Both New York Magazine Editor-at-Large Kara Swisher and MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle clearly don’t understand the American principle of free speech. And neither appear to know who George Soros is. Following Twitter owner Elon Musk’s criticism of the leftist billionaire’s gambit to “erode the very fabric of civilization” on his social media platform, Ruhle went apoplectic in a May 16 interview with Fisher on MSNBC’s 11th Hour: “Why is Elon Musk permitted by shareholders, employees, his board to behave in a way that no other CEO in the world can act?” So-called tech journalist Swisher harrumphed that Musk is “steeped...

Gov. Kathy Hochul was called out about the state’s out-of-control crime surge on MSNBC — of all places — where an anchor on the ultra-liberal network even told her “we don’t feel safe.” “Here’s the problem. We don’t feel safe, you might be working closely with Mayor Adams, you may have spent a whole lot of money but I walk into my pharmacy and everything is on lockdown because of shoplifters,” said anchor Stephanie Ruhle during her interview with Hochul on her show “The 11th Hour” Friday. “I’m not going in the subway. people don’t feel safe in this town....

On her Wednesdy MSNBC program, The 11th Hour host Stephanie Ruhle welcomed the Lincoln Project’s Stuart Stevens and left-wing Prof. Jason Johnson to discuss the state of the nation which included the former accusing the GOP of being a “white extremist party” and the latter accusing the Supreme Court of being “absolutely illegitimate.” Stevens went first as he was asked by Ruhle, “why do Republicans need to sell a whole lot of crazy? You've spent your career working with, trying to elect major Republicans right? Mitt Romney, George W. Bush. Does the Republican Party no longer have a platform that’s...

Elon Musk fired back at MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle on Twitter after the anchor grilled the Tesla founder for posting about Hunter Biden. Musk posted a meme of a man with numerous cameras strapped across his helmet, with the caption "Hunter Biden every time he buys crack and hookers." The richest man in the world then added his own comment. "A+ for the cinematography," he wrote. Ruhle responded to the meme, suggesting that Musk was not putting his massive influence to best use. "Imagine the positive impact you could have on the world if you used the extraordinary amount of influence...

Authorizing the completion of the Keystone XL pipeline to lower fuel prices and give the United States more leverage against Russia would amount to "galloping after permanent solutions to immediate short term problems," Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said in an interview with MSNBC late Wednesday. Amid skyrocketing oil prices accompanying Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, Republican governors and lawmakers are urging President Biden to reverse his cancellation of Keystone on his first day in office and use some of the 9,000 untapped oil leases on public lands to counter dependence on Russian oil. MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle, the host of "The...

NBC Senior Business Correspondent Stephanie Ruhle is having a tough few days. She can no longer dismiss skyrocketing inflation as just a minor occurrence that Americans can afford. “KABOOM!” That’s the word Ruhle used to describe inflation spiking an eye-popping 7 percent year-over-year during the Jan. 12 edition of MSNBC’s Morning Joe. Ruhle stated that the increase was the “biggest yearly increase we have seen since the 1980s” and said, “This is not a good number.” After trying to spin the news by saying that “we have a very good economy,” she then took a detour back to reality: “High...

Remember when NBC News senior business correspondent Stephanie Ruhle tried to claim Americans could afford inflation and were just bellyaching? Well, her company’s sister network doesn’t appear to agree. Ruhle claimed during the Nov. 14 edition of NBC’s Sunday Today that “the dirty little secret here, Willie [Geist], while nobody likes to pay more, on average we have the money to do so.” That's easy for her to say, since her net worth currently sits at $6 million, according to Market Realist. Her condescending comments came just after the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that inflation hit a 30-year high...

MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle argued Americans have to put the high inflation rate and rising costs of food and other every day items "in perspective" on Sunday. The consumer price index rose 6.2% year over year in October, according to the Department of Labor, the largest annual gain since November 1990. And prices rose 0.9% month over month. But the soaring costs, Ruhle said on NBC, were expected after the worldwide pandemic, before telling anchor Willie Geist that Americans "on average" can actually afford the higher prices. "The dirty little secret here, Willie, while nobody likes to pay more, on average,...

Is a "retweet" by White House chief of staff Ron Klain partly responsible for President Joe Biden's COVID-19 vaccine mandate taking another loss in federal court? What happened? The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit again ruled against President Joe Biden's COVID-19 vaccine mandate Friday. According to the court, the mandate — which is enforced as an emergency temporary standard via the Occupational Safety and Health Administration — is "likely unconstitutional." The court explained: The Constitution vests a limited legislative power in Congress. For more than a century, Congress has routinely used this power to delegate policymaking specifics...

NBC News senior business correspondent and MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle said Sunday on “Today” that the “dirty little secret” about soaring inflation was, on average, people have the money to pay more for goods. Ruhle said, “Nobody knows exactly when they’re going down, but you have to put all this in perspective. This inflation is not in isolation, and the government predicted it was going to be a challenging recovery, recovery all tied to Covid. So it’s why you see things like that expanded child tax credit. You’ve got the families of over 60 million kids, on average, getting $430...

