AI chatbots face major backlash over left-wing bias: ‘Can no longer be considered neutral and cannot be trusted’
By Brian Flood , Fox News
Published May 26, 2026, 2:51 p.m. ET
Artificial intelligence chatbots are relying on left-wing media and politically charged sources, making it difficult for the average American to trust them as a news source, critics say.
AI systems are widely known to sometimes “hallucinate” and generate false yet believable information that can quickly erode trust.
Some critics insist chatbots such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Claude provide information with a liberal slant, or push information from left-leaning news sources while silencing opposing views.
As more and more Americans rely on the technology, the right-leaning Media Research Center (MRC) has conducted studies in an attempt to determine if the chatbots should be relied upon — and they don’t find the results encouraging.
“We’re watching the next phase of media bias unfold in real time,” Media Research Center President David Bozell told Fox News Digital.
“Silicon Valley’s shiny new toys can no longer be considered neutral and cannot be trusted.”
ChatGPT, which is developed by OpenAI, insisted in January that nobody named Charlie Kirk was ever assassinated and declared no credible evidence or reporting could substantiate such a claim, according to the MRC.

Less than a month after she resigned from Congress in the face of a looming expulsion recommendation, former U.S. Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick said Monday she is a candidate to return to Washington.
Cherfilus-McCormick said she is seeking the Democratic nomination in the reconfigured 20th Congressional District, which is concentrated in central Broward County, after Florida Republicans changed the map of Florida congressional districts.
She said she isn’t deterred by four other candidates who are already running — or by the prospect that U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz might decide to run in the same district. Wasserman Schultz’s Broward district was blown up by the new Republican reconfiguration of the congressional map.
“The strongest candidate in the race is me,” Cherfilus-McCormick said. “I never said I wasn’t running.”
The former congresswoman made it clear she doesn’t care for Wasserman Schultz, the senior Democratic member of Florida’s congressional delegation. When she was first elected, in a 2022 special election to fill the vacancy left by the late U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings, Cherfilus-McCormick said Wasserman Schultz was dismissive when she arrived in Washington.
“One of the first things that ever happened when I came into Congress, she told me I wouldn’t be in Congress for more than 5 minutes, and here we are, five years still fighting. So I wish everyone well, but what I know is that in our district we’ll be fighting and we’ll make sure that the Black voice, as well as everybody’s voice is not diluted, and that’s what this is about, to make sure that everyone’s voice is being heard.”
Cherfilus-McCormick made her comments in response to reporters’ questions just before a gathering of members from about 20 Broward Democratic clubs, organized by Barbara Effman, president of the West Broward Democratic Club. Effman is a longtime Wasserman Schultz supporter.
Wasserman was the evening’s major speaker and arrived at the event as reporters were talking to Cherfilus-McCormick. The two didn’t cross paths.
Markwayne Mullin tells ICE hunger-strikers who want 'ethnic food' to 'go back to their country'

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin channeled the same anti-immigrant rhetoric as Trump on Wednesday, claiming that the New Jersey ICE facility detainees on hunger strike are only doing so because they want "ethnic food."
"There was only a handful of individuals that was refusing to eat because they want their ethnic group, or their ethnic-right food. Well, they can go back to their country and get whatever food they want," Mullin said during a televised Cabinet meeting. “The fact is, we’re giving them the calories they want. This isn’t Holiday Inn.”
His comments came after Democratic members of Congress who visited Delaney Hall in Newark said detainees are being given small portions of food that "very often" contain maggots. U.S. Rep. Adriano Espaillat described the conditions as "inhumane" and vowed to shut the center down.
Protesters have been demonstrating for days and asserting that detainees at the New Jersey facility are on a hunger strike.
U.S. Rep. Jerry Nadler, a Manhattan Democrat, said that the only medication they receive is Tylenol.

