Fictional hedge fund manager Bobby “Axe” Axelrod delivered his own variation of Gordon Gekko’s famous “greed is good” monologue on this week’s Billions. In so doing, it revealed more than just Axe’s ruthlessness. It proved that his idea of what capitalism is, is not the same capitalist theory of economics supported by Adam Smith or Milton Friedman and lauded by conservatives and libertarians.

These days, the last thing we want to think about is being cooped inside for what seems like forever. Unfortunately for us, that happens to be the plot of TNT’s Snowpiercer which premiered May 17. Based on the 1982 French graphic novel Le Transperceneige as well as the 2013 movie Snowpiercer, we follow a post-apocalyptic society that doesn’t forget to remind us about the true horror: climate…

Donald Trump gave a presidential press conference from the Rose Garden on Friday, updating the American public on the development of a vaccine for Coronavirus. During the press conference, CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins seemed perturbed that some people speaking from behind the podium, including the President, were not wearing a mask. Based on her line of questioning, it would seem as if Collins…

CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter is so robotically repetitive in his anti-Trump speeches that he actually boasted on Sunday that he was repeating word-for-word a 2017 lecture on Trump’s anti-media rhetoric being “poison.” He began by declaring “The American press is stronger than any demagogue, but President Trump’s attacks present real challenges.”

In two college graduation speeches over the weekend, former President Obama bashed President Trump for his handling of the coronavirus crisis. Of course, this drew the adulation of the liberal media. Sunday’s Meet the Press on NBC was a prime example of this as their panel of journalists gushed and suggested Trump was “nervous” of Obama becoming active in the 2020 race, and said the bashing was…

In a feisty appearance on ABC’s This Week on Sunday, White House trade adviser Peter Navarro, who has proudly described himself as a national quartermaster during the pandemic, took ABC chief anchor and Clinton lackey George Stephanopoulos to school on how the Tump administration had responded in the early days of the pandemic. At one point, Stephanopoulos even seemed to concede that the facts…

It's a classic MSM damned-if-you-do-or-don't trap. On Joy Reid's MSNBC show today, MSNBC legal analyst Glenn Kirschner suggested that President Trump is "corruptly" going after Sen. Richard Burr [R-NC] because Burr has demonstrated insufficient "loyalty" to the president.

Conservative Twitter erupted Saturday night over a forthcoming puff piece in The Washington Post Magazine on Stacey Abrams. It's not in Sunday's magazine, so it must be online at least a week before it's actually in print. The author isn't a Post reporter. It's a left-wing black activist named Kevin Powell, who ran unsuccessfully several times for Congress in Brooklyn.

Talk about reverse discrimination! On Tuesday, NFL owners will meet via video conferencing to consider incentives to hire more minority executives and coaches that amount to affirmative action on steroids. Get this: under this proposed plan, teams that hire nonwhite general managers, coaches or assistant coaches would move up several positions in the third round of the draft and receive an extra…

On Saturday's PoliticsNation show with Rev. Al Sharpton, MSNBC contributor Zerlina Maxwell made her latest foray into throwing around accusations of racism as she claimed that President Donald Trump's use of the word "Obamagate" is "the new birtherism " and suggested that the word is code for "He is a black president."

Florida-based Politico reporter Marc Caputo was attacked for writing "snarky nonsense" when he suggested the national media have been much rougher on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis than New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo -- you know, the media darling whose press conferences are broadcast nationwide and who gets puffball interviews from his brother on CNN. 

Georgia has become an "experiment in human sacrifice" and that state "leads the race to become America's no. 1 Death Destination." Those were among the many warnings from the mainstream media in April in reaction to the announcement by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp lifting many of the lockdown restrictions that had been imposed due to the coronavirus outbreak.  Of course, you won't be seeing much…

How does Watergate differ from Obamagate? Journalists led the charge to uncover the first. But now? Now journalists are leading the coverup of the second. Over there at Real Clear Investigations, J. Peder Zane has illustrated the media coverup exactly. A sample from Zane:

Saturday’s New York Times cheered on the no-limits left-wing spending wishlist of congressional Democrats in “G.O.P.’s Slow Approach To Aid Risks Blowback” by congressional reporter Carl Hulse. It is Hulse’s favorite type of story, one he rewrites constantly: Democrats in Congress pressuring Republicans to cave in on one thing or another -- immigration, spending, taxes, etc: "But their resistance…
