Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Chris Jansing Reports” that if President Donald Trump disobeyed a Supreme Court order, “extraordinary action will be necessary.” Jansing said, “The Supreme Court said the administration must facilitate the return of Kilmer Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador. That has not happened. Are we at the point, Senator, where you feel extraordinary action is warranted?” Schumer said, “Look, the case will be back to the Supreme Court, they sent it down to the lower court judge. But if the president disobeys a Supreme Court order, extraordinary action...

Trends favor cord-cutting and switching to streaming services, leading to customer losses. Comcast's Peacock service saw growth, but remains unprofitable after five years. Universal Studios' earnings dropped in part due to the California wildfire. It's the time of year when Q1 earnings reports are starting to trickle in, and much like Verizon's recent report that showcased significant subscriber losses, Comcast is also feeling the pinch, with a report detailing customer losses across paid TV and broadband (via Bloomberg). While it's not all bad news, Comcast’s Peacock service saw some growth, it's still not a profitable service after five years. Ouch....

MSNBC host Jen Psaki admitted Tuesday that her cable news network’s liberal-leaning audience only tunes in to watch coverage of President Trump that is “typically not going to be positive.” Viewers of the embattled network don’t expect to hear favorable news coverage or commentary about the commander-in-chief, Psaki, the onetime press secretary for President Joe Biden, revealed during an appearance on “The Grill Room” podcast. “There’s obviously a rooted value in the kind of … that MSNBC viewers expect of like we’re going to talk about the opposition, and we’re going to talk about what the opposing party is up...

“The Office” star Rainn Wilson slammed “left-leaning” media outlets for causing the public to lose trust in President Donald Trump and Elon Musk — while being cheerleaders for the Biden administration. Wilson, who played the ambitious Dwight Schrute on the hit show, voiced his complaints to MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle during an interview with her on his “Soul Boom” podcast Tuesday. He said left-wing outlets like MSNBC were in denial in their coverage of Biden’s faltering mental acuity and issues important to voters like inflation and illegal immigration — but are now overly negative in their coverage of Trump and...

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) said on Sunday he does not think the law would allow President Trump to send United States citizens convicted of violent crimes to Salvadoran prisons, despite the president’s suggestion that he might be open to that possibility. “No, ma’am. Nor should it be considered appropriate or moral,” Kennedy told NBC News’s Kristen Welker when asked on “Meet the Press” whether he thinks such a move would be legal. “We have our own laws,” he continued. “We have the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution. We shouldn’t send prisoners to foreign countries in my judgment.” Trump, in a...

If NewsBusters were to introduce a Scaremonger of the Month award, Symone Sanders would be the runaway winner for April. On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, which she co-hosts, ther former Kamala Harris press aide was commenting on the Abrego Garcia case: "Kilmar Abrego Garcia's specific case, the case of the gentleman who's a makeup artist out of California who was also sent to that prison . . . is so important.

On Friday’s broadcast of PBS’s “Washington Week,” New York Times Chief White House Correspondent and MSNBC Political Analyst Peter Baker stated that there have been instances of political violence from the left “But it does seem, at times, that Trump and his people seem to be more willing to use words like traitor and treasonous that might excite people to take action.” Baker stated, “On the physical violence part, and that has also been seen on both sides too, of course. President Trump was the target of two different assassination attempts last year. Just this last week, I think the...

On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The Last Word,” Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) said that Democrats have a good message, “The problem we’ve got, honestly, is that we have to depend upon the media to deliver it.” And “when you’ve got people saying we’re not going to fact-check, we’re not going to worry about whether or not you’re telling the truth and just let the reports go out there. That’s what’s killing us as Democrats, because we don’t have a stomach for just lying.” Clyburn stated, “I think the message that’s coming from the Democratic Party is a good message. The...

Left-wing commentator and Harvard Law professor emeritus Laurence Tribe claimed Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that President Donald Trump’s administration was causing “an impending police state.” Tribe said, “I been in school for 50 years studying the constitution, teaching about it. It doesn’t enforce itself. It takes human beings of character to take it seriously. And when for whatever combination of cultural and social reasons, the nation selects someone who clearly has no respect for the constitution, someone who is cruel, someone who is without moral principle this is what we see. We see a tinhorn dictator interacting with a wannabe...

On Monday’s broadcast of “MSNBC Prime,” host Symone Sanders commented on the arson attack against Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) by stating that while we don’t know the exact motives of the attacker, “The people that ratcheted the temperature up, the folks that should have been the loudest here” are in the Oval Office and after the attempted assassination of then-candidate Donald Trump “you had Democrats bending over backwards to say, we have to take the temperature down, we have to bring the temperature down, when they weren’t even the people that ratcheted the temperature up.” Sanders said, “[W]e don’t...

Tuesday, during an appearance on “Morning Joe,” long-time MSNBC personality Chris Matthews claimed President Donald Trump has a “weird love” for the enemies of the United States. Matthews said, “We are taking friends and turning them into enemies. We’re turning enemies and making them into friends. It is all 180 craziness in the world. We lash out at our best friends, our people who are becoming our best friends since the Vietnam war. And certainly, with Canada, nobody in America has any animus towards Canada. There is none in America, anywhere. No one has a problem with Canada. And so...

After Donald Trump’s victory in last year’s presidential election, .several MAGA influencers cheered the prospect of him trampling on women’s rights. And Republican lahttps://www.yahoo.com/news/house-gop-tramples-women-rights-225055817.htmlwmakers have acted on that ethos with startling speed.Democratic women sounded the alarm Thursday following the House’s passage of the so-called SAVE Act, which would require all states to obtain proof of citizenship from people registering to vote, as well as mandate that states have a program to remove undocumented immigrants from existing voter rolls and allow Americans to sue officials who don’t follow the proof-of-citizenship requirements. Voting rights activists have condemned the measure as a voter...

The same media schlub who waved around the “I told you so” foam finger when stocks whipsawed on April 7 over President Donald Trump’s tariffs is doing the backstroke now after the markets surged just a day later. “I spent three months after the election warning Republicans they needed to be careful. Three months. I've got -- we've got about ten minutes of clips we could play you,” boasted a snooty Scarborough during the April 7 edition of Morning Joe. Stocks were bouncing over and under the flat line Monday, with the Dow and S&P 500 eventually just being off...

Former President Barack Obama sought to distance himself from the Democratic Party after leaving it in shambles following his departure from the White House, according to a new book. The book, “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” published by William Morrow and Company, claims that Obama was never a Democratic Party loyalist. Instead, the authors allege, Obama curried favor from a group of “black professionals” for his campaigns, unlike former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and former President Joe Biden. Additionally, Obama’s creation of Organizing for Action — a...

During an interview with MSNBC host and NBC News Senior Business Analyst Stephanie Ruhle that took place on Wednesday, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) said that he supports the goal of the Trump administration’s investigations of campus antisemitism and threats to withhold funds and schools where Jewish students can’t go to class, get fair grades, or be treated fairly should be accountable, but “The way they’re going about it, like everything else, I think is chaotic and is reckless and is undermining people’s fundamental rights,” and people can say what they wish “within the bounds of the laws and the...

MSNBC contributor Claire McCaskill claimed Wednesday on “Morning Joe” that President Donald Trump was deporting people because he didn’t “like their opinion.” McCaskill said, “The underpinning for this whole thing is this idea that we’re at war with Venezuela, and therefore, these people need to be deported without due process, without the court’s involvement. Clearly, everybody in America wants violent criminals who are here illegally out of the country, end of discussion, full stop. So let’s do it according to our laws. It’s not that hard. It doesn’t have to take a lot of time.”
