[See NewsBusters for more.] MSNBC's Friday night edition of The 11th Hour marked the passing of President Biden's COVID package by hailing it as a "Rooseveltian" and "Johnsonian" achievement. Which, from the perspective of historian Michael Beschloss, was not just a good thing on a practical level, but necessary on a larger level because if Biden fails, then democracy itself is danger of falling to conspiracy theorists.

Host Brian Williams referenced Biden's Rose Garden signing ceremony when he inquired of Beschloss, "Michael, the president quoted FDR today. This has been called a Rooseveltian achievement, Johnsonian achievement. What do you call it?"
