On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm stated that the Biden administration wants to place 40% of the benefits in clean energy into communities that have “been hurt by the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy” and have suffered from pollution. Granholm said, “[T]he Biden administration wants to put 40% of the benefits of the investments in this clean energy economy, which you’re going to see in the jobs package next go-around, into communities that have suffered from environmental pollution and also been hurt by the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy — away...

MSNBC anchor Joy Reid on Wednesday’s broadcast of her show “The ReidOut,” gave her take on the legacy of late conservatives talker Rush Limbaugh. Reid said, “Rush Limbaugh died today at the age of 70 from the complications of lung cancer. And I would argue that he is among the three people in recent American history who had the most influence in building the modern Republican Party. None of whom are named Reagan or Bush. This is a party that was built by right-wing media, by Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch and Rush Limbaugh. They influenced the way Republicanism and...

Jack Posobiec Flag of United States @JackPosobiec Antifa militant John Earle Sullivan was paid $70,000 by CNN and NBC for his video of the shooting of Ashlii Babbitt per records 9:16 PM · Feb 16, 2021

"Burn this mother down," he encouraged his fellow rioters, and then talked a cop into letting them into the Capitol. Which is supposedly the greatest crime of the past two centuries. Worse than the Holocaust, really. He was a professional coaching raw amateurs about how to riot. He was an architect of "the terror" Jake Tapper and the slightly-less-partisan AOC say happened that day. And CNN, and MSNBC, paid him a lot of money for that terror. They are terror-financiers. Maybe some drone strikes are needed? By the way, Politico claims the political affiliation of this Black Lives Matter activist...

On Monday evening, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow spent an entire segment of her prime time show promulgating the need to replace Republicans with far-left Democrats. The partisan host invited Amanda Litman, a co-founder and executive director of the left-wing candidate recruitment operation, Run For Something, to discuss the importance of ousting any Trump-supporting GOP politicians in office. Maddow prefaced the segment by expressing her dismay and disgust over the fact that at least 57 Republican elected officials from across the country exercised their First Amendment right and attended President Trump’s rally on January 6. According to Maddow and her guest, those...

Tuesday, MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough addressed the comparisons of violent Black Lives Matter protests to last month’s riot at the U.S. Capitol by a group supporting former President Donald Trump. Scarborough said anybody making the argument that the examples are similar “have to be really stupid.” He argued that “taco stands” are vastly different than the “insurrection” at the Capitol.

MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell was ridiculed online on Wednesday after she tried calling Sen. Ted Cruz out on a literary reference, only to get it wrong herself. While speaking about the second impeachment trial of Donald Trump on America's Newsroom, Cruz referenced Shakespeare, saying 'It's reminiscent of Shakespeare [in] that it is full of sound and fury, and yet signifying nothing.' The line is from Macbeth, one of the most famous plays William Shakespeare ever wrote.

Gina Carano will not be returning to The Mandalorian. Carano has been fired by Lucasfilm / Disney and the Star Wars universe following more inflammatory comments on social media. She just could not top posting. Via The Hollywood Reporter:

MSNBC published an op-ed Tuesday comparing Adolf Hitler’s ability to speak and sway others at his 1924 trial (for an attempted coup) with former President Donald Trump speaking at his impeachment trial, claiming that “there are inherent risks in giving Trump a megaphone to spread his inanities now that he’s out of office and has been deplatformed from Twitter.” The essay, which MSNBC opinion columnist Hayes Brown published, titled “Trump probably won’t speak at his impeachment trial. That may be a good thing,” refers to an earlier op-ed published by the Washington Post last month in which Post foreign affairs...

Joe Scarborough has made himself the ass in assassination. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough was discussing the decisive 145-61 vote of the House Republican caucus to keep Liz Cheney in her leadership position, despite her vote to impeach President Trump and her very strong criticism of him regarding the events of January 6th. The squalid Scarborough thought it was funny to joke that Republicans only voted that way because Cheney might have had them killed if they voted against her. Said Scarborough: "They just didn't have the nerve. I mean, they saw what happened to Osama Bin Laden when you...

