Since NBC News is nothing more than the public relations arm of Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, on Thursday, the Today show welcomed on one of the presumptive Democratic nominee’s biggest supporters to trash President Trump. Of course the network morning show never bothered to tell viewers that its guest, American Federation of Teachers president Randi Weingarten, had endorsed Biden for president. At the top of the program, co-host Hoda Kotb fretted: “Coronavirus and the classroom. The heated debate over how and if schools should reopen....President Trump threatening to cut off funding if that doesn’t happen.” She then hyped how Weingarten...

In possibly the single most predictable move in the long and sordid history of corrupt federal judges in America, District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan’s taxpayer-funded lawyer filed a request today for an en banc hearing before the DC Circuit Court of Appeals. From a story at Law&Crime.com: U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, through his counsel Beth Wilkinson, has asked for U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to rehear his case against the immediate dismissal of the Michael Flynn prosecution. The Thursday petition for rehearing comes after a three-judge panel on the D.C. Circuit granted Flynn’s petition...

CNN host Don Lemon said nobody is perfect, not even Jesus Christ. During a conversation with network host Chris Cuomo on Monday night, Lemon said that much of history taught to children is "propaganda" and revised basic biblical doctrine by saying Jesus, the central figure of Christianity, was "not perfect." "Jesus Christ — if that's who you believe in, Jesus Christ — admittedly, was not perfect when he was here on this Earth," Lemon said. "So, why are we deifying the founders of this country, many of whom owned slaves?" "No one is perfect. Nothing is perfect. Not even the...

Guest Piece by Karen Kataline The Left has sprinted past what we previously thought was a line in the sand between personal freedom and forced, state dictates for personal behavior. The breach of that boundary has led to numerous other fundamental rights crumbling to dust along with our historical monuments. There is still time to restore those boundaries and our rights but only if we start telling the truth en masse and defying unjust edicts from lawless lawmakers. Sadly, we can no longer depend that there will be enough lawful lawmakers to protect our liberties. We must protect them. Coronavirus...

Pray for these debates to happen. – Think about it: If a debate breaks out this fall between Donald Trump, Kanye West and Joe Biden, we are all going to think we must have accidentally ingested a massive amount of peyote. It would be such a wild trip that we absolutely must find a way to make it happen. Kanye West no longer supports President Trump, says Joe Biden not ... This cracked me up, but only because it could be based in reality: James Woods is a national treasure. Your corrupt news media in action. – The New York...

Down goes Lemon! Down goes Lemon! Down goes Lemon! – Holy, cow, this is brutal. Watch as Tucker Carlson absolutely destroys Don Lemon and CNN in 92 short seconds (Transcript follows): Transcript: Carlson: Now, if you’re running a channel like CNN, you want dumb people on the air because they’re compliant. They’ll say what they’re told, they’ll tell the audience what the moment demands, they’ll never stray from the script, and that’s exactly what Mr. Lemon is doing. But just 7 years ago, it was a different country and people were kind of allowed to say what they think. And...

Over the weekend, news outlets replayed the brutal hit, but there’s one thing you won’t learn from their coverage: The driver was black and his victims were white.

Journalist/author Alex Berenson continues to do yeoman’s work in exposing the hypocrisy and true motivations behind the purveyors of Panic Porn related to COVID-19. Today, he discovered a 2006 report co-authored by two of the most notorious panic-mongers, Thomas Inglesby and Jennifer Nuzzo, and took them to task in a brilliant thread on Twitter.

What happens if COVID death rates plummet to the point of no longer being a pandemic threat? The media will turn it on Trump.> Legacy media became predictably hysterical after President Donald Trump’s speech Friday defending American exceptionalism at one of the nation’s most iconic monuments, Mount Rushmore. “We will state the truth in full, without apology: We declare that the United States of America is the most just and exceptional nation ever to exist on Earth,” Trump proclaimed from the South Dakota Black Hills. “We are proud of the face that our country was founded on Judeo-Christian principles, and...

After tweeting out news of his intent to run for the presidency this fall on Sunday, rapper Kanye West sat down for what Steve Forbes says was a 4-hour interview with reporter Randall Lane. In the exhausive interview, West provides all the details about his reasons for running, his views about President Donald Trump and Joe Biden, the fact that he believes he has been chosen by God to lead the country and his belief that a COVID-19 vaccine would be the biblical “Mark of the Beast.” The article on the interview can be found in full at this link....

