  1. “I work so hard for the party across the country,” #JeaninePirro now the #USattorney for #DC, told #RonnaMcDaniel in the message, acc/to newly #unredacted #court documents made public Tues in filings by the voting technology company #Smartmatic, which in 2021 filed a $2.7B #defamation lawsuit against #Fox over its #2020election #lies. “I’m the Number 1 watched show on all news cable all weekend. I work so hard for the President & party.”

  2. #Peltz, who was 81 at the time & made his fortune via junk bonds & leveraged buyouts, had gathered some traditional high rollers, including the hedge-fund manager #JohnPaulson & the Las Vegas casino #tycoon #SteveWynn, as well as #RonnaMcDaniel, then the chair of the #RNC. He had also invited #ElonMusk.

  3. Will the media learn the right lesson from the Ronna McDaniel debacle?

    Sadly, #MSNBC #management couched the decision to drop #Ronna #McDaniel in a blizzard of corporate speak.

    (“No organization, particularly a newsroom, can succeed unless it is cohesive and aligned … It has become clear that this appointment undermines that goal.”)

    Funny — the journalists who spoke up said McDaniel’s departure was required to
    🔸preserve their journalistic mission and the network’s credibility,
    🔸not out of any need for “alignment.”

    We can only hope that NBC and other news organizations take away something more than “don’t hire a MAGA mouthpiece”

    A few ideas:
    
• Create a #mission #statement that affirms your goals are telling the #truth and defending #democracy, which protects the First Amendment — not fake balance.
• #Stop #pretending four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump and his movement are presenting #alternative#policies” as a normal party would. They are fighting for an alternate system: authoritarianism.
• Politicians’ outright #lies must be identified, not just labeled as their “response” or “position.”
• Instead of obsessing over #polls, devote extensive coverage to #analyzing the Heritage Foundation’s “#Project2025” and Trump’s #fascist #agenda. Feature #historians and political #scientists during news segments (not only on panels) to put Trump’s views and statements in context.
• #Don’t excerpt a few words from a Trump rally or speech, dub it an “argument” and #ignore his mental short-circuits and #deteriorating #intellect.

  4. That might be just the beginning of the fallout following yesterday’s announcement from #NBCUniversal News Group Chair #CesarConde that the deal, first announced on Fri, would be canceled. #RonnaMcDaniel spoke yesterday w/Bryan Freedman, renowned lawyer to the estranged cable-news stars, to discuss #legal options even beyond recouping the dollar value of her #contract.

  5. I'm still trying to understand how NBC's Chief Political Analyst, Chuck Todd, the guy who'd have to manage Ronna McDaniel's engagements, wasn't given even the SLIGHTEST heads up that NBC President & News Group Chairman, #CesarConde was hiring #RonnaMcDaniel.

    #ChuckTodd was clearly outraged & opened both barrels on live TV. He didn't care who he pissed off. You didn't have to look past his flared nostrils to see his disgust & fury.

    How arrogant & disconnected is the leadership at #NBC?

  6. So in summary:

    NBCUniversal News Group President Cesar Conde:
    ☑️ New MAGA viewership!
    ☑️ Access to Republican contacts!
    ☑️ Insider's insights into the GOP!
    ☑️ Greater numbers to draw advertisers!
    ☑️ Generate more outrage clickbait!

    NBC Journalists, Anchors & Reporters:
    ❌ Dishonorable, Machiavellian ethics-for-sale liar who repeatedly discredited the truth & spread disinformation

    #nbc #msnbc #CesarConde #ronnamcdaniel

  7. The announcement came in a memo from #NBCUniversal #News Group Chair #CesarConde, who said he had listened to “the legitimate concerns” of many network employees. “No organization, particularly a newsroom, can succeed unless it is cohesive & aligned,” he wrote. “Over the last few days, it has become clear that this appointment undermines that goal."
    
Conde also apologized to employees “who felt we let them down” & took “full responsibility” for the hiring.

  8. Their comments come a day after #ChuckTodd pilloried #NBC execs moments after #RonnaMcDaniel’s 1st network appearance, an interview w/ #KristenWelker on “Meet the Press.”

    “I think our bosses owe you an apology for putting you in this situation,” Todd told Welker. “There’s a reason why there’s a lot of #journalists at #NBCNews uncomfortable w/this, because many of our professional dealings w/the #RNC over the last 6 yrs have been met w/ #gaslighting, have been met w/ #CharacterAssassination.”

  9. #RonnaMcDaniel should be ashamed of herself for this laughable #interview. You can tell she's a moron who doesn't understand how anything works from her stammering about Hillary Clinton's "BleachBit server", which isn't a thing. She thought she was going to go on camera and just spew objective nonsense because that's how it works in right-wing media, but #KaitlinCollins, fortunately, didn't let her get away with the #misinformation, and outright #lies.

  10. #RonnaMcDaniel joins #SteveBannon on his War Room show to outline specific details regarding her claims that fellow @RNC Chair nominee #HarmeetDhillon is spreading false information about her. McDaniel is hesitant to give specifics to Bannon.

    Congratulations Ronna Romney-McDaniel. How hard could it be? #gop #danapoint #ronnamcdaniel

  12. Backstabbing is getting into high gear in the GOP:

    Isaac Stanley-Becker: Charlie Kirk delivers a warning to the RNC, and sparks a backlash: Kirk’s Turning Point Action debuted an initiative designed to pick off #GOP committee members insufficiently attentive to the ‘grassroots voice’
