Rachel just kicked ass.

She called out all lawyers and parts of the D o J to stand up to Krasnov’s UnConstitutional
bald faced push to be a Dictator.

She left no bout a-doubt it.

Edit this is history.

Holder called it all out and Rachel gave the platform to say what was needed.

Btw Holder has major game.

If not now then when? This all about Donald Trump taking the base of Constitutional freedoms.

We can’t wait to fight back, it will be too late.

Thank you Eric Holder for verifying my posts.
Chuck Schumer’s strategy of letting Krasnov burn everything down and then beat them in the next election will be too late.

Should have taken a stand and not voted for the CR.

7. Eric, call the orange convict and musky domestic enemies and call for their immediate arrest.

From reading the oath of office those that threaten the constitution are enemies. If they're citizens they're domestic enemies.

13. this will go nowhere for either trump or the lawyers

If you saw the segment before this one on the show, it was about how DOJ fired an attorney answering to a suit for telling the truth in court. We all know about that incident; there were threads posted about it here.

He answered the judge's question with "I don't know." He then went on to say he could not get a satisfactory answer from anyone in the trump "administration." What else could he do?

trump thinks he's got all these law firms who will go after this crazy crap he thinks up but in fact what will happen is the firms will be unable to lie for him, so they'll get "fired."

It's all a gigantic waste of time.

you'd have to go to Nielson's March ratings, which I don't think are published on the web yet.

for your second question, your search term would be name recognition and the person's name, but researchers only do this for political candidates, not tv anchors.

She is acknowledged as the voice of MSNBC, so it's probably a pretty wide name recognition within certain new show watchers.

18. what are you trying to get at?

There are about 260 million adults in the country.

So? The highest watched tv programming ever in the history of the U.S. is the Apollo moon landing and it got around 125 million. You will never, ever see programming that gets more than that, and even less so for regular programming as opposed to a special event like a moon landing. The more attention is split off with streaming, podcasts, computers (more people are on their computers now than watch TV), the less any one program is going to get.

I don't know what you're trying to get at but if you're saying few people know who she is, that's not even a reasonable point to make, given the nature of the viewing market.

21. The point is: relatively very few people watch her show

Given that her audience is so small, it's kind of a stretch to claim she kicked ass on any given program
