Because the question puts Joe Biden and Kamala Harris between a rock and a hard place, and everyone knows it. Members of their own party in the Senate have floated the idea of packing the court if Democrats win the election and take control of Washington. That would require a bill to pass Congress and a president to sign the bill, and it would dramatically remake the Article III branch of government. That makes it a top-tier presidential-election issue, and Joe Biden knows it.Last night, though, Biden refused to answer the question lest voters take that answer into consideration...

.CNN’s Jake Tapper this weekend sat down with Jill Biden for a one-on-one interview. Jill Biden is now doing interviews and hitting the campaign trail to stump on her husband’s behalf while he hides in his basement. Jake Tapper asked Jill Biden about her husband Joe “you ain’t black” Biden’s signature “gaffes.” “Your husband has been known to make the occasional gaffe…” Tapper said

CNN’s Jake Tapper abruptly ended an interview with White House trade adviser Peter Navarro following a tense exchange about President Trump’s decision to initially downplay the threat of the coronavirus. Tapper asked Navarro to discuss a Feb. 7 recording with journalist Bob Woodward in which Trump said the virus is five times deadlier than the flu. In the weeks following, Trump continued to hold large rallies despite knowing the virus was airborne and deadly. On Feb. 26, he told reporters that the flu was more dangerous than the coronavirus. “He was misleading the public. Why?” Tapper asked Navarro on Sunday....

CNN anchor Jake Tapper tried to convince Republican Sean Parnell to run in a different congressional district than in Pennsylvania’s 17th, where he is currently challenging Democrat Rep. Conor Lamb (D-PA), sources familiar with Tapper’s actions told Breitbart News. Parnell, a rising GOP star who spoke at the 2020 Republican National Convention (RNC), served as a U.S. Army Ranger Captain in the so-called “Outlaw Platoon” for 485 days on the Afghan-Pakistan border. Lamb won a special election in 2017, the first year of President Donald Trump’s administration, which eventually paved the way for Democrats to retake the House majority in...

There may be no more blatant violation of the concept of truth in advertising than CNN's boastful claiming of the slogan "Facts First." If facts were water and opinions were whiskey, CNN would concoct a very potent cocktail. It's easy to compare CNN's very hostile coverage in the minutes after Vice President Mike Pence finished a Republican convention speech in front of a small crowd at Fort McHenry to CNN's reaction to Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris' speech the week before. Jake Tapper thinks of himself as firmly fact-based, especially when rebutting Republican speeches. Over video that showed President...

VIDEO As was totally expected in light of Brian Stelter urging the media to rudely interrupt the Republican convention speeches, CNN is taking his advice. Already today, Anderson Cooper and John King slammed President Trump after CNN rudely cut away from his convention speech. Another who joined the in the anti-Trump frenzy was Jake Tapper who, as you can see, went full smear. One humorous lowlight of his segment was when he turned it over to a CNN correspondent who acted shocked, SHOCKED that the speakers at the convention would be supporting Trump. Yeah, who ever heard of speakers...

(CNN)Miles Taylor, a former senior Trump administration official, endorsed Joe Biden's presidential campaign on Monday, becoming one of the highest-ranking former Trump administration officials to do so. Taylor, who served as chief of staff to Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, also accused President Donald Trump of repeatedly using his office for political purposes, including directing officials to cut wildfire relief funding to California because voters there overwhelmingly opposed him in 2016. Taylor, a longtime Republican and political appointee at DHS from 2017 to 2019, endorsed the former vice president in a video produced by the group Republican Voters Against Trump...

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti had the audacity to join Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union program and blame his failed handling of the coronavirus pandemic on President Donald Trump. He said this as if his decisions have not directly resulted in LA’s surging cases and a corresponding rise in homicides.  Garcetti started out the interview by saying that the city “was left on their own” when they should have had help. But did the Mayor completely forget that President Trump, at the request of Governor Newsom, sent the USNS Mercy to the Port of Los Angeles early...

