Imagine for a moment that Donald Trump was back in the White House and the news of the day was that the Trump Justice Department was investigating the Biden presidency and the 2024 Harris campaign for “election interference.”

CNN’s Chris Wallace took his 1960 election-related book tour to CBS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Thursday, where he lamented that the “crazy” Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity has made Special Counsel Jack Smith’s life more difficult and sarcastically claimed it was “totally coincidental” that it was a 6-3 ruling along partisan lines with three Trump…

On CNN This Morning, CNN.com White House reporter Stephen Collinson complains that it's taken too long to prosecute Trump in connection with January 6th.

This blog post discusses Politico senior writer Ankush Khardori's response to the Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity, which he believes unfairly benefits Donald Trump.

While CBS and NBC were far more balanced in perspectives and even behaved on Monday morning when it came to Special Reports on the Supreme Court’s Trump immunity case, it was not the case on Disney-run ABC as they kvetched over what they said was an “absolute”, “big”, and “total” win for Trump that was “hard to square” with the Constitution as we know it.

On Monday, MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace, host of Deadline: White House, interviewed Democratic Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (CA) after bombshell never-before-seen footage from her daughter’s January 6 documentary was released. But while the video showed Pelosi in the back a vehicle taking “responsibility” for the Capitol’s security, the intent of the interview was to let her dodge that…

ABC This Week host George Stephanopoulos closes out his interviews of Republicans with a unique bit of sanctimony- the question of whether they’d support former President Donald Trump in the event of a conviction in one of the myriad indictments against him.

In the wake of its Ronna McDaniel fiasco, NBC News tries extra hard to prove just how “cohesive and aligned” they really are. Unfortunately, this now means “cohesive and aligned” with the fringe elements running the show at MSNBC and, by extension, the entire news operation.

CNN's legal analyst Elie Honig claims Jack Smith in violation of DOJ election policy on timing of cases. 

For the men of Thursday’s late night comedy shows, if the “MAGA justices” on the Supreme Court hand Donald Trump a victory by announcing they will hear arguments on his claim to have presidential immunity, it is “terrible news for democracy” because, for them, only when a court rules against Trump is it legitimate.
