Shockingly, the Biden administration’s reliance on the Taliban to stop other terrorist attacks around the Kabul airport proved to be a failure on Thursday, as a pair of ISIS-K suicide bombers left 13 U.S. service members and at least 60 Afghans slaughtered. But despite this fact, the CBS Evening News tried to prop up President Biden in an attempt to make him appear tough on terror,…

After almost an entire week away on vacation (aside from an August 23 briefing), The Psaki Show hasn’t exactly gone swimmingly for the Biden administration and, like Monday and Tuesday, Wednesday was no exception as Press Secretary Jen Psaki had little in the way of friendly reporter questions as Fox’s Peter Doocy had the cavalry on his side in pressing on issues surrounding the collapse of…

Appearing almost four hours late in the White House Briefing Room, Press Secretary Jen Psaki faced more excellent questions Tuesday afternoon over the Biden administration’s handling of Afghanistan. As was the case on Monday, Fox’s Peter Doocy led the way with questions about vetting Afghan refugees, whether she’d take back her claim that people aren’t “stranded” in Afghanistan, and whether…

As the situation in Afghanistan becomes only more grim, the New York Times is properly condemning the Biden Administration’s lack of foresight and criticizing Biden’s false statements regarding the US evacuation. Saturday’s front page featured a “news analysis” from Peter Baker, which suggested Biden’s botching of the Afghanistan pullout might damage his electoral selling points. …

On Saturday's installment of Velshi, guest host Mehdi Hasan claimed that the 9/11 terrorist attacks produced a xenophobic War on Terror that is responsible for the political raise of Donald Trump. In order to make this inflammatory stretch, Hasan repeated several far-left claims that simply aren't true.

Amid the Biden administration’s catastrophic abandonment of Afghanistan to the Taliban, on Wednesday, NBC’s Today show profiled U.S. military veterans trying to make up for White House failures by taking it upon themselves to rescue Afhgan allies still trapped in the country. The brave soldiers talked about being racked by feelings of guilt in the wake of the President’s disastrous…

Though most of it didn’t make the Tuesday network evening newscasts, the White House press corps made an effort to raise tough questions with National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and Press Secretary Jen Psaki amidst the collapse of Afghanistan, showing that neither had the answers to basic questions about how they’ll ensure the safe departure of American citizens and Afghan allies, the…

During a contentious exchange with Biden State Department Spokesman Ned Price on Friday, MSNBC’s usually reliable Democratic Party shill Andrea Mitchell lost her patience with the administration flack’s nonsensical talking points on the unfolding humanitarian disaster in Afghanistan. Amid Price’s absurd suggestions that Taliban terrorists could be countered with diplomacy, Mitchell decried…

Retirement plans warn of a “penalty for early withdrawal.” Might that also apply to the withdrawal of American and NATO forces from Afghanistan? If you set aside the victory by coalition forces that expelled Saddam Hussein's overmatched troops from Kuwait in 1991, the U.S. has not won a war since World War II. Not in Korea. Not in Vietnam and now, says President Biden, Afghanistan is a war we…

Former two-time Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld died on Wednesday at the age of 88. Given his role in the Iraq War, both in its conception and in how it was fought, it was inevitable that media reaction would be at least somewhat critical. On his MSNBC show, Ayman Mohyeldin, however, went much further, blaming him and the U.S. for the misery that exists in Iraq and Afghanistan.

After an embarrassing interview with Manhattan Institute scholar Christopher Rufo, MSNBC host Joy Reid reverted to featuring guests who support her erroneous views on critical race theory. On Monday night, she made a safe choice and interviewed a liberal media favorite and professional race-baiter, Ibram X. Kendi, who among other things claimed the U.S. military has a “white supremacist…

On Friday's edition of The 11th Hour on MSNBC, host Brian Williams seemed to suggest that Fox News be banned from military bases because Tucker Carlson responded to Gen. Mark Milley's recent defense of Critical Race Theory by declaring "He’s not just a pig. He’s stupid." Later, Williams tried to tie concerns about CRT in the military to Vladimir Putin.

On Thursday's installment of CNN Newsroom, host Jim Sciutto welcomed retired Lt. General and military analyst Mark Hertling onto the program to discuss and defend Joint Chiefs chairman Gen. Mark Milley's defense of Critical Race Theory being taught at West Point.

Appearing as a guest on Wednesday's Deadline: White House on MSNBC, Vanderbilt University professor and former MSNBC analyst Michael Eric Dyson went into a rant against "mediocre white men" as he reacted to a clip of Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) raising concerns about the influence of Critical Race Theory in the U.S. military during a recent committee hearing.
