MSNBC-Part 58

Here we go!!

Nooo Katie Phang having Eddie Glaude on.

She referred to the two of them as "black and brown people" and bemoaned their lack of influence on the political scene. Hon, your skin is not brown, the two of you have a national platform, you're both millionaires with Ivy League degrees, and there's no excuse for the two of you not taking leaves of absence to drum up the Democratic vote if that matters to you. It appears Glaude only showed up to promote his new book, and God knows we've had enough of MSNBC hosts doing that.

It was a silly segment^

Thank goodness we didn’t contract Eddie Glaude as a commentator.

Katie Phang having Eddie Glaude on Lawrence’s show is repulsive.

Lawrence would never have that quack on.

Sometimes, a transition is orderly because the members are orderly.

This is obviously a thread of grownups.

Congrats.

Lisa is taking down the Trump Defense on MJ.

Beautiful.

What’s on Lisa Rubin’s head?

I have the fail OP on block already so can’t save this thread in thread-watcher. I only block Trump trolls so take that as you will.

OP, are you also the OP of the current Theatre Gossip thread?

Yeah. what's with not being able to save the thread?

How are people getting around that? Happened last time - 57 - too.

TIA

I’m the OP and I’m not a Trump troll. If you do have me blocked, it’s probably because you’re some kind of moron.

I never post in Theatre Gossip.

[quote]What’s on Lisa Rubin’s head?

It wasn't just her head; it was the whole severe look.

When I saw her on MJ, I was thinking, "I can imagine her in a Dario Argento movie."

This Dump Trial on loop.

What will Nicolle talk about when it’s over??

4:00pm: Time for "Howling Ha Ha and The Hyenas."

Poor Andrew.

Katy Turd.

Discuss her fuckery today.

R14, the next trial, the election, Ken Burns next project?

Poor Glenn and Danny.

Rachel and the gang are having a 2 hr special on the trial tonight. Recaps of closing arguments

Rachel's hair has magically grown since last Monday.

Is Rach an Auntie?

Ari was not happy about a WOMAN disagreeing with him.

Katie schooled them all.

Katy schooled Ari Melber? I think he may have the biggest ego of all of them, and that's sayin' somethin'! (oh not counting Scarborough)

Can anybody give me the gist of Trump's attack on big Joe? I get a bit sick trying to watch the news.

And fellow "fucking liberals", are you worried that Trump's gonna fulfil his promise to "get rid" of us?

Spit out those words, Andrea!!!

Welcome to the second hour of Chris Jansing Presents

🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮

Is it done yet?

Andrea is lost in time. Did she exclaim again today she was appalled by Hillary’s Emails?

Ari has an affection for Republican guest commentators and rappers not endorsing Joe Biden.

Lisa Rubin looked ready to snatch that clam shell art project off Joy Ann's head! Thing snapped, turned and dismissed Lisa's opinion on the makeup of the jury.

Joy Ann, you do not have to interject "right" "yeah" --interrupting while your guests are speaking in your rush to upstage them. They do not need your assent. Watch some of your better colleagues as they host; you don't know how much you are alienating your guests by making them feel rushed and unheard.

Poor Katie. Poor Lisa. Poor Andrew (who can barely contain his contempt)

^and cut the fucking theatrical renditions when reading others' dialogue.

Katie Phang a rising star??

Here’s an idea Rashida. Replace the Hamas Block (Joy, Chrissy, and Alex), with Symone, Katie, and Jen Psaki. Think of it this way: you’ll be single-handedly be helping to reduce hate crimes against Jews!

[quote]Ari has an affection for Republican guest commentators and rappers not endorsing Joe Biden.

YEP, he SOOOOOOO wants to be a black guy it's becoming kind of a weird kink fetish played out on live TV.

This^…I thought I was the only one who thought this. I’m not saying he’s gay, or even bi, but I’d bet $$$ that he’s sucked lots more than one BBC.

Rachel is in the house!

Why isn't the panel smiling? This a very good thing.

Former President and Convicted Felon.

Get used to saying that. Hold the media accountable if they whitewash the latter part.

Michael Cohen to be on at 8:00 tonight, this should be good.

Harry Litman has the right spirit, I can always count on him.

Since Trump is now a CONVICTED Felon, shouldn't MSNBC and all the others be required to disclose that on AIR every time he is being interviewed for the sake of transparency? Not mentioning that out of "courtesy" is really sort of white washing things and picking sides.

Will they take away his gun? He says he has one. Convicted felons are not allowed legally to posses a gun I thought?

Doesn't he lose the right to vote as a convicted felon?

Florida law defers to the state of the felony conviction. Under New York law, a felon only loses the right to vote only while in prison.

I think he deserves capital punishment.

Assuming Rachel is coming back w/ Chris Hayes & Katie Phang at 8pm?

I think Lisa Rubin is very into her job and works hard, I like that.

I see they put Lisa Rubin out on the street.

I see Lisa Rubin was let out of the house today wearing a hideous pastel pink ensemble with a large matching Dianne Feinstein tie. She should never wear pink! Especially today! Fuck Trump!

Michael Cohen will be on at 8PM

Why does Joy have to pretend to be a criminal trial expert when they have actual experts sitting right there?

Michael Cohen can be quite amusing.

The A team is on now

Is Rachel going to explain to us how Dump was convicted 34 times? We know bitch, tell us something new.

Chris Hayes needs to tighten it up

Michael Cohen went to prison and it woke him up.

What’s the quote? A republican becomes a liberal when he’s arrested

Nicolle, that shade of red does not become you. Just a little friendly advice.

Nicolle is wearing a FALL colour in SUMMER?

She obviously took my advice about the prairie hair, why not give it another go.

Stephanie Ruhl is the best dressed woman on MSNBC.

I'm going to miss seeing that cutie Vaughn Hillyard on tv all day.

Who's the new gay guy on there with the beard? He's a lawyer I think, saw pics of him and his husband on the internet so defiantly gay. He's kind of cute but not by DL standards.

I have NEVER seen a news anchor in more need of a stylist than Nicolle Wallace.

I think Vaughn Hillyard is a rising star at MSNBC.

He acquitted himself quite well over the course of the trial reporting, and he is whip smart, with an incredible memory and grasp of details from years ago. And he's great on his feet with off-the-cuff commentary.

He was generally a man on the street reporter and they have begun highlighting him and bringing him into the studio for commentary as part of a round-table discussion.

Always like to see a successful member of the tribe. Bravo, Vaughn! Nice job!

And here’s Lisa Ruben sucking every molecule of oxygen out of the studio. I generally like her, but, ugggh!

Love her fresh water pearls...

I don’t think such a prominent piece of jewelry should be worn every day.

Put Katy Tur out of her miserable misery.

Katy Tur is long overdue to being canned (at least being on air). They did the same thing with Chuck Todd. He’s finally off air (mostly)

Katy looks like she’s doing the viewers a favor with her presence.

And Meet the Press needs to be shutdown. It was never the same without Tim Russett

Shut this asshole up. Turn him off.

On Dateline White House last night when they went to Katy Tur on the street outside the courthouse, it almost seemed - though it could be in my mind only - that she was trying to make amends for her recent behavior. She seemed very even handed re: trump. and "sympathetic" to the prosecution's win.

It also seemed like they didn't have a choice and had to go to her only because she was there at the courthouse - it was a very quick piece with her comments and then they quickly dismissed her.

Chris, Andrea and Katy, ages 67, 77 and 40.

Katy Tur is soo Anti-Biden.

Tim Miller’s eye rolls everytime she talks is priceless.

Now CUNT Katy Tur is saying this is Biden’s war too????

This chick is fucking BONKERS.

Andrew Weissmann needs to tell Katy Tur to STFU!

[quote]And Meet the Press needs to be shutdown. It was never the same without Tim Russett

It's Russet, r69.

Do media outlets pay attention to Twitter trends? Tur trends on a practically weekly basis with disgruntled MSNBC viewers going on about a variety of complaints about her. Folks grouse more about her than Andrea Mitchell.

Ellen Barkin hate tweets her.

Jasmine Crockett got Katy Tur too.

Chris Jansing VS. Katy Tur will eventually happen…

Katy Tur will not be able to land interviews with Democratic politicians anymore since everyone knows she’s a Trump operative. She’s a liability to MSNBC. She really needs to move to Fox.

