MS NOW’s Ali Velshi and historian Heather Cox Richardson joined forces on Saturday to hurl what might be the most incendiary and stupid hot take on the situation in Minneapolis to date. According to Richardson, ICE Agent Jonathan Ross shot Renee Nicole Good because she was a woman trying to de-escalate the situation.
What made Richardson’s comments even dumber is that Velshi wanted to present…
ABC, CBS, and NBC’s Friday evening news broadcasts managed to report on new video that emerged that afternoon of ICE agents telling Renee Nicole Good to get out of her car before being shot by Agent Jonathan Ross after she started to drive at him. ABC’s and NBC’s Saturday editions of Good Morning America and Today also managed to cover the critical detail, which left CBS Saturday Morning’s Ash-…
The trio of PBS News Hour host Geoff Bennett, MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart, and New York Times columnist David Brooks assembled on Friday to discuss the situation in Minneapolis. While Bennett failed in his moderating duties to mention new evidence that would seem to justify the ICE agent acting in self-defense, Capehart was still certain that he was in the wrong.

When The Briefing host Jen Psaki interviewed Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey on her Wednesday show about the ICE shooting involving an agent and an SUV driver, she repeated his accusation that the Trump administration’s defense of the agent was “BS,” and Frey himself echoed Psaki’s echo by doubling down on the “BS” language.
