Al Sharpton

PBS’s four-part docuseries Fight the Power: How Hip-Hop Changed the World, marking the 50^th anniversary of the musical genre, was unapologetically leftist and political. Produced and hosted by rapper Chuck D., the series has featured musicians from Snoop Dogg to Jay Z to Eminem, with appearances by black professors, activists, and journalists, and….racial arsonist Al…

MSNBC's PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton must be really proud of himself for nicknaming Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis “Baby Trump” during a Wednesday protest, he traveled over to The Late Show on CBS on Thursday to tell host Stephen Colbert that DeSantis is “trying to use the race wedge” to become president and that his education policies are no different than birtherism.

MSNBC PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton joined Morning Joe on Thursday to recap his Wednesday vanity protest against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s education policies where he showed his usual lack of nuance and good faith, by comparing DeSantis to those who perpetuated slavery and segregation.

On Morning Joe, a white privilege virtue-signaling Joe Scarborough says that as a 29-year-old, middle-class white man, police wouldn't have beaten him like they beat Tyre Nichols, "because they knew that if they did, if they beat the hell out of a 29-year-old, middle-class white guy, that hell would rain down from above." Scarborough fails to mention that hell did immediately rain down on the…

Appearing as a guest on the latest episode of PBS's Firing Line, MSNBC host Al Sharpton let it be known that he has not backed down from his infamous claims from 1987 that a teenage black girl was raped by several NYPD cops, which was ultimately found to be a hoax by a grand jury.

On Morning Joe, Scarborough suggests that DeSantis is akin to Jeb in 2015: someone loved by the donor class, but who can't stand up to Trump. Scarborough predicts that DeSantis will decide not to run in '24, will finish his gubernatorial term with sky-high approval ratings, then run in 2026 when he doesn't have to worry about facing Trump.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough suggests conservatives have no right to criticize Pres. Biden's deal to trade a notorious arms merchant for Brittney Griner, given January 6, and Trump's dinner with Kanye West and Nick Fuentes, and his notion that parts of the Constitution could be terminated given the 2020 election. 

On Sunday’s Politics Nation, MSNBC host Al Sharpton asked outgoing House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn about how Kevin McCarthy is running for House Speaker and threatening to remove Ilhan Omar, Eric Swalwell, and Adam Schiff from House committees. 

On CNN This Morning, Don Lemon gets into a testy exchange with a former Trump aide who is Jewish on the subject of Trump's dinner with Nick Fuentes. Lemon repeatedly tries to shut his guest down when he tries to raise the issue of antisemitism on the part of Squad members like Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Ocasio Cortez. At one point the guest tells Lemon not to put words in his mouth. 

On Friday's Deadline: White House, MSNBC host Al Sharpton predicted Donald Trump is toast and he knows it, that he'll take an "exit ramp" and ultimately not run in 2024. Then, like most liberals this week, he suggested Gov. Ron DeSantis was worse. 

MSNBC's Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough and PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton teamed up on Wednesday to react to Stacey Abrams losing Georgia’s gubernatorial election for the second consecutive cycle by comparing her to Moses.

PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton joined his MSNBC colleague Alex Witt on her Saturday show to offer his thoughts on President Biden’s recent speech and his recent meeting with Biden. For Sharpton, the country is in the worst position it has been in since the Civil War because he falsely believes states are doing things like eliminating early voting.

Morning Joe is surprisingly skeptical of Biden's student loan forgiveness program. Much of the criticism aired focused on the unfairness of the plan, which helps people who have gone deep into college debt, while doing nothing for those who didn't go to college, or who saved to go to college or went to less expensive schools.

President of National Action Network and MSNBC PoliticsNation host Al Sharpton joined Chris Jansing Reports on Thursday to discuss abortion and religion. Sharpton didn’t understand how one could be a good Christian and be pro-life because, according to him, “the Bible is about choice.”
