MTP NOW June 17 — Gov. Jared Polis, Amb. Bill Taylor, Pete Williams on the Watergate break-in at 50
Doesn’t matter who is president next, things will never change, because the problem, is the system, the government is being run by the military contractors, and business oligarchs….
The elephant in the room is China- the key to improving.the economy is resuming full trading with China, stopping the failed trade wars, lifting the tariffs, canceling the sanctions, and stopping the Ukraine war….let Ukraine go….it is already lost….
Usa! usa!………haven’t heard that in a long while…
All the good stats just don’t make sense….high stock market, low unemployment, but inflation so high, economy imploding, and people are on edge, and desperate, mad, too
The USA.and EU wanted to destroy the Russian economy and currency, but guess what, the Ruble is the best performing currency, and the Russian economy is doing very well, the US and EU’s are all gripped with uncontrolled inflation….recession, depression, stagflation, shrinkflation….oh lord..
You are kidding, right?
Nothing more humiliating, than people telling an incumbent, to NOT run……..Biden should just announce he is not running, after all, he is over age, and avoid the further humiliation.
It is not a position that is easy to just give up. There is a reason why it was ensured in the Constitution.

Obviously a man in a female body..
I feel so so sorry for her/him=unit..

The Governor of Colorado is correct in what he is saying, However;
It Is A FELONY to say Anything, considered true or not, disparaging about the Colorado Beef Industry or any part of it … Punishable by a prison term of 5 years.
Outside of Colorado you can say anything you want, 1st Ammendment guarantees that. In Colorado if you talk about the cancer causing properties of Beef –
YOU GO TO PRISON. That is the law STILL under this Governor.
They need to drive Russia out of Ukraine to restore their borders prior to invasions and then declare them part of NATO. Let Putin throw his verbal tantrums afterwards. Without oil leverage he has no power.
No country can become a NATO member if it has a war on its horizon. And sadly for Ukraine, that is how it has always been since breaking from Russia.
Well, why not say it’s a hoax – simply get some Sharpie pens and alter the figures!
I didn’t vote for him, but I believe his presidency was hit with multiple crisis’s which Biden is handling with wisdom and calm. I was sick of having Trump in my living room everyday, all day, and always anxious about our world in peril. I feel now, yes we have challenges, but our country will deal with them. I hope soon we can focus on climate change, food and shelter security, school debt, voting and family choice rights, and gun safety.
He’s caused the crisis . Are you delusional?
Why is Chuck Todd still employed-he is egregiously annoying. I don’t know any regular msnbc viewers who can stomach his failure to properly question republicans and to drum up anti democrats crap.
It’s just a swollen sweat gland…try informing uz all
COVID may break us yet.
The problem with making all these proposed tax cuts is that inflation will still rise; more money in the system so to speak. The only thing that will really lower inflation is for the American public to spend less. Guess what people that’s what a recession causes and it’s hard.
we should be adding more sanctions to china there helping russia
We must remember that the current price of gas based on inflation over the last 20 years is nowhere near the last price hike in gasoline as the last one if put into the value of today’s currency would be over $10 a gallon so we have not even reached that level and as unappealing as it may sound it is significantly lower than the last gas hike and currently gasoline and Indonesia is $9 a gallon and in Europe it’s averaging $8 a gallon and based on the inflation over the last 20 years it is even in those regions lower than it was back then so we may have a lot to complain about but if we look at inflation it’s nowhere near what we were complaining about 15 years ago when they were threatening that oil would go up to 200 a barrel which it never did because if it did everything in the world would have come to a standstill including every worldwide economy
It’s truth that US is on edge everywhere and the worst things are the politicians make it worst. First the previous administration impose tariffs on China goods resulting in price soaring in consumer goods. And now the current administration impose sanction on Russia resulting in energy prices soaring like it never before resulting in inflation. I wonder why US is shooting their own feet???
