MSNOW’s Rachel Maddow Eulogizes Robert Mueller by Doubling Down and Insisting That RussiaGate Was Real 

Rachel Maddow, the queen of the Russia collusion hoax, was brought onto MSNOW tonight to react to the death of former FBI director Robert Mueller, who led the pointless investigation that came up with nothing.

According to Maddow, Mueller confirmed her anti-Trump conspiracy theories. She actually doubled down on the hoax during the segment. Maddow made a fortune pushing this lie to her audience and yet she has never been forced to apologize or faced consequences of any kind.

She even suggests that Mueller’s findings were shut down by then attorney general Bill Barr, who she claims outmaneuvered Mueller politically.

Mediaite has details:

Maddow joined The Weekend: Primetime on Saturday to share her thoughts on Mueller, hours after he died at the age of 81. The MS NOW veteran was complimentary of Mueller overall, but said his two-year probe into Trump failed to land a devastating blow because Barr “outplayed” Mueller.

“There’s a reason on a day like this, we need to remind people what was in Mueller’s report — what were the results of his investigation — and that’s because of a failure on his part,” Maddow said. “That is because once his investigation and his report were concluded, he was just wildly outmaneuvered by a really serpentine Attorney General named Bill Barr, who played really dirty pool when it came to the handling and release of the information from Mueller’s investigation.”

She continued:

I don’t know if he was blindsided by it or if he thought Barr was a good guy and would be a straight shooter on this, but Barr absolutely buried him in terms of in terms of the impact of of that report. And given the way that bill Barr became attorney general, Mueller and his team should have seen that coming.

If they did see it coming, they should have come up with a way to outmaneuver Barr while he was outmaneuvering them, and they didn’t.

MSNOW Cutting Some ‘News’ Shows to Focus on Anti-Trump Resistance Programming

MSNOW, the left wing network formerly known as MSNBC, is dropping the charade of being a ‘news’ network to focus on their real money maker, which is anti-Trump resistance TV shows.

This is actually a smart move for them.

People who watch MSNOW are not going there for news, they watch to have their anti-Trump biases confirmed. They watch to cheer on as the hosts insult Trump and all things Republican.

Rating MS DOWN? MS NOW Shakes Up Network Line Up, Anchors Out

After being cast out into the wilderness by NBCUniversal last year, things didn’t appear to be going well for the rebranded “MS NOW.” On Wednesday, a shakeup was announced that saw daytime completely reshaped with two anchors losing their seats with at least one already announcing that she had quit, Morning Joe experiencing some shrinkage, while a new face would appear during the 11th Hour, among other shifts.

Going down the line up, first, Morning Joe will be losing an hour. After spending some time at an inflated four hours of Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski shrieking at the camera, the purported preferred morning show for Washington D.C. insiders would be returning to just three hours.

Anchor Stephanie Ruhle will be leaving The 11th Hour and taking over that lost hour from Morning Joe, as well as the following one. Meaning her time slot would be 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

One of the more noteworthy line items in the shakeup was Ana Cabrera losing her position as an anchor of the 11a a.m. slot, and her announcement that she would be leaving the company.

REALLY? Jonathan Capehart of MSNOW Claims ‘The Media Isn’t Necessarily Liberal’ 

Jonathan Capehart of MSNOW appeared on PBS this weekend and claimed, with a straight face, that the media is necessarily liberal.

He was taking part in a discussion about the imminent takeover of CNN by Paramount and was defending CNN’s coverage.

As proof of his claim about the media, he admitted that FOX News, which leans right, is the most-watched cable news network. He failed to point out that FOX is the only right-leaning network in a media sea of progressive spin.

NewsBusters reports:

Reverting to his first instinct, Brooks conceded that new CBS News chief Bari Weiss’s intention to shake things up is not unreasonable, “And I’m a guy who—I don’t know Bari Weiss particularly, but I support what they’re trying to do. I think it’s time to mix up the media. That we got a little too progressive, a little too elite, and if Bari Weiss can change the mind-set, all power to her.”

Flip-flopping again, Brooks lamented, “But if this is being done for lobbying and business, which it sure looks like it is, then that’s the real deterioration in the business we’re in.”

