Hillary Clinton must just hate Time magazine columnist Joe Klein. He’s written entire books rhapsodizing about the protean political gifts of her husband (The Natural). Ten years ago, he waxed over Obama. “Obama seemed the political equivalent of a rainbow — a sudden preternatural event inspiring awe and ecstasy.” This year, he’s completely unimpressed by her: “I’m not at all certain that…

Veteran Washington Post journalist Carl Bernstein on Thursday rejected the comparison of “authoritarian” Donald Trump to a principled man like Barry Goldwater. Bernstein appeared on CNN Tonight to discuss a 1964 commercial in which a man rejects the presidential candidacy of Goldwater because he’s “scary” and “weird" people support him.

Friday’s CBS This Morning relied on slanted liberal analysis from the supposedly “nonpartisan” Tax Policy Center to bash the tax plans of Republican candidates Donald Trump and Ted Cruz while defending Hillary Clinton’s proposal as simply maintaining the “status quo.”

It hurts to discover your political hero is just another sell-out hack. And so it was for Mika Brzezinski today, confronted with the reality that her idol, Elizabeth Warren, whom she was promoting for president as early as 2013, has apparently sold out in return for a spot in a a prospective Hillary Clinton administration. Today's Morning Joe rolled a clip of Fauxcahontas repeatedly dodging…

On two occasions Thursday night during the opening panel segment of MSNBC’s The Last Word, liberals Charles Pierce of Esquire and MSNBC’s Joy Reid mocked radio talk show host and Resurgent writer Erick Erickson for leading the anti-Donald Trump movement when he himself is “quite the vulgarian” like Trump.

After introducing a candidate who looks like Marco Rubio but sounds like Bernie Sanders, ABC's Scandal now has its Trump lookalike candidate, a misogynistic billionaire businessman who rants about "freeloading illegals."

The major broadcast networks omitted from their Thursday morning and evening newscasts e-mails revealed late Wednesday that Hillary Clinton was denied requests in 2009 when she became secretary of state that she be outfitted with a government-secured Blackberry in order to handle classified information on her smartphone. 

In a bizarre moment on Thursday's Hardball in which host Chris Matthews noted how many suburban conservative are "embarrassed" by party nomination frontrunner Donald Trump, the MSNBC host subtly attacked these voters as "white flight" Republicans who perhaps exhibit a "tinge" of racism but are embarrassed by the blatant, overt racism they see in Donald Trump's campaign pitch.

Univision's María Elena Salinas gives us some more bellicose rhetoric and CNN rehashes an old narrative.

Entertainment Weekly reports that TBS Full Frontal “comedian” Samantha Bee unleashed her feminist rage at MSNBC host Joe Scarborough because he tweeted like some kind of thug that Hillary should smile after her primary wins on Tuesday. The magazine reported “some Twitter users pointed out that telling a woman to smile is a common refrain heard from street harassers.” “Smile,” he wrote on Twitter…

In an interview with Fusion’s Daniel Rivero, Hillary Clinton supporter Dolores Huerta went into her now typical “full smear” mode, maligning the entire GOP presidential field and comparing Donald Trump to the long-deceased former racist and segregationist, George Wallace.  

How do you make a raunchy show that features pegging and bestiality as major plot points even more offensive? Have Clinton guest star. No, not the alleged rapist and serial philanderer, Bill Clinton, but the one who stood by him all these years and is now running for president.

In a Monday afternoon post which gets close to taking pleasure in the serious economic decline in the heart of the coal mining industry in West Virginia, CNN Money's Patrick Gillespie observed, based on Hillary Clinton's recent remarks about coal miners' jobs, that she "has no love for coal companies." But in Gillespie's world, what Mrs. Clinton said doesn't matter, because "Clinton won't have…

The “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC on Thursday night insisted President Barack Obama’s latest Supreme Court nominee, Merrick Garland, is nothing but a “moderate” and personally pleaded with Republicans to consider placing him on the Court. While two networks mentioned comments made by Vice President Joe Biden back in 1992 about Court appointments, none of them made light of the…
