Fox News host Tucker Carlson has blasted America's mainstream media and says it has sunk to a new low with its 'disgusting, corrupting love affair' with President Joe Biden. Carlson also criticized the media's positive take on Biden's relationship with his wife Jill and the lack of coverage regarding first son Hunter Biden's sex scandals and history of drug problems. The host opened his show Tucker Carlson Tonight on Tuesday with the argument that the mainstream media was 'our most corrupt institution' and accused the journalists working at those outlets of telling 'outlandish' lies every day.

CNN has allegedly reinstated a ban on host Chris Cuomo interviewing his brother, Andrew, despite allowing the New York governor to appear on his show more than ten times last year. The network was questioned by the Washington Post on Tuesday after Chris, 50, failed to mention his 63-yar-old brother while addressing the biggest stories related to COVID-19 on his show the previous night. The host's silence came just hours after the governor had finally addressed in a press conference the latest scandal surrounding his handling of the data involving COVID-19 deaths in the state's nursing homes.

President Macron of France has now warned his countrymen of the menace of American academic and media “woke” thinking and of identity politics as a formula for social oppression and disunity. France is officially focused entirely on the integration of its entire population into a cosmopolitan French whole, and in a peculiar arc of alliance between nationalist academics, intellectuals, and conservative politicians, all are warning against the importation of what they regard as degenerate and self-destructive American academic faddishness. France has been warned by its leaders from Right to Left to beware of what is effectively referred to as the...

On Wednesday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) took a swipe at Texas political leaders, propounding that the suffering Texans are experiencing because of the freezing cold and concomitant power outages could have been addressed by her “Green New Deal.” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, “The infrastructure failures in Texas are quite literally what happens when you *don’t* pursue a Green New Deal. Weak on sweeping next-gen public infrastructure investments, little focus on equity so communities are left behind, climate deniers in leadership so they don’t long prep for disaster. We need to help people *now.* Long-term we must realize these are the consequences of...

I’m sure by now that you’ve heard of the awful, historic snow and ice storms experienced in the state of Texas over the past few days. The issues that have arisen as a result of the storm bring into light a number of extremely concerning issues around the push for “green energy” that you hear Democrats talk about incessantly. According to the Washington Examiner, former Energy Secretary under President Donald Trump and former Texas governor, Mr. Rick Perry, issued a dire warning about green energy after the catastrophe in Texas this week. “They don’t care about your lives in those...

Minutes after the death of Rush Limbaugh was announced, CNBC ran a headline referring to the talk show legend as “incendiary.” The headline read, “Rush Limbaugh, the incendiary radio talk show host, dies at age 70.

A group of Californians who've had enough of Gov. Gavin Newsom say they have the 1.5 million signatures needed to force a recall election, and believe they will eventually have 2 million. But, we probably won't know until after the March 17 submission deadline if there are enough valid signatures. For Newsom, the waiting must be uncomfortable. But give him credit. He's not resting under quarantine. He's launched a "permanent campaign," a strategy developed by Pat Caddell, the political adviser who told President-elect Jimmy Carter that "governing with public approval requires" elected officials to perpetually be running for office. Longtime...

Radio talk show legend Rush Limbaugh passes away after a year-long battle with stage four lung cancer. His wife, Kathyrn Limbaugh, made the announcement during his radio show Wednesday morning.The Rush Limbaugh Show started in 1988 and became the most listened to radio show in the U.S. The conservative radio show host was a pioneer in the industry and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Trump in 2020.

“Laura and I are sorry to learn that Rush Limbaugh has passed away. A son of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, Rush rose as a pioneer of talk radio starting in the 1980s, and was a friend throughout my Presidency,” Bush said in a statement. “While he was brash, at times controversial, and always opinionated, he spoke his mind as a voice for millions of Americans and approached each day with gusto,” the former president added. “Rush Limbaugh was an indomitable spirit with a big heart, and he will be missed.” {snip}

On this date in 1524, the French aristocrat Jean de Poitiers, Seigneur de Saint Vallier lay his head on a chopping-block. He kept it there for a full hour, but the headsman never swung the blade — and Jean de Poitiers walked away with a royal clemency. This lucky Seigneur had been caught up in an English- and Habsburg-backed plot by the Constable of France to break off a chunk of France. (Said Constable fled to Charles V.) Jean de Poitiers skated on noblesse oblige and lesser culpability, but there’s a scurrilous story that he was heard thanking God as...

What motivated the lethal rocket attack on Monday against a U.S. military and intelligence operations base in Erbil, Iraq? Iran is testing whether or not the Biden administration will hold it responsible for its aggression. Early indications suggest that the Biden administration, at least from a U.S. interest point of view, has failed the test. One American contractor was killed in the attack, and five others, including at least one U.S. service member, were wounded. But Iran isn't trying too hard to hide its responsibility. After all, the attack in Iraqi Kurdistan was claimed by an organization called Saraya Awliya...

Governor Tony Evers (D, WI) delivered a virtual budget address to the state legislature on Tuesday that was sharply criticized by Republican leaders as irresponsible. In the budget proposal, Evers includes a partial repeal of Act 10, legalization of marijuana, and over $1 billion in new taxes. The governor’s budget is largely seen as a liberal wish list rather than a serious proposal. Republicans, who control both houses of the legislature by comfortable margins, will likely reject the governor’s budget and write their own version just like they did two years ago. “The governor’s budget is completely irresponsible and unrealistic....

Hollywood star and climate change activist Matt Damon reportedly took a private jet to film parts of the Marvel movie Thor: Love and Thunder in Australia, flying from Byron Bay in the northern part of New South Wales to Sydney on Sunday. Matt Damon shared a private jet with co-star Chris Hemsworth and members of their entourage, according to a report from the Daily Mail, which ran photos of the stars disembarking from the aircraft. It remains unclear what Damon and Hemsworth were doing in Byron Bay, but they are expected to shoot scenes at Fox Studios Australia, located in...

How quickly the news cycle churns. Four months ago, Ruth Bader Ginsburg had just passed, President Donald Trump was angling to replace her with Amy Coney Barrett, and liberal pundits who had spent the past four years warning about norms violations were sighing and saying actually the only way forward was for Joe Biden to pack the Supreme Court. In response, Biden pledged to appoint a commission to explore the issue—and then promptly forgot all about it. Bloomberg reports today on the expectations for that neglected group:

Every state that claims that by ‘auditing’ a couple of machines and running a few ballots through these machines, that election results can be confirmed as valid, are lying. They will never be able to confirm an election’s validity using this approach.A reader shared this with us.

Nothing has been done to address these ballots from the 2020 election and we asked why.HUGE!

PALM BEACH, Fla. — Rush Limbaugh, the talk radio host who ripped into liberals and laid waste to political correctness with a merry brand of malice that made him one of the most powerful voices on the American right, influencing the rightward push of conservatism and the rise of Donald Trump, died Wednesday. He was 70. Limbaugh said a year ago that he had lung cancer. His death was announced on his show by his wife, Kathryn. Unflinchingly conservative, wildly partisan, bombastically self-promoting and larger than life, Limbaugh galvanized listeners for more than 30 years with his talent for vituperation...
