What a great discussion. As far as I’m concerned you both need a regular platform on MSM and to get paid. 💰💰💰Your commentary and take on topics are far more interesting and real to regular people. Scott Jennings doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground. 🤮 Thanks WJ and Elie! Love you both so much ❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I don't even know these other people they mention. But I'm glad to have gotten to know Wajahat Ali, & of course, how could I not know Elie Mystal?

James you are living your life right ❤️😎👏🏼 Good on ya for not having to deal with those asshats. For fun though, if interested, look up Elie Mystal owning Scott Jennings on CNN. Priceless 🥰

MSNBC not only imposed a Muslim-ban as collective punishment for October 7, but it also exploits the unpaid labour of black people?

I'm less surprised than I wish I could be, but MSNBC has been overtly lying to the American public — for the purpose of inciting & prolonging a genocide — for about a year now, so there is no respect left to lose.

I haven't watched MSNBC since it attacked Mehdi Hasan for being honest (and the rest of the corporate mediascape was already dead to me by then).

Of COURSE the corporate media won't platform Elie Mystal the way he deserves to be platformed... for all of the reasons that make me LOVE HIM❣️

Corporate media does not negotiate with integritists!

I really enjoyed watching that conversation. A couple of great guys there!

So now I know why most of the political reporters & pundits I admire the most are overwhelmingly POC, even though there aren't that many of you in the business.

I questioned Scott Jennings from the get-go. He even smirks like Trump now.
