The very supportive media environment around President Biden has turned suddenly sour over this administration’s shoddy handling of Afghanistan. This debacle shouldn’t be buried and ignored by the press, like they’ve tried to do with the border crisis. But Biden’s gone back to hiding as a strategy, as he did in the 2020 campaign.

While most Americans were enjoying their Memorial Day weekend by spending time with family and paying tribute to our brave men and women who gave their lives for our country, MSNBC decided to continue vile and vitriolic rants against its political enemies in the Republican Party.

On Wednesday, Washingtonian magazine came out with a nearly-2,220 word profile of White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki that could best be described as a slobbering love letter that hailed her as a fact-based saint who refuses to play to the cameras, plays and works well with reporters, and represented a break from the belligerence and back-talking of the Obama and Trump…

President Biden delivered his first State of the Union address, proposing three vast spending plans adding up to a $6 trillion dollar price tag, and the New York Times was awed by the historic nature of his “ambitious plans” that “could make him a transformational figure in American history,” according to White House reporter Annie Karni. According to economics reporter Jim Tankersley…

ABC’s This Week was on a roll Sunday during their so-called “Powerhouse Roundtable” as they showed off just how much of a propaganda outlet for the Democratic Party they are. Between news analyst Matthew Dowd suggesting the Republican Party was “team autocracy” and fill-in host Martha Raddatz claiming there was no evidence of wrongdoing from Hunter Biden, the panel discussion was…

Liberal outlet Politico is already attempting to shield former Vice President Joe Biden from criticism of a potential economic failure by — wait for it — blaming President Donald Trump.

The New York Times tried to hurry the vote-counting process along and declare Joe Biden the winner on Thursday’s front page: "If President Trump loses his bid for re-election, as looked increasingly likely on Wednesday, it would be the first defeat of an incumbent president in 28 years." The Times also saw Trump celebrating a “mirage of victory” (even though ballots were…

Jessica Bennett, the New York Times’ first “gender editor,” filed some silly pre-election psychoanalysis for Monday’s edition: “Trump (Tough Guy), Biden (Nice Guy) and the Politics of Manliness.” Bennett opened with the textual equivalent of a campaign video for a former Democratic president that the media clearly misses: "The words were evocative, and not simply because Mr. Obama…

MTP Daily host Chuck Todd and New York Times White House correspondent Peter Baker lamented that President Trump has not issued a Mea culpa thus far during his campaign on a Friday segment where they cited and praised three Democrats of previous years for apologizing to the voters for their records.

The New York Times really stepped in it in Friday’s lead story, “President Lashes Out At His Aides With Calls To Indict Political Rivals.” In the rush by reporters Peter Baker and Maggie Haberman to show President Trump as a conspiratorial madman, the paper indulged in its own left-wing conspiracy, involving an allegedly faked-up trip by Trump to the South Lawn.

New York Times reporters dealt with the deadly state of wildfires in California on Monday’s front page, but used it solely as a cudgel with which to bash President Trump, in two front-page stories: “Trump, a Bold Climate Denier, Confronts a Charred California" and “Spurred By Fires, Trump and Biden Clash On Climate."

The Labor Day edition of the New York Times led its National section with a hostile full-page “news analysis” from chief White House correspondent Peter Baker on President Trump’s supposed appeals to white grievance in “Trump Makes White Grievance a Pillar of His Campaign – Seeking a Political Lift From Banning Training On Racial Sensitivity.” But Trump didn't ban mere "racial…

The New York Times’ front-page “news analysis” by Peter Baker and Maggie Haberman, “Fanning Strife With Kenosha In His Sights,” continued the paper’s pathetic pivot from ignoring violence at the “mostly peaceful” demonstrations in U.S. cities to blaming it on Trump, who is visiting Kenosha, Wisconsin, cite of the latest rioting, on Tuesday. The distortions started in the lead sentence…

The Republican National Convention launched last night, and the New York Times launched its contemptuous coverage with Trump-hostile White House correspondent Peter Baker setting the table on Monday’s front page: “As Woes Grow, President Aims To Shift Story.” Baker told a whopper about the now famous McCloskey couple of St. Louis, supposedly “brandishing guns at peaceful Black Lives…
