Hakeem Jeffries

President Donald Trump, a native of Queens, New York, and a longtime Knicks fan, announced plans to attend an NBA finals game at Madison Square Garden. As expected, Trump’s New York political enemies pounced. But take a look at the resume of Trump’s New York critics. U.S. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.-8) said, “It’s not clear to me that Donald Trump is a big Knicks fan. I mean,…

With a long-awaited finals appearance by the New York Knicks bringing the sports spotlight to New York City, CNN had of course found a way to turn the highlight of the night into a rant about President Donald Trump. Allegedly concerned about the ‘injection’ of Trump into sports, CNN injected their own politics into a non-partisan event in the hopes of getting even a slight hit on Trump. 

Violent protests have been taking place outside of the Delaney Hall ICE detention center in Newark, New Jersey since May 22nd, and through it all, the left wing media has been focused on pushing the narrative that ICE was to blame for the confrontations. Last Friday, ICE Agents were mostly replaced by NJ State Police, and yet the violence has continued, so the media has turned it's attention…

We're almost to the end of April, and the liberals at PolitiFact have still not found one single Democrat utterance that is tagged "Mostly False" or worse in 2026. Instead, they're rushing to defense of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries in the aftermath of the Correspondents Dinner shooting.

While Democrats screeched that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents at airports were just “sitting around doing nothing” and that they might “brutalize or kill” travelers, one of those same “untrained” officers just saved a one-year-old boy’s life. And it’s the second time in recent weeks an ICE agent has saved a child.

Democrats who want to defund Immigration and Customs Enforcement aren’t getting away with the political hostage-taking they’re using to do it. They’re trying to hold the Transportation Security Administration’s funding hostage until their demands for weakening ICE are met. That means they’re also subjecting millions of air travelers to added anxiety, and worse, as security-line wait times…

The hypocrisy of the left in this country, and the lengths to which their enablers in the leftist media will go to push a narrative would be laughable, if it weren't so potentially dangerous. On Sunday's State of the Union, CNN host Dana Bash was interviewing House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, and had him weigh in on a Truth Social post by President Trump, where he called the…

We often accuse the Elitist Media, with a decades-long body of evidence here at the Media Research Center, of conducting themselves in a manner similar to that of progressive activists. On rare occasions, they also act as policy advisors.

David Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, is warning liberals to be careful what they wish for when it comes to the release of the Epstein files. Friday on WMAL, Bozell told afternoon drive host Derek Hunter that despite the elitist media’s obsession with the fake news narrative that the files implicate President Donald Trump, the files could be bad news for liberals.

One big word worth learning is “schadenfreude.” Schadenfreude is “pleasure derived by someone from another person’s misfortune.” Nothing better captures the perverse pleasure that Democrats are deriving from the pain inflicted on our country caused by the government shutdown. Democrats precipitated this shutdown to force Republicans to back off efforts to turn around our suicidal growth of…

Another weekend rolled through, with the elitist media doing their level best to actively avoid covering the biggest political scandal since Watergate: the weaponization of the federal government against Republicans and conservatives known as Operation Arctic Frost. Instead, the Sunday shows ran their clocks out with a mix of off-year election previews and shutdown apologia.

For the late night comedy shows, joking about Democrats in 2025 usually consists of lamenting the party isn’t socialist enough. To help this cause, on Wednesday’s edition of The Daily Show, radio host Charlamagne Tha God swung by Comedy Central to attack party leadership for not enthusiastically falling in behind Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayoral campaign, lament that the party…

It looks like CNBC Squawk Box co-anchor Becky Quick is fed up with the Democrats’ hypocritical nonsense over the ongoing government shutdown.

If this exchange between House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and CBS’s Margaret Brennan is any indication, it would seem that some partisan gerrymandering is more acceptable than others. Ditto for the acceptability of talk of “rigged elections.”
