CNBC Rates 'Best States to Live': Pro-Abortion, Anti-Gun, 'Inclusive'
CNBC sounds like a business channel, but it’s really just another liberal channel. When it thinks about the best “states for business,” they’re matching that with what they call “quality of life.” Some measures – health care, crime – make nonpartisan sense, but CNBC adds grades for “inclusiveness,” “protections” against discrimination, anti-gun "reforms," and naturally, “reproductive rights…

Jake Tapper Lets Rosie Say Trump's a Fascist Criminal About to Expire

Worse yet, Tapper egged her on as she insisted Trump is dramatic cognitive decline.

Joe Scarborough phoned in to today's edition of The Weekend on MS NOW to share remembrances of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who passed away suddenly Saturday at age 71.

MS NOW: Reflecting Pool Arrests Are 'Criminalization of Ordinary Life'
The left’s response to President Trump has involved tearing up anything even remotely connected to him. From firebombing Teslas to ripping down Trump’s name on the Kennedy Center, the rule still stands: if the orange man touched it, they hate it.
