When Americans interview foreign tyrants, you have to question how they paint themselves as champions of democracy. They’re often so pleased to be granted access that this leads to compliant questioning. That happened on Meet the Press with Cuban “President” Miguel Diaz-Canel. "It's an honor," Kristen Welker oozed. She didn't say that at the end of the last Trump interview. Diaz-Canel is not a “president,” which implies he is somehow elected. He’s not. He was selected by the Communist Party to play the Head of State. NewsBusters associate editor Nick Fondacaro and news analyst and radio host Jorge Bonilla joined the show to consider all the bias over the weekend.  The toughest question was “Would you be willing to step down if it meant saving Cuba?” Diaz-Canel was offended by the question, suggesting she wouldn’t ask Trump that, and suggesting she was the puppet in this conversation: “Is that a question from you, or is that coming from the State Department of the U.S. government?” Welker's interviews with Trump are more combative than the communists get. She insisted to her Cuban guest that "I ask very hard questions of President Trump." The Sunday shows suddenly turned on Rep. Eric Swalwell over new allegations of sexual assault and misconduct reported by CNN and the San Francisco Chronicle. There was investigative reporting -- but there was also curious timing, since Democrats are lagging in California's "jungle primary" for governor, and it's possible the top two vote-getters for the general election could both be Republicans. Getting Swalwell out gives the Democrats more of a fighting chance. Democrats at first seemed to want him out of the governor's race, but not Congress. That all changed on Monday, and Swalwell is leaving his House seat.  In his latest study of guests on ABC's The View, Nick found it was overwhelmingly liberal again -- 27 to 1 over the first three months of 2026. The one somewhat Republican guest was former reality-TV star Spencer Pratt, who's running for Mayor of Los Angeles on the single local issue of Mayor Karen Bass's poor recovery efforts after the devastating Palisades wildfire. We also discussed MS NOW host Lawrence O'Donnell's recent bender on how the president's youngest son Barron Trump should really be serving in the armed forces during the war in Iran. O'Donnell never served, and neither did his one child, a daughter. He even claimed without evidence that young Barron failed to register for the draft.  Enjoy the video below.   

