Last week President Donald J. Trump held a press conference that sent the media into paroxysms of rage as he stood before them again calling them out for their lies and their “very fake news.” For days afterward they spilled tons of ink and spent miles of bandwidth calling him “un-American” for attacking them. But Trump is right. The truth is the media is just furious at being called on their lies.
On February 16, President Trump led a tour de force of a press conference going well over an hour and ricocheting about to so many topics that the media simply couldn’t keep up with it all. But one thing is sure, the media was quite able to focus on Trump’s attacks on them. And that took all their attention.
During the press conference, Trump slammed the media. At one point he re-branded CNN from merely “fake news” to “very fake news.” Of course he said it in jest and many in the White House press room laughed when he said it. But the facts bear Trump out, after all.
Trump also talked about the leaks the press have run concerning his administration’s inner workings. “The leaks are absolutely real,” Trump insisted. “The news is fake, because so much of the news is fake.”
In other words, there really are leakers inside his administration — and all of them are Obama appointees who are still there because they have yet to be fired — but the “news is fake” because the media then uses those leaks to invent a whole raft of BS stories from them.

Trump is Right, the Media is Crooked and Full of Liars and They are Furious for Being Called On It”
President Donald Trump is once again taking his case right to the people of the United States and once again he got the unwitting aide of the press corps to help him do it. And even as the regular voters are cheering, the press is booing the whole thing.
Democrats are so in the tank for open borders and the importation of illegal aliens that they are even working themselves into a froth to protest the deportation of illegals convicted of violent crimes against Americans.
The media is still telling America that Trump is “the most unpopular president in history” or some such thing. But just what are President Trump’s approval ratings? And barring those numbers — and even more importantly — how popular are his policies?
Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol suggested Feb. 7 that the federal government should use immigration from Mexico to replace the American white working class.
Showing once again that it is impossible to be a logical, thinking human AND be a liberal at the same time, Katie “Fake News” Couric recently noted that a fetus in the womb can “feel” transgender and to “think” it has gender issues while still in the womb.
Liberals have taken to belching out the false claim that “immigration made America great” as an excuse to allow unending waves of Muslim “refugees” into the U.S. They say these Muslims only want to come to the U.S. and join our country and to “better their lives.” However, economic statistics clearly show that this is a lie. There “refugees” aren’t coming here to join the great American experiment. They are merely coming here for free stuff courtesy of the American taxpayer.
A “sports writer” for USA Today recently disgorged a piece of hate loosely disguised as sports commentary that reveals how liberals will never allow for opinions contrary to their own in any venue even in something as light and inconsequential as sports.
The left and their minions in the media are losing their collective mind over President Donald J. Trump’s temporary halt to immigration from a list of terror-sponsoring nations and it appears that they are trying to bully him into withdrawing his order. Thus far they are not winning… and that’s a good thing, too.
There used to be an axiom in political reporting that the children — especially the smallest ones — of politicians should remain off limits in the back and forth political attacks over policy. But now that Donald Trump is President of the United States, it appears that the media no longer cares if people viciously attack little kids. NBC is an inglorious example of that today since a writer for “Saturday Night Live” called ten-year-old Barron Trump a “serial killer” and NBC has done nothing about it.
On the day Donald J. Trump took the oath of office he took time out to sign a few early Executive Orders in the Oval Office. Members of the media, though were fixated on their claim that Trump took out the statuette bust of Martin Luther King, Jr., and replaced it with Winston Churchill. But their reports which went viral among liberals is built on lies. Trump didn’t remove the King bust at all. It’s just more liberal fake news.
As 2016 came to an end, cat video and click bait website BuzzFeed became the toast of the liberal media by publishing a piece supposedly “proving” that conservative media is all “fake news.” But now, just as we prepare for the inauguration of our next president, BuzzFeed itself has been slammed by nearly everyone — left and right — for publishing the ultimate in fake news with a false story smearing Donald Trump.
As she accepted an award last weekend, Meryl Streep, the purportedly “celebrated” Hollywood actress, dredged up the lie that President-Elect Donald J. Trump “made fun of a reporter’s disability” during the recently concluded campaign for the White House. Streep’s charge, though, is an outright lie and here are the facts you need to know to combat this lie.
On January 4 a white teenager with special needs was found wandering aimlessly in a black Chicago neighborhood and when police found him he had a frightening tale of race-based torture to tell. But before he was rescued Facebook users were treated to videos of four black kids hooting and laughing as they beat the teen bloody while yelling “F white people” and “F Trump.” Unsurprisingly, because it is a white person being tortured, liberals from coast to coast are insisting this isn’t a racist hate crime.
A recent USA Today article assessing former Red Sox great Curt Schilling’s chances to win a berth in the Baseball Hall of Fame concludes that his conservative political ideas will prevent him from being afforded that honor.
Since November 9, the day Donald J. Trump became the President-Elect of the United States, the media has erupted in reports of “hate crimes” against a large swath of liberal focus groups, especially Muslims. However, despite early reports, it also turns out that nearly every single one of those reports turned out to be a hoax. So, here are the top thirty fake hate crimes since Election Day.
Throughout American history, leftists have proven far more dangerous to the lives of public officials than Americans of other ideologies and with the unhinged way the left is reacting to the impending Trump presidency one has to wonder if they are fomenting a climate where one of their brood will take up arms against our new commander in chief.
As the weeks between Election Day and Inauguration day tick down, the hate-filled, distempered, downright mentally deranged reaction of liberals of all stripes to the coming Trump era is jarring to say the least. So much for the more caring, more adult, smarter, and more serious liberals we were told were going to rule the country in 2008 when Obama first won the White House.
As the western world prepares for Christmas Day, a celebration of love, a time for family, and the hope of world peace, Muslims are gathering to celebrate the sort of carnage and death they happily promulgate during every other day of the year. Christmas 2016 is no different as terror attacks blanket the world like a freshly fallen blanket of snow.
You may recall the venom spat by people such as former sports reporter turned liberal ranter Keith Olbermann when people said they’d never call Barack Obama “their” president? Well, now that Donald J. Trump has clinched the Electoral College vote, Olbermann himself is doing exactly what his ilk once criticized by acidly demanding that fans refuse to ever call Trump “Mr. President.”
President-Elect Donald Trump has been giving the left fits over his choices — and even his rumored picks — for his nascent administration and cabinet. But so far the left has lost its lunch the most over the choice of Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson for Secretary of State.
A group of hateful lefties who are hiding behind anonymous Twitter names have organized a boycott of advertisers whose ads have been appearing regularly on Breitbart News. Unfortunately, the boycott is working causing at least 47 of these companies to flee the conservative powerhouse.
Jon Stewart, former host of the left-wing Comedy Network cable TV show, “The Daily Show,” had a LOT to say during a recent interview with New York Times editor Chris Smith and with his uppercut smacks to the left in general and Barack Obama in particular, some of what he said is sure to infuriate his fellow leftists. But in fact, Stewart was right on with many of his criticisms.