Newark NJ Police Department stands down during Delaney Hall protests

The Newark Police Department's (NPD) decision to stand down and refuse requests for assistance at the Delaney Hall detention facility is a direct reflection of a deep, ongoing political and operational conflict between New Jersey local/state officials and federal immigration authorities.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) publicly criticized the move in a statement, noting:
"Local police have refused to answer calls to help our law enforcement. We will not allow violent rioters to slow ICE down."
The situation boils down to a stark division over jurisdiction, local "sanctuary" laws, and escalating clashes at the facility.
Why the Newark Police Department Stood Down
The NPD's refusal to intervene aligns with local governance and a broader pushback against federal immigration operations in the state:The Washington Post
- Sanctuary Policies: Newark and New Jersey have strict policies restricting local law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement (ICE). Local officials argue that deploying city police resources to defend a private, federal immigration facility goes against municipal directives.The Washington Post
- Political Alignment: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has been a vocal opponent of the facility, previously attempting to send city fire and code enforcement officials to inspect it, only to be blocked by federal authorities. Mayor Baraka recently called on New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill to launch an investigation into the facility. NJ Spotlight News
- The State Law Context: New Jersey passed a law banning the operation of private immigration detention centers. However, a federal legal challenge struck down the ban, allowing ICE and the private prison company GEO Group to reopen the 1,000-bed Delaney Hall facility. Local authorities view the facility's continued operation as an overreach against state intent. The Guardian
The police department's refusal to assist comes during a week of intense turmoil at the facility, driven by a reported hunger strike and severe clashes outside the gates:
- The Hunger and Work Strike: Approximately 300 detainees signed a public letter alleging "deplorable" and "inhumane" conditions, insufficient medical care, and small food portions contaminated with maggots. Visiting Democratic members of Congress corroborated reports of medical neglect, citing detainees with untreated cancer or suspected breast lumps.The Guardian
- Federal Denials: DHS and Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin have fiercely denied the existence of a hunger strike or subprime conditions, labeling the allegations "smears" and a "political stunt." The Guardian
- Violent Clashes: Protests have escalated, with federal agents deploying pepper spray and pepper balls into crowds. High-profile figures, including U.S. Senator Andy Kim, reported being pepper-sprayed by federal agents during an attempted oversight visit. Houston Chronicle
- Recent Arrests: DHS confirmed that federal authorities arrested at least two protesters for assaulting, resisting, and impeding federal officers, accusing them of spraying law enforcement with an unknown chemical substance.
Because local police are staying out of the conflict, security at the perimeter remains entirely under the control of helmeted, armed federal ICE agents and GEO Group personnel.

Mistaken Zeal - Maranatha Our Lord Is Coming - May 28
Clash Of Minds
Apr 27, 2025
For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. Romans 10:2.
There is a noisy zeal, without aim or purpose, which is not according to knowledge, which is blind in its operations and destructive in its results. This is not Christian zeal. Christian zeal is controlled by principle and is not spasmodic. It is earnest, deep, and strong, engaging the whole soul and arousing to exercise the moral sensibilities.
The salvation of souls and the interests of the kingdom of God are matters of the highest importance. What object is there that calls for greater earnestness than the salvation of souls and the glory of God? There are considerations here which cannot be lightly regarded. They are as weighty as eternity. Eternal destinies are at stake. Men and women are deciding for weal or woe. Christian zeal will not exhaust itself in talk, but will feel and act with vigor and efficiency. Yet Christian zeal will not act for the sake of being seen. Humility will characterize every effort and be seen in every work. Christian zeal will lead to earnest prayer and humiliation, and to faithfulness in home duties. In the family circle will be seen the gentleness and love, benevolence and compassion, which are ever the fruits of Christian zeal....
Oh, how few feel the worth of souls! How few are willing to sacrifice to bring souls to the knowledge of Christ! There is much talking, much professed love for perishing souls; but talk is cheap stuff. It is earnest Christian zeal that is wanted—a zeal that will be manifested by doing something. All must now work for themselves, and when they have Jesus in their hearts they will confess Him to others. No more could a soul who possesses Christ be hindered from confessing Him than could the waters of Niagara be stopped from flowing over the falls.
Eternal life should engage the deepest interest of every Christian. To be a co-worker with Christ and the heavenly angels in the great plan of salvation! What work can bear any comparison with this! From every soul saved there comes to God a revenue of glory to be reflected upon the one saved and also upon the one instrumental in his salvation.

