Political Scandals

For his first post-Writers’ Strike guest, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel welcomed Arnold Schwarzenegger to discuss his favorite topic: Donald Trump’s weight. Schwarzenegger would also insist that he is still a Republican by offering up left-wing causes such as climate activism and “universal health care” as reasons why.

The men of late night returned from the writers’ strike on Monday and other than CBS’s Stephen Colbert no longer censoring Donald Trump’s name, not much changed as the hosts were eager to get back to their Trump jokes.

After running with New York Democrat Congressman Jamaal Bowman’s absurd excuse for why he pulled the fire alarm in one of the House office buildings on Saturday, it appears at least two of the big three news networks grew tired of the scandal and decided to move on and hope Americans forget about the serious crime Bowman committed. CBS Evening News was the only nightly network news…

It didn't escape notice that none of the networks offered live wall-to-wall coverage of the first hearing of the House impeachment inquiry. When they covered it later, they made a point of rallying for Biden. An impeachment inquiry into Trump was urgent and deserving news. A Biden inquiry is dismissed as garbage. 

CNN senior political analyst John Avlon gave an unofficial donate to Biden 2024 on Friday’s CNN This Morning as he hailed his Thursday speech “about threats to democracy” and “bipartisanship” while Republicans launch their “farcical impeachment inquiry.”

During the Thursday edition of MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports, the eponymous host battled with Virginia GOP Rep. Bob Good on the beginning of the House’s impeachment inquiry into President Biden with mutual accusations of spreading falsehoods. Immediately afterword, Mitchell welcomed New York Democratic Rep. Dan Goldman for a much softer interview.

Political commentator and alleged former Republican strategist Ana Navarro argued on Tuesday’s CNN News Central that the lesson of the Sen. Bob Menendez scandal is that Democrats are better than Republicans because Democrats are distancing themselves from the “champion for the Latino community.”

Perennially shady Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez (NJ) was indicted on bribery charges Friday, and the partisan labeling by the New York Times has been unpredictable, sometimes aggressively identifying him as a Democrat senator, sometimes ignoring the D. Times reporter Glenn Thrush had the audacity to see a silver lining for the Biden DOJ in this new indictment, exemplified…

President Joe Biden’s drug addict son Hunter Biden launched a frivolous lawsuit Monday against his father’s own IRS due to the agency allegedly releasing his tax records during a whistleblower report against the agency. While ABC's World News Tonight ignored this escalation from Hunter Biden's team, the CBS Evening News chose not to simply report on it. Instead, they touted Hunter “…

NBC’s chief Biden tool and apple polisher Mike Memoli hit send Sunday on a puketastic item with colleagues Carol Lee and Monica Alba that painted President Biden with nothing but sympathy from the get-go in “Biden allies worry son Hunter’s indictment could strain the president’s 2024 focus”.

ABC’s This Week co-moderator Jonathan Karl showed how blinded he is by his leftist partisanship Sunday when he began arguing with South Carolina Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace that there’s no evidence to support the Biden bribery scandal. This despite the mountain of evidence that’s already been uncovered by congressional investigations into Hunter Biden that have implicated…

Some people have argued that the revelations that Democratic Virginia State House Susanna Gibson’s history of making pornography should be disqualifying. Others have said it was no big deal, but the weekly panel on MSNBC’s The 11th Hour with Stephanie Ruhle took it a step further by trying to spin her response to revelations as a positive.

New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart joined PBS NewsHour host Geoff Bennett on Friday for their regularly scheduled recap of the week’s top stories. The trio warned that because Republicans have “no evidence” or “holy cow” moment, they are “cheapening the whole impeachment process.”

Luke Rosiak, reporter for The Daily Wire and 2022 MRC Bulldog Award winner for outstanding investigative journalism, released an article on Friday about the latest developments in the scandal in cam girl turned Democratic Virginia State House candidate Susana Gibson. Rosiak reports that the Associated Press not only passed on the story, but alert Gibson to the fact that her public X-…
