Media Matters known for organizing pressure campaigns against conservative voices it opposes.. Ben Shapiro accused The New York Times of working with far-left advocacy group Media Matters for America in order to get anyone who opposed Kamala Harris silenced on YouTube, supplying screenshots of a reporter who noted he was working with the progressive organization. Media Matters, founded in 2004 by longtime Clinton ally David Brock, is often cited by legacy news organizations as a media watchdog. It has built a reputation for organizing pressure campaigns against conservative voices it opposes, including boycott movements. Shapiro took to social media to...

An essay by a longtime confidant and operative of Bill and Hillary Clinton compared former President Donald Trump’s rhetoric during his 2024 campaign to Nazi-era language echoing Hitler’s belief in racial hierarchy and purity. A Monday piece published by The Guardian, titled “Donald Trump’s Hitlerian logic is no mistake,” draws parallels between Donald Trump’s campaign rhetoric and the ideology of Nazi Germany. The article, authored by Sidney Blumenthal, who served as senior adviser to President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton and is known for his underhanded political tactics, attacked Trump’s terminology when discussing immigration and national security, comparing it to...

NATO is developing mass evacuation and rescue plans in case of a future war with Russia, a senior general has declared. Lieutenant-General Alexander Sollfrank, the head of NATO's logistics command, confirmed this week the security bloc is working to ensure it has the operational capability to extract large numbers of wounded troops from the front lines. What's more, Russia's air force and its vaunted rocket and missile stockpiles mean that medical evacuations via aircraft would be too risky - a factor that could force NATO's troops to operate 'hospital trains' to extract the wounded en masse. 'The challenge will be...

Chelsea Clinton says Donald Trump is "scared" that Kamala Harris' presidential debate performance will help her in the election. The only child of Bill and Hillary Clinton was a guest host Thursday on The View in place of Sunny Hostin and did not hold back giving her opinion about the upcoming election. "He knows he lost, he knows he lost his cool, he knows she got under his skin, and he knows she's on the right side of what most Americans want our country to be," Clinton, 44, added. "He's scared — and he should be." (snip) Clinton also took...

A new documentary produced by Hillary and Chelsea Clinton and actress Jennifer Lawrence centers on the so-called ‘cruel‘ Texas pro-life law, and three of the women who sued the state over that law. The emotionally charged subject matter seeks to persuade viewers to support legalized abortion throughout pregnancy, primarily because it both showcases the pain of the families involved and avoids the truth — that induced abortion (intentionally killing their children) was not the solution to any of their medical concerns. Induced abortion — the direct and intentional killing of children in the womb — is not the standard treatment...

Former President Bill Clinton defended President Joe Biden after his performance at the presidential debate on Thursday night against former President Donald Trump. In a post on X, Clinton highlighted how Biden had “given us 3 years of solid leadership,” and created a “record number of new jobs,” and was “making real progress solving the climate crisis,” among other things.

Joe Biden is being encouraged to replace Kamala Harris with a blast from the past to aid his floundering chances at re-election. Biden, who has struggled in the polls nationally and in key swing states, has left Democrats wondering if major change is needed to beat Donald Trump Questions and doubts exist over the health and ability to perform the job of Biden, at 81 Harris - the first female and first black vice president in American history - has also struggled, with poll numbers saying a majority of Americans don't think she would be a good president. Pulitzer Prize-winning...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton used the 80th anniversary of D-Day to draw a comparison between Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler and former President Donald Trump, claiming that those who voted against Trump would be doing as much to “protect democracy” as the boys who stormed the Normandy beaches.Clinton appeared to have some idea that her thoughts might not be well-received, as evidenced by the fact that she shut down replies to the post on X.“Eighty years ago today, thousands of brave Americans fought to protect democracy on the shores of Normandy. This November, all we have to do is...

This week, Breitbart interviewed the former Trump official Peter Navarro, one of many criminals in the ex-president’s orbit, from the Miami prison where he is serving four months for contempt of Congress. While life behind bars is difficult, Navarro boasted that his stint has been smoothed by his ties to Donald Trump, which make him something of a made man. The former president, said Navarro, is beloved not just by the guards, but by the “vast majority” of inmates as well. “If I were a Bidenite, things would be a lot tougher here — and yes, they know exactly who...

O’Keefe Media Group released a new video on Wednesday, exposing the mainstream media with Nick Cirone, a producer and booker from ABC News’ Good Morning America, who gives a tell-all on how they purposefully give Biden and the Democrats good press but smear and slant their coverage of Trump and “right-wing crazies” negatively. This is something that we all know is true, but they refuse to admit it. Even Cirone seemingly has no idea that what they’re doing is wrong, claiming that “the truth, very overwhelmingly, has a liberal bias.” Good Morning America is hosted by former Bill Clinton henchman...

