On Thursday’s MTP Daily, MSNBC host Chuck Todd tried to blame Washington “dysfunction” solely on Republicans and even suggested the GOP was attempting to “sabotage” Democrats ahead of the 2022 midterms. He later concluded that the “propagandist media...on the right” was to blame for Republican senators standing on principle and opposing government spending legislation.

On Monday, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle couldn’t understand why President Biden’s poll numbers were collapsing, suggested the Omicron variant of COVID could help ease inflation, and whined about reporters covering high gas prices. All of that left-wing spin occurred throughout her 9:00 ET hour show as she desperately tried to protect the White House from criticism on multiple fronts.

With the emergence of the new Omicron Covid variant out of South Africa that’s reportedly more transmissible than Delta, the liberal media’s initial reaction on Sunday was to fret for the future – not in terms of how it could hurt people, but how it could hurt President Biden’s agenda. ABC’s Good Morning America worried about the midterm elections and NBC’s Sunday Today…

When Donald Trump was president, Joe Scarborough ceaselessly mocked him for his overly-optimistic predictions at the beginning of the pandemic as to when Covid would be gone. Among other things, Scarborough endlessly repeated Trump's erroneous forecast that Covid would be gone "by April." Scarborough's repetitions of those lines became such a running joke on Morning Joe, that the show devoted…

Wednesday’s CBS Mornings dove into what they saw as one of the mysteries of this current political era: Why won’t voters be more supportive of President Biden and his fellow Democrats, seeing as how they do so much to make our lives better? Prior to a segment that suggested Thanksgiving gatherings have appetizers and drinks in the garage while people take Covid rapid tests, the table…

CNN reminded the world on Monday afternoon that their intellectually lazy and poisonously partisan world exists far outside the bounds of reality as weekday afternoon CNN Newsroom co-host Alisyn Camerota found it worth spending 13 minutes and 16 seconds speaking with former Donald Trump lawyer and fix Michael Cohen to celebrate his release from house arrest. But worse yet, the pair…

Morning Joe to the rescue to lift Democrat spirits! Today's panel went out of its way to praise Nancy Pelosi as one of the "most successful" Speakers ever. This despite the prospect of her presiding, in 2022, over the loss of Dem House seats counted in the dozens. And Biden's catastrophic poll numbers? Happy days will soon be here again, assures the Morning Joe panel. Covid and inflation will…

Joe Scarborough's leftward lurch  continues apace. We've documented Scarborough's support for a variety of liberal positions, with a particular emphasis on what the Democrats euphemistically call their "voting rights" bill. Last month, we noted Scarborough analogizing Republican opposition to the bill to George Wallace standing in the schoolhouse door. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough took…

Continuing to double down on her lifestyle of spewing vile bile to the approval of her bosses at Comcast, MSNBC’s The ReidOut host Joy Reid came up with new ways Thursday to engage in incitement, calling Republicans “the YOLO parent” who doesn’t want people to have health care and “whose answer to anything and everything is to scream about the border and, ‘the scary Brown people are…

A leftist “dark money” group funded by liberal billionaire George Soros spent hundreds of millions of dollars in an obsessive effort to place Democrats in political power. The notorious Sixteen Thirty Fund “doled out a whopping $410 million in 2020” for the purpose of “aiding Democratic efforts to unseat then-President Donald Trump and win back control of the Senate,” according to Politico.…

It sounded like a scripture study on CNN's New Day as Never Trumper David Frum quoted the prophet Isaiah in urging Americans to fight back against Trump. "Whom shall I send?" said the Lord. Isaiah said "Send me!"

NPR felt pressed to delete a tweet on Tuesday that rained on the parade of newly elected Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, since many black voters were upset that their preferred minority didn't win the office. It said in part "While many are hailing it as a turning point, others see it as more of a disappointment that the three Black candidates couldn't even come close." 

Bill Maher took off against the “woke” Left again on Friday night’s Real Time show on HBO, singling out a nasty MSNBC headline about Glenn Youngkin’s election in Virginia as proof of “white ignorance.” 

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough takes a two-fold approach to covering for Biden's terrible poll numbers. First, he claims that the 17% of Democrats who have deserted Biden would "obviously...come home": i.e., vote Democrat, when the electoral chips were down. Scarborough's second move was to quickly pivot away from Biden's bad numbers, and switch to touting support for the recently-…
