Last night, after a 16-day blackout, Twitter finally relented and released the NY Post’s account from ‘Twitter jail’, punishment for the paper’s work publishing stories about Hunter Biden’s financial dealings in Ukraine and China. Some of the emails clearly contradicted Hunter Biden father’s claims that he had never discussed business with his son. On the contrary, it was later revealed, Joe Biden was “the big man”, a “Godfather”-like figure overseeing the business dealings of his son, and his brother, Jim Biden, from a relatively safe distance. As former Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski affirmed, the Bidens saw Hunter’s dealings abroad...

An ABC affiliate in Philadelphia reportedly declined to air a Restoration PAC ad focusing on the Biden family corruption in the final week leading to the election, Breitbart News has learned. This week, Restoration PAC, which has spent millions on advertising in battleground states such as Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota in this election cycle, announced a nearly $1 million ad blitz in Pennsylvania in the final stretch of the election. The 30-second spot focuses primarily on Biden’s claim that he has “never spoken” to Hunter Biden about Hunter’s overseas business dealings. The ad began airing in Philadelphia markets on...

Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that Republicans would “regret” confirming Amy Coney Barrett as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “Rahm, Amy Coney Barrett is now Justice Barrett having been officially sworn in as the newest Supreme Court justice after what many Democrats are calling an illegitimate process. Minority Leader Schumer is saying Republicans will regret her confirmation. Do you think they will?”

A surge in coronavirus cases has damaged Donald Trump’s re-election campaign in Wisconsin, with growing criticism of his work on the pandemic and preference for Joe Biden to handle it. Biden holds a slighter advantage in Michigan, with sizable leads among women, moderates and independents in ABC News/Washington Post polls in both states. Biden leads Trump by 57-40 percent among likely voters in Wisconsin, a state that’s now reported to be third in the nation in per capita COVID-19 cases, with a 53 percent increase in average daily cases in the past two weeks, a record number of hospitalizations and...

Co-host and network legal analyst Sunny Hostin said on Tuesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View” now that the Republican-controlled Senate voted to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett, the Supreme Court no longer reflected the values of America. Hostin said, “I think her appointment is really going to change the way the Supreme Court is going to not only handle cases but the way the Supreme Court is going to look going forward. We all know the Republican Party has been packing the Supreme Court for decades. They’ve been packing the judiciary for decades. Trump has put now three justices on...

Giuliani said in a statement, “The Borat video is a complete fabrication. I was tucking in my shirt after taking off the recording equipment. “At no time before, during, or after the interview was I ever inappropriate. If Sacha Baron Cohen implies otherwise he is a stone-cold liar. “In fact, the NY Post today reports ‘it looks to me like an exaggeration through editing.’ As soon as I realized it was a set up I called the police. “This is an effort to blunt my relentless exposure of the criminality and depravity of Joe Biden and his entire family. “Deadline...

Most Americans were under the impression that this week's presidential debate had been canceled. Then they turned on NBC and realized they were wrong. The only change, it turns out, is that the "Today" show's Savannah Guthrie was taking on the president in what the network hilariously billed as a "townhall." Twenty minutes into Guthrie's interrogation, not one audience member had asked a question. It was a stark contrast to the Joe Biden lovefest happening on ABC, where even softball questions were changed out for Nerfs. Of course, the president predicted the "townhall" would be an ambush, even tweeting beforehand:...

Moderator George Stephanopoulos and undecided voters asked the Democratic nominee about everything from mandating a COVID-19 vaccine to how he’d handle a defeat on Nov. 3, but no one pressed Biden on newly unearthed emails that showed Hunter Biden selling access to his then-vice president dad. It was Biden’s first televised interview since The Post made public a tranche of documents related to Biden’s oft-troubled son. Among the emails on a recovered hard drive was one that indicated Hunter Biden introduced his father to a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm who was at the time under investigation before...

Joe Biden launched into a nearly incoherent policy rant in response to a question from a young black voter who tossed his infamous “you ain’t black” comment back in his face as he simply asked what the former vice president would do for African Americans if he won. Student Cedric Humphrey from Harrisburg, Pa., who identified as a “progressive Democrat,” appeared visibly unimpressed as the 77-year-old former veep rambled about how the right to vote was a “sacred opportunity” and erroneously claimed that he had reformed the criminal justice system during an ABC News town hall.

