Trump Pouts on Colbert Cartoon Show: Mueller 'Wants to Lock Me Up'

A government shutdown is caused by President Trump’s inability to focus on the budget resolution bill in the March 25 episode of Our Cartoon President on Showtime. Stephen Colbert’s lame weekly animated attack on President Trump and his administration is quickly running out of steam.

Jeff Greenfield Compares Trump to Hollywood Movie Fascist President

Jeff Greenfield wrote an article in the March 25 Politico Magazine about the time Hollywood produced a movie about an American president who became a fascist. So how long do you think it was before the inevitable name of Trump appeared? Well, you didn't even have to wait to begin reading the article, The Hollywood Hit Movie That Urged FDR to Become a Fascist, because you had this in the subtitle…

USA Today Clings to Gun-Control March's False 800K Crowd-Size Claim

The promoters of Saturday's March For Our Lives claimed that 800,000 attended the DC event. No one believes that — except USA Today, which was clinging to that inflated figure Sunday afternoon, well after more sober observers estimated a 75 percent smaller turnout.

NYT Finds ‘March’ It Can Devote Enormous Coverage to: An Anti-Gun One

Sunday’s New York Times lead story on the multiple rallies of anti-gun kids was reported by Michael Shear and a teeming throng of at least 19 other reporters around the world: “With Passion and Fury, Students March on Guns – Rebuke of N.R.A. by Huge Crowds Across U.S.” This would be the anti-gun March for Our Lives, not the pro-life March for Life, which the Times virtually ignores every year.…

MSNBC Smears NRA as Using Black Rapper to Make Whites Scared of Blacks

On Sunday's AM Joy, host Joy Reid and her panel were again hating on the NRA, this time smearing the pro-gun group with a conspiracy theory that it recently had black rapper Killer Mike -- who notably supported Bernie Sanders for President -- as a guest for the purpose of scaring members to become afraid of blacks and therefore to buy more guns. Frequent guest Michelle Bernard -- who has been an…

WSJ's Strassel on Russia NRA 'Infiltration': Consider the Fake Sources

Someone is finally crying foul over an evidence-free fake-news effort pushed by the same people who have promoted the Steele dossier for over a year. This time, the targets are the NRA and President Trump's 2016 victorious presidential campaign. In a Thursday Wall Street Journal column and a Friday Fox News appearance, Kimberley Strassel decried how the press has turned "the most outlandish…

NBC’s Todd Hails Gun Control March as One ‘Our Town Remembers’

Towards the end of Sunday’s Meet the Press, NBC moderator Chuck Todd set aside some time for the largely liberal panel to fawn over the so-called March for Our Lives gun control rally which was held in Washington, D.C. the day before. Not only did he allow the panel to heap praise on the gun control pushing kids, but he compared the march to the civil rights movement and the tea party rallies. He…

CNN's Burnett Frets Over Pro-Gun Guest Pushing to Arm Teachers

On Saturday night, during special coverage of the anti-gun March for Our Lives rally on CNN, host Erin Burnett displayed a classic example of the media double standard on guns in which a guest who supports gun rights gets debated on the issue, but guests who support more control have their liberal views unchallenged or even further pressed from the left.

ABC, NBC Glorify Gun Control Rally, Wonder Where 'Movement' Could Go

The Sunday morning after the so-called March for Our Lives rally where hundreds of thousands of anti-gun kids parroted liberal chants and slogans, the liberal network news outlets of ABC and NBC were eager to throw heaps of praise on them. It was the first story that they got to that morning and each one of them was focused on where the “movement” was going and what change they could possibly…

Stephen A. Says Drunk QBs Valued More than Kaepernick

On ESPN's First Take talk show Friday, Will Cain asked Stephen A. Smith who will be signed first as an NFL quarterback: Johnny Manziel or Colin Kaepernick. Smith picked Manziel and said that after all the damage Kaepernick has done to himself and the league, drunks could be signed before him. Co-host Max Kellerman argued that the prevailing opposition to Kaepernick by "old white men" could shift…

Liberals Upset at 'Deep State' Beliefs Could Blame... Hollywood

A new poll from Monmouth University found most Americans aren’t very familiar with the term “deep state.” But when the term is described as “a group of unelected government and military officials who secretly manipulate or direct national policy,” nearly three out of four (74%) say they believe this type of apparatus exists in Washington. The pollsters note that more than 7 in 10 Americans polled…

NYT's Hulse Hauls Harry Reid Out of Retirement to Bash GOP, Skips Lies

The infamously Democrat-friendly New York Times congressional reporter Carl Hulse visited retired Sen. Harry Reid for a friendly debriefing. Hulse let the deeply partisan Reid conveniently lay in against his former Republican colleagues and President Trump, with no opposition, in “Senator’s Farewell: ‘I Just Shake My Head.'”

NPR Lets David Hogg Slam Opponents as Old People Dying Off

NPR Weekend Edition Saturday welcomed Parkland student leftist David Hogg for an interview, and host Scott Simon offered the typical "how are you coping" and "do you have time to be a teenager" softballs. But when he teed up Hogg to say something political, Hogg was obnoxious.

MSNBC Lets Kasky Slam NRA: 'They Love Sandy Hook' Where People 'Forgot

In a pre-recorded interview, MSNBC host Joy Reid gave gun control activist Cameron Kasky an unchallenged forum to suggest that the NRA "loves" school shootings like Sandy Hook and Columbine, and also left the impression that background checks might have stopped Columbine even though three people broke the law to supply Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold with the guns they used in the 1999 attack.
