On Wednesday afternoon in the 2:00 p.m. Eastern hour, a suspect opened fire outside the Washington D.C. subway system’s Farragut West station on members of the National Guard who were deployed as part of President Trump’s focus on crushing crime in major U.S. cities. We learned less than an hour after news first broke that both National Guardsmen – a male and female from West Virginia – were…

On Monday's Situation Room, House Republican Conference chairwoman Lisa McClain (R-Mich.) fended off CNN hosts Wolf Blitzer and Pamela Brown on the "illegal orders" video and President Trump's comments about "sedition," punishable by death. 

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins displayed some intentional obtuseness on Tuesday’s edition of The Source when she observed that the White House has not attacked Republican veterans’ rebuttal video to Democrats telling the troops to disobey illegal orders from President Trump. Despite the differences between the two videos, Collins falsely said they were “saying the same thing” about the need to…

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel welcomed Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly to his Tuesday show to talk about the firestorm Kelly kicked off when he filmed a video with five other Democrats urging the military to disobey illegal orders from President Trump despite never providing an example of such an order. Naturally, Kimmel didn’t want to focus on that. Instead, the duo claimed that Trump was encouraging violence…

Washington Week with The Atlantic host Jeffrey Goldberg opened Friday’s political roundtable on PBS by setting up a segment on the reckless video issued by Democrats pressuring current military members “to refuse illegal orders” – while leaving the illegal orders supposedly issued by Trump undefined. Goldberg led off by ripping Trump's "unmanaged anger" over the "eminently ignorable"…

MS Now host Jonathan Capehart did not appreciate the idea that certain Democratic politicians making a video urging the military to disobey President Trump was a problem. During PBS News Hour’s Friday weekly news recap, Capehart condemned the American Enterprise Institute’s Matthew Continetti for declaring that “both sides” disgraced themselves with the video because, in his mind,…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough accuses Speaker Mike Johnson, whom he repeatedly calls "Mikey," and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, regarding their statements in response to six Democrat members of Congress telling members of the U.S. military that they can disobey illegal orders, of "lying through their f---ing teeth." 

In its efforts to find every anti-Trump story line it can, the PBS News Hour is touting members of the military who are seeking outside legal advice about whether the missions assigned by the Trump administration are legally justified, starting with the drug-boat bombings.

The obnoxiously liberal Orlando Sentinel newspaper, one of Florida's largest, tried smear-by-association against Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis with an 1,800-word front-page hit job Friday. The headline was unbelievable in its moral blackmail and disinformation: “Ron DeSantis is a veteran. So are 7 inmates he's sending to execution.” It’s the brutal murders the inmates…

Thursday’s edition of PBS’s Amanpour and Company went off the rails when guest host Bianna Golodryga welcomed The Atlantic staff writer David Graham to discuss supposed threats to next year’s midterm elections. The duo would muse about everything from Marines seizing ballot boxes to the idea that the elections will be the fake sort that you get in places like Russia, but no…

MSNBC contributors on Thursday’s Morning Joe couldn’t comprehend why the Trump administration would possibly want to redirect military resources and manpower away from Europe and towards Latin America. The disbelief included insinuations of inviting Russian aggression to reasserting claims of Trump not really addressing the true source of narcotics trafficking.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert mourned on Tuesday’s edition of The Late Show that it will take several years to rebuild democracy after President Trump leaves office. Colbert’s lamentations came as Trump addressed sailors onboard the USS George Washington in Japan, which led him to also express confusion at the idea that the Navy stands ready to sink enemy ships.

Few speak the truth as clearly and succinctly as House Speaker Mike Johnson.

Appearing on ABC’s “This Week” last Sunday, co-host Jonathan Karl challenged the speaker’s calling the recent No King rallies “Hate America Rallies,” calling them “the modern Democratic Party.” Johnson responded that “there is a rise of Marxism in the Democratic Party ... just look what is happening in New…

Let’s hear a loud, soldier’s “HOOAH” for the fight against Mother Nature! At least, that’s what a nutty op-ed from The Hill is suggesting for top brass at the United States military.
