In a statement by ABC News’s public relations department and shared with CNN’s Brian Stelter, the Disney-owned liberal network revealed Tuesday they fired longtime correspondent Terry Moran, less than a week after having been suspended for a late-night tweet smearing longtime Donald Trump aide Stephen Miller as “a world-class hater” whose “hatreds are his spiritual nourishment.” Stelter broke the news right at 5:00 p.m. Eastern: Stelter added in a follow-up tweet that ABC also told him “we hold all of our reporters to the highest standards of objectivity, fairness and professionalism, and we remain committed to delivering straightforward, trusted journalism.” Cue the laugh tracks for the absurdity of that statement. While Moran’s axing is something few could have expected if this had occurred, say, eight years ago, it does nothing to change their reputation of weapons-grade liberal bias. In the time since Moran’s suspension Sunday morning, ABC’s liberal bias hasn’t relented one bit, most notably blaming President Trump for the Los Angeles riots. Maybe now that Moran is gone he can have time to look back fondly on his 27-year career at ABC News, which included nearly every possible title: ABC News Live anchor, chief foreign correspondent, Nightline co-anchor, senior national correspondent, World News Tonight Sunday anchor, White House correspondent. And, at one point or another since 1998, Moran has helped lead ABC’s coverage of the Supreme Court, often their voice weighing in with joy (such as after the Obergefell decision or ObamaCare case) or rage at rulings. That also extended into actively working to sink a few of their nominations. Whether it was calling Donald Trump a “führer” or declaring “women will die” after the Court overturned Roe v. Wade or fawning over Barack Obama as someone who’d have to “step down into the Oval Office,” or declaring the 2024 Democratic National Convention “the best party I’ve been to in awhile,” Moran’s decades of bias have long been evident. Originally published ahead of his trainwreck April 29 interview with President Trump, our Geoffrey Dickens compiled a few examples of Moran’s worst moments here. And, for posterity, click here to read Moran’s bio at ABC News (which will soon be deleted if it hasn’t already). Our Brent Baker went back and found what will go down as Moran’s final on-air moment with the network. Ever a committed liberal journalist, Moran’s last segment was an interview on ABC News Live with far-left New York Times columnist Charles Blow about Pride Month: Someone should check on Mediaite’s Colby Hall, who kvetched about Moran’s tweet “having landed squarely in the middle of the culture war mosh pit, where such commentary is chum for partisan sharks desperate for engagement.” Hall further complained ABC’s move to suspend him was a sign they’re “still clinging to the tattered flag of objectivity, trying to draw lines in an industry where the chalk keeps getting washed away” and “violating journalistic standards of objectivity” while those most outraged “have zero standards” and are “not journalists.” Thus, in his world and those of media elites, only those whom are defined as card-carrying journalists or members of this or that club determine what is and is not a faux pas.

School police in Los Angeles announced new measures to prevent federal agents from enforcing immigration law near public schools in California, according to a report in the Los Angeles Times.Critics of the Trump administration have pointed to some incidents where agents of Immigration and Customs Enforcement sought to gain entry to schools in order to detain illegal aliens in deportation proceedings.'Our families are now forced to live in fear, looking over their shoulders on the way to school or their child’s graduation. This is just simply wrong.'Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho said the school police would be deployed to ensure that the families of students were safe from federal enforcement at graduation ceremonies.“We stand strongly on the right side of law,” said the superintendent. “Every student in our community, every student across the country, has a constitutional right to a free public education of high quality, without threat. Every one of our students, independently of their immigration status, has a right to a free meal in our schools. Every one of our children, no questions asked, has a right to counseling, social-emotional support, mental support.”Los Angeles has seen violent rioting over the weekend from protesters opposed to increased deportation operations ordered by President Donald Trump. Dozens have been arrested by police, and National Guard troops have been deployed to the area as well as some U.S. Marines. Carvalho said school officials were prepared to oppose federal troops if they attempted to gain entry to schools with a judicial warrant. “I think that would be a preposterous condition,” he said. “But then again, we have seen preposterous actions taken recently by this administration. We are prepared for everything." The report noted that if federal officials obtained a judicial warrant, school officials have no legal recourse to oppose their entry into schools. Carvalho cited one example where a family was scared to see their daughter graduate because of the possibility of immigration officials catching them.“I’ve spoken with parents who’ve told me that their daughter would be the first in their family to graduate high school, and they’re not going to be there to witness it because they have a fear of the place of graduation being targeted. What nation are we becoming?”RELATED: LA schools deny DHS welfare checks on migrant kids Biden lost, left exposed to trafficking Brian van der Brug / Los Angeles Times via Getty Images School board members spoke against the deportations in statements to the Times.“Our families are now forced to live in fear, looking over their shoulders on the way to school or their child’s graduation," said board member Rocio Rivas. "This is just simply wrong. It is also very, very cruel."Board member Tanya Ortiz Franklin made similar comments.“This isn’t about keeping our community safe," she said. "This is about a backwards belief about who belongs and who should be pushed out, locked up, and shut up.”Like Blaze News?

