In the two-and-a-half days immediately following the New York Post’s hit job on Hunter Biden, Fox News reportedly dedicated three times as much airtime to the former vice president’s son as it did to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, at least one prominent Fox host seems to be realizing that it’s not working. During a preview segment for the final debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden, scheduled for this Thursday, Steve Doocy explicitly warned the president not to talk about Hunter. “So you gotta figure the president’s gonna try to bring up Hunter Biden in some manner,” Doocy said. Brian Kilmeade […]

US talk show host Bill Maher sparked a social media row on Friday night when he called Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett “nuts” on account of her Catholic faith. Democratic senators “won’t make Barrett’s religion an issue – but they should, ’cause being nuts is relevant,” he claimed on […]
“Cocaine is a hell of a drug,” proclaimed Dave Chappelle’s Rick James, and the same is true of gambling. For proof, just ask Craig Carton, whose world collapsed in 2017 thanks to an addiction to blackjack and the ensuing fraud he perpetrated to pay off his debts. A counselor featured in Wild Card: The Downfall of a Radio Loudmouth equates playing cards for money with snorting fine china, since both produce a high that can only be replicated through endless—and increasingly reckless—repetition. There’s clear evidence that it was a quest for that rush, and a sense of control, that did in […]
Have America’s cable news anchors learned nothing? In an attempt to fill air-time leading up to a misleading press conference from the doctors treating Donald Trump at Walter Reed hospital, MSNBC anchor Alex Witt gave the president credit for his new “tone” post-COVID-19 diagnosis. “Interestingly as we listen to the president via Twitter last night, is it my imagination, or was there a somewhat gentler tone to this president?” Witt asked, in comments first flagged by The Daily Show senior digital producer Matt Negrin. “Not caustic when he said ‘Thank you to all, love,’ all-caps. There was something rather heartfelt.” She […]
Liverpool has remained unbeaten in their last 60 Premier League games at home. The last time they lost was in April 2017 in a 2-1 defeat to Crystal Palace. Jurgen Klopp’s team has won 26 of their last 27 EPL games. Defending EPL champions Liverpool are set to host Arsenal at Anfield on Monday night in their third game of the English Premier League season. Both sides come into the match having won two out of two in the league so far. Both will be eager to add another three points to their tally. Liverpool enter the game after an impressive […]
Unlike President Donald Trump’s eagerly accommodating attorney general, Bill Barr, Shepard Smith doesn’t believe that New York is a dystopian jurisdiction of “anarchy, violence, and destruction.” That was the claim in last week’s Justice Department memo threatening the cutoff of federal tax dollars to the city. “You know, man, I walk out in Greenwich Village and we have outdoor restaurants everywhere,” CNBC’s newest star told The Daily Beast, in that familiar booming broadcast voice only slightly inflected by his small-town Mississippi roots, as he got ready for Wednesday night’s debut of The News with Shepard Smith, an hour-long show that replaces […]
Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga has vowed to prove the world’s triumph over Covid-19 with next summer’s Olympics in Tokyo, telling the United Nations the games will be held safely after a year-long postponement. Making his debut speech to the international body on Friday, Suga told the UN General Assembly that Japan is committed to “leave no one behind” amid the health crisis, and argued the 2021 Olympics will serve as a symbolic victory against the virus. “In the summer of next year, Japan is determined to host the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games as proof that humanity has defeated the […]

CNBC host Jim Cramer has called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “Crazy Nancy” right to her face during an interview on Tuesday. “What deal can we have, Crazy Nancy? I’m sorry, that was the President. I have such reverence for the office. I would never use that term, but it is…”, Cramer said speaking to Pelosi. “But you just did”, the house speaker replied. Cramer then said that she knows what he means, […]
Fox News host Brian Kilmeade ramped up the network’s rhetoric against protesters against police brutality on Tuesday, calling for law enforcement to lock up left-wing activists and “interrogate them almost like you would Al Qaeda.” With protests flaring up over the Labor Day weekend—some featuring violent clashes between far-right, pro-Trump groups and antifa, the loosely affiliated, leftist anti-fascist movement—Kilmeade appeared Tuesday morning on the Fox Business Network to demand more action against antifa protesters. “We’ve seen over 100 days of protests in Portland,” Fox Business host Ashley Webster wondered aloud. “It has been another weekend of violent protests in Seattle. The […]
Another day, another off-the-rails interview featuring a Trump campaign flack fighting with a CNN host while defending President Donald Trump’s latest insane controversy and embrace of conspiracies. In a lengthy and extremely combative exchange Wednesday morning on CNN, Trump’s campaign press secretary Hogan Gidley was immediately pressed by anchor Jim Sciutto on the president’s recent visit to Kenosha, the site of violent protests following the police shooting of Jacob Blake. “During his trip, the president defended a man, a 17-year-old now accused of homicide. He did not mention Jacob Blake’s name once there,” Sciutto wondered aloud. “Why is that?” Gidley argued that […]
Numerous topics are set to be discussed, including design for ethical artificial intelligence (AI) systems, European digital sovereignty and social media, the circular economy, cross-domain hubs and decentralised governance, among many others.

