ABC’s Good Morning America co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos held back-to-back exclusive interviews Wednesday with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) for reaction to President Trump’s Tuesday night address to a joint session of Congress. To the shock of likely no one, Stephanopoulos badgered Johnson while barely…

Needless to say, ABC, CBS, and NBC offered far different reactions Tuesday night to President Trump’s address to Congress (think State of the Union, but not granted that title in a president’s first year) than they did in immediately celebrating last year’s partisan State of the Union from Joe Biden. For 2025, they were more lackadaisical in their disdain for Trump’s “intensely partisan” “…

CBS chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett showed off his dismay with the second Trump administration on Tuesday’s CBS Mornings by painting it in apocalyptic terms as “revolutionary” in nearly every sense of the word and “not collegial” and “unremittingly hostile to the established, stable order” that’s kept America and the world safe and secure. Some doomcasting and fear porn…

On Sunday, CBS Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan presented new Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent with a CBS News poll that they used to insist Americans already think President Trump is failing them on the economy. Bessent was sworn in on January 28. When Bessent challenged the pro-Biden/Harris media spin, Brennan got defensive and ended up a little embarrassed. 

Ah, old habits die hard. Politico apparently learned nothing after being exposed for being a government-funded lefty propaganda mill and is already trying to pin energy inflation on President Donald Trump.

President Donald Trump has entered his second term with a bold agenda and unprecedentedly rapid action. In the first month of his presidency, he signed 73 executive orders; he unleashed his Department of Government Efficiency, spearheaded by Elon Musk, to identify waste, fraud and abuse across executive branch agencies; he deployed his foreign policy team to the Middle East to broker an…

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos announced a dramatic ideological shift for his newspaper’s opinion section toward free markets, and staff are predictably having a nervous breakdown over it.

Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary — aka “Mr. Wonderful” — took a blowtorch to CNN and other lefties experiencing a mental collapse over emails from Elon Musk’s DOGE to federal workers asking them to give an account of their work progress.

The New York Times acted like getting former IRS commissioners to bellyache over President Donald Trump’s cuts to one of the most hated agencies in Washington was some kind of a flex.

What a joke. The same outlet that tried to paint America’s inflation situation before the 2024 election as Yankee Doodle Dandy! is doing the backstroke now that Donald Trump is president.

Politico either advertently or inadvertently just exposed the Democrats’ grotesque hypocrisy in trying to yoke President Donald Trump to the inflation-plagued economy that his predecessor's insane spending policies created. 

The media didn’t even wait for the first quarter of President Donald Trump’s second term to blame him for GDP events that transpired before he was even elected to office.

CNN, to no one’s surprise, tried to play Gotcha! by claiming President Donald Trump was “bucking” his campaign promise to cut prices immediately upon taking office, and ended up making the network look more idiotic than it already does. That is a feat unto itself.

If PBS wants to combat accusations that the tax-funded news network is a haven for smug elitist politics (PBS, where even the conservatives are liberal!), Thursday night’s segment featuring former New York Times columnist and (once) respected economist Paul Krugman wasn’t the way to go about it. Krugman really leaned into his natural unlikability in the remote interview with PBS’s…