Listening to Andrea, Chris J and Katie T for any length of time is agony.

Die, Katie, die.

Why isn’t Andrea put out to pasture? She is nearly as incoherent as Trump.

And Tur is a Trump shill and needs to go. The two of them together are insufferable.

Katy Turd gotta go. MAGA hag.

[quote] Listening to Andrea, Chris J and Katie T for any length of time is agony.

Chris J is all right.

But, Turd and Andrea need to go. Long overdue

Andrew Weissmann is probably soo happy to be on with Nicolle Wallace after dealing with the PSYCHOTIC TRIPLETS.

Is anyone else annoyed by this National Enquirer dude?

I find him to have a tabloid personality, r88.

Can't stand National Enquirer dude. Really can't stand him. He always makes it all about himself and he has a very grating personality.

I don't know why he is still on; he may have been valuable when Pecker was testifying, but he no longer adds anything to the conversation. Why is MSNBC still using him?

He should take his ego and go away. .

Oh, and, he's just as guilty as the rest of AMI. He sleazed for a long time not getting caught. When he though he might get caught, he bailed. But for years he was a mover and shaker at the Enquirer, and as sleazy as the Enquirer has always been. He knew what that paper was like when he took the job.

His hands are NOT clean. Now he's playing the innocent.

[quote]Die, Katie, die.

People need to be more clear who they are talking about. MSNBC has KATIE Phang, and also KATY Turd.

I meant Tur.

It’s always Katy Turd r92

Funny when Michael Cohen said it was Ozempic that made Trump look so bad. Love Nicolle's long form interview.

Joy's new wavy wig is very retro. But why?

It is a blonde Marcel wave on a black woman.

If you see her in a banana skirt and naked titties, RUN!

She be BAKED!

It's time to flush Katy Turd.

How did Katy Turd land her hot husband Tony?

Has Tony not fucked her in months?

This CUNT needs a fuck immediately because her KAREN persona is a zero.

Stephanie Rhule always showing her rich, privilege persona.

Ugh Katy Tur is back.

Katy Tur definitely takes Balance of Nature.

The egotistical annoying Australian is on 'The Weekend'. Had to stop watching because his voice is now like nails on a chalkboard.

When will his 15 minutes be up?

Whoever here that knows the Rashida lady, could you please have a word with her?

Symone is SUPER ANNOYING today.

Katy Tur has trended on Twitter for three straight days now.

The Weekend wass on FIRE this morning.

Cohen 🔥🔥🔥

Jamal 🔥🔥🔥

Can't wait for the debates.

Rashida, switch time slots with Velshi, so I don't have to watch America's Test Kitchen on Pluto for two hours before Katie Fang.

Rashida, let me sleep!

[quote] Katy Tur definitely takes Balance of Nature.

What a scam that shit is. MSNBC should be ashamed promoting that crap.

[quote] Symone is SUPER ANNOYING today.

I agree! I usually like her but damn sister, dial it back a bit.

No Ayman tonight? Guess he had something better to do this Saturday night.

He couldn't blame Biden for the Israeli/ Hamas ceasefire.

Antisemite Jamaal Bowman knows he is losing.

He can only land the weekend for press?

Ever since Katy Tur cut her hair and started dressing like a lesbian, she got bonkers and aggressive about Dump.

The Weekend was on 🔥🔥🔥 again this morning.

Rashida, please move Velshi to after Psaki/Phang and move up The Weekend!

[quote]Now CUNT Katy Tur is saying this is Biden’s war too???? This chick is fucking BONKERS.

Well, have you seen her father who now identifies as she/her? Enough said.

[quote] The Weekend was on 🔥🔥🔥 again this morning.

Did Symone calm down a little from yesterday?

Happy Pride from Joy!

Translation: Please don't get me fired for those homophobic tweets i made years ago.

I can believe Joy’s views have evolved. I just wish she hadn’t insisted that forces unknown hacked her blog and planted homophobic posts. That’s unacceptable for a journalist.

She’s not a journalist.

[quote]I can believe Joy’s views have evolved.

They totally have, if she even ever had those views at all. However, the white queens of DL refuse to give a black woman grace when there are people out here who would actively see to their demise and who truly deserve the derision.

What’s with Jen’s black roots? Fix that shit, Red.

I watched the special about the Trump trial which was advertised as Rachel and Andrew W's show but it was just Andrew. Rachel only did an introduction. He hosted the show quite well and it was interesting to hear the comments from the staff who were in the courtroom.

Is Ari Melber jealous of Andrew/Lisa/Katie P. ?

Ari's ego is getting out of control hanging out with those black rapper dudes all day every day. I am surprised he has not bitch slapped someone yet.

Ari should bitch slap Katy Turd.

Andrea sucks bigly today.

She kinda does, r126.

Ugh Katy Turd 💩

Ari is a pompous ass on so many lessons.

🤢🤢🤢

Stephanie needs to take it easy on the lip enhancement. She’s a beautiful woman, she doesn’t want to turn into Lisa Rinna, a circus freak.

[ R 123 ] Yes, Ari is jealous of Andrew, Lisa and Katy P. but overshadowing that is his pompous hip hop wannabe narcissism.

Rachel 🔥

New wig for Doris Kearns Goodwin.

Another useless hearing led by Jim Jordan. Merrick Garland this time.

Doesn't Gympanzee have some subpoenas of his own to respond to in the Ohio State cases (among others)?

Good for the gentleman who introduced Matt Gaetz's alleged sexual abuse charges into the proceedings. Unfortunately, FiveHead had already left for another engagement and didn't hear the taunt directly.

John Heilemann has Andrew Weissmann, not Ari Melber on his new podcast.

Fun Fact:

Both Jared & Ivanka have Felon

Fathers!!!

💩💩

How proud to be their children.

How many buildings in Harvard will be necessary. Or is Penn, Whoreton school of Fraud, a better bet?

Stephanie on Joy was on 🔥🔥🔥.

Trump is a fucking capitalist, y'all.

It's all about the money..

[quote]It's all about the money..

Imagine that.

[quote]Both Jared & Ivanka have Felon Fathers!!!

When is "Felonious Fathers' Day" celebrated?

R141 July 11, 2024

July 11th is my birthday. What a wonderful gift this will be.

So will the 30 or so countries like the UK actually fallow through with their exiting laws against letting known felons into the country when it comes to Dump?

What about Ireland? Turmp owns a gold course there he goes to once and a while. Will they ban him from entering the country?

Stephanie Rhule crying at the end of tonight’s broadcast.

Jen Psaki giving Carrot Top a run for his money. Chris Matthews screaming. Just what I wanted this morning.

R145 why was she crying?

R145 She was remembering Ben Walker, CNBC contributor, journalist and frequent guest on her show, who died Saturday after a brief illness.

^^^^^I meant R147, not R145.

Someone suggested this morning that donald be referred to not as a "felon," but as a "criminal."

All felons are criminals, but not all criminals are felons; however, the social stigma associated with the word criminal is more pronounced.

donald is a criminal convicted of a felony. Start calling him by the noun "convict" for extra impact.

Katy Tur + Jake Sherman = 💩

Mr. & Mrs. Wallace-Schmidt on set together today.

R150, I trust that will be poll-tested.

Heilemann-Weissmann-Miller!!!

Nicolle and her dudes!

I'm watching the MSNBC feed of the Senate vote to make contraception a right. Republicans voting NO. So they've never used contraception and think it's evil? Every fucking one of them?

Actress Yvette-Nicole Brown continues to drag Eddie Glaude on Twitter for his mega fuckery, this time over his suggestion that Biden is part of the moderate whites that MLK warned about. He’s essentially playing the same bullshit card that he dealt with Hillary in 2016. I suspect he will not be on MSNBC today.

The far left is determined to elect Jabba the Trump

She is doing that r156 and I’m loving it. Eddie Glaude is pompous ass trash!

No Love for Susanne Craig here? I really enjoyed her daily presentations (along with Andrew Weissmann) during the DUMP trial. She has a beautiful smile too!

I like Susanne Craig a lot. I think she is very good and very smart and added immeasurably to the build up to trump being convicted.