Trump supporters seem to have finally decided to engage in ‘cancel culture’ on Twitter after Chris Wallace, a host on the traditionally pro-Republican Fox News network, praised the speech by the Democratic nominee Joe Biden. “I thought [Biden’s speech] was enormously effective,” Wallace said on Thursday night, after Biden’s address wrapped up the last day of the Democratic convention in Milwaukee. In Wallace’s opinion, Biden effectively countered President Donald Trump’s criticism that he was “mentally shot” and a “captive” of the left wing of the Democratic Party. “And yes, Biden was reading from the teleprompter and a prepared speech but I […]
On the first morning of the 2020 Democratic National Convention, Trump campaign spokesperson Hogan Gidley went on Fox News in an attempt to reframe the race between the president and Joe Biden. It didn’t go as planned. Host Sandra Smith asked Gidley the same question Trump was asked on Fox & Friends earlier on Monday about the biggest differences between the two candidates. While the president talked about “energy,” “fracking,” and the stock market, Gidley tried to take a broader approach. “The beauty about this campaign is you don’t have to guess how things would look under either person because they’ve […]
Birtherism is back, this time aimed squarely at Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris. And the people charged with speaking for President Donald Trump on cable news are having a lot of trouble defending his inability to outright condemn the racist attacks on his rival. It was the very first question that Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace had for senior Trump campaign adviser Steve Cortes. “Does the Trump campaign, does President Trump acknowledge that Kamala Harris is eligible to be the next vice president of the United States?” he asked. “Yes, he made this very clear in his press conference […]
Fox & Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt learned some disturbing new information on Monday morning: Children can, in fact, contract the coronavirus. “We’re all worried about sending our kids back to school, what is that going to look like for our country and for our elderly grandparents and things like that,” Earhardt said during the morning broadcast. “97,000 kids have tested positive? That was such a shock to me, because I had heard kids really don’t get it, if they do, they’re all going to be OK.” She was referring to a new report from the American Academy of Pediatrics, which found […]
LA Mayor Eric Garcetti has warned that residents hosting large home gatherings can expect their water and power utilities to be cut, a sharp escalation of the city’s strict Covid-19 measures amid a series of recent house parties. Starting on Friday, Garcetti said that the city’s Department of Water and Power (DWP) would shut off service to properties where there are “egregious” violations of local health orders, pointing to house parties in the Hollywood Hills and Calabasas in recent weeks, which he said were held in “flagrant” defiance of the law. “While we have already closed all bars and nightclubs, these […]
A group of ‘peaceful’ BLM-Antifa ‘protesters’ marched to Seattle police chief Carmen Best’s Snohomish County home this week. The police chief didn’t want these ‘peaceful protesters’ in her yard, so she wrote a letter to the City Council instructing them to “forcefully call for the end of these tactics.” It’s all fun and games to the radical left-wing officials until the militants show up to their home. Via the Seattle Times: TRENDING: Teen Activist Who Rallied to Defund Police and Remove Police from Schools Is Shot Dead in Chicago Best wrote a letter to the council Sunday after protesters showed up outside her […]
Fox News host Jeanine Pirro has been one of Donald Trump’s strongest media boosters since the very start of his presidency. But while the Trump administration claims it’s working at “warp speed” to produce a vaccine for COVID-19, she’s now saying that she doesn’t want to take it. Appearing on a recent episode of the YouTube show London Real, Pirro expressed deep skepticism about the safety of a potential vaccine and indicated she would refuse to take it even though, at 69 years old, she is among the most vulnerable age group. Host Brian Rose told Pirro that he’s “just a […]
All the way back in the middle of April, former Vice President Joe Biden issued a warning to his supporters. “Mark my words,” he said at a virtual fundraiser. “I think he is gonna try to kick back the election somehow, come up with some rationale why it can’t be held.” Fox News hosts collectively lost their minds, openly mocking the claim as alarmist and unfounded. Among them was Fox Business Network host Stuart Varney, who smirked at the time as he reported, “Joe Biden making a 2020 prediction. He thinks President Trump is going to push back the election. What’s […]
Regis Philbin, one of the country’s highest-profile on-air personalities for decades, has died of natural causes. He was 88. In a statement, his family told People: “We are deeply saddened to share that our beloved Regis Philbin passed away last night of natural causes, one month shy of his 89th birthday. His family and friends are forever grateful for the time we got to spend with him—for his warmth, his legendary sense of humor, and his singular ability to make every day into something worth talking about. We thank his fans and admirers for their incredible support over his 60-year career […]
Kellyanne Conway went on Fox News Wednesday morning to heap praise on her boss for what news anchors have been calling his “new tone” in the previous day’s coronavirus task force briefing—his first in several months. She was met with some unexpectedly tough pushback from host Martha MacCallum. “I think it was incredibly important for the president of the United States to provide information to the public, not confrontation with some press people there who were asking questions that had nothing to do with the development of vaccines and therapeutics,” Conway said, perhaps alluding to the question about alleged sex trafficker […]
After Roger Ailes was finally ousted from Fox News in 2016 for his long history of sexual harassment and assault, Brian Stelter asked former Fox host and current CNN colleague Alisyn Camerota if Fox was “rotten to its core.” “I said something like ‘no, it’s not rotten to the core, there are good people there just trying to do their jobs,’” Camerota told Stelter Tuesday morning on CNN’s New Day. “I’d like to amend my answer now, if I may. Because given everything that has come out since then, I guess it is rotten to the core. I guess even though […]
