@ms.now Honestly this musical chairs on your "shows" is confusing. Don't call them Anchors. Thats the term reserved for a consistent journalist who we can rely on when we go to that time and channel. Lets call them "personalities "...actors avoiding topical news...like fires, floods and poverty

@ms.now As a long time viewer... I dont know what's behind the scenes but you are harder to watch now. Its not so much the lineup change. Simone Sanders still belongs on The View, Micheal still hems an haws with reserved consternation, Katy Tur is still clueless about conditions outside NY,

Lawrence still pushes books no one will read or care to read, Ari is still a lawyer in drag,Joe still reeks of submission, Steph is still folding her hands in prayer hoping her millions dont go up in flames and thankfully Nichole reflects the demeanor and import of a real journalist. So whats off?

Reporting on menusha while the world burning, hypefocused on gossip and conjecture, failing to ask questions that get underneath whats at the root, guests whose circular responses go nowhere, (John Kasich?!!! Really? ) Ambulance chasing has always been around...Stop it! Trump won't change so..?

@ms.now To The Last Word Haalands sister is a rancher which compromised her position. Hundreds of thousands of petitions against wild horse slaughter went unanswered,totally ignored. She expanded grazing rights to the exclusion of bison giving sheep and cattle public lands

@zumaster.bsky.social

Environmental watchdogs like the Center for Western Priorities point out that the updated grazing rules loosen regulatory requirements for cattle ranchers while simultaneously cutting scientists and the general public out of the oversight process. Her "native" profile is mute

She might as well be a Republican. Her reign was to be a puppet of the multi- billion dollar ranching mob that runs the BLM. I'm part native and a Democrat but she's another Tulsi who will do nothing but sell NM out to the uranium miners and Doug Burgums oil gang of thieves.

@ms.now Get rid of Alex Witt! Nothing personal but she's your worst! Her main reply to data center conversation was "noise"? Not WATER? NOT ELECTRIC? Her Sunday show is a disaster every time. An actress,not a journalist. And I'm being kind here. Get rid of her"thank you for that"

@ms.now Sorry MSNOW but you lost me,a long time fan. CROOKED? The name is abhorrent. When a respected news outlet turns to a podcaster for "expert "analysis it's not only discredited but embarrassing. "Loveit or leave it?" How trite.

@ms.now To The Last Word You are the stupid one. Imagine Democrat from Hawaii and the Jones Act here and Puerto Rico have been costing us double shipping prices!!!!! While that might work for the States where cars,trucks and rail work but NOT to islands the USA took by force. Matson is a monopoly

@ms.now Al Sharpton flaked out when Roe said the Save Act will fail but the bill to stop PRIVATE EQUITY FIRMS from buying up housing that's tied to the bill will fail. Housing is THE biggest problem facing everyone!!!! But Tge $5million Sharpton just changed the subject. EAT TGE RICH

@ms.now Not a hint,a mention of California Primaries? Your NY/ East Coast centric myopic menusha makes me gag. Without California you'd all starve. And DNCs lack of focus might just loose them the whole state! Yet you ignore the entire west!! Quotes from NYTs, WaPo, Atlantic ? Smells like elitism

Is slavery a partisan ideology? It's a yes or no question. But Sec. Burgum would not answer. He refused to answer in a Senate hearing, yet has happily used "partisan ideology" as a pretext to scrub the history of slavery from our national parks. Unacceptable.