At the same time, I had a childish reaction to her commentating on air that she went out for drinks - admittedly a while back - with the ego driven Australian from the Enquirer. I found it disappointing that she socialized with that asshole. What made it worse, I think, was that the asshole told her all about the catch and kill hi-jinks. So she's known about all this for a while. And not written about it, as far as I know.

Maybe if one is in the club, everyone plays nice together. But I thought she was in a better league than the Enquirer.

Childish, I know, but I looked at her a little differently.

r160 - Didn't know that about her and the Australian Goon tipping a few together. I agree that he is a LOUT in every sense of the word. Anyway, I still like her and her 'matter of fact' details during the trial. Plus, she has that really cool cabin when does her remote segments.

Susanne Craig is obviously an Access Journalist.

I like Rep Jasmine Crockett and was glad to see her on the Chris Hayes show.

R160, that ego driven Australian from the Enquirer, Lachlan Cartwright, has long since moved from his tabloid past, having since worked for the Daily Beast & now with the Hollywood Reporter.

R165

[quote]Lachlan Cartwright, has long since moved from his tabloid past, having since worked for the Daily Beast & now with the Hollywood Reporter.

Yeah, I understand that some people grow and change for the better. But I didn't notice a personality transplant along with his change in employment. He's a cipher.

Zebras,stripes, etc.

Lawrence loves Adam Klassfeld.

Whoever did Jennifer Palmieri’s makeover should visit Molly Jong-Fast. You’ve come a long way, sister, keep going. Jennifer’s beautiful now and shows you what’s possible. Lookin’ good Steph! Reed Galen is funny. He should play for our team.

[quote]No Love for Susanne Craig here?

Is she a lesbian? She ticks all the boxes and several more.

The word “beautiful” should never be used in the same sentence as hideous Jennifer Palmieri.

I can think of better sources of political advice than Donnie Deutsch.

Lay off the Ozempic, Kelly O'Donnell. Girl is not looking well.

I'm picturing the thought bubble above Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett's beautiful head as she sits across from the empty-headed Many Ha Ha.

Poor Jasmine Crockett. Poor Frank Figluzzi.

Ari's Booker Must work of the same list as The View. Poor Rin Howard is going to have his rap chops tested by Rashida's in house wigger.

Some Kermit rapping?

Oh Joy!!!

Will Joy Ann Reid, during her interview with Byron Donalds regarding his admiration of Jim Crow and its effect on the Black family, make note of the Black Florida Man's White wife?😱

Well played, Ms. Reid!!! Thank you for asking if his interracial marriage would have been accepted under Jim Crow.

Oh, the look on that man's face!

She read him to filth and chewed his ass like a junk yard dog.

She took the House N----- to the woodshed and introduced him to Jesus .

She went there with the white wife.

Joy laid his ass bare. Had him stuck at one point. It was pathetic to watch.

Yuck Antisemitic Jamaal Bowman.

Bless Eric Swalwell mentioning the hostages.

Swalwell is growing bigger and bigger balls as the years go by. Think he even has his own lawsuit against Trump for putting his life and others in danger, AKA the insurrection.

He loved to eat my pussy, R180.

^^^^^^^^^^

Pics please.

[quote]Swalwell is growing bigger and bigger balls as the years go by.

And this pic is photographic evidence...

Chris Jansing is wearing a pretty top today.

Katy Turd 💩

Chris has a grinning idiot on, Michelle Goodwin, who has resting grinning idiot face.

You know the face. Ro Khana has it, the big smile like I AM ON TV!!! Big grinning idiot face that dissapears when he answeres a serious question, but it returns when he is finished.

But this Michelle Goodwin has a huge mouth that the grinning idiot resting face is quite disconcerting as it is disconnected from the subject kmatter that got her the spit.

Big grinning idiot smile

So how about that Clarence Thomas...

Big grinning idiot smile.

I hope she is not asked back.

Hope Andrew Weissmann is at his Hamptons house.

He fucking deserves it!

Total freak show on Stephanie Ruhl. Crazy pro-choice lady talks about Magats believing that immigrant kids poop in cat boxes. I just can't.

Stephanie is trying to go for the popular, non political, group that Ari isn't going for.

Ari is a crazy wigger fawning over BBC and Stephanie is a crazy suburban soccer mom.

Both have become unwatchable.

[quote]Stephanie Rhule crying at the end of tonight’s broadcast.

Stephanie Ruhle needs to get the ridiculous crying episodes under control. I cannot watch her after witnessing her full-on bawling over Jussie Smollett years ago.

Symone looks like Tim Scott getting ready to do drag but without putting the wig on.

R191, Tim Scott looks like Beetlejuice from Howard Stern.

Velshi opens with Israeli Hostages. Time for the two-hour nap before Katie.

Luff Ari and Steph. Two of my favorite shows!

Joy and Sunny Hostin should host a show together. It would grab DOZENS of viewers

R195, And Jonathan Capehart could be their Ed McMahon.

I don't have the strength to hate watch a Sunny/Joy show. I'm not a fan but I think Joy is brighter.

Raf Sanchez, the Hamas ho, was reporting on the recent recovery of four Israeli hostages, had to sneak in more “Hamas/Gaza Health Ministry” lies about some alleged Israeli atrocity(at the end). He has become Tokyo Rose and Bagdad Bob rolled into one. There was no attribution that The “Gaza Health Ministry” is run by Hamas. No acknowledgment that the UN has halved the alleged “casualty” numbers provided/claimed by Hamas. It is obvious that MSNBC has taken a side (Hamas), and has become no different than Pravda, Faux, or Goebbels when it comes to Israel/Jews.

[quote]Velshi opens with Israeli Hostages. Time for the two-hour nap before Katie.

What's your point, R193? I cannot stand the whiplash on this site. One minute y'all are slamming Velshi and Ayman for being pro-Muslim, anti-Semitic stooges who don't gaf about the Israeli hostages; the next you're whining about them bringing up the hostages on their shows.

R191 Do we know why Symone is bald? And why she doesn’t wear wigs? She has severe egg head. Fake lashes and red lipstick on an X-large brown egg.

R200

Stephanie Ruhle's crying thing annoys me, it seem very strategically placed at the end of her shows. That said, she is the ONLY ONE who really points out the BS of Wall Street CEO's who are all backing Trump while making record profits under Biden. There is a total disconnect there that needs the light shined on it more often.

Trump will cut their taxes.

The end.

And add another 1 TRILLION to the national debt in the process.

Tax cuts are not free, they are welfare for the rich.

Stephanie is a great business reporter but is unsuited to the job she has now. Corny questions and really not a huge amount of sophistication.

[quote]I'm not a fan but I think Joy is brighter.

Sunny graduated from Catholic Uni, Notre Dame in Indiana and Joy graduated Harvard.

Your call...

[quote]Total freak show on Stephanie Ruhl. Crazy pro-choice lady talks about Magats believing that immigrant kids poop in cat boxes. I just can't.

You may want to rewatch the episode, R188, because you are totally mischaracterizing panelist Lizz Winstead (one of the creators of "The Daily Show") and the discussion.

That was Lizz Winstead?. Dear God. What happened? Yes, I know she got old. I think I aptly characterized the discussion. Not my cup of tea. Different strokes, etc.

The Weekend is great. I love the banter between Symone, Michael and Alicia and love that they keep it real.

Are they keepin’ it 💯?

Keep it real, R209?

By never even mentioning the Bob Menendez story because his daughter is one of the hosts?

By not mentioning the Facebook post made by a cousin of one of the hush money jurors?

Symone saying this morning that Trump deserves jail time because she’s been black all her life?

[quote] By not mentioning the Facebook post made by a cousin of one of the hush money jurors?

The person who posted that came forward and said it was a joke.

Why am I so disgusted by Symone's fingernails. I just can't watch her at all.

Does she wear those to distract from how ugly she is?

[quote] Symone saying this morning that Trump deserves jail time because she’s been black all her life?

Didn’t see the show, but I’m pretty sure you are distorting what she said.

R214, That is an exact quote of what she said. Anyone who saw the first hour today will confirm it.

R212, Not true.

Link, R212?

She was answering the question “Would you want to be the first judge to send a former President to prison?” Not “Should Trump go to prison.?”

[quote] Anderson did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BI sent through Facebook, but in a public post added to his profile shortly after BI reached out, he wrote, "Take it easy, I'm a professional shitposter," along with a laughing emoji and the Wikipedia definition of shitposting.

