The New York Times is concerned about media censorship and bias — in Serbia. “Eastern Europe Tests New Forms of Media Censorship,” by Andrew Higgins from Belgrade, appeared in Monday’s paper and it was both ironic and rich to see the Times devote 1,500 words to a story of how governments in Serbia, Poland, and Hungary
Republican Rep.

Martin Luther King birthday celebrations could be unifying, but that’s not how media liberals use it. It’s just another occasion to trash Republicans as “Jim Crow” racists trying to keep blacks from voting and laboring to stop school kids from learning anything about MLK. What a sorry set of smears.

“Quit being a whiny party” is Democrat consultant James Carville’s advice to his own people, just before telling Meet the Press host Chuck Todd on Sunday that tigers should change their stripes and that VodkaPundit can quit drinking any time he wants to.

While Democrats had hoped to change the filibuster rules so that they could ram election-related legislation through the U.S. Senate, they have been unable to do so because some Democratic senators will not support targeting the filibuster. But during a speech on Monday, Democratic Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser said that the situation would not
On Monday night, the CBS Evening News gave their best effort to carry water for the Democratic Party in their ongoing campaign to exploit the memory of Martin Luther King Jr. in order to pass their federal takeover of state election systems.

There’s a trick Democrats use to get their way, even when they don’t have the necessary popular support or legislative authority. I first caught on to the trick back when Barry Obama was in the White House. At the very beginning of his first term, Democrats briefly held a supermajority in Congress (the stuff of
It’s quite a thing for most Americans, many of who take their extensive freedoms for granted — even as woke politicians and violent leftists have been working hard to snuff them out — to witness someone from another country come to the United States and fall in love with it.

Ted Koppel, the legendary newsman and longtime host of ABC’s “Nightline,” has made headlines in recent years with his comments about left-wing media bias, and the left-wing media don’t want to hear it.

After years of being accused of abuse, harassment and misconduct by scores of women, of racism by Black actor Ray Fisher, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tried to defend himself in a spectacular debacle of an interview published Monday in New York magazine.

Historically speaking, the Democratic Party generally has an advantage with party identification in the United States. 2021 was no exception to this rule, as slightly more adults identified as ‘Democrat’ or ‘lean Democratic’ (46%) than identified as ‘Republican’ or ‘lean Republican’ (43%), according to Gallup. But that may not last long. Gallup has been surveying U.S.
Michael Todd, the leader of a Tulsa megachurch, sparked intense backlash after a viral clip showed him smearing spit on a person’s face during a sermon illustration on Sunday.

Imagine you’re a White House staffer, or even Joe Biden himself. Suffering from a serious case of bad political news, you decide to tune into CNN’s New Day, assured of some chicken soup for the soul. But, wait a second! They’re talking of Democrats “panicked” over Biden’s “abysmal, spectacular, failures.” They’re rolling an SNL clip
In an article last February headlined “Do Facebook, Twitter and YouTube censor conservatives? Claims ‘not supported by the facts,’ new research says,” USA Today‘s Jessica Guynn wrote, “Despite repeated charges of anti-conservative bias from former President Donald Trump and other GOP critics, Facebook, Twitter and Google’s YouTube are not slanted against right-leaning users, a new

A new poll from the Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports surveyed 1,016 U.S. “likely voters” on Jan. 5.

The survey found that Republican and Democrat voters have completely polar opposite
Civil rights leader Bob Woodson railed against progressives who he accused of “hijacking” the 1960s movement that he was heavily involved in and helped coordinate national and local community revitalization programs. “The Ingraham Angle” guest host Raymond Arroyo kicked off the interview by playing a video clip of Vice President Kamala Harris speaking with actress
Many, including some prominent Democrats, have criticized Joe Biden’s inflammatory speech this past week in Atlanta in which he accused those who oppose undoing the Senate’s filibuster rules to push through his federal takeover of elections as being on the side of George Wallace, Bull Connor, and Jefferson Davis. So it’s no surprise that MNSBC
During his recent speech in Atlanta on voting rights, Biden likened those who oppose his agenda to George Wallace, Bull Connor, and Jefferson Davis. “At consequential moments in history, they present a choice: Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace?

For his reliably liberal Reliable Sources program, Brian Stelter brought on former Clinton press secretary Joe Lockhart (wearing his Tom Brokaw glasses) to argue that somehow, the is “failing” to treat Joe Biden fairly.
