hanksgiving week is an obvious time to roll out the liberal media's tradition of exaggerating the hunger problem in America. On CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish kicked off the segment by claiming: "One in five children in the US experiencing hunger right now."Utterly false. Her guest, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, the head of the "Feeding America" organization, cleaned that up a bit. But apparently not wanting to call Cornish out on her gross misrepresentation, Babineaux-Fontenot said: "You said it before. One in five of our children are food insecure." No, Cornish didn't say before that 1-in-5 children are "food insecure." She...

The Senate Environment and Public Works subcommittee hearing was supposed to be Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s victory lap: a nationally televised “youth climate town hall” stacked with friendly witnesses, TikTok influencers in the gallery, and a 40-minute opening statement that read like a campaign ad. Then Chairman Kennedy (yes, that Kennedy) recognized the final witness. “Mr. Barron T. Trump, private citizen, New York...

Aftyn Behn (D-Nashville) says "the recent discovery of a podcast from 2020 where I said 'I hate the city, I hate the bachelorettes, I hate the pedal taverns, I hate country music, I hate all of the things that make Nashville.

VIDEOWhich is funnier? Seeing an "authentic" Native American dance consisting of such moves as the Harlem Shuffle crossed over with the Spring Slide or watching shocked woke Garden Grove, CA school board members trying to stifle any reaction to that dance for fear of being thought culturally insensitive? If they smile or laugh they could be accused of the latter but by showing disapproval they could be accused of disrespect. So what to do? Best to just FREEZE and display no reaction while praying that the Native American displaying moves from the ancient era of the 70s and 80s when...

In Chicago, the great city shaped by Mayor Richard J. Daley and his son, Mayor Richard M. Daley there is a new policy, a progressive policy. It is not the law-and-order city.
