Jingle Bells Gets the Joy Reid Treatment: Now It's Racist, Because Why Not Ruin Christmas?



Look, if there's one thing we've learned over the years, it's that nothing says "holiday spirit" quite like a former cable news host dredging up century-and-a-half-old minstrel show trivia to declare war on a tune that's been jingling bells since before the Civil War. Enter Joy Reid, the ex-MSNBC personality who parted ways with "The ReidOut" earlier this year, timing that, let's be honest, feels like a gift to anyone tired of prime-time grievance theater. 

She's got 1.3 million Instagran followers hanging on her every biased repost, and this week, she decided to drop a Yuletide bombshell: "Jingle Bells" isn't just a sleigh ride classic; it's a covert Confederate dog whistle mocking Black folks.

The clip she shared, now going viral faster than fruitcake at a family gathering, features some guy decked out in a Santa hat and ugly Christmas sweater, eyeballing a plaque in Medford, Massachusetts, where James Lord Pierpont supposedly penned the ditty back in 1857. "This is where a racist Confederate soldier wrote ‘Jingle Bells’ to make fun of Black people," blares the on-screen caption, like a Black Friday sale sign for outrage. 

The video piles on: Pierpont was broke, so he whipped up the original "One Horse Open Sleigh" for minstrel gigs where white actors in blackface lampooned Black people fumbling through winter frolics. Oh, and get this—Pierpont later ditched his abolitionist kin up North to fight for the Stars and Bars, cranking out pro-slavery anthems on the side.

Reid, never one to let a good grievance go unamplified, slapped her own caption on it: "Lord have mercy." That's her way of saying, "See? Even Santa's got skeletons in the sleigh." The video name-drops a 2017 Cambridge University Press paper, "The Story I Must Tell: ‘Jingle Bells’ in the Minstrel Repertoire," where author Kyna Hamill observes, "The legacy of ‘Jingle Bells’ is, as we shall see, a prime example of a common misreading of much popular music from the nineteenth century." Hamill adds, "Its blackface and racist origins have been subtly and systematically removed from its history."

Fair enough; history's messy, and minstrelsy was a vile stain on 19th-century pop culture. But here's the kicker, and it's a big one: Hamill herself has been pushing back hard against this exact spin for years. Back in 2017, she told the Boston Herald flat-out, "I never said it was racist now," stressing that her work zeros in on the song's performance history and origins, not some grand verdict on Pierpont's authorial intent or a call to cancel carols. She's not out here auditioning for the Grinch; she's a theater historian unpacking how tunes like this got sanitized over time. Yet here we are, 2025, with Reid's repost breathing fresh life into the distortion, turning academic nuance into social media napalm, because everything in Joy's joyless mind is racist if you can think it so.

Over on Fox's "Outnumbered," panel treated Reid's share like the latest front in the endless culture skirmish. And the X-verse is lit up like a Christmas tree on fire, with people blasting out parodies ("Jingle bells, Joy Reid smells...") and eye-rolls about how this is peak "race-baiting rhetoric" from a woman who seems constitutionally incapable of spotting a silver lining without first hunting for the tarnish. Her allegiance bias in all her reporting over the years is obvious as she sees racism in every story.

At the end of the day, if we're cherry-picking 1850s sheet music to torch holiday playlists, what's next, banning "Rudolph" for bullying the differently nosed? 

Reid's got her lane, and it's paved with perpetual victimhood, but maybe, just maybe, we can let "Jingle Bells" jingle on without the scarlet letter. After all, the real horror show isn't American history, it's pretending every old lyric is a personal attack on the present. 

Dashing through the snow with a little less sanctimony? Now that would be music to anyone's ears.

BBC is sorry for 'misleading' editing of J6 Trump speech: apologizes vociferously


Oh, the humanity. Or should I say, the BBC-ity? 

The once-mighty British Broadcasting Corporation, that bastion of impartiality (stop laughing), has slunk into a full-throated apology to President Donald Trump after one of their dusty old documentaries got caught with its pants down in a blatant case of video voodoo. You know, the kind where they stitch together clips like a mad tailor on a bender to make the Orange Man look like he's auditioning for a sequel to The Purge.

It all stems from a 2024 Panorama special titled "Trump: A Second Chance?"  And let's face it, nothing says "second chance" like dredging up January 6th a week before the election to remind everyone why you hate the guy. Trump's legal eagles spotted the hack job and fired off a salvo, calling the clip "defamatory and false." It took Trump's actual words, calm as a sloth on tranquilizers, to then splice them together with "fight like hell" rhetoric to paint him as the pied piper of pitchforks. 

Classic media malfeasance, served with a side of crumpets.

In the reality of unedited glory, PresidentTrump said: "We’re going to walk down,  and I'll be there with you. … We're going to walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave Senators and Congressmen and women," before adding: "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

But in the BBC's funhouse mirror version it becomes: "We’re going to walk down to the Capitol, and I'll be there with you. And we fight. We fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell you're not gonna have a country anymore." They didn't just edit; they Frankensteined three clips, yanking one from nearly an hour later like it was all one seamless call to arms. Subtle as a sledgehammer.

Enter Michael Prescott, the ex-independent watchdog for the BBC's Editorial Guidelines and Standards Committee (EGSC), because nothing screams "trust us" like acronyms that sound like rejected Bond villains. He dropped a 19-page takedown, concluding that "in the worst-case scenario, it does appear to be an attempt to influence the election," though he charitably noted it's unlikely many Yanks tuned in before voting day. (Pro tip to Beeb: If you're meddling in American politics, at least make it binge-worthy.)

Trump, never one to suffer fools or fuzzy edits gladly, rattled the saber with a $1 billion lawsuit threat unless they yanked the doc and groveled. His attorney, Alejandro Brito, fired off the missive: a demand for a "full and fair retraction of the documentary and any other false, defamatory, disparaging, misleading, and inflammatory statements about President Trump," plus an apology, compensation, and a hard deadline of 5:00 p.m. EST on Friday, November 14th.

CNN, in a rare moment of not being the story, reported on it Monday. "Overwhelming financial and reputational harm," the lawyers warned, because nothing says "libel" like turning a taxpayer-funded outfit into Trump's personal piñata.

The fallout? Two BBC bigwigs, Director-General Tim Davie and Head of News Deborah Turness, bailed on Sunday, presumably to polish their résumés for openings at MSNBC. 

The BBC's mea culpa dropped Thursday: "The BBC acknowledged that their edit unintentionally created the impression that we were showing a single continuous section of the speech, rather than excerpts from different points in the speech, and that this gave the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action."

Not an accident.

And get this: BBC chair Samir Shah penned a personal "sorry-not-sorry" to the White House on Sunday, vowing no rebroadcasts. A spokesperson added the fine print: "While the BBC sincerely regrets the manner in which the video clip was edited, we strongly disagree there is a basis for a defamation claim."