I feel sorry for Joe Biden are any president in the next term the only way America is going to get better economically is If the Fed would take their hands off people’s lives . There come a time when the powerful elite must feel the pain that the average working class feels. We must have a balance between the rich and the poor Because One hand washes the other you can’t have a healthy and thriving economy without money being exchanged from hand to hand . We know the super wealthy and and the elite. They are hoarders of the capitals gains when the interest rate goes up it is the wealthy that benefits and the poor suffers All in all there must be a balance. Because what affects some will affect all. If we don’t have balance everything will collapse And the rich would suffer as well. Because There would be nobody able to buy the products and their goods people must have a break.At least 7-year break Because We know nothing is going to happen overnight that’s promises it’s always going to fail and people is always going to want to point a finger at a particular president that they feel it’s not doing a good job. In a way this is kind of childish. But none of us ever wake up to that fact that we are being childish as spoil American citizen.
Expecting too much in a short period of time ln order for things to get better we must reduce the price hike of things and the cost of living rent and mortgage heights should be reduced by 15% to recover. We should have a debt forgiveness system put in place. I no that a lot of credit cards companies and Banks will kick against this But at least the working class would be able to put money away. We must stop the stealing of the American income. Because right now no one has control over their spending anymore. Because they’re too busy trying to keep up with the rising costs of living The price hiking and and excessive governmental spending. We have a war here in America we don’t need to be fighting wars anywhere else. I know thay say that the Ukraine war is about protecting our democracy But let us first fight the one that we have here in America first. If our economy is weak how can we sustain a war. County and cities must hold off tax height on mortgages and rental properties. Stop the greed too much capital gains too quickly. Can spiral things out of control we must find solution. Because in the future we’re going to have a lot of mental health issues that would also be costly. lf we take down the stress level of people the cost factors will decrease when it comes to mental and physical health care costs. We must be taking things into consideration about the climatic effects that we’re going to have to deal with in the foreseeable future. It have already started doing its damage and so far it is very costly But we don’t hear anybody talking about it.
Keep voting democrats into office, it’s done wonders for America ‘
45=47
The lickSpittle DNC Politburo media Press Korps is goose-stepping today! Josef Stalin would give them a Red Star 5. You have to know, uhh, actual history, to know what that means. LickSpittle forth, my comrades!
Listen to shi@ lib Steele. Red patriot wave in November then REAL INVESTIGATIONS BEGIN
work @ home: https://youtu.be/QyuWIP6FmlA
Unfortunately tRump has the MAGA voters in the palm of his hand. It’s all a money grab for him, a strategy to get the every penny he can from his base. After all he was a Democrat until 2014, until he realized there were so many Low IQ and misinformed people in the Republican Party Base. Since 2015 he has been on a “for profit” campaign trail to enrich his friends and family at the expense of the average Republican voter. Sad but True.
Your country is screwed get used to it. Oh so glad I do not live in the basket case that is the USA
There’s a Civil War coming. Like anything we’ve ever seen before. It’s gonna be brutal. I would start planning ahead! Next up abolish the Supreme Court.
Fed up🇺🇸
Too much free money in the lending market for 15 years+, too low of gas prices, record appreciation of real estate and no one spending for the last 2 years. How about all of us look in the mirror and point the finger at who you see for inflation.
This week THANKS TO BIDEN, FED RESERVE, YELEN, I LOST $2,000 IN MY IRA ACCOUNT. DEMOCRATS
SCHUMER, PELOSI, BIDEN AREA DISASTER!!!! I SOLD EVERYTHING IN MY IRA. BACK TO BACK RECESSIONS
= DEPRESSION. DEFINITELY WILL NOT VOTE DEMOCRATIC THIS YEAR!!! EVERYONE SHOULD SELL EVERYTHING IN YOUR IRA ACCOUNT AND CONVERT EVERTHING TO CASH, BEFORE YOU LOSE IT ALL.
BIDEN RUNNING FOR SECOND TERM? WHAT A JOKE!!!
HMMMMM BERNIE PROMISED TO FIX EVERYTHING! BIDEN PROMISED TO DO NOTHING!!! WELL YOU GET WHAT YOU VOTE FOR!! I HOPE BIDEN VOTERS ARE HAPPY. I VOTED FOR BERNIE!!!
