Column: Cowardly Biden Hides From the Press on Afghanistan

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.

Bonkers MSNBC: Right-Wing Extremists More Threatening Than Al-Qaeda

Wallace spent a good deal of her show Thursday deflecting blame from the president and talking about anything else besides Afghanistan. A man arrested outside the Library of Congress today, ranting about Biden and falsely threatening to have a bomb in his car, provided Wallace with the much needed fodder to fret that right-wing extremists were actually “the gravest” national security threat…

Freeform Comedy Demands Reparations Because World 'Appropriates'

Thankfully the extremely racist, two-part episode on Freeform’s grown-ish is behind us, but, unfortunately, the show’s not done spewing racism. Should we really expect anything else from a show that said white people are “inherently bad,” and featured a protestor holding a sign reading, “Put avocado on racism so white people will pay attention?”cado on racism so white people will pay…

Comedian Larry David Shuns Trump Lawyer Dershowitz in Public

CBS, NBC Ignore Evidence Biden Was Warned This Would Happen By Embassy

According to a bombshell report from The Wall Street Journal Thursday, the U.S. Embassy in Kabul had sent an urgent cable to the Biden administration in July warning that the chaos we’re now seeing would occur.

The media’s attempted rehabilitation of Jimmy Carter never ends. Early on Thursday, Associated Press posted this article by Bill Barrow: “Jimmy Carter, trounced in 1980, gets fresh look from history.” In reality, Carter’s just getting another outburst of boosterism from liberals. Carter is now 96 and confined to home, but AP sounds like they're trying to cheer him up.