Even that centrist position was too much for Capehart, “Well, I would argue that the media isn’t necessarily liberal, when you look at the fact that the number one cable channel and the number one viewing channel is Fox News Channel.”

Proving that he hasn’t watched CBS since the Weiss takeover, Capehart continued, “This idea that there are liberals out there running around through the media indoctrinating people and changing—you know, setting the narrative, I just think is wrong. I think bringing a Fox-like mentality and demeanor to CBS News and potentially to CNN, I think in the end makes the American people worse off.”

He also added, “Our job as journalists, and I’m speaking specifically of CNN in this case in this deal. Folks turn to CNN for news. They turn to them for just what is happening in the country. And if what’s happening at CBS is bound—could happen at CNN, then our country and our profession will be in worse shape.”

MSNBC Caught Airbrushing Alex Pretti into Male Model to Milk Sympathy: Joe Rogan Calls BS!

Podcast host Joe Rogan and commentator Andrew Wilson criticized what they described as deliberate image manipulation by major media outlets during a recent exchange, accusing networks of altering appearances to shape public perception.

The discussion centered on a comparison between how MSNBC allegedly edited an image of a man involved in a controversial shooting and how CNN portrayed Rogan himself during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Did you see what MSNBC did to his image?” Rogan asked.

“Yeah. Where they gussied it up,” Wilson replied.

Rogan argued that MSNBC’s treatment of the image stood in stark contrast to his own experience with CNN, which he said altered his appearance in an unflattering way during coverage related to COVID.

“Basically they did the opposite of what CNN did to me. You know, CNN during the covid times, turned me green, and they made me ugly and look like I was dying, and they made him handsome. So people would be more sympathetic to him getting shot, which is kind of wild, like, are ugly people less valuable to MSNBC?” Rogan said.

Wilson responded dryly, “Less marketable.”

MSNOW Hack Starts CRYING Over Radical Activist Who Tried To Run Over ICE Agent

An MSNOW contributor broke down in tears live on air over the death of Renee Nicole Good, the “ICE Watch” agitator who got herself killed after trying to mow down a federal officer in Minneapolis.

As it has now become abundantly clear, Good deliberately blocked agents, accelerated toward them, and forced a split-second self-defense decision. But leave it to the leftist media to twist this into a tragedy for American “families,” all while stoking hatred against law enforcement agents trying to do their job and arrest illegal alien criminals.

As we highlighted earlier, eyewitness accounts and footage have confirmed that Good, the lead agitator who had been stalking ICE all day, turned her vehicle sideways, intentionally blocking the road for minutes before backing up and then lurching forward toward the agents.

This wasn’t some random mishap. The woman was a trained member of the radical “ICE Watch” network, a leftist coalition using apps, vehicles, and harassment tactics to sabotage federal immigration enforcement. Her actions fit a dangerous pattern of vehicle ramming attacks that have skyrocketed over 3,000% in the past year.

MSNBC’s Ali Velshi Urges Viewers to Ruin Thanksgiving by Confronting Family Over Rumored Trump ‘Third Term’ Run

MSNBC host Ali Velshi has urged his dwindling audience to turn Thanksgiving dinners into heated political showdowns over the idea of Donald Trump seeking a third term as president.

In a segment titled “How We Prepare,” Velshi laid out a paranoid four-point plan to “resist” what he claims are Republican efforts to undermine future elections, while specifically calling on viewers to confront family members who dare mention a Trump third term.

“When people actually show up, that’s what works,” Velshi said.

The unhinged host continued, “In 2020, lawyers, judges and ordinary citizens forced the certification of the presidential election in the states. In Wayne county, Michigan, ground zero for the first nullification attempt, when officials flirted with refusing to certify the election, the public flooded the meeting. The plot collapsed the moment that locals caught wind of it. Republicans were willing to subvert democracy in the dark, but not so much in front of an engaged public. That’s lesson one for 2025.”

Next, he pushed for “voter buddy systems” to protect so-called vulnerable groups like Latino voters from intimidation, bizarrely warning about ICE agents lurking at polling places to scare people away. It appears to be an admission of his belief that illegal aliens are voting, as this would not be a concern for American citizens.