WINNING ALERT – U.S. job openings exceed “expert” prediction by 1 million, climbing to a new all-time record high. Note the word “unexpectedly” in Bloomberg’s headline. Hilarious: U.S. Job Openings Unexpectedly Increase as Hires Climb to Record People walk down a street lined with outdoor seating for restaurants in the Little Italy neighborhood of New York on July 6. U.S. job openings unexpectedly increased in May as state economies stirred to life and businesses looked to hire anew. The number of available positions rose to 5.4 million during the month from 5 million in April, according to the Labor Department’s...

Can someone please fire Christopher Wray already? Please? – Jeffrey Jensen, the U.S. attorney for Eastern Missouri assigned by AG William Barr to review the DOJ’s despicable conduct of the Mike Flynn frame-up case earlier this year, came through again today with the revelation of more potentially exculpatory documents that had been withheld from Flynn’s lawyers by the FBI. The documents include handwritten notes from both FBI Super-Duper Agent and aspiring Latin Lover Peter Strzok and Deputy Assistant Attorney General Tashina Gauhar related to the January 25, 2017 meeting in which Strzok and fellow FBI agent Joe Pientka attempted to...

Over the past month I have received a number of nasty notes from both acquaintances (I hesitate to use the word ‘friend’ for these people) and non-acquaintances over my consistent characterization of Black Lives Matter being essentially the same as Antifa: A Marxist/Anarchist terrorist organization funded by Soros-backed front groups whose goal is the destruction of America. Black Lives Matter is not, as the corrupt news media continues to contend, any sort of social justice or civil rights organization. You don’t have to take my word for it – all you have to do is visit the group’s website and...

If you read The New York Times, or other liberal publications, and their coverage of President Trump’s of his speech at Mount Rushmore, you’d think a proto-Nazi rally was held. It was “dark and divisive.” It was filled by phantom claims, like left-wing mobs running amok and their campaign to erase our history. It was racist. It was a ‘woke’ review of the speech, which mean it was total garbage. Trump celebrated America, which makes this a rally for white supremacy. This is where we are right now with the Left. They’re violent, unhinged, historically illiterate, and anti-American. It was...

Harvard: America’s most expensive University of Phoenix clone. – Harvard announced on Monday that it will hold no face-to-face undergraduate classes this fall – all “learning” the students accomplish will be done on-line. This plan could also extend through the spring semester of 2021. Oh, but guess what? That $49,000 tuition per semester won’t be commensurately reduced. Oh, no – perish that thought. Think about what Harvard and other universities who take this same politically-motivated approach are about to see happen to them over the next year: Millions of parents who have been either footing the bills or watching their...

Have you noticed how the corrupt news media is not covering the arrest and charging of Ghislaine Maxwell? – Remember when Trump associate Roger Stone was arrested, how the FBI and Mueller goons had notified CNN in advance of the raid on his home? Remember that CNN’s cameras were present when those 39 FBI agents wearing full armor, carrying semi-automatic rifles and backed up by actual tanks pounded Stone’s door in during the wee hours of the morning, took the elderly man into custody frightened his elderly wife half to death? I certainly do. Roger Stone was accused of the...

Members of the American intelligence community have concluded that members of the Russian intelligence unit offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants if they successfully killed members of the American military, the New York Times reported. The problem, however, is that almost everyone involved in this story says it isn't true. The White House, Russia and even the Taliban have said the Times' story is false. According to the anonymous source that spoke to the Times, the Russians intending "to destabilize the West or take revenge on turncoats, had covertly offered rewards for successful attacks last year." The source claimed that President...

“We need new experts. Monkeys throwing crap at a poster with random numbers on it are more accurate.” That’s a quote from a friend when I posted a link on Facebook to the story that Institute for Supply Management (ISM) Non-Manufacturing Index (NMI) rose to 57.1% in June, which naturally was vastly stronger the “experts” quoted by the corrupt news media had anticipated. From that story at PeoplesPunditDaily: Forecasts ranged from a low of 46.0 to a high of 52.7. The consensus forecast was 50.1. This is the largest single-month percentage-point gain since the NMI debut in 1997. Last week,...

It was a quiet July 4 weekend in Chicago… – Only 77 human beings were shot and 14 killed. This is what is known in Chi-town under Mayor Lori Lightfoot as a “lull in the action.” As is always the case, the vast majority of those Americans are black, and some of them were just kids. And Black Lives Matter does not care about them.

A July 2 article began as follows: “A 25-year-old Arlington Heights man is accused of aggravated kidnapping and sexual abuse, among other charges, according to the Arlington Heights Police Department.” In journalism, the leading paragraph is known as the “lede” - with its own distinctive spelling, perhaps to signify how important it is to the process of newswriting. The rule is that it summarizes the most important elements of the article, because, as writers hate to admit but know all too well, not all readers will read the whole thing. The Pyramid Style In journalism class, we are taught the...
