki as Others Rush to Back Illegal Immigrants
It was a tale of two approaches during Monday’s White House press briefing as Fox’s Peter Doocy and select reporters (including even CNN’s Jeremy Diamond) chose to challenge Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Afghanistan, illegal immigration, travel bans, and U.S.–France relations while CNN analyst April Ryan led another group in standing up for Haitian illegal immigrants and spreading fake news…

MSNBC's Stengel: Drone Fiasco Shows 'Rightness' of Biden Afghan Policy
