MS NOW (formerly MSNBC)

When doing a "Friday Fact Check" segment, there are countless options for guests that could provide intelligent thoughts on the complex matters of the day. Given those controversies include what the Obama Administration official was up to during its final days in office, former deputy national security advisor and noted spinmeister Ben Rhodes would appear to be low on at that list, but that didn'…

On her Friday morning show, MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle kept up her network’s insistence that there was “nothing” to see regarding the controversy swirling around top Obama administration officials – including Joe Biden – urging the unmasking of Michael Flynn. Following days of her fellow liberal hosts pushing the same claim, Ruhle assured viewers the scandal was “completely made up” and a “…

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace continued covering for the Obama administration on her show Deadline: White House, Thursday afternoon by completely dismissing the unmasking Flynn scandal as a “made up fantasy” like the “tooth fairy.”  

Well, if Jeremy Bash says so, it's time to move along -- nothing to see here! On today's Morning Joe, the aforementioned Bash assured, with respect to the unmasking of Michael Flynn, that there is "absolutely nothing here." And why wouldn't we take whatever Bash says with respect to allegations of malfeasance by the Obama administration as the pure, unadulterated truth? After all, Bash is a…

When Brian Williams interviewed former CIA Director and current MSNBC analyst John Brennan on Thursday's Deadline: White House on the latest controversies surrounding Michael Flynn, the Obama Administration and their energetic unmasking, the viewer could be forgiven for thinking that Williams was Brennan's defense attorney. He read from a Brennan tweet denouncing Trump for having a "despot's…

In an effort to aid presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden in his struggle to campaign during the coronavirus crisis, MSNBC’s The Last Word hosted an hour-long interview/town hall special featuring the former Vice President and Stacey Abrams, who's been obsessive in her desire to be his running mate. Among the softball questions, slow-pitched to Biden was whether or not he would commit to not…

On Wednesday, MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell feared that President Trump’s criticism of China’s mishandling of coronavirus amounted to a “resurgence of xenophobia” and “anti-China scapegoating.” She even cast doubt on U.S. intelligence warning that the communist regime was looking to hack organizations conducting medical research on the pandemic.  

Republicans scored a big win on Tuesday night, but you wouldn’t know it from most of the media. Former Navy pilot Mike Garcia flipped a blue congressional seat in California, turning the Democratic district red for the first time in over 20 years. Yet, the network newscasts skipped it on Wednesday night and again on Thursday morning. 

Nary a day goes by that Morning Joe does not aver some variation on the notion that President Trump is not "well." But perhaps the time has come for Scarborough to take a hard look in the mirror. The corrosive effects of his unrelenting hatred of the president seem to be taking a toll on Scarborough's psyche. 

On Wednesday’s Situation Room, a cast of CNN charlatans engaged in shameless gaslighting viewers on the unmasking list in the Michael Flynn case, insisting that not only were “all of the rules….followed” and Flynn’s “name was protected” (not true), but the list’s declassification was “disgraceful,” “shameful,” and “100 percent politics.” Predictably, the panel never explained why individuals like…

On Wednesday, MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell welcomed Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and California Congressman Adam Schiff on her 12:00 p.m. ET hour show to defend Barack Obama from criticism. Both liberal lawmakers seized the chance to accuse Republicans of “conspiracy theories” regarding the Obama administration’s handling of the Russia investigation.

Poor Joe Scarborough!  On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough whined about Trump supporters ignoring President Trump's "lies," but criticizing him for his own mistakes, as when he falsely claimed that in early January, "everybody knew" the coronavirus would be a serious problem, and when he retweeted a doctored video falsely suggesting that Vice President Pence was carrying empty boxes of PPE as a…

On today's Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski called Donald Trump a "freaking nut." What prompted Mika to use a variation on the F-word to describe the President of the United States? That he had the audacity, via tweets, to defend himself and his administration.
