"The Bottom Line: An MSNBC guest accused Trump of running a “crime family” from the White House and using urban crime concerns to distract from alleged corruption. These remarks were made without supporting evidence, raising questions about the ethics of broadcasting such claims. The exchange reflects the ongoing use of sensational political rhetoric on cable news, where accusation often outweighs verification."
"Donald Trump’s critics on MSNBC are pushing a new narrative, accusing him of operating a “crime family” from the White House and using public safety concerns to distract from alleged corruption. The exchange featured heated rhetoric but no presented evidence.
Key Facts:
- MSNBC’s Anand Giridharadas accused Donald Trump of leading a “crime family” from the White House.
- He claimed Trump was “running crypto schemes” and enriching “billionaire cronies.”
- Giridharadas alleged Trump uses crime concerns in cities like D.C., Chicago, and New York to deflect from larger wrongdoing.
- The discussion aired during “Morning Joe” with host Joe Scarborough.
The Rest of The Story: During a “Morning Joe” segment, Joe Scarborough and Anand Giridharadas discussed urban crime and public safety. Scarborough suggested that Americans can be concerned about multiple issues at once, including crime, the environment, and political integrity.
"Giridharadas agreed on the importance of public safety but quickly pivoted to accuse Trump of exploiting crime fears. He asserted Trump is “weaponizing” safety concerns in major cities, particularly D.C., Chicago, and New York, for political gain." . . . More...
'Beyond sick': MS NOW correspondent blasted for disgusting comments on National Guard shooting
‘Beyond sick’: Sky News Australia. . . MS NOW correspondent Ken Dilanian has been slammed over his comments following the shooting of two National Guard troops.
"On Wednesday, two National Guard troops were shot in Washington, DC, with both currently in critical condition and the shooter in custody.
"During MS NOW’s coverage of the shooting, Dilanian spoke about the environment in the US capital since the National Guard’s deployment.
"The correspondent observed that the guard’s presence in DC has been normalised and not seen as controversial, as when they were first deployed.
“ 'Of course, you know, there's so much controversy happening in the United States right now with ICE, who are also wearing uniforms and wearing masks,” he said.
“ 'And so there's — you don't know — people walking around with uniforms in an American city. There are some Americans that might object to that. And so, apparently, this shooting has happened.” . . .
Trump reveals his character . . . "He's grown in office too. The counter puncher prone to fire off unguided mean tweets has, with the benefit of age and experience, remained a counter puncher, but a more restrained tweeter. Having survived multiple assassination attempts has doubtless reminded him of his mortality, God’s apparent plan for him, and has noticeably humbled him. Those with defective character would have seen that as a sign of their invulnerability. Trump seems to have understood the opposite.
"Many don’t know how many acts of kindness Trump and his family regularly do. They don’t publicize them, nor do they have to do them. " . . .
