It was anti-Trump melodrama to the max on Jonathan Capehart's MSNBC show on Sunday. Michael Beschloss, the liberal historian turned Twitter troll, looked directly into the camera [see screencap] and beseeched the viewers: "Vote as if your life depends on it. Because it might."Then, a panicky Capehart asked Beschloss: "are we going to survive this?""I don't know," replied Beschloss. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Bias: Now that the media have fully covered a 150-year old Mormon massacre and Ann Romney's pet horse, maybe they can start looking into charges the man in the White House may have tried to bribe a critic into silence. If you're worried about Mitt Romney being fully vetted, don't be. The Los Angeles Times is all over it. Just look at Tuesday's edition.

The evening news broadcasts all but spiked the largest legal action in history to defend our constitutionally protected religious freedom. The May 21 editions of ABC’s World News and NBC’s Nightly News refused to report the fact that 43 Catholic dioceses and organizations filed a lawsuit on Monday against the Obama administration.

A God-awful, wall-to-wall, epic mess. And now, they have, in their hands, the clearest sign yet of how bad things have actually gotten. This...

Electoral victories of Democrats is a matter the media elites take immensely personal. Bill Clinton’s victory in ’92 was seen as their victory, the ascension to power of all children of the 60s (although Clinton is more conservative than they are, we must bear in mind that perception always trumps reality when it comes to the whimsical allegiances of superficial media elites) . Their fierce allegiance has now transferred to their replacement hero, Obama, who is far more radical than Clinton ever was and who may be even more radical than the media elites are themselves. So it’s understandable that...