America’s ratings leader in cable news has been rocked by new allegations of sexual harassment, with the latest complaint against Fox News implicating its two biggest stars, in addition to accusing former host Ed Henry of rape. A lawsuit filed on Monday in the US District Court in New York alleged that former Fox News contributor Cathy Areu was harassed by Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity and two other Fox anchors, and that former Fox Business Network producer Jennifer Eckhart was sexually assaulted and raped by former news anchor Ed Henry. The suit alleged that Carlson and another Fox host, Howard Kurtz, tried […]
As reported exclusively earlier this morning by TGP, Roger Stone was attacked by Mo’Kelly, a leftwing radio host based out of Los Angeles. Kelly claimed that Stone referred to him as a “negro,” a charge that Stone has denied. Having known Stone for nearly a decade, this GP reporter can tell you for a fact that it was not Stone’s voice. Further, the radio show was plagued by technical difficulties, crossed signals, and feedback from Mo’Kelly’s control room. Since having his sentence commuted by President Trump last week, Stone has been the subject of harassment and deranged meltdowns from the mainstream […]
In an interview plagued with technical issues and inputs from the control room or other sources, Los Angeles radio host Mo Kelly is now falsely accusing Trump confidante and New York Times bestseller Roger Stone of calling him a “negro.” Kelly has a history of propping up far-left politicians like Pete Buttiegieg and seems to have doctored the interview with Stone or blamed abhorrent racist comments from his control room or technicians on Stone to virtue signal to the radical Black Lives Matter mob. Randy Short, a noted black Reverend who attended Stone’s trial to speak on his behalf decried Mo […]
Roger Stone appeared to use a racial slur during a live interview Saturday with a Black radio host who pressed him on whether he got special treatment from President Trump. Morris W. O’Kelly, the host of The Mo’Kelly Show, told Stone he believed his close ties with the president “weighed more heavily” in his commutation than Trump simply wanting to right a wrong in the justice system. “There are thousands of people treated unfairly daily. Hell, your number just happened to come up in the lottery. I’m guessing it was more than just luck, Roger, right?” O’Kelly said. After a pause […]
Fox News host Melissa Francis admitted on Thursday that she doesn’t trust her own network’s polling—conducted by a group considered among the industry’s most trustworthy pollsters—while also claiming on-air that she deliberately misleads pollsters when they call her. With President Donald Trump trailing former Vice President Joe Biden by double digits in many national and battleground state polls, a narrative has formed that there are so-called “secret Trump voters” who don’t feel comfortable expressing their support for the president. A recent Monmouth poll in Pennsylvania, which finds Biden up by 13 points, shows that a majority of voters in the state […]
Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto cut into a White House speech by President Donald Trump on Thursday to once again correct some mischaracterizations the president made, specifically over former President Barack Obama’s economic record, which Cavuto noted was very solid. In what was yet another campaign-type speech on White House grounds, the president blasted regulations put in place by the Obama administration in the wake of the 2008 recession, claiming the former president had destroyed jobs in the process. While the speech aired live on Fox News, Cavuto cut away in order to issue a fact-check for his viewers. “I do […]
Cannon’s comments on race and skin colour have drawn widespread condemnation, and his employers at ViacomCBS dropped him from the show he produced for the company. Media megastar Nick Cannon has apologised to the Jewish community for saying that Caucasian and Jewish people are inferior to darker-skinned people. The TV host and actor on Wednesday took the blame for spreading “hateful propaganda and stereotypical rhetoric that pained another community”. “I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth,” he tweeted. I want to assure […]
The Daily Show host Trevor Noah checked in on Tuesday with Tucker Carlson, “Fox News primetime star and mom haircut model.” The previous night, Carlson finally addressed the controversy surrounding his show’s top writer, Blake Neff, who was fired by Fox for a history of racist, misogynistic and homophobic online posts. “So Fox News got rid of the guy,” Noah said, “but it appears Tucker Carlson might have some mixed feelings about how it all went down.” After telling viewers that he does not “endorse” Neff’s comments, Carlson said, “we should also point out to the ghouls now beating their chests […]

President Donald Trump threatened to “cut off funding” to schools that don’t reopen amidst the coronavirus pandemic on Wednesday. And his Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is right there with him. On Fox News Wednesday afternoon, host Neil Cavuto repeatedly pressed DeVos on the administration’s official “schools must open” policy. But she didn’t budge, dismissing the risks to not only school children but especially to teachers and their families. “There’s nothing in the data that suggests that it would not be appropriate to have kids in school,” DeVos claimed. “And while there may be spikes in certain areas and certain communities, those […]
Less than a year after quitting Fox News amid clashes with his right-wing colleagues, Shepard Smith is returning to cable news. The consummate newsman has signed a deal with CNBC to host a nightly evening news broadcast, a person with direct knowledge of the deal confirmed to The Daily Beast on Wednesday. Smith’s hard-news show, appropriately titled The News with Shepard Smith, will air at 7 p.m., following Jim Cramer’s Mad Money, and is set to premiere sometime before the election. The former longtime Fox anchor had been in talks with MSNBC, CNN, and Vice before ultimately signing with the financial […]
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – US President Donald Trump will hold an outdoor campaign rally in New Hampshire on July 11, his team announced amid a continuing spread of the coronavirus in the US. “President @realDonaldTrump will host an outdoor #MAGA [Make America Great Again] Rally on Sat., July 11 at 8:00 p.m. ET [00:00 GMT on July 12] in Portsmouth, NH,” the Trump Campaign said on its official Twitter page on Sunday.