“Number two, create voter buddy systems, especially for neighbors who fear intimidation at the polls,” Velshi continued. “One tactic experts are worried about is the potential deployment of ICE agents to polling places. You can see why some qualified Latino voters — never mind Latino voters — anybody who’s a little bit brown like me, wouldn’t want to get caught up in a raid, thrown into detention until they can clear their names, just for going out to vote.”

His third plan point? Form “rapid-response teams” of everyday citizens to stake out polling places, voter dropboxes, and county meetings like some amateur surveillance squad.

“Build local rapid response teams, groups of ordinary citizens who show up as they’re doing in courts right now, at county meetings, at certification hearings, at voter dropboxes your physical presence is a deterrent to improper and illegal behavior,” he said.

The Trump Derangement Syndrome poster boy also advised monitoring election practices in other states as “test runs” for bigger schemes.

“Follow what’s happening in other states,” he urged. “That’s why these elections on Tuesday are so important, whether you live in one of them or not. The military deployments, attempted voter purges, the election monitors — consider them all trial runs for the bigger play, the one that’s going to happen right where you live.”

Ultimately, he asks his viewers to ruin Thanksgiving.

Velshi suggested shoving a pocket Constitution in the face of “that one uncle” who brings it up, pointing to the 22nd Amendment: “No person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice.”

“And finally, do not let Donald Trump and Republicans normalize talk of a third term — a third presidential term is illegal. Full stop,” Velshi declared. “So when that one uncle floats a third term loophole conspiracy over Thanksgiving dinner, don’t let it slide. And if your uncle insists that it’s doable, hand him one of these: A pocket Constitution opened to the 22nd amendment, section one, which reads, quote, ‘No person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice.’”

GASLIGHTING: MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace Claims No Democrats Have Compared Trump to Hitler

MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace looked into a camera today, and with a straight face, claimed that no Democrats have compared President Trump to Hitler.

Not only have they compared Trump to Hitler repeatedly, they’ve done it on Wallace’s own show.

This is the type of obvious gaslighting and outright lying that has caused millions of Americans to lose trust in the media. Everyone knows this is a lie, yet she just tells viewers not to believe their own eyes and ears.

The Wrap reports:

JB Pritzker insisted that he has never compared Donald Trump to Hitler – one week after he compared the United States’ use of ICE and border patrol agents to Nazi Germany.

“I haven’t suggested that Donald Trump is Hitler,” the Illinois Governor said while talking with Nicolle Wallace on “The Best People” podcast.

Wallace chimed in: “I don’t think any Democrat has. I think it’s a smear that they project back onto critics. JD Vance called Donald Trump cultural heroin, he called him America’s Hitler. The attacks on Donald Trump as a fascist came from three-star generals who worked for him.”

Just last week, while speaking at The Economic Club of Chicago, Pritzker drew parallels between Trump’s leveraging of ICE and the border patrol against illegal immigrants to the Nazi’s attacks on Jews.

“This is how authoritarian regimes do it,” Pritzker said. “They create these kind of fake ideas that there’s an enemy out there and it could be sitting next to you at one of these tables. So just somebody sitting at your table that you don’t like might be one of those enemies. So let’s round them up, let’s make sure they are the subjects of the laws that we’re passing, because we don’t like who they are. That is what authoritarian regimes do.”

Sedition: MSNBC Reporter Opines Military Will Turn on Trump, Urges Young People Against Joining Over Deployment of National Guard Troops to Protect ICE Agents and Facilities

President Donald Trump has mobilized National Guard troops to protect ICE agents and federal facilities from violent protesters and deadly assassins, and to help law enforcement officers in several cities across the country and the District of Columbia.

The deployment of Guard troops to Los Angeles, Portland, Chicago, Memphis and D.C. has been met with outrage and lawsuits by blue state governors, mayors, other Democrat officials and liberal reporters.

One such liberal reporter is MSNBC’s Jacob Soboroff.

Soboroff made his career adversely reporting on Trump’s first term migrant child separation policy meant to protect children from being trafficked by cartels into sex and work slavery.

