Please get me out of this nightmare. Why in the world would @NBCNewsPR give platform to criminal KGB thug, Putin, who has committed some of the worst human rights atrocities and continues to attack US and the West? This is mind blowing

JUST ANNOUNCED: Russian President Putin sits down exclusively with @NBCNews @KeirSimmons from Moscow -- his first U.S. TV interview in nearly three years -- just days before he's set to meet with U.S. President Biden.

This is one of the reasons autocrats are gaining hold while democracies are in decline. Russia would never give Biden or any Western leader platform on their state media yet Western media runs towards the chance to help push propaganda and lies

Done will all talking heads, actually, but I did keep MSNBC on the lineup for Nicolle and Lawrence. The rest are horrid.
But not anymore. That theyre giving Putin a murderous thug a platform does it for me.