This is the modern day left — America hating, whitey hating bigots. On Sunday morning Tiffany Cross filled in for Joy Reid on MSNBC. During her monologue Cross labeled the 4th of July “Independence Day for white men” and compared Trump voters to “colonizing slave owners.” Tiffany Cross: And so here we are celebrating the birth of a nation, independence for white men at a site described by one native American activists as “a symbol of white supremacy.” Trump choosing Mount Rushmore for a 4th of July campaign stop is just like when he chose Tulsa, the site of the 1921 […]
Epic Games, the developer of the massively popular Fortnite, has announced that it will air a series of conversations about race, featuring “prominent” black voices from various sectors. The hit game, estimated to be played by a staggering 350 million people worldwide, will host the conversation series titled ‘We The People’ on Saturday. The program will be aired in the game’s Battle Royale game mode. Viewers will hear from speakers who include Elaine Welteroth, former editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue. Welteroth headed the magazine until September 2017 and was praised for injecting more social justice and politics content into the publication. She […]
German MPs have followed their UK and French colleagues, backing legislation that carries a fine or even a prison term for taking unsolicited photos under somebody’s clothing. The Bundestag voted in favor of a law on “improving privacy protection” this Friday, thus outlawing the practice. From now on, anyone trying to film under somebody’s clothing in order to see their underwear or private parts will face a fine or a maximum prison term of up to two years. Under existing laws, upskirting was deemed a minor offence punishable only by a small fine. Minister Christine Lambrecht, who championed the legislation, welcomed […]
Despite seeing a major exodus of advertisers over some of the statements made during his prime time show, Carlson is seeing the number of viewers going through the roof, with conservative Republicans being his primary audience. Famous conservative Fox News host, Tucker Carlson, could be the top choice for Republican presidential nominee in 2024, if he decides to run for office, Politico reported, citing accounts of numerous GOP strategists, former campaigners, and Trump administration officials. The media outlet says that Republicans increasingly see Carlson as the main proponent of so-called “Trumpism”, an approach to running the US introduced by the current president. […]
Now that President Donald Trump has finally said that he’s “all for masks” amid a massive surge in coronavirus cases, Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy on Thursday wondered why wearing a mask to slow the spread of COVID-19 ever became politicized. “For some reason, over the last couple of weeks, a month, masks have become political,” the Fox host remarked during an interview. If he wants to identify that mysterious “some reason,” he needn’t look any further than his own colleagues. Since the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak in the U.S. months ago, Fox News hosts and guests have repeatedly […]
Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy repeatedly pushed influential Republicans on Tuesday to convince President Donald Trump to publicly wear a face mask amid the surging coronavirus pandemic, telling them that it would be a “powerful symbol” and “set a good example.” With the virus now raging through several Republican-led states, many conservative elected officials and leaders have openly supported mask-wearing to help stem the spread of the disease. On Sunday, Vice President Mike Pence implored Americans to wear face coverings during an event in Texas, where new cases are exploding. The president, however, continues to refuse to don a mask […]
Fox News host Laura Ingraham spoke in stark and apocalyptic terms about the coming election on Monday night, warning viewers that “more chaos is coming” and that they needed to “suit up for this battle” because it was do-or-die time. The right-wing primetime star opened up her Monday evening broadcast by sniping at “conservatives on the sideline in this battle” while the country “is under attack,” taking aim at Never Trump Republicans for trying to help elect Democrats this cycle. She also blasted conservative politicians who she claimed weren’t stepping up to fight back as Black Lives Matter protests rage across […]
