Afghanistan

The White House press briefing returned on Tuesday following a week-long hiatus and, with plenty to talk about, Fox News’s Kristin Fisher burst out of the gate and asked Press Secretary Jen Psaki whether teachers unions hold sway over CDC recommendations for school reopenings as well as what the White House thinks Americans should be allowed to do once vaccinated.

In a classic example of leftist media corruption, on Monday, NBC’s Today show reported on multiple international crises occurring on the Biden administration’s watch without mentioning the President’s name even once. The topics ranged from the U.S. imposing a travel ban on India amid a massive surge in coronavirus cases there, to a boat full of migrants capsizing off the California…

This wasn't a softball interview. It didn't even rise to powder-puff level. This was a love-in. Dana Bash's interview of Vice-President Kamala Harris on CNN's State of the Union that aired on April 25th was nothing short of a journalistic disgrace. Among other failures, Bash didn't ask Harris the most obvious question: why, despite being put in charge of the border crisis by Biden a month…

Thursday’s White House press briefing quickly devolved into a predictable pattern of near emptiness in terms of answers from Press Secretary Jen Psaki, ducked questions on issues such as the debunked Russian bounties story, the Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine, and her party’s attempt to pack the Supreme Court.

On New Day, CNN international correspondent Nick Paton Walsh, commenting on President Biden's decision to withdraw all US troops from Afghanistan, says "I think [Afghanistan] has been left in the lurch to some extent, some would say."  Co-host Poppy Harlow grills Democrat Sen. Chris Coons, who supports the withdrawal, on the threat to women's rights.

Closing out Wednesday’s ReidOut, MSNBC conspiracy theorist and host Joy Reid reupped a ugly, venomous suggestion that Republicans are the modern-day incarnation of al-Qaeda looking to terrorize the United States with former President Trump as their Osama bin Laden in light of the January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Criticizing it as based on "calendars, not conditions," Richard Haass, in his ever-polite fashion, has ripped President Biden's decision to withdraw all US troops from Afghanistan by the 20th anniversary of 9/11. On today's Morning Joe, Haass, the show's foreign policy maven and president of the Council on Foreign Relations, predicted the "near certainty" of a "human rights tragedy." He also…

There was some major whiplash on Tuesday's CBS Evening News when it was reported President Biden would announce American’s withdrawal from Afghanistan after more than 20 years. T The whiplash came from the network’s support for troop withdrawals being dependent on the party affiliation of the president behind it. They even discounted the peace deal President Trump struck to give…

After 65 days in office, President Joe Biden’s handlers trotted him out for his first formal press conference and, unsurprisingly, the adoring and extremely supportive White House press corps debased themselves with an embarrassing affinity for the far-left administration and questions that largely guided the frail commander-in-chief toward their radical agenda.

Tuesday night on CNN, AC360 host Anderson Cooper added to the Jeffrey Zucker-led network’s resume of hate against those they disagree with as he compared former President Donald Trump and his supporters to those that carried out the Bosnian and Rwanda genocides in the 1990s. And to underscore Cooper’s seriousness, a NewsBusters search found that he also leveled these comparisons back on…

MSNBC Live host Stephanie Ruhle invited professional gun control advocate Shannon Watts onto her Wednesday show to discuss recent gun-related news, including the news that the Trump Administration recently lifted the ban on exporting silencers to foreign individuals. According to Watts, this move proves that Trump cares more about Confederate soldiers than he does about…

In a last-minute White House press briefing, Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany opened Tuesday with a stinging rebuke against the virulently anti-Trump and far-left New York Times, eviscerating their anonymously-sourced Russia stories that have “undermine[d]” not only Donald Trump as commander-in-chief, but also national and global security to disseminate threats.

Joe Scarborough believes the Trump administration is lying in saying the president wasn't briefed about a reported Russian bounty on US soldiers in Afghanistan. But if indeed the president wasn't informed of the Russian plot, Scarborough offers two execrable explanations for the omission: President Trump is either too "addled," i.e., demented, to make informing him worthwhile. Or, the…