TRUMP VS BIDEN VOTE IN 2024: 75% TRUMP(OR ANY REPUBLICAN) 20% BIDEN, 5% OTHERS.
Democrat president cleaning up the mess from the previous R in the WH. Happens every time.
Exactly, it never fails, causes the country to lose ground, and it’s in the records. We can never give them power again!
Gotta wonder if the 9 trillion trump added to the deficit has anything to do with the current inflation problems.
Oops, the always forget about that, strange.
Absolutely love Meet the Press. Chuck Todd is still as boring as whale dung.
He can’t stop it from happening but he had failed in trying to get us out of it. People are suffering way too much. The working poor population is getting bigger and bigger. It just should not be this way in the USA
What a miserable empty talk! Never NBC again!
Chuck, the Fed has TWO jobs: inflation AND employment.
You can thank global warming denier’s for the weather.
It’s climate change now. Global warming was debunked a long time ago . Lol
Wow, in ’73 we had a president fire people for investigating his crimes…never saw that before…
DOJ and Merrick Garland is afraid to prosecute Trump
A bullshiter he is not! Tell the people the truth, why not, haven’t we seen enough gaslighting in the past 6 years, democracy survives or we become ” slaves to the rich”! Isn’t that what Monarchy is, isn’t that what we fought for, who is deciding the American future, ONE MAN or the collective! Looks like “The constitution of the USA is toilet paper for The Conservatives..
Give President Biden a break he is following the worst president in history and it will take time to undo everything that Trump screwed up and he screwed up everything because he was so corrupt and he must be taken down completely and he must never be allowed within a mile or our government and I would not look for anything positive until Trump is ended. He is a clear and present danger
When all is said and done and Trump is indicted and has a trial or three. If you look at the jury and 7 are repub and 5 dems …trump walks. If 9 are dems and 3 repubs or “trumpets” he goes to jail. So one only has to look at the jury to see where Trump is going.
You people are disgusting. The threat to democracy is not rooted in ideology. If it is under threat, it stems from the idea that trusted servants and the media fiefdom think they are so freaking smart. In reality you are like coyotes who chew off three legs and find yourself still caught in the trap.
Who will it be the next President if not Biden? Trump?
We really need to STOP expecting ONE HUMAN BEING to carry all the weight and coddling people’s emotions in ways that lead them to make choices that causes things to get worse.
Instead we All need to be RATIONAL and find constructive & smart ways to get out of this mess. Including the overly cynical and unfairness the media often perpetuates.
Why is everyone acting like nobody knew he was grifting?? It was reported as it happened. Over a year ago! Charge him already!
Comparing capitalism to corporatism, is like comparing conservatism to fascism. Capitalism is value for value. Conservatism is preserving values. Corporatism and fascism are “One ring to rule them all.” Both are anti-democratic.
Democrats should be celebrating the gas issues. Since limited driving helps lower greenhouse gas emissions. As for the price of food, sorry to hear that so many people are accustomed to being hand fed. People with property need to learn to be more self efficient and plant their own gardens then the only thing they might have to pay for is their protein source. SUCH HELPLESSNESS!
Governor Polis ought to run for President in 2024.
My distrust of Americans just increases the more I watch the news, and that is liberal news. The conservative news outlets make me wish Canada would build a wall to keep them out.
For me the most stressful thing of all is Trump STILL lumbering around spewing his enormous lies and keeping his ignorant, bigoted and racist supporters whipped up and causing chaos.
…and he might be elected president again.
havent seen this show in a long time. when did the introduction become so melodramatic? who is writing this stuff? why not just introduce the program without out all of the quasi-poetic / melodramatic dramatic language and intonation?
You want to fix the country stop being the negotiator and grow a pair , fin comapnies who gouge prices US EO to freeze prices.
Absolutely, I’m tired of these monopolies gouging the American people. It seems that our Congress favors corporations over people. American people are just sick of it. Does not matter who’s in office our Congress is a no-show for the American people. Trump just showed us how bad capitalism can be when it’s aloud to going amok. President Biden needs to be more forceful, he panders too much to the right.
I find no charm coming from uncaring Joe Biden. He’s the “Let Them Eat Cake” President.
