so glad that Medhi Hasan filled in for Chris. Wish Medhi would get a prime time spot but he's a truth teller who gets it.

I really hate when Nicolle is gone.
And don’t like only having Rachel on Mondays.
But MSNBC does have a strong bench.

Not too crazy about most of the rest of them. Mehdi Hassan in particular is awfully negative.

the Black guy who was on in Chris's place the other night. Of course I'm a little out of touch lately. I get most of my politics here.
