WashPost Columnist Can't Mourn MAD Magazine Without TDS Attack
It is never a good idea to write while suffering from a case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Fake News Reporting on the Fourth of July, the President, and Tanks

The Trump…
MSNBC Wrongly Suggests Trump Tried to Jail All Asylum Seekers
On Wednesday, MSNBC's Jacob Soboroff was again adding to confusion over illegal immigration as he heavily gave the impression that the U.S. Supreme Court had blocked an effort by the Trump administration to keep asylum seekers jailed until their asylum cases are finalized. In fact, as clarified by PBS Newshour's Yamiche Alcindor, the administration was aiming on indefinite detention for asylum…
CBS Skips Good Unemployment News; ABC, PBS Speed-Read It
One reason people can complain about the evening newscasts on the networks is that they are bored with economic data, especially when it makes the Trump administration look good. Once again on Friday night, one of the networks completely skipped a surprisingly good report on jobs. Other networks gave it just a few seconds. NBC offered a full story, with a big But. On screen, it read "JOBS REPORT…
Salon's Marcotte: 'Bigotry' Drove Turnout for Trump's July 4th Speech
Unlike many of her fellow leftists, such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who despite the visual evidence absurdly claimed that the July 4 speech by President Donald Trump was "poorly attended," Salon politics writer Amanda Marcotte admitted the truth about the size of the large crowd.

MSNBC Hails Teacher Union, Warns Betsy DeVos Is 'Hyper-Extreme'
Education and charges of de facto segregation have been causing quite the conversation in the Democratic Party since Kamala Harris and Joe Biden's on-stage fight over busing at the recent Democratic debate.

French Government Assaults Online Free Speech on July 4
French lawmakers rejected the American concept of freedom of speech on July 4 by voting for a “hate speech” ban online. The lower house of French parliament pushed a massive internet regulation bill, which if approved, would launch a 24-hour deadline for Big Tech to remove all posts flagged as “hate speech.” Search engines like Google would be forced to stop linking to the controversial content…
WashPost Tags Delaney as 'Four Pinocchios' Liar, Bernie Sanders Spared
The Washington Post “Fact Checker” squad threw a “Four Pinocchios” flag at a Democrat....so he probably said something liberals don't like. In fact, back-bench presidential candidate John Delaney hyperbolically stated in the first presidential debate that if a “Medicare For All” single-payer health-care system were installed and hospitals were paid at current Medicare rates, “to some extent, we’…
