Stephanie Ruhle

Last Thursday, MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle met up with actor Rainn Wilson of The Office fame on his Soul Bloom podcast to discuss, among other things, the lack of trust in the news media. According to Ruhle, history began when Donald Trump decided to enter politics because she argued that he and his allies have spent their time trying to discredit the media in their attempt to…

MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle marked the passing of Pope Francis on Monday’s The 11th Hour by welcoming historian Jon Meacham to “juxtapose” how “this anti-immigrant movement has risen up” during Francis’s pontificate.

On Thursday’s episode of The 11th Hour, MSNBC showed yet again the extent of their lack of self-awareness. Host Stephanie Ruhle used a discussion with author Ryan Holiday as an occasion to weaponize classical Stoic philosophy, and the memory of the second-century Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, for the purposes of the 21st-century left-wing media’s political hang-ups. 

MSNBC seems to have found their latest outlet for their Trump-bashing fixation in the far-fetched conspiracy theory that the president’s recent tariff impositions were all a setup for insider trading beneficial to him and his close associates. On Thursday’s episode of The 11th Hour, host Stephanie Ruhle fleshed out this idea on the spot, based on the flimsiest of evidence, and refused…

MSNBC continued their never-ending obsession with every little action of the Trump administration Tuesday, and, true to form, they weren’t squeamish about throwing around groundless accusations of foul play. On The 11th Hour that night, Stephanie Ruhle hosted a panel which discussed Trump’s recent termination of two Democratic members of the Federal Trade Commission, and the…

MSNBC doled out some characteristically fractured wisdom on Wednesday’s The 11th Hour. Marc Dunkelman of Brown University’s Watson Institute blamed progressives for bringing the second Trump administration on themselves, claiming they had tied their own hands by impeding government power through no other means than, ironically enough, exercising government power. A revisionist history…

During his Tuesday night address to a joint session of Congress, President Trump touted recently-released record-low February border crossing numbers, boasting: “All we really needed [to secure the border] was a new president.” Indeed, the Trump administration does appear to have almost completely eliminated illegal border crossings, solely through executive action and enforcing current…

MSNBC’s Monday edition of The 11th Hour could not hide their displeasure that Republicans were forcing them to talk about the competitive integrity of women’s sports. Host Stephanie Ruhle claimed that conservative concerns don’t “have any evidence,” and The New Yorker’s Susan Glasser claimed it was “very painful” to have to spend time discussing the issue.

MSNBC’s staggering lack of self-awareness was in rare form Thursday. That night on The 11th Hour, Marty Baron, former executive editor of The Washington Post, opined on the Post’s recent espousal of personal liberty and free market views. Baron was outraged that the paper had taken positions he happened to dislike, and called the move “undemocratic,” suggesting,…

On Wednesday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, Stephanie Ruhle interviewed the brothers Ben, Brett, and Jordy Meiselas, hosts of the MeidasTouch podcast. Ruhle took pains to present MeidasTouch as a non-partisan podcast put together by three ordinary brothers, but neglected to mention that the organization was actually a massive, left-wing super PAC, with a long history of…

MSNBC continued what has become little more than a daily repackaging of the same old vitriol against the new administration, and especially Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), on Tuesday’s episode of The 11th Hour. On a panel hosted by Stephanie Ruhle, former GOP Congressman David Jolly went off on a, by now, perfectly predictable tirade against what he…

On Tuesday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, Stephanie Ruhle officiated over yet another session of commiseration about the actions of the new administration, with the usual heavy emphasis on Elon Musk and DOGE. Joining her was Reed Galen, author of The Home Front on Substack, who –without evidence – accused the administration and Musk, with media complicity, of leaning on…

MSNBC may have taken their self-assured and self-righteous obliviousness to their own shortcomings to a whole new level of irony on Wednesday night’s episode of The 11th Hour, The show’s discussion panel railed against their perception of a trend of mass-misinformation by non-mainstream media sources, but seemed quite oblivious to very serious defamation charges pending against them…

On Tuesday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, a panel hosted by Stephanie Ruhle expressed their regret, dismay, and indignation at the implosion of public confidence in established, mainstream media outlets, such as their own. In typical fashion for them, they pinned all the blame on such favorite bogeymen as President Trump and Elon Musk, and showed no self-awareness of the…
