President Trump ordered a new offensive in Iran over the weekend, taking out top Iranian tyrants like Ayatollah Khamenei. Bizarrely, our media composed puffy obituaries for the Ayatollah and gave Iran’s foreign minister a softball platform when they all pressure each other to be ever more hostile in questioning our elected president.

MRC President David Bozell and NewsBusters Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro joined the show. Nick pointed out that over the weekend, The Washington Post ran an obituary titled: “Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, is dead at 86.” The paper warmly remembered the brutal Islamic dictator as a “avuncular figure” with an “easy smile” and a love for “Persian poetry.” Why must American press outlets swoon over our enemies like that?

ABC News was once again treading dangerously close to serious legal lability. During Thursday’s episode of The View, co-host Sunny Hostin spew allegations – without evidence – about President Trump “sexually assaulting that 13-year-old.” A short time later, Hostin was made to reel in her definitive claims with a touch of skepticism by noting what she was referring to were “unverified allegations,” which were being pushed by Democrats and the liberal media.

The liberal ladies were discussing the Epstein files yet again after Democratic House member Robert Garcia (CA) claimed 50 pages were missing related to a salacious claim made against the President involving a 13-year-old girl.

In their discussion, Hostin spoke about the allegation as if it was fact:

HOSTIN: I want to know where those pages are.

JOY BEHAR: What was taken out?

HOSTIN: Well, we don’t know what was taken out, but what we know is that Representative Garcia read about 50 — 50 pages are left out. He did read an account of the President sexually assaulting that 13-year-old.

BEHAR: Trump. This president.

HOSTIN: Yes.

A short time later, co-host Joy Behar handed Hostin a card and teed her up to hedge her accusation by admitting the allegations were “unverified,” but she needed to get a dig in by reading them:

I want to be very careful here because these are allegations and President Trump has consistently – they’re unverified allegations and President Trump has consistently denied all the allegations and any wrongdoing. BUT there was a presentation made by the FBI and the witness stated that Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Trump, who subsequently forced her head down and punched her in the head in response to something that she did.

Operation Epic Fury is further exposing many of the structural biases inherent to the Elitist Media. On ABC’s This Week, Senator James Lankford (R-OK) called host George Stephanopoulos out for platforming the Iranian foreign minister and allowing him to spin.

Watch as Lankford subtly calls Stephanopoulos out:

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: And we are back now with Republican senator James Lankford of Oklahoma. Senator, thank you for joining us this morning you just heard the Iranian foreign minister. He said this attack was unprovoked. How do you respond?

CNN is known for feeding red meat — perhaps blue meat? — to their left-of-center followers by showing them “scary” content about the other side of the aisle.

From wall-to-wall Jan. 6 coverage to constant whining about President Donald Trump, CNN is one of the most notorious purveyors of leftist narrative framing.

Now the propaganda machine is churning out new content about “Christian Nationalism” — the apparently radical idea that America is a historically Christian people, and would be blessed by honoring God and His Word.

At least 555 people have been killed in US-Israeli strikes across 131 counties in Iran, the Iranian Red Crescent Society says, amid another wave of intensive attacks and Iranian counterstrikes on Israel and US assets in the Middle East region.

At least 35 people were killed on Monday morning in southern Iran’s Fars province, according to the Mehr news agency. The outlet also reported more than 20 people killed in an attack on Niloofar Square in Tehran.

Wednesday on MS NOW’s “The Briefing,” Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) said Republicans have been allowing “racism in their party for decades.”

Host Jen Psaki said, “You’ve talked about your battle with dyslexia a lot publicly over the years. You wrote a children’s book. And you talk about it a lot in the book in terms of dealing with undiagnosed dyslexia as a child. And MAGA is currently having an absolute meltdown on social media over comments you made on your book tour in Atlanta. And you said, just to remind people, while talking about your experience, you said, I’m like you, I’m a 960 SAT guy. Right wingers and on Twitter and Fox News hosts and some even Republican elected officials have said that’s racist. I mean, what goes through your head when you saw that commentary sort of building and bubbling?”

CBS News confirmed President Donald Trump’s assertion during Tuesday night’s State of the Union address that the United States experienced its lowest murder rate on record in 2025.

