Donald Trump

We thought we had seen it all with the astronomically stupid media takes surrounding Elon Musk and DOGE cutting up the federal government’s credit cards, but lefty magazine The New Republic just potentially one-upped them all. 

It's natural that "independent fact checkers" would pounce on State of the Union speeches. But it depends on who's president. PolitiFact socked Trump with six "False" ratings and three "Mostly False" for his 2025 speech. But a year ago with President Biden, PolitiFact never ruled Biden was "false"...on anything. They'd say "exaggerated," or "this needs context," or "this merits asterisks." Too…

Being on the West Coast, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel had the ability to react to President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on his Tuesday show. Naturally, Kimmel’s reaction included plenty of insults directed Trump’s way, but he also suggested Speaker Mike Johnson got an erection when he kicked Rep. Al Green out of the chamber for disruptive behavior.

Needless to say, ABC, CBS, and NBC offered far different reactions Tuesday night to President Trump’s address to Congress (think State of the Union, but not granted that title in a president’s first year) than they did in immediately celebrating last year’s partisan State of the Union from Joe Biden. For 2025, they were more lackadaisical in their disdain for Trump’s “intensely partisan” “…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert stayed up for a live show on what turned out to be Wednesday morning after President Donald Trump’s address to Congress. Colbert spent his monologue praising Rep. Al Green for getting kicked out of the House chamber and attacking Trump on everything from transgender issues to shipbuilding. Later, he would welcome former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to wonder, “…

On Morning Joe, responding to President Trump in his Joint Address to Congress having called Joe Biden "the worst president in American history," Joe Scarborough says: "I'm quite confident that ten, 20 years from now, when they're ranking presidents, Joe Biden will be doing very well."

MSNBC wound down its A-team portion of their coverage of President Trump’s address before a joint session of Congress with a bemoaning of displaced federal workers. This display was unlike any other, and revealed quite a bit about MSNBC and our progressive commentariat.

The initial reaction to President Donald Trump’s Joint Address to Congress at MSNBC centered around outrage at the fact that Trump would dare to honor D.J. Daniel, the 13-year-old pediatric cancer patient who was deputized as a honorary Secret Service agent. Their bilious reaction to that heartwarming moment is the truest indicator of how the night really went for them.

You know Tuesday night’s address to the Joint Session of Congress was a good night for President Trump because the liberal media didn’t have much in terms of rage-fueled declarations against it. In fact, Republican Scott Jennings managed to get his CNN colleague and former Obama advisor David Axelrod to admit that his fellow Democrats were the ones who looked bad at the end of the night.

With President Trump set to address a Joint Session of Congress later Tuesday night, the loony liberal ladies of ABC News’s The View racked their brains for ways their fellow Democrats could protest, make a scene, and disrupt the event. Their ideas ranged from not showing up to walking out to one insane suggestion that the Democrats “get butt naked and dance around” the floor.

CBS chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett showed off his dismay with the second Trump administration on Tuesday’s CBS Mornings by painting it in apocalyptic terms as “revolutionary” in nearly every sense of the word and “not collegial” and “unremittingly hostile to the established, stable order” that’s kept America and the world safe and secure. Some doomcasting and fear porn…

On Monday morning, Fox's Bill Hemmer covered the phenomenal success that the Donald Trump administration has had in cutting the number of illegal border crossings to record low levels.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt appeared Sunday on the Fox News Channel’s MediaBuzz and debated host Howard Kurtz on a slew of subjects over two segments, including the Associated Press hubbub over its ban from the press pool (the smaller, rotating group of journalists that follow the President to smaller events and on Air Force One) and the press shop taking over the…

Christiane Amanpour is an international affairs correspondent, but for Friday’s PBS edition of Amanpour, she interviewed playwright Joe Murphy and actor Stephen Kunken at the Soho Place theatre in London, where the climate change message play Kyoto, cowritten by Murphy and starring Kunken, is being performed. Amanpour, who surely considers herself an intellectual, sounded like any…