LOL . . . And the difference is, R218???

It was an absurd remark, even for her.

[quote]Total freak show on Stephanie Ruhl. Crazy pro-choice lady talks about Magats believing that immigrant kids poop in cat boxes. I just can't.

You wouldn't believe what MAGAts believe.

R219, Of course he’ll say anything now to protect himself from being blamed for causing a disruption.

The difference is that the question she was answering assumes that prison is warranted and asks whether or not she would be afraid to be the judge who does it. She is saying, as a Black person, she would happily take on the risk because it is important to see the law applied to a powerful white person.

That does not mean Trump deserves prison because I’m Black.

He is still going to be blamed for causing a disruption.

Uh, nice try, R223, but no,

Sounds to me like he's happily accepting credit for the disruption,

R226, The identities of all his cousins need to be researched.

Keep trolling, r222/r225.

Look at him. He clearly IS a professional shitposter.

I’m sure they will ask the jury if any of them spoke to him. That will probably be the extent of the official investigation.

The MAGAs are not doubt investigating his family tree and threatening his life.

That is definitely a troll taking issue with Symone's comments this morning.

[quote]By never even mentioning the Bob Menendez story because his daughter is one of the hosts?

That is precisely why they can't mention it, genius.

Bullshit, R232.

The nepo daughter hasn’t been on every show, none of them have.

It could at least be mentioned in her absence.

Why is the cranky MAGA in this thread watching MSNBC? Some kind of bald woman fetish?

To pointlessly bitch, R234.

Jen Psaki changed her show format up since the debut.

Still a puff piece though…

I hate what they did making it a weekend show of 3. It feels like the corporate powers that be said, we were going to fire you but first you get one last chance to stay, here fight it out amongst yourself and in a year only one will be standing. Of course we still might cancel you all. It's the corporate way.

Where’s Joseph Scarborough????

He kinda makes the show not a bore when the Mrs. is running it.

His outrage is always so staged, even his other guests are quietly smiling because they saw him rehearse it before the show.

Can you imagine, if Tucker Carson had not been fired early on and still been on that show with him all these years?

MSNBC still beating January 6th to death.

Zzzzzzz . . .

Well, Trump wants to "free the hostages" AKA the criminals who were prosecuted for it, so Jan 6th is very on topic until Dump goes away.

I know—an attempted coup by the leading candidate for President is so last year.

[quote]MSNBC still beating January 6th to death.

Just wait till we get to the J6 Sedition Committee in 2025.

Much more progressive.

From 2021 . . .

[quote] MSNBC still beating January 6th to death.

Cops were beaten to death that day. The Constitution was nearly beaten to death that day. Yet your psychotic, unjustifiable perspective on Jan 6th lives on.

Here, R246, clutch these.

I like how all the AI Trolls are suddenly in downplay mode.

Downplay the Trump felony convictions.

Downplay the Trump criminal evidence.

Downplay the other Trump indictments.

Go clutch Trump's anal beads r247, et al.

Nicole looks different today. It’s not just the flat hair, although that’s not very flattering

I think it is the less makeup is better trend that Stephanie started. The tarted up Kari Lake look is more Fox, OAN and News Max worthy.

More newscaster nextdoor.

[quote]that’s not very flattering

It's flatting

What's under Claire's glass dome today?

It appears loaf-shaped.

r253 - whatever it is, there is always a piece/portion missing. I have yet to see a full/uneaten 'anything' under that glass dome. And each time she does a remote from her kitchen (which is frequently) it's often something different. I guess in between her on camera stints, she's busy baking something new and exciting and must sample the outcome to see if it's worthy of a place under the glass dome.

I always look forward to what's under the glass dome. She's enjoying her life, not wallowing in tears or hate or MAGAism. Baking is a good side hobby, to take your mind off things.

Ari is on another insufferable, pompous rant about European right-wingers after his initial lecture on court parole procedures.

R255 - Yes, baking can be therapeutic - just imagine what she could whip up if she were 'baked' while baking! I like Claire and she does bring worthwhile content to the panels as well as remotely.

R257, I kicked her ass.

Maddow Monday.

[quote]Yes, baking can be therapeutic

You may have won, but this is what you're best known for, R258.

R261, I prefer to be best known for this.

R249 I thought she looked different today, too. She might have had a slight sunburned face but that wasn't it. I couldn't figure it out.

r263 - It was the straight hair and different make-up.

It’s obvious there is at least one Ebonics speaker writing copy on each shift. It’s funny when it’s a thoroughly Caucasian news reader like Stephanie, Nicolle, or Chris Jansing cluelessly reading it. Lololol

Leave your lips alone, Stephanie, you’re approaching Lisa Rinna territory.

Is Andrew Weissmann’s family cabin in the Hamptons?

Jen Psaki always wants to chat w/ Rachel Maddow during the handoff… Rachel wants nothing to do with her. 😬

Miss Hawley with those gazelle strides, can do wide stances with ease.

Claire McCaskill called liberals “pansies” @ 7:14 AM on “Morning Joe”.

Rachel is asked if she worries she'll be targeted by Trump if he wins the election:

"I'm worried about the country broadly if we put someone in power who is openly avowing that he plans to build camps to hold millions of people, and to "root out" what he’s described in subhuman terms as his "enemy from within." Again, history is helpful here. He’s not joking when he says this stuff, and we’ve seen what happens when people take power proclaiming that kind of agenda.

I think there’s a little bit of head-in-the-sand complacency that Trump only intends to go after individual people he has already singled out. Do you really think he plans to stop at well-known liberals?

It also seems pretty clear that some people in politics might think they’ll be on the safe side -- that they might even benefit from it — if they side with Trump. Ask Mike Pence about how that works out in the end.

When Trump invokes the Insurrection Act to deploy the U.S. military against civilians on his first day in office, do you think he then rescinds the order on day two?

For that matter, what convinces you that these massive camps he’s planning are only for migrants?

So, yes, I’m worried about me — but only as much as I’m worried about all of us."

R271, MARY!!!

. . .

R270, I am sure she meant limp wristed heterosexuals.

Jen chat takes away Rachel show time. Lawrence chat gives Rachel more time.

R274, She outed herself as a homophobic hypocrite.

She meant “pussies,” but was afraid to say it.

Claire is the type of woman who married her “best friend.”

🤢

McCaskill actually made the comparison of Jill appearing in court and Melania not appearing as defining Biden’s vs. Trump’s characters.

"Raised by wolves." Andrew Weissmann's pitch-perfect assessment of the deplorables.

[quote]pitch-perfect assessment of the deplorables.

Bullshit, r280.

I offer a sincere mea culpa to any wolves who may have been offended by my post.

Based on the clip at R273, Biden doesn't freeze mid dance but instead just doesn't dance at all. And he sure does look like he's happy there.

R283. I’m 62 and that would be me. Big smile and zero dancing.

That would have been me at 22.

For some of us the desire to hide our lack of ability outweighs our desire to dance.

Poor Rachel, trying to instill some solemnity into her conversation with Many HaHa who, as usual, snickers, giggles and guffaws in the face of serious talk about the threats facing our country and the world.

Hilarity is her addiction, apparently.

Stop exaggerating, r287.

Pay closer attention, R288. Nicolle Wallace needs to work on her immaturity issues. Seriously.

Ari despises her, and can't sign on/be rid of her quickly enough.

Gotta love Dr. Diane Horvath OB/Gyn this afternoon following the Roberts Court decision, standing before a strategically placed framed print reading in part: "In this House ... Fuck The Supreme .. ,." her body obstructing the less relevant half of the poster..

Katy Tur mentioned it not.

Katy Turd’s Freudian slip earlier when she said “Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenskyy“ instead of “President Biden and Volodymyr Zelenskyy“ was pretty telling.

Fuck ya Lawrence O’ Donnell

I loved his comments about Ted Cruz.

Was Pelosi pre-taped or was she still up after 10:00 PM?

Jonathan Lemire referenced Dump’s visit to DC as a Hero’s Welcome.

Lemire is a sensationalist access news reader.

Just as bad as sycophant Jake Sherman.

💩

r302, he could have said Trump was Jefferson Davis returning to the scene of the crime.