“Last year, the murder rate saw its single largest decline in recorded history. This is the biggest decline, think of it, in recorded history — the lowest number in over 125 years,” he said.

Predictably, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel was not a fan of President Trump’s Tuesday State of the Union address, but even by his standards, Kimmel went off the rails.

Kimmel began by declaring, “It was an angry speech. The theme of tonight’s speech was all foreigners are murderers. And Trump just—he said zero illegal aliens have been allowed into the United States on his watch, but the door is always open to those who come in legally to be his next wife. So, that’s something. He bragged about ending DEI, he bragged about kicking two million people off food stamps. It was like a Christmas message from the Grinch.”

Abortion bans will expose women giving birth to “44 to 70 times higher than the mortality risk from abortion,” according to a new study from the University of Maryland and Brown University.

The lead author, Maria Steenland, an assistant professor at the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health, claims, “Our new analysis shows that it is far more dangerous to be pregnant than to have an abortion, and this gap in mortality risk is even larger than previously recognized.”

On Thursday’s CNN This Morning, the panel reacted with alarm to reports that the Department of Homeland Security is compiling data on anti-ICE activists. Host Audie Cornish played a clip in which an ICE agent, in what she described as a “tossed off” remark, told a protester she was now considered a “domestic terrorist.” Cornish claimed that such language, once written into a report, “becomes a real problem for someone.”

Republican panelist Kristen Soltis Anderson urged viewers to “think about what would have happened during the Tea Party era, when the shoe’s on the other foot, about how upset conservatives would have been at the idea of the government tracking their speech in any kind of way. And so I always just think it’s useful to imagine, like, what if the parties were flipped here? And I think a lot of conservatives would be in, would be unbelievably outraged, and rightly so, if a Democratic administration was trying to track them.”

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas is taking aim at late-night talk show host Stephen Colbert for pulling an interview with her opponent.

Colbert lashed out at President Donald Trump after CBS pulled an interview with James Talarico, another Democratic candidate running for Senate against Crockett, citing new FCC guidelines. While Colbert pointed the finger at the government, Crockett was quick to push back on the narrative, insisting that the federal government had nothing to do with the decision to pull Talarico’s interview.

‘This was because of a fear that the FCC may say something to them.’

Stephen Colbert’s time as host of The Late Show is almost ending, but that’s not stopping him from lying. Colbert claims CBS refused to air an interview with Senate candidate James Talarico. Today’s show shines a light on the truth.

“The good news is that for people like Colbert…the stunt does not have to be rooted in truth to be successful, you just have to be lucky enough that people have moved on before the truth reveals itself. That’s what they were banking on,” Crowder said.

According to CNBC:

“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert on Tuesday night called CBS’ denial of his claim that it blocked the broadcast of his interview with Texas state Rep. James Talarico “crap” — and urged the network and its parent, Paramount Skydance , to stand up to the “bullies” in the Trump administration.

According to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, the media covers the Trump administration “fairly and accurately.” If that were true, at least when it comes to her reporting, she would not tell such a blatant lie. This is proven by the fact that the media had zero relevance in the 2024 presidential election.

There are two things easily debunked in the video. First, it’s the claim that, at the very least, she believes she’s fair.

This is what she means when she claims she treats the president “fairly.”

Yeah, that was totally unbiased reporting….

ICE Director Todd Lyons has been using the House hearing that he is taking part in to argue that ICE is the real victim of ICE’s campaign of lawless violence across America.

According to CBS News, in his opening statement, Lyons said:

Lyons also condemned rhetoric from public officials against ICE, saying it has “fomented violence against dedicated American patriots defending our homeland, and this must stop.”

“We are facing the deadliest operating environment in our agency’s history,” he told lawmakers.

The real victims here aren’t the two dead Americans in Minneapolis, but the scores of people who are being beaten and abused while in detention. The real victims in this story are people in masks who are terrorizing American communities.

Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) had a reality check for Lyons.

Rep. McIver asked, “Do you consider yourself a religious man?”

Lyons answered, “Yes, ma’am.”

McIver continued, “How do you think Judgement Day will work for you with so much blood on your hands?”

Lyons said that he wasn’t, “going to entertain that question.”

McIver continued, “Do you think you’re going to hell, Mr. Lyons?”

