As the crisis in Ukraine escalates, threatening Europe and the world, journalists and media outlets have rightly and consistently highlighted the cruel aggression of former KGB agent Vladimir Putin. However, the same outlets that now showcase the horror of an attempted restoration of the Soviet Union gushed about its glory days as the USSR collapsed

Former Attorney General Bill Barr took his book tour to The Lead with Jake Tapper on CNN on Friday, where Tapper, despite acknowledging that Barr’s assessment of the Russian collusion narrative is correct, wondered if Barr was still helping Vladimir Putin.

Browsing app and search engine DuckDuckGo, formerly a go-to for free speech advocates sick of Big Tech censorship, is now going to downrank sites it deems connected to “Russian disinformation.”

On Friday's New Day, CNN correspondent Alex Marquardt interviewed Luliia Mendel, Ukrainian President Zelensky's former spokeswoman, and asks about her tweet in which she said it would be a "tragedy" if Kamala Harris became president. Mendel said she was referring to Harris' laughing response when she was asked about the Ukrainian refugee crisis. Mendel added that "even if her…

Oh, for the good old days of the Soviet Union. America’s foreign policy and goals were clear then: containment and opposition to communist expansion. Nuclear weapons were a deterrent, but neither side believed the other would use them. Russian President Vladimir Putin has changed the game by threatening to use nukes should the U.S. directly confront his forces now raping Ukraine and committing…

A day after President Biden announced a ban on Russian oil and as gas prices surged to record highs, The Psaki Show featured hardballs Wednesday afternoon on the impact of the Biden economy on consumers. Chiefly, questions from Fox News’s Peter Doocy and Fox Business’s Edward Lawrence led Psaki to struggle to defend the White House’s policies on inflation, gas prices, and a refusal to support…

It was obviously a tough pill -- or shall we say nut -- for Joe Scarborough to swallow. On Wednesday's Morning Joe, the Trump hater par excellence grudgingly admitted that as president, Donald Trump got it right when he chided Angela Merkel over Germany's dependence on Russian oil.

According to MSNBC’s The 11th Hour host Stephanie Ruhle and Washington correspondent Yamiche Alcindor, President Biden took a huge risk on Tuesday when he announced that the U.S. would ban the importation of Russian oil. The risk being that Republicans will say they support the move while also blaming him for high gas prices.

Does biased NewsGuard automatically favor state-affiliated media? The liberal online “credibility” arbiter gave seven traditionally non-autocratic state-affiliated media outlets around the world an average score of 98.6/100.

With the national average for a gallon of gas at $4.25 on and rising rapidly, and President Biden’s decision to ban Russian oil set to make things worse, CNN’s Ana Cabrera was either desperate or foolish to step into the breach during Wednesday’s Newsroom to defend him with oil production numbers from 2020 – aka still the Trump presidency – to claim the U.S. was pumping out enough oil…

On Tuesday, President Biden enacted yet another policy that’s set to send American oil and gas prices to historic and harmful levels for American families. And no matter how much Biden and his pals in the liberal media lie, these skyrocketing prices are his doing. But ABC’s World News Tonight answered the White House’s call for aid as they took toed the administration’s line of…

On Tuesday’s CBS Mornings, co-host and Democratic Party donor Gayle King channeled MSNBC’s ReidOut host Joy Reid by playing the race card concerning the ongoing plight of the millions of Ukrainian refugees, lamenting that those who’ve come to the United States from El Salvador, Haiti, and Honduras “were not welcome” nor “received very well.” In other words, the west has shown its racist bones…

Before President Biden gave a speech on Tuesday announcing the ban of Russian oil imports, the cast of At This Hour on CNN warned that gas prices will go up and that Biden has no good options to fix that problem -- as if his own policies have no impact on the situation.

Prior to Monday’s explosive post-briefing kerfuffle (which NewsBusters was able to obtain from a source), the regularly scheduled Psaki Show featured the return of Doocy Time as the Fox News correspondent battled the press secretary over who or what’s to blame for high gas prices and why there’s been, at best, an apprehension to increased domestic oil and gas production as Russia’s war on…