Balderdash, BBC. It was obviously intentional--you don't edit by cutting out the middle and make it sounds like Trump was calling for a civil war.

What the BBC was saying was: "We goofed, but sue us and we'll see you in court, cheerio!" Even the Brits are in a tizzy. Labor MP Lisa Nandy defended the Beeb in Parliament, cooing: "It is by far the most widely used and trusted source of news in the United Kingdom. At a time when the lines are being dangerously blurred between fact and opinion, news and polemic, the BBC stands apart." (Said the woman from the party that thinks "trust" is a four-letter word.)

Meanwhile, furious callers jammed a BBC radio show, one bellowing: "If we have to pay a penny to Trump, then I'm sorry, I'm not going to pay my TV license. The world just seems to be frightened of him. I think the BBC needs to stand up to him."

Frightened? Sweet-cheeks, the BBC just learned what happens when you poke the Trump bear with a rusty editing bayonet. In the end, this is peak establishment panic: a global media giant reduced to whimpering apologies because they couldn't resist one last swing at the man who refuses to stay down. 

Trump needs to see this one out to the end and sue.

Pelosi Channels Her Inner Godzilla: Trump Is 'the Worst Thing on the Face of the Earth'


If you thought Nancy Pelosi's [aka Frenetic Hands] eyelid flutter was the most mesmerizing thing about her, think again. The former Speaker, who's apparently auditioning for a role in a dystopian sci-fi flick where she plays the unhinged oracle of the resistance, dropped a bombshell on Monday that has conservatives reaching for the smelling salts, or, more likely, the popcorn.

In an interview with Elex Michaelson on the Communist News Network (CNN), Pelosi didn't hold back on her eternal flame for Donald Trump. "He’s just a vile creature, the worst thing on the face of the earth," she declared, as if she'd just discovered the secret ingredient in her next batch of insider-trading stock tips was pure, unadulterated bile.

Michaelson, to his credit, pressed the point: "You think he's the worst thing on the Face of the Earth?"

"I do, yeah, I do," Pelosi confirmed, possibly hoping some lunatic who watches this network will take her words and save America.

When asked to elaborate on this earth-shattering judgment, because, you know, curiosity killed the cat but apparently not the cable news segment, Frenetic Hands unleashed a litany of grievances that read like a rejected script from a bad Law & Order spinoff. "Because he’s the President of the United States and he does not honor the Constitution of the United States. In fact, he’s turned the Supreme Court into a rogue court. He's abolished the House of Representatives, he's chilled the press, he’s scared people who are in the country legally."

Abolished the House of Representatives? Now there's a claim that's easily examined.


 Last I checked, Nancy, you're the one who spent years turning it into your personal fiefdom, complete with gavels and grudge-holding galore. But hey, in the parallel universe where Democrats still control the narrative, Trump's apparently the guy who hid the keys to the filibuster.

The clip hit social media like a lead balloon, or more accurately, like one of those Pelosi wine coolers that explodes under pressure, and conservatives didn't waste a nanosecond piling on. The backlash was swift, savage, and about as subtle as a sledgehammer to a piñata.

"More dehumanizing Democrat language about Republicans," tweeted NRCC National War Room director Ben Petersen, nailing the point that if this were flipped, MSNBC would be holding emergency town halls on "toxic masculinity" by now.

Piers Morgan, never one to mince words (or his British disdain), chimed in with the perfect eye-roll: "FFS… this is so absurd," he posted on X. "Worse than Hamas terrorists? Iranian mullahs? Putin? Jong-Un? Democrat dinosaurs like Pelosi don’t know anything but over-demonising Trump. It’s why they’re polling so badly."

Fox News contributor and former Trump operative Steve Cortes went full scorched-earth: "There cannot be a ‘compromise’ with hateful Leftist charlatans," he declared on X. "It’s an unbridgeable gap. We just have to win. Let’s do it!"

And conservative communicator Steve Guest posted on X: "I see Nancy Pelosi has ZERO interest in toning down the rhetoric," he observed, because apparently, self-awareness is the one constitutional right Pelosi skipped class on.

Even a Trump White House account couldn't resist the low-hanging fruit: "Very sad to see what little was left of her addled, demented mind evaporate as she becomes fully engulfed in hatred," it posted on X. "Sick!"

Tell us how you really feel WH.


Look, we've heard this tune before: the endless drumbeat of demonization from the blue-check brigade that's somehow shocked, shocked, when it inspires the occasional unhinged soul with a manifesto and a bad haircut. But at this stage, it's less rhetoric and more relic, a greatest-hits album of grievances spinning on a scratched vinyl played on a worn-out Victrola.

When Fox News Digital reached out for comment, Pelosi's office fired back with all the grace of a Twitter troll: a screenshot of a Newsweek headline screaming, "Trump Launches Attack on Nancy Pelosi: Disgusting Degenerate." Classy as ever, Nancy. Nothing says "unifier" like screenshot warfare. Oh, and timing being everything, this outburst drops just as whispers swirl about Pelosi's sunset tour. NBC News reported Monday that Pelosi is poised to "make an announcement" post-Election Day about her political future, with insiders betting she'll hang up her gavel for good at term's end. A graceful exit or is it just the universe's way of saying, "Thanks for playing, try the retirement community"?


But don't hold your breath for introspection. When Fox News Digital queried the retirement buzz, spokesperson Ian Krager swatted it away like a fly at a Botox convention: "Speaker Pelosi is fully focused on her mission to win the Yes on 50 special election in California on Tuesday," he insisted. "She urges all Californians to join in that mission on the path to taking back the House for the Democrats." [And the socialists.]

For the uninitiated, "Yes on 50" is the Democrats' latest Hail Mary: a ballot measure to let California's legislature bench the nonpartisan redistricting commission and gerrymander a new congressional map friendlier to the Left ahead of 2026. Because nothing screams "democracy" like overriding the voters to stack the deck.

Pelosi's legacy is a masterclass in power plays, partisan pyrotechnics, and now, apparently, planetary-scale pettiness. As Trump might say, it's going to be a wild ride—but for once, maybe the dinosaurs are finally headed for the tar pits.

Maxine Waters’ 25th Amendment Tantrum Against Trump – Mirror, Anyone?

"Maxine, look! A dead bird."

Oh, look who's back at it. Rep. Maxine Waters, or as we affectionately call her, "Mad Max," and she's doing what she does best: spewing incoherent, unhinged nonsense that makes you question the voting habits of California's 43rd District. 

Seriously, how does this woman keep getting re-elected? It's like her constituents are immune to embarrassment, or common sense. She's not just a walking disaster for her district; she's a one-woman cringe factory for California and the entire country.

