Political Scandals

MSNBC weekend host and legal contributor Katie Phang joined colleague Joy Reid on Friday’s installment of The ReidOut to declare that "the arc of justice has been crushed" now that Donald Trump will not be getting the hefty sentence on January 10 that progressives like them were hoping for in the New York hush money case.

Well, it turns out we were right when, a year ago to the day in our 2023 most-read blogs list, we said
“2024 is bound to be not only one of the most monumental years in American history.” In 2024, you, our loyal NewsBusters readers, ate up our studies showing the liberal media’s propaganda campaign to save the Biden presidency then Harris’s candidacy and bury any chance of a Trump…

The National Archives has released photographic evidence of then-Vice President Joe Biden meeting with his son's Chinese business partners, yet none of the Big Three evening or morning broadcasts subsequently mentioned the damning new proof that Biden lied when he denied doing any such thing.

ABC News and President-elect Donald Trump reached a $15 million settlement on Saturday after This Week host George Stephanopoulos falsely accused Trump of being found "liable for rape" in the E. Jean Carroll case. 

Hunter Biden is a gift late-night comedians refuse to open.

On Friday afternoon, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre held the first White House briefing in 15 days and the first since President Biden went back on his word of denying he’d pardon his son, Hunter. Needless to say, the press corps came prepared to express their disgust with Jean-Pierre and the President making them look like fools and undermining their aura of respect for the rule of law.…

After months of insisting he would not pardon his son Hunter, President Joe Biden did just that -- as almost anyone other than left-wing cable news legal analysts and Trump-hating late-night comics expected. In doing so, Biden effectively confirmed the Trump “conspiracy theory” of a two-tiered justice system. The pardon covers not only Hunter Biden’s convictions on tax and gun charges but also…

Of all the bad takes on President Joe Biden pardoning his son Hunter, MSNBC host and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart had the worst on Friday’s PBS News Hour. In Capehart’s mind, Biden was justified because Kamala Harris lost and Democrats need “to stop bringing a melon baller to a knife fight.”

Shortly after his mother went on Wednesday’s Fox & Friends in support of his nomination to become defense secretary, Pete Hegseth sat down with Sirius XM host (and fellow former Fox News host) Megyn Kelly for over an hour to discuss in detail the coordinated smear campaign by the liberal media and the Washington establishment that Kelly equated to the despicable character assassination…

On Wednesday, Pete Hegseth’s mother Penelope stepped out from private life into the spotlight for a sit-down on Fox & Friends to lay waste to the “almost criminal” liberal media and specifically “discredit” The New York Times for leaking a 2018 e-mail she had written to her son amid his second divorce but quickly regretted. 

The tire fire inside a dumpster fire that is CNN NewsNight showed within minutes Monday of its nearly 20-minute opening block why it’s an insult to civil discourse as, led by the smarmy host Abby Phillip, conservatives Scott Jennings and former Congressman Scott Taylor (R-VA) were shouted down for calling out the lies and hypocrisy of President Biden for pardoning son Hunter.

CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel were displeased on their Tuesday shows that some people are still criticizing President Joe Biden for pardoning his son, Hunter. For both men, the re-election of Donald Trump makes such criticisms moot.

Former Obama deputy-turned-acting attorney general during the first days of the first Trump Administration, Sally Yates is the poster child of Justice Department politicization. She famously made herself a martyr by forcing Trump to fire her after she ordered the department not to enforce his travel ban order. Still, when Yates traveled over to Comedy Central on Monday, The Daily Show…