The Democratic National Convention Committee on Wednesday announced plans to host a scaled-back, largely virtual convention as coronavirus cases surge in several cities. Former Vice President Joe Biden will accept the nomination in Milwaukee, and the Wisconsin city will serve as an anchor for “both live broadcasts and curated content” from other satellite locations across the country. “Leadership means being able to adapt to any situation,” DNC Chairman Tom Perez said in a statement. “That’s exactly what we’ve done with our convention. Unlike this president, Joe Biden and Democrats are committed to protecting the health and safety of the American people. […]
If there’s one Trumpland rule that everyone knows about, it’s don’t even mention the name Barron Trump. Apparently, Fox & Friends host Ainsley Earhardt didn’t get the memo. With everything going on in the country right now, Earhardt used her one question for White House counselor Kellyanne Conway Wednesday morning to ask about an obscure tweet from the host of the Food Network’s Halloween Baking Championship. “So, Kellyanne, it’s one thing to criticize a president, but it’s another thing to criticize his, or one day her, children,” Earhardt began. “And that’s what happened. This guy John Henson, I used to think […]
Since the killing of George Floyd on 25 May, an anti-racism movement has occurred worldwide and many companies and individuals are facing up to racist actions in the past. Jimmy Kimmel’s apology is one of many and comes as the entertainment industry confronts its offensive depictions of black characters. Late night tv host Jimmy Kimmel has apologised after receiving complaints over his use of blackface makeup while impersonating black celebrities such as basketball player Karl Malone, Oprah Winfrey and Snoop Dogg in past sketches. The 52-year-old television host issued a statement on Tuesday saying, “I have long been reluctant to address […]

Cristiano Ronaldo hit the post from the spot after a VAR check and Ante Rebic was sent off for a wild high challenge with less than 20 minutes gone as the latest major league comeback started with a bang in the Coppa Italia. Ronaldo drilled a penalty against the woodwork as football exploded back into life with a remarkable start in the semi-final second leg between Juventus and AC Milan. The lethal striker had a golden opportunity to put the hosts ahead with 15 minutes gone after a lengthy VAR check adjudged a handball to have taken place inside the penalty area, but […]
Joe Biden’s campaign has made it clear that the former vice president does not support the campaign to “defund the police.” On Wednesday night, The Daily Show host Trevor Noah tried to see if he could get him there. “You know, many activists and organizers have come out saying, there have been repeated attempts to reform many police departments,” Noah said. “Were it not for civilian cameras, we wouldn’t know the truth oftentimes.” As police departments continue to be “contradicted” by video evidence, the host asked Biden directly, “If you were to become president, do you think that there would be […]
Meghan McCain asked Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) what she may have thought was going to be a “gotcha” question Monday morning on The View. Harris wasn’t having it. “Many activists right now are calling for a defunding of the police,” McCain said when it was her turn to question the senator, citing the Minneapolis City Council vote that would go even further in dismantling that city’s police department. “I want to know from you, do you support defunding and removing the police from American communities, and if not, why do you think there is such a hard time being differentiated right […]
It’s been 10 days since Trevor Noah delivered a sobering 18-minute monologue on the police killing of George Floyd that quickly racked up tens of millions of views across various social platforms and helped change the conversation about the “social contract” between black people and cops.

