Freshman Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), a member of the so-called “Squad” of far-left House Democrats, triggered a tsunami of backlash Sunday when she said Independence Day is not about celebrating freedom for all Americans. What did Bush say? According to Bush, America is a “stolen land,” black people “aren’t free,” and when people declare that
The vast majority of Americans will spend this Independence Day weekend taking pride in their country as they celebrate the freedoms established by the Founding Fathers. However, there are some journalists who are embarrassed by the USA. Some of them even seem to take pride in actually shaming the country. Over the years, the Media Research
Last month, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s youngest daughter, 23-year-old Michaela Kennedy-Cuomo, came out as “queer” on Instagram. But I guess that didn’t give her enough attention, so this week she had to one-up herself and declare that in addition to being “queer,” she’s also a “demisexual.” What is a demisexual, you ask? Does Demi
On Saturday, Fox News first reported that the Egyptian man who was arrested for stabbing a Boston-area rabbi had overstayed his student visa and was in the United States illegally, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Khaled Awad approached Shlomo Noginski as he was leaving The Shaloh House Jewish Day School on Thursday. He ran
Faith Hill sings “America the Beautiful” at Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa, Fla., in 2009. (Hans Deryk/Reuters) What a much-loved hymn can tell us about our country. As Americans go to church and celebrate their independence on the same day this year, it’s only fitting to talk about a hymn: “America the Beautiful.” We think

The border crisis may not be making headlines every day, but the crisis continues to unfold. Reporters, in fact, briefly spoke with a migrant smuggler this week who revealed why migrants are making the dangerous trek to the United States right now. What did the smuggler say? While reporting from the Rio Grande river in
The Sha’Carri Richardson story tells us far more about social media’s ability to stir racial division than allegedly outdated Olympic drug rules. Richardson, a favorite to win the women’s 100-meter dash at the Tokyo Olympics, is a cause celebre across corporate and social media because she was handed a one-month suspension for a positive marijuana
Hollywood produces a lot of liberal, anti-American films. But, occasionally, filmmakers get things right, offering movies and TV shows that showcase the best about our country. In honor of Independence Day, we at NewsBusters compiled five of the most patriotic movie or TV scenes. Movies such as Red Dawn and Rocky IV captured a time when Hollywood
The Biden White House has regularly patted itself on the back for hiring more women than men and even claims to be a champion of “pay equity,” which Biden calls a “moral imperative.” The annual White House salary report even claims the Biden White House only has a gender pay gap of 1 percent between
Peter Treiber Jr.’s Gorgeous Potato Truck A horribly unpatriotic and deceiving NY Times piece titled “A Fourth of July Symbol of Unity That May No Longer Unite” casts a false narrative around those who love our nation’s beautiful flag. The story begins with Peter Treiber Jr.’s potato truck, which is painted with the stars and
(rozbyshaka/Getty Images) July 4, 1776, is the birthdate of the United States of America. Now, more than ever, it should be celebrated for that, but also as something more: the greatest single day for human liberty in the history of the world. The birthdate of the United States, long settled, is contested today by radicals:
(Jason Reed/Reuters) Politically, it would be difficult to return the job’s focus to foreign affairs, as the Constitution intended. But it would do the nation a lot of good. NRPLUS MEMBER ARTICLE T he American presidency is a deeply weird job: The president’s legitimate constitutional powers and his fundamental responsibilities have overwhelmingly to do with
Mainstream media reporters confronted White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Friday after she deflected questions about the alleged “abusive environment” of Vice President Kamala Harris’ office. What is the background? Harris has become the focus of scrutiny in recent weeks after several reports alleged a toxic environment in her West Wing office. “Harris’ team
Sunday’s Washington Post is marking the Fourth of July by metaphorically miniaturizing the Statue of Liberty to a tiny, hypocritical figurine that sits on a fingertip. The author of this flaming bag of rhetorical feces is Philip Kennicott, the Post‘s perenially dyspeptic art and architecture critic. The headline is “Lady Liberty’s shrinking appeal.” Kennicott’s theme is