Massachusetts' sanctuary policies, combined with the former Biden administration's immigration crisis, have resulted in a disastrous situation for the state's overwhelmed shelter system, which has become a hotbed of criminal activity and has led to the mismanagement of taxpayer funds.Jon Fetherston, a former director for one of those emergency shelters, a Marlborough Holiday Inn that housed hundreds of individuals, gained firsthand experience with some of the shelter program's most egregious and disturbing issues.'The system is bloated with bureaucracy and lacks meaningful financial accountability.'Fetherston, who worked as the shelter's director in 2023 and 2024, announced that his experiences prompted him to demand the federal government investigate Democratic Governor Maura Healey's migrant shelters. Fetherston called Healey's program "dangerous and corrupt," urging Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday to "immediately launch a full investigation" into "a disturbing pattern of criminal activity, sexual assaults, financial abuse, and the widespread use of no-bid contracts."He described the program as a "disaster for public safety, government transparency, and fiscal accountability" that has failed Massachusetts residents and the migrants it is supposed to help.Safety concernsAmong the most concerning failures Fetherston observed were rampant criminal activities within the shelters, which posed direct threats to vulnerable residents and the nearby community.Fetherston pointed to disturbing cases of sexual assault, including an instance where a father residing at the state-run shelter was accused of repeatedly raping his minor daughter, resulting in her pregnancy. Fetherston wrote to Bondi that the incident was not isolated and that he was "aware of other women and girls who were assaulted in shelters that had no adequate safeguards, supervision, or response protocols."Fetherston told Blaze News, "To this day, no one has been held accountable."RELATED: Blaze News original: Inside Massachusetts migrant shelters where crime flourishes under Democrats' watch Photo by Anibal Martel/Anadolu via Getty ImagesHe noted that the state's refusal to cooperate and share information with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, while "often obscured by political rhetoric," has resulted in "a real and urgent threat to community safety."Despite Healey's claims that individuals undergo background checks before entering the state-run shelters, criminals and migrants with active deportation orders were "knowingly placed in family shelters alongside children and vulnerable residents," Fetherston said."The governor claimed that all migrants were run through the Massachusetts [Criminal Offender Record Information] system," he continued. "That was a blatant falsehood. She later said she directed her staff to do so but produced no documentation to prove it, and no one on her staff was held accountable. Moreover, running migrants through the CORI system only reveals crimes committed in Massachusetts, rendering it nearly useless for individuals arriving from other countries. This was simply more gaslighting from the governor."Financial abusesIn addition to endangering the community, the shelter system wastes taxpayer funds through rampant financial abuses, requiring urgent scrutiny, Fetherston revealed.Fetherston outlined widespread fraud within the state's shelter system, which he called "staggering and frankly insulting to taxpayers."He stated that he witnessed vendors bill for services never rendered and government contracts awarded without proper oversight. Fetherston also pointed out that shelter staff would clock in for work and then leave. They used the hotel's rooms for personal purposes, booked personal rideshare services through the shelter's account, brought their laundry for the shelter's vendors to handle, and even advised migrants on how to manipulate the immigration system."The system is bloated with bureaucracy and lacks meaningful financial accountability," he stated.Fetherston's claims of financial mismanagement were backed by a state audit, which revealed issues in the shelter program's contracting and oversight processes.