Wednesday night on Fox News, Laura Ingraham defended New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees’ right to an opinion about Colin Kaepernick and other NFL players kneeling during the national anthem. Noting that Brees is a “person” who has “some worth,” she said, “I mean, this is beyond football, though. This is totalitarian conduct. This is Stalinist!” This is the same Laura Ingraham who told LeBron James in 2018 to “keep the political commentary” to himself and “shut up and dribble.” On Thursday, James used Ingraham hypocrisy to make the point that #BlackLivesMatter activists have been trying to make for years. “If […]
Rudy Giuliani’s defense of Donald Trump escalated into an ill-tempered row with Piers Morgan, as the pair traded insults over the US president’s response to the wide-scale protests sparked by George Floyd’s death. During an interview on ITV’s ‘Good Morning Britain’ on Thursday, Giuliani – who is Trump’s lawyer – hit out at Morgan’s co-host Susanna Reid for suggesting the US president’s recent tweet in which he declared that “When the looting starts, the shooting starts” – referring to the protests and riots – was in any way racist. The tweet was subsequently censored by Twitter. Also on rt.com Fists fly […]
Towards the end of his interview with Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) on Sunday morning, Fox News host Chris Wallace forced his guest to reckon with the series of incendiary tweets President Donald Trump posted over the weekend as anti-police violence protests raged across the country. Paraphrasing his previous guest, Dr. Cornel West, the Fox News Sunday host said, “We have to talk not only about what is going on in the riots in the street, we have to talk about what is going on among people at the highest levels of our society.” Wallace began with the tweet that Twitter hid […]
US 22:43 GMT 20.05.2020Get short URL Earlier on Wednesday, US President Donald Trump again referenced a conspiracy theory related to the death of a young intern to Joe Scarborough, which happened some 19 years ago, insisting that the “cold case” against the MSNBC host be reopened. The co-host of the MSNBC show ‘Morning Joe’, Mika Brzezinski, tweeted that she will discuss banning US President Donald Trump from Twitter with the social media giant’s CEO, Jack Dorsey, urging Dorsey to respond immediately to how company policies are being “violated every day by President Trump”. After repeatedly addressing Dorsey in her tweets, asking […]
Trevor Noah is horrified that President Donald Trump is apparently taking hydroxychloroquine against the recommendation of the FDA. But he seemed equally appalled Tuesday night at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s reaction to that news. “I would rather he not be taking something that has not been approved by the scientists,” Pelosi said on CNN this week, “especially in his age group and in his, shall we say, weight group, morbidly obese, they say. So I think it’s not a good idea.” “Oh no, Nancy!” the Daily Show host said with his head in his hands after playing the clip. “‘Morbidly obese?’ […]

According to Seth Meyers, one of the “enduring images” of the coronavirus crisis might end up being President Donald Trump touring a mask factory without a mask on as the song “Live and Let Die” played in the background. “Welcome to the resistance, Honeywell factory floor DJ?” he joked. “‘Live and Let Die’ playing while Trump tours a mask factory during a pandemic is the surest sign yet that we’re living in a video game,” the Late Night host added Wednesday night. Meyers went on to call Trump’s characterization of the American people as “warriors” in the fight against the coronavirus […]
