…and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room. I know some of my friends in the White House press corps will say, ‘Hang on a second, how are we supposed to cover this guy?’ I understand—it’s difficult if we’re not there. But for a moment, let the American people see this image: an aspiring autocrat in the Oval Office, surrounded only by his propaganda outlets and right-wing hacks. That’s not a good look for him. And I’ll tell you...

WATCH: Jim Acosta's New Show on Substack Is Even Worse Than Expected Former CNN host promises to 'bro out' in premiere episode plagued by charmless banter, technical difficulties ...responded by quoting "the great Christiane Amanpour...

Jim Acosta issued a bitter final diatribe as he confirmed that he is quitting CNN after being booted out of his prime slot. Concluding his CNN Newsroom show just before 11am ET Tuesday, Costa, 53, looked directly into the camera and said: 'One final message - don't give in to the lies. 'Don't give in to the fear. Hold on to the truth and to hope. 'Even if you have to get out your phone. Record that message. I will not give in to the lies. I will not give in to the fear posted on your social media so...

We knew this announcement was coming for days: CNN’s Jim Acosta is no longer with the network. The notable anti-Trump reporter and host was not keen on being relegated to the graveyard shift. Acosta would helm an anchor’s desk between midnight and two in the morning. I don’t see the problem, as the ratings likely would’ve been the same. Still, the man is making for the exits, so we won’t have these epic showdowns that often lit up social media.

Notorious never-Trump "journalist" Jim Acosta is leaving CNN, according to a new report. Oliver Darcy's Status News was the first to report the news: "The anchor, I’m told, signaled to associates in private conversations over the weekend that he intends to depart the network after its chief executive, Mark Thompson, booted him from the morning programming lineup — a move that conspicuously coincided with Donald Trump’s return to power. "CNN brass, as we first reported earlier this month, decided to strip Acosta of his 10am show, which he has anchored to great ratings success over the last 11 months, at...

BREAKING: Notorious liberal scold and anti-Trump legacy news personality Jim Acosta is out at CNN.

CNN’s Jim Acosta is reportedly fuming over his demotion to the network’s late-night graveyard shift and has threatened to walk away from the struggling network altogether. This development comes as far-left CNN undergoes a significant restructuring under CEO Mark Thompson. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Acosta, formerly CNN’s White House Correspondent and a prominent anti-Trump activist, may soon be getting a downgrade. Acosta currently hosts CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta on weekdays at 10 am. Yet, according to ex-CNN reporter Oliver Darcy, who now runs a media-focused newsletter called Status News, CNN chief Mark Thompson wants to move Acosta’s...

"Jim Acosta: "This is this is not Fox, congressman. You can't just spin a tale and pull the wool over people's eyes. This is CNN. This is the news. We are asking you to come on and tell the truth." Tim Burchett: "And that's why more people are watching the Cartoon Network, SpongeBob reruns right now. Jim, look, I left the White House during a riot. My life was threatened. My life has been threatened within the last few weeks, yet there's no coverage of that. And you all continue this, this narrative of attacking Trump. You just can't stand...

CNN’s Jim Acosta may no longer be able to showboat during White House press briefings, but this is not stopping him from getting humiliated on national TV. Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) appeared as a guest on Acosta’s eponymous show CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta Wednesday to discuss the J6 pardons issued by President Trump on Monday. Unsurprisingly, Acosta was in a foul mood as he sought to force Burchett into condemning Trump for freeing over 1,500 political prisoners held hostage by the Biden regime. “I just want to ask you if any of these people who were released from prison,...

CNN is apparently plotting to exile star anchor Jim Acosta — a longtime antagonist of President-elect Donald Trump — to the “Siberia of television news” in a bid to “throw a bone” to the incoming commander-in-chief, according to a former colleague. The network’s boss, Mark Thompson, this week called in Acosta to propose shifting his show, “CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta,” from 10 a.m. to the graveyard midnight slot, ex-CNN senior media reporter Oliver Darcy reported in his Status News newsletter. “The move would effectively exile Acosta to the Siberia of television news,” Darcy wrote.

