When Donald Trump was seeking the Republican nomination in 2016, Lindsey Graham delivered a warning to his party. “If we nominate Donald Trump,” the South Carolina senator tweeted, “we will get destroyed and we will deserve it.” It took quite a while for his prediction to come to pass, but it seems to be coming…

Ironically, Fox News made the most impactful media call of the presidential race when they called Arizona for Joe Biden on election night.

Donald Trump‘s performance during the COVID-19 pandemic has been an utter failure. It has been so pathetic, in fact, that the president himself contracted the virus and needed an experimental cocktail of drugs to get better. The supporters of the president, both in government and in cable news, will do anything to absolve Trump of…
Amy Coney Barrett is now a sitting member of the United States Supreme Court. Her journey there was quite disgraceful.

And as they commonly do, Republicans have been quick…

Republican political strategist and campaign consultant Ed Rollins was on the Fox Business News program hosted by Lou Dobbs and stuck his sexist foot in his mouth as he attacked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). The ancient right-wing operative dismissively referred to the 29-year-old Congresswoman as “the little girl” with a big “mouth.” It didn’t take…