It would have been just as anodyne, not hyperbole.

Apparently this happened:

[quote]This is Jill Biden with her son, Hunter. She married his father, Joe when he was 9. She tucked him in at night, said prayers with him, watched him grow, and loves him unconditionally. She is his mom.

[quote]Katy Tur knows this. Yet, she purposely pointed out on air that Jill is not his biological mother. This was cruel and simply not necessary at a time when the Biden family was dealing with the aftermath of the Delaware trial.

[quote]The truth is that @KatyTurNBC is a pro Trump journalist who is not above the use of cruelty to prop him up and carry him on air. Why does @MSNBC continue to keep her in their lineup? Do they agree with her pro Trump status? Do they care about integrity? Do they listen to their audience? Do they have no one better?

Doesn't seem we're exaggerating when we dump on her, but I don't see anything we can do that's effective.

Do we know that Katie did not follow Hope Hicks into the Air Force One office with Trump?

[quote]Jonathan Lemire referenced Dump’s visit to DC as a Hero’s Welcome.

Is it possible Lemire was being sarcastic? I'd like to believe it was sad in that spirit, most likely because I'd like to fuck him

Referring to Jill as Hunter’s mother is insulting to the memory of Neilia Biden.

No, it was said unironically.

And it was, with the perspective of the Plantation Confederates in Congress. You know, Trump's criminal co-conspirators for the Sedition.

^Bullshit

Katy Tur is a step-mother too.

She obviously does not have a good relationship with her step-kids or she wouldn’t have diminished that word referencing Jill Biden.

[quote]Jonathan Lemire referenced Dump’s visit to DC as a Hero’s Welcome.

It was clear he meant that's how Republicans treated him.

Calling him a sycophant deserves an eye-roll.

[quote]It was clear he meant that's how Republicans treated him.

Lemire's hatred of Dump is clear to me. He's derisive and references Dump as a threat to democracy often. I had a great FB that reminds me of Lemire and viewing him through that affectionate lens might colour my impression of him as a reporter

. As an aside: I do notice that when Lemire is excited about a topic, such as Dump being a threat to democracy, the pads of his fingers get very red, just like my beautiful ginger FB did when I plowed him.

Yes, I'm in Michigan, but why the explosion of Biden ads on MSNBC? Who's watching MSNBC who's not already voting for Biden?

Nicolle forgot to wear her Van Cleef & Arpels necklace today.

Good to see Susan Rice, I've always liked her.

^The DL gremlins are working overtime.

“The Weekend” is rapidly becoming unwatchable.

Watching it now. Will continue to watch it. Like it a lot, but Rashida needs to switch the two hours of Velshi with it. Velshi shouldn't be the lead in for Phang/Psaki.

I can't stand that Eugene Daniels - always waving his painted up nails around and the broach she wears each time is just a bit too 'Auntie Mame'. She brings nothing to the table except a whole lot of fluff.

Exactly. I’ve never heard him say anything insightful. Just common knowledge and conventional wisdom.

Ali Velshi rarely shows up for his own show.

Don’t care for Eugenia either. That raggedy bush is obnoxious and distracting.

Katy Tur has a fucked up relationship with her mother and none with her trans father. I read her book and that childhood was a shitshow. There was pride in the groundbreaking coverage style her parents broke, the OJ slow-mo chase, Rodney King, all from a helicopter. Dad piloted and reported, mom was camera person. They were in that mode long before any others. The then male identifying father was an addict and abuser, beating the crap out of the mother, violent with the kids, moving fom place to place, school to school. Yet there was the kinds of people and experiences she found enriching as well.

I saw her father, now Zoey Tur, on John Mulaney's Everyone is in LA show. He/she/they looked a mess, came across as a narcissistic attention hog. Someone you would get away from quickly at a gathering. Poor Katy, no wonder she is a mess and cant connect with people.

She strikes me as having been deeply unhappy most of her life, but she seems to have found some domestic peace with her husband and family. She relates very awkwardly on camera, tries hard to appear as or more knowledgeable than any guest. The woman has issues.

R327, That said, she now gets to have this in bed with her.

Trump put her in danger at one of his rallies in 2016 when he mocked her and pointed her out to the crowd. IIRC security had to come and escort her away from the crowd that started verbally abusing her just in case they escalated. That had to be kind of scary, and yet...

[QUOTE]she seems to have found some domestic peace with her husband and family

Maybe the reason she's the way she is on air is because she doesn't have domestic peace?

When she got escorted out of the Trump rally was when she was still bottom of the totem pole at MSNBC. She didn't have a show or anything, just a struggling reporter. She was assigned Trump because at the time everyone thought he was a joke and there was no way he could win the presidency. She was a scrappy fighter back then which led to her getting her own show. Not pro Trump back then. However, once she got married and turned into a soccer mom, like many straight white woman, they turn into Republican light. Maybe she's not but that's the way it appears when she is on TV now.

Sounds like she had a messed up childhood and with a parent transitioning so late in life, I am sure that sends a lot of mixed signals. Maybe not about sexuality, but about life paths in general. So maybe going from being the target of a Trump mob to the contrarian in his favor is not that big of a psychological shift in her mind.

I miss the old Katie.

I think Katy Tur is more of a moderate/independent. I don't think she is a Trumper. I get the impression she isn't crazy about Biden either. She's like most Americans. You DL Biden/Dem psychos are attacking this woman for childish reasons. She's a Trumper because she pointed out Jill Biden isn't Hunter's biological mother? That's just a fact. It doesn't mean she's belittling their relationship. Hunter is the one who actually called Jill an entitled cunt. Isn't he an entitled cunt? This is the same trash who moved in on his brother's widow and introduced her to crack. But you psychos attack Katy because she just shared a fact. Hunter is trash.

I’d have domestic peace if I had full access to Tony D’s cock every night.

Jonathan Martin from Politico is oddly attractive.

Goofy looking guy who sniffs cookies?

“Goofy looking guy who sniffs cookies?“

The same could be said about Jonathan Lemire.

Katy Tur was fine until she had that second kid and went nuts. That crazy haircut was a cry for help.

The fact that ANY woman is considering voting for ANY Republican is beyond belief.

So if Katy Tur is a moderate and doesn't like Biden, and isn't clear about for whom she should vote....she is - in my opinion - worthless and a foolish tool.

But I'm a man. I'd love to hear any sane women - not from the cult - explain exactly why they're considering trump. Or why they aren't alarmed by the fact that he is being normalized. Or why they are doing the normalizing, as Tur is.

Michael Steele wants Larry Hogan to win & it shows.

Give the lady a chance.

The Democrat should have said is if you want Larry to vote like a Democrat, then vote for the Democrat.

They should have been more specific about voters being pissed about the Supreme Court needing to get rid of Republicans in the Senate. If you hate this corrupt Supreme Court, then we need to replace as many Senate Republicans as possible.

And with women in Kansas and Ohio reversing conservative abortion initiatives, the time may be right.

Alicia Menendez wishing viewers a Happy Father’s Day this morning made me laugh out loud.

I think she handled it with grace and dignity and deflected it to her husband and their children's relationship to him. It was beautiful. And I hope you choke on the next cock, r340.

Melissa Murray strikes me as a better guest than host.

Melissa Murray is like what Andrew Wesiiman was a few lawsuits ago: a newsreader who simply gives the facts.

She has to be a guest to give an opinion.

Now Andrew has actually gone into: The Supreme Court is corrupt, Judge Cannon is corrupt territory.

R341, MARY!!!!!!

I love Symone but she has to stop interrupting her co-hosts and especially guests as much as she do.

R345, People born and raised in Nebraska do not speak in that affected honey child manner.

Simone reminds me of the pin head from "Freaks."

It was nice to see The Weekend fill in for Lemire this morning.

Mika brings up a good point that needs to be repeated. Trump ALWAYS backup and runs over the moderators until they give up and let him say whatever he wants. We have all seen this time and time again. They all need to grow a pair or let someone else who has the ball to do the job take control. He's not a god, he's not even the president now, shut him off and stop giving him special exceptions, it's not rocket science.

There will be a mute button.

Yeah, yeah yeah, the F-ing mute button. Well they had that all along but they never used it. They are afraid to press the damn button. If they dont use it from the moment it's the next guys turn to speak I am changing the channel. if they pretend that they will only use it if needed, I call BS on the agreed format. A deal is a deal, stick to the agreement. It's clear they want chaos and screaming matches for ratings.

