Anyone hoping the interview of President Biden by George Stephanopoulos of ABC News would allay fears by growing numbers of Democrats that the president is not mentally fit to serve another four years must be disappointed. When asked repeatedly and in different ways if he would take an independent neurological exam, Biden refused, claiming he is mentally fit and doesn’t need a test because he…

On Monday of this week, in the wake of Biden's disastrous debate performance, Mika Brzezinski repeatedly claimed, as we noted here, that she wasn't close to calling on him to quit the race, and to the contrary, believed that he is still the "man for the moment." But what a difference two days make. On Wednesday's Morning Joe, Mika didn't make a peep of protest in response to an avalanche of…

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. Khardori, known for his strong anti-Trump stance, argues that the July 1 ruling on presidency immunity has rewritten the constitution.

A disastrous debate performance by Joe Biden has led to widespread concern among Democrats, with some calling for him to end his campaign.

The post suggests that in recent coverage of the Hunter Biden trial, Politico attempted to distance itself from its previous stance, which it claims contributed to social media suppression of the scandal. The blog…

A coalition of leftist groups published a dishonest attack on Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito just prior to the announcement of the verdict in former President Donald Trump’s criminal trial last Thursday and in the midst of  the Supreme Court announcing numerous opinions this June and July — among them a case involving presidential immunity. A number of the involved groups received millions…

The Democrat-allied media energetically present Trump's prosecutors as nonpartisans enforcing a "rule of law." They couldn't possibly be prosecuting Trump to advance their career among Democrats. But hours after the guilty verdicts for Trump, Politico gushed "Alvin Bragg sealed his place in Democratic lore," and "now, Bragg can write his own political ticket."

On Wednesday's CNN This Morning, host Kasie Hunt agrees with a Politico article headlined, "Dems in full-blown ‘freakout’ over Biden."  Hunt: "I have to say, I feel that from sources, that they ARE freaking out about the state of the campaign."

"News" outlets are engaged in feverish speculation about just how dystopian Donald Trump's second term might be. Their fervent imaginations overrule the reality of Trump's first term, which never devolved into dictatorship. Politico conducted a Q&A with Samantha Rose Hill, a scholar of totalitarianism and the author Hannah Arendt which center on how much of a dictator Trump might become if…

It was a livelier-than-usual roundtable on Friday’s Washington Week with The Atlantic, as the import of former President Trump’s polling strength in the face of multiple trials seemed to be causing panic among the press corps. Moderator Jeffrey Goldberg led the feisty journalists in the discussion, including Laura Barrón-López of PBS NewsHour, Eugene Daniels of Politico,…

Politico senior media writer Jack Shafer argued on Saturday that Fox’s coverage of the Trump trial in Manhattan exposed a propaganda network -- while CNN and MSNBC going into gavel-to-gavel overdrive does not?
