Iran

Terrorist rockets continue to slam into the state of Israel. Yet on Twitter, Palestinians were encouraged to keep “[f]ighting this despotic regime” by the leader of the world’s biggest exporter of terror — Iran. But Twitter removed former President Donald Trump following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol after he called for “peace.” The platform has now turned a blind eye to multiple anti-…

Without someone from the Daily Caller, the Fox News Channel, or Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann in the room, the White House reporters seated for Tuesday’s briefing refused to follow up on Wegmann’s attempt from Monday to ask Press Secretary Jen Psaki about former Secretary of State John Kerry reportedly selling out Israel to his friends in the terrorist-loving Iran.

It was a heck of a way to start a week as the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, NBC, and Spanish-language networks CNN en Español, Telemundo, and Univision completely blacked out the bombshell leaked audio that suggested former Secretary of State John Kerry backstabbed Israel and share secrets with Iran’s terrorist-backing regime.

After a few uneventful White House press briefings, Monday’s episode drew a number of interesting exchanges on the border crisis, the coronavirus pandemic, masking, schools, and President Biden’s Wednesday address to a Joint Session of Congress. And after having been off to get married, Fox News’s Peter Doocy returned with a bang in an exchange on the administration’s continued masking despite…

After years of alleging that former-President Trump and, by extension, the Republican Party where doing the bidding of tyrannical Vladimir Putin, Thursday's edition of CNN Newsroom rolled out the red carpet for propaganda from Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, the leader the group currently fomenting civil war in Yemen commonly known as the Houthis, to express why he and his…

MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell and Hallie Jackson welcomed a "new era" of American foreign policy on MSNBC Live as Anthony Blinken gave his first speech as Secretary of State to the department where he promised to be a different kind of secretary than his Trump-era predecessors.

On Monday, all three network morning shows mourned the death of top Iranian nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, fearing that his killing would make it harder for the incoming Biden administration to appease the brutal authoritarian regime. Hosts and correspondents worried that the event would place Joe Biden in a “very awkward position” while trying to reimplement the disastrous Iran nuclear…

On her MSNBC show on Wednesday, anchor Andrea Mitchell repeatedly whined over the Trump administration still conducting foreign policy after the election, as if that was unusual or improper. She was particularly outraged that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was traveling to the Middle East to push an “anti-Iran” and “pro-Israel” agenda.

For MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell and Jeremy Bash everything is about Russian election interference, even Iranian election interference.  During her Thursday show, Mitchell wasn't buying DNI John Ratcliffe's explanation that Iran was trying to hurt President Trump and cited Senator Chuck Schumer as proof, "Senator Schumer, Jeremy, went on with Rachel Maddow and said he was …

In a late press conference Wednesday night, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe and other members of the intelligence community revealed that Iran and Russia had obtained voter information; with the former using the information to send out malicious and threatening emails to “damage President Trump.” But MSNBC talking head Rachel Maddow took umbrage with the DNI’s assessment,…

In a likely unexpected and unwanted revelation (from the network’s perspective) Wednesday, U.S. National Counterintelligence & Security Center director William Evanina warned NBC Nightly News that foreign adversaries such as “Iran, China, and Russia” were some of the forces “enhancing and exacerbating protests on the West Coast” in recent months. But that information went…

MRC analysts looked at 33 days of ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News programs from August 13 (when Israel and the United Arab Emirates announced they were establishing full diplomatic relations) to September 15 (the joint signing ceremony of the Abraham Accords between Israel-UAE-Bahrain at the White House) and found just brief hiccups of…

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany closed out Wednesday’s briefing with a short yet stinging rebuke of the press corps for having failed to ask a single question about Tuesday’s Abraham Accords, which wouldn’t have been the case if it were brokered and signed during the Obama administration. During the 20 minutes that made up the Q&A portion, there were at least 41 questions from…

In a stunning example of journalistic malpractice Thursday, CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell and chief Homeland Security correspondent Jeff Pegues shared a “new” warning from Microsoft about counties such as Russia, China, and Iran launching cyber-attacks on both presidential campaigns. The problem? These same two spent part of their Wednesday evening newscast being appalled by…