The person muting needs to be off-stage not next to the moderators with a big red button.

If the pre-debate advertising featured promises of a rigorously enforced mute button policy, the majority of the country would watch like it was the Super Bowl.

The unbridled pleasure of seeing that beclowned orange dotard sputtering his incoherence and lies only to be muted by a CNN audio engineer as his makeup /KFC encrusted lips flap silently in the breeze. would be irresistible.

Hell, more than half the country would watch that on PPV

But of course this orange coward will turn yellow well in advance of the debate and not show up claiming it's somehow "rigged"

The mute button is completely irrelevant if Foghorn Trump is hollering non-sequiturs across the room like someone with Tourette's syndrome when it's Biden's turn to respond to a question.

What CNN should do is to have each candidate be in a sound-proof booth and wearing headphones so they can always hear what's going on but the audience (and other candidate) can't hear them saying a single syllable except for when their mike is turned on.

Trump will just wander over to Biden's space and start screaming beside him.

Trump will find an excuse to drop out.

I don't think Trump will drop out, I think he believes he'll wipe the floor with Biden.

Not watching it.

R358 - Yeah - why watch (if it takes place at all!) when it will be critiqued to death the following day. They will show all the outlandish things DUMP says as though we haven't heard enough about his verbal ineptitude already!

Fred Guttenberg, you're obviously in pain but a little of you goes a long way.

I was invited to a debate watching party, but I usually follow r359’s strategy. I’ve been promised pizza. It’s quite a dilemma.

r359, to see all the stuff Fox does not address.

Joy went Fuzzy Wuzzy tonight.

Where is Joy’s hair???

Joy Ann Reid does Kara Young!

No lie: I thought of this look for Joy while watching the Tony Awards last night. It's a gorgeous look for you, Joy; now, just calm the brows.

Joy got a buzz cut, looks good on her.

Does it though?

Joy was giving Grace Jones realness and I loved it.

R372, Joy's new hairdo is in no way reminiscent of Grace Jones's iconic high flat top.

Maddow time.

FYI: Rachel is scheduled to be on The View tomorrow.

R375, Will she kiss Whoopi’s ass like so many other guests are doing lately?

Rachel doesn’t kiss ass, that’s Katy Tur’s job.

MSNBC shows have no new Trump news, and God forbid they cover anything else, so they keep going back to the greatest hits. Boring.

[quote][R372], Joy's new hairdo is in no way reminiscent of Grace Jones's iconic high flat top.

It was more the essence of Grace with the nearly-bald 'do, make-up and bold earrings.

Fox News does even more of that r378, only it's a relentless rant about Biden and the Democrats.

We always knew Joy was follicularly challenged for ages, right? Those decorative wigs don't just appear when she felt "stressed." She's *constantly* stressed:

I always assumed this is her natural state. My only question is what took her so long to adopt her natural hair and state?

Maybe she's finally, just acknowledged her homophobic statements are part of her inherent self-hatred.

Nicolle and Joe Scarborough need to stop giving Eddie Glaude airtime.

Notice how Rev Al & Joy Reid never have him on their shows.

Because they know.

What did he say today?

The white hosts need to have a heart to heart with the black hosts and educate themselves on the Eddie Glaude fuckery.

What does he say that’s so objectionable?

I think the AI Trolls have Eddie in their sights.

He's a James Baldwin realist.

He ain't yo nigga.

Eddie Glaude is consistently dragged on Twitter for his low-key anti-Bidenism, which is the same BS he spouted back in 2016 with his “I can’t vote for Hillary” crap. It’s partly because of people like him that got Dump elected. He later put out a mea culpa for not being able to see the bigger picture concerning Trump vs Hillary, but as the old saying goes, it’s too little, too late.

[quote]What does he say that’s so objectionable?

It’s not a stupid question to ask what you are objecting to about a regular MSNBC guest. I’m sorry you are too lazy to explain your problem with him.

So your objection is that he was wrong to not support Hillary 8 years ago?

[quote]It’s not a stupid question to ask what you are objecting to about a regular MSNBC guest.

It is when the info is out there and it’s pretty well known that he was anti Hillary in 2016 and has been saying low-key anti Biden things of late. This entire subject matter was even discussed upthread. But you do you.

I’m sorry I’m not familiar with all 35,193 “upthread” posts in this thread and asked a question about something previously discussed. My bad.

Nicolle Wallace looks distorted on remote.

Tell her to get back in the studio.

Ramin Setoodeh, author of "Apprentice in Wonderland (How donald trump and Mark Burnett Took America Through The Looking Glass)," looks like a handsome Ryan Gosling.

The book is a must read, shining a light on the reality show donald exists in through a series of one-on-one interviews he granted Setoodeh post January 7.

R407 He was absolutely correct about The Apprentice making Trump a celebrity and therefore an attractive candidate to whom that is important. Your fault, NBC.

Even his enemies would admit that Donald Trump was a celebrity long before “The Apprentice”.

R407, He’s the same guy who wrote “The Ladies Who Punch”.

He was a faded celebrity at the launch of the Apprentice.

R411, That’s a ridiculous, absurd statement.

He never really recovered from his financial collapse in the 1990s. The show was originally going to have a different tycoon each season, but he was the only one who agreed to do it. Why do you think he did?

When Trump ran for president the first time and won, he always said shitty things about NBC. Never mind, he says shitty things about everything.

Eeeeek, the return of Abby Huntsman on Ari.

[quote][R407], He’s the same guy who wrote “The Ladies Who Punch”.

I wouldn't have known -- haven't watched "The View" in decades.

Abby Cuntsman goes full Mormon Nice about Biden.

Who next, Mooghan?

Ari is desperate to position his show as unique and indispensable.

Not succeeding.

R416, You don’t have to be a viewer in order to know he wrote that book.

I want to punch that Abbey broad in the mouth

R419, She’s got a hot husband.

Mormons are hot even if they are Log Cabin repellent.

I just scraped a certain ardently-MAGA troll off the bottom of my shoe, so reading here will be more pleasant henceforth. The ancient, treasonous creature has contaminated far too many DL threads with post after post after post. Enough!

Muriel, take back your forum.

Those old clips of Ari back in 2014 -- he's still handsome but good God was he gorgeous back then.

How can Huntsman be Mormon if she only has three kids?

Nicole mentioned this afternoon that the Supremes may announce as early as tomorrow, their decision on the orange turd’s claim of full presidential immunity. The chance of his remaining cases moving forward, are hinged on their decision. Holy shit, and God help us.

Alito and Thomas will be all for it but I don't think the others will go along.

Lawrence + Colin Allred = 🔥

Did Chtis Hayes try to persuade viewers to vote for Antisemite Jamaal Bowman, who Chrissy’s brother is a campaign manager:

“Big money does not serve voters. But it does serve megadonors” -@chrislhayes

MSNBC needs to give a statement on what Hayes did tonight:

“Chris's brother was Jamaal Bowman's campaign manager. Chris did not want Hillary or Biden to win either. Also, 90% of Bowman's cash came from outside the district. Over 50% of Latimer's are from inside the district. Facts. 😆”

Isn't AIPAC finding Bowman's oppo ads?

The Jews are crucifying a guy who is not 💯 Netanyahu.

I hope the black guy sticks it to them.

I love it when Lawrence reminds people how despicable Ted Cruz is.

Chrissyhunny got an ethics problem. The family ties are just the tip of the iceberg. Don’t forget about the wife’s connections, and his daily repetition of Hamas factoids without attribution. Then there’s the cover he attempted to give Tblob when she got censured. Very Fauxy. He’s as dirrrty as Hannity.

Chris Coughlin Hayes won’t be happy until Jabba the Trump is elected. I’ve always wondered if he’s a tranny since he has no Adam’s Apple. Those kids could be adopted, and his fat rolls could be disguising the boobage removal scars. Oh well, Bernie Bro needs to go. He’s a Jew hater.

[quote]I’ve always wondered if he’s a tranny

Not with that bulge he was sporting during that Rachel Maddow town hall special, he ain’t.