After a warning from the chair about decorum, McIver said, “I was asking a question. You guys are always talking about religion here and the Bible, I mean, it’s okay for me to ask a question, right?”

Havana — Cuban aviation officials have warned airlines that there isn’t enough fuel for airplanes to refuel on the island, the latest step in its moves to ration energy as the Trump administration cuts the Caribbean nation off from its fuel resources.

The government of Cuba published the notices to airlines and pilots on Sunday night, warning that jet fuel wouldn’t be available at nine airports across the island, including José Martí International Airport in Havana, starting Tuesday and continuing until March 11.

Political pressure from President Trump on Latin America has effectively severed Cuba’s access to its primary petroleum sources in Venezuela and Mexico.  In late January, Mr. Trump signed an executive order that would impose a tariff on any goods from countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba, a move that could further cripple an island plagued by a deepening energy crisis.

Immigration is shaping up to be the hit-button issue of this midterm election. One drawback, though, is that these types of stories require a steady flow of victims in order to keep the issue in front of the public.

Chaos reigned outside a Mogadishu, Minnesota courthouse. A rapid response until of constitutional observers witnessed ICE agents arresting someone who could have easily been one of your friends and neighbors, or even YOU. At least, that is, if you were caught with fifty pounds of methamphetamine. That was the person whom agents had to chase on foot before taking him into custody, but you wouldn’t know it if you glazed legacy media headlines on the X-Twitters.

Because let’s be honest. I know that you know that they know most people will just read the headline and use that to form their opinions.

We’ll start our story with ICE agents arresting a man who was charged with possessing over FIFTY POUNDS of meth. Note: When the media or the left (but I repeat myself) report that the majority of ICE arrests are people who were not charged with violent crime, they are talking about people like this guy and his fifty pounds of meth.

The debate over immigration rages on in this country, with a disproportionate media focus on the enforcement side. But there continue to be horrific crimes committed by illegal aliens that garner no coverage from the network evening news.

The horrific truck crash in Indiana that killed four Amish individuals was not reported across the evening news. Here’s how it was covered on Fox News’ Special Report with Bret Baier:

PBS led the charge in insurrectionist propaganda this week when it left Boston Globe Columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr and Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker essentially spin a conspiracy theory that the Hitlerian ICE agents are going to make sure the Republicans win the 2026 midterms and finalize their fascist masterplan. This week was filled with DNC criminal media info-terrorist attacks on Americans. No arrests have been made, so far.

Stohr threw out the libelous invective, which was only affirmed by Parker. She claimed, “… I’m concerned about call—not denying that ICE will show up at election stations, that the call for this increasing redistricting, mid-decade redistricting in states in order to try to game the system. Elections are supposed to be sacred in any functioning democracy. And that the president of the United States is the one making the call to disparage them and try to rig the system is really alarming.”

Parker added to the info-terrorist attack in her effort to signal to the DNC’s Antifa Army to continue the murderous assault on American ICE agents, “ “And he can’t let it go because I think he’s taken a page from Mein Kampf, frankly, you know, the saying that if you say—tell a big lie often enough and repeat it, then people will believe it. And the theory was further refined by the propaganda head in Nazi Germany, Mr. Joseph Goebbels. And the idea is, apparently, it’s true that—they would know, I guess—that people will believe a big lie quicker than they will believe a small lie.”

PBS Guests Invoke Hitler, Jim Crow Over ICE-Election Conspiracy Theory – newsbusters.org

Boston Globe columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr and Washington Post counterpart Kathleen Parker pinch-hit for Jonathan Capehart and David Brooks, respectively, on Friday’s PBS NewsHour, where they teamed up with host Geoff Bennett to invoke Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf, chief Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels, and Jim Crow all over a conspiracy theory about ICE monitoring the upcoming midterms that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed as “very silly.”

During an answer about whether Trump’s call to “nationalize” elections is serious or just bluster, Stohr added a few more election-related concerns, “But I’m concerned about call—not denying that ICE will show up at election stations, that the call for this increasing redistricting, mid-decade redistricting in states in order to try to game the system. Elections are supposed to be sacred in any functioning democracy. And that the president of the United States is the one making the call to disparage them and try to rig the system is really alarming.”
