After Senator Katie Britt’s Republican response, PBS turned to Jonathan Capehart to dismiss it, and he did: “After watching senator britt, I am just sitting here thinking what in the Elle Woods was that?”
That’s his catty reference to the Legally Blonde films with Reese Witherspoon as a ditzy blonde lawyer. Capehart trash-talked it next to Biden’s screamfest: “If you have to put the State of…
PBS congressional reporter Lisa Desjardins spoke from her cell phone with her personal opinion: “You may have seen this on the screen. House Republicans were not listening to that speech, by and large. Not just out of defiance, they just seemed not to be paying attention. They were almost only here physically, almost bordering on a disrespectful way, and is something I've never seen to this…
CNN analyst Van Jones was upset at Nikki Haley's withdrawal from the presidential race. How does Biden talk to her donors? "If you want to a year from now, watch Russian tanks rolling through Europe, then, you know, endorse Donald Trump and get on that bandwagon.

PBS NewsHour co-anchor Amna Nawaz worried out loud that Biden was leaning toward 'very harsh' immigration policies -- Trump-like policies -- and that will hurt with "core groups" that got him elected in 2020. But New York Times columnist David Brooks gently disagreed, that Biden doesn't want a "bright line" on the border, since Trump is beating him by 39 points on immigration right now.
Anchor David Muir opened: “As our Pierre Thomas tonight asks Republicans in the House, how do you move forward if the main informant was lying?”
In the 2 pm hour of CNN News Central on Monday, their Democrat commentator Maria Cardona came unglued about how fiendishly Donald Trump supports Russian strongman Vladimir Putin. As in, maybe he said to Putin, “you go bro, I wish I could do that here!”
