Joy Reid Strategy: Flip Trump Aides by Panicking with Possible Prison

CNN’s Toobin Sees ‘Abuse of Power,' Not 'Criminality'
CNN's chyron [see below, echoed by host John Berman at the end of the clip] makes the liberal network's conclusion clear: the latest revelations about Ukraine are "damning" for President Trump. And when Alisyn Camerota interviewed CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin this morning, she was toeing the CNN party line, suggesting that President Trump's actions constituted "bribery." But for whatever…
‘Unsubstantiated’ Is NY Times's Favorite Word When GOP Accuses Dems
The New York Times has used the term “unsubstantiated” with embarrassing regularity to talk about the charges of Biden family nepotism highlighted by President Trump. Virtually every Times story on the Biden allegations employs that adjective as a warning, signaling Republican partisanship. It’s quite the double standard. The sharp contrast was also demonstrated during the 2004 presidential…

Behar Begs Biden to Sue Trump: 'The Whole Thing Is a Lie!'
The View hosts were desperate to make the Joe/Hunter Biden Ukraine controversy go away on Thursday’s show. So much so, that Meghan McCain begged Biden to come out publicly and “explain it away.” On the other hand, her co-host Joy Behar, like the media, didn’t want to touch the topic, to avoid implicating Biden. She complained it was “too complicated.”

Maddow Assures 'View,' Unlike Fox, MSNBC's 'Not Running a Campaign'
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow came to The View midway through Thursday’s show to discuss the impeachment inquiry into President Trump, and her new book.

Morning Joe: Schiff in Trouble for Lying about Whistleblower Contact
On the Morning Joe of September 17th, Adam Schiff told Sam Stein that his committee: "have not spoken directly with the whistleblower." If fact, the whistleblower had contacted the committee and they spoke. On today's Morning Joe, Stein said of Schiff's misrepresentation, "I will say, this puts him in some trouble. He clearly wasn't being forthright in that interview with us a couple weeks ago.…

Clinton Calls Trump 'Illegitimate;' Blames Russia, Voter Suppression
Chelsea and Hillary Clinton were warmly welcomed on The View Wednesday to plug their new book, but spent nearly the entire interview talking about President Trump’s impeachment, and the 2016 election, instead. Throwing out any pretense of impartiality, the hosts of course began the show urging President Trump’s 2016 rival, to explain why he needs to be impeached.

Bidens Assure NBC That Bidens Have Done Nothing Wrong
During a laughable report on Wednesday’s Today show about corruption concerns swirling around Joe Biden and his son Hunter, NBC News White House correspondent Hallie Jackson cited Biden spokespersons seven different times to supposedly fact check and unsurprisingly dismiss any accusations of wrongdoing.
No, Seriously: NY Times Cheers Rachel Maddow-Themed Birthday Parties
If you happen to be drinking coffee and reading the print New York Times this coming Sunday, a word of warning: Put your drink down first or you might gag on the long, very long, profile of “oracle” Rachel Maddow. The online version by Amanda Hess trumpeted, “This Is the Moment Rachel Maddow Has Been Waiting For.”

Willie Geist Worries Trump Won't 'Go Quietly' If Impeached
http://info.mrc.org/stop-the-media-impeachment-crusadeDire talk of fascism, threats to democracy, constitutional crises, etc. are Morning Joe's everyday fare in the Age of Trump. But to the fevered proceedings, Willie Geist normally brings a welcome dose of equanimity. It was thus a shock to hear Willie of all people floating a dark scenario on today's show. He claimed that there's no one around…
CNN's Voice of Moral Authority on Trump's Twitter? Kamala Harris
When it comes to complaints of liberal bias in the news media, media personalities often, intentionally or otherwise, miss the point. We are not interested in leading any "hate movements" nor do we believe that President Trump immune from criticism, but what we do reject is what CNN Newsroom host Brooke Baldwin did her Tuesday show when she portrayed the battle between Trump versus the Democrats…

Giddy Colbert to Clinton: 'Time to Say, 'Lock Him Up, Lock Him Up!'
Who better to comment on the Democrats’ desperate attempt to impeach President Trump, than the Democrat who lost to him in the last election? Hillary Clinton was enthusiastically received on Stephen Colbert’s The Late Show Monday night, along with daughter, Chelsea, to discuss their new book, entitled The Book of Gutsy Women. Of course, the primary reason why Colbert wanted Clinton on his show…

Scarborough Accuses Trump of Calling for 'Civil War, Acts of Violence'
On Sunday, President Trump tweeted a quote from Pastor Robert Jeffress, who on Fox News had said that the removal of Trump from office would "cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation." Jeffress seemed to be envisioning a political "fracture," not an actual civil war. Joe Scarborough added fuel to the fire on Tuesday, interpreting Jeffress' statement and Trump's tweet of it in the most…
