I tuned out of cable news on election night, & haven't returned. Nicole Wallace is a favorite, & I respect her integrity, but the sanewashing of Trump by so many on msnbc have led to a dictatorship. Sorry, I can't watch it any longer.
Can’t believe all of these people are bailing from all cable news. Stand and fight because if you don’t there’ll be nothing left to stand on! Be thankful Marc Elias is willing to do all for all.
Remind her that if Trump maintains he won 2020, he can’t legally be the president elect. It would be his 3rd term. I’d love to hear the answer to that one.
she’s one of the ones I miss on that channel, but I still can’t bring myself to watch news. I hope she doesn’t go the way of joe and mika. we need her voice!
I don't remember her calling for that. I do remember her having Claire McCaskill on her show who did that. I refuse to watch any show with McCaskill on it now.
It was Claire McCaskill who pushed to get Biden out; I have no more respect for her. Let’s not paint everyone w/the same brush: Nicholle Wallace has been consistent in her disdain for Trump & has been sounding the alarm about what we’re facing as a nation.
Almost every one of her guests were pushing for him to drop out, she had Tim Miller on all the time...and she didn't push back or disagree with any of them. She's as bad as the rest of them, imo, and I don't watch her anymore.
Yes, in your opinion. In MY opinion, I appreciate her calling attention to what Trump is doing and I will continue to watch her, Rachel and Lawrence. Stephanie Ruhle also kicks butt at times.
If the talk is about how we are about to lose it, and what can possibly be done to keep it, then it might be worthwhile. If its just about litigation, legislation and public protest and outrage after-the-fact, been there, done that.

This time can the Dems (Congress, really) pls properly go after Trump for violating the Emoluments clause? They let it slide last time. He's clearly planning to make money off the presidency, from foreign govts etc. Nail him for it.
Democracy allows for the possibility that voters will vote to end democracy. And that is what we did last month: Two-thirds of eligible voters voted against democracy. (Not to vote is to vote for the results whatever they end up to be.)
Obviously, I agree that we must start the fight to end authoritarian now rampant across the country. However, we are going up against a highly organized and billionaire and foreign funded tsunami. We can start by undermining Trump's red state support. The DNC could start but appears defeated.
I came out of news hibernation to watch you. We'll, not total hibernation. I still watch Rachel and Lawrence. I had to back off for my mental stability. Thank you for fighting for our civil rights.
I watch MSNBC starting with Nicole Wallace’s show and some of the other evening line up. It’s sad that the late afternoon/evening line up suffers because the morning shows are (and have been for years) Republican adjacent and insincere.
No sir. I will no longer turn into mainstream media regardless of who is on. Just keep my ear to the ground to figure out when to go down to the bunker.
Of course we watched! Deadline White House / @nicollewallace.bsky.social is the best.
Heard you begin by saying you posted on Bluesky, that you're in the process of leaving X.
Lucky for you, Nicole hasn't lost her vast audience ...your presentation was well detailed and understandable for us to react and at least let our senators know they have another horrible trump nominee coming their way
I watch you often. I really love your insight and comments, not to mention your dedication to defending voting rights wherever and whenever they are challenged.
So we're going to confront those threats by democrats handing the country to Trump on January 20th? They will go down in history as pathetic Neville Chamberlain loser morons. Following the rule book destroying the country and the world
@profmmurray.bsky.social
Any particular reason there's no longer any discussion of section 3 of the 14th amendment? You know the one that says Trump can't hold office. I didn't realize there had been a constitutional amendment eliminating that
I gave up on MSNBC and I love Nicolle Wallace ... MSNBC was the only news source I believed, even thou they have a knack of beating a story to death from segment host to segment host, Nicolle made it fun and exciting to watch, maybe one day I'll go back. Its not today.
On Nicolle’s show you stated this is not the time to sit out & suggested peeps volunteer. Exactly where shd we volunteer..at our local democratic party ofc?
While I respect what you are doing, I don’t do corporate “news media” anymore. That’s partly how this shit show started. Blame Morning Joe. Say hi to Nicolle for me.
Good call, and welcome to Blue Skies. I am on Threads, too, and find they both have positive things about them. I like that Blue Skies was started by the original Twitter guy, Jack.
I used to tape Nicole Wallace every single day and watch it when I got home. I haven’t watched the news since election day. But I do read everything you write Marc.

