And that's what Speaker Emerita Pelosi should have been doing with her little…

On the Saturday edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Symone Sanders tears into Nancy Pelosi. Mocking her vaunted vote-counting ability, Sanders asks, "where's her calculator now?" And she blasts Pelosi for pushing for an open primary. Sanders also rips the strategists who "fleeced" the Kamala campaign. She suggests they should be exiled, as Hillary's 2016 campaign manager Robby Mook was…

Shades of Joe Biden in 2012, telling a largely black audience that Mitt Romney's "gonna put y'all back in chains." On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Michael Steele teed up Rep. Ayanna Pressley, a member of The Squad, to suggest that Trump would take America back to the era of Jim Crow. Pressley upped the ante, saying: "We're on the precipice of going back again to Jim Crow—…

On Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Michael Steele says that "young brothers" in cities like Detroit, Atlanta, and Philly have become part of a "bro culture" in which they just want women to be "quiet and pregnant."

Just as it was when Hillary let "deplorables" slip in 2016, so it was with Michael Steele today, co-host of The Weekend on MSNBC.  After playing a clip of Trump suggesting that Kamala Harris might have been given the debate questions in advance, and had something in her ear transmitting instructions, Steele said: "I play that because, to the Vice President's point, this man is unserious. So,…

On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Symone Sanders Townsend made an explicit call for violence against Trump.

On MSNBC's The Weekend, MSNBC contributor Jason Johnson singles out Josh Shapiro for the most pointed criticism among all of Kamala Harris' leading VP possibilities.

The Weekend host Michael Steele filled in for Joy Reid on Thursday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The ReidOut, giving an obnoxious tribute to President Joe Biden.

Tuesday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The ReidOut was a doozy but, perhaps, really not that out of the ordinary for the show’s deranged host, Joy Reid.
