At one point, Rudy Giuliani was a wildly popular mayor who was seen as a future presidential contender. Things have changed a lot over the last 20 years or so. The former New York City mayor is now a bit of a joke. From his 4 Seasons Total Landscaping press conference, to hair dye dripping…
Joe Biden is routinely attacked on Fox News. Each night the network’s personalities talk about his son Hunter or his mental capacity and sometimes they even discuss his policies.

Dr. Ronny Jackson began serving as the White House physician to Barack Obama back in 2013. When Donald Trump took office in 2017, Jackson remained in the position.

After months of Donald Trump supporters refusing to get vaccinated, Fox News finally started to push their viewers to get their shots. It was kind of a half-hearted effort though.

In the run-up to the 2020 election, Donald Trump and his underlings were doing everything they could to keep him. The best the GOP could come up with was attempting to attack Biden’s son Hunter.

When he first took office, Joe Biden promised to make a good faith effort to work with Republicans. And that effort has been made on numerous occasions over Biden’s first few months in office.

The country is now 6 months past the insurrection on the Capitol inspired by the previous administration.

Fox News has always been far right. But the network has taken an even more dramatic turn since the election of Joe Biden. Leading this charge is Tucker Carlson who recently claimed that the Trump insurrection this January was actually a false flag operation conducted by the FBI. Newsmax likes to present itself as an…
Donald Trump functions in a very different way than most politicians. The 45th president was coddled throughout his entire life and it wasn’t very often that he faced consequences for his actions. So Trump is having a very tough time coming to grips with the fact that he isn’t president anymore. In fact, he reportedly…
Thus far, Joe Biden has received high marks from the press for his recent foreign trip. On Wednesday, though, he did get into a testy exchange with CNN‘s Kaitlin Collins.

At the top of the docket for the president was a “Building Back Better†plan for the world. This is Biden’s first G7 summit as president.
It should have been pretty clear to Donald Trump who the country’s allies were. Instead, the former president treated the country’s enemies like friends and alienated long term supporters. And while Trump is out of office, he isn’t done hurting US foreign policy. Joe Biden is currently on his first major overseas trip and will…
Donald Trump was incapable of performing nearly all his duties as president. Never were his shortcomings more obvious, however, then when he was on the global stage.

In 1991, Judy Smith, who served as George H.W. Bush‘s deputy press secretary, became the first Black woman to answer questions from the White House press corps.

When he was president, Donald Trump had a number of people around him willing to pretend he was fit. Dr. Jerome Adams said that he was fitter than he was. Dr. Ronnie Jackson said that Trump was an impressive physical specimen. In reality, Trump was an obese man who ate poorly and rarely exercised. Joe…
It is very common for political polls to have partisan leanings. So common, in fact, that poll tracking site 538.com handicaps each major pollster by their partisan lead. For example, Rasmussen Reports has been assigned a 1.5% mean reverted bias to the right. The pollster was very favorable to Donald Trump. It was one of…

And in…

The problem Cheney and the other never-Trumpers have with Trump and the current Republican Party is that it has exposed the reality of the traditional GOP, pulled back the curtain of dignified phrases and codes to reveal its anti-egalitarian, racist, and undemocratic character.
After years of Sean Spicer, Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Kayleigh McEnany, Jen Psaki has been a breath of fresh air. The Biden Press Secretary has frequently gone viral for her snappy comebacks to stupid questions. But Americans who have delighted in Psaki’s performance will have to enjoy it while it lasts. She announced recently that…
When Donald Trump was running for President in 2016, Lindsey Graham famously said, “If we nominate Trump, we will get destroyed and we will deserve it.” Graham seems to have been right in his prediction, it just took half a decade.

Over the last few years, the only focus for Democrats was getting Donald Trump out of office. It was so difficult to achieve that goal that what the Left has actually achieved can be forgotten.

Joe Biden came into office with some big ideas. The first and most important one has already been handled.
