Gaslighting CNN Claims Trump Is 'Justifying' Riots As Biden Condemns
September 1st, 2020 4:06 PM
CNN’s Brianna Keilar started off her Tuesday afternoon show with a nasty tirade attacking President Trump for supposedly “endorsing” the violent left-wing riots across America, while she praised Joe Biden for condemning the violence, even though he’s said practically nothing until this past week.

Why Must 'Fact Checkers' Make Rulings on Guesses and Projections?
May 6th, 2020 2:49 PM
One of the most maddening traits of the liberal-media “fact checking” sites is when they’re not checking facts. They’re trying to support Democratic projections about the future. PolitiFact did this for Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers. They gave him a “Mostly True” for bragging his “Safer at Home” lockdown “prevented the death of at least 300 Wisconsinites, and perhaps as many as 1,400 lives."

NYT's Krugman: GOP Somehow Making Wisconsin ‘Hungary on Lake Michigan'
April 12th, 2020 8:47 PM

NY Times Cries Foul, Racism Vs. GOP in Midwest, But Dems Did It Too
December 11th, 2018 3:52 PM
“Midwest Power Grab May Fuel G.O.P. Backlash,” blared the New York Times front page. Lambasting Republicans for post-election legislative maneuvering has been a drumbeat recently at the Times, providing momentum for Democrats to finish in 2020 what they started in the House in 2018.

July 29th, 2018 7:24 AM
