On New Day, Democrat Bakari Sellers, a CNN political commentator, speaks of "the malaise that we’re in now with the resurgence of the virus, inflation, et cetera." In doing so, Sellers echoed Kamala Harris, who over the weekend said America was at a "level of malaise."

On her MSNBC show on Saturday, Tiffany Cross claimed that "despite everything this country has done to people who look like you and me," she and Malcolm Nance are "bigger patriots" than Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz, whom she described as "half-witted."

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, per the ancient adage. And thus, for their condemnations of Donald Trump and the January 6th riot, Liz and Dick Cheney and Karl Rove have become the friends of the left. But for denizens of the liberal media, any praise of that trio— and in particular Dick Cheney and Rove—risks alienating their liberal base, which loathes them. And so it was that on Nicolle…

NewsBusters rings in 2022 with Nick “Night Train” Fondacaro filling in for Tim Graham and discussing the media New Year resolution to make every day, this midterm year, about January 6 in an attempt to swing the election for Democrats. I’m also joined by research director Scott Whitlock to talk about the media’s refusal to better themselves as they stoke hatred against the right.

The opening segment of the December 23 Morning Joe was one — interminable — tongue bath for Joe Biden. On everything from the omicron variant to the supply chain, to inflation, the panel lavished praise on Ol' Saint Joe. The praise reached its absurd apotheosis with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski twice -- joking-not-joking -- speaking of a "Christmas miracle." Scarborough ended…

Tiffany Cross was sipping a New Year's champagne cocktail on her MSNBC show this morning. Perhaps Cross could have used it to wash down a Prozac. Or two. Because the news she was getting from her panel about the 2022 elections was decidedly depressing for liberals like her: Joe Biden is dragging down Democrat candidates across the country. One panelist depicted Biden as an "albatross" on the…

Lumping Donald Trump with Osama Bin Laden? That's going too easy on the former president! On New Day, CNN's "national security analyst" and former Obama aide Juliette Kayyem said that when a year ago in an Atlantic article she depicted Trump as being "the leader of a terror movement," she was, as she recently tweeted, actually being "too kind" to him!

Appearing on New Day,  CNN political commentator S.E. Cupp says that the prospect of Donald Trump's January 6th speech at Mar a Lago  makes her "physically ill, nauseous, and very afraid." As for whether congressional Republicans would move away from Trump, Cupp said: "I have long given up on the sort of pivot, that Republicans will see Jesus and understand just how dangerous and…

Professor and MSNBC contributor Eddie Glaude Jr. was not happy with Sen. Joe Manchin's announcement that he is a no on the so-called Build Back Better bill, claiming him to be "a kind of relic of a previous era," who is indifferent to people suffering while he lives luxuriously. 

On Morning Joe, Scarborough expresses understanding of the Democrats' anger at Manchin, but warns them that they are pushing him into the arms of the GOP. He cites the precedent of Jumpin' Jim Jeffords, who left the GOP and joined the Democrats over his disputes with Pres. George W. Bush, thereby handing the Democrats the Senate majority.

MTP Daily host Chuck Todd lamented on Thursday that President Biden's legislative agenda appears to be falling apart. In response to that, he plotted strategy with Democratic pollster Cornell Belcher and further lamented that, unlike Mitch McConnell, Democrats don't know how to play hardball.

MSNBC's Hallie Jackson promoted the latest "misinformation" report from New York Times political reporter Maggie Astor, who claimed on Tuesday that Democrats are more truthful than Republicans and purported to have a study to prove it. Jackson betrayed the tilt just by suggesting which subjects are most often the targets of the accused misinformers. Times reporters "watched as…

You know the Democrats are in deep trouble when even CNN admits it. On Monday's New Day, CNN's Isaac Dovere reported that, contrary to her 2018 pledge to serve no more than four more years as Speaker, Nancy Pelosi is considering running yet again for Speaker in 2022. That led Dovere to describe the "existential crisis" in which the Dems are mired.

Joe Scarborough was back on his anti-social-media hobbyhorse again on today's Morning Joe. He and the panel were reacting to items in the news: the testimony of Instagram's CEO yesterday before a Senate committee, and an advisory from the Surgeon General warning about a mental health crisis among young people. Scarborough's solution was to hold social media companies like Instagram liable for…
