Millions take to the streets across the country in the 3rd No Kings protest. Meet the Press host Kristen Welker tells viewers "tens of thousands" protested, and waited until the final 5 minutes of the program to talk about it (which was cut short by the final commercial break.)
#MeetTheRepublicans waited until THE FINAL FIVE MINUTES to talk about THE LARGEST POLITICAL PROTEST IN AMERICAN HISTORY. 🤨 #MtP
RE: mastodon.social/@MugsysRapSheet/11630684...
Sen Lankford is on #MeetTheRepublicans right now talking about sending "Boots on the Ground" to re-open the #StraitOfHormuz.
"If this becomes a protracted war, then yes [I support troops on the ground] to save American lives."
Welker notes at the start of #MeetTheRepublicans:
"TENS OF THOUSANDS take to the streets to protest President T****."
Tens of thousands? Try MILLIONS, Kristen. 🤬
CUBAN DEPUTY FOREIGN MINISTER CARLOS FERNANDEZ DE COSSIO.
Welker on #MeetTheRepublicans tells #Cuba's Foreign Minister that #OrangeHitler says #Cuba's economy is "on the verge of collapse on it's own."
He points out it's hardly occurring "on it's own" when America is blocking energy & trade from entering Cuba.
"If […]

Photo of a dozen completely blacked out pages from Friday's partial release of the Epstein Files.
Yeah, sure DAG Todd #Blanche. You're just redacting *names* to protect the "innocent victims". Bull$#!+. 😡

NBC's Kristin Welker interviews CA Gov Gavin Newsom.
#Newsom had a good interview on #MeetTheRepublicans.
First half, he did an excellent job of defending #Prop50, noting how the #GOP "knows they are losing or else they wouldn't be working so hard to rig the game".
The 2nd half of the interview (after the […]

NBC's Kristen Welker interviews Senator Cory Booker.
Since when has it become the obligation of Democrats to save Republicans from themselves? 🤬
#Welker on #MeetTheRepublicans yesterday asked Cory Booker if he's okay with #DEMOCRATS "shutting down the gov't" if there isn't a budget deal by the end of the month […]

ICE ad claiming they are going after "The worst of the worst."
ICE is getting immigrant's cases tossed, and then arresting them as they leave the courthouse.
#ICE ran an ad during #FoxnewsSunday and #MeetTheRepublicans defending/bragging about the job they are doing, which included this claim:
They "are going after The Worst of The Worst".
No they're not. They're going after the low-hanging fruit of #migrant […]

It appears I won't be Live Blogging #MtP today.
On a #4thOfJuly weekend that saw a lawless president sign the most massive sweeping destructive bill in U.S. history that will throw MILLIONS off their healthcare, #MeetTheRepublicans decided to dedicate their […]

JV Vance on #MeetTheRepublicans said this morning: "The difference between this Administration and Administrations over the past 25 years (which would include T****'s own first term, Dumbass) is that we had very dumb presidents, and now we have a president who knows how to actually accomplish […]
Trump's (deliberately deceptively named) "One Big Beautiful (Budget) Bill" slashes $792 Billion from Medicaid to pay for a $2.2T tax cut for Billionaires.
#OneBigBeautifulBill? For who???
Billionaires get a massive $2.2T tax cut.
The Pentagon gets more money.
More money to close the border.
THE ONLY CUT? More than 3/4 of a TRILLION from #medicaid

While #Fox (and now #MeetTheRepublicans) are spending a significant portion of their shows today hyping an audio recording of #Biden in 2023 where he's "confused" over whether 2017 was the year #DementiaDon was "elected" vs "took office", I want everyone to do back and watch the FOUR MINUTE […]
Entire episode: "My EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with President Trump." Like it's a coup to obtain an interview with the most unbelievably narcissistic man on the planet.
#MeetTheRepublicans is nothing but #Welker's (disastrous) interview of #TheOrangeMenace where she let him lie repeatedly with minimal push back, and actually say #insane things like "military force to take #Canada is a possibility" & "all the good parts are […]

LE | “Vladimir Putin is the real aggressor in this war, and he is attempting an unjustified takeover of a sovereign, democratic country. The United States cannot recognize Putin’s claims or we risk establishing, a dangerous precedent for other authoritarian regimes, like the Chinese Communist Party, to imitate.” - September 22, 2022
#SundayShowdown
#Welker might be a RW stooge who tends to let #Republicans off the hook FAR to easily, but on those rare moments we ACTUALLY get some push-back, I'm not above offering kudos.
Sec of State "Lit'l #Marco" went on #MeetTheRepublicans to defend […]

Once again, it's time for my weekly #SundayShowdown (live blogging the top 4 commercial broadcast news shows: MSNBC, #FoxnewsSunday, #MeetTheRepublicans, and ABC's #ThisWeek.
My special task this morning: Be on the lookout for as many examples of #CreepingFascism as I can find. 😐
I returned to #MeetTheRepublicans to catch #Bernie.
Welker asked him if #Zelesky was disrespectful of T**** (not her exact words) and he said, Absolutely Not, pointing out how "we've always stood of the side of the victim & fought the aggressor.
Welker quickly dropped the subject.
Then asked […]

Another episode of #MeetTheRepublicans? 😡
I'll return when Sen. #Sanders is on (the closest they get to having on a #Democrat today.) 🤦♂️
Did EVEN ONE #SundayShow this morning make ANY mention of this? (Not even fellow NBC program #MeetTheRepublicans mentioned it... natch.)

REMEMBER WHEN...
...during a pre-election interview with Kristen Welker, #TheOrangeMenace denied he had "an #EnemiesList" and would not waste his time going after his enemies b/c he "had too much important 'stuff' to do"?
Where's THAT discussion, Kristen? […]

NOT. ONE. DEMOCRAT.
Invited to be on #MeetTheRepublicans this morning to discuss T****/Musk's wildly #illegal elimination of government agencies, and T****'s announcement of his planned takeover of #Gaza (or the #PanamaCanal or #Greenland.) 🤬
The interview of #DonTheCon on #MeetTheRepublicans was SO delusional & disconnected from reality, I could literally spend HOURS debunking it.
He STILL believes the 2020 Election was "stolen" and will continue to investigate it.
But when #Welker points out […]

I HAD TO TURN OFF #MeetTheRepublicans.
They invited on (AGAIN) Rep Bill Whittaker (R-TN) to carry T****'s water.
He praised the ASININE pick of #KashPatel to head the FBI with the goal of destroying it, and when asked about #tariffs, it is BRUTALLY clear he thinks the *exporters* (not […]