The elitist media’s treatment of the Catholic Church is entirely ideological. When Catholic leaders take moral positions Democrats favor, they are heroes. When they sound moral alarms that Republicans favor, they are either disparaged or ignored (more often ignored). On Sunday’s 60 Minutes, the apparently mandatory anti-Trump segment was an interview with three Cardinals everyone associated with “progressive” Pope Francis – Blasé Cupich of Chicago, Robert McElroy of Washington DC, and Joseph Tobin of Newark. The two big anti-Trump topics were the war in Iran and mass deportation. There were no questions on abortion or gender ideology or nuns suing the Democrat governor of New York. Norah O’Donnell, who was granted an interview with Pope Francis in 2024 – where she also hammered on immigration and called on the pontiff to denounce “climate deniers” (he called them “foolish”) – was back to provide another platform for the leftist-pleasing prelates. O'Donnell noted that Pope Leo "appeared" to be criticizing Pete Hegseth in a Palm Sunday homily. CBS quoted Hegseth, and typically failed to note Hegseth was quoting from the Psalms. She asked "Is this a just war?" Cardinal McElroy hit the right note for CBS: "No. Under Catholic teaching, this is not a just war."  But O'Donnell deserves some credit for noting "Iran has been the chief exporter of terror. Is there no scenario in which preventing that can be a just war?" The answer was contradictory: McElroy said "It's an abominable regime, and it should be removed," but it's still an unjust war somehow.  On "60 Minutes," Norah O'Donnell provided a platform for the "progressive" Cardinals to bash Trump. But McElroy contradicted himself about Iran, the world's leader exporting terror. Well, it's not a "just war," but Iran's an "abominable regime" that "must be removed." HUH? pic.twitter.com/b31ZwYAN7e — Tim Graham (@TimJGraham) April 13, 2026 Cardinal Cupich was cued to denounce social-media videos glamorizing war -- that's an easy one. Then they shifted to deportations. O'Donnell noted Cardinal Tobin called ICE a "lawless organization," sounding exactly like Democrats. She asked: "Why did you do that?" He claimed "I didn’t say that they were people without law. But when people act in this way, when they have to hide their identities to terrify people, when they can actually violate other guarantees of our Constitution and Bill of Rights, well, I think somebody's got to call that out and I'm not the only one." O'Donnell did not ask whether an illegal immigrant is "lawless," or whether sneaking into our country is sinful in any way. They just moved on, to Cardinal McElroy complaining that "fear" of deportation is causing smaller attendance at Spanish-language masses. O'Donnell noted McElroy thought the border was "getting out of control" under Biden, but now the government is rounding up "people who have been living good, strong lives." Again O'Donnell pushed back a bit:  On CBS, Norah O'Donnell noted Cardinal Tobin called ICE a "lawless organization." (D-NJ) Tobin added: "I didn’t say that they were people without law," but that ICE agents "hide their identities to terrify people," and violate "guarantees of our Constitution and Bill of Rights." pic.twitter.com/VuhPWfWzDD — Tim Graham (@TimJGraham) April 13, 2026 O’DONNELL: But this was discussed during the campaign. It was widely discussed. And yet President Trump won the Catholic vote over Kamala Harris handily, 55 to 43 percent. He promised to secure the border. He talked about deportation. And a majority of Catholics voted for the policy. CUPICH: I would like to know what Catholics feel about this indiscriminate mass deportation. I think that it’s very clear the American people are saying, "We really didn't vote for this." This is where church leaders sound more like Sunday-morning pundits than moral witnesses. Maybe Catholics voted for Trump because of those other undiscussed issues -- abortion, LGBTQ, religious freedom.  Finally, O'Donnell could not suppress several grins over the optics of the American-born pope spending July 4 on the Italian island of Lampedusa to sympathize with all the migrants arriving there to spread out over Europe. How deliciously anti-Trump!  O'DONNELL: Pope Leo will spend July 4th in Lampedusa, Italy, a site where tens of thousands of migrants land on their way to Europe every year. It's America's 250th birthday. Do you think the Holy Father is sending a message, Cardinal, with that visit? CUPICH: He's sending a message that his top priority right now is to be with those who are downcast and marginalized. Then came the sappy Statue of Liberty reference: On '60 Minutes,' Norah O'Donnell couldn't suppress the grins over the Pope spending the Fourth of July on an Italian island where immigrants land. Cardinal Tobin gushed: "I know at least one member of my archdiocese that will be happy and she's green." (The Statue of Liberty.) pic.twitter.com/GLLZtOrEUR — Tim Graham (@TimJGraham) April 13, 2026 O'DONNELL: Coincidence that he's going there on July 4th? TOBIN: I know at least one member of my archdiocese that will be happy and she`s green, and she's on a little island just -- that belongs to New Jersey and is technically part of the Archdiocese of Newark. And she's holding up a torch, and she's reading from a scroll, and it says, "Welcome." So, once again, the notion that Bari Weiss is "ruining" things by turning CBS toward the center isn't coming true.

UPDATE: On Monday, Eric Swalwell announced that he plans to resign from Congress. California Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell’s latest scandal has social media being flooded with flashback videos of the congressman’s past comments on the type of crimes he’s now being accused of committing. The congressman’s first brush with serious public scandal was in 2020 when Axios broke the news of his past close relationship with a Chinese intelligence operative, prompting suspicions he had slept with a spy. On Friday, The San Francisco Chronicle reported allegations by one of Swalwell’s former staffers that he had twice sexually assaulted her while she worked for him. The House Ethics Committee has launched an investigation into the allegations and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is investigating whether Swalwell sexually assaulted a former staffer at a hotel in New York City two years ago and called on other possible victims to contact his office. Then, on Sunday, Fox News reported that Swalwell is under investigation regarding a complaint filed with federal authorities accusing the Democrat of knowingly employing an illegal alien as a nanny, lying about her immigration status and paying her under the table using campaign funds. With news of the scandals spreading, video clips of Swalwell’s ironic, and seemingly hypocritical, past comments on crime and sexual assault allegations are going viral on social media. In January, for example, Swalwell claimed U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) were terrorizing women and should have their right to drive revoked. January, 2026. Swalwell vows that if elected Governor, he will take away the drivers licenses of ICE agents because they have "terrorized women." According to Eric Swalwell, Eric Swalwell shouldn't be allowed to drive. pic.twitter.com/kcvtehnSNT — MAZE (@mazemoore) April 13, 2026 In 2025, Swalwell said prosecutors should “focus on” and “throw the book at” those who commit sexual crimes. 2025.