‘Until these reforms occur, public funds are wasted, and the families who rely on the system suffer the most.’Massachusetts State Auditor Diana DiZoglio's Office released a report in May, which revealed that the state's Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities "failed to adequately assess and act upon the increased demand for shelter services, resulting in improper and unlawful no-bid emergency procurements for food and transportation services."The audit noted a "lack of fairness," "transparency," and "accountability" in the state's contracting process that resulted in "unnecessarily high costs and inefficiencies."The audit also revealed that the state "mismanaged" its contracts with shelters and hotels, pointing to "a lack of administrative oversight at EOHLC" and "creating an avoidable risk."RELATED: Illegal alien allegedly repeatedly rapes minor daughter, sent to another Mass. shelter instead of jail: Ex-facility director Photo by Craig F. Walker/The Boston Globe via Getty ImagesFetherston's attempts to address these failures revealed deeper issues, including ignored warnings and personal consequences for speaking out.Fetherston told Blaze News that his efforts to expose the shelter system abuses came at a personal cost, including "direct retaliation." He noted that state officials consistently ignored his concerns.When Fetherston attempted to save taxpayer-funded resources, he faced intimidation from one resident who allegedly crashed a vehicle into his office after he announced that residents with EBT and WIC benefits would no longer receive taxpayer-funded diapers, wipes, and formula through the shelter."Taxpayers have every right to demand transparency and results," Fetherston told Blaze News. "That begins with full independent audits, strong whistleblower protections, thorough investigations, and a comprehensive overhaul of procurement and oversight processes. Until these reforms occur, public funds are wasted, and the families who rely on the system suffer the most."Fetherston asked the DOJ to open an investigation into "criminal activity and sexual violence within Massachusetts-run migrant shelters," "widespread fraud and misuse of federal and state funds," "the deliberate refusal to coordinate with federal law enforcement agencies," and "the pattern of retaliation against those reporting abuse, danger, or misconduct."The DOJ could not confirm receipt of Fetherston's letter.Healey's office did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

Coco Gauff has become the first American woman to win the French Open since Serena Williams, but her press interview that followed left those patriotic Americans who supported her — but maybe don’t see the world the same way she does — feeling a little less than inspired.“Obviously, there’s a lot going on in our country right now,” Gauff said, before explaining that she feels like “a representation” of “people that look like” her in America. She went on to say that those who look like her “maybe don’t feel as supported during this time period” and that her win can be a “reflection of hope and light for those people.”“After the election, everything, it kind of felt down period a little bit and things like that, and my mom told me during Riyadh, ‘Just try to win the tournament just to give something for people to smile for,’ and so that’s what I was thinking about today when holding that and then seeing the flags in the crowd,” she continued.“Some people may feel some type of way about being patriotic and things like that, but I’m definitely patriotic, I’m proud to be American, and I’m proud to represent the Americans that look like me and people who kind of support the things that I support,” she added.BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock and BlazeTV contributor Steve Kim are among those Americans feeling a little less inspired by her win after her press interview.“Let me just say this as someone that’s always proud to be an American, not a Korean American, not an Asian American, an American American,” Kim tells Whitlock. “I believe that she’s paying the guilt tax, that if you are proud to be an American and you’re a POC, the darker you are, you are expected to have some guilt and expected to do some finger wagging.”“There’s a pressure, to number one, feel some guilt. Number two, with that expected guilt, to then point the finger at America, claim some sort of oppression, whether there is or not, and you just can’t be proud to represent this great country,” he adds.“I like your guilt tax,” Whitlock agrees. “But it’s also part of holding onto your black authenticity. And so, to really be black, you have to wag a finger at America, or you’re not really black. You have to be a victim.”Want more from Jason Whitlock?To enjoy more fearless conversations at the crossroads of culture, faith, sports, and comedy with Jason Whitlock, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
