Accuracy in Media

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel went after the Senate Republicans’ latest effort to replace parts of Obamacare led by Sens. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). The media covered it as if Kimmel were a legitimate news source, but forgot to cover how Kimmel was fed Democratic Party talking points in his anti-GOP monologues. The […]

Writers on The Washington Post’s editorial board may not be fans of Donald Trump, but they aren’t too crazy about the Democrats’ latest plan to win back voters either. The Post gave Democrats credit for rolling out a new package aimed at what they called the “struggling middle class,” but it questioned whether their “A Better […]

A great take over at The Federalist on how the media ignored an important legal story: Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) confirmed last week that the Obama administration violated the Constitution by making Obamacare payments: In deciding to pay the cost-sharing subsidies without an appropriation, the Obama administration and its allies have endorsed a strategy of ends […]

In 2013, Chuck Schumer blasted the alleged obstructionist tactics by Republicans to use the filibuster in the Senate. Harry Reid, who was the Senate Majority Leader at the time, then invoked the “nuclear option” to override the Republican minority opposition to Obama’s picks to lead federal agencies.

The contrast in headlines is interesting, when you look at it. In 2013, then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid tossed aside the filibuster by Republicans to invoke the ‘nuclear option.’ The Democratic Party then used it to appoint agency officials for then-President Barack Obama.

Preston was also critical of Obamacare. “The current system is flawed as well, and it needs to be fixed,” Preston […]

MSNBC Hardball host Chris Matthews’ quest to find a Democrat to define the difference between a socialist and a Democrat continued on Tuesday when he asked Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) to do so. Matthews had previously asked DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton for a definition, without success, and […]

Good decision, Chuck. The Free Beacon reported: The most influential Jewish member of Congress announced on Thursday he would oppose the Iran nuclear deal that’s being aggressively pushed by the Obama administration. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.), the third-ranking member in the chamber, said he opposed the deal because he did not trust Iran would change, […]

The longtime New York senator wrapped up succession to Harry Reid very quickly after Reid announced his retirement last week. As the Washington Examiner said: “Sen. Charles Schumer was all but crowned successor to Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid Friday, capping nearly a decade of meticulous planning and labor with the top Democratic leadership post […]
