Growing increasingly irate, @NBCNews political director Chuck Todd (who claims to be a non-biased "referee") yells at Sen. Barrasso (R-WY) for pointing out precedent and for doing what Democrats would undoubtedly do if they had both the WH and Senate: fill the vacant SCOTUS seat.
When Senator Barrasso again mentioned the Biden Rule, Todd screamed at his guest: "What are you-- there is no Biden Rule!"
Refusing to apply the same standard to Dems who were against filling SCOTUS seats in election years before they were for it and before they were against it again, Todd called Barrasso a hypocrite: "Whatever you're saying today will change depending on the politics at the moment?"
Claiming he understood what average Americans thought, Todd (who rented a house to Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN)) denounced Senate Republicans as hypocrites with "caveats." Still no mention of the Democrats' flip-flop-flip on filling SCOTUS vacancies in elections years.
In between outbrusts at Sen. Barrasso, Todd would sit there and make faces at him. Here's a sampling:

I'm inside the Bay Country, Florida Courthouse for Day Two of the $1 billion defamation trial of Zachary Young v. CNN.
Judge William Scott Henry is currently reading the instructions to the jury about the nature of what will be argued before them.
Opening arguments from both sides will happen today and testimony from U.S. Navy veteran Zachary Young is also expected.
Thank you to @LawCrimeNetwork for being the pool camera feed!
"The facts didn't matter"
Opening arguments begin with one of Young's lawyers, Kyle Roche telling the jury about how CNN approached telling the story about Young.
He says CNN ignored the facts told to them about how Young ran his extraction operations in Afghanistan.
"CNN felt they had a sensational story that would drive ratings and they didn't care about the truth," Roche said. "CNN chose theater over truth and destroyed the life of an American Patriot."

Comedian Whitney Cummings takes shots at CNN while on CNN:
"I'm now playing, you know, like 3000 seat theaters, which is about the viewership of CNN these days."
She actually mentions Hunter Biden's laptop and his obsession with hookers:
"The Dallas Cowboys cheerleader doc showed the girls being treated horribly underpaid, crying. I thought I'd open a video on Hunter Biden's laptop."
She's surprised CNN didn't cut her mic after taking a swing at Dems and the COVID vax:
"[Dems] couldn't hold a primary because they were too busy holding a body upright. Are we still rolling? Am I off? ... Kamala was forced on us so hard you'd think she was patented by Pfizer"

Sunny Hostin touts some of the heinous comments celebrating the assassination of Brian Thompson: "Isn't that something? I think it's reflective about how people are feeling about their healthcare."
She then calls for universal healthcare.
Sara Haines points out that killing people is not how to effect good change: "The sheer stupidity that people would turn to violence and think they're effectuating change is the most ghastly part of this."
Adding: "You're not dude. You're not going to change anything."
Alyssa Farah Griffin calls out the "prominent figures on the far-left who were celebrating this" like Taylor Lorenz:
JOY BEHAR: How do you know that?
FARAH GRIFFIN: It's online. I'm not even going to amplify and say who because it is ghoulish, it is disgusting, it is evil."

Whining about Trump campaign ads, Sunny Hostin falsely claims Kamala does not support taxpayer-funded sex change surgeries. Joy Behar claims that Sunny's question about what Kamala would do differently as president was "taken out of context." Sunny admits she wasn't.
Charlamagne tha God calls on Democrats need to "muddy the waters" and "cause some confusion" among voters with their campaign ads.
"You got to get dirty with these people," he said about running against Republicans.
In response to Charlamagne ripping Joe Biden for volunteering the lie about pardoning his son Hunter, Whoopi insanely claims: "You don't know that it was a lie."
"You really think he changed his mind over Thanksgiving weekend all of a sudden?" he shot back.

Whoopi Goldberg, who has not served America in any way, mocks Pete Hegseth's name and ignores his 20 years of decorated military service which included combat tours, and his years of advocating for veterans.
Despite Hegseth's decades of military service, Whoopi claims he "clearly does not know anything about the military."
None of the cast seems to be aware of his service, but their ignorance doesn't keep them from mouthing off.
Sara Haines falsely claims Hegseth only "served for five or six years" and was middle -- midranking.
He served for 20 years and achieved the rank of Major.
She and Alyssa Farah Griffin whine that he has no experience as a bureaucrat.

The View praises Kamala's late concession speech.
"She's even inspiring in defeat. Like, the things she said about we don't stop fighting," Haines boasted.
She claims the only person to "pull off" election denying is Trump. Meanwhile, The View denied the 2016 election.
Joy Behar rages at the red wave: "We lost the Senate, the Supreme Court, the executive branch, the House is on the verge of going to him. It's pathetic! There are no checks and balances."
She bashes America for not electing the "completely intelligent qualified woman."
Continuing the bashing of America, Sunny Hostin whines: "This country missed out on [Kamala's] leadership. This country missed out on the leadership of moving forward, not going back, the leadership of someone that was trying to unify this country..."
