Vladimir Putin

As President-elect Donald Trump celebrated being named Time magazine’s person of the year for 2024, MSNBC’s Joy Reid tried to throw cold water on the occasion by pointing out that not everyone who has won the award historically has done so because they made the world a better place. The ReidOut host claimed “we all know” which side Trump is on, and it is the one with “Adolf…

With much of the national media ghoulishly obsessing over fringe conspiracy theories about Hurricane Milton and Russia-related claims from Bob Woodward’s new book, Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann actually did his job Wednesday in pressing White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on claims in the Woodward book about Ukraine and President Biden reportedly regretful he made Merrick…

Retired Gen. H.R. McMaster is out with a new book detailing his time as former President Donald Trump’s national security advisor, and while the book is not by any means an ode to Trump, it is also not the typical anti-Trump book that MSNBC’s Morning Joe has become accustomed to. On Tuesday’s show, the assembled cast admitted after their interview with McMaster that this “surprised"…

A day after conservatives voiced outrage that an Algerian boxer, who previously failed a gender test, was allowed to fight in the women’s tournament at the Olympics, CNN Newsroom guest host Paula Reid and sports analyst Christine Brennan rushed to defend the boxer against “an avalanche of misinformation.” However, all the duo could do on Friday was point out some irrelevant facts,…

Morning Joe lashes out at Nikki Haley in reaction to her announcement that, despite having been very critical of Trump during her primary run, she will be voting for him. Joe Scarborough uses a vulgarity in his tirade, and Charlie Sykes slimes Haley as a "very, very, cheap date" for Trump.

In an unfortunate move for the country, CNN’s morning programming reshuffle has meant subjecting their tens of viewers to an hour of Fake News Jim Acosta (as opposed to stashing him for a few hours on weekends). In turn, we’re stuck with segments like one on Wednesday in which he convened rule of experts fan Tom Nichols and cockamamie professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat for what one could only describe…

Former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan, who is launching his own media company, traveled to CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip on Thursday to discuss the conflicting narratives behind the deaths of several Gazans who were gathered around an aid truck. While Hasan had no problems relying on Hamas-supplied statistics, he condemned the media for trusting the Israeli military while comparing it to…

This week, Vladimir Putin finally — allegedly — murdered his chief political rival and critic Alexei Navalny. Navalny’s death followed an attempt by Putin’s operatives in 2020 to kill him by poisoning; Navalny survived the attempt, worked with online specialists to unmask the actual agents responsible for the poisoning and then returned to Russia, where he was promptly arrested on trumped-up…

On Thursday's The Lead on CNN, in a segment titled "Biden Unfiltered," anchor Jake Tapper reported Biden telling a group of San Francisco donors that although Putin is a "crazy SOB," the real existential threat is climate change. He noted Biden, like Obama, gets "looser" around big donors off-camera, but he's skipping interviews and press conferences, which doesn't inspire confidence…

Macho MSNBC host Joe Scarborough continued to expose his troubling obsession with outward manifestations of masculinity. Macho Joe was back at it Tuesday during Tuesday's Morning Joe, twice referring to the Republican Speaker of the House as "little" Mike Johnson.

The social media platform, X, briefly suspended the account of Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, after she accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of her husband's death. The suspension, which lasted 45 minutes, was soon lifted with X citing an error by their defense mechanism against manipulation and spam. The platform has not clarified what triggered…

In the 2 pm hour of CNN News Central on Monday, their Democrat commentator Maria Cardona came unglued about how fiendishly Donald Trump supports Russian strongman Vladimir Putin. She said Putin could imagine Trump admires him over Navalny's death, that how do we know Trump didn't say, “You go, bro, I wish I could do that here!”

After outspoken Vladimir Putin critic Alexei Navalny was murdered on Friday, Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart joined PBS NewsHour to claim that former President Donald Trump “emboldened” Putin and clearly looks forward to a Trump win in November.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough puts on a goober accent to mock MAGA supporters who believe Donald Trump's claim that he told the leader of a large NATO country that if attacked by Russia, he would not defend it if they were delinquent in their payments, and to the contrary would tell "them," i.e. Putin, to do "whatever the hell they want."