Mad Max is out here demanding 25th Amendment proceedings against President Trump because of his mental state. No joke. The irony is so thick you could cut it with a chainsaw and serve it as a galactic-sized cake from the Virgo Supercluster. Here’'s what she blabbered on MSNBC's "The Weeknight" (because where else would this lunacy get airtime?):
"It is time to call for Article [Amendment] 25 of the Constitution of the United States of America to determine his unfitness, to determine that something's wrong with this president. And I would suggest that we move very aggressively to talk about the danger to this country and to our democracy and not play around with this, because this is absolutely one of the most destructive things that this president could do."
This was all about Trump booting Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, who he says misrepresented mortgage information. Waters, in full meltdown mode, claimed this move will "upend the entire economy" and wreak havoc on Wall Street, interest rates, and even Trump's personal bank account.

Imagine how fragile a country would have to be that one incompetent person could upend and entire economy. Waters is obviously not the brightest person on the Hill.
"This stands to basically upend the entire economy. This stands to really deal with what is going to happen on Wall Street, what's going to happen with interest rates, what’s going to happen with the president of the United States being able to make decisions that he will personally benefit from. And so the world, and certainly the United States, should be watching this very closely. As far as I'm concerned, we have to move very aggressively. It is not about lingering and trying to think that maybe the courts will help us."
Newsflash, Maxine: The economy isn't going to implode because of one Fed governor getting the boot. But let's not pretend you understand how markets work, except maybe the part where you've somehow grifted your way to a million-dollar net worth. (Pocket change compared to some of your Dem pals, but still, nice hustle.)

The 25th Amendment? Are you serious?

Say what you want about Trump. He's brash, he's unpredictable, and he isn't going to be sipping tea with the Mitt Romney crowd. But mentally unfit? 

Trump is sharper than the tack you're clearly missing, Auntie Maxine. 

Her real beef isn't Trump's brain; it's that he keeps winning and has been proven right about nearly everything. And she hates it. Every time she shoves her face and raccoon hairpiece in front of a camera, it's the same tired song: Trump bad, democracy doomed, blah blah blah.

The truth is, nobody outside her district has taken Maxine Waters seriously since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Trump is probably not losing sleep over her latest MSNBC [soon to be MSNOW] meltdown. But maybe, just maybe, Mad Max should take a long, hard look in the mirror before she starts throwing "unfit" accusations around. 

She's as unfit as OJ's black gloves.

MSNBC is getting a divorce and it's fantastic



Ladies and gentlemen, brace yourselves for a seismic shakeup in the media world. The liberal bastion known as MSNBC is getting a dramatic rebrand, soon to be dubbed "MS NOW"-- that's "My Source News Opinion World," if you're keeping score. This bombshell dropped on Monday’s "Morning Joe," and let me tell you, it's more than just a name change. It's a corporate divorce that's been brewing for years, and' about to get messy.

For decades, NBC and MSNBC have been joined at the hip, like a power couple in the news game. But Comcast, the parent company, is pulling the plug on this marriage, splitting its NBCUniversal empire. Comcast announced last year it's spinning off its cable networks into a new entity called Versant. That's right, MSNBC, CNBC, USA Network, Oxygen, E!, SYFY, and the Golf Channel are all packing their bags and moving out, while NBCUniversal holds onto NBC News, NBC News Now, Telemundo, and Bravo. It's a high-stakes custody battle over brands, talent, and real estate, and the fallout is already raising eyebrows.

Let's talk about the split. MSNBC’'s Rachel 'Mad Cow' Maddow and NBC's Savannah Guthrie are no longer playing for the same team. Once the divorce is finalized by the end of 2025, these two won't even be colleagues under the NBCUniversal umbrella. And the iconic Peacock is getting a makeover at MSNBC, replaced by a new logo: a striped flag in red, white, and blue, but not an American flag because they really don't like America all that much. Goodbye, fashionable fowl; hello, patriotic flair. Meanwhile, CNBC, ever the steady one, keeps its "Consumer News and Business Channel" name intact. No drama there.

Now, let's get to the real estate drama. 

Rockefeller Center, 30 Rock, has been the beating heart of NBC since forever, and MSNBC called it home since its launch in 1996. But in this divorce, NBC gets to keep the house. MSNBC is being evicted, forced to set up shop temporarily on 43rd Street while they hunt for a permanent new home. They're also vacating NBC's D.C. bureau near the Capitol and striking out on their own. 

Talk about a fresh start, or more accurately, a forced one.

NBC and MSNBC have long shared their so called stars, with hosts and correspondents bouncing between the two like it's no big deal. But now, lines are being drawn. NBC is holding onto Steve Kornacki, their data wizard who has been a staple of MSNBC's election nights. Andrea Mitchell, after wrapping her long-running MSNBC show "Andrea Mitchell Reports" in February, is staying with NBC as their chief Washington and foreign affairs correspondent. José Díaz-Balart is out at MSNBC but keeping his gigs anchoring "NBC Nightly News Saturday" and Noticias Telemundo.

Meanwhile, MS NOW (or as Greg Gutfeld referred to them as: "Miserable Sh*t No One Watches") is building its roster, snagging some heavy hitters from NBC. Justice reporters Ken Dilanian and Ryan Reilly, national correspondent Jacob Soboroff, White House correspondent Vaughn Hillyard, and internet reporter Brandy Zadrozny are all jumping ship to MS NOW. MSNBC's current lineup, including Stephanie Ruhle, who's juggled roles as NBC's senior business analyst and host of "The 11th Hour," will stay put through the rebrand. And in a rare win, Willie Geist, the guy who pulls double duty on NBC's "Sunday TODAY" and MSNBC's "Morning Joe," has scored a deal to keep both gigs post-split, according to a source who spoke to Fox News Digital. 

Now that's some serious negotiating power.

But let's not kid ourselves, this isn't just a corporate reshuffle. MSNBC has been on a hiring spree, poaching big names like veteran journalist Carol Leonnig from the struggling Washington Post, because they know they're losing NBC's news-gathering muscle. The question is, can MS NOW stand on its own without the Peacock’s clout? 

And what does this mean for a network that's leaned so heavily on its liberal identity? The name "MS NOW" screams agenda-driven journalism. And don't let that flag fool you: MS NOW is not pivoting to the center.

And if you want to Buy Me A Coffee, I wouldn't stop you--it supports my work and I really appreciate it. But no pressure.

Fauxcahontas Warren backs communist Mamdani's agenda



Leave it to Elizabeth Warren, the extremely far-left fake Indian who never met a socialist idea she didn’t want to French kiss on live TV, to hop on MSNBC's Morning Joe and fangirl over Zohran Mamdani, New York City’s resident communist cosplayer running for mayor. 

Warren's practically tripping over herself to prop up this guy’s radical, economy-torching agenda like it’s the second coming of FDR’s New Deal. Spoiler alert: it's not. It’s just another Democrat love letter to big government and bad ideas.

