    White men for Trump
    Many ask why. It seems simple. They are just like him. They don’t want to work. They think they are entitled to just about everything. They lie about their worth and strengths. It’s always somebody else’s fault. They want no responsibility. They want to play with their toys. They act like teenagers. Who does that sound like. He is their idol. Simple. The responsible grownups will vote for Harris and her ticket. You can’t win them over.

    Twice in 1 Week<Nixon didn’t call for a recount in Election against JFK
    On The Beat last Week—We had the opportunity hear from Amb Sondland/Navarro/Matthews…then Journalist Chris Wallace—both highlighted voting discrepancies in the 1960 Election….possibly Navarro thought He was Mazo(?) Navarro wrote what was a predetermative coup—“ Mazo who helped to publicize the idea that voter fraud cost Nixon the election, and that Republican officials pursued recounts and investigations in 11 states. In the end, Nixon wound up losing the state of Hawaii to Kennedy after the recounts”…..The conclusion was that Nixon bowed-out for “the sake of the Country/Constitution” He also knew that the “discrepancies were NOT WIDE ENOUGH to decide the Election” I LOVE LEARNING NEW THINGS—THE BEAT HAS LAYERS, KIDS!

    Ditch Navarro
    Pete Navarro is absolutely clueless and, even now, fails to understand why refusing to appear in Congress after receiving a subpoena should have resulted in him getting imprisoned and he still tries to justify not showing up. He's just awful. Let him appear on FOX, a place where they don't care about the truth. $787 M in settlement proves that.

    WHY?
    Don’t you think these people get enough airtime on FOX?

    Can’t find any truth anymore
    I was really hoping to hear some clarity about today’s issues in today’s politics except I heard the same rhetoric speak as on TV.

    katie phang and your poll comment: omg i am old and i don’t even pick up my phone when incoming is an unknown caller so obviously young people don’t either. that is why polling is absurd if taken via phone calls...absolutely STUPID! So stop referring to them unless they can get a way to ask us questions that don’t involve a phone call. even that said, i don’t do surveys via txt or email either from unfamilar origins because what are we taught from work and apply towards our personal devices too: never click on a link from a source you don’t recognize!! remember dumb john podesta did that and it released a plethora of emails?? once again, you aren’t getting young people or other people that have learned the ways of keeping a virus or hackers out of your device. again, eff the polls they are not even close to reflecting the truth. they reflect people dumb about using their device. get real katie.

    Podcast: you just lost me
    Giving Ezra Klein an interview platform to say ‘I told you to get a new ticket back in February’. This was only worth a brief mention, if even that. Your coverage has listed to the mistaken belief that changing candidates is going to make Trump more beatable. You are becoming part of the problem instead of helping us retain the presidency The ratings cannot possibly be worth the heavy handed tilt against Biden. Take a cue from Joy or Lawrence who are balanced but not on the jettison Biden train

    FAITHLESS DEMOCRATS
    Ari, thank you for covering the actual facts on the ground. Thank you for addressing the DEMOCRATIC campaign AGAINST Biden and how that needs to be considered, rather than falsely blaming Biden’s bad debate. I do not see how disenfranchising the 14M, 87% who ACTUALLY, cast LEGAL VOTES in a legal Democratic Primary…it is insane for Dem’s to try to force our nominee off the top of the ticket, to impose their will rather than the will of the voters. I do not see what the difference b/w Trump and MAGA trying to send fake electors in 2020 to disenfranchise us all, is any different than anti-Biden Dem’s trying to send false delegates to the 2024 DNC…oh wait I do see the difference: Republicans we’re trying to disenfranchise Democratic voters whilst, in this case, Democrats are trying to disenfranchise THEIR OWN. This way lies madness! You and Joy Reid seem to be getting at this but please get there faster and louder! Thank you Ari!
  • JudyKay61
    Again!!
    How many days are you guys going to rant about President Biden dropping out of the race. Give it a break. I’m so sick of this stupid nonsense Why aren’t you calling for the convicted felon rapist trump to drop out. You treat the felon trump like he’s a normal person He’s not normal. He’s a criminal. What is wrong you media people??? Just stop!

    Thank you, Katie Phang
    I hate these attacks on President Biden. Thank you, Katie, for pushing back against these abusive comments about President Biden. The Dems must unite behind Biden NOW and stop helping Trump divide and conquer.

    What's your problem with Michael Cohen? "Bloodbath?" Lol!!! Was that in between sharts or snores? Michael Avenati? Who's next, Shrieking MTG? That Stepford wife who "served" all of us with a "bloodbath" (the QMAGAt answer to President Biden's speech) delivered in whispers from her kitchen table? There's a seat at Faux or Newsmax with your name on it, run, they're waiting for you there! Unsubscribed.

    A rare television journalist
    Ari is a rarