Mitchell is awful. I kept MSNBC on mute until the hearing began. Turned it off immediately after.

I'll check in with Rachel, Joy, Lawrence etc. later today.

I haven't paid any attention to her for a very long time and don't feel I've missed anything.
It's frustrating to see her continue to waste that time slot but I always find somewhere else to go. I feel your pain.

who she married makes a difference at this point. She's an adequate newsreader, but live segments are unbearable. Sorry if you think it was sexist. I don't, and I'm a feminist from way back.

And, full disclosure, I had a senior moment and forgot her name when I posted this.