How a Family of 4 Lives on $225,000 a Year in Washington Heights
Photographs by Bess Adler May 25, 2026
How can people possibly afford to live in one of the most expensive cities on the planet? It’s a question New Yorkers hear a lot, often delivered with a mix of awe, pity and confusion.
We surveyed hundreds of New Yorkers about how they spend, splurge and save. We found that many people — rich, poor or somewhere in between — live life as a series of small calculations that add up to one big question:
Ellen Hagan grew up in a small town in Kentucky, and moved to New York City as quickly as she could after she graduated from college. She arrived a few weeks before Sept. 11, and tried to get her bearings in a city turned upside down.
She found a group of fellow young artists and writers who wanted to take advantage of everything they could in the city, on very limited budgets. They went to poetry readings and dance parties, and rented tiny apartments in the East Village.
All the while, Ms. Hagan was diligent about saving money, even when she had very little of it.
“I didn’t know what I was saving for, but I knew I wasn’t going to have a job that would give me a pension,” she said. “I wanted to make enough money to live the New York existence I was dreaming of.”

David Bass: Christian J. Pinto Interview | Vatican II Spiritual Evolution & Luciferian New Age
The Real Reveal
May 25, 2026
What is the connection between Vatican II and the New Age Movement?
Tonights guest is Christian J. Pinto, director and producer of American Jesuits: A History of Jesuitism in the United States.
We draw on his expertise in research about the Jesuit order to determine why Jesuit author Teilhard de Chardin was known as the “Father of the New Age”. How did his alleged involvement with the “missing link” hoax in 1912 (known as The Piltdown Man) relate to the overarching agenda to connect science with spirituality and push the gnostic belief in Spiritual Evolution beyond the Creator.
This episode also covers:
Vatican II
Globalisation
Ecumenism
Adam Weishaupt (Enlightenment beliefs)
Jesuit Theatre and Tactics
Transhumanism (Evolutionary Materialism meets Mysticism)
And more…

“Enslaving Treaties – The Persistence of Colonial Ideology and Practice...."
“Enslaving Treaties – The Persistence of Colonial Ideology and Practice and the Quest for Sustainable Decolonization including Litigation”
The World Council of Churches (WCC), through its programme on Overcoming Racism, Xenophobia, and Related Discrimination, will convene on 26 May a global conversation shining a critical light on how colonial ideology continues to shape today’s economic systems through international investor treaties, especially the Investor-State Dispute Settlement system.

