Ex-MSNBC host Krystal Ball rips former network over Russian hoax: ‘Rachel Maddow, you’ve got some explaining to do’

Ex-MSNBC host Krystal Ball blasted her former network as “not journalism” and singled out "The Rachel Maddow Show" on Thursday for floating wild “Russian conspiracy theories” that blew up during former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's testimony.

Mueller's testimony before two House committees Wednesday was largely considered a “disaster” for Democrats and opponents of President Trump despite MSNBC pushing the collusion narrative. Ball -- who now hosts The Hill newspaper's “Rising” -- said on her show she did not mean anything personal when she asked, “Just how much damage has MSNBC, in particular, done to the left?”

The former MSNBC host said “nearly all” of her former colleagues got “swept up in the ratings bubble that was feverish, Russian conspiracy theories” and singled out some anchors she said took things overboard.

Would be helpful to include Comcast in these stories. After all, it’s Comcast that’s driving the agenda.

And if you don’t believe my relentless bitch about Comcast, just ask Trump — he recently bitched about it too ;)

“Krystal Ball’’?. Krystal Ball. Holy Smokes. No wonder this network can’t be taken seriously.

As several qualified lawyers and investigators have identified - that it was false Russian ops provided information in the dossier, which was knowingly and illegally acted upon, to justify layers of SS type activity from weaponized investigatory agencies, to carry out a coup, then it is also equally true, the mass media and their DNC front company, must be identified as the willing tools of a Russian derived effort to carry out a coup against an American president Putin and Russia wanted removed!

Whew. That pic was buried deep. Found it.

Now just please tell me that fat, old, blonde lady is her mom and not her g/f, cause I accidently visualized them "doing it".

If it's her g/f, I'm gonna sue you for mental anguish. That was definitely cruel and unusual.

Sorry bro. Sometimes I have to give the public a slap upside the head with reality instead of what the media sells them.

I have faith that you withstood the test.

Retching, perhaps. But surviving.

You know, like when one is flipping channels in the late 1990’s and came across “Felicity”.....
