For yet another day, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC used their Thursday morning news shows to fluff the White House up in their hapless attempt (which some argue is purposeful) to save their party’s midterm prospects and lower gas prices through a puny release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). ABC’s Good Morning America again played the starring role, offering praise…

During his opening monologue on Wednesday’s All In, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes defended President Biden’s decision to raid the Strategic Petroleum Reserve because gas prices have to be lowered in order to save American democracy from Republicans and their allies in Saudi Arabia and the fossil fuel companies.

On Wednesday night's edition of MSNBC's The ReidOut, host Joy Reid opened the show by lashing out at Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis for daring to enforce the laws of his state and not allow violent felons to illegally vote in elections. Reid who presumably wants violent felons to be allowed to vote melted down and accused Florida of being a Jim Crow state. 

Whether it's in the midterm debates or the forthcoming Republican presidential debates, conservative and Republican voters should never have to accept "moderators" that debate with Republicans or toss gentle softballs to Democrats. Moderators should work hard to appear neutral and not make Republicans debate two Democrats.

The New York Times has released what may be its last major poll before the 2022 elections, and it shows potential good news for the Republican Party. In the latest Times/Siena survey, which the paper featured prominently on the front page under the headline “G.O.P. Gains Edge in Poll As Economy Sways Voters,” the Republican Party erased a one-point deficit against the…

American democracy, we have been told, is in grave peril. It's a perspective we hear echoed dozens of times per day in the mainstream media: If this next election doesn't go precisely how our hallowed elitists desire, surely tyranny will follow. As one of those sagacious experts, MSNBC's Joy Reid, recently put it on Twitter, “It's terrifying how many Americans will choose literal fascism,…

Leave it to ABC’s The View to take up the position that murderers, pedophiles, and other sex offenders deserve to vote and commit voter fraud. That was the hill they wanted to die on Wednesday after body-camera video surfaced showing Florida law enforcement officers arresting individuals accused of illegally voting. The cast didn’t seem to know what the law was with one claiming they…

CNN’s Wednesday edition of New Day lamented that the GOP midterm strategy for winning the Senate involves trying to win elections even if that means putting “party over country” by supporting “dumpster fires.”

Hours before President Biden’s formal announcement that he’s releasing a puny 15 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), the major broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC heralded this nonsensical effort to take oil from a collection meant for serious emergencies and use it to try and rescue Biden and his party’s chances in the midterm elections.

When Trevor Noah eventually leaves Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Democrats will lose a reliable ally in their attempts to scare people into voting for them over the issue of abortion. On Tuesday, Noah spoke out in favor of an ad from Rep. Eric Swalwell depicting a woman getting arrested for an abortion, suggesting it is a very real possibility.

In only the fourth White House press briefing this month, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced a litany of questions Tuesday about the left’s fixation on abortion (instead of crime or the economy). As we’ve come to expect, Fox’s Peter Doocy and Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann turned up the heat with Doocy asking if the White House is more concerned about abortions than struggling…

With the 2022 midterm elections just weeks away, the corporate media have begun to turn up the heat on Republican Herschel Walker, having identified him as a potentially vulnerable candidate in a tight Senate race. Yet those same journalists have bristled at any criticism of Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman — even when it’s come from their own colleagues.

The ladies of ABC’s The View are divorced from reality; a benefit of their uber-wealthy lifestyles that allow them to not face the hardships average Americans are experiencing in the Biden economy. It also constitutes the rickety soapbox co-host Joy Behar stands upon when she repeatedly bemoans how those struggling Americas rank inflation as their top concern in the midterms and for…

Andrea Mitchell kicked off her Tuesday MSNBC show with a 20-minute interview with Speaker Nancy Pelosi that began with her voters do not appreciate the “extraordinary” record that she and President Biden have allegedly built up for the past two years.
