Political Groups

Professor and podcaster Christina Greer and MSNBC Prime host Alicia Menendez had what could only be described as an epic meltdown on Wednesday. As the White House has started kicking around various ideas to reverse declining birthrates, the duo insisted that “we know” that their actual intention is to increase the political power of white people.

Over there on this very site, NewsBusters’ own Alex Christy had a sharp-eyed focus on a curious moment on a recent episode of Stephen Colbert’s late night CBS show. 

In March, ABC’s nominal funny man Jimmy Kimmel sat down with Rolling Stone’s Stephen Rodrick for a wide-ranging interview that was published on Tuesday and naturally touched on Kimmel’s place in the Trump era. Among other things, on America’s ability to “do the right thing,” Kimmel mourned, “That’s obviously in the past.”

Every once in a while, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel will do a man-on-the-street interview type of segment where he sends someone out to demonstrate how dumb Donald Trump supporters supposedly are in an attempt to discredit one of Trump’s positions. However, Wednesday’s attempt at this unwittingly backfired on Kimmel, who was blissfully unaware that one conspiracy theory floated by one of the…

Sen. Cory Booker continued his tour of adoring media on Monday as he joined CBS and The Late Show host Stephen Colbert for a three-segment interview to look back at his 25-hour talk session and ahead to what comes next. Booker has been eager to compare himself to the Civil Rights Movement, and Colbert was more than willing to assist him in those efforts.

It all began with William F. Buckley, Jr. It is worth noting that 2025 marks the centenary of Buckley’s birth. With the founding of National Review in 1955, Buckley was opening the floodgates on what would come to be known as conservative media.

The cast of Friday’s PBS News Hour could hardly contain their excitement over Sen. Cory Booker’s 25-hour Senate speech denouncing all things Donald Trump. Host Amna Nawaz claimed it “inspired” people, a point echoed by Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart, who labeled it “inspiring.” Meanwhile, New York Times columnist David Brooks praised Booker for…

Radio host Charlamagne Tha God joined Comedy Central’s The Daily Show on Tuesday for one of his irregular scheduled “In My Opinion” segments. Recently, Charlamagne’s opinions have focused on the woeful state of the Democratic Party, but Charlamagne found reason for optimism on Tuesday as he applauded the stunt work of Sen. Cory Booker, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, and his own uncensored N-…

Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks had an actual debate on Friday’s PBS News Hour. However, it was more of an inside-the-family argument about the best way for Democrats to stand up to President Donald Trump. Capehart argued that, after Senate Democrats declined to shut down the government, the party needs to grow “a spine,” while…

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel displayed the sense of humor of a 12-year old on his Wednesday show. After hyping a new penis implant designed by American, Chinese, and Japanese scientists, Kimmel suggested that a bunch of MAGA people would benefit from the invention.

Every Friday, PBS News Hour devotes a segment to recapping the week's news with New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart. Brooks is supposed to be the conservative half of the duo, but according to a new NewsBusters study, he agrees with Capehart 61 percent of the time.

The alleged “twinkle in his eye” was missing from John Oliver’s latest Sunday rant on Last Week Tonight. The HBO host was tremendously upset that “centrist Democrats” are supposedly insistent on “bending over backwards for conservatives” to the point where they are praising Ronald Reagan. As Oliver tells it, the best thing Reagan did was die, and that if he were alive today, he would…

CBS’s Taylor Tomlinson was distraught on Wednesday’s edition of After Midnight. Not only did she say President Donald Trump’s Tuesday address to Congress was full of “lies, propaganda, and threats,” but she also accused Democrats and the New York Times of not being able to stand up to Trump and his “fascism.”

CBS’s Stephen Colbert stayed up for a live show on what turned out to be Wednesday morning after President Donald Trump’s address to Congress. Colbert spent his monologue praising Rep. Al Green for getting kicked out of the House chamber and attacking Trump on everything from transgender issues to shipbuilding. Later, he would welcome former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to wonder, “…
