I watch Rachel and Lawrence every evening; if I'm not home, it's on the DVR. Both give it to you with gusto and truth, you can't ask for more than that.
I too agree with Laurieanne, Rachel and Jon. Jon, you are spot on including Lawrence O'Donnell. I think he was the first big name news caster who called out Trump right after his first election when there were those who said, 'oh, he'll become 'presidential'. O'Donnell said, 'no, he won't. That isn't in him.'
Both Maddow and O’Donnell speak the truth and have actually gotten more bold in their criticism. I often wonder how long this will last? Last night O’Donnell said Trump has “economic dementia” several times during his show. We would argue he also has a severe lack of empathy for others!
Me too. Once convicted felon was on the world stage, it was time to change viewing habits. I stopped watching all network, local and cable news. I have not missed it at all. Thanks to Meidas for keeping me sane and providing unvarnished truth in news.
I still watch most networks (not faux entertainment news), but have the mute button ready for Cheeto, Miller, the blond bimbos, the puppy killer and the drunk at DOD. The button is starting to show a lot of wear. :)
Rachel Maddows report yesterday on YOUTUBE....."Anti Trump protests sweep the nation,crossing the threshold of mainstream media attention"..YOUTUBE...She is the one too.......FINALLY liist all the media outlets that HAD to report the massive demonstrations...........totally worth a look.
I saw that one as well. It was very informative. I agree that her and Lawrence are fearless in their reporting. They are well researched and cover aspects of the news that may be easily overlooked. Laurence's views on Trump from 2016 are even more valid today. I also like Michael Steele and Simone.
You are out of your mind. About 2 years ago, Rachel wrote a book where she highlighted the meeting of the Nazis in 1930s at Madison Square Garden. It was the first time I became aware of that. She also indicated that the Nazis were supported by a prominent millionaire, Henry Ford. In an interview she intimated that the current Nazi movement may very well have the support of another US billionaire, likely Elon Musk. She was spot on. She is one of the best and most fearless journalists out there.
How extensively did she cite Madeleine Albright's history of fascism, written over ten years ago? She covered the same ground, and much better. It's always best to exploit a niche when the actual heroes and heroines of democracy have passed on. Your ignorance doesn't exalt Maddow as an author. You sound like you're reminiscing about your prom date.
James ....You are an imposter......a fake that is unable to see or touch the truth. Ms Maddow is the real deal........not going to waste valuable time on you if that is not clear to you. Like dealing with Maga......just move on to a place and time that is of value and substance.
You are a liar. She has a bachelors degree in public policy from Stanford and a PhD in political science from University of Oxford. I bet your degree is in political nonsense fro Trump University. What position did you play on the softball team there?
She poses as an intellectual, but is just a careerist. She confused the concept of an acronym with that of an anagram in a recent rant (the McMahon AI vs. A1 story; the sad part is that AI is an abbreviation.) She embarrassed herself playing parlor games with Jimmy Fallon (she's no Jane Lynch.) Stop idolizing someone who is just another ignorant American journalist.
So that's a no. No, you have no concrete arguments. You have some kind of hatred for her as a person, for mysterious reasons, and that's it. That's what I thought already ;-)
What makes you think I am obliged to refute a subjective thesis? Especially in this medium? Maddow is just another mediocre person dumb people think of as a smart person.
If you cannot even back up your own claim and admit it's entirely "subjective", then you're confirming my point: you're here to vent, not to have a rational, real debate (defined as: a conversation that allows us all to get closer to reality by studying objective, proven evidence and facts).
Democracy cannot survive without real debates among citizens who disagree. So feel free to use a Substack as nerdy as Krugman's to merely whine, but in that case, your attitude is definitely part of the problem, not the solution.
