(snip) BROOKS: ".... Yes, I was in a call, a conference call, with a bunch of scholars and political observers yesterday, and we all said, how scared are you, from one to five? And we were pretty much at 4.5. Some people were at nine and 10. I have never been more pessimistic about where this country is than I am right now, I mean, in my whole life. We have had a bad few years with the social fabric fraying. We have had a president ripping us to top from the — ripping us apart from the top.... And...

President Donald Trump used the 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to deliver a powerful broadside against the great adversary of our time, communist China. His speech served as a timely reminder of one of the critical differences between himself and the cellar-dwelling Democrat establishment doyen-turned-Trojan Horse of the Left opposing him, former Vice President Joe Biden. The difference is this: President Trump, long a critic of the globalist establishment's China policy of integration and accommodation, has matched his word with deed as commander-in-chief, comprehensively confronting the People's Republic of China (PRC). Former Vice President Biden, long...

"New York Times" columnist Thomas Friedman said in an interview with CNN host Anderson Cooper on Thursday that if you are not frightened right now, you are not paying attention. "It's terrifying because the Republican Party has become basically a political brothel, that rents itself out by the night to ever will energize its base," Friedman told Cooper. "Whether it was Sarah Palin or the Tea Party, and now Trump. This is a party that went into its convention with no platform. No platform. Basically said whatever Trump wants, we want." (snip) FRIEDMAN: Backed by a party without spine, amplified...

MSNBC guest Cheryl Dorsey, a retired LAPD sergeant on Kentucky Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron: "Let me say this as a black woman. [Daniel Cameron] does not speak for black folks. He is skin folk, but he is not kinfolk, and so just like he thinks they can't speak for Kentucky because he's up there with a black face, he does not speak for all of us. ...."

Democratic nominee for vice president Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) campaigned in Detroit, Michigan on Tuesday at an event billed as "Shop Talk" with local black leadership outside Headliners Barbershop on the city's west side. Harris complained President Donald Trump is "literally trying to wipe out history" by getting rid of race-training seminars in the federal government and trying to stop teaching "the truth about racism" in America. "On behalf of the Wayne State Black Student Union, we want to know that given that America is built on racism, sexism, and other evils (from questioner, not from Harris), how will you...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said on Sunday’s broadcast of ABC’s “This Week,” that Democratic lawmakers have “arrows in our quiver,” when asked if impeachment was a possibility to stop a lame-duck Supreme Court nomination should President Donald Trump lose the White House in November and the vacancy following the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has not been filled.

RACHEL MADDOW, MSNBC HOST: I think a lot of the emotion around that in the country was in part that the Republicans and Mitch McConnell had done something that really did feel like it broke the system, that really did feel like just a small D, anti-democratic assault on the process. But it also felt like a feminist catastrophe and -- and you not becoming the first woman president, despite Justice Ginsburg's fervent belief that you would be. That was part of how she explained that she didn't retire during the Obama years. But also then for that Supreme...

President Donald Trump participated in a town hall event at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia anchored by ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on Tuesday entitled "The President and the People." "Why do you keep talking about Democrat states, Democrat states?" Stephanopoulos asked. "They are," Trump answered. "They're American states, American states," Stephanopoulos said to the president. "The Democrat-run states are the ones that are doing badly, George," Trump responded.

This week’s Liberal Media Scream features the essence of the new media. Once obsessed with the five “W's” and “H” — who, what, where, when, why, and how — much of the media's political coverage has turned into agenda-making and shaming. But up against some politicians, notably President Trump, some reporters fret it doesn’t work. (embed video not shown) On Sunday’s Meet The Press, moderator Chuck Todd said that Trump doesn’t “have shame” when the press call out his misstatements. On the show, guest Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of the Atlantic, rued how the media have not figured out how to...

The DNC War Room released this new ad highlighting President Trump's denial of the scientific consensus on climate change as wildfires engulf the West Coast. DNC War Room @DNCWarRoom NEW VIDEO: Trump is threatening Americans’ safety with his refusal to listen to science and take action. Climate change is not a distant threat — it’s here, and it’s deadly.

PBS NEWSHOUR .... (snip) BROOKS: First, the hubris to think, you could be the president and talk to Bob Woodward and not get hurt by it. Donald Trump walked right into this. Two, the extreme cynicism of not only bumbling around in February and March, because you didn't know how serious the pandemic was, but the confirmation that you did know, and you still thought you could talk it down, as if you can talk down a force of nature, and that this — you wouldn't end up getting caught. So, there's just a level of cynicism that's been revealed,...