"You got it, Joe! He comes in and talks about how to make NYC affordable for families," Warren gushed, sounding like she's auditioning for a role as Mamdani's public relations fan girl. Affordable for families? Sure, if your definition of "affordable" is standing in bread lines while the government decides who gets to live where.

Warren's all-in on Mamdani's Marxist fever dream, which includes gems like government-run grocery stores, because nothing screams "efficiency" like bureaucrats selling you overpriced kale. His platform reads like a Bernie Sanders fanfic: seize housing policy, slap 200,000 "affordable" units on the taxpayer's tab, freeze rents on city properties, and crank up rent control to kneecap private landlords. Mamdani’s not even pretending to care about small property owners or economic growth. 

Instead, he's out here demonizing "billionaire real estate moguls" and anyone else who dares invest in New York. Job creators? More like punching bags for this guy’s class-warrior shtick. And notice how it's no longer the 'millionaires' who are the problem, now that Bernie Sanders and his ilk are millionaires--it's only the billionaires.

The private sector's understandably freaking out. One New York real estate investment trust CEO is so desperate to stop Mamdani's lunacy that he’s hosting a $2,000-a-ticket fundraiser for Mayor Eric Adams to keep this socialist train-wreck from derailing the city's already shaky housing market. But Warren is too busy clapping like a trained seal for Mamdani's far-left fever dreams to notice the economic carnage his policies would unleash.

Even some Democrats, like the ones who haven't completely lost their minds, are side-eyeing Mamdani's track record of spicy statements and extremist positions. But Warren's doubling down, proving once again she would rather drag the party into AOC's socialist sandbox than deal with reality. New York's families and small businesses are simply collateral damage in her quest to make the Democratic Party the Bernie Bro Appreciation Club.

Joy Reid goes full Iran apologist on CNN but then this happened


Joy[less] Reid, the miserable ex-MSNBC leftist, just took a wild swing on CNN, defending Iran of all places after Trump dropped a weekend surprise on their nuclear sites. Yeah, that Iran. The one with a rap sheet longer than a Costco receipt for sponsoring terror and chaos.

Things got spicy fast on CNN’s Newsnight Tuesday, and Reid was serving up takes hotter than a Legionnaire's butt on the Sahara in the middle of summer.

CNN contributor Brad Todd came out swinging, laying it down plain: “Iran-backed militias that attacked the United States forces 170 times in Syria, in Jordan and in Iraq. You know who said that? Joe Biden said that. That’s why he authorized F-15 strikes against Iran.”

Bahdahboom! Facts on the table.

But Reid? She a dolt and wasn’t having it. Brushing off Biden like he’s yesterday’s news, she sneered, “I don’t look to former President Joe Biden as a moral authority because he has allowed Israel in an unrestrained manner to slaughter Palestinians in Gaza.”

Oh, we’re going there, eh? Reid doubled down, spinning a yarn about why Iran’s chasing nukes: “The bottom line here is the way that we know that Iran did not have nuclear weapons is that if they had nuclear weapons, Israel would not attack them. The reason they’re trying to get nukes, and probably Saudi Arabia is trying to get them, is because an expansionist power in their region keeps threatening them and actually bombs them.”

She's putting the cart before the horse, in a sense. The obvious truth is what Iran has said all along, and that's a little chant calling for death to Israel, and yes, America too.

Then Reid went full bird-brain: “I don’t think it’s okay that Israel has nukes either. And so the bottom line is, Israel does not even subject its nuclear weapons to the IAEA. And so my question is, should anyone in the region have nukes?”

Alright, Joy, slow down. You’re out here sounding like you’re auditioning for a UN debate club and didn't even bring your notes.

Host Abby Phillips wasn’t letting that slide, stepping in with a reality check: “Joy, this is not just about nukes. It’s also about Iran being a state sponsor of terrorism and chaos and violence and death around the world. So, I mean, there’s that too.”

Then Arthur Aidala piled on, calling out Reid for stanning a regime that “slaughters gay people and kills others for their religious beliefs.” Reid, too stupid to back down, fired back: “LGBTQ people can't even serve in the military under the president you prefer.”

Aidala wasn’t having it, clapping back, “We're not killing them!”

Reid kept digging: “They’re allowed to live, but they’re not allowed to serve in the United States military. They’re being persecuted. They can’t have their stories told in school. The United States is not exactly a beacon of rights for gay people.” Okay, Joy, comparing the U.S. to Iran’s death squads? That’s a stretch even for you. Aidala called her out for the false equivalence, and the panel was basically a cage match at this point.

And yes, LGBTQ people can openly serve in the military, but don't expect the military to do the genital mutilation for them. The "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy was repealed in 2011 and since then openly gay, lesbian and bisexual people can serve. In 2021, the Department of Defense lifted the ban on transgender individuals serving openly, allowing them to serve in their identified gender, provided they meet military standards.

This wasn’t the first time we’ve heard this tune. Just last week, The View’s Whoopi Goldberg tried a similar flex, claiming the U.S. in 2025 is basically Iran for Black folks. “Not if you're Black,” she insisted when co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin pushed back, with Sunny Hostin chiming in, “not for everybody.” 

The hyperbole is strong with this mentally challenged crew.

Reid’s still stinging from MSNBC canning her show earlier this year, and she has a theory: her Gaza coverage and relentless Trump-bashing got her the boot. Shocker, right? The far-left flamethrower thinks speaking “truth to power” cost her the gig. Maybe, Joy, it’s just that people got tired of the hot takes that sound like they’re scripted by a Reddit thread.

So, there you have it—Reid out here caping for Iran, sparring with CNN’s finest, and leaving us all wondering: what’s next, a fan letter to the ayatollah? Stay tuned, because this drama’s far from over.

Hey guys, if you like my blog,  please feel free to toss a virtual coffee my way on Buy Me a Coffee  It’s like a high-five with caffeine, and coffee keeps me focused, albeit somewhat hyper. No pressure, it's your call.

BREAKING: MSNBC cancels race baiter's show



Perhaps the race baiting is no longer fashionable, at least on cable tv. As of today, MSNBC has canceled Joy Reid's 7 p.m. show, "The ReidOut," in a major shake-up.

This latest decision is part of a wide programming overhaul led by the new MSNBC president, Rebecca Kutler. This is Ms. Kutler's first major change at the network and appointed president this month.

The final race-baiting episode is said to air sometime this week and Reid's time slot will be replaced by a panel show featuring Symone Sanders-Townsend, Michael Steele, and Alicia Menendez, who currently hosts "The Weekend."

Although the network hasn't made it official as of this moment, the news is all over the outlets such as the former newspaper, New York Times, The Hollywood Reporter, and Newsweek who cite sources familiar with the changes.

Reid is expected to remain with MSNBC in a different capacity, possibly as a contributor or correspondent, a race hustler, or just a blathering fool, though details are still unfolding. 

Although MSNBC had previously jumped ahead of CNN, they have always lagged behind Fox News because of their maniacal hatred of President Trump. People are obviously tired of their claptrap.


