So desperate are the media to discredit the work of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and by extension that of Elon Musk, that they are willing to resort to rank fear mongering. As Major Garrett’s report for the CBS Evening News proves, they also seem to believe that their viewers are morons.

At less than three weeks into the second Trump administration, the Wall Street Journal somehow discerned on Friday that "The Mood of the American Consumer is Souring." But they only found one Trump voter whose mood had soured. 

Now that the Second Trump Administration is going through the vast federal bureaucracy looking to root out waste, fraud, and abuse through the innovative DOGE, there is a sudden interest in Congressional independence. On ABC This Week, that hypocritical sudden interest was swiftly called out.

The media are united in their purpose of trying to save government workers from the DOGE ax. Across the dial, each evening newscast devoted significant time to creating in their respective audiences an empathy for government bloat.

On Wednesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s third press briefing mostly centered around two wildly different issues of transgenderism and the future of the Gaza Strip (especially in light of President Trump’s Tuesday claim the U.S. would take it over). And, as she’s done, called on a wide swath of reporters from legacy liberal networks to our friends in conservative…

It seems as if The Washington Post has dropped its facade somewhat about how star-spangled fantastic the Biden economy supposedly was, but only now that President Donald Trump is in office. Coincidence? We think not!

When you as a liberal Democrat have lost CNN’s Abby Phillip and your protest gets LITERALLY laughed at live on CNN air, it may be a sign that your ability to influence coverage of the day’s events is waning. This was the reaction garnered by Congressional Democrats’ protest outside the headquarters of the dying United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

The Resistance Media continue to seethe over the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) march through the federal government, particularly through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). USAID coverage trod old and familiar tropes, seeking to elicit sympathy for the dying agency.

ABC’s Good Morning America aired Monday possibly the most deceitful and glossy depiction of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs as “merit-based,” a continuation of the civil rights movement “levelling the playing field,” and creating “equitable outcomes.” DEI does not, they insisted, have anything to do with hurting one group of people or giving prominence to those…

On CNN This Morning, DC lobbyist Jonathan Kott, a former aide to Senators Coons and Manchin, predicts that Trump supporters will give him six to eight months, but then "turn quickly" on him when the improvements in their lives he promised don't materialize. Kott's powers of prognostication have a questionable track record. Less than two months before the 2024 election, Kott was on Fox News…

Trashing Trump's imposition of a 25% tariff on imports from Canada, CNN cites Canada's role as a US military ally and plays a clip of Canadian PM Trudeau doing the same. By far the most important military ally of the US since the Revolution was the Soviet Union in WWII. By that logic, does CNN condemn the Cold War against the Soviet Union and the imposition of economic sanctions on Russia?

On Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Michael Steele mocks Donald Trump for supposedly using a high-pitched "little Mike Tyson voice" in speaking with Gavin Newsom.

A Canadian actor who lives in the U.S. is crying about how upset he is that he will be paying less taxes under President Donald Trump. The stupid is strong with this one. Canadian actor Simu Liu — known for portraying Shang-Chi in Marvel’s superhero flick Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021) — posted one of the most beta male things on the internet January 22.

Defending the destructive spending plaguing the federal government appears to be what The New York Times does best, which explains its nervous breakdown over President Donald Trump taking scissors to  Washington D.C.’s credit cards.
