The panel on Monday's edition of CNN This Morning discusses "Abundance," the new book by liberal commentators Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson. The pair propose that liberals adopt a more relaxed approach to government regulation, which will in turn promote abundance for all. The panel is generally dubious. Host Audie Cornish points out that the energy in the Dem party is in the thousands turning…

The 36 million who watched President Donald Trump’s address to Congress also watched as Congressional Black Caucus member, Rep. Al Green, shook his cane and shouted at the president. When he refused to desist, Speaker Mike Johnson ordered him removed from the chamber. Two days later, in a bipartisan vote, the House censured Green.

In a spurt of schadenfreude, Joe Scarborough gloats over perceived Republican woes. He plays an extended clip of a Republican congressman getting booed and jeered at a town hall in ultra-liberal Asheville, North Carolina, revels over the stock market having another bad day, and reports on Putin saying "no" to a ceasefire proposal.

ABC World News Tonight opened their newscast by stoking recession fears among their viewership. This, just one day after being the only network evening newscast not to report on the Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key indicator for inflation, coming in below expectations.

On CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish plays a clip of an Iowa soybean farmer calling tariffs a "pissing match." The p-word is muted but it is clear what he said. A bit later, when a panelist begins a factual description of the effects of tariffs, Cornish eventually cuts him off, saying: "the farmer gave us a very, like, people understand what tariffs are now. Yeah. Right?"

There are many noticeable differences between the first and second Trump administrations, but some things remain constant throughout. Then and now, the major network newscasts are reluctant to report any good economic news to emerge from the Trump administration, in this case: the Consumer Price Index coming in lower than expected.

After telling the American people not to worry about the economy during the 2024 presidential election out of political convenience, the liberal ladies of ABC’s The View had suddenly found reason to fret as they pushed the notion that President Trump was bringing about a recession. They betrayed their motivations with a conversation about how media narratives play a role in…

The blowhards at MSNBC’s Morning Joe should realize that continuing to shoot lies through their whitened tooth implants on the air about Elon Musk doesn’t make them any more true. What’s worse is that they don’t even attempt to be clever about it.

Democrat strategist James Carville advises his party to simply wait for President Donald Trump to fail: “I’m telling the Democrats, just sit there, play possum. Let them go, let them go, let them go. Poll numbers have declined, and the collapse is already underway. ... Just let the ball come to you. We don’t need to be aggressive now.”

On Tuesday’s installment of the White House press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt praised the changes owner Jeff Bezos is making at The Washington Post, gave the “new media” seat to Saagar Enjeti of Breaking Points, and faced tough questions from across the spectrum on the economy from Fox News, CNN, Politico, and even the Associated Press.

Having seemingly run out of things killed by DOGE to report on, it appears that the CBS Evening News have expanded this favorite doom genre of news reporting. This new subgenre deals with the adverse reactions to tariffs across society, with tonight’s focus on…wedding dresses.

From watching the White House wrapup that aired on ABC World News Tonight, reasonable individuals can arrive at the conclusion that ABC is attempting to incite violence or some other adverse action against Tesla/SpaceX founder Elon Musk. An inflammatory intro from anchor David Muir led to an even more inflammatory report from former Chief Biden White House apple polisher Mary Bruce.…

In her debut appearance on CNN This Morning, hosted by Audie Cornish, former George W. Bush official Ashley Davis says the stock market's recent dive is "around [Trump's] neck." An unfortunate metaphor in regard to someone who has suffered two recent assassination attempts.

It must have taken a hefty amount of acid dropping for the detached journos at The New York Times to psych themselves into believing the abject falsehood that President Joe Biden’s economy was just a booming spectacle of awesome.