Sounds good Eric. pic.twitter.com/rBwm45nBad — MAZE (@mazemoore) April 12, 2026   In November, Rep. Swalwell warned the Justice Department and President Trump that, when Democrats control Congress, they’ll use subpoena power to ensure “the truth’s going to come out” about them – but, just last month, Swalwell’s lawyers threatened the FBI with legal action if it lets the truth to come out about his past relationship with the suspected Chinese spy.

I hope everything you've done so far is clean because if it's not, there's going to be a reckoning for that." pic.twitter.com/ueFs3q4PKm — MAZE (@mazemoore) April 13, 2026   On Friday, California Post Senior Political Reporter Josh Koehn posted video in which he asked Swalwell if he had ever had sexual relationships with any staff or interns – to which the congressman answered “No, no, no, no.” “A bombshell report by the San Francisco Chronicle is now contradicting his claims,” Koehn notes in his post.   Earlier this week, I directly asked Rep. Eric Swalwell — a Democratic frontrunner in the California governor's race — if he had ever had sexual relationships with any staff or interns as allegations have been rumored for months He said, "No, no, no, no." A bombshell report by… pic.twitter.com/X5DHuFFqLd — Josh Koehn (@Josh_Koehn) April 10, 2026   As calls for his resignation from Congress continue to grow, Swalwell has announced that he has suspended his campaign to become governor of California.

On Monday, ABC’s Good Morning America featured a full story on Democratic Congressman and cable news denizen Eric Swalwell (CA) dropping out of the California gubernatorial race amid allegations of sexual assault, misconduct, and rape, continuing a news cycle that, like a coordinated research dump, began Friday with stories on CNN and in the San Francisco Chronicle. However, see if you can spot what was missing from the report by co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos and senior political correspondent Rachel Scott: Notice what's missing in this early Monday Eric Swalwell story on ABC's 'Good Morning America' (They never once said he was a Democrat. Just a (D) in one chyron.) pic.twitter.com/8YzuWonLKq — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) April 13, 2026 Yes, dear readers, ABC went the entire story without directly labeling Swalwell a Democrat. The most they could do was add a (D) to the lower third in the soundbite of Swalwell denouncing the allegations. There were also no questions either about what Democrats knew and when did they know it about the creep. Starting Saturday, every lead morning and evening show on ABC, CBS, and NBC have covered Swalwell’s demise and, until this omission, all ten newscasts that mentioned Swalwell identified his party. The same went for Monday’s CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today. The two-minute-and-34-second piece began with Stephanopoulos:  We have more breaking news overnight. California Representative Eric Swalwell suspended his campaign for governor following sexual assault allegations. Senior political correspondent Rachel Scott us on Capitol Hill where this could have a ripple effect. Good morning, Rachel. A virulent Trump hater, Scott tip-toed her way through the piece, saying “just a few days ago, Eric Swalwell was seen as the leading candidate, a frontrunner in California’s race for governor, but now he has suspended his campaign amid these bombshell allegations.” “Overnight Congressman Eric Swawell suspended his campaign for California governor amid disturbing allegations of sexual assault and misconduct...Swalwell’s bid for governor was in peril after at least four women accused him of sexual assault and inappropriate behavior to the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN,” she continued, adding her network had “not been able to independently verify those claims.” Instead, they played sound from one accuser speaking to CNN and then relaying they did speak with one woman who’s gone on-the-record to allege Swalwell sent her an unsolicited nude photo after she sought his help for a Capitol Hill job in 2021. Following the token soundbite from Swalwell, Scott pointed out the open letter from “[m]ore than 50 former staffers also calling on Swalwell to resign” and that, no matter what happens, “Swalwell’s name will still appear on the ballot.” This was the closest Scott came to suggesting Swalwell’s political party: And George mentioned the ripple effects. Well, one of the things happening here on Capitol Hill as the House returns into session, you have Republicans who are trying to force a vote to expel him from Congress. Even some Democrats say they are willing to support that. It’s unclear if it will pass[.] The Swalwell story was one of the show’s opening teases and, courtesy of fill-in co-host Rebecca Jarvis, also omitted the party ID: “Breaking overnight, one of the leading candidates for governor of California suspending his campaign. Congressman Eric Swalwell, responding to allegations of sexual assault and misconduct.” Ironically, Scott herself filled in as a co-host on Sunday’s Good Morning America and said Swalwell was a Democrat in the copy they fed into the teleprompter for her to read: “All right, we turn now to the growing calls for Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell to end his bid for California governor. And this morning, a source telling ABC News Swalwell is facing a criminal investigation.” To see the relevant ABC transcript from April 13, click “expand.” ABC’s Good Morning America April 13, 2026 7:01 a.m. Eastern [TEASE] [ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: Breaking Overnight; Swalwell Suspends Campaign] REBECCA JARVIS: Breaking overnight, one of the leading candidates for governor of California suspending his campaign.