Charlie Kirk tweeted: J"oy Reid, aka the race lady at MSNBC, just had her show cancelled because it was unwatchable. Good riddance to the most vitriolic, lowbrow, and unhinged race hustler ever allowed on national television."

I disagree with Charlie--I always believed that Al Sharpton was the worst race hustler, but that's merely my opinion.

Sage Steele tweeted: "Sadly, every word of this is true. Maybe, just maybe, the days of making money off of race baiting and divisiveness are beginning to come to an end."

But the best response came from Megyn Kelly: "Remember when Joy Reid laughingly mocked 'white women tears' as pathetic and offensive to her? Who's crying now, Joy? Good riddance to the absolute worst person on television, shame on NBC for letting it go on this long."

This has been a long time coming and her show will be missed like fire hemorrhoids in August.

GOP moves to impeach lawfare judges trying to stop Trump

"I'll get you, Donald Trump"

Margaret Brennan probably knows that a leftist district judge in a Rhode Island backwater can't stop a US president from conducting his Article II powers. And now congressional GOP members aren't sitting back and allowing the lawfare to rule the nation. They are finally moving to impeach two judges whose trite and conflicted rulings have thrown a wrench into President Trump's agenda.

Trump has promised to follow the court's decisions until they are eventually reversed, whether by regular federal appeals courts or by the U.S. Supreme Court. Someday.

To stop what they call a "judicial circus," the Republican Party wants to emphasize that an activist Democrat judge who can't write clear decisions shouldn't be on the federal bench. They also want to point out that a judge who manages his own non-profit organization shouldn't be deciding whether President Trump can stop funding to other non-profits. 

This seems fair.

Republican members of Congress have started actions to impeach two judges who have blocked President Trump's policies. These judicial actions are being guided by Norm Eisen, famous for the Letitia James New York legal drama that was a big hit with the left, and Andrew Weissmann, who led the unfounded "Russia! Russia! Russia!" legal attacks against Trump. Both appear regularly on MSNBC, which some call the "court of clowns."

So now we have to sit back and wait to see how it all pans out. I would not be surprised to see Republicans coming out on top.

Make your move, your bold move Republicans.

Thanks.

Black church group retracts call for Sharptongue's suspension over covert donations from Harris' campaign




A coalition of Black churches is retracting its demand for MSNBC to suspend and investigate the anti-Semitic race-baiter and very very Reverend Al Sharptongue after his nonprofit received $500,000 from Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign. It is not known whether the very extreme Reverend  strong-armed the Black churches with threats, but that cannot be ruled out as yet.

Just a week after criticizing Sharptongue, saying his actions put a "moral stain on the integrity of the Black Church," the National Black Church Initiative (NBCI) took back their words, calling their initial statement "inappropriate" and admitting they made a "misstep," as sweat poured down faces and bodies shook. 

The Washington Free Beacon reported that the Harris campaign gave two $250,000 donations to Sharptongue's National Action Network on Sept. 5 and Oct. 1. These donations occurred before the super Reverend did a friendly interview with Kamala Hahaharris on Oct. 20.

In a statement posted on their Facebook page last Tuesday, the NBCI had slammed Sharptongue, highlighting "significant moral and journalism ethics" concerns due to the payment. They claimed to represent 150,000 churches nationwide and said they would "support Rev. Sharpton[gue's]'s suspension" until a full investigation was done.


However, on Monday, the initiative changed its tune, explaining that they were "unaware of the existing contract or agreement with Black organizations including the highly Reverend Sharptongue's National Action Network to conduct non-partisan Get Out the Vote (GOTV) efforts ahead of the election."

"We recognize the critical importance of this work. After further research, we have found no evidence that any candidate paid for support or endorsements, nor that NBC was engaged in any partisan political activities related to Vice President Ha[haha]rris' appearance on PoliticsNation. Furthermore, we understand that Vice President Ha[haha]rris has made previous appearances on PoliticsNation with the mostly Reverend Al Sharpton[gue] over the years," the statement continued.

The NBCI did not reply to emails asking about this change in position. MSNBC, Sharptongue, and the National Action Network also didn't respond to requests for comments on Tuesday.

MSNBC had previously suspended Joe Scarborough and the Wild and Whacky Keith Olbermann in 2010 for making political donations. When this issue with Sharpton's nonprofit came up, MSNBC mentioned to the Free Beacon that they were "unaware of the donations" but didn't clarify whether Sharptongue faced any consequences.

Black Church Insists MSNBC Suspend Unbelievably Rev. Al Sharptongue Over Kamala's Campaign Payoff

The Unbelievably Reverend Al Sharptongue

The National Black Church Initiative that represents 27.7 million people and 150,000 black churches across the country is calling on the far-left network MSNBC to suspend and investigate host Al Sharptongue over the covert donations his organization was paid by the Kamala Harris miserably failed presidential campaign. 

The group said Wednesday that it is "very concerned" by the "growing scandal," now that the incredibly Reverend Sharptongue has been outed and want the network to "launch an investigation" which will not somehow find a way to blame President-elect Trump for the failure to disclose Sharptongue's payoff. They want Rev. Sharptongue's suspension until the investigation is complete, and realize that it's going to take time for the network to find an actual journalist, especially an investigative journalist, to do the job of looking into why the money, all $500,000 of it, had not been disclosed when the very Reverend Sharptongue asked Harris the powderpuff questions October 3 on his MSNBC show PoliticsNation with the interview on October 20. 

The National Black Church Initiative was founded in 1991 with a mission of reducing "racial, social and . . . economic disparities" while preserving "the authority of the black church's voice." And while the wildly Reverend Al Sharptongue actually increases racial and social disparities between black and white people, they still refer to him with the honorific "Reverend."

In addition to the group focusing on disparities between black folks and white folks, they also are involved with health issues, especially those pertaining to black Americans. They have criticized the highly Reverend Al Sharptongue's in the past for taking donations from tobacco companies while opposing a ban on menthol cigarettes, a popular choice among black smokers. [Remember Willy the Penguin: 'Smoke Kools'.]

The initiative's president, the Rev. Anthony Evans, said Sharptongue is "loved and admired by many in our coalition, especially our gullible population who believe anything Rev. Al says."

Sharpton failed to disclose the money he was paid to his handful of viewers or to MSNBC executives, according to a spokes-lefty for the network.

The host has not addressed the scandal, and MSNBC has refused to comment on whether he was punished for failing to disclose the apparent conflict of interest. But the chances that the network would punish a black man who they know would attack them as racists and white supremacists would make it highly unlikely they would do anything to cross him. 

In 2010, MSNBC suspended network white hosts Joe Scarborough and Keith Olbermann for donating to Democratic Party campaigns, saying that the payments violated the network's policies that require employees to disclose political activity to company executives, but if they really wanted to, they needed to use a VPN and a third party credit card.