CNN is set to banish longtime anchor and former White House correspondent Jim Acosta to the “Siberia of television news,” according to a report from a former colleague.Acosta, known to conservatives as an annoyance to President-elect Donald Trump, will see his program CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta moved from 10 a.m. to midnight, ex-CNN senior media reporter Oliver Darcy said.“The move would effectively exile Acosta to the Siberia of television news,” according to a Status News update from Darcy.

CNN anchor Jim Acosta said Monday on “Newsroom” that the Republican Party should have “flat out rejected” President-elect Donald Trump. Partial transcript as follows: ACOSTA: Brad, is it time for Donald Trump to apologize for what took place four years ago? BRAD TODD: I wouldn’t expect Donald Trump would apologize, I think, nor do I expect Democrats to apologize for trying to undo his presidency by all legal and extralegal means after that. ACOSTA: Oh come on Brad! Come on! TODD: No– dude! Look at our own polling. Look at CNN’s own exit polling. Voters who said they voted on...

Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), former chair of the Jan. 6 committee, said in a Thursday interview that he would accept a preemptive pardon from President Biden if he offered one. CNN’s Jim Acosta asked Thompson whether he wanted Biden to extend the pardon offer — in light of recent reporting that Biden was considering using the pardon power to protect those he feared may be targeted in Trump’s second term. “The president, it’s his prerogative,” Thompson said about whether he wants Biden to preemptively pardon him. “If he offers it, to me or other members of the committee, I think...

Representative Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) said Thursday on CNN’s “Newsroom” that the proposed Department of Government Efficiency, headed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, would be “unconstitutional and illegal.” Host Jim Acosta said, “I want to ask you about something that is coming into your wheelhouse. Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy apparently will be up on Capitol Hill talking about their ideas for this thing that they’re calling DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, which is a bit of a misnomer because it won’t be a part of the federal government, apparently but Congress controls the purse strings. What are your...

You know it’s bad when CNN is starting to ask questions about Kamala Harris’s refusal to engage with the media. Kamala Harris has not done one interview or press conference since she forced Joe Biden off the 2024 ballot 25 days ago. All she has done is repeat the same teleprompter speech over and over again. Harris doesn’t even have any policies on her campaign website because Americans are unhappy with the Biden-Harris inflation crisis and open borders nightmare. This is why Harris stole President Trump’s ‘no tax on tips’ idea. Kamala Harris is hiding from the media again as...

The few remaining viewers of CNN got a remarkable dose of news on Saturday. Just in time for Constitution Day, CNN’s dwindling audience learned that the Consitution of the United States — the oldest written government charter in the world and the document that gave birth to the nation that has spread democracy around the globe — has become so “outdated” that it’s actually a “threat to democracy.” Of course, that’s democracy as CNN’s scholars understand it. And you can’t spell ignorance without “C-N-N.” The word came on “Newsroom,” anchored by former CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta. Acosta interviewed...

Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) said former President Trump’s rhetoric regarding his possible indictment by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is “more overt and blatant” than his language leading up to Jan. 6. “Well, I think it’s a concern, the rhetoric that he’s using today is not dissimilar to the type of rhetoric he used prior to January 6. In fact, in some ways, it’s more overt and blatant than the events leading up to January 6,” Lofgren told CNN’s Jim Acosta on Sunday. Lofgren, who served on the Jan. 6 House select committee, noted that Trump posted a photo of...

Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) called on the Biden administration and local authorities in Florida on Sunday to send back to Brazil its former far-right President Jair Bolsonaro, whose supporters stormed the country’s Congress and Supreme Court. “[Bolsonaro] should be extradited to Brazil,” Castro said to CNN’s Jim Acosta. “In fact, it was reported that he was under investigation for corruption and fled Brazil to the United States. He’s a dangerous man, they should send him back to his home country, Brazil” Bolsonaro flew to Florida in late December as he faced multiple investigations from his time in office, according to...

The good news just keeps coming. Cuomo, Lemon etc. President Trump is still laughing at these jokers.
