Representative Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former President Donald Trump likely has dementia. Host Dana Bash said, “Several newspaper editorial boards, or just simply calling for Biden to step decide for the good of the country. Tom Friedman, a friend of President Biden’s, wrote the following. He wrote ‘Joe Biden, a good man and a good president, has no business running for reelection if he insists on running and he loses to Trump, Biden and his family and his staff and party members who enabled him will not be able to show their...

If you just followed news reports on Ukraine, you might think that the war has settled into a long, grinding and somewhat boring slog. You would be wrong. Things are actually getting more dangerous by the day. For starters, the longer this war goes on, the more opportunity for catastrophic miscalculations — and the raw material for that is piling up fast and furious. Take the two high-profile leaks from American officials this past week about U.S. involvement in the Russia-Ukraine war: First, The Times disclosed that “the United States has provided intelligence about Russian units that has allowed Ukrainians...

New York Times columnist Tom Friedman has a hot take about the Ukraine War, and of course, it involved trying to freak people out about climate change. Friedman blurted in a new op-ed that the Ukraine War “needs to end with America finally, formally, categorically and irreversibly ending its addiction to oil.” Friedman's op-ed, headlined "How to Defeat Putin and Save the Planet," pontificated that “[n]othing has distorted our foreign policy, our commitments to human rights, our national security and, most of all, our environment than our oil addiction.” Then came the apocalyptic doom-mongering: “Our civilization simply cannot afford this...

The liberal media slobbered over how President Joe Biden could return the U.S. economy to glory. So far, their optimism has been a bad joke, and a new poll highlights just how badly they missed the mark. New York Times foreign affairs columnist Tom Friedman spewed in an absurd March op-ed headlined, “The Biden Boom,” that Biden had a “chance to supercharge the economy.” He argued: “Biden’s stimulus will fuel an already restructuring economy and supercharge it.” He said concerning Biden’s gargantuan stimulus that “there are lots of signs that we could be headed for just such an explosion in...

New York Times columnist Tom Friedman wants President Joe Biden to stimulate the economy into such a sugar high that former President Donald Trump’s GOP won’t regain control of Washington. Friedman spewed in his absurd op-ed “The Biden Boom” that Biden has a “chance to supercharge the economy.” However, Friedman then spent eight paragraphs without even talking about the economy once. Instead, he went on an anti-GOP rant and whined how he thought that “once Joe Biden took charge my anxiety over how close we came to losing our democracy would soon fade. It hasn’t.” He also spat racist insanity...

New York Times columnist Tom Friedman told CNN during an interview on Monday night that while communist China does some bad things, such as locking up religious minorities in concentration camps, at least they don’t have to put up with the Republican Party and fringe conspiracy theories. Friedman made the remarks during an interview on “Cuomo Prime Time” with host Chris Cuomo in a segment that was primarily focused on the upcoming Senate impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump. “But you know what I’ve been thinking about Chris, as I was listening to your show, the lead in here?”...

VIDEO Listen to just how hilariously desperate New York Times columnist Tom Friedman is to remove President Trump from office. After listening to his rant, do you have any doubt that he will need to be strapped down to a gurney after the election? The Rubber Room awaits, Tom!

It’s probably no surprise that New York Times columnist Tom Friedman has been imagining a Joe Biden victory for the White House in November. But what had some liberals freaking out Tuesday was Friedman’s suggestion that Biden, if elected, form a “unity cabinet,” composed of both Democrats and Republicans. The coronavirus outbreak provides the perfect opportunity to renew a bipartisan spirit in the U.S. after years of partisan acrimony, Friedman argued.

Insufferable New York Times opinion columnist Thomas Friedman is exploiting the pandemic to spew climate change drivel at President Donald Trump. In an op-ed headlined “With the Coronavirus, It’s Again Trump vs. Mother Nature,” Friedman used a dubious comparison between Trump’s handling of the coronavirus and climate change as evidence he was “enamored with markets but ignorant of Mother Nature.” Friedman quipped: “[W]e have paid a steep, steep price for that [Trump’s ignorance to Mother Nature] — and will pay an even bigger price when it comes to climate change, if Trump remains in charge.” [Emphasis added.] Oddly, his only...

There must be a rip in the fabric of the universe. New York Times columnist Tom Friedman who at least until very recently suffered from extreme Trump Derangement Syndrome wrote on on May 21 that Trump is correct in attempting to reset our trade relationship with China. In case you thought this was a brief moment of mental clarity, he also appeared with Steve Bannon on CNBC and mostly agreed with him about the need to push China into a new trade agreement.

