MSNBC Live host Brian Williams could hardly contain his enthusiasm on Wednesday as former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates testified in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee about the FBI's probe of Michael Flynn.

MSNBC's Brian Williams was joined by author and professor Timothy Snyder on Friday night where Williams used his guest's 2017 book On Tyranny to argue that the United States under President Trump is slipping into authoritarianism. The proof? Trump-named towers, military parades and federal law enforcement in Portland.

Several times this week, MSNBC host Brian Williams has used his primetime show to hype Twitter comments by MSNBC contributor Steve Schmidt in which the bitter former Republican slammed federal agents in Portland as "jackbooted thugs" and "stormtroopers." In 1995, the NRA was trashed for using the phrase "jackbooted thugs" in a fundraising letter. The script has flipped.

On Monday's The 11th Hour show, MSNBC host Brian Williams devoted a segment to letting liberal New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof cheer for the U.S. to embrace more European-style socialism as he looked for a silver lining in the country's current problems with the economy, race relations and the pandemic.

On Friday's The 11th Hour show, MSNBC host Brian Williams pushed the liberal trope that being against crime is somehow racist as he hyped an anti-Donald Trump ad that likens the President to former segregationist Alabama Democratic Governor George Wallace, using clips of both men calling for "law and order."

For almost two months in his Fourth Watch newsletter, the indispensable Steve Krakauer has been chronicling the strange case of MSNBC/NBC medical and science contributor Joseph Fair, who had claimed in May that he not only contracted the virus, but was hospitalized. Even worse yet, he surmised he contracted it through his eyes on a flight. But as Krakauer’s reporting showed, it was all a lie…

On MSNBC, Brian Williams, after claiming that the government always mentions co-morbidities when discussing COVID-19 deaths among black Americans, wonders: "am I alone in hearing at least a whiff of victim-shaming?"

The disgraced Brian Williams, who famously lost his NBC Nightly News anchoring job for repeated lies, on Monday wondered when Republicans will finally have “had enough” of Trump. Williams sputtered about a GOP break: “The question that occurs to me is, when will we know? When will we see that? When will men and women with the letter R after their names on ballots in November” break…

In the aftermath of President Donald Trump declaring Thursday night on Fox News Channel that he would take action against rioters who are tearing down statues, MSNBC anchors Brian Williams and Chris Jansing both fretted over his words, and did not clarify that his comments were aimed at violent protesters.

Over the past few days, several MSNBC anchors have shown substantially more interest in giving attention to the claim that someone used a noose to target NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace with a hate crime, but little to no interest in updating viewers when it turned out to be a false alarm.

On Friday night’s episode of The 11^th Hour, MSNBC host Brian Williams and NBC News National Security Analyst Jeremy Bash continued to push the 2016 Russian interference conspiracy theory against President Trump.

On Friday afternoon, MSNBC repeatedly gushed over Washington D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser ordering city workers to paint the words “Black Lives Matter” in bright yellow letters down 16th Street leading up to the White House. The left-wing cable channel hailed the political stunt as “a big yellow middle finger to the White House” and the newest “monument” in the nation’s capital.

​If there was such a thing as MSNBC's Law it would state that all things are to the benefit of Russia and President Trump is at least somewhat responsible. The 11th Hour host Brian Williams and former FBI Assistant Director and current MSNBC analyst Frank Figliuzzi illustrated this on Friday night when they theorized that Russia is benefiting from both riots across the country, the…

Where's the Rewind on your remote?  On MSNBC on Friday afternoon, anchorman Brian Williams actually criticized the Governor of Minnesota and the Mayor of Minneapolis, Democrats both, for their inaction last night in the face of the riots.
