Here’s a question for ya: is anyone under 40 still watching late-night talk shows? And even more to the point: is anyone under 40 who isn’t a flaming liberal still tuning in to Kimmel, Colbert, or Fallon? We’d bet the answer is probably “NO.” Sure, media is changing. Podcasts are exploding. Legacy formats are fading; just look at how X has exploded. But the real reason late-night is dying is multifaceted, and one big reason is Stage 5 Trump Derangement Syndrome. These shows aren’t just outdated; they’ve become downright insufferable. It’s the same tired punchlines. The same smug sneering. The...

Representative LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) said Monday on CNN’s “The Lead” that “everything” President Donald Trump says is a lie. When discussing Newark Mayor Ras Baraka’s arrest at the Delaney Hall Detention Center last week, McIver said, “Along with Congresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman and Congressman Rob Menendez from New Jersey, we decided to show up at this facility to conduct an oversight visit.” Host Jake Tapper said, “What do you say to the DHS spokesman’s claim of body slamming?”

An article published last year ended with the following ominous sentences: “If the USA is unlikely to become once again an overwhelmingly Christian nation (and this seems to be the case), where will we turn for a new morality? Is it possible that we are now entering a century or so of moral anarchy?”

By now, you’ve probably heard the term “dark woke.” It’s supposed to represent a new, edgy, gloves-off messaging strategy among Democrats. But what’s new about this? Democrats have always taken the low road. A recent New York Times feature says “As liberals try to get their groove back, some party insiders say Democratic politicians have been encouraged to embrace a new form of combative rhetoric aimed at winning back voters who have responded to President Trump’s no-holds-barred version of politics.” An article posted on Yahoo News claims that “While traditional Democrats may still be pushing the idea of reaching across...

An MS-13 gang member known as ‘Anticristo’ has been sentenced to 55 years in prison for his role in the killings of four men in New York and another in Virginia. His real name is Omar Antonio Villalta, and his murder weapon of choice is the machete. Seeing that this man is a deadly criminal illegal alien, many are wondering when the Democrat Party is going to adopt him as one of their own. We can’t see why Dems would reject him. He is an illegal alien after all. Posters say his membership in MS-13 should make him too perfect...

Woke fatigue found comedian Bill Maher lashing out at the left for failing to set their “young, loyal followers” straight on being “embarrassed” to be American. “You couldn’t survive a week living in Intifadaville.” Like pests drawn to a bug zapper, the mask and keffiyeh-clad Hamas sympathizers that comprised the Democratic Party’s base continued to force their way into the spotlight despite the backlash it had meant in the last election. As those sentiments represented a sliver of the left’s anti-American attitude, Maher’s latest episode of HBO’s “Real Time” excoriated the party for its continued favor for the “weak and...

Bill Maher blasted the Democratic Party and its younger supporters on Friday’s episode of Real Time, warning that the party risks alienating mainstream voters by embracing radical ideas. During his “New Rule” monologue, Maher argued that Democrats have shifted from promoting progressive ideals to tolerating what he called extremist rhetoric and a complete embrace of Hamas. Maher said the Democratic Party’s issues after the 2024 election are that its base of young voters increasingly supports ideologies that are hostile to American values. “Their young people, their key constituency, not only don’t like their own civilization, they like the wrong one,”...