Swalwell Suspends California Governor Campaign] GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: We have more breaking news overnight. California Representative Eric Swalwell suspended his campaign for governor following sexual assault allegations. Senior political correspondent Rachel Scott us on Capitol Hill where this could have a ripple effect. Good morning, Rachel. RACHEL SCOTT: It certainly could, George. Good morning to you. Well, just a few days ago, Eric Swalwell was seen as the leading candidate, a frontrunner in California’s race for governor. But now he has suspended his campaign amid these bombshell allegations. Overnight Congressman Eric Swawell suspended his campaign for California governor amid disturbing allegations of sexual assault and misconduct. Swalwell writing on social media, “I am deeply sorry for mistakes and judgment I’ve made in my past. I will fight this serious and false allegations that I’ve been made, but that’s my fight, not a campaign.” Swalwell’s bid for governor was in peril after at least four women accused him of sexual assault and inappropriate behavior to the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN. ABC News has not been able to independently verify those claims. One former staffer telling CNN Swalwell sexually assaulted her twice, once back in 2019 when she worked for his California district office, the second time in New York City in 2024. FORMER SWALWELL STAFFER [on CNN]: I can recall I was pushing him off of me saying no. SCOTT: A source telling ABC that the Manhattan district attorney is now investigating that allegation. The other woman accusing Swalwell of sending inappropriate messages, including explicit photos. Alison Marco telling ABC News she first met Swalwell in 2021 when she was looking for a job on Capitol Hill and that after they message her several weeks, he sent her an unsolicited nude photo. She told ABC and made her feel gross. Swalwell is denying all the allegations. He and his attorney did not immediately respond to ABC News’s request for comment. CONGRESSMAN ERIC SWALWELL (D-CA): These allegations of sexual assault are flat false. They’re absolutely false. They did not happen. They have never happened. And I will fight them with everything that I have. SCOTT: More than 50 former staffers also calling on Swalwell to resign saying in a statement, “we are appalled by his actions,” adding “justice is not an option. Accountability is not negotiable.” So, despite dropping out of the way, Swalwell’s name will still appear on the ballot. And George mentioned the ripple effects. Well, one of the things happening here on Capitol Hill as the House returns into session, you have Republicans who are trying to force a vote to expel him from Congress. Even some Democrats say they are willing to support that. It’s unclear if it will pass, Michael. MICHAEL STRAHAN: Yeah, we’ll see what — if that does happen. Rachel, thank you.