CNN's Jake Tapper unhinged about enormous progress Trump Administration has made on testing, etc. https://t.co/AfHiuqmdCe— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) July 27, 2020

Looks like Dr. Fauci forget to actually use his face mask while watching the Kaepernickers playing baseball. I’m sure the media will question him about it. After all, as he says, we’re in this together and everyone needs to obey the the science. H/T WTOP https://t.co/placCoe2E9 pic.twitter.com/uC9ZwZF2Lj— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) July 24, 2020

Monday on CNN, anchor Jake Tapper critiqued President Donald Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic. Tapper said, “Health experts say the United States is in desperate need of a vaccine because President Trump and other leaders have so seriously mishandled any serious attempt to contain the virus within our borders. As of this afternoon, the U.S. is nearing 4 million confirmed cases in the United States, and that’s growing, almost 141,000 lives have been lost. That number is also sadly growing. He continued, “We have already seen months of examples of what the president does at these briefings. He often...

Good John Roberts showed up for court today. – The Supreme Court issued a decision today that could have huge implications for the November elections. On a 6-3 vote, the Court refused to reconsider a lower court ruling that prevents Florida from restoring the voting rights of convicted felons who have not satisfied all the terms of their convictions, including fines and other financial penalties. Liberal Stephen Breyer voted along with the very unreliable “conservative” majority. Plaintiffs had sued the state for denying the vote to felons who had served their time but failed to pay up. Under Florida law...

Tuesday on CNN’s “The Lead,” anchor Jake Tapper criticized Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D-NY) poster illustrating the “111 days of hell,” in New York during its peak of coronavirus cases. The poster included several personal jokes about Cuomo’s family. Tapper said, “New York’s Democratic governor Andrew Cuomo seems to be on something of a victory tour congratulating the state and himself for defeating the virus. Even selling this poster, which shows his state getting over the mountain by bringing down the curve during the 111 days of hell, as the governor put it.”

While massive protests continue to rage across the country (and beyond) in the name of George Floyd, Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors admitted during a Friday night interview with CNN that “our goal is to get Trump out.” Cullors, who described BLM organizers in 2015 as “trained Marxists,” compared Trump to Hitler after refusing to meet with him, and referred to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as the Gestapo, told CNN‘s Jake Tapper (via Breitbart‘s Josh Caplan): JAKE TAPPER: I’ve heard a lot of criticism of former Vice President Joe Biden from civil rights activists. The election, obviously, will...

WATCH VIDEO......"I know you told me I couldn't say it. But it is important to note that John Bolton is trying to make money here. And it is curious to all of us he that he wasn't willing to say this stuff to congress, but he is willing to say it when he can make money."

Carson suggested during an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union" that the President this week would further address Floyd's killing and the tensions it exposed. "I believe you're going to be hearing from the President this week on this topic in some detail. And I would ask you maybe to reserve judgment until after that time," Carson said. ... that this was one of the worst weeks of Trump's tenure, a source close to the White House said there has been a more optimistic shift in the last two days. The shocking job numbers released Friday...

CNN’s Jake Tapper is a raging, unbridled hypocrite. Tapper loves to strike the pose of an old-fashioned, intrepid reporter doggedly going after the truth, and occasionally actually even asks a semi-tough question of a Democrat guest, though never with any attempt at follow up when the Democrat inevitably lies or deflects in their response. The truth is that Tapper runs one of the most absurdly-biased show on television, one that has spent the past four-plus years relentlessly pushing every bizarre smear and conspiracy theory the Democrats have concocted against President Donald Trump and members of his administration. Tapper is just...

How much dishonesty can one tweet contain? A tweet Tuesday by CNN host Jake Tapper about coronavirus was so untethered from the truth that it was a difficult task to determine what was more dishonest, the photo or the message, or all of the above. After the mercifully long Memorial Day weekend, CNN’s professional coronavirus scold took beachgoers to task for failing to socially distance. And he brought the “receipts,” or so he thought. In 18 states — including Georgia, Arkansas, California and Alabama — the number of new COVID-19 cases is rising. Here’s the photo he and CNN used...

Former Vice President Joe Biden hired a “senior adviser” on Wednesday who said in 2017 that no one who has been “accused of sexual harassment or assault” should run for public office. Karine Jean-Pierre, who was then the chief public affairs officer for left-wing MoveOn.org, told CNN’s Jake Tapper on State of the Union that even if nothing had been proved against a candidate, the mere accusation of sexual impropriety should be disqualifying. Tapper asked Jean-Pierre to respond to a case in which a female Democratic candidate for Congress in Kansas named Andrea Ramsey dropped out of the race because...
