Violent anti- ICE protests have continued to take place in Minneapolis despite a reduction in the number of agents on the ground in the state of Minnesota.

WSJ Columnist Peggy Noonan Loses Her Noodle Over Washington Post Layoffs
The Washington Post will be thinner. Life will go on. Democracy will continue. America doesn’t rise or fall with the fate of one Democrat-boosting newspaper. Take a pill, Peggy.
Kid Rock Crushes Bad Bunny in Poll on Competing Halftime Shows

Financial Magazine’s Box-Office Bomb Prediction Blows Up as “Melania” Outperforms Expectations
You might not want to rely on investment advice from the weekly financial and investment magazine Barron’s, judging by its bad market call regarding the expected opening week take of the Melania Trump documentary, which opened on Friday: “The Melania Movie Looks Like a Box-Office Flop. What It Means for Amazon.”
PBS Promotes Race-Obsessed Sportswriter and Lionizes a Stalinist Toady
One way “public” broadcasters demonstrate their dramatic leftist bias is by which books and authors they promote. On January 27, they featured an interview by co-anchor Geoff Bennett of Howard Bryant — former ESPN The Magazine columnist, and perpetual racial grievance machine — lionizing the famous black Stalinist puppet and actor Paul Robeson.
In Real Life, There’s No New “CBS Newsmax” Under Bari Weiss
The leftists on social media have hilariously caricatured CBS News under new Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss as “CBS Newsmax,” like it’s lurched dramatically to the right. But if you’re monitoring CBS in real life, there’s plenty of evidence that “classic CBS” is still operating. In recent days, CBS has proven to be worse than ABC and NBC in its tilt to the left.
TV News Hammers ICE Border Enforcement with 93% Negative Coverage
MRC analysts pored through every report about the situation in Minneapolis which aired on ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News, from January 7 through January 17, 2026.

The White House’s Karoline Leavitt Destroys Far-Left Hack Over ICE Hatred
Towards the end of Thursday’s White House press briefing, The Hill’s Niall Stanage told Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt that an ICE officer “acted recklessly and killed” Minnesota resident Renee Good “unjustifiably” and thus there was no way ICE does “everything correctly.” Thankfully, Leavitt promptly shoved this partisan tool into a rhetorical locker.
Liberal Journalists Lose Their Noodles Over CBS’s Tony Dokoupil’s Trump Interview
Because it was a respectfully but substantive conversation and not a shoutfest, liberal fiends turned into tween girls playing bully at lunch.
Director Judd Apatow Claims USA Is a “Dictatorship” at Golden Globes
Overall, the 83rd annual Golden Globes was obnoxious, pretentious and tiresome. Few of the actors had any real star power or charisma. Hollywood’s golden era is long gone, but its clueless celebrities still think they have cultural power to lecture audiences.
Liberal Media Defenders Turn to Leaks, Mean Girl Smears to Attack CBS’s Dokoupil, Weiss
Along with the liberal media meltdowns that resulted from incoming CBS Evening News anchor Tony Dokoupil’s brief commentary about the state of the legacy media, the onslaught continued into the weekend following both the publication of the newscast’s core values and subsequent think pieces and anonymously-sourced invective at Dokoupil and CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.
ABC News Breathlessly Joins Fake “Cognitive Decline” Drumbeat
A pattern emerges: after years of ignoring Joe Biden’s glaring mental decline, the elitist media want to manufacture an early cognitive decline narrative with regard to President Donald Trump. We earlier spotlighted CNN’s attempt: here’s ABC’s.
When Republicans Do Long Interviews with Liberal Journalists
You can’t win by granting access, and you can’t win by denying it. The authors and activists of the Democrat press approach Trump with the mentality of “heads we win, tails you lose.”
Joe Rogan and Right-Wingers Snubbed in Golden Globe Best Podcast List
Over at his kvetchfest of a website Status, Oliver Darcy complained that the Globe pickers wanted to platform “toxic figures” “who spend their days radicalizing audiences and inflaming the culture wars.” Darcy wants conservatives to be removed from all platforms, including awards shows. Maybe it’s time for Darcy to do a victory dance.
Former Anchor Connie Chung Freaks Out Over CBS’s New Management
There is something about the podcast world that encourages former network journalists to let the mask slip and reveal that they really were the liberal activists critics alleged they were all along. Former CBS anchor Connie Chung was the latest example
Apple News Pushes Left-Wing Agenda for Second Week in a Row
Apple News failed to highlight a single right-leaning source for the second week in a row, pushing stories from 82 left-leaning new sites while completely hiding stories from outlets many Americans prefer. These cherry-picked articles consistently reflect a leftist bias, suggesting that Apple News is using its power to push a political agenda.
“The View’s” Fake Conservative Defends Floozy Lib Journo Olivia Nuzzi
As she did just over a year ago, Alyssa Farah Griffin, the faux conservative for ABC’s The View, came to the defense of Vanity Fair editor Olivia Nuzzi, the liberal journalist who cheated on her then-fiancé Ryan Lizza with Secretary RFK Jr. During Thursday’s episode, Farah Griffin proclaimed floozy Nuzzi was “one of the best writers of my generation.
MSNBC’s Election Night Was the Brain Rot You’d Expect
Election Night on the soon-to-be-former MSNBC was about as you’d expect: equal parts liberal brain rot and, on a night where the left made significant gains, a twinge of smug insufferability.
Will Anyone Buy CNN’s Second Attempt at Streaming?
CNN better hope CNN All Access succeeds or we’ll be back to mocking them like we did after CNN+ died, which came and went in fewer time than New Coke and cost as much as 240 million pizzas and 25 Obama mansions.
The KJP Book Is Worse Than You Could Have Possibly Imagined
Jean-Pierre’s book broke no new ground on the inner workings of the White House. Rather, she offered meandering, repetitive excuses for President Biden and denied his cognitive decline. Overall, she penned 172 pages of texts that were comical, insipid, scatterbrained, sloppy, and vapid.
Networks Still Fawning Over No Kings Protests as Ground-Breaking, Ignoring Ugly Signs
ABC, CBS, and NBC were still harping Monday morning on the No Kings protests, ignoring the ugly signs from some of the rallies, including more than a few celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The coverage unsurprisingly paled in comparison to how they covered the Tea Party rallies, which we chronicled ahead of the 2010 midterms.
New York Magazine Mourns Exposure of Maine Dem Golden Boy Graham Platner as Violence-Hyping Extremist
Not only is the Honeymoon Over for the Once But Not Future Golden Boy of Democrat Politics but it appears time to play Taps on his brief, heavily-hyped, political career.