VIDEO New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman proposed building a big beautiful border wall. The only reason he is making such a proposal is that he knows the Democrats' current position on opposing this wall is political suicide. Friedman wants the Democrats to at least PRETEND to support building such a wall because he knows that their opposition to border security will deliver victory to Donald Trump in 2020 and since he suffers from extreme Trump Derangement Syndrome he knows his mental health is at stake if Trump is re-elected.

Did New York Times columnist Tom Friedman have a true epiphany resulting in a "flying pigs" moment when, after going on a tour of the border, he declared that a high wall as President Donald Trump has wanted is needed? Well, not exactly. His call for a high border wall probably comes more from desperate political expediency since Friedman has a history of extreme Trump Derangement Syndrome. He knows that the basically open borders position by the Democrats will be political suicide for that party in 2020 resulting in Trump's sure re-election. Therefore take his recent support of a high border...

Time for G.O.P. to Threaten to Fire Trump Republican leaders need to mount an intervention. Thomas L. Friedman By Thomas L. Friedman Opinion Columnist Dec. 24, 2018 Up to now I have not favored removing President Trump from office. I felt strongly that it would be best for the country that he leave the way he came in, through the ballot box. But last week was a watershed moment for me, and I think for many Americans, including some Republicans. It was the moment when you had to ask whether we really can survive two more years of Trump as...

A transcript is below but you really, really have to watch the video of New York Times columnist Tom Friedman on Tuesday's Morning Joe begging the viewers to vote Democrat in the midterms to get a full sense of his angst. His obvious desperation was written all over his face and was so over the top as to cause him to drop any pretense of non-partisanship (as if he had any) and urge everyone who could hear him to go full out Democrat in the midterm elections in order to put a check on President Donald Trump. Friedman doesn't quite break...

An attorney for Trump, Jay Sekulow and his senior counsel Carly Gammill appeared in a Washington D.C. federal court last week to find out when they will be receiving documents related to the Obama unmasking scandal. The ACLJ (American Center For Law and Justice) filed a FOIA lawsuit last summer and they are just now beginning to receive documents. Sekulow revealed the first batch of unmasking documents on his radio show Jay Live on Tuesday. The ACLJ received heavily redacted emails from former US Ambassador to the UN Samantha Power that show unprecedented unmasking and political bias in the final...

Our democracy is in serious danger. President Donald Trump is either totally compromised by the Russians, is a towering fool, or both, but either way, he has shown himself unable or unwilling to defend America against a Russian campaign to divide and undermine our democracy.

In what seemed like the ramblings of a 19th century Luddite, New York Times columnist and Pulitzer Prize winner, Tom Friedman appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday where he issued a ridiculous warning about the US economy under President Donald Trump. “So what’s going to happen if prices go up? American companies will build those factories here,” he exclaimed, “And you know what they'll do? They'll completely robotize them. There will be no jobs!”Friedman’s tirade was triggered by the very active first week of the Trump administration where the president signed executive orders on everything from immigration to economics....

But my fellow Americans, whatever mix of motives led us to create an Electoral College majority for Donald Trump to become President — and overlook his lack of preparation, his record of indecent personal behavior, his madcap midnight tweeting, his casual lying about issues like “millions” of people casting illegal votes in this election, the purveying of fake news by his national security adviser, his readiness to appoint climate change deniers without even getting a single briefing from the world’s greatest climate scientists in the government he’ll soon lead and his cavalier dismissal of the C.I.A.’s conclusions about Russian hacking...

Mark Levin's new book "Plunder and Deceit" has been number one on the New York Times bestseller list for five weeks in a row. Like with his other best-sellers, no liberal journalist will read it, no liberal newspaper will review it, and no liberal network would imagine calling up Levin for an interview. They are too busy advocating tolerance and diversity. Why doesn't Mark Levin deserve a turn on CBS's "60 Minutes"? Why can't the conservative taxpayers be granted a forum for Levin or "Charlie Rose" on PBS or on NPR's "All Things Considered"? In short, why not a slice...

“I think the biggest threats that they face may not be coming from Iran invading,” said Obama. “It’s going to be from dissatisfaction inside their own countries.” While the president’s remarks were mostly overlooked by the U.S. and Western media, the comments received headline coverage in news outlets run by Iran and by the Hezbollah jihadist organization. Obama sat down Saturday with Times’ columnist Thomas L. Friedman, who asked about “protecting our Sunni Arab allies, like Saudi Arabia.” Obama explained he thinks “that our friends in the region, our traditional Sunni states, have some very real external threats, but they...
