On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” MSNBC Senior Reporter Brandy Zadrozny said that there is left-wing extremist content online, “but not that much. It’s pretty hard. On the right, you can find it literally everywhere. It’s just overflowing.” But most of the shooters who came out of these spaces likely “aren’t huge fans of Donald Trump. They’re fans of nothing. They’re fans of extremism. They’re fans of burn it down.” Host Jacob Soboroff asked, “Do you see a common denominator, a common type of politics across or amongst all of these incidents, all of these shooters?” Zadrozny answered, “Yeah,...

Securing an outdoor event like the one where Kirk was assassinated is among the most difficult challenges in the field. Much has been made of the fact that only six uniformed officers and a few plainclothes officers were at the Utah Valley University event the day Charlie Kirk was fatally shot while speaking to a crowd on campus. But in truth, doubling or even tripling that number would not have made a difference. Ticket checks and metal detectors can screen attendees in the immediate area, but they cannot defend against a sniper on a rooftop 175 yards away. Preventing that...

America is currently sick. The young conservative organizer and media personality Charlie Kirk was just murdered in a political assassination by a 22-year-old ‘anti-fascist’ and trans advocate, Tyler Robinson. As planned, he eliminated the most astute and successful political activist in a generation. Indeed, Kirk may well have ensured that Donald Trump won the 2024 election by not just increasing his youth vote by 6 percent since 2020 but, more importantly, by margins in the swing states of 15-24 percent, ensuring Trump’s victory. No sooner was he killed than thousands on left-wing social media erupted in celebration—among them scores of...

Former MSNBC analyst Matthew Dowd tried to defend the controversial comments he made about Charlie Kirk this week and took a swipe at his former employer Friday for caving to a "mob." Dowd was dropped by the progressive network after suggesting the conservative activist's "hateful" rhetoric had prompted the shooting in Utah that ultimately claimed his life, but he insisted he didn't know Kirk was the victim at the time of his remarks. "At MSNBC I have made nearly 1,000 appearances, speaking on a diverse range of topics and always consistently condemned gun violence and political violence of any kind...

MSNBC's Matthew Dowd blamed Chalie Kirk for getting shot. But liberal Daily Kos laments MSNBC firing Dowd "he wasn't rude". It was recommended by 139! (I do not want to link to their forum, so here is an archived comment in this link: archive.is/ukzQo ) Also, that whining of "they are all afraid of being fired." it seems they forgot who initiated the cancel culture on trivial things . Now, this, Dowd case is dam# serious.

The following letter was sent to all Comcast NBCUniversal employees on Friday, September 12, 2025. Dear Comcast NBCUniversal Team, The tragic loss of Charlie Kirk, a 31-year-old father, husband, and advocate for open debate, whose faith was important to him, reminds us of the fragility of life and the urgent need for unity in our nation. Our hearts are heavy, as his passing leaves a grieving family and a country grappling with division. There is no place for violence or hate in our society. You may have seen that MSNBC recently ended its association with a contributor who made an...

In the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, there were surely many people who would have liked to speak with President Trump. So, it's notable, for better or worse, that the president apparently accepted Joe Scarborough's call. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough described some of their conversation, noting that the president called Kirk "a great man," and gave him credit, with his organizing and fundraising efforts, for making the difference in some of the swing states. Scarborough also commended MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler for having condemned the words of Matthew Dowd on Katy Tur's MSNBC show yesterday, in which...

Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Utah yesterday at just 31 years old. The conservative firebrand was gunned down during the kickoff of his “American Comeback Tour” at Utah Valley University, struck in the neck by a sniper’s bullet while engaging young Americans in his signature Q&A sessions. As we’ve reported previously, the liberal media’s reaction to the shooting was deplorable, with commentators taking to the airwaves with disgusting observations, such as comments from MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd, who effectively blamed Kirk for being shot. It was, of course, predictable that the mainstream media would trash him. Sadly, the print media...

Sky News host Rita Panahi has slammed MSNBC’s Joe Dowd for “depraved” comments he made after Charlie Kirk was assassinated.

MSNBC has parted ways with political analyst Matthew Dowd following his comments while covering the fatal shooting of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk at a college event in Utah. Initially, the network had offered a lengthy apology for his words after the killing but later Wednesday, Variety reported Dowd had been let go. The Daily Mail has reached out to MSNBC for comment. 'During our breaking news coverage of the shooting of Charlie Kirk, Matthew Dowd made comments that were inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable. We apologize for his statements, as has he. There is no place for violence in America, political...