Titled “Enslaving Treaties – The Persistence of Colonial Ideology and Practice and the Quest for Sustainable Decolonization including Litigation,” the webinar will seek to expose how legal and financial frameworks established during and after colonial rule continue to constrain the sovereignty of nations in the Global South—often at the expense of human dignity, environmental protection, and intergenerational justice.
From the WCC’s 1st Assembly in Amsterdam in 1948, the WCC warned against the dangers of unchecked power—whether capitalist or communist—recognizing how vast economic and political concentrations of power give rise to greed, cruelty, and systemic injustice. The WCC also acknowledged that visions of racial equality, however imperfect, resonated deeply with peoples in Asia and Africa who were living under racist colonial domination.
Decades later, those warnings remain strikingly relevant.
International investor treaties, particularly those signed at the twilight of colonial rule or in its immediate aftermath, continue to bind developing nations into relationships of profound inequality. Often mediated through Euro-American economic frameworks, these treaties have created what many describe as a condition of “willing enslavement”—where governments are penalized for prioritizing environmental protection, public welfare, and climate action.
Through investor-state dispute settlement mechanisms, multinational corporations can sue governments for enacting climate or environmental regulations, effectively silencing democratic decision-making and perpetuating racialized economic injustice.
Building on its longstanding commitment to economic justice, climate justice, and children’s rights—including initiatives such as the New International Financial and Economic Architecture (NIFEA) and the Churches’ Commitment to Children programme—the WCC is reiterating the call to churches and ecumenical partners to speak truth to power, including embracing litigation as an appropriate approach to seeking justice for the marginalized and vulnerable communities.
The upcoming webinar will explore how churches can engage morally, ethically, and legally to challenge unjust treaties, including through third-party interventions in investor-state dispute settlement mechanisms cases. At stake is nothing less than the future of communities disproportionately affected by the climate emergency—especially racialized children, girls, and young women.
The webinar discussion will unpack the historical and contemporary realities of international investor treaties, particularly those rooted in the colonial and post-colonial eras. It will also explore strategies for effective, structured interventions by churches and ecumenical bodies to dismantle unjust and discriminatory economic frameworks.
As climate crises intensify and economic inequalities deepen, the WCC affirms that inaction is no longer a viable option.
This webinar marks a renewed call for churches worldwide to stand alongside marginalized communities, confront structures of domination, and work boldly toward a future where justice, sustainability, and dignity are not negotiable—but guaranteed.
From the Bronx to the Lecture Hall: What My Jesuit Education Taught Me About Voice and Vocation
by Etienne C. Toussaint
May 18, 2026
The candles were everywhere. That is the first thing I remember—their light flickering on Wheeler Avenue, a few blocks from where I grew up in the South Bronx. I was 14, holding a dry-cleaning ticket for my mother’s dress.
Amadou Diallo, a 23-year-old immigrant from Guinea, had been shot 41 times by New York City police officers in the vestibule of his apartment building. He had reached for his wallet. They thought it was a gun.
People were saying his name, saying they could not believe he was gone, wondering whether this time would be different. Others answered their own questions: It always ends this way, the cops always get a pass, this is how the system works. And some said nothing at all—just stood staring, or walked past trying to look unbothered, as if violence had become weather in the neighborhood, ordinary as air.
I stood there in that light and felt something shift. I was about to graduate from elementary school as my class valedictorian. I was on my way somewhere. My teachers had told me so. My mother had told me so. I was doing everything right. But that night I understood, without yet having the language, that success did not guarantee safety. The world I was entering had rules not written with me in mind. There were walls I had not built but would still have to face.
I did not yet know that those walls would become the architecture of my vocation. Diallo’s death did more than teach me that policing can be brutal. It taught me that the world was more dangerous for people who looked like me. And somewhere on Wheeler Avenue, without choosing it, I stopped being a child.
My grandmother, whenever she asked about school, had a way of leaning forward, veins rising in her neck and forehead, eager to hear my grades even though she could barely read. She knew an A meant I was going somewhere further than she could go. But when news like this came, she would simply say “bondye” in Creole, speak a silent prayer, then turn to me: “Etienne, don’t go by there. You have to be careful, you know. Stay home. Do your homework.” She said it as if the words could hold the world in place a little longer. Yet even as she spoke, I could see in her face a silent knowing—that homework and staying home were not enough.
Later that night, after I gave my mother her dress—the one she would wear to my graduation—I crumpled the dry-cleaning ticket and let it fall into the trash. But even after it had left my grasp, I still felt the weight of Wheeler Avenue in my hands. And a few months later, even after I had walked through the doors of Regis High School in Manhattan, I still did not understand the tradition I was entering.

Donald Trump: Imposing the World’s Last Superpower
Sunday March 1st, 2026
Listen to article on Soundcloud
By Pastor Hal Mayer
Dear Friends,
Welcome to Keep the Faith Ministry once again. Today, we’re going to look at the rise of the second beast of Revelation 13, which, as you know represents the United States. There is no other power in the world capable of doing what America can do. There is no other power that can shake the nations and make them worry about things that the old-world order kept out of the conversation. There is no other power that will force its will on the rest of the world. So, let’s begin with prayer.
Our Father in heaven, we sense that Revelation 13 is being fulfilled right before our eyes. Please join us today as we study this important chapter in the Bible and help us understand the effect of American geopolitical reach on your people, and the outcome. Please help us to understand how this prophecy gives us certainty of the future. So, lead us today as we study, in Jesus name, amen.
Turn with me in your Bibles to Revelation 13:11-17.
“And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”
The second beast of Revelation 13 exercises all the power of the first beast. This means that America is going to rise to greater power than ever before. And she will do incredible geopolitical things that have not been seen in history before. In the dark ages, Rome controlled the world, and she persecuted and slaughtered those who did not agree with her narrative. Many Sabbatarians and others were slain as martyrs. But Rome eventually was throttled by Napoleon’s general and sustained a deadly wound. One of the reasons was that God was going to shift geopolitical power to a land that was then unknown or nearly unknown. Some people wanted to be free of persecution and worship restrictions in England and wanted to worship God according to their consciences, so they came to the shores of America. Miraculously, the American colonies survived and formed the nation and built a powerhouse that cannot be stopped, unless God intervenes. Let’s read from Great Controversy, page 292.
