Have got Margaret BRENNAN on my watch (as in "wary") list
Hitherto, in the past couple of years, she was fairly perfect in my book - would be tough on everybody but the MAGA guests can't handle even objective toughness and blatantly trip themselves up on their own such that they would come off looking worse to claim she was slanted Left.
A couple of weeks ago when the WEISS unpleasantry was sinking in there was buzz (I didn't see it) that BRENNAN had had a blatant spell of, as it was characterized on the 'net, falling in line or making a play to stay with WEISS.
The bits I saw today, she was soft on Repuke congresscritter Dan CRENSHAW, giving him doors to do the heavy lifting of blaming the Dems for the shutdown. CRENSHAW, by the bye, sounded very raspy and unrecovered like he had been at the KRASNOV party last night.
But unexpectedly to me, BRENNAN went explosive as never seen before on the Dem governor, crouching knarled to the guest, almost literally parroting CRENSHAW's talking points, shouting/accusing (paraphrase) "But the Dems have refused to vote for even CLEAN BILLS to end it, don't the Dems bear *some* responsibility?!"
*** There are tons of references since the ELLISON pere & son and the WEISS takeover castigating "CBS". I submit that we keep our eye on the ball and do the blaming on the ELLISONs and WEISS and the other root villains. The possessed outlets are not root and so far, while the first wave of targetted names are gone or going, there are still some conscientious ones left and shouldn't be blanketed.
