CNN’s Chris Cuomo finds himself under intense scrutiny today. And the heat doesn’t appear to be dissipating. On Monday night, the CNN anchor did his best to distance himself from the latest revelations involving his older brother. During his show, Cuomo never mentioned the allegations that he played a controversial role in then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s defense. Cuomo eventually resigned over mounting sexual harassment allegations. But not before his younger brother tried to bail him out.

Jack Dorsey is stepping down as Twitter CEO. After co-founding Twitter in 2006, Dorsey became CEO in 2007. Under his leadership as chairman and again as CEO, he transformed the company into a social media giant. Today, the site is valued at approximately $8 billion. Dorsey blocked Donald Trump’s account following the 2021 attack on the United States Capitol. Meanwhile, dozens of official and pro-Taliban accounts remain active on the microblogging platform. CNN technology reporter Brian Fung reports that Twitter’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Parag Agrawal will replace Dorsey. Agrawal is already drawing controversy for a tweet from 2010 quoting…

A former New York Times reporter assigned to cover the riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin during the summer of 2020 soon found out that the narrative promoted by the mainstream media over the “protests” wasn’t true. But the Times didn’t want Nellie Bowles’ reporting published until after the presidential election. Bowles explained the prevailing narrative in the Times’ newsroom in her Substack newsletter: Until quite recently, the mainstream liberal argument was that burning down businesses for racial justice was both good and healthy. Burnings allowed for the expression of righteous rage, and the businesses all had insurance to rebuild. But That…

Another way to put it would be “meet the most obtuse member of the Squad.” Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) has found a perfect district for herself. However, her views are radioactive for Democrats in Congress who represent swing states and purplish districts.

There’s more than a path out of the political wilderness for Donald Trump. Indeed, if the presidential election took place today Trump could win. He certainly would win if these numbers in these states are accurate. As POLITICO reports: The five states — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — delivered a total of 73 electoral votes in 2020, enough to produce a decisive Electoral College victory for Biden. Since then, Trump has held four rallies, endorsed dozens of candidates and played a key role in shaping contests that could put his allies in top offices in those states in…

Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm has been leading the fight for criminal justice reform for 15 years. While the campaign to rehabilitate most prisoners has merits, Chisholm finds himself under fire following a deadly car rampage at a Christmas parade. The problem? By his own admission, the esteemed DA said that his office set an “inappropriately low” bail for the prime suspect in Sunday’s attack in nearby Waukesha. A Catastrophe in the Making Two days before allegedly killing six people, Darrell Edward Brooks Jr. made bail (set at $1,000) over a domestic violence charge. According to police reports, he…

Senate candidate Sean Parnell has ended his quest to become Pennsylvania’s next U.S. senator. Parnell, who won the endorsement of Donald Trump, faced allegations of abuse from his estranged wife. Though they concerned many Republicans, Parnell remained in the race. Until Monday evening that is, when a judge awarded Parnell’s wife sole legal custody of the couple’s three children. Before making the announcement, Parnell called Trump. POLITICO reports: “I strongly disagree with the ruling today and I’m devastated by the decision,” Parnell said in a statement. “I plan on asking the court to reconsider this decision. In the order, two…

A new report details how the Gates Foundation has subsidized the world’s top media outlets for years. Journalist Alan Macleod convincingly argues that those donations account for Bill Gates’ fawning media coverage, at least until his recent divorce and comments about Jeffrey Epstein. As Macleod explains: While other billionaires’ media empires are relatively well known, the extent to which Gates’s cash underwrites the modern media landscape is not. After sorting through over 30,000 individual grants, MintPress can reveal that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) has made over $300 million worth of donations to fund media projects. Bankrolling the World’s Most…

A proposed rule from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has a growing number of Republicans led by Rep. Michael Cloud (R-Texas) worried. They believe the agency might use it to one day create a backdoor gun registry. And regardless of Congress’s wishes. As Fox News reports: The recently-proposed rule essentially removes the 20-year burn date that the federal firearms licensees must abide by, requiring them to preserve firearm purchase records older than two decades.

Fox News contributors Jonah Goldberg and Stephen Hayes have resigned over Tucker Carlson’s documentary on the United States Capitol attack. The conservative journalists and authors have worked for Fox since 2009. Carlson’s documentary, “Patriot Purge,” baselessly calls the Capitol Building attack a false flag operation intended to entrap Trump supporters. Fox’s news side hasn’t found any evidence to support that claim. As Mediaite reports: According to a report by New York Times media columnist Ben Smith, the two men discussed quitting Fox soon after the trailer for Carlson’s special was first posted online on Oct. 27, with Goldberg texting Hayes “I’m tempted just to quit…