I think your remark is totally unfair.
@Beverly Dermady I am sick of being lied to and not enjoying $6 gas and heating oil while Biden’s minions call his uncaring remarks “Charming, why we like him…”. It rings hollow with me.
10:05 Colorado Governor Jared Polis
Here’s my opinion and the way Congress works, they can pass a military budget without any problem. But when it comes to use an executive orders to help the American people from either party it seems it takes forever. I just find it appalling
This is not really a Democracy ! We are a people Governed by Plutocrats and Banks to Big To Fail ! Not one of those CEO’s went to jail when the banks did fail !!! And the American Taxpayers bailed those banks out of BANKRUPTCY!
This is what makese mad is that people like Chick Todd is trying to put as negative a vision, that makes it more difficult to show the of what has been accomplished. It takes Mocheal Steel for to bring the light.
Republicans will allow our economy to collapse, triggering a global collapse, and possibly WW3, before they, in their complete arrogance, support any Biden initiative to help our economy. Biden can’t be blamed for such causes as the war in Ukraine nor the supply chain problem. The #1 reason for the global disruption in the supply chain is COVID. And we all know how the Former Guy, leader of the free world, handled that matter. Or should I say DIDNT.
HEY people we can fix the gas and stick it to the corporations all we have to do is all stay home for 2 weeks at the same time no going anywhere and it will cause a surplus in gas and force them to drop prices and if they don’t we know they are gouging.
Am. Bill Taylor Institute of peace say funny think: “no peace talk with Russian, big gun on the to continuing the war.”
Amazing………this is what you elected to lead our country. Congratulations
so helpful for chuck todd to say “national malaise” outt of the blue. Fire him.
Biden shouldn’t run again.He can name his successor and go out a winner……..He’s a good man but we need a decisive hero.
republicans the party of lawlessness.
Why are you not blaming the evangelicals for all this chaos
They are the only ones who can vote criminal Republicans in office. You guys don’t know that I don’t trust youbthen
Donald Trump is laughing because he know you guys won’t talk about his own private Cult
TheLiar(45) NormalizedLYING. NormalizedWEIRD..The truth is the truth , We The People can handle the TRUTH, adversity is the challenge WE can do , short term pain long term game .
Adversity is the challenge WE the People can survive . GOP’s circus of liars , deviant deceivers and sycophants are the real danger to America
Slaves ancestors descendants required preparations 40 acres and a mule that is the first American priority the people that help build this nation Africans in America. Y’all say y’all ain’t got no money for us and you send money to white people that let us know like lives do not matter
#Statefarms
We are grossly misinformed about Treaty obligations and enforcement of Treaties instituted by scientists to initiate survival. These attacks on Taiwan and Ukraine are evidence of diplomatic impass and lack of communication.The USA has become a gross violator of international relations and international laws and international Treaties instituted by scientists to initiate survival. The news media consistently omit violations of Treaties and international law
“Please replace Chuckie Toad.”
The actual ability to work and have money to spend is the essential quality of an economy. In the three largest states California New York and Texas the median income is poverty as defined by the minimum wage act and 4 times the rent for one bedroom apartment local commute. The boundaries of government and business is not told to the poorest people.

The 3 most important police forces investigate TRUMP,,, NOTHING… So the only way to..get TRUMP is to frame him 3 Times the DEMOCRATS have tried focussed on Trump, and Trump only
ππππππππππππππππππππππππππ
Reason, why they gonna get TRUMP
Because HE WILL EXPOSE THEIR CORRUPTION EVIDENCE OF CORRUPTION WILL SHOW HOW PELOSI, SCHUMER , SCHIFF etc Comey, etc BRENNAN etc. All will be found guilty of treason.. THEY ARE SO TERRIFIED OF TRUMP. THEY KNOW HE WILL. WIN BY LANDSLIDE.THEN SHOW NANCY’S TEXTS THAT DAY. THEY WON’T TAKE TRUMP TO COURT, HE WILL SUMMON NANCY’S TEXTS SND SCHIFF
What actually happened is not that important.