Trannies strap it on every day. There are even devices that allow them to use a stand up urinal in a public lavatory. My tranny (F2M) friend has one. I had no idea.

If Rachel had a little lesbionic son, it would be Chris Hayes.

Chris Hayes wishes he was Maddow’s son.

Eugene Daniels is dressed for a Hadassah luncheon. Azalea is your color, Eugene.

A Heritage Foundation hack is getting grilled by Alicia Menendez, Michael Steele, and Symone Sanders. Big on Project 2025. You can almost see his mask slip to reveal the evil.

Kevin Roberts, the Grand Dragon of the White Heritage Foundation, is on The Weekend and it is frightening.

The White Heritage Foundation has emerged as the Trump Reich Think Tank.

The analysis after the White Heritage Klan Dragon left is substantial. When Roberts said that Abortion is not healthcare, it is murder, her showed that he does not know that abortion services are given to women who no longer have a resident fetus. My mom miscarried in the 60s and afterward went in for a D&C to remove any residual tissues. Dilation and Curettage are abortive healthcare, very necessary to women's health.

Most of what this guy stated was wacko PROPAGANDA. Getting rid of the Department of Education is simply turning over the education of our children to Evangelical Christians, in violation of the 1st Amendment, who claim it is not a violation of the 1st Amendment and who have a Supreme Court that will come to the same absurd conclusion. Get ready for the mass conversion, America.

Also, deporting 11 million people would cost a shitload, reduce the tax base and consumer spending, and basically shut down the country. That he can say this with a straight face is chilling.

But I am LOVING The Weekend. It is a pity, it is a lead in to the tedious Velshi. He's selling his book in Canada this week, I hope he has a substitute. Even Coleman. Velshi needs to be moved to AFTER the Psaki/Phang hours.

LOVING Joy's new platinum buzz cut! Never thought she actually had that much hair. I hope she keeps this non-wig look for a long time.

r453, it is the anarchic, Bannon designed, chaos that is the White Heritage Foundation's 2025 plan goal.

Deconstruct the government, remove regulations, fuck with the 16th Amendment and boost the number of BILLIONAIRES TO THE STRATOSPHERE while the rest of us choke on the newly re-polluted air, drink the lead laden water and bake in the boiling extreme weather. It seems that poor white people will be able to pay their Air Conditioning bills, if they have Air Conditioners, in the future.

r455, are you a Diversion Troll. Keep up. I wonder if Susan Collins is concerned over the White Heritage Foundation's Project 2025?

Is Joy's new buzz cut not so new? Also, I've been avoiding this thread as much I now avoid watching MSNBC in recent weeks so forgive me if I brought up old news, please.

Unlike the last "debates.," Trump knows that he controls the media ( even the liberal ones which cannot go two minutes without mentioning his name). He also controls the courts, Congress, and business, so he knows that, even if he does badly, the propaganda machine is so ramped up to do his bidding, that he will triumph. On the other hand, Biden will be left to stand alone.

There are a handful of shows I am able to watch and they're spaced about six hours apart.

[R453], it is the anarchic, Bannon designed, chaos that is the White Heritage Foundation's 2025 plan goal.

The Weekend was brilliant. Velshi even showed a clip directly from the program that preceeds him.

But he will eventually get to the Palestinians and Charles Coleman is filling in for Katie Phang, so I'm going back to bed.

Lose the garish makeup and manicure, Simone. We need you. Please.

R465, She should consider breast reduction surgery.

She should consider Wegovy.

She should really consider pairing down those 6' talons she waves about which could put somebody's eye out! I wonder how she (or anyone) with 'nails' that long manages to wipe their Ass without puncturing her rectum in the process. Those Ghetto Nails gotta go!

The claw-nails are ridiculous

Kamala Harris was wise to drop her as “Chief Spokesperson”.

R470, Who dropped who? Didn’t Symone resign? She got a choice seat right behind Kamala at the White House Juneteenth celebration.

When Symone starts, WEGOVY, she will look like a golf ball on a watermelon for a while.

STFU Ayman, he now saves his anti-American Pro Hamas bullshit for later in the show.

Changing the channel, dumb fuck traitor.

So much for Ayman being a homophobe, as many of you here seem to believe. He just had that trans politician on and wished her Happy Pride. I do miss seeing his thighs when he’s at that little round table, though.

I like Ayman, he sounds like an actual progressive not a white washed one aiming for the middle. He's not kowtowing to the "don't say anything bad about Israel" fanatics who accuse you of being anti-Semitic if you disagree with their government.

You can still be a Hamas supporter and anti-Semite and wish someone Happy Pride.

Ayman has turned into Baghdad Bob for Palestine.

R483 - I suspect it was originally 3 layers since the center seems to be sagging a bit.

It looks like jelly in the middle?

Every time I see Claire I’m reminded that she lost to that insurrectionist wimp Josh Hawley.

Yeah, Claire is a big loser.

How could she allow herself to lose to him??

Because, R488, she was foolish enough to be from Missouri.

[QUOTE]I wonder if her reason for remote last week was health related?

Baby-related?

Nicolle’s son is probably off from school and she is working from home like she did last year.

Kinda being a privileged mom like Stephanie Rhule and Alex Wagner do too.

Picture-perfect makeup and hair tonight, Joy Ann Reid, and the solid color blouse is very hot-weather professional.

Cheers.

MSNBC to Unite More Than a Dozen Hosts for ‘Democracy 2024’ Live Event in Brooklyn:

Rachael made some really really good points about how big business is NOT really backing Trump like most of his conservative media would have you thing. Out of 100 top fortune 500 CEO NOT have endorsed Trump. He did NOT impress anyone at the last business summit, was almost contentious crowd. Elon and his backup dancers while vocal are only a small group of business bros doing purely transactional support.

Oh, well if Luke Russert is in charge, we know it will be good.

Can they really make any money off of live ticketed events? What’s next—a Claire McCaskell bake sale?

I would love to attend, especially if Ayman will be there sans a sport jacket.

R493, No one from Morning Joe?

They should have Alex Witt sing at the MSNBC live event.

Nicolle Wallace is not on the event image 🧐

Andrea Mitchell critiquing Biden’s age, stamina, and mental competency was a bizarre segment.

She also commented about Trump’s age and abilities in a much softer way.

I recall Mitchell voicing persistent, negative commentaries, years back, about Hillary Clinton’s fitness as part of her anti-Hillary,, Maureen Dowd style, shtick.

Andrea Mitchell is age 77 and certainly exhibits her own age progression in speech and manner. Pot calling kettle…..

Stephanie Ruhle looked a freshly fucked Jill St. John from her outdoor location in Aspen tonight, doing part of the show wearing a modified Snuggie! It was spectacular!

I think tmrw night, she and Neal Katyal need to do the “B” block in a hot tub, drinking champagne and eating S’mores…

Andrea Mitchell is only 77? How many years did she shave off that resume? She's married to Allen Greenspan, he's still alive at 98! She's kind of the last one who should be concerned about Biden's age.

Andrea Mitchell, Kay Tur (and Ari Melber to a much lesser extent) are the only MSNBC hosts who trend on Twitter on regular basis. I don't think the Muslim hosts (Velshi, Hasan, Mohyeldin) even come close in numbers and how often they appear on the trending lists.

^They probably trend because they’re always throwing shade at Biden and various Trump prosecutors and sometimes take it a little too easy on Trump, particularly that Tur.

Ari wants to be a Rap Star, that's his main excuse.

Ari wants to suck as much BBC on the DL as possible.

Heilemann thinks he's cute and funny. He's not. If he was auditioning for a slot, he failed.

Tone it down and get out of your own way, John. Get serious. Prove yourself.

^ Yeah, admirable for a straight guy.

I think he had a crush on Nicolle.

*has a crush.

R507 - Yeah - he likes to hear himself talk too. His meanderings are a bit flowery and he could certainly boil down his comments but he sounds so good to himself eh just keeps going! Another thing - he must have a room in his house with hundreds of pairs of eye glasses since he seems to wear a different pair each time he's on - A la' that worthless S.E. Cupp!

Andrea Mitchell’s botox plastic surgery makes her look like the Joker!

