MS NOW (formerly MSNBC)

Did MSNBC Legal Analyst Jill Wine-Banks somehow think it wouldn’t be controversial or a stain on her objectivity to fund presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s campaign? Federal Election Commission records show that Wine-Banks contributed the maximum FEC-allowed $2,800 to Biden’s campaign March 10. Her contribution to Biden makes any of her analysis of the Trump administration…

Has the pandemic caused the liberal media to lose whatever vestigial grip on reality it ever had? The question arises in light of a surreal conversation on today's Morning Joe between Mika Brzezinski and Eugene Robinson. The pair were discussing Robinson's latest Washington Post column, the gist of which is that Democrat campaign tactics are too nice, being based on "reason and fairness." 

In a Thursday afternoon that felt like a trip back to life before the coronavirus pandemic, CNN and MSNBC were not only apoplectic over the Department of Justice dropping its case against retired General Michael Flynn, but despondent over the “demoralizing,” “destructive,” “nuts,” and “terrifying” “injustice” that signaled “the collapse of the Justice Department” and “the rule of law.”

On Thursday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe eagerly touted the latest article from New York Times opinion writer at large Charlie Warzel, in which he warned that “America is Paying A Heavy Price for Freedom” amid the coronavirus pandemic. He compared those protesting against strict stay-at-home orders with gun rights supporters and accused them all of having “a very selfish, a very narrow definition of what…

On Morning Joe, while facetiously claiming not to be a "repeater," Joe Scarborough continues the shtick he's been doing for weeks of endlessly quoting and requoting President Trump's optimistic statements about the epidemic from back in January and February. Even Mika Brzezinski seems clearly to have tired of Joe's act. 

MSNBC commentator Anand Giridharadas attacked Americans’ obsession with freedom on Wednesday’s edition of Morning Joe, suggesting it blinded them to issues like the virus and “climate change.” Co-anchor Willie Geist asked: “What do we learn from this?” Giridharadas complained that “[t]here is a primordial American tradition going back to the founders of being freedom-obsessed — even though we’re…

From MSNBC host Joe Scarborough questioning the President’s fitness to lead to New York magazine’s Olivia Nuzzi’s troll bait of a question at a White House briefing the following are the Top 10 most outrageous takes from liberal journalists during the last two weeks of the coronavirus crisis: 

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski drool over, and quote  at great length, S.E. Cupp's column in the New York Daily News, the gist of which is that President Trump is mentally "very sick," and should be removed from office via the 25th Amendment if only that were politically possible. 

On Sunday's PoliticsNation, as MSNBC's Al Sharpton hosted a discussion of the push to reopen the economy and how doing so might effect minorities, MSNBC contributor Zerlina Maxwell theorized that those pushing to reopen want to do so because they learned that minorities are disproportionately impacted by the coronavirus.

On today's Morning Joe, Donny Deutsch called President Trump a "cornered animal" and warned he will do "really, really, really bizarre things." He claimed he was "boxed in" with no escape route. How many times have they said this kind of thing? "The walls are closing in!"

Journalists bristle when President Trump criticizes them as “fake news,” and they complain that such criticism erodes the public’s faith in the news media as an independent watchdog on the powerful. But Trump’s critiques wouldn’t have nearly as much impact if news organizations refrained from behaving as sloppy partisans, carelessly jumping on one false story after another if they think it will…

On Monday, MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell and NBC News presidential historian Michael Beschloss feared that President Trump conducting a virtual town hall with Fox News at the Lincoln Memorial Sunday night to discuss the coronavirus pandemic had somehow sullied the “hallowed ground” of the Washington D.C. monument.

On Saturday's PoliticsNation show, MSNBC host Al Sharpton devoted a segment to claiming that President Donald Trump has stoked up racism against Asian-Americans by accurately linking the COVID-19 virus to China. He also incorrectly claimed that President Trump had not spoken out against anti-Asian racism even though the President did so not only on Twitter but also in one of his televised press…

In a transparent ploy to shift the focus from a doddering Joe Biden now beset with a serious allegation of sexual assault, Joe Scarborough did his best today to suggest that President Trump was not mentally "well," should "get checked out, take a rest," and "let Mike Pence run things."