(Natural News) While much of the attention surrounding the transgender fad is focused on the ways in which people are destroying their bodies with gender-bending hormones and surgeries, few are paying attention to how the English language is being systematically butchered with the bastardization of “gender pronouns.” Over the past several years, it has suddenly
(Natural News) In the same way the US has overused and abused antibiotics for humans and animals, rendering most of them useless, while creating superbugs that are immune to those antibiotics, the Covid-19 vaccines are creating super-virus “bugs” that vaccinated people are MORE susceptible to catch, transmit to each other, and then die from. Did
(Natural News) The general public should not worry about all the injuries and deaths being caused by Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines” because all of the carnage and destruction is simply “proof” that the injections are working, according to The Guardian. You read that right: The mainstream media is basically now admitting that the serious adverse
(Natural News) In case you haven’t noticed, in the age of COVID-19, our laid-back, ultra-liberal northern neighbor, Canada, is moving steadily toward tyranny, and there are not many people in the country who seem to mind. In recent days, the country’s Liberal Party, which is led by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, has proposed criminalizing certain
(diane39/Getty Images) Today’s historians prize emotion over evidence and fiction over fact. On June 16, I received an email from the American Historical Association (AHA), of which I am a member, trumpeting its “firm opposition” to anti-critical race theory legislation nationwide. Amid our culture of near-omnipresent virtue signaling, wherein businesses and organizations rush to embrace
We’ve heard a lot about the 1776 Commission over the past several months. From the mainstream media, you’ve heard lies and slander: It was a racist panel put together by President Trump to peddle a whitewashed version of American history. In reality, the 1776 Commission was established by President Trump in the fall of 2020
Many concerned parents are asking, “Should children wear masks?” A new scientific study may provide an answer. The newly released study found that kids shouldn’t be forced to wear face masks because they can inhale unacceptable carbon dioxide levels after only three minutes of mask-wearing. The findings, which were were published in The Journal of
The journalists at MSNBC sure know how to celebrate America’s Independence Day, don’t they? It was nine years ago on Thursday that then-MSNBC host Melissa Harris Perry decided to trash the U.S. going into the Fourth of July holiday, reminding everyone of the country’s “imperialism, the genocide, the slavery.” On the eponymous July 1, 2012 program,
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is a total failure. Her city racks up more murders in a weekend than most cities do in a year, and this has been going on for as long as she has been in office. Since the pandemic and the lock downs, things have only gotten worse. And yet, in a
Then-attorney general William Barr in the East Room of the White House in Washington, D.C., April 1, 2019. (Yuri Gripas/Reuters) A new screed about the former AG woefully ignores reality in favor of a cherry-picked narrative of half-truths. Turns out it was a worse week to be writing about a “hatchet man” than to be
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) was quick to blame an apparent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, which was called the “eye of fire” because of the fire that it ignited on the ocean surface, on “corporate greed.” Unfortunately for de Blasio, his scapegoat holds no responsibility for the oil leak.
American track and field star Gwen Berry, who is heading to Tokyo to compete in the hammer throw, came under new scrutiny this week after internet users unearthed problematic tweets involving racist comments and rape “jokes.” What is the background? Berry made headlines last weekend after she protested during the playing of the national anthem
In theory, Vogue magazine is said to be, per Wikipedia, “an American monthly fashion and lifestyle magazine that covers many topics, including fashion, beauty, culture, living, and runway.” As if. The current issue features a glowing portrait of Dr. Jill Biden — aka the First Lady of the United States. Biden graces the cover, glamorously posed on what
As my PJ Media colleague Kevin Downey Jr. recently wrote, “White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told the mother of all whoppers when she said, “Republicans voted to defund the police.” It was a bizarre claim by Psaki, easily belied by the facts. As Kevin noted, “even the Washington Post knows the Democrats were behind defunding