I don't mind Heilemann. I wonder if Katy Tur understands why so many viewers dislike her. The hosts who come out of politics or academia like Rachel have no problem denouncing Trump. They seem to fare better than the journalists, who are wedded to both-sidesing. There are a handful of superb journalists on MSNBC mostly at the border or war zones, but the bulk repeat conventional beltway wisdom or do set-ups at Red state diners.

Katy Tur is a narcissist so she has no idea people hate her.

Good heavens. I hope no one shows her this thread. Her ego would be crushed and she’d decompensate before our eyes.

I like Heilemann. If Trump had his personality, we would all be dead.

[quote]Ari wants to suck as much BBC on the DL as possible.

Well he moved to the Bronx, plenty of that there to choose from. Not an coincidence I am sure.

Ari moved to the Bronx?

I watch Heilemann for the designy background he always seems to be a part of.

I thought Ari lived in Brooklyn.

OOps, I stand corrected, Brooklyn.

There's a big difference between Brooklyn and The Bronx.

Joy looks fabulous. Her outfit matches her background.

Pod Save America is Faux-Progressives.

What’s your litmus test for “true” progressives?

Way too many to list here. Btw, that’s how we ended up with Jabba the Trump as POTUS in 2016.

Is Chris Hayes crying over Jamaal Bowman being a loser tonight?

So a “true progressive” must agree with you on “way too many issues to list.’ Must be lonely.

You don’t think your attitude may be part of the problem? “Anything less than purity might as well be MAGA” does not sound to me like a way to win friends and influence people. It sounds like a way to turn yourself into an angry joke.

The angry joke is you, Stalinist. You and the DSAs keep doing you, though Dr. Stein. After all, it worked out so well last time.

True colors.. .

Indeed…

I was confused when I question I addressed to one poster was answered by another and discovered that almost all of this thread is two posters who seem to display the same . . . let’s say “mindset.”

Boy, that Susan Page has had great plastic surgery.

Is Nicolle makeup free this afternoon?

Yes, she is and she looks odd.

Nicolle needs to get back in that fucking studio.

The Squad will never own up to their shortcomings or mistakes. It’s always someone else’s fault as to why they are losers.

The Squad needs to learn retail politics.

AOC getting a serious primary could take her out, Bowman style.

You'll have to wait another four years for that R539, she easily won her primary with 82% of the vote versus 18% for her opponent.

Ugh Eddie Glaude 😦

So many posts for two people!

Eddie Glaude knows he is a quack.

Groveling for a little airtime.

Saw Eddie Glaude was at the Aspen Ideas Festival 2024 appearing with George Conway on Stephanie Ruhle, wondering if he went there to listen to ideas or give his.

Their list of speakers includes Bill Maher, Jane Fonda, Neal Katyal, Richard Besser, James Carville, Kara Swisher, Jenna Bush Hagar and John Legend.

When I am watching Chris Hayes and he goes to a commercial and then he comes back and spends the next few minutes of his show talking about his podcast, which is just basically a long commercial for his podcast and then he goes to another set of commercials and I am asking myself

"Why is this happening?"

r544, you lost me at Bill ‘Crypt Keeper’ Maher.

R546 Sorry but I wasn't trying to get you.

All debate predictions all the time. Back to Midsommer Murders.

Seer you tomorrow r548.

Midsommer Murders

Oh bloody dear

In advance of Debate livestreaming, Part 59 established.

My partner is watching MM. I'm streaming the Bear. Can't bear the debates. Hope Biden acquits himself well.

That would be a foolish strategy. Biden’s weaknesses are inflation and immigration and crime. If Biden addresses those, which he will, Trump is going to look like an idiot if he goes on about Hunter.

Haven’t seen Stacey Abrams in some time. I’d like Biden’s chances in Georgia better if she was his Vice President.

I checked out Fox to see what they are saying. Himbo Jessy was saying that Trump is going to be measured and disarming. 🤣🤣🤣

I'm surprised Fox is being so gung ho and setting impossibly high expectations Trump can't possibly reach. Will the fans feel lied to after he short circuits?

Biden's weaknesses are Republican created crises .

Inflation under control, just like Biden and Pete dispatched the supply chain debacle the Pandemic created.

Immigration is going to be an issue with Republicans because Biden will not condone killing asylum seekers. Republicans preferred method of control as it means no future voters created, their big fear

And crime is down but it is Big Lied and wrapped in fear.

This debate will not change anyone's mind about either candidate.

Lawrence is right...

There is so much build up to this thing by all the media, going to be funny if the whole thing is a boring dud.

Bets on how long it will take Joy to go back to wigs and extensions.

Will Melania show or his other wife Ivanka?

It is too warm out for wig r561 it will have to cool off

Joy nailed it when she worriedly predicted that the limits on the debate, by forcing tRump to behave could actually make him appear saner and more reasonable. Except for the mountain of lies he spews he definitely is coming across as the stronger. In the first 7 minutes, anyway. I turned off the TV after that.

Ugh, we're really screwed.

John Heilemann’s grey chest hairs.

^^^^^^^^^^

Hard pass. Heilmann is anti-sexy.

MSNBC hosts talking among themselves during the debate: "Shit! Goddammit it, Joe! Get it together, you old, senile fool! We're so fucked!"

MSNBC hosts on camera after the debate: "Biden sounded presidential and firmly in command as he made a strong case for his re-election."

Uh, oh, Joy is concerned and we know she hates Trump as much as we do.

Yeah, Joy is not mincing words.

This is why MSNBC is not Fox. They are not denying reality, they are not lying.

Alex Wagner is a DISGRACE.

JOY REID is a DISGRACE!

thank goodness for LAWRENCE.

Joy just nailed it. Biden made great decisions, but Americans want a personality. Because politics is hard.

I posted R567 sarcastically before the debate had ended because I was sure the MSNBC hosts would find a way to spin the debate as a positive for Biden. But they're not. When even MSNBC is criticizing Biden's performance, you know it's not good.

Thank god for RACHEL.

Well, Joe wasn't at his physical best and this is the debate we are stuck with...like Tyne's GYPSY recording.

Gavin Newsome 2024!

You know you want it, Gav.

Jen Psaki isn't smiling. Shit, she was his press secretary so that concerns me.

Jen Psaki is fucking brilliant! I'm more invested now hearing her analysis than anyone else on MSNBC. And her insider knowledge of Bidenland is priceless.

Kamala has lost weight, you can see it on her face.

I need a drink after all this.

Reminder, we are set to move to part 59.

Meanwhile goofball RFK held his own debate in LA at the same time, with himself. No I am not joking.

“Yikes. Claire McCaskill is doing the opposite of what Gavin Newsom did, she really is not helping anything here.”

Claire lost to Josh Hawley.

Let that sink in.

Joe Scarborough better calm everyone down on MSNBC because that panel with Joy/Alex/Claire did not help anyone’s anxiety.

In increasingly Ruby red Missouri, R585. As if she had a chance. Let THAT marinate for a bit.

Brace for MJ impact:

Fri. guest list: Jonathan Lemire, John Heilemann, Mike Barnicle, Eugene Robinson, Rev. Al Sharpton, Donny Deutsch, Michael Beschloss, Claire McCaskill, Tim Miller, Joyce Vance, Gov. Josh Shapiro, Jen Psaki, Katty Kay, Doug Brinkley, Eddie Glaude Jr., Symone Sanders-Townsend, Andrew Ross Sorkin, Noman Ornstein

Oh God! Not that goddamn Eddie Glaude. We don’t need his hating pompous shit today.

[quote]Joe Scarborough better calm everyone down on MSNBC

Instead, he's adding fire to the flames.

Big time, R590.

Part 59 when needed

Plus, see you at the Trump sentencing on July 11th.

Here for the Mika + Joe bitch fight.

The question should be who would you leave to pet sit your dog. Your elderly benevolent, pet loving uncle who forgets words now and then or has to repeat himself or your other uncle who's been caught cheating on his wife with a porn star, found guilty of fraud, and lied about how why the food you prepared is in the trash, poop on the floor and dog wont come near him?

Who loves adulteresses who kill their dog.

Does someone need a dog killed?

“Turns out it is possible for the press and pundits to push a coordinated effort to get a presidential candidate to drop out of the race. Who knew, given the silence after the Republican nominee for president was convicted of 34 felony counts.”

SHAME on MSNBC.

Oh goodness Katy Tur is going to be awfully arrogant today.

How can you tell?
