‘Hardball’ Panel Game Plans Trump’s Impeachment, Logan Act Violations
To put it simply, cable news thrives off of speculation and little discussion of the actual news. The Tuesday edition of MSNBC’s Hardball opened with a segment perfectly encapsulating this reality with the panel gaming out how a Trump impeachment could go down, what charges he’d face, and whether he’ll be found to have violated the Logan Act in the Russia probe.
Time Coos Over Stormy Daniels, 'Fiercely Funny' Resistance Heroine
The April 9 issue of Time magazine carried large print at the start of its section "The View." The headline on the article was "Stormy Daniels: underestimated warrior." Susanna Schrobsdorff gushed in fingernail-sized type: "As numb as we have become to the shock and ugh of the Trump presidency, here’s one thing we didn’t foresee: Stormy Daniels, porn star, director, entrepreneur and fiercely…

Roland Martin Demands White Panelist Not Invoke MLK; She Pushes Back
On Sunday's MSNBC Live with Alex Witt, after panelist Jennifer Grossman invoked Martin Luther King's historic "content of their character" statement, TV One's Roland Martin, in a demanding tone, requested a "favor": "Please don’t quote Dr. King."

In a recent public statement at the White House this week, President Trump expressed his desire to pull U.S. troops out of war-torn Syria and bring them home.

Caravans, Churches and Criminal Sanctuaries
Open borders tour guides in Mexico illegally shepherding 1,500 Central Americans to the United States border declared victory this week. Mexican officials reportedly are offering humanitarian visas to avert a showdown. But the parade of immigration lawlessness marches on -- with reckless aiding and abetting by churches across the U.S.
Discrimination and Disparities
I don't mind saying that this column represents a grossly understated review of "Discrimination and Disparities," just published by my longtime friend and colleague Dr. Thomas Sowell. In less than 200 pages, Sowell lays waste to myth after myth not only in the United States but around the globe.
NYT’s SCOTUS Reporter Lauds Justice Sotomayor's Crusade Against Cops
Supreme Court reporter Adam Liptak was quite aggrieved in his "Sidebar" column about a decision involving allegations of excessive force against an Arizona cop. Liptak couldn’t have made it more clear whose side he was on, and focused almost solely on the two liberal dissents, in “Supreme Court Sides With Police Officer Accused of Using Excessive Force.” Liptak devoted 10 paragraphs of the 20-…

CNN's Mudd on Being Subject of Mueller Probe: 'I'd Wet My Pants'
Unhinged people can be counted on to deliver colorfully deranged quotes and on Tuesday night's CNN Tonight the reliably batty Philip Mudd, in his role as their counterterrorism analyst, did not disappoint. In reaction to the good news for President Donald Trump that Special Counsel Robert Mueller named him not a target but merely a subject for investigation, Mudd declared that subject status…

Nets Skimp on YouTube Shooter’s Animal Rights Extremism
What if she’d been an avid NRA supporter? The three networks on Wednesday skimped on the news that YouTube shooter Nasim Aghdam was an animal rights extremist. CBS and NBC barely mentioned it. ABC’s Good Morning America avoided the activism all together.
Media’s ‘Sh*thole’ Coverage Draws 160 FCC Complaints, CNN Got the Most
The media’s attempt to embarrass President Donald Trump – over reports that at a closed-door meeting he called some nations “shithole countries” – generated a lot of ire from viewers who didn’t want to hear that word over and over again.
