The Washington Post is a Democrat rag. On Thursday’s front page, the below-the-fold headline on the left was “Democrats continue to reel in victories in special elections.” The subscribers surely loved it.  In the same spot on Friday was “Young conservatives’ bigotry has GOP on edge: Radicalization of youth on the right has set off bitter debate in the party.” Democrats love a “bitter debate” on the other side. The online headline was similar, but the subheadline was more specific: “Many Republicans dismiss such party members even as white supremacists like Nick Fuentes gain popularity, but there’s growing unease at their presence in the rank and file.” Let’s not deny the Republicans have a problem with antisemites in their ranks. Reporter Hannah Knowles quotes Sen. Ted Cruz: that he has seen more prejudice against Jewish people “in the last 18 months on the right than at any point in my lifetime,” and that “it is gaining real purchase, especially with young people.” But surely Knowles and the Post is not unaware that "groyper" Nick Fuentes has been out there raging against Trump. On March 16: “He needs to go. Like, I really believe that he needs to be impeached under the Democrats. And I don't even want him to be removed from office because I don't want Vance to become president either. I want Vance to burn down with all of it.” On December 28, 2025, Fuentes posted on social media that he’d vote for Gavin Newsom over “fat subhuman” Vance for president in 2028 “100x over just because he’s handsome.” Why is this nowhere in the story? Because the Post is a Democrat rag. There was a brief spot in the Knowles story for an official White House rebuttal of their partisan thesis: Davis Ingle, a spokesman for the White House, said Trump “has zero tolerance for anti-Semitism” and accused Democrats in Congress of “being taken over by anti-Semitic and anti-American radicals.” He pointed to Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan), who have drawn rebukes from Republicans as well as some Democrats. The lawmakers’ offices did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The Post has covered Omar sympathetically as the victim of barbs from "creepy" Trump. She's not ruining the Democrats. Knowles based her story on a Turning Point USA conference, and had to admit: An official straw poll of attendees at the conference found that 87 percent of respondents viewed Israel as an ally, drawing a stark contrast with Fuentes, who rails against Israel. But the tension over their rise was front-and-center, in the sniping between speakers and the questions coming from the audience. This isn’t the first time the Post has been excited about the potential of Fuentes wrecking the GOP. Here’s the headline from last November 8: “Far-right provocateur Nick Fuentes is triggering a MAGA civil war.” At least that came before Fuentes endorsed handsome Gavin Newsom and Democrats impeaching Trump and removing him from office.