I was referring to your estimation of Maddow as the subjective thesis. Hang out in your neighborhood bar if you can't take your sacred cow getting gored. Stop being starstruck by poseurs on the telebision.
OK....I get it now~! You're jealous! That's OK! She's not supposed to be Jane Lynch! She is RACHEL MADDOW! Jane is a great actress. Rachel is a scholar. Whenever you thought you knew her, that's then! NOW she is AMAZING!
I am a student of political science. The stupidest people in my classes were always the journalism students trying to earn their political science degree requirements. Journalists are ignorant, and think they are fulfilling a professional tenet behaving that way. Meidas are lawyers, not journalists. Their legal reporting is their core strength. They rarely review journalists like they did Jim Acosta.
I really, really, really appreciate Rachel Maddow & Lawrence O’Donnell as well. And yes, they have called the devil the devil so to speak. A spade a spade. A con man a con. A fascist a fascist. A sexual abuser an absolutely depraved human being. And they have backed it up with facts. And a strong clear voice with a strong clear message. Alongside the call to justice and democracy. We the people need to continue to use our voices. On the behalf of the entirety of humanity. And we need to find ways for our words turn into action. And results. And this message is from 🇨🇦
All your info is old. All you are doing is looking back and whining. You do not seem like you are PRO ANYTHING but stupid debates about stuff that is not going to move us foward to ending the push to this fascist BS. So ,maybe it will surprise you when you wake up and its too late. Help or get out of the way with the pity party.
Rachel Maddow is “the gift” please interview her. She’s beyond intelligent, fierce and fair.
I agree. She tells important stories with background information and color. There is no one like her at MSNBC, second would be Lawrence O’Donnell
I agree! They're both fearless and speak the truth.
I watch Rachel and Lawrence every evening; if I'm not home, it's on the DVR. Both give it to you with gusto and truth, you can't ask for more than that.
It's why mag@T$ hate her so much. Makes me laugh 😃
I like Chris Hayes as well.
Chris Hayes just did a great interview with a history professor from Yale on his new podcast. Check it out!
I will! Thanks.
Yes! I do as well.
Like his wife Kate Shaw (Strict Scrutiny podcast) even better.
Chris Hayes, Michael Steele & Jen Psaki are great too - all 5.
Tack on Nicole Wallace! We love Michael Steele!
I don’t like Michael
Steele, but I do liked Jen Psaki and Chris Hayes and always like Laurence O’Donnell
How about all at once like the crew on faux news only with the truth about anything important
I too agree with Laurieanne, Rachel and Jon. Jon, you are spot on including Lawrence O'Donnell. I think he was the first big name news caster who called out Trump right after his first election when there were those who said, 'oh, he'll become 'presidential'. O'Donnell said, 'no, he won't. That isn't in him.'
Agreed! But don't forget Nicolle Wallace.
Yes my two favorites are Rachel and Lawrence. The best!
Both Maddow and O’Donnell speak the truth and have actually gotten more bold in their criticism. I often wonder how long this will last? Last night O’Donnell said Trump has “economic dementia” several times during his show. We would argue he also has a severe lack of empathy for others!
Yes, classic sociopath behaviour!
Thank you MTN for being my news source.
Same here. I quit watching it on TV in 2016 and have never returned to it.
Me too. Once convicted felon was on the world stage, it was time to change viewing habits. I stopped watching all network, local and cable news. I have not missed it at all. Thanks to Meidas for keeping me sane and providing unvarnished truth in news.
I still watch most networks (not faux entertainment news), but have the mute button ready for Cheeto, Miller, the blond bimbos, the puppy killer and the drunk at DOD. The button is starting to show a lot of wear. :)
I don’t get news anywhere else. I want to know that I am hearing the truth and not have to attempt to sift through all the bullshit
That's what Meidas touch does for us so well or I'd be confused all day
I admit to not really having the time to do it. And at the end of the day, I really don’t have enough energy.

