On Sunday, GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley declared that protecting the integrity of women’s sports is the women’s issue of our time. On Monday’s edition of The 11th Hour on MSNBC, host Stephanie Ruhle welcomed two men to proclaim that Haley “should be ashamed of herself” and that the real women’s issue of our time is abortion. Haley also declared that there was a connection between high suicide rates among teenage girls and the movement to allow males to compete against them. After some discussion on how the data does not support that thesis, the conversation moved to the issue...

Journalist and political analyst Chuck Todd is stepping down as moderator of NBC’s “Meet The Press,” the network announced on Sunday. Todd, who has held the position since 2014, will be replaced by reporter and anchor Kristen Welker, NBC News President of Editorial Rebecca Blumenstein and NBC News Senior Vice President of Politics Carrie Budoff Brown wrote to staff in a memo early Sunday.

Katie Phang for Komissar Of The Ministry Of Truth! On her MSNBC show on Sunday, Phang denounced Fox News for scheduling a town hall with Donald Trump. Whatever the liberal media might hate about Trump, he is currently the leading candidate—by far—for the Republican presidential nomination. Which makes what he has to say kinda, you know, newsworthy. Even more bizarrely, Phang was also furious at CNN for scheduling a town hall with . . . Mike Pence—the man who rejected Trump's demand that he refuse to certify the results of the 2020 election! Incredibly, beyond even that, it seems that...

Target announced earlier this week that the company was removing some LGBTQ-themed items from shelves and moving displays intended to honor Pride month to the back of the store in response to a public backlash from the right. But what happened at Target goes far beyond just some people calling for a boycott.

President Biden’s fibs aren’t as bad as those of Rep.-elect George Santos, as far as MSNBC host Chris Hayes is concerned. The left-wing anchor was accused of blatant political bias after he pushed back on the inevitable comparisons being drawn between Mr. Biden and Mr. Santos, the New York Republican who has admitted to lying repeatedly about his biography. “I think there’s a line between ‘normal’ [politician] bs-ing and conman serial lying, and he‘s [Santos] got infractions on either side of that line. I mean it would have been a pretty big deal if it turned out Joe Biden didn’t...

In a New York Times guest essay, MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes claimed that “in under a month” all of his “worst fears have been realized” in regard to how new Twitter owner Elon Musk has run his new social media platform. Hayes claimed that Musk “courted some of the worst trolls” on Twitter, has scared off advertisers and cut staff that handle the basic functions of the platforms. Hayes also expressed worry that under Musk, the platform may “break down and stop working altogether.”

On his Wednesday night show, MSNBC host Chris Hayes and his liberal guest trashed the backlash to children attending drag shows as "scary," "bizarre," "disgusting" and "violent." Journalist Parker Molloy told Hayes that conservatives and Republican politicians who oppose children at drag events view LGBTQ people "as a threat to be around children." On screen it read, "The far right threat: Right wing extremists ramp up LGBTQ hate." The pair complained about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signaling he would be open to signing a bill that would punish parents who took their children to drag shows. "You have multiple lawmakers...

MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes said on Tuesday’s “All In” that the “basis behind” Florida’s Parental Rights in Education, deemed “Don’t Say Gay’ by its opponents, was a “loathsome” age-old smear against members of the LGBTQ community, claiming they are trying to prime children for sexual abuse. Hayes said, “Vague allegations of grooming and age-old smears against members of LGBTQ community are trying to prime children for sexual abuse appears to be the case in Florida, and the basis behind the state’s so-called, ‘Don’t Say Gay Bill,’ which prohibits the discussion in class of sexual orientation or gender identity in classrooms...

MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes accused European countries such as Poland and Hungary of “racism” and “anti-Muslim bigotry” for welcoming those fleeing war from neighboring Ukraine, while alleging they opposed accepting Syrian migrants. In what he termed “an interesting contrast,” Hayes claimed during his opening monologue on Tuesday that “we find ourselves here again though with the situation quite different in certain respects.”

