Immigration

A new ICE report released on Friday revealed a whopping 6.2 million migrants have been released from federal custody, but ABC’s Good Morning America on Saturday acted as if the true hardship was the few thousand migrants recently bused to New York City, twice conveying the Democratic spin that Texas Governor Greg Abbott was guilty of “cruel and inhumane politics.”

In its segment on President Biden sending some of his highest-ranking officials to meet with their Mexican counterparts in Mexico City today to discuss the crisis at the southern border, CNN This Morning fails to mention that Kamala Harris, whom Biden appointed as his "point person" on the southern border, is not a part of the US delegation. 

There has been some network news reporting of the massive incoming migrant caravan, inasmuch as it is timed to coincide with the visit of Secretaries of State and Homeland Security Antony Blinken and Alejandro Mayorkas to Mexico, where they are scheduled to meet with government officials (and perhaps with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, AKA AMLO) on how to deal with the ongoing…

In a CNN This Morning segment trying to understand why Donald Trump's fiery rhetoric doesn't seem to be hurting him with Republican primary voters, two panelists expressed a similar view: that the GOP voters don't hear Trump the way the press, and others outside their realm, do. The voters want a fighter, and see him as one. 

Two days before Christmas, NBC’s Today decided that it was the perfect time to host Joe Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, for some holiday softballs so she could do a little damage control on behalf of her boss.

With Tuesday and Thursday serving as the final White House press briefings of 2023, we had everything from questions at the border — which was a focus of the year’s first briefing — to more pro-Hamas idiocy. Starting with Thursday, the best exchange came when the Fox Business Network’s Hillary Vaughn battled the National Security Council’s John Kirby over the latest flare-up in the seemingly…

You just know that things are bad when the network evening newscasts have to actually make the time to report on the ongoing explosion at the southern border. Tonight, all three networks reported on the record detentions this week. None, however, reported on the White House's tie-in to the awful prisoner swap with the Maduro dictatorship in Venezuela.

Broadcast networks are still angry about a bill signed into law Tuesday by Texas Governor Greg Abbott, which empowers state and local law enforcement to arrest and deport illegal aliens.

The network evening newscasts were unsure whether to hail, cover neutrally, or condemn the latest U.S. prisoner swap with an authoritarian regime. In this case, the exchange with Venezuela’s Maduro dictatorial regime, which returned his notorious bagman, Alex Saab, in exchange for fugitive “Fat Leonard” and 10 additional hostages.

The Daily Caller posted audio of Sen. J.D. Vance (R.-Ohio) lecturing a reporter on Capitol Hill about the blatant bias in how they cover Trump, Biden, and the border crisis. "You guys seem far more upset about the guy who criticized the problem than you did about Joe Biden, who’s causing the problem.”

One of the most egregious form of business-interest bias in Spanish-language media occurs when it is deemed necessary to conceal the immigration status of the suspect of a heinous crime. Such is the case with Telemundo blatantly omitting that the recently-arrested killer of a 16-year-old Texas cheerleader was in the country illegally.

Once you understand that the core business model of Spanish-language TV depends on a steady inflow of immigrants, legal or otherwise, you understand everything else about how these networks cover the news. Hence, Estrella TV’s freakout that President Joe Biden might secure the border in exchange for some more Ukraine cash.

California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom desperately wants to run for president -- now rather than later. After all, Newsom, for reasons I discuss in my new book, “As Goes California,” beat back a recall attempt. Polls show most Democrats want a candidate other than President Joe Biden, whose poll numbers remain in the tank. Over 60% of Americans consider the country on the wrong track. Biden’s…

For the liberal media, any excuse is good to allow more immigrants to pour into the US. The MSM, and their Dem allies, see every immigrant across the southern border as a potential voter for them. And so it was that on today's Morning Joe, the panel jumped on anecdotal evidence of small retail stores and restaurants being unable to open because of a lack of workers to . . . you guessed it,…
