As Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House, CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to the Wednesday edition of The Late Show, where he lobbed a softball her way when he asked, “Could you have been a better cheerleader for the economy?” Also on the subject of Trump’s return, Colbert hailed former First Lady Michelle Obama’s decision to skip the…
CBS Asks If Biden Will Be Compared to FDR & Washington or Wilson & JFK
On Thursday morning and after some cockamamie, tone-deaf reactions Wednesday night to President Biden’s farewell address, the major broadcast networks chose to double down with empty stenography for power with one network going to nonsensical links suggesting Biden could one day be compared to President George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon Johnson as one of the country’s…
'I Miss Him': Joy Gives Ode To Biden, Blames Musk For World Hunger
The View’s Joy Behar gave an ode to President Joe Biden on ABC’s Thursday program after his farewell address to the nation on Wednesday night by claiming that “I miss him already.” She also echoed his “oligarchs” talking point by going full socialist crank by blaming Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos for world hunger.

CNN’s Scott Jennings DESTROYS Biden’s Farewell Speech

MSNBC Fawns Over Biden Farewell, Bolsters Fake ‘Oligarchy’ Narrative
Predictably, the prime time hosts at MSNBC oohed and aahed over President Joe Biden’s farewell address with a verve normally seen emanating from television production studios in Pyongyang.

Nets Fawn Over Biden’s ‘Extraordinary’ ‘Speech for the History Books’
ABC, CBS, and NBC broke in Wednesday night for President Biden’s farewell address and, while they were never in total awe like they were with Barack Obama, they still showed their stripes in cheering the “advocate for working people” giving “very personal” “speech for the history books” and delivering an “extraordinary” message about the decline of “fact-checking” and an “oligarchy...that…
BRUTAL Defamation Juror Questions Give Insight Ahead of Deliberations
Something unique about the Florida judicial system is, baring objection of counsels and the court, jurors get to ask questions of the witnesses.

Last KJP Briefing Brings an Emotional Speech, Non-Answers, and a Shrug
Wednesday afternoon brought us the final Biden White House press briefing and, by her own count, the 306th featuring the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

Meyers Writer Ruffin Tries To Smear GOP Senator's Husband as a Racist
As President-elect Donald Trump brings attention to the fact that NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers is basically just MSNBC with silly metaphors, show writer Amber Ruffin joined the Tuesday show to recall an incident several days prior where Nebraska Sen. Deb Fischer’s husband, Bruce, did not shake Vice President Kamala Harris’s hand during her swearing-in photo-op. Instead of…

With the final White House press briefing on Wednesday afternoon, we’re looking back at the best hardballs, tussles, and moments over the hundreds of Biden administration press briefings, primarily helmed by Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre.

The View Labels Hegseth 'Least Qualified' SECDEF Nominee In History
ABC’s The View reacted as one would expect on Tuesday to Secretary of Defense-designate Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing the previous day. The table’s nominal Republican, Alyssa Farah Griffin, applauded Sen. Tammy Duckworth’s strange questioning about ASEAN while Joy Behar implied GOP Sen. Joni Ernst has betrayed her fellow sexual assault survivors by supporting Hegseth’s…
Klepper: Hegseth's Focus On Merit Is 'Damning' Since He's a TV Host
Comedy Central’s host of the week of The Daily Show, Jordan Klepper, unleashed two clunkers on Tuesday as he reacted to Secretary of Defense-designate Pete Hegseth’s Senate confirmation hearing. First, Klepper chopped off one of Hegseth’s answers mid-sentence to falsely claim Hegseth has flip-flopped and gone woke on women in combat. Second, Klepper claimed that Hegseth’s obsession…
