When you’re a parent of young children, it’s hard enough to enjoy your downtime by putting on a movie or a television show that you’re catching up on because, these days, even network television is rife with inappropriate language and topics that you’d prefer not to have to your child exposed to.

The workings of the progressive mind never cease to amaze us.

The mainstream media has a funny way of treating half the country. News outlets either ignore topics dear to Red State America’s heart (the Twitter Files), twist their political views beyond recognition (Nazis!

Well, isn’t this rich. Republican Congressman-elect George Santos has been caught flatfooted, lying about all manner of things — his education, job history, religion, his mother’s death and more. The lib media has, but of course, gone crazy with this. Doubtless, beyond the lying itself, this focus on Santos is partially driven by the battle
