Fox Highlights California Illegal Who Murdered After His ICE Detainer Was Ignored
In the past several days, a number of Fox News shows have informed viewers of how blue sanctuary states endanger their residents after an illegal alien from Venezuela murdered a California man after an ICE detainer was ignored. Fox also showed part of the surveillance video that actually recorded the murder.
On Wednesday's Fox News @ Night, reporter Chanley Painter recounted for viewers that Marcos Iriarte-Valdez had been arrested twice for burglary, and committed a murder the day after a judge released him:
CNN's Burnett Platforms Courtroom Sketch Artist Saying Mangione Showed Empathy During Plea
On Friday, Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty in federal court to stalking and killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December of 2024, by shooting him in the back at point blank range outside a Hilton hotel in Manhattan. Even the liberal media almost unanimously reported that Mangione, who had attained hero status to some on the radical left, had showed no remorse while admitting his guilt, or said nothing at all about his demeanor, but on Friday night CNN's Erin Burnett OutFront, found an exception.
Friday morning, minutes after the guilty plea, on CNN's Inside Politics, Dana Bash brought on Correspondent Kara Scannell, who was in the
PBS Prods Judge to Blame 'Rhetoric From the Trump Administration' for Threats
Wednesday's PBS News Hour crusaded for nine minutes against threats to federal judges with two guests, both with personal experiences of attacks and harassment, one scary, one tragic, supposedly riled up by inflammatory rhetoric emanating from the Trump Administration.
Yet the News Hour itself, under the guise of objective journalism, has lobbed its own inflammatory rhetoric against its conservative ideological enemies that currently hold positions at the Supreme Court, vilifying them and corroding citizen trust in the high court.
William Brangham, Host: Hundreds of federal judges across the country have received threats against themselves and their families this year. The U.S. Marshals Service reports security incidents of
Chuckle at Chelsea Handler: She Says Roe vs. Wade's Still In Effect, and Hates 'Misinformation'
It's absolutely amazing sometimes to ponder how leftist celebrities think they are the smartest people in the room, and no one on their side seems to correct them when they step in a puddle of stupid. Breitbart News tweeted out on Friday that comedian Chelsea Handler appeared on Kara Swisher's Pivot podcast, and somehow claimed that Todd Blanche was going to overturn Roe vs. Wade -- when the Supreme Court did that four years ago.
HANDLER: We're gonna get Todd Blanche. He's gonna be confirmed -- and he's gonna overturn Roe v. Wade. We're all sitting around -- all these men have powerful platforms
JOURNALISTIC EOD: Sunday Shows Help Dems Defuse AOC's 'Woke One Was Crazy' Quote
The Elitist Media had a narrative bomb on its hands after Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said last week that "Woke One is crazy." This week, several Sunday shows enabled Democrats as they tried to defuse that bomb and scurry away unscathed.
The original "Woke One is crazy" quote, of course, was delivered during Jon Karl's softball interview of AOC on ABC's This Week. There was no followup. As we noted, this stemmed from Karl's interest in helping Democrats disavow everything that might be controversial coming from the current crop of DSA Democrats.
After a week of controversy, it's clear that simple disavowal isn't enough. Watch as CNN's Jake
AWFUL: Jake Tapper Uses the Fall of Kabul to Hit Trump, Hegseth on Iran
Today's terrible end-of-show editorial by Jake Tapper on CNN's State of the Union is a desecration of the memory of the Fall of Kabul at the expense of The Current Thing. Tapper took duct tape and baling wire and tied the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan to the ongoing operation in Iran and the current narrative over conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln.
Watch the editorial as aired to close out CNN's State of the Union on Sunday, August 16th, 2026:

The Sunday Shows Are Still Pushing Fake 'Moderate vs. Progressive' Narrative
The Democratic Party is in the throes of an attempted takeover and hollowing out by the Democratic Socialists of America. The Elitist Media are still attempting to explain this away by labeling the sides with anodyne descriptors, falsely framing the primary battle as "moderates vs. progressives."
Here's how Martha Raddatz framed the primary debate while recapping a last week's Midwestern primaries on ABC's This Week:
The media framing for the mid-terms: “Moderate and progressive wings” in Democratic Party. ABC’s @MarthaRaddatz described left-wing liberal Democrats as “moderates.” On @ThisWeekABC, she labeled as “moderate” Wisconsin’s David Crowley and Minnesota’s Angie Craig. pic.twitter.com/icnaNhsIDT

Even Democrat Massachusetts Lawmakers Call State's New Abortion-Until-Birth Law 'Barbaric'
Nine Democrat Massachusetts state representatives stood up to 123 of their party colleagues by voting against a bill legalizing abortion up until the moment of birth. Now that Democrat Governor Maura Healy has signed the bill into law, some of them are beginning to speak out publicly.
Even though the bill was fated to pass due to the overwhelming Democrat supermajority in the state's House, the nine Democrats, at least one of whom is pro-abortion, voted against removing Massachusetts restrictions on abortions after 24 weeks. On Monday, August 10, Gov. Healy signed the bill into law.
In interviews with Fox News Digital published Friday, four of the nine Democrats who
