The public-radio business-news show Marketplace has this ongoing love affair with Janet Yellen, Biden’s new Treasury Secretary.

Amid the Left’s headlong rush to embrace the fascist suppression of all dissent, few of those who are calling for the deplatforming and silencing of those whom they hate and fear have paused to consider the possibility that they, too, could end up being silenced if they fall out of favor with the powerful. The

Media Research Center President Brent Bozell eviscerated CNN on Friday, deriding them for “flat-out lying” about Donald Trump’s rollout of the COVID vaccine.

Bozell called the liberal network out:
The left has an impulse-control problem and it’s getting worse. The dream of putting the nuclear genie back in the bottle and forgetting how to build the bomb began in the 1950s when some of the same scientists who created the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs proposed the elimination of all nuclear weapons. At that time