The Society of Professional Journalists, a prominent journalism ethics group, [no joke] has criticized MSNBC and Sharptongue over the conflict of interest, calling it a "black eye" for the network and the media industry as a whole. Mostly Reverend Sharptongue called the Society of Professional Journalists racists for using the term 'black eye.' "Why couldn't they call it a white eye? Why is it always a black eye?" he asked.

Meanwhile, former actor Rob Reiner said that if the wonderfully Reverend Al Sharptongue is disciplined, he will set himself on fire and then leave the country.

MSNBC/MSDNC anchors face huge pay cuts as Comcast severs ties with network



Comcast is finally pulling the plug on MSNBC, the media giant announced this Wednesday. This is tough luck for the overpaid and increasingly out-of-touch anchors who work there (temporarily). MSNBC, along with other cable channels that aren't doing so well, but not Bravo which is all about reality TV, will be turned into a separate company that anyone can buy stock in by the end of next year. This means MSNBC will no longer be part of the supposedly more serious and neutral NBC News, which often shares stories, fact-checking (take that with a grain of salt), and guest commentators with MSNBC. Comcast executives informed MSNBC employees on Wednesday that the channel might lose its name and the iconic peacock logo after this split. Plus, those huge p

The decision hints that Comcast's bigwigs can no longer explain to their investors why they keep paying top dollar to stars like Rachel Maddow, Joe Scarborough, and Joy Reid. Even though MSNBC and other cable channels owned by Comcast still bring in cash, their earnings have dropped a lot lately. That's why the higher-ups and those with money in the company are looking to dump what they call "declining assets." When word got out about the plan on Tuesday, Comcast's stock went up after the market closed. The hosts at MSNBC have done well for themselves, making big bucks by stirring up political fervor for a shrinking crowd of older folks. After this year's election, in prime time, MSNBC only managed to pull in 65,000 viewers aged 25-54, which is less than 10% of their total audience.

"This is sort of a very clear, direct statement by Comcast," Rich Greenfield, cofounder of the research firm LightShed Partners, told CNBC, which, by the way, is also being spun off into the new entity. "They are exiting the cable network business. This is them saying we don’t want to be in this business. This is no longer a growth business. It’s going to be around for a long time, but it’s just no longer a growth business."

After MSNBC and its related channels like USA, E!, and Oprah's Oxygen are spun off into their own company, the new bosses will likely seize the chance to streamline operations by laying off employees and cutting pay. The ridiculous situation where MSNBC anchors rake in millions to talk about extreme topics like Hitler to a shrinking crowd of just tens of thousands in total, and even fewer in the key 25-54 age group, will come to an end. Sure, some of the big names might talk about leaving, but their options are limited. CNN? Forget it. They're already in the process of downsizing too. The days of easy money are over, and frankly, most people in America don't seem too upset about it.

Here's a peek at a few of the outrageous MSNBC anchor salaries that executives at the new, yet-to-be-named media company are likely to cut dramatically:

Rachel Maddow [aka Madcow]

Once MSNBC and other channels like USA, E!, and Oprah's Oxygen become their own separate company, the new leaders will probably jump at the chance to make the business more efficient by letting some people go and drastically reduce salaries. The crazy part where MSNBC hosts get paid big bucks for discussing over-the-top subjects like Hitler to only a few thousand viewers, and even less in the important 25-54 age group, will be over. Sure, some famous hosts might think about quitting, but their choices are slim. CNN? No way. They're already cutting back. The era of making easy money is done, and honestly, most Americans aren't too bothered by it.

Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski [aka Mr. and Mrs. Scarborough

They'll say or do just about anything to boost their ratings and promote themselves. This big-shot couple at MSNBC, known for being bullies, sneaky, looking out for themselves, and being total hypocrites, just went to Mar-a-Lago to meet President-elect Trump. Remember, these are the same people who called him a "racist" and "fascist" like Hitler during the election. They probably got a huge pay deal like Rachel Maddow did. Scarborough, in particular, has gotten really out of touch. Scarborough claimed that the current Joe Biden was sharpest ever, which was clearly not true, especially since Biden's debate went so badly it made him quit the 2024 race. Despite once criticizing Al Sharpton for his anti-Semitic remarks, Scarborough often has him on to talk about stuff, even anti-Semitism.

Chris Hayes [aka Rachel Maddow-ish]

Chris Hayes, often referred to by his colleagues as "the male Rachel Maddow" but without her knack for reading from a teleprompter, tries to copy her smug attitude and factual inaccuracies. He's also facing a defamation lawsuit. When Hayes isn't disrespecting the military or advocating for transgender surgeries for kids, he's good at pushing racially charged comments on his show. Recently, he sat there, nodding, while Sherrilyn Ifill, ex-president of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, made unsubstantiated claims that Pete Hegseth, Trump's pick for Defense Secretary, was a white supremacist. This was too much even for Michael LaRosa, a long-time Democratic strategist and ex-MSNBC producer, who commented, "This stuff has to stop," pointing out that such rhetoric contributed to political losses.

Joy Reid

Joy Reid, who a lot of corporate leaders would probably want to get rid of because she's a political risk, actually got a promotion in 2020. This was even after she tried to say her old blog was "hacked" when people found old posts that were homophobic and anti-Semitic. Since then, her influence at MSNBC, a network that obviously doesn't have a problem with anti-Semitism, has just gotten bigger, but her show has turned into a platform for extreme racial issues and all sorts of wild claims. She brings on so called "experts" who say Republicans are making it impossible for Black people to vote, has accused Republicans of teaching people about "inflation," and recently criticized Latino men for voting for Trump, saying they're betraying their own race and families. None of this is based in reality and is itself racist.

Al Sharpton [aka Sharptongue]

Although Sharpton's official salary isn't high, people argue he's a race baiting idiot and is still getting too much, considering his controversial past. He was behind the 1991 Crown Heights riots, a major anti-Semitic event in America. Yet, the make-believe Reverend still collects a paycheck. The Kamala Harris campaign gave $500,000 to his group, the National Action Network, right before Sharpton had a cozy chat with Harris on his MSNBC show. This group is pretty cozy with MSNBC's head, Rashida Jones, who got a special award from them in 2021 and 2024.

Nicolle Wallace

Nicolle Wallace, who used to work for the Republicans but switched sides when she moved to New York and started getting paid to criticize them, is famous for pushing the narrative around Michael Avenatti, who was later convicted. She's adored by the #Resistance crowd, often having "experts" on her show who compare January 6 to the 9/11 attacks, saying the former was worse. After her 2019 divorce, Wallace started dating Michael Schmidt from the New York Times, who's been on her show a lot. (They're now married.) Schmidt is working on a Netflix show with Noah Oppenheim, the former NBC News president who's been accused of stopping Ronan Farrow from reporting on Harvey Weinstein's sexual misconduct.

