Evelyn Farkas is a former Obama administration official who claimed she encouraged congressional staffers to gather as much intelligence on Trump-Russia collusion as they could because she “knew” it was out there and was worried that it would get covered up by the incoming Trump administration.

Good Morning America journalists melted down on Friday as they reported the Justice Department dropping the case against Michael Flynn. Calling it “stunning,” a “bombshell” and “blowing up” the case, ABC worried that “Michael Flynn walks free.” The morning show also skipped over a key point in the case. Reporter Pierre Thomas breathlessly opened the show
Thanks to numerous lockdowns to slow the spread of the coronavirus, millions of Americans are out of work and businesses across the country teeter on the verge of collapse. Even when the economy fully reopens, it may take a while to return to normalcy. One investment expert predicted that it could take as long as
A week ahead of Attorney General William Barr’s decision on Thursday to have the Department of Justice drop their case against former General Michael Flynn, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to announce the innocence of his former National Security Adviser. “What happened to General Michael Flynn, a war hero, should never be allowed to
When the Department of Justice (DOJ) finally dropped the case against General Michael Flynn, a former national security adviser for President Donald Trump, House Democrats slammed the decision as a partisan attempt to “cover up” for Trump — presumably on Russia. While Flynn’s attorney, Sidney Powell, presented evidence suggesting Flynn was “set up by corrupt
CNN continues to label her as a “Republican Strategist” on her CNN profile, still attempting to prop up that suspect label even in the face of this potential conflict of interest. CNN host Jake Tapper asked Navarro in April 2019 about her personal preference for a Democratic presidential candidate. Navarro stated she would vote for
The Ohio House on Wednesday passed a bill stripping the state health director of some emergency powers and limiting stay-at-home orders to 14 days, requiring the approval of the legislature for an extension. Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican who’s been basking in the praise of Democrats for his heavy-handed approach to containing the coronavirus pandemic,
Sounding as though he was reading the talking points his Democratic governor brother handed to him, CNN host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo raged at President Trump during Wednesday’s PrimeTime, and suggested, “[i]ncreasingly, life seems to be getting pretty cheap in America” and questioned if the Trump administration was still interested in saving lives. This from the
Is the cure worse than the disease? Many have dismissed the idea of ending coronavirus lockdowns, claiming that anti-lockdown protesters are heartless, placing the economy above human lives. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-Mich.) has become notorious for stringent lockdowns, which she defends in the name of “science.” Yet the anxiety the coronavirus has caused — including
On Wednesday, the network morning shows gushed over a new fawning Netflix documentary about former First Lady Michelle Obama’s 2018 book tour promoting her memoir, Becoming. The film had only been released on the streaming service for a matter of hours when ABC, NBC, and CBS journalists began urging viewers to go watch the sycophantic
Recently, a lot of reports have been published about the somewhat troubling news that so-called “killer hornets” have been found in Washington state: an Asian breed of hornets that grows to be 2 inches long and that’s famous for completely wiping out beehives. The genocide these hornets love to commit against bees — especially American
On Monday, CNN’s PrimeTime host, congenital liar, and former coronavirus patient Chris “Fredo” Cuomo lectured Americans about daring to leave their homes to get fresh air amid the coronavirus pandemic even though he broke quarantine on April 8. For Tuesday’s show, Fredo was back and up to no good, implying President Trump was comfortable with
California Governor Gavin Newsom must respond in court Wednesday to explain the “science and data” behind his decision to close Orange County beaches. The closures were a result of science all right. Political science. In a fit of pique, Nancy Pelosi’s nephew shut down all 43 miles of Orange County beaches when he fell for
In this time without live sports, the country has been looking for anything possible to fill that void. Similarly, sports media has been looking to find new ways to fill air time. One of the largest ways they have been doing this is by releasing new documentaries, such as ESPN’s The Last Dance. This 10-part
Governor Gavin Newsom held his weekday presser on Monday to bring all listeners up to speed on how we’re beating the Wuhan virus. It was more notable for what Newsom wasn’t asked than what he was. Not one reporter asked California Governor Gavin Newsom at his coronavirus hearing on Monday why he sent state troopers