Rachel and Lawrence are my favorites on MSNBC. They remain loyal to the Constitution.
No, she's not. She's out for #1.
Have a hard time with strong and intelligent women?
I think Christiane Amanpour and Katty Kay are wonderful. Maddow is an imposter.
You are out of your mind. About 2 years ago, Rachel wrote a book where she highlighted the meeting of the Nazis in 1930s at Madison Square Garden. It was the first time I became aware of that.

Noooo, James! She ain't faking it! she knows her stuff and backs it up!
She's smart and a patriotic American who stands for democracy
If she get’s to #1 well deserved!
She's a Stanford "C" student who majored in intramural softball.
Take your unsubtle gay bashing over to Fox. I hear they're giving out cookies and milk for very special boys.
@ Jane in NC -- Agree. You're spot on! We're with you regarding the OP. He probably thinks we can't tell he hates gays.
He's in the wrong community for his brand of BS. He needs to take a hike back over to Dumpty's Sewer Blog!
Yep. This isn't Donnie's Dollar Store social media site. Here, you get called out for your hate.
Yup. Called out and run out of town.
@Jane in NC … You got that right. A few of “them” have shown up here in MTN Country only to get sent the h*ll back to wherever they spawned from!
She's a Rhodes Scholar and has her PHD from Oxford.
Hahaha - thanks for that. I guess he thinks softball and Standford are interchangeable for Rhodes Scholar and Oxford.
Thanks for that wonderful insight. Get back to your Mom's basement. Be gone troll.
PhD from Oxford. Have u ever heard of Oxford?
you just can't take the real news can you? Your kind is not welcome here. You just try to sow hate and lies. I have reported you to Meidas Touch.
Awww...what a sad little boy troll you are with nothing better to do with your life than bash a woman who is FAR more intelligent than you.
Feeling insecure today? Have trouble with smart powerful women? Sad.
Rachel has a fingernail smarter than you. You homophobic, hateful liar.
You are a liar. She has a bachelors degree in public policy from Stanford and a PhD in political science from University of Oxford. I bet your degree is in political nonsense fro Trump University. What position did you play on the softball team there?
James!!!! Are you a MAGA boy? I'm getting suspicious of you now! She's outstanding!
James is as loser.....waiting for his fake Trump coin ......or trading card that will be used to wipe his ass in the future
She's a scholar! And she knows her value and strengths. She's good, James!
BS
Any concrete arguments, perhaps?
She poses as an intellectual, but is just a careerist. She confused the concept of an acronym with that of an anagram in a recent rant (the McMahon AI vs. A1 story; the sad part is that AI is an abbreviation.) She embarrassed herself playing parlor games with Jimmy Fallon (she's no Jane Lynch.) Stop idolizing someone who is just another ignorant American journalist.
So that's a no. No, you have no concrete arguments. You have some kind of hatred for her as a person, for mysterious reasons, and that's it. That's what I thought already ;-)
Listen to Olbermann's podcast to get a glimpse of the real Rachel.
I love him! Where is he?! I need him blasting everyday! But he left! Not gone...just not accessible...fast!~
The thread speaks for itself, contradict me all you like. That's a yes.
Uh... how to contradict a post with no concrete arguments in the first place... ? Any idea?
What makes you think I am obliged to refute a subjective thesis? Especially in this medium? Maddow is just another mediocre person dumb people think of as a smart person.
If you cannot even back up your own claim and admit it's entirely "subjective", then you're confirming my point: you're here to vent, not to have a rational, real debate (defined as: a conversation that allows us all to get closer to reality by studying objective, proven evidence and facts).

Still no arguments whatsoever, I see ;-)
HaHaHa! You're hilarious.
OK....I get it now~! You're jealous! That's OK! She's not supposed to be Jane Lynch! She is RACHEL MADDOW! Jane is a great actress. Rachel is a scholar. Whenever you thought you knew her, that's then! NOW she is AMAZING!

Stupid dishonest troll blocked.
Too bad she’s leaving the weekly news spot to promote her book. That will be a serious loss.
I agree!!!
Rachel exemplifies the fact that women are capable of being a Mighty Force, and can no longer be thought of, as pushovers 🥰
Agreed!
I really, really, really appreciate Rachel Maddow & Lawrence O’Donnell as well. And yes, they have called the devil the devil so to speak. A spade a spade. A con man a con. A fascist a fascist.

She is smart but she’s boring and not always honest. She’s also been pro-war.
Agreed!
Also Lawrence O'Donell
All your info is old. All you are doing is looking back and whining.