Chris Hayes called out Tucker Carlson during Wednesday's All In With Chris Hayes. Hayes pointed out that Carlson has been a vocal opponent to vaccine mandates, both in the private and public sectors, while also adhering to his own company’s policies. Carlson has bashed mandates as “tyrannical” and referred to President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate as “a form of sadomasochism,” which Hayes found ironic. “The Fox News vaccine requirement is stricter than the one proposed by President Joe Biden and described as ‘tyranny’ and ‘creeping communism,’” Hayes said. Over the past several months, Carlson and other Fox News personalities have...

"The purpose here is not for communicating information. It's to break the consensus of reality so that people can be manipulated and radicalized. It is incredibly dangerous. And it is working,” says @chrislhayes of right-wing media’s "propaganda" about the attack on democracy. Clip...

Democrats are bitterly clinging to a myth that if only someone else had been president, the pandemic would have passed over the United States as if by some divine mark of virtue. On Sunday, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes accused the president of perpetuating an “extended mass slaughter” of the American people in his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, claiming that 2020 has been “the deadliest year in American history.” Republican staffers “all worked together on a project that just let our people be led to the slaughter for months and months. Dying alone with no one around. Day after day,” he...

Late Night with Seth MeyersThere are way too many instances of Democrat/media hypocrisy on the issue of wearing masks and social distancing during the Wuhan virus pandemic to list here, so IÂ’ll just reference a few of them before we get started on Chris Hayes. There has been the repeated mask hypocrisy of CNN resident tough guy Chris Cuomo, starting all the way back in April and continuing up until at least August, if not later. There was House Speaker Nancy PelosiÂ’s maskless visit to a San Francisco hair salon on the same day she lectured President Trump and other...

MSNBC host Chris Hayes recently tweeted, “Liberals were right about George W Bush and they’re right about Donald Trump. The Republican Party is a political party incapable of governing the nation without ushering in death, devastation, and national humiliation. Just the facts.” Um… what? I admit that I’m confused. To what “death, devastation, and national humiliation” could Hayes be referring for which he blames President Trump, unless he means the COVID-19 pandemic? It almost has to be, doesn’t it? What else could he have meant? Surely Hayes couldn’t be suggesting that Trump should be held responsible for the fact that...

MSNBC host Chris Hayes isn’t sure Americans can trust the transcript of President Trump’s controversial call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, so he turned to Twitter to smear it in advance. Trump announced on Tuesday that he would release the full transcript of the call, in which they reportedly discussed an investigation involving 2020 Democratic hopeful Joe Biden's kin. But the liberal pundit pre-emptively raised doubts about the transcript's veracity, because of how the president “pressures and manipulates” his staff. “Given what we know about how Trump pressures and manipulates civil servants to toe his line, I'm not *quite* sure...

"welp ... thanks, MSNBC, for giving me this wonderful new reaction GIF."

"If it wasn't specifically in the Constitution... it would be unconstitutional." ...it's almost as if the Constitution dictates that is constitutional! Video commentary and discussion at link:

There was no media figure more humiliated and shamed by the actual facts about the supposed Trump-Russia conspiracy than MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. She was all-in on the Russian conspiracy, collusion, Manchurian candidate fantasy. All. In. Night after night she regaled her audience with her tinfoil hat conspiracy theories, and they lapped it up. Her ratings soared, she became a “big name,” and then it all went south when the Mueller report was released. Her breathless, studious assaults on logic and common sense flamed into ash. There was no collusion, no conspiracy, no Russian puppet in the White House. Her tinfoil...

We interrupt the media’s daily preening, wailing, and victim-playing to share with you this lovely interview on MSNBC where Steve Schmidt blamed Mark Levin and other Conservative media types for the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting. Watch:

What a major buzzkill it must be to find out your friends think everything you’ve been talking about for two years regarding President Donald Trump “won’t matter politically.” But that’s exactly what happened when MSNBC’s Chris Hayes asked his friends about all the Cohen-Manafort news yesterday. He’s “impervious,” Hayes’ friends said. “Nothing that happens matters”:Chris Hayes ‏ Verified account @chrislhayes Follow Follow @chrislhayes More Interesting takeaway from discussing yesterday's news with friends who are not news/politics junkies: a pervasive sense that nothing that happens matters to the Trump's fortunes, that he's impervious, and that all this stuff won't matter politically....