Soboroff turned his anti-Trump reporting on migrant children into a book and movie deal titled Separated.

During the four years of Joe Biden’s presidency, Soboroff ignored the mass trafficking by the Biden administration of migrant children into work and sex slavery in the U.S.

Now with Trump back in office and vigorously enforcing immigration and deportation laws, Soboroff is back on the immigration beat.

Soboroff posted a clip of a discussion he had with MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace on Monday, adding, “for over four months I’ve reported as Trump has put troops and federal agents in cities across America. more than ever I’m seeing and hearing from people pushing back — standing up for immigrants, democracy and members of our military who don’t want this.”

Soboroff tried to undermine Trump’s deployment of Guard troops, saying that after speaking with troops he believes they will turn on Trump, that their families and neighbors will turn on them and urged young people not to join the military.

Trump-Hating Michael Cohen Shocks MSNBC Hacks by Admitting Comey Likely Committed a Crime and Will Be Found Guilty

MSNBC’s smug panelists were left stunned on Saturday when Michael Cohen, the disgraced former Trump attorney who has spent the last several years trashing President Trump, admitted on live TV that James Comey “likely committed a crime” and “will be found guilty.”

The left-wing network’s anchors weren’t prepared for Cohen’s blunt assessment.

Cohen, once weaponized by Alvin Bragg and Joe Biden’s DOJ in Trump’s sham New York trial, now says evidence in Comey’s case will prove that he broke the law and weaponized the FBI.

Cohen’s remarks were so unexpected that they left Elise Jordan gasping for air.

Elise Jordan:
You predicted this. Not that it’s a great development for the rule of law in our country. Did you think it would be this fast, though? And who do you think is next?”

Michael Cohen:
Well, is it about the rule of law? Do any of us actually really know whether or not Comey is or is not guilty of the charges? I know that they parade out all of these pundits — they have the great titles in the chyron: former prosecutor, former FBI. Who’s seen a single document that’s in the possession right now of the DOJ? The answer is nobody. Who has the crystal ball? Still nobody.

I will tell you, from my investigation — which I used Brian Karem, who’s a 30-year White House correspondent, to speak to people inside government because they wouldn’t talk to me — I’ve learned that Comey was actually very much involved in the Russia investigation in a very negative way. Chances are this DOJ has every single email, every text message, every communication. I believe, likely, he will be found guilty.”

Elise Jordan:
“Oh, well, that’s interesting, because a lot on the right —

Michael Cohen:
I think he likely committed a crime.

Elise Jordan:
What specifically?

Michael Cohen:
I believe, likely, he committed a crime. I don’t know what that crime is, but there are hundreds of thousands of documents, and the government has each and every one of them. All they need to find is that one. Remember, James Comey, when he was the head of the FBI, was so used to punching down. Well, now you have the FBI that’s going to be punching up. I’ve been through this system. I know better than anybody what a weaponized DOJ looks like and feels like. It is insurmountable.

MSNBC’s O’Leary: Not ‘Really Clear, Definable Ideology or Motive’ in Kirk Assassination

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” MSNBC Security and Intelligence Analyst Christopher O’Leary discussed the shooting at an ICE facility in Texas and stated that “we have not seen, in this case, yet, and even not in the Charlie Kirk assassination, a really clear, definable ideology or motive.”

O’Leary said, “So, what we saw in Dallas, with the special agent in charge, the mayor, the chief of police, was a unified message putting out what they knew at the time, the resources that were being arrayed against understanding it better, and really just settling the public that there was no ongoing threat. And that was done well. And that’s — and there was unity amongst the interagency there.”

He continued, “And then you have Director Patel putting out information that is clearly, immediately trying to assign blame. And I don’t think we know enough, and I don’t think the FBI quite knows enough yet what the motivation is here. Does it look like there may be a political angle to this, based on the recovered evidence? For sure. Do I think there [are] trends that are moving in that direction, that we could see more violence emerging from the different sides of the political spectrum? Absolutely. But we have not seen, in this case, yet, and even not in the Charlie Kirk assassination, a really clear, definable ideology or motive.”