Anything like the Laura Sylsby story is a candidate for being scrubbed off the internet sooner or later and I want at least the one versionof the story I'm still finding to be around as close to forever as possible. The article notes: Laura Silsby convicted in Haiti, but free to go JONATHAN M. KATZ, Associated Press Writer May 17, 2010 Comments  ......U.S. missionary Laura Silsby, left, leaves a courthouse in Port-au-Prince, Monday, May 17, 2010. Silsby, the last of 10 Americans detained while trying to take 33 children out of Haiti following the Jan. 12 earthquake, was released...

Since the 2010 earthquake, the United States has provided over $5 billion in aid to Haiti. That doesn’t include Biden’s latest batch of $133 million after gangs took over much of the country. The $100 million in security assistance announced by Biden is on top of the $312 million that we already provided to fund, train and arm Haiti’s police forces over the last decade and a half. And with over $400 million in backing, Haiti’s police still can’t compete with gang members. But many of the gang members were once the police officers whom we helped to train. Jimmy...

The neon lights could soon be bright for Joe Biden on Broadway as Hillary Clinton teams up with actor and songwriter Lin-Manuel Miranda to raise money for the president in the city that never sleeps. Clinton and the Hamilton musical creator will present a 'special Broadway performance' of 'Suffs: the musical' on April 3 to raise money for the Biden Victory Fund, the president's joint fundraising committee, and the Women's Leadership Forum. Tickets to the Times Square performance cost between $500 and $5,000 a person, according to the event invite. This is just the latest fundraising effort by the failed...

OREM, Utah — Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley on Wednesday called on Republican National Committee members to hold an on-the-record vote on a draft resolution that would curb the national party’s ability to direct its funds toward legal fees, including former President Donald Trump's. “All Americans, and Republicans especially, deserve a vote on the record on that resolution,” Haley said while campaigning here. “We deserve to know how the RNC is going to spend their money and if it’s going to go towards legal fees.” Trump co-campaign manager Chris LaCivita — whom Trump plans to install at the RNC along...

"No Labels" national director Joe Cunningham told "Fox & Friends" on Sunday that the group would "definitely" be interested in giving Nikki Haley a platform to run as a third-party presidential candidate if and when she drops out of the Republican primary. "We’re talking to a lot of spectacular people right now, and we’re not ready to unveil those folks just yet," Cunningham said. "This has been a project to essentially give Americans another choice if they’re unhappy with the presumptive nominees. Which, you know, it appears it’s going to be Trump vs. Biden right now, but we don’t know,"...

Do you remember the Brad Pitt movie, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”? The title character suffered from a unique condition in which he was born an old man and then kept getting younger and younger until he died as a newborn baby. Today, we are witnessing the equally curious transformation of a politician from a once reliable Republican conservative to a radical Democrat who seems intent on killing her own presidential political career in the crib. I am talking, of course, about Nikki Haley. [snip] Now, for the last two months, since shortly before the Iowa caucuses, we have...

The Haley campaign is blasting out a new national poll from Marquette Law School, which shows their candidate vastly outperforming Donald Trump in a hypothetical match-up against Joe Biden. Yes, Trump leads Biden head-to-head in the survey by four points, but Haley absolutely blows Biden out. A national Quinnipiac survey published earlier in the week showed Trump trailing Biden by four points, while Haley led Biden by three points -- a net over-performance of seven percentage points for the former South Carolina governor. The Trump/Haley vs. Biden gap is even more pronounced in the MU Law numbers, at 14 percentage...

Presidential hopeful and Trump challenger Nikki Haley is reportedly launching a seven-figure national cable and digital ad buy leading up to Super Tuesday, Haley campaign manager Betsy Ankney told reporters ahead of South Carolina’s primary results. While poll after poll shows Haley down by double digits in her home state of South Carolina, she has made it abundantly clear she plans to remain in the race regardless of the results on Saturday. “South Carolina will vote on Saturday, but on Sunday, I’ll still be running for president,” Haley told supporters during a speech in Greenville this week, making it clear...

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley said she will not drop out of the race regardless of the results of Saturday’s South Carolina primary, even as polls show her trailing former President Trump by a large margin in her home state. Haley told The Associated Press in an interview that she will remain in the race for the GOP nomination at least until Super Tuesday, March 5, when more than a dozen states will hold their primaries and caucuses. She noted that most states have not yet held their contests and many will vote shortly after South Carolina. “Ten days after...

Nikki Haley on Saturday said the death of “hero” Russian opposition leader Aleksei A. Navalny demands a response from former President Donald Trump. She said the outspoken Navalny had died at the hands of President Vladimir V. Putin and her former boss Trump needed to “answer to that,” the New York Times reports. Haley made her call while speaking with reporters outside her rally at a park in Irmo, S.C., praising Navalny for calling out Putin for corruption and fixing elections.