MSNBC has sparked outrage for its 'disgusting' and 'shameful' on-air comments while covering the fatal shooting of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk at a college event in Utah. Kirk, who amassed a huge following for his fiery debates on university campuses, was assassinated in broad daylight mid-speech on Wednesday afternoon. Reporting on the situation in real time, host Katy Tur called Kirk 'divisive' and 'polarizing' while political analyst Matthew Dowd suggested that the gunshot could have been fired by one of Kirk's supporters. '[W]e don't know any of the full details of this yet,' Dowd said. 'We don't know if this...

Political strategist Matthew Dowd faced a grilling on social media after he speculated on MSNBC about the shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk during an event at an Utah college on Wednesday. SNIP “But following up with what was just said, he’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures, in this, who is constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech, or sort of aimed at certain groups,” Dowd said. “And I always go back to hateful thoughts, lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions, and I think that’s the environment that we’re...

BREAKING: MSNBC has fired political analyst Matthew Dowd for his comments after the shooting of Charlie Kirk

An MSNBC guest sickly speculated that the person who shot Charlie Kirk in the neck could have been one of his supporters firing a gun “in celebration.” “We don’t know if this was a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration,” MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd told anchor Katy Tur shortly after Kirk was shot at a Utah university Wednesday. “We have no idea,” Dowd told the lefty network. “We don’t know any of the full details of this.” SNIP Police later confirmed a single shooter is believed to be behind the assassination – not a trigger-happy conservative, as Dowd suggested...

Western Lensman @WesternLensman The despicable ghouls at MSNBC immediately attack Charlie Kirk in wake of shooting — Matthew Dowd blames Kirk's pushing “hate speech” as reason he was shot: "I always go back to hateful thoughts, lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions." “You can't stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and not expect awful actions to take place." Un freaking real.

White House Border Czar Tom Homan joined Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC today to discuss ICE actions in Boston, Massachusetts. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu and Governor Maura Healey have both vowed to fight the Trump administration over deportations, with Mayor Wu calling them "oppression" while Maura Healey attacked the National Guard, saying they "do nothing" for public safety. Mika tried to defend Healey and Wu over their sanctuary state/city policies, and Homan was having none of it. Homan also brought the receipts, telling the audience exactly who ICE rounded up in Boston. That includes a 33-year-old illegal immigrant from Guatemala, arrested...

On today's Morning Joe, MSNBC analyst and Washington Post columnist David Ignatius admitted that the people on the boat that the U.S. military fired on in the Caribbean "were associated with the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. I'm sure they're terrible people doing despicable crimes." And while he first said that they "appear to have been drug smugglers," he later flatly described them as "drug smugglers." Even so, Ignatius suggested that members of the military should consider disobeying the orders of President Trump, the Commander-in-Chief, to fire on such boats.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) said late Tuesday that President Trump “may be covering for some rich and powerful people,” as the lawmaker pushes for more transparency in the case of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “I think the best way to clear President Trump’s name is to release all the files,” Massie told MSNBC’s “All In” host Chris Hayes. “I actually don’t think he’s done anything criminal; I think he may be covering for some rich and powerful people that are friends of his. And in fact, some of those billionaires are running ads against me in Kentucky right now.”...

Good thing Jackie Alemany, co-host of MSNBC's The Weekend, wasn't being dramatic on Sunday. Otherwise, she might have said something like "The continued existence of all life on earth hangs in the balance!" Instead, the utterly undramatic Alemany merely said that if Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook was fired, "The stability of the global economy hangs in the balance." Alemany warned that global markets could enter a "red zone" if Cook's tenure went kaput.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

"... we’re willing to worship the lives of our children to appease the prophets of the gun industry" One MSNBC guest claimed on Saturday that calls for prayer after the tragic school shooting that unfolded just days earlier were “a form of idolatry” and “theological malpractice,” arguing that unless people were also willing to go after gun manufacturers, their prayers meant nothing. Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones, a Democrat, joined MSNBC host Ali Velshi to discuss the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, MN — and he blamed Republican lawmakers and guns for the tragic shooting.
