Translation: Local faculty concerned over RWNJ-biased campus "think tank". Campus admins get pissy because that faculty is not being deferential enough (i.e. kissing ass).

@AlliFlowers Same. He has some good guests but it's really cringey to me when he's on a dead serious subject for 10 minutes and then ends it with something like "as T-Pain said, I don't wanna be a rude dude man." It ruins great points and also great songs.
@xinicit Throw them in the blender with some garlic, basil, and lemon juice, and make hummus. @LibertyForward1
#NBCUniversal Fire Ronna McDaniel or you're dead to your current viewers.

If she's in the building, she's damaging truth and journalism. NBCUniversal can't even let her scrub the toilets without her damaging democracy.
If #RonnaMcDaniel is on the payroll the damage is done.

@6G@mastodon.social 8-10 ET is another reason I’ll never see it. I’m still sleeping then. @DemocracyMattersALot @TonyStark @wbpeckham
@wbpeckham Yes! This, exactly! @6G@mastodon.social @DemocracyMattersALot @TonyStark
@6G @DemocracyMattersALot @TonyStark @AlliFlowers And, to season the point, I did not start watching Rachel Maddow because she was on MSNBC, I started watching MSNBC because they had Rachel Maddow. I will watch the good journalists develop good stories no matter what channel or network carries them. I will avoid the Q-anon conspiracy theorists, no matter what channel or network carries them.
@TonyStark I used to really like Melber, but he uses so many rap references I feel like I’ve been left out of an inside joke. Love Lawrence, but he’s past my bedtime. I used to love Velshi and Ruhle in the afternoon. And I’m with you on the weekends, Tony. Nothing new. @DemocracyMattersALot @6G@mastodon.social @wbpeckham
@DemocracyMattersALot Buahahahahaha!!!!!! @6G@mastodon.social @wbpeckham @TonyStark
@6G@mastodon.social So you are glued to Andrea Mitchell and Rona Romney McDaniel? @wbpeckham @DemocracyMattersALot @TonyStark
This story demonstrates why the right wing’s mantra of ever “smaller government” is lethal. It’s the role of government to make sure products and services are safe.
When the Trump administration came into power, it shrunk the EPA.
Both parties are not the same, nor are they only marginally different or whatever nonsense some enjoy spouting out. #ElectDemocrats
EPA bans asbestos, a deadly carcinogen still in use decades after a partial ban was enacted-

SUSPECT INTERROGATED
TV editor Simonyan published a video showing a suspect, a young bearded man, being interrogated aggressively by a roadside, replying in heavily accented Russian to a series of barked questions. He said he’d flown from Turkey Mar4 & received instructions from unknown people via Telegram to carry out the attack in exchange for money.

@DemocracyMattersALot MSNBC is dead to me. @TonyStark
My thanks to the NBC execs who have hired failed RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel as a political commentator on MSNBC. At last I can unglue myself from the channel and perhaps read a book, do a crossword puzzle, take a walk. I'm finding that the fear of Ronna suddenly showing up on my TV is actually quite liberating.
