Meet the depressed 😂
It's time to report real news folks! No more BS .
This show is trashy, you turned the great news show for decades into the worst. Now it’s like I’m watching the view. Sad.
DY 1
MAGA has shown America it’s corruption it’s lies it’s hypocrisy yet they give them power.None of this makes any sense.
3060 days till the end of an error
The cia is causing all the damage in the world, the fbi is out of control. And auntie Linsey is not a representative of the republican movement. Throw out the trash. Save Americans.
Does it Kristen? Patel cannot take over on day one without confirmation. Why wouldn’t Biden appoint a new Director right now? Or give the title to the number 2 after Wray?
She is the worst host ever….. corporate media is a long way from what The Free Press is suppose to be
The people have spoken and we want free healthcare for all
Peggy Noonan? It’s time for her to retire as well. Ugh.
It seems 2 me the NBC/MSNBC NEWS INTENTIONALLY seek folks OPINIONS that agree with their reporting agenda. That's called being BIAS and if we want that, we would tune into FOX NEWS! 👀👀👀
Good reporters. Thank you for bringing unbiased news.
Lindsey don't care about the working class
Why is Israel bombing the stew out of Syria right now, Sen Graham?
Graham, you make me sick !
Is this going to be the Trump Paranoia US Government?
Noonan is an elite on the right. And I think she really has nothing new to say anymore.
Billionaires are also spending big to get rid of progressive Dems, too. Right, Nancy Pelosi?
Democrats keep losing every day
As for the reluctant Senators: Lead, Follow or GET OUT OF THE WAY.
The mainstream media is trying to sabotage our country
