NPR Helps Democrats Explain How They'll Stop Losing Latino Voters

The Democrats are freaking out at how they didn't dominate the Latino vote as they expected in 2021 (or in 2020, for that matter). So now the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has shared their new minority-engagement plan exclusively with NPR race-beat reporter Juana Summers. How cozy. Summers provided a platform for DCCC chairman Sean Patrick Maloney, a congressman from New York. …

Buckle Up: Here’s the BEST Rittenhouse Meltdowns from Joy Reid’s Show

After Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted on all counts Friday afternoon in his Kenosha, Wisconsin murder trial, the liberal media were apoplectic and despondent over the verdict.

Itching for Defamation Suit: Cuomo Smears Rittenhouse as Out to Kill

CNN’s Chris Cuomo seemed to be itching to catch a defamation suit from innocent Kyle Rittenhouse as he opened his Friday show after the not guilty verdict was handed out, calling him a “chump” filled with “animus” for the people in the Black Lives Matter riot who managed to trick the jury. He even suggested Rittenhouse should have tried to fight off the entire crowd with his fists first and…

MSNBC Melts Down Over Rittenhouse: 'White Supremacist Terrorists' Won

The same network whose reporter was caught stalking the Kyle Rittenhouse case jury yesterday, behaved in the same abominable fashion today after the jury didn’t rule the way they wanted them to. In the hours after the jury found Rittenhouse not guilty on Friday of all the criminal charges the prosecution leveled against him, MSNBC threw a pity party of sorts by inviting radical activists on-…

GoFundMe Tries to Justify Rittenhouse Ban -- AGAIN

GoFundMe bizarrely tried to defend its ban on fundraising for acquitted Kenosha, WI defendant Kyle Rittenhouse. The fundraising platform previously banned fundraisers dedicated to raising money to aid in Kyle Rittenhouse’s legal defense.

CNNer Blames White Privilege, 'Infantilization' for Not Guilty Verdict

While they didn’t spout off in the same unhinged manner as NBC and MSNBC, CNN was similarly displeased with the Kenosha jury finding Kyle Rittenhouse not guilty on all charges on Friday. They reluctantly admitted the defense had a solid argument for self-defense and the prosecution couldn’t breakthrough. But within the first 10 minutes of The Lead, CNN legal analyst Charles Coleman Jr…

On MTP Daily on MSNBC, Joyce Vance, an MSNBC legal analyst and former Obama appointee as a US Attorney, commenting on Kyle Rittenouse's acquittal, says: " this strikes me as an odd situation for self-defense.
