February 17, 2026 — Today's Conservative Cartoon

Strokes, tumors, and other injuries can trigger a deep culinary obsession.

Tune in to the liberal media on any given day, and you are almost sure to bear witness to what passes for today's 'journalism'. Panels stacked with liberals, conservative panelists given short shrift, Republican guests are challenged, while Democrats are given a platform to spew their talking points uninterrupted. No show fits that script more than CNN's NewsNight With Abby Phillip, who on Monday, was filling in on The Arena in the afternoon, where she shockingly appeared to change things up just a bit. Phillip, who recently sat by silently on her show, and allowed Bakari Sellers to refer to V.P. JD Vance as an "A-hole", was joined by Congressman Dan Goldman (D-NY), to discuss the government shutdown and the related funding of ICE, and she actually sounded like a journalist at times. PHILLIP: Three days in and there appears to be no end in sight in this battle over potential reforms to ICE. A source tells CNN that today, the Democrats have not yet sent back a counterproposal to the White House's latest offer, when it comes to ending this partial government shutdown... And then she asked Goldman about the 'missing' proposal. PHILLIP: I wonder.. when do you think that counterproposal is actually going to be sent over to the White House? And based on what the White House sent over to Democrats, are you seeing any evidence of a willingness to move in your direction on the demands that you're making about ICE? Predictably, Goldman chose to ignore the first question. GOLDMAN: ..No and in fact, there's no basis for their resistance. I mean think about these very basic things that we are asking for. One, unmask ICE agents. No other law enforcement agents are masked...Criminal law enforcement agents are masked. It gives them a feeling of invincibility, clearly, a lack of accountability...Their bogus excuse for why they need to be masked would apply to any law enforcement agency, and that's just not the way democracy works. Second, you need a judicial warrant to search a home under the Fourth Amendment. An administrative warrant is not sufficient to do that. And so this is already the law. So we are effectively asking them to reassert the law that exists right now. That should not be difficult... Phillip allowed Goldman to skip the question of a Democrat counter-proposal,  and she also failed to counter any of his claims about ICE. For example, last week a federal court overturned a California law banning masks for ICE Agents. I guess Phillip was unaware. On the issue of warrants, Congress.gov features, Immigration Arrests In The Interior Of The United States, Section 1226 (a) states, "..upon issuance of an administrative warrant (otherwise known as an ICE warrant), an immigration officer may arrest and detain an alien pending a decision as to whether the alien is subject to removal." Unaware again. But Phillip did later press Goldman: "I also imagine you understand that that's also a risk Democrats are taking, right? I mean, it sounds like you're confident that the American people will not hold you all responsible for a shutdown. How can you be so sure?" The Congressman tap-danced around that one with more talking points, which included, an accusation against Kristi Noem. GOLDMAN: The clear desire and the clear intention to use immigration enforcement to help steal this upcoming election, as Kristi Noem has said that she effectively intends to do, this is a massive massive five-alarm fire that needs to be addressed. And once again, Phillip surprised. PHILLIP: ..So on the Kristi Noem of it all...you just said that she's trying to use ICE immigration officers to steal the upcoming election...What does that look like? Specifically what do you think that they are trying to do? His response was more talking points, not one example of how ICE officers will be used to steal the election. GOLDMAN: They did somehow were able to swear out a search warrant... to search the Fulton County Board of Elections for 2020 results. Then they demanded that Minnesota turn over voter rolls in order for the ICE officers to withdraw. Now, Kristi Noem is saying that she's going to take it into her own control to make sure the right people vote. And what this all is sort of geared around is this completely bogus SAVE Act... They're trying to suppress the vote, they're trying to take over voting machines and voter roles and they're trying to rig this election. Unfortunately, Phillip had no response to these wild accusations, she thanked him for his time. But overall, during the interview, Phillip did play the role of journalist, much more than she usually does on her own show.

Not that long ago, people who struggled to accept their biological gender were diagnosed with a mental health disorder called gender dysphoria. But radical tolerance pushed by the left has ushered us into an age where transgenderism is so embraced, and even popularized, that advocacy for it continues even as transgender-perpetrated violence increases.On February 10, 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar, a biological male who identified as a woman, allegedly carried out a mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, killing eight people — including his mother, stepbrother, five students, and a teacher — before dying by suicide. The mass shooting is one of the deadliest in Canadian history.The mainstream media, however, has consistently portrayed Van Rootselaar as a woman with mental health issues, seemingly aligning with the transgender movement’s emphasis on gender-affirming language and self-identification.But BlazeTV host Rick Burgess argues that mental illness isn’t the full picture.“A[n alleged] mass killer that then takes their own life — that is a calling card of demonic activity,” he says.On this episode of “Strange Encounters,” Rick delves into the spiritual dimensions of the atrocity, arguing that what society calls “mental illness” in such cases may actually stem from demonic oppression fueled by cultural confusion over God’s design for gender. “On this podcast, we do not believe that all mental health is demonic. There’s no doubt that the human brain is a piece of our fallen bodies, like everything else, and it can be sick,” Rick says.“However, there’s also a clear indication that many times we label demonic activity as mental illness when it’s not,” he adds.Much of the violence we’re seeing from trans-identifying individuals, he says, falls into that category: demonic oppression repackaged as mental illness.The LGBTQ+ movement that insists gender is a broad spectrum instead of the male/female dichotomy created by God is creating an environment that is both “chaotic and confusing.”“And what lives in those two worlds?” Rick asks. “Demonic activity. No question.”“We’re just pretending something, and it’s costing people their lives — and I’m including the people who are struggling with this,” he adds. “They become dangerous to other people and dangerous to themselves.”To hear more of Rick’s spiritual analysis, watch the episode above.Want more from Rick Burgess?To enjoy more bold talk and big laughs, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
