February 8th, 2019 10:02 AM

February 7th, 2019 12:05 AM

NYT’s Gay Incensed Trump Would ‘Graphically’ Mention Abortion in SOTU
February 6th, 2019 6:08 PM

This newfound appreciation for incessant fact checking only seems to go one way-- a notion that was on full on full display during MSNBC's Morning Joe on Wednesday as the hosts reacted to…

February 5th, 2019 8:30 PM
You know it’s bad when Chris Matthews is your fact checker.

Reid was awkwardly forced to admit she made up the quote, saying, “That’s not his exact text.”