Almost no one in the liberal media was stupid enough to put their neck out for Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA) following the flood of sexual misconduct allegations timed to sink his dream of being governor. But no one in their right mind had ever accused ABC moderator Whoopi Goldberg of being smart. On Monday’s episode of The View, Goldberg was a good little Democratic Party sycophant as she was the only cast member to go to bat for the embattled gubernatorial candidate. According to her, Congress couldn't vote to expel Swalwell until they dealt with President Trump first. Leading into their conversation, Goldberg played a soundbite of Swalwell defending himself and soundbite of Republican Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (FL) announcing she initiated the process of expelling Swalwell and three other members with misconduct allegations. Immediately following the clip of Luna, the camera returned to Goldberg. The room was silent as Goldberg scoffed and wondered aloud about what the Congresswoman was doing to get rid of Trump: LUNA: On Friday, I had my staff initiate the process and file -- or set the process to file motions for expulsions for multiple members of Congress both Democrat and Republican. And I think even though Democrats and Republicans might have ideological differences, I think we should be able to all agree on the basics that maybe if you are, I don't know, sexually harassing or assaulting or have issues of domestic violence or you're stealing funds from FEMA, maybe you should not be in Congress. [Cuts back to live] [Silence] WHOOPI GOLDBERG What about president?   Whoopi Goldberg scoffs at efforts to expel Swalwell from Congress, argues that he's denying the allegations and that other members of Congress have allegations against them. She also suggests getting Trump out of office is more important: REP. LUNA (R-FL, X video): On Friday, I… pic.twitter.com/SjPp8enPCw — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) April 13, 2026   With the audience now roaring in applause at the Trump jab, Goldberg continued to decry efforts to oust Swalwell, citing his denials and engaging in pure whataboutism by deflecting to the other members of Congress: I'm just asking. Because he's denying all the allegations and he's not the only member of Congress facing accusations of sexual miscongress [sic] - misconduct right now. So, I mean, with all that we've seen, what should be happening here? What should happen here? Despite every other co-host supporting Swalwell’s ouster, Goldberg was a loyal sycophant to the party. She closed out the segment by arguing that Swalwell shouldn’t be removed from office before Trump: GOLDBERG: Well, you know, you start at the head and until you clear out the issues they're going to stay. (…) GOLDBERG: But I just feel like, you know, as long as the head has all these issues, 55 people can come out and say they should drain the swamp, but if you are not draining from the top, I don't know if people are going to take it seriously. I don't know that they will take it seriously.   Whoopi closes the segment by declaring that members of Congress can't be expelled for misconduct until Trump is: GOLDBERG: Well, you know, you start at the head and until you clear out the issues they're going to stay. because people believe - HOSTIN: I thought Trump said he… pic.twitter.com/7KkGOiHK2F — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) April 13, 2026   As for the rest of the cast, Sara Haines endorsed Luna’s efforts: “I think what she said on that video should align with everyone. It's not a party problem, it's a certain amount of character integrity. If you are going to be a public servant in an elective government, there should be a baseline level of goodness, of character. You're handling money and power.” Ana Navarro wanted Swalwell gone along with Republican Congressman Tony Gonzalez (TX), who Luna was also trying to remove. She was upset that both were still receiving paychecks from the taxpayers (Click “expand”): Listen, I think Eric Swalwell and the others who have been accused of also terrible things have every right to fight these allegations and go prove that they're wrong. What they don't have a right to do is do it while they're getting paid with our taxpayer money and do it while they are representing people. (…) But I also want the same level of energy against Tony Gonzalez who's the guy from Texas, the congressman from Texas who admitted to having an affair with a staffer. She died by suicide, set herself on fire, and he's still in Congress! Cashing a paycheck! So, you know, it's unacceptable that people of this level of moral character or lack thereof are still in Congress.   Haines agrees with Republican Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna's effort to expel multiple members of Congress for their various allegations of misconduct: GOLDBERG: So, I mean, with all that we've seen, what should be happening here?

She even noted some of the others Luna was targeting including Representatives Cory Mills (R-FL) and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) (Click “expand”): HOSTIN: So, I think if Swalwell goes, you drain the swamp, everybody goes. It's not -- I agree with you, Sara, it's not a Democratic problem, it's not a Republican problem, it's just a character problem. HAINES: Yeah.

She also chided the apparent fact that his misconduct “was openly known, [and] nobody did anything about it.” Obviously, Goldberg was the odd one out on this issue. The transcript is below.