Things just keep getting worse for the liberal media in their efforts to insulate President Joe Biden and his party’s onerous $3.5 trillion budget bill from criticism. Americans are seeing right through the propaganda. A new poll of 1,076 likely voters found that a combined 71.5 percent were “Much less likely” (67.3%) or “Somewhat less likely" (4.2%) to support the gargantuan budget bill if they knew “it increases taxes and the national debt.” Things got worse for Biden when the poll was broken down by demographics. An astonishing 73.7 percent of Independents and 50.2 percent of Democrats — both majorities...

In a Thursday interview on MSNBC’s “Stephanie Ruhle Reports,” Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg discussed President Joe Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure plan. Host Stephanie Ruhle asked Buttigieg if he is “prepared” for Republicans to run against the tax hike being necessary to pay for the massive plan.

Integrity is apparently a myth with the journalists at NBC News. The network’s insufferable Business Correspondent Stephanie Ruhle was just exposed for filming promotional videos for a bank she covers. The Washington Post, which broke the story, wrote that Ruhle “doesn’t promote banks when she’s anchoring for the cable network. But on the Internet, it may be a different story.” In a September 22 clip produced and sponsored by JPMorgan Chase, Ruhle said: “‘Hey, this is Stephanie Ruhle, and I’m looking forward to my conversation with Chase, where we talk about life’s unpredictable moments and how important it is to...

Using biased banks to make the absurd claim that Wall Street is warming up to the idea of a “blue wave” in November is like using field mice to claim that the animal kingdom is warming up to the idea of a cheese festival. This is the strategy CNN and MSNBC used in an attempt to fool their viewers into thinking Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s left-wing extremist economic plans are in any way, shape or form good for the U.S. economy. CNN Newsroom and MSNBC Live With Stephanie Ruhle both pushed during their October 6 editions how Goldman Sachs...

MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle suggested earlier this week that former Vice President and likely Democratic nominee in the 2020 race Joe Biden form “a shadow government” to counter President Donald Trump’s daily briefing on the White House’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.“Do they (the Biden campaign) need to do it in a bigger way? What did you just call it ‘the President’s daily clown show’? That’s his press briefing? Should Joe Biden be counter programming that? Should he be creating his own shadow government, shadow cabinet, shadow SWAT team? And gearing up there at a podium every night saying here’s...

This is not an emergency virus bill. It is a Democratic election wish list, at a time hundreds are dying, thousands are losing their businesses, and millions are out of work in the United States. The weekend began with a bipartisan plan. People were hopeful. Outside of Washington, business owners told The Federalist they finally saw light in all the darkness. They thought they’d be able to hire their employees back again. These are employees who have families, mortgages, and lives, people who have never asked for public assistance in their lives and never thought they’d have to.The mood in...

VIDEO Watch Stephanie Ruhle of MSNBC desperately try to convince the viewers that Democrat Socialism is not really Socialism. The funniest part is that Bernie Sanders himself has proudly declared himself a no-modifier SOCIALIST. He even praised the Socialism as it exists in Cuba. Sanders' supporters are also upfront in their support of SOCIALISM to the extent of wanting to end Capitalism as you can see in this video.

NBC News continues to bury its credibility by promoting MSNBC liberal anchor Stephanie Ruhle to be their new senior business correspondent. Page Six reported NBC News’ decision to elevate Ruhle Jan. 2, stating that the notoriously anti-Trump journo “will appear across their flagship shows including ‘Today’ and ‘NBC Nightly News.’” This is the same anchor who got a Chris Matthews-like “thrill” up the leg for “astute,” and “very powerful” Sen. Kamala Harris’ (D-CA) role in President Donald Trump’s impeachment proceedings after she dropped out of the Democratic presidential primary late last year. Ruhle drooled: “This is going to be her...

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg officially entered the 2020 race Sunday, ending several weeks of will-he-or-won’t-he speculation about a late entry into the already-crowded Democratic primary. Bloomberg’s entry was preceded by news of a massive television ad buy — $31 million, according to Advertising Analytics, who told NBC News it was the single largest single week expenditure they’d ever tracked. A $30 million buy in the final weeks of the 2012 race for then-President Barack Obama held the previous record. The ad promotes Bloomberg's record as mayor and then promises "to rebuild the country and...

David Einhorn, manager of the $10 billion Greenlight Capital Inc., said he found a recent dinner conversation with former Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke scary. "I got to ask him all these questions that had been on my mind for a long time," Einhorn said in an interview today with Erik Schatzker and Stephanie Ruhle on Bloomberg Television, referring to a March 26 dinner with Bernanke. "It was sort of frightening because the answers were not better than I thought they would be." Einhorn, 45, has been critical of Bernanke's willingness to leave interest rates near zero for more...