Who cares if Joe Biden was just joshing when he said he wanted to govern in a bipartisan way, and represent those who voted against him, too? At least he didn't curse out Mitt Romney and Susan Collins when he met with them and other Republican senators at the White House yesterday. Ain't Joe wonderful? Unlike that other guy whose name shall not be mentioned. That was the gist of the coverage on MSNBC and CNN this morning regarding the White House meeting yesterday between Biden and 10 Republican senators regarding the Covid relief package. KASIE HUNT [Morning Joe]: After...

On Saturday, MSNBC host Tiffany Cross broke all the usual rules about how anti-Trump Republicans are used. She invited former Trump aide Anthony Scaramucci on her show to ambush him. Cross began by showing a typical old clip of Scaramucci expressing his love for Donald Trump, which she claimed showed he has been "radicalized." She then proclaimed that she didn't want to "sanitize" him, suggesting that he is an "opportunist," who flipped from Trump supporter to Trump foe, and would turn again when the next opportunity arises. MSNBC never plays this game with its cast of turncoat McCain veterans like...

Aired 1/28/21 (How I wish the prankster had used Brokeback Mountain "I can't quit you"!!!!!)

Senator Mazie Hirono (D-HI) on Friday told MSNBC’s “Live” that it was “sad” the Republican Party embraced “white supremacists and conspiracy theorists.” On impeachment, Hirono said, “The conviction for inciting insurrection, that’s first and foremost on my mind. Let’s do that first. We have a bunch of Republicans who are not willing to hold this president accountable. We have a Republican Party embracing White supremacists and conspiracy theory believers. That’s the party. So first and foremost, we need to get on with the impeachment trial. unless the president comes one evidence that says he’s totally innocent of everything, which I...

And the left shrieks about the right inciting violence? On Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC show Thursday afternoon, MSNBC contributor and former FBI agent Clint Watts said: "If you took what President Trump said, and instead put it in Anwar Awlaki's mouth, we would be talking about a drone strike overseas."

A political analyst from MSNBC is calling on Democrats to proclaim that ALL Republicans are Terrorists and that they should refuse to negotiate, legislate or work with them. MSNBC political analyst Jason Johnson said Wednesday on “Deadline” that citing the example of QAnon supporter Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) that Democrats should declare all Republicans are “terrorists,” adding “you can’t negotiate, you can’t legislate and you can’t work with terrorists.”

MSNBC went full Nazi in a new ad, bizarrely linking conservatives Oliver North and G. Gordon Liddy to the Third Reich. The spot promoting host Lawrence O’Donnell began with text reading, “Straight to the heart of moral corruption.” Then, the liberal host lectured, “'We were just following orders' is a statement that is indelibly etched in our consciences as what we should never become. We are following orders is now and always has been the last line of defense for the indefensible here and around the world.” During his commentary, pictures of Iran-Contra figure North, as well as Watergate's Liddy...

On Tuesday's Morning Joe, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough in effect accused Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) of murder. In a Trump-pleasing move, Hawley objected to the certification of Biden's Electoral College victory, which was then smeared into Hawley crying for deadly "sedition." I mean, he's one of those little -- I mean, but, but, he goes to Stanford and Yale and he uses it for evil. He uses it to kill Capitol cops. He uses it to start seditions against the United States of America. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

I never expected that an MSNBC host would deliver outright admission that the media have a serious double standard and would attack Donald Trump for actions that Joe Biden just took to no approbation at all. Has someone spiked the coffee pot at the MSNBC's D.C. studios with sodium thiopental? Or is it that with Democrats in charge of all three elective organs of the federal government, it is deemed safe to let a little bit of truth out? We'll never know, but I am guessing we won't see any similar admissions anytime soon. ... MSNBC Live host Stephanie Ruhle...

Is it ethical for one network to try to scare off a competitor's sponsors? The question arises because MSNBC's Joe Scarborough sought today to scare off Fox News sponsors. At the beginning of today's Morning Joe, Scarborough, speaking of Fox News, said: "We’ll worry about our channel and let them worry about their channel." But Scarborough soon went back on his word. Just moments later, he actively tried to warn sponsors away from Fox News, saying: "Fox News had someone I know, a former leader of the Republican Party, saying that Democrats wanted—and I’m using his words here—Democrats wanted to,...
