Bernie: You Think I'm Radical? 'Read What the Pope Is Writing'

What does it say about Bernie Sanders--and the Pope--that when it comes to economics, Sanders sees Pope Francis as more "radical" than he is? Appearing on today's Morning Joe, Sanders discussed the news that he has been invited to visit the Vatican. Sanders mentioned that [other than on social issues] he is a "big, big fan of the Pope." Said Sanders: "people think Bernie Sanders is radical. Uh-…

Kelly File Points Out Media’s Double Standard in Presidential Gaffes

Today the media gently laughed at Clinton’s multiple attempts at swiping her Metrocard to enter the subway system in New York City, but generally excused the mishap as something that happens “to the best of us.” Bernie Sanders was bashed by the New York Daily News for not knowing that the subway system requires fare cards, not tokens, but his gaffe was also largely a non-issue for the rest of the…

NBC, CBS Can’t Stop Comparing Democrat Fight to GOP ‘Nastiness’

'End of Days' for Hillary Campaign?

"At the end of the day" has been voted the most irritating, hackneyed expression in the English language. If once in a while it slips into our speech, no big whoop. But in her interview on With All Due Respect today, when Hillary's political director, Amanda Renteria, used the expression twice in her very first answer, it caught this NewsBuster's attention. And so I found myself counting. Three…

CNN's Toobin Calls Cruz 'New York Values' Comment 'Anti-Semitic'

On Thursday’s The Situation Room, CNN Legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin slammed Ted Cruz’s comments about “New York values” as a “derogatory term” about Jews which amounted to nothing more than an “old-fashioned” “anti-semitic trope” from "a hundred years" ago: "He said New York values are about money and they're about the media. That's an anti-semitic trope from a hundred years. It's been around a…