What we witnessed on Jan 6 is not relevant.
What? Is ripping $250 million off supporters, planning and executing a coup which caused loss of life, lying about the lost election non-stop to keep power, and trying to murder your Vice-President ILLEGAL????
GIVE ME A BREAK! And don’t ask such STUPID and anti-American questions!
Gas rebate, 40 billion to Ukraine, erase student debt, Free flights for migrants. Let’s just buy a house for all the homeless next.
Chuck, What do you mean by “this is it enough to charge the ex president?” The crimes he committed In the Mueller report were enough to charge him with 10 indictments!!!🇺🇸
The summer of our discontent:
Why is it so?
* Trump openly tries many ways to steal 2020
* The Republican Insurgency launches
distractions like inflation, attacks on
abortion, launches voter suppression,
contempt of Congress over Jan 6th
* stalled climate change legislation.
* Democrats failed to pass build back better due to 2 Democrat Senators.
* Trump still has the Fox lies echo chamber supporting stolen election
belief.
* School shootings, Buffalo shootings,
and others yet NRA and GOP block
assault rifle bans.
The list goes on. Trump still has GOP placeholders blocking legislation to address numerous problems.
Trump is preparing to run again with
more plans to steal 2024.
civil war looming in the future due to the corporate money still flooding into a GOP bent on destroying democracy.
Supreme Court compromised due to
Thomas revelations.
DOES THIS LOOK BAD?
IF YOU HAVE BEEN HIDING UNDER A ROCK FOR ABOUT 6 YEARS THEN, NO.
IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN UNDER THAT
ROCK, WELL, YEAH.
Ok people.
democracy has already been taken away.
The system is already so broken by a Republican Insurgency we do not have to wait until 2024.
IT IS ALREADY BROKEN NOW.
THE REPUBLICAN INSURGENCY DID IT.
WE JUST DID NOT FACE THE FACTS.
He best take care of his Social Security promises before mid terms. No SS raise out of poverty,. NO VOTES For Democrats. Screw me, I Screw You for your lies for votes.
Make the rich pay their fare share. Cut government wages, retirements, and expenses!!! Americans can no longer afford making millionaires out of all of our Congressmen by wages, retirement, healthcare, expenses, days off with pay and paid vacations, etc….
The DOJ should charge anyone who runs on the big steal lie in 2022 as a co-seditious conspirator
MTP is so right wing bias. No mention of low unemployment, higher gas prices thanks to Russia and our need to support Ukraine, and no mention of how the refineries are purposely not refining the amount of oil that they can! Did anyone mention that America is the leading producer of crude oil at this very moment? All we need is the refining to be done, but the refiner‘s are purposely not doing their job simply in order to increase profits!?
Did anyone mention how CEOs are bragging to their stockholders about how they’re able to raise the prices indiscriminately now without government intervention? This all goes down to the Republicans refusing to put proper regulations into place!
Republicans also walked out of the police reform discussions, and now they’re walking out of the bilateral gun control discussions as well. They don’t care that our children are being shot in the head and that insane elements are trying to start a race war in America’s name.
Wake up America! Democrats are the only thing standing in the way of a 21st century Hitler, and Chuck Todd purposely paints the worst picture while always sending it back to Biden instead of Trump and the Republicans!
Can biden fix anything? ANYTHING?
politics politics politics.
We’re looking weak to the world we have to get Biden and his administration out now not in years now before we stop being number 1
January 06, political prisoners, political trials.
Let’s say all politicians give up half of their pay for one year and give it to people who need the money until they can change the high price of gas, food and everything else! Let them try to live off of 50, 60, 75 or even 100,000 a year. They make way too much money and we the people are over here paying the price! Democrats and Republicans alike!
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D-Colo.) for President! Love my Governor! Can’t wait to vote Bimbert out!!!
Ask the Democratic Central Committee if they would ask Bernie to STEP IN !
it looks a lot worse when this guy is funding a war that we’re not even fighting …try giving money to your own country .he’s just a weak president that could be doing a lot more
It’s all Biden’s fault. All because of premature implementation of Green New Deal.
Lol you call that truth smh
