Oh, What Has Ilhan Omar Said Now? The Nets Don’t Care
Radical Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is at it again. The Democrat on Sunday called the U.S. hypocritical in terms how it deals with Ukrainian refugees vs. countries like Syria and Central America.

Crickets from them as they ignore the potentially embarrassing…
Doocy Boom: Peter Calls Out Biden WH’s Refusal to Back Domestic Energy
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…
Editor’s Pick: Twitchy on NBC Saying Conservative Media = ‘Defcon 1'
On Monday, Twitchy’s Sarah D. reported on NBC News losing its mind over a new conservative Spanish-language network with an absurd online article titled: “‘Defcon 1 moment’: New Spanish-language conservative network fuels fresh Dem fears over disinfo, Latino outreach.” The Twitchy article mocked: “Holy hell. Defcon 1 is the one you really don’t want to be at. Defcon 1 is, like, nuclear war. Is…

‘Outrage’ as Nets Obsess Over ‘Scolding’; Ignoring Border, Hunter
According to CBS and NBC, here’s what matters: Ron DeSantis “scolding” teens for wearing masks. What doesn’t matter? Issues like the many Hunter Biden scandals, the crisis at the border and critical race theory being taught in schools.
Column: NBC Makes Ron DeSantis ‘the Face of Controversy’
In the annals of TV networks manufacturing scandals, one of the lamest examples was Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis telling high school students at an event of his that “you do not have to wear those masks. I mean, please take them off. Honestly, it’s not doing anything, and we’ve got to stop this COVID theater.”
NBC Nightly News tried to make this a story for not just one night, but…
Racist Joy: We Only Care About Ukraine Because They're White
On Monday night's The ReidOut on MSNBC, host Joy Reid used the last segment of her prime-time show to exploit the war in Ukraine in order to play racial politics.

ABC Ignores 'Largest Jump' in Gas Prices in American History!

Fireworks: White House Reporters Squabble Over Press Access
On Monday afternoon after the White House press briefing, the Briefing Room became the site of a contentious and, at times, heated debate about who gets to ask questions and how many as, thanks to longstanding power bestowed on the AP reporter slot, the Q&A portion of the briefing only lasted about 39 minutes.
New York Times Whines GOP ‘Want to Further Gut the IRS,' Cripple ATF
The New York Times again reliably rides to the defense of overbearing federal government agencies. Reporter Glenn Thrush on Saturday defended the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in “A.T.F., Agency Crucial to Biden’s Gun Plan, Struggles to Push for Reform.” He picked on the bureau’s acting director for being civil at a gun industry convention.