You’re definitely one of my favorite people to listen too! Thank you so much for all that you and your law firm does to uphold our democracy! Nicole Wallace is one of my favorites as well.
Your segment on Nicole Wallace's show needs to be a you tube video or a video that can be shared on FACEBOOK, too. So much great information that needs to be shared. I want the video!!
As a recommendation it would be impactful if all of the reputable and or independent news resources would stop appearing on the irrelevant, Fascists, Shitler propaganda machines. Please and thank you.
I would love to hear what you have to say but I’ve sworn of media. Their failure to hold the orange beast accountable and normalize his behavior were enough for me. I have watched since the election. I haven’t better in years!
Thank you for all your efforts on behalf of democracy but I no longer watch cable news since they helped put Cheato back into office and forced the best president that we have had in fifty years out of the race. #BlueCrew
I just watched Nicolle today for the first time since before the election. I quit watching when they were going after President Biden and telling him to drop out. I still wonder if he would have been able to win that election. He had a rough debate, but his track record is impressive.
Nicolle and Rachel were among the worst at demanding Biden drop out...Lawrence and Katie Phang are the only ones who didn't jump on that. Once a republican, always a republican.
This is my very 1st post since joining Bluesky. I belong to a women's group who meets every Saturday for bfast and chats. We know what "in it for the long haul" means and participate in local community issues that are important to our towns. I watch you and your hope filled chats are motivational!
Welcome! I’m in a similar group in our community and going local with our fight, supporting good candidates in school board and city races and vocalizing facts on issues.
Yore entirely right we need to keep fighting and how 2016 resistance wasn’t a total failure. I think we need a long post here about that. People just aren’t tuning into cable news now
I heard everything you said and the urgency with which you said it…then we got to the “what the fuck are everyday people supposed to do?” and there were no details. Let’s get specific:
Honestly, I have thought about contacting the campaign office I volunteered for & helped canvas with to get a follow up. Those people are paid campaign employees, so what’s their bosses saying? What’s the mindset on how to protect ourselves now that they made us “enemies from within” or of the state
Get involved with a letter or postcard writing group. Here is a group to check out. It's a start. My group does more through Indivisible and Swing Left. https://postcardstovoters.org/
It's a start. And as I said, Indivisible and Swing Left do other things. Check out your local chapters. Our Swing Left group posts things people can do such as call your representatives, etc. If I could go back and redo my education, I would become a lawyer and try to get a job with Marc Elias.

Should lawyers leave en masse or stay to help stem her excesses?
I can live without mainstream media.
Y’all are truly my people

FIRE Merrick Garland Today
Replace him with @marcelias.bsky.social
Marc will put in place roadblocks in the DOJ to protect voters from the future DOJ AND he will do the right thing regarding Jack Smith’s report
Disclaimer: I got this idea listening to Marc on Nicole’s show
Loved to watch here show but no one in the MSM media deserves our attention.
Many of us screamed for years, we were being loaded onto trains to the concentration camps and losing rights... and now look where we are.
We've had enough of their lies.
MSNBC is off the list. Mainstream is mainstream and Wallace will eventually fold too.
They all eventually fold while people flock from one to the other hear what they want to hear.
That’s not news, it’s just dangerous and deceptively repetitive.
Tune out.
Heard you begin by saying you posted on Bluesky, that you're in the process of leaving X.

Oh and I also agree with you about #Bluesky, it rocks!
Never give up 👍
Thank you.
That would be Awesome!
Nice segment btw.

I will help the opposition movement.
I will not retreat.
I will engage the fight.
I will pay attention.
I will not sit quietly.
What the fuck do we do?
