Michael Beschloss

On MSNBC's Velshi, fill-in host and turncoat Republican Michael Steele brought on pseudo-historian Michael Beschloss to give his take on the current Republican Party and the looming presidential campaign. As per usual, Beschloss took the segment off the rails and provided the most unhinged and conspiratorial take imaginable while disguising it as a historical analysis. 

On Monday night, MSNBC's The ReidOut continued an all-day theme in the leftist media of swooning over President Biden's trip to Ukraine, which he took despite failing to pay a visit to his own citizens suffering in the working-class town…

The following are just some of the most absurd (post-SOTU) outbursts from liberal journos, as caught by the NewsBusters staff.

During the midnight hour of MSNBC’s State of the Union address coverage, pseudo-historian Michael Beschloss made a fool of himself during his analysis of Biden’s speech. After being asked by MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle what he thought of Biden’s speech, Beschloss declared Biden to be “Mr. Smooth.” Biden is many things, but everyone can agree that smooth isn’t one of the adjectives most Americans…

You might call it a media backfire. A big one.

Today we present the WORST OF 2022: The GOP Will End Democracy Award.

MSNBC used to be the network that demanded that people be allowed to dissent from a government line, certainly when the president was Trump or George W. Bush. But when Ukraine's president Wlodomyr Zelensky came to speak to Congress, anyone who didn't treat him as the second coming of Winston Churchill was a foul individual. On Wednesday night's The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell,…

It was a good week for liberals, which means according to MSNBC logic it was a good week for democracy itself. On Friday’s installment of The 11th Hour guest host Alicia Menendez rejoiced over Raphael Warnock’s win, Donald Trump’s woes, and the passage of the same-sex marriage bill. Beschloss also got in a tortured analogy when condemning critics of the Brittney Griner-Viktor Bout…

Reacting to President Joe Biden's Wednesday speech, NBC News historian Michael Beschloss later that night gave a cartoonish warning about the dangers of Republicans winning next week's election. He fretted that "our children" might be killed as a result, and that there might no longer be the freedom for historians to write honestly about current events.

On Morning Joe, Michael Steele, the former RNC Chairman turned member of the disgraced Lincoln Project, begs people to vote Democrat in the midterms. Liberal historian Michael Beschloss claims that Donald Trump was "itching" to declare martial law, and the if voters let such people back into power, "it's our fault."

President Joe Biden desperately needs political resuscitation and his leftist buddies in the press have spent the last few weeks bucking him up. Most recently they praised his September 1 address as they compared him to Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War and FDR during WWII — this of course casts the GOP in the role of racist Confederates and Nazis. The following are just some of…

NewsBusters Executive Editor Tim Graham discussed President Biden's primetime speech decrying 'MAGA Republicans' endangering democracy on Friday's Fox News at Night. 

Doing the dirty work of Joe Biden, MSNBC vilified half the country on three separate shows, comparing the Democrat to Abraham Lincoln’s fight to save the union or Franklin Roosevelt’s rhetorical fight in 1940 against fascism. NBC historian Michael Beschloss on Thursday night and Friday morning linked political disputes in 2022 to the most perilous moments of 19th and 20th century: “Joe Biden…

It was anti-Trump melodrama to the max on Jonathan Capehart's MSNBC show on Sunday. Michael Beschloss, one of the historians who recently met with Biden, at one point looked directly into the camera and beseeched the viewers: "vote as if your life depends on it. Because it might." Then, a panicky Capehart asked Beschloss: "are we going to survive this?" Answered Beschloss: "I don't know."
