A Wake to Remember: MSNBC Bids Farewell to Its Dying Audience

The Hammerstein Ballroom in midtown Manhattan hums with the sound of walkers, canes, and Medicare-approved stability sneakers shuffling on the brocade carpet. Several busloads worth of gray-haired radicals are milling about the historic auditorium. Some have shelled out thousands of dollars to be here for a chance to see their favorite MSNBC personalities denounce Donald Trump in person. Liquor drinks are extra. The exorbitantly-priced bar opens at 10:30 a.m. We're going to need it.

NBC’s Divorce From MSNBC Is Almost Final. Who Gets Custody of the Kids?

NBC News, that failing left-wing media company, celebrated a key milestone Monday in its ongoing divorce from MSNBC, the failing radical left-wing media company soon to be rebranded as MS NOW. As of Oct. 6, NBC News will have officially cut ties with the employees who accepted humiliating transfers to the MSNBC spinoff. All professional collaboration between the two entities will cease on Oct. 20, which means MSNBC will have to operate its own newsgathering operation for the first time since its inception in 1996.

Pete Buttigieg TOO GAY to be vice president according to Kamala Harris



Former Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris said the quiet part out loud when she wrote in her new book, "107 Days," that her first choice for a vice presidential candidate in the 2024 election was not Tim Walz — but Pete Buttigieg.

And not only did she admit that Walz was not her first choice, but that she didn’t pick Buttigieg as her running mate because he is gay.

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, who is gay, sat down with Harris for an interview and put her in the hot seat over her decision.

“I guess I’d ask you to just elaborate on that a little bit. It’s hard to hear with you running, as you know, you’re the first woman elected vice president, you’re a black woman and a South Asian woman elected to high office, very nearly elected president. To say that he couldn’t be on the ticket effectively because he was gay is hard to hear,” Maddow said, disappointed.


“No, no, no, that’s not what I said, that he couldn’t be on the ticket because he is gay,” Harris responded, before trying to explain herself.

“To be a black woman running for president of the United States and as a vice presidential running mate, a gay man, with the stakes being so high, it made me very sad, but I also realized it would be a real risk, no matter how, you know, I’ve been an advocate and an ally of the LGBT community my entire life,” she said.

BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler is floored.

“Imagine if this were a Republican saying what Kamala Harris just said. Imagine if a Republican went on cable news after having lost the presidential election,” Wheeler says.

“Imagine if a Republican said, ‘Actually, my first choice for vice presidential running mate, I decided against because he was gay.’ The left’s heads would explode. They would be screeching and screaming melting down like the wicked witch of the West, calling that Republican a bigot, a hateful homophobic bigot,” she continues.

And instead of admitting that she didn’t choose Buttigieg because he’s gay, she laid the blame at the feet of Americans who wouldn’t vote for him.

“Kamala Harris, her answer, she said she didn’t disqualify Pete Buttigieg because he’s gay, because she’s personally prejudiced. She disqualified — she decided not to choose him because he’s gay because you’re prejudiced,” Wheeler says.

“She didn’t have time to contend with the homophobic masses. She didn’t have time to re-educate the Christians, the terrible, hateful Christians who hate Pete Buttigieg because he’s gay,” she continues, adding, “She’s dripping with disdain for you, but she’s above board.”

Kamala Harris Touted Alabama Mayoral Candidate as a Democratic ‘Star.’ She Lost Her Race the Next Day.

The Democratic candidate for mayor in Mobile, Ala., whom former vice president Kamala Harris touted as a "star" during an MSNBC appearance this week, lost her mayoral race to her Republican challenger just one day after Harris’s praise.

Maddow TRAPS Kamala Harris with tough questions on live TV



Even MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow couldn’t save former Vice President Kamala Harris from herself during a recent interview where she asked her some questions about her latest book, “107 Days.”

“Madame Vice President, I have to ask you about the, I think the part of your book that has people most upset thus far, which is some of your writing about the decision around the president abandoning his re-election campaign, the timing there, and how it’s handled,” Maddow said to Harris.

“You say in part, page 46, ‘It’s Joe and Jill’s decision. We all said that like a mantra, as if we’d all been hypnotized. Was it grace, or was it recklessness? In retrospect, I think it was recklessness. The stakes were simply too high. This wasn’t a choice that should have been left to an individual’s ego, an individual’s ambition. It should have been more than a personal decision,’” Maddow continued.

“Whose decision should that have been? How should that decision have been made?” she then asked.


“So, when I write this," Harris began, as she appeared to struggle to find her words, "it’s because I realize that I have, and had, a certain responsibility that I should have followed through on, which is — and so when I talk about the recklessness, as much as anything I’m talking about myself."

“There was so much, as we know, at stake, and as I write, you know, where my head was at at the time is that it would be completely — it would come off as being completely self-serving,” she added.

“If you said to President Biden that you did not think he should run again?” Maddow asked.

“Yeah. Or even that he should question whether it’s a good idea,” Harris replied.

BlazeTV host Pat Gray is shocked that Harris so willingly gave up that information.

“Is that an admission that she knew he shouldn’t be running?” Gray asks, intrigued. “But she stayed quiet.”

“Kamala Harris,” executive producer Keith Malinak asks, pretending to press the former VP further, “who tweeted for Joe Biden, especially on that day he dropped out? Did they run the tweet by you first?”

Kamala Harris reveals the real reason she avoided a gay running mate: 'It would be a real risk'



Former Vice President Kamala Harris lamented the fact that she passed up on Pete Buttigieg as her running mate in the 2024 election, citing concerns that having a gay man on the ticket would have sunk her candidacy.

In a rare interview following her historic loss in November, Harris reflected on the choices she made during the 2024 campaign that may have led to her downfall. Although Harris said she was enthusiastic about Buttigieg as a contender, she ultimately decided against selecting the former transportation secretary because having a gay man on the same ticket as a black woman "would be a real risk."

'The stakes were so high.'

In Harris' new book "107 Days," the former vice president admitted that Buttigieg was her first choice and that he would have been an ideal running mate "if [she] were a straight man."

"To say that he couldn't be on the ticket, effectively, because he was gay, is hard to hear," MSNBC host Rachel Maddow told Harris.

Harris initially tried to deny that her choice was made based on Buttigieg's identity but rather because of the narrow window she had to make the crucial decision. Despite her attempt to soften the blow, Harris acknowledged that the stakes were "so high" that she chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) instead.

"No, no, no, that’s not what I said,” Harris responded.

“To be a black woman running for president of the United States and as a vice presidential running mate, a gay man, with the stakes being so high, it made me very sad, but I also realized it would be a real risk."

“It wasn’t about any prejudice on my part but that we had such a short period of time," Harris added. "And the stakes were so high. I think Pete is a phenomenal, phenomenal public servant. And I think America is and would be ready for that. But when I had to make that decision with two weeks to go, you know, and maybe I was being too cautious ... but that's the decision I made.”

Buttigieg later said he was "surprised" to see the excerpt of Harris' highly anticipated book, saying he believes in "giving Americans more credit."

“My experience in politics has been that the way that you earn trust with voters is based mostly on what they think you’re going to do for their lives, not on categories,” Buttigieg told Politico.

“You just have to go to voters with what you think you can do for them,” Buttigieg added. “Politics is about the results we can get for people and not about these other things.”
