ABC’s Raddatz Calls Out Blinken Telling Americans to 'Trust' Taliban
As much as they claimed it wasn’t, the Biden administration’s “plan” to get trapped Americans and allies out of Afghanistan was to “trust” the Taliban with their lives.

ABC Slams Biden on Afghanistan—'Adrift From The Facts'

ABC Presses Def. Sec. Austin on Lack of Action to Go Save Americans
A week after the fall of Afghanistan, the response from the Biden administration was floundering as thousands of Americans were still trapped in Kabul and other places in the country.

CBS, NBC Ignore Evidence Biden Was Warned This Would Happen By Embassy
According to a bombshell report from The Wall Street Journal Thursday, the U.S. Embassy in Kabul had sent an urgent cable to the Biden administration in July warning that the chaos we’re now seeing would occur.

Nets SLAM Biden as Failed Leader, Passed ‘Blame’ for Afghan ‘Disaster’

Column: Biden's Wild Murder and Jim Crow Accusations
Liberals boasted that the election of Joe Biden meant a return to sober, restrained presidential rhetoric and an end to unhinged mean tweets.

ABC Panel: Happy Fourth of July, America Sucks!

Siding with Terrorists: Nets Decry Israel Defending Itself from Hamas
Over the years, NewsBusters has extensively documented how the liberal broadcast networks had thrown their support behind terrorist groups that wanted to wipe Israel off the map.