NBC News

NBC News, which will stay under Comcast's wing, is thought to be in trouble by those in the know. There's a chance they'll have to let some people go and lower the huge salaries of their anchors to make up for the money they'll lose from MSNBC and CNBC. The network itself isn't doing so great either. The Today show, their biggest money-maker, has lost a ton of viewers over the years, and Nightly News with Lester Holt, who reportedly makes about $10 million annually, has seen its ratings in the key 25-54 demographic drop by half since 2018. After the split, Comcast might decide to scale down NBC News, which could mean less pay for stars like Holt and Savannah Guthrie, who makes around $18 million for hosting the Today show. Interestingly, Guthrie is married to Michael Feldman, a Democratic strategist who used to work with Al Gore.

MSNBC viewers leaving in droves since Election Day


Since Election Day, far-left propaganda network MSNBC has lost an eye-popping 54% of their primetime viewership according to Nielsen Media Research.

While the leftist network averaged 1.1 million viewers in October, by Wednesday, the day after Election Day, and the following Thursday and Friday, the average viewership circled the bowl at 736,000 viewers. That's about as many people that can fit on the roof an India train bound for Delhi. 

Perhaps Trump's landslide victory was just too much for them to bare.

Meanwhile, like them or not, Fox News Channel's viewership grew by 61% over the same time period as MSNBC had an overall drop of 31%.

MSNBC also dropped 26% of its year-to-date totals, but things got even worse in primetime, as per Nielsen. For starters: 
During the primetime hours of 8-11 p.m. ET, MSNBC averaged 1.8 million total viewers in October but viewership of "Alex Wagner Tonight," "All in with Chris Hayes" and "The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell" have averaged only 808,000 total viewers since election night. The 54% drop represents more than half of the network’s primetime viewers, and MSNBC is also down 51% from its year-to-date totals while Fox News is up 58% in primetime compared to 2024 averages.

MSNBC is also down 16% among total day viewers and 57% during primetime among the critical demographic of adults age 25-54, which is most coveted by advertisers.
A veteran TV news executive anonymously said that MSNBC’s audience appeared to love to hate Trump during his first administration – but that doesn’t seem to be the case any longer.

"As its poor post-election night ratings show, MSNBC should not expect a ‘Trump Bump’ this time around. Even liberals are rejecting its condescending tone and the divisive rhetoric of its new standard-bearer, Joy Reid," the longtime TV news executive said.

Will her days in the public eye be numbered?

MSNBC personalities have not taken Harris’ loss particularly well, as hosts and pundits have repeatedly tried to assign blame for President-elect Trump’s landslide victory. 

The American people have spoken both at the ballot box and with early voting.

People are tired of the claptrap and racism spewed by such MSNBC lunatics like Joy Reid, who never met a white man she didn't hate.

Perhaps someone on the far-left will buy the network before it is fully flushed down the bowl.

Harris wasn't Biden's first choice for border czar: she was his 2nd choice

"Hi, I'm Kamala Harris and I'm useless, hahahahaha"

Vice President Kamala "Speaks Through Three Holes" Harris, while campaigning to become the first female [whatever that is] not exactly Black President of the United States, is disavowing her role as border czar bestowed on her by our so called President Joseph Biden.

The media has gone berserk over this label because they know that she was an absolute useless border czar and the claims made by these meatballs are verifiably false as MRC shows in a melange of media reporting over time.

PolitiFact wrote, "Claims that President Joe Biden named Harris the ‘border czar’ and that she is responsible for overseeing U.S. border enforcement gained prominence at the Republican National Convention as the party sought to link her to his immigration policy. Biden didn’t put Harris in charge of overseeing border security.”

Really?

Axios wrote, “The Trump campaign and Republicans have tagged Harris repeatedly with the ‘border czar’ title – which she never actually had.”

“Kamala Harris Was Never Biden’s ‘Border Czar,’” TIME Magazine claimed. 

A USA Today "fact check" headline said, "Harris' border work was on 'root causes' of migration; she wasn't in charge." Axios wrote, “The Trump campaign and Republicans have tagged Harris repeatedly with the ‘border czar’ title – which she never actually had.”

Although Harris was not officially given the title "border czar"--because it's too Russian-sounding--many lefty Russophiles in the media used that label to describe Harris' assigned border role. Biden tasked her specifically with addressing the root causes of migration from Central America and working with the countries in the region, emphasizing diplomatic efforts to manage and reduce the flow of migrants heading to the U.S.-Mexico border. 

Her mandate was broader than just border enforcement; it was about tackling systemic issues in those countries to create lasting solutions, which she failed at miserably.

Harris was not Biden's first border czar; she was the second woman chosen as border czar by the alleged president.

After only 100 days as border czar, Roberta Jacobson, President Joe Biden’s first border czar, left the role on April 9, 2021, after already “grappling with large increases of migrants attempting to cross into the U.S.,” Even The Los Angeles Times reported, saying, “Biden’s border czar … is stepping down.”

Yes, even the comrades at the LA Times referred to the position as border czar.


However, before Jacobson stepped down, Biden announced at a March 24, 2021 news conference that Kamala Hahaharris would be responsible for addressing the southwest border surge that already began within days of him taking office. “I can think of nobody who's better qualified to do this than the former” California attorney general, Biden mumbled.

Harris was chosen to lead the effort as border czar because “the best thing to do is to put someone [in the role] when he or she speaks they don't have to wonder about where the president is,” Biden read carefully. “When she speaks, she speaks for me. She doesn’t have to check with me. She knows what she's doing. I hope we can move this along [to address the] increasing challenges at our southwest border. No one knows this better than the vice president.”

In that inimitable way she has, Harris said both through her mouth and nostrils,  “There's no question that this is a challenging situation. While we are clear that people should not come to the border now, we also understand that we will enforce the law. Because we can chew gum and walk at the same time, we must address the root causes that cause people to make the trek.” She also looked forward to working with Congress “to address root causes of migration. Needless to say, the work will not be easy, but it is important work.”

Just a normal Tuesday at the border: thanks Kamala

It was so challenging that she couldn't find her way to the porous border if the fairies dropped breadcrumbs along the way.

Multiple news outlets gleefully reported on the announcement, including The Washington Post, The Hill, the Associated Press, Axios, Politico, Reuters, The Huffington Post,  NBC News and even Fox News, to name the biggies.

The social media site X fact checked Axios' recent claim using one of its own articles, stating, “On April 14, 2021, Axios' Shawna Chen confirmed Kamala Harris had been appointed Biden's ‘Border Czar.’ 

If that isn't clear enough, Chen wrote: "Harris, appointed by Biden as border czar, said she would be looking at the ‘root causes’ that drive migration."

Since Harris was tapped as border czar, The Center Square has published 69 news stories covering the border crisis as it relates to the border czar. House Republicans this week filed two articles of impeachment against Harris, one over her role in addressing the border crisis. The other article against her might be her level of confused verbiage--she may not be demented like someone we know, but her word salads should come with a dressing.

