Heilemann: 'Nakedly Racist' Trump Blaming Virus on 'Nonwhite' People
On Wednesday's Deadline: White House on MSNBC, fill-in host John Heilemann joined in on the pettiness of some journalists claiming that it is "racist" for President Donald Trump to accurately acknowledge that the coronavirus infections first appeared in China by calling it the "Chinese virus."

Joy Reid: Unfit Trump Leading Is Like Having....Shatner Fly a Plane?
Just before midnight Eastern Tuesday into Wednesday, various MSNBC guests reminded all of us that, despite the unprecedently grim state of the world, the liberal media will still act terribly and ensure NewsBusters will continue to be flush with content.

Cruz BLASTS MSNBC’s Hayes’ Ignorant Green New Deal Tweet
MSNBC’s on-air talent just cannot seem to help themselves. MSNBC host of All In Chris Hayes sent out a flippant tweet in response to reports that the Trump administration will be asking Congress for “more than $800 billion in economic stimulus: $500 bil in payroll tax cut, $250 bil in Small Business Association loans, $58 billion for the airlines, and a smattering of other items." Hayes…
Really?! MSNBC’s Joy Reid Questions McConnell’s ‘Credibility’
