To many, this is seen as nothing more than a teachers’ strike and power grab executed by a union that historically supports Democrat politicians. Democrats send federal aid to the union, and the union then uses it…

Billionaire George Soros said he is working to “bend” the arc of history “in the right direction.” In Soros’ case, that direction is far to the left. To do it, he donated over $32 billion to his Open Society Foundations since 1984, to further leftist ideology and activism well beyond his own lifetime.

Filling in for boss Tim Graham, NewsBusters deputy managing editor Nick “Night Train” Fondacaro and I were back in our saddles for Monday’s post-Christmas edition of the NewsBusters Podcast and, while it’s often a slower time of the year in the news business, we still had plenty to talk about.

Longtime CBS reporter and chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford went viral on Sunday and Monday on social media following comments meant to air on Sunday’s Face the Nation that slammed our elected officials and public health experts for “the crushing impact that our COVID policies have had on young kids and children” and the subsequent mental health crisis. However, CBS News kept her…

During a special episode of Meet the Press on Sunday titled “Schools, America, and Race”, 1619 Project author Nikole Hannah-Jones said, “I don't really understand this idea that parents should decide what's being taught.”

On Wednesday's New Day, CNN brought on race-obsessed New York Times Magazine reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones to work with the conservative and Republican-hating network to twist reports of Republicans pushing to remove controversial books from school libraries in Texas.