But seriously, Harris has not event made an attempt to do her assigned job.

Biden’s March 24, 2021, announcement was made after members of Congress toured a federal detention facility in Carrizo Springs, Texas, where 700 unaccompanied minors were being held. U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, (D-Laredo), posted images of them sleeping on concrete floors in response to media outlets being denied access by the Biden administration. The left tried to blame this situation on Trump, but it's hard to argue with visual proof.

Earlier that month, Cuellar warned, “We are weeks, maybe even days, away from a crisis on the southern border. Inaction is simply not an option. Our country is currently unprepared to handle a surge in migrants.”

Harris was not only unprepared to handle a surge, it was apparent that she welcomed it, as did alleged President Joseph Biden. The border was a sieve of illegal aliens flooding into the country where now the left wants to give these non-citizens not only taxpayer benefits, but the right to vote in US elections!

Harris never visited the facility or Cuellar’s district. Since then, more than 12 million foreign nationals have illegally entered the country under Harris the Border Czar. She only visited a port of entry in El Paso on June 25, 2021, which is 800 miles away from the real crisis in the Rio Grande Valley.

On March 31, 2021, Abbott sent his first letter to Harris, stating, "Now that President Biden has named you Border Czar in charge of the administration’s response, I want to express to you the threats and challenges caused by this administration’s open border policies. These policies embolden and enrich cartels, smugglers, and human traffickers who continue to ramp up their criminal operations. Given your new role as the administration’s Border Czar, I urge you to visit the border to see the crisis for yourself, and … to take swift action to secure the border, crack down on human trafficking, and prevent more children from being trafficked and abused."

As calls grew for Harris to visit the border and respond to the crisis, by an April 20, 2022, press briefing White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked, “Does the president still have confidence” in Harris as border czar. She replied by confirming Harris' role as border czar, “He absolutely does.”

Abbott maintains, "‘Border Czar’ Harris has NOT done her job to secure the border. Innocent Americans have lost their lives, law enforcement has been assaulted, and fentanyl has killed thousands.” He’s also called on Americans to vote for Trump to secure the border.

I say vote for Trump to secure peace and prosperity for the country. Harris will not bring us peace--she will bring us far-left policies and show the world her weakness.

MSNBC tried to trick their dozen viewers into thinking they were at RNC convention



MSNBC commie chicks Rachel Maddow, Jen Psaki, and Joy Reid lied to their dozen or more viewers. They portrayed themselves as being at the RNC convention while criticizing the GOP and half the country who vote for them, but the truth was that they never even attended the convention. Instead, they used a LED screen to make it look as if they were there. They also use facial expressions to make it look like they have a working cerebral cortex.

They lied to their viewers. There is nothing more disrespectful than to treat your viewers as if they're too stupid to know of the lies. Instead of broadcasting from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, as MSNBC hosts pretended to do, they were sitting in their comfy Manhattan headquarters. 

Hosts Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, and Jen Psaki used a large LED screen to make it look like they were at the Milwaukee RNC when, in reality, they were broadcasting from the comfort of their Manhattan headquarters where they criticized former and next President Trump, and his vice presidential pick, JD Vance (R-OH).

How utterly unethical to try convincing viewers that the hosts were somewhere they were not.

“If news organizations don’t represent where they are clearly, then how is the audience to have faith and confidence in the actual content of the reporting?” former CNN Washington Bureau Chief Frank Sesno told former newspaper, The New York Times.

In MSNBC's case, there is no reason the audience should have faith in what their content is.

Sesno acknowledged that it could seem “frivolous” to make a big deal out of the network not actually being at the RNC but insisted that there is “something profoundly important here.”

“News organizations need to be very careful and very transparent about what they represent and how they represent it,” he said.

“The arrangement — which several veteran television news producers described as unorthodox — has created something of a trompe l’oeil effect. A casual glance at the screen would suggest that MSNBC’s top anchors were covering the convention in person,” the disgraceful Times added.

The outlet noted that MSNBC hosts regularly announce their location at the top of every broadcast hour, such as in New York or at MSNBC headquarters. However, throughout the week, they only mentioned their location a few times over several hours of coverage, hoping their dozens of viewers were getting new rainbow tattoos.

Biden braintrust blame WH staff for Joe's demented debate performance

". . . anyway . . . "

Doctor Jill and Hunter Biden, along with Joe's inner circle, blame the White House staff for Joe's demented performance at the Presidential debate with a living person named Donald Trump. They believe the staff gave him too much information for his addled brain to process and overloaded him with words. They even overloaded him with facial makeup that made him look pale.

Fortunately, they fixed the latter problem and spray-tanned his face to make him look Trump.

Meanwhile, the first family is urging Joe to stay in the race despite the debate debacle at the first Presidential debate last Thursday, because if he drops out of the race, Hunter will likely go to prison for his crime, and Jill will lose the Munchausen presidency syndrome by proxy.

Even the DNC's New York Times and MSNBC called the Democrats' reaction to Biden's disastrous [albeit predictable by Republicans] performance as "panic" Jill and Hunter are practically begging Joe to not give up the ship of fools.

One leftist source close to Biden’s inner circle said, “the entire family is united” in keeping Joe Biden in the race and denied that The President is considering dropping out. Fact is, Joe Biden's only consideration is one scoop or two.

His family members have said, “You get up and keep fighting,” according to the source.

The Biden family is venting its anger on White House staffers rather than blaming Biden’s age, advanced dementia, poor judgment, inability to complete two sentences without a teleprompter [and then it's still a crap-shoot] his chronic lying, his visual hallucinations and his infirmity for the poor showing.

John Morgan, a top Democratic donor and friends with Joe's brother Frank, made the following claim: “Biden has for too long been fooled by the value of Anita Dunn and her husband,” Morgan wrote on social media. “They need to go … TODAY. The grifting is gross. It was political malpractice.” 

And he was not referring to Hunter or the Biden family's political malpractice.

Morgan said in an interview, “It would be like if you took a prizefighter who was going to have a title fight and put him in a sauna for 15 hours then said, ‘Go fight,’” he said. “I believe the debate is solely on Ron Klain, Bob Bauer, and Anita Dunn.” Certainly not on Joe Biden's inability to hide his dementia from the American public.

Anita Dunn serves as Biden’s senior adviser; her husband, Bob Bauer, is his lawyer, and Ron Klain is the former chief of staff and is known to be a total jerk.

Biden’s family and friends have accused Klain of overloading him with statistics and long words during debate preparations, not giving him adequate rest, and even allowing makeup artists to make him look pale.

And if you believe that was what affected Joe's performance, you're probably working for MSNBC.

Our country is being run by somebody behind the proverbial curtain. It sure as squirrel poop is nutty, it isn't Joe Biden running anything.