Speaker Nancy Pelosi tells MSNBC host Joy Reid, (snip) "I've never been able to make sense of the president of the United States. I know there is a method to his madness and I use that word very specifically -- madness," Pelosi said Thursday. "His delay, his denial, his distortion caused deaths, caused deaths," she said. "Could we have saved all of these people? Maybe not. But we could have saved many. And there are scientific measures of how many we could have saved." "Let me use one word to describe everything we learned in the last 24 to 48...

On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” Biden Campaign National Press Secretary TJ Ducklo stated that Biden “has been clear that he was not against” the China travel ban implemented by President Donald Trump. Ducklo said, “Well, let’s get a few things straight, the vice president was not against the travel ban, first of all.” Later on, host Bret Baier asked, “Let me just clarify, you’re saying that Joe Biden was for closing down travel from China when the president did it?” Ducklo responded, “Joe Biden has been clear, and I can send you the fact-checks, if...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of Fox News Radio’s “Guy Benson Show,” Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) reacted to audio of President Donald Trump saying he played down the severity of coronavirus by stating that America “had some lead time on the virus, but that time didn’t translate into enough action.” And that the White House should have acted “like a team on a mission, trying to tackle a real problem, not trying to manage short-term media.” Sasse said, “COVID isn’t a political problem, and it isn’t a public relations problem. It’s a public health crisis, that has also created an economic crisis,...

... Kamala Harris strongly rebuked President Donald Trump for politicizing the issue of wearing a pandemic mask during an interview Sunday with CNN's Dana Bash. Harris, minutes earlier in the same interview, said she would be skeptical of a coronavirus vaccine distributed by the Trump administration but said a big part of the problem with pandemic response " is that we have a president of the United States who made this a partisan issue and made it a political issue." BASH: Would a Biden/Harris administration support a federal mask mandate? HARRIS: So it's about a national standard. Everyone should wear...

New data from Princeton University shows that riots associated with the Black Lives Matter movement took place in 48 out of the 50 largest cities in the United States. The study found: In more than 93% of all demonstrations connected to the movement, demonstrators have not engaged in violence or destructive activity. Peaceful protests are reported in over 2,400 distinct locations around the country. Violent demonstrations, meanwhile, have been limited to fewer than 220 locations ​— under 10% of the areas that experienced peaceful protests. Mainstream media seized on the data last week to argue that the “Trump narrative” of...

It is doomed by a strategy based on a progressive myth about Trump’s base.It’s tempting to attribute Joe Biden’s plummeting poll numbers in key battleground states to his dilatory denunciation of the riots that still ravage their Democrat-run cities. However, the campaign’s fatal flaw is more subtle than Biden’s tacit approval of mob violence. It is rooted in the classism that resulted in his nomination to be the Democratic standard bearer. Among the progressives who control the party it’s an article of faith that President Trump’s base consists of undereducated working-class whites. Thus, they reluctantly supported Biden’s nomination in the...

Republicans say President Trump’s decision to make Hispanic voters a priority is boosting his support with this critical bloc in public opinion polls and threatening Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s prospects in key battleground states. Trump received 28% of the Hispanic vote four years ago. But a fresh national poll from Quinnipiac University pegged the president’s support with this demographic at 36% — despite trailing Biden by 10 percentage points overall, progress reflected in other surveys conducted over the summer. In swing states that will determine the outcome of the presidential race, that level of Hispanic support could push Trump over...

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden at a campaign event in Wilmington, Delaware on Wednesday: "Let me be clear. If President Trump and his administration had done their jobs early on with this crisis, America’s schools would be open and they’d be open safely. ....

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday announced new restrictions on the freedom of movement for Chinese diplomats in the U.S., the latest salvo in deteriorating Sino-American relations as the Trump administration increases pressure on Beijing. Pompeo said the latest actions are a direct response to long-held restrictions on American diplomats working in China. “For years, the Chinese Communist Party has imposed significant barriers on American diplomats working inside the PRC [People’s Republic of China],” Pompeo said in a briefing with reporters. Under the new restrictions, senior Chinese diplomats will need approval from the State Department to visit American university...
