Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist has become one of the strongest voices on the right when it comes to calling out the liberal media.
During a recent appearance on Laura Ingraham’s show on FOX News, Hemingway pointed out that we have not had a functioning media for years, accusing them of being corrupt and regime propagandists.
Later in the segment, she suggested that Trump is showing the Republican party how to be an effective leader.

MOLLIE HEMINGWAY, THE FEDERALIST: One of the worst legacies of the Biden era has been destroying rule of law in this country, using courts to go after political opponents to settle things that should be settled at the ballot box. And it’s a horrible contrast between Biden and really all other presidents that they, that he did so much in this area. You know, it’s true that this press conference today didn’t just show Trump sort of reaching through space and time to govern, even though he’s not yet president.
You know, we’re seeing in these recent weeks everyone’s treating him as the president. That’s a contrast with Biden. But it’s also a contrast with the impotent and feckless Republican Party leadership that is on its way out.
Donald Trump is showing the Republican Party what it looks like to win, what it looks like to be a leader who gets things done. And he’s had to drag a bunch of the party alongside with him. But that’s – it’s a really striking difference, not just with the Biden administration, but also with that sort of Bush-era, you know, Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell, Liz Cheney, loser style of the Republican Party.

The 2024 election showed that the liberal media no longer wields the influence they used to have. People have stopped listening to them. The massive drop in ratings at CNN and MSNBC is proof of that.
