Foreign Policy

Washington Post associate editor and PBS News Hour talking head Jonathan Capehart was triggered on Friday when the American Enterprise Institute’s Danielle Pletka argued that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’s record on Russia isn’t the greatest. While he found Pletka’s arguments to be “incredibly insulting,” he never actually debunked them.

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel reacted to Donald Trump warning Iran that he would “blow it to smithereens” if it harmed him or any other presidential candidate by claiming Trump cannot actually do that because he withdrew from the nuclear deal as president.

Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart is not a military or foreign policy genius, but he does play on TV. After 11 months of rocket fire from Hezbollah that has seen 60,000 Israelis become refugees in their own country, Israel has started to hit Hezbollah hard in recent days, leading Stewart to ask, “What did Lebanon do?” on Monday’s edition of The Daily Show.

When Donald Trump sat down with the National Association of Black Journalists on July 31, the tone was combative and those interviewing him insisted on doing live fact-checking. On Tuesday, it was Kamala Harris’s turn for a much softer interview that saw the on-the-spot fact-checking go away despite multiple factually incorrect statements and be replaced with questions about how the GOP has "…

Monday’s White House press briefing led off with national security spokesman and frequent Karine Jean-Pierre crutch John Kirby defending the Biden-Harris administration’s deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan in light of a House Foreign Affairs Committee report, arguing they’ve done plenty of soul-searching, but feel proud of what happened and want to move on. Thankfully, a few reporters had some…

Boston Globe columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr and New York Times counterpart David Brooks agreed on Friday’s PBS News Hour that Donald Trump’s recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery was “really one of the lowest political moments” they could recall.

My organization, CURE, Center for Urban Renewal and Education, organized a delegation of 20 prominent pastors to travel to Israel to host a press conference on Oct. 7 as a show of support for and solidarity with Israelis on the one-year anniversary of the horrendous, savage terrorist attack that took place. A few days ago, we were notified by Delta Airlines that our flight was canceled.

Retired Gen. H.R. McMaster is out with a new book detailing his time as former President Donald Trump’s national security advisor, and while the book is not by any means an ode to Trump, it is also not the typical anti-Trump book that MSNBC’s Morning Joe has become accustomed to. On Tuesday’s show, the assembled cast admitted after their interview with McMaster that this “surprised"…

Monday marked three years since the deadly Islamic terror attack in Kabul, Afghanistan at Hamid Karzai International Airport that murdered 13 American soldiers, 170 Afghans, and left over 150 people wounded. Instead of even briefly acknowledging this painful day for American families in what became the symbol of the Biden-Harris’s administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, ABC, CBS, and NBC…

On CNN This Morning, the panel lavishes praise on Kamala Harris DNC speech. The apex of absurdity came when former Obama aide Elliot Williams said of Harris' comments on foreign policy, "That's Margaret Thatcher, dude."

We’ve been told, over and over and over again, that Kamala Harris is the candidate of “joy.” Tim Walz, upon accepting his vice presidential nomination, thanked her for “bringing back the joy.” Rolling Stone gushed that Harris’ “new politics of joy is the best way to fight fascism.” The New York Times headlined, “Harris used to worry about laughing. Now joy is fueling her…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert’s interview with former Speaker Nancy Pelosi was derailed late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning on night two of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago by anti-Israel hecklers. The Late Show host struggled as he sought to control the unruly behavior, but also tried to appease them by noting Pelosi’s answers were “unsatisfying to some people” as he…

It was textbook case of contrasts during Monday’s White House press briefing as, on the one hand, one of The Washington Post’s lead Kamala Harris bootlickers called for the federal government — the Biden-Harris regime — to directly interfere in the 2024 election and censor Donald Trump and X’s Elon Musk and a softball from USA Today about Biden being wistful ahead of the…

Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart had nothing but effusive praise for President Joe Biden on Friday’s PBS News Hour as he marveled at the prisoner swap with Russia being, “not bad for an 82-year-old man everyone said had cognitive decline and were questioning his mental acuity.”