It turns out the ABC, CBS and NBC evening news shows won’t show you polls that show the majority of the American voters feeling better off now under President Donald Trump’s economy than under former President Barack Obama’s economy. But they do love parading around questionable polls showing Trump losing the election by double digits.

The Commission on Presidential Debates announced Thursday morning that the second debate between former Vice President Joe Biden and President Donald Trump will be virtual. However, shortly after the change was announced, Trump said he would refuse to participate in an interview with Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo. "I'm not going to do a virtual debate," Trump said Thursday morning. "No, I'm not going to waste my time with a virtual debate." In light of the president's refusal to debate virtually, Biden will instead participate in an ABC News town hall moderated by ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos in...

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s campaign is calling for changes to the final debate after President Trump pulled out of next week’s debate following the Commission on Presidential Debate’s announcement of a late change to the format. The Oct. 15 debate — which was supposed to be the second out of three — was designed as a town hall-style event between Trump and Biden. Trump announced Thursday he won’t be participating after the Commission said it would take place virtually, rather than in-person, because the president contracted the coronavirus. The Biden campaign is now calling on the commission to change...

ABC News on Thursday published a lengthy article that ABC touted as a fact-check on Wednesday night’s first and only vice presidential debate, but the network’s article exclusively focused on Vice President Mike Pence’s remarks. The article, titled “Fact-checking the 2020 vice presidential debate between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris,” promises to evaluate “what both candidates said,” but deals only with the vice president. ABC divided the feature into 12 separate sections, each of which dealt only with remarks from Pence.

You didn’t hear anything about the Tax Foundation decimating the economic credibility of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden the day of the first presidential debate. That’s because the Big Three evening news shows ignored it. The Tax Foundation released its analysis September 29, which revealed that Biden’s tax plan “would reduce GDP by 1.47 percent over the long term,” according to its General Equilibrium Model. But that’s not all. It turns out that everyone, not just the rich, is projected to take a hit in after-tax income by 2030 and hundreds of thousands of full-time equivalent jobs will be lost....

"Today marks another important step towards achieving justice against a media that thinks it has a license to smear,"

Anyway, one of my friends tweeted one of Stephanopoulos’ comments: @GStephanopoulos: “Our next question comes from Diane, she’s the president of the Delaware Valley Young Socialists Club and is an undecided voter…” I spewed soda through my nose, that tweet cracked me up so much. Think Stephanopoulos is too stupid to realize that a young female from Joe Biden’s home state who is also president of a socialist club might actually be decided?

The Big Three continue to prove themselves to be just obsessed with defeating President Donald Trump, rather than doing their jobs and reporting good news when it comes. A shocking new Axios report hit yesterday with news that Wall Street is saying that “the recession is over,” and that economic forecasts are now “showing sustained economic growth through 2021 and beyond.” Moreover, U.S. economic activity is projected “to grow more sharply in the third quarter of this year than during any other quarter in history.” On top of this, Bloomberg News reported the same day that U.S. household net worth...

Besides the obvious changes in formant and technical reach due to the coronavirus pandemic, Jimmy Kimmel’s third time as host saw a lot of firsts at the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards last night. For one, there was a host again after the TV Academy show ceremony tried to be like the 2019 Oscars and go without a frontman or frontwoman. Then there was the unprecedented total sweep by Canadian comedy Schitt’s Creek of every category it was nominated in. That sweep also saw a first for an import from the Great White North in a top series category. Additionally, with...

A few years ago, some waggish citizen of the internet decided he would take bits and pieces from horror film “The Shining,” score them to Peter Gabriel doing “Solsbury Hill” and create a trailer for a wholesome, fun, feel-good father-and-son tale, called “Shining.” Everything seen in the trailer really was taken from the movie, but to edit is to distort. Or even to create, as we saw in CNN and ABC’s town halls this week. Polls show the American people hold similar views of President Trump and Joe Biden; an Economist/YouGov poll of likely voters last week put Trump’s favorability...
