1. No longer shocking to me.

Haven't watched her since October 2023, for the same reason. She used to be one of my favourites and yes it WAS shocking at the time. It felt like a betrayal of what I thought she stood for.

2. Wait. You post a show whose host calls Maddow "pure propaganda"?

What she says is factually incorrect about Maddow knowing why the felon attacked Iran. Maddow herself says the opposite -- that any fact-based reason he and his SecDef henchman attacked isn't clear at all. (Maddow doesn't mention this but I myself remember at the start when the felon said he'd noticed that most ME attacks went back through Hamas/Hezbollah proxies to Iran. )

This show, today, criticizes Maddow for what she said over two weeks ago, back on Mar 1, the day after trump attacked Iran. This war has been fluid since Day One. These two hosts and the putdown posts that agree with them about Maddow are very LATE criticisms of Maddow. Being and presented two weeks late they're also unfair.
Maddow is every bit as much a Democrat as Krystal Ball. Yet Ball is opportunistically divisive here, and at this point, her cheap 20-20 hindsight criticism of Maddow is worth nothing.

Why you'd post something by anyone who criticizes a smart, wide ranging Democratic host like Maddow makes no sense.

What she says is factually incorrect about Maddow knowing why the felon attacked Iran. As of last night, on MSNOW, Maddow herself said the opposite -- that any fact-based reason trump and his SecDef henchman gave for their attack isn't clear at all. (Maddow didn't mention this but I myself remember at the start when NYT reported that the felon said he'd noticed that most ME attacks went back through Hamas/Hezbollah proxies to Iran, so he decided to do Israel a favor and attack. )