Just four days after the broadcast network evening newscasts finally covered the rape allegation against presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden for the first time, after ignoring it for over a month, ABC, CBS, and NBC had had enough. During their Monday evening newscasts, none of them ran stories on the subject despite developments still breaking over
It’s hard not shake your head at California officials asking the Trump administration for help after illegal aliens with coronavirus began spilling into hospitals on the US side. Avoiding disease as well as the social and literal costs of supporting millions of noncitizens are among the chief reasons why President Trump won the election and
Liberal billionaire Warren Buffett apparently doesn’t believe that the coronavirus will cripple the might of the U.S. economy in the long-run. A prominent liberal business figure like Buffett voicing such sentiments provides ammunition to President Donald Trump, who also predicted that the economy is “going to make a very strong comeback.” Buffett stated during a
Appearing on Justice with Judge Jeanine on Saturday night, Dr. Debora Birx admitted something that anyone paying attention to the coronavirus pandemic has known for some time now. “I think we underestimated very early on the number of asymptomatic cases,” Dr. Birx said. “And I think we’re really beginning to understand there are people that get
To many, the word Hollywood evokes glamour and dreams of stardom. Perhaps no time in history was that more true than the late 1940s. But the city that birthed silent movies and talkies also had a seedy underbelly. Prostitution rings. Abusive agents, casting directors and motion picture moguls. Mob rackets. Netflix’s new original, Hollywood, which
On Sunday, Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Tom Perez compared presumptive nominee Joe Biden’s Senate documents to the emails former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton kept on a private email server, insisting that there’s no “there” there so stop asking to see the actual documents, okay?! Martha Raddatz, anchor of ABC News’s This Week, noted that Biden
During an appearance on ABC’s This Week, Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel leveled the media by calling out their hypocrisy in blacking out the rape accusation against Joe Biden, while they had tried to eviscerate Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The rebuke was so potent that fill-in host Martha Raddatz appeared unable to make eye contact
The World Health Organization, which worked hand in hand with China to spread disinformation about the coronavirus, says that it’s not its fault if a million people will die because the WHO gave the world “enough time to intervene.” The WHO’s logic is impeccable. Apparently, its leaders think because they declared a “Global Health Emergency”
Susan Page of USA Today joined The 11th Hour host Brian Williams on MSNBC Friday night to discuss the allegations of sexual harassment and assault surrounding Joe Biden and argued that it is a “great unfairness” that Biden is hurt more by such allegations than President Trump because, unlike Trump, Biden is running as a “decent human being.” After
On Friday, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) condemned a Washington Post fact-check video as “CCP propaganda,” covering for the Chinese Communist Party by taking its claims at face value. The video claimed that the best evidence suggests the coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic came from nature, even though the facts in the video itself arguably presented
CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter is the poster anchor for the Heads I Win, Tails You Lose game on the White House briefings. It’s a scandal when they don’t have any, and it’s a scandal when they do. But CNN’s Don Lemon can really argue both sides of the Trump-bashing argument, as a couple
Friday brought protests peppered across the fruited plains, from coast to coast, to voice opposition to the continued closure of small businesses. After all, Walmart and Lowe’s are the new hang out spots and are always crowded and police have not tried to shut them down since the state has deemed them “essential.” But why
On Friday afternoon’s edition of The Daily Briefing with Dana Perino, former DNC boss and Fox News contributor Donna Brazile labored aerobically to avoid saying she believed (or didn believe) Tara Reade’s allegation of sexual assault by Joe Biden in 1993. Perino picked up the line of questioning from (fellow) former Bush press secretary Ari
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker amended his stay-at-home orders to now include the “exercise of religion” as an essential activity. The governor’s action comes a day after a Rockford-area church filed a federal lawsuit saying that the governor’s order violated the free exercise of religion and that his extension of the stay-at-home order was unconstitutional. Other
It finally happened. A liberal outlet got around to saying this was President Donald Trump’s economy, but only because it’s being wrecked by the Wuhan coronavirus. In an April 29, Politico Playbook PM newsletter, which aggregates top headlines, Politico had this disgusting headline take the #2 spot in its list written in all caps: “PRESIDENT
