Barack Obama

On MSNBC before the start of Wednesday night's proceedings for the all-virtual Democratic National Convention, co-hosts Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, Nicolle Wallace informed viewers that the DNC should make “anyone who cares about America...feel extremely proud” of their “potential” and “vision” for the country that, in 2008, elected a “unicorn” in Barack Obama and can now elected a woman as vice…

The first two nights of the Democratic National Convention were snooze fests. So, ABC’s World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News were on a mission to hype night three, which would feature Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), two-time presidential failure Hillary Clinton, and former President Barack Obama. Of course, it was the latter that had the networks excited, with both touting how…

“Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f**k things up.”

That less than enthusiastic assessment of the presumed Democrat presidential nominee, Joe Biden, was made by former President Barack Obama according to a Democrat who was quoted in Friday's Politico. In fact that is but one of many examples cited that revealed Obama's disdain, bordering on contempt, for Biden's candidacy starting…

When even Obama’s former speechwriter has to come out and tell the media they’re downplaying how radical Kamala Harris is, it’s pretty bad. But that’s exactly what happened during the Obama alumni podcast, Pod Save America Thursday. Former speechwriter and co-host Jon Favreau mocked the media’s characterization of Harris’s politics while taking glee in the idea that progressives were…

On Friday’s New Day, CNN co-host John Berman brought on anchor and chief national security correspondent Jim Sciutto to continue the long tradition of media leftists colluding with Democrat campaigns. Sciutto, a former Obama administration official, hyped his new book, The Madman Theory: Trump Takes on the World, which he is conveniently releasing 88 days before the election…

Traditionally, funerals are supposed to serve at least three purposes: honor the life of the deceased, comfort those who mourn his passing and preach a message about eternity and the brevity of life. Tradition was discarded during John Lewis' funeral last week in Atlanta. Like the memorial service of the late Sen. Paul Wellstone (D-MN) in 2002, the Lewis service was a political event that…

On Monday’s New Day, CNN guest host Erica Hill played senior political analyst John Avlon’s “reality check” segment to attack President Trump for wanting to dismantle ObamaCare. Ignoring Democratic lies that sold the law and the general failure of the policy, Avlon had the gall to accuse President Trump of lying about health care and trying to repeal ObamaCare for political gain, “no…

On Friday's Cuomo Prime Time, CNN host Chris Cuomo cued up his guest, South Carolina Democratic Congressman Jim Clyburn, to react to former President Barack Obama comparing President Donald Trump to 1960s segregationists. After Clyburn likened Trump to those who were behind the beating of Civil Rights icon John Lewis and peaceful protesters in 1965, Cuomo provocatively asked his guest…

Media praise of former President Obama's eulogy at John Lewis' funeral continued on Friday's CNN Newsroom as senior political analyst David Gergen contrasted the upcoming election as between Obama's purported pro-American elegance with Trump's alleged "dystopian" view of the world. 

Think back to when you last went to a funeral, do you remember speakers at that solemn service giving political speeches, talking about ending the filibuster? I sure don’t, but apparently that is fair game for Barack Obama. MSNBC's Morning Joe touted a variety of clips Friday morning of the former president exploiting what was supposed to be a funeral for Congressman John Lewis, using…

After former President Obama gave a partisan eulogy at John Lewis' funeral on Thursday where he compared President Trump and federal law enforcement to George Wallace and called for the end of the filibuster, among other things, the Washington Post's Jonathan Capehart praised him for telling Americans what they can do to honor Lewis and the country.

On Thursday night, President Obama’s adoring fans at MSNBC predictably hailed his politically-charged eulogy for Congressman John Lewis to attack President Trump. Obama-loving Last Word host Lawrence O’Donnell yearned for the days of the Obama presidency with radical author Zerlina Maxwell.

Thursday’s ReidOut served as yet another performance in the theater of the absurd with host Joy Reid calling “globally-respected” former President Barack Obama “Batman” who emerged at the funeral of Congressman John Lewis (D-GA) to give “a treatise on American democracy, a rousing call to arms” against the “Joker.” To further play up the Joke analogy, Reid bemoaned Trump for…

Throughout special coverage of the funeral for Congressman John Lewis on Thursday, the Democratic Party hacks at NBC News repeatedly used the solemn occasion to campaign against President Trump and cheer former President Obama exploiting the church service to similarly hurl partisan blows at the White House.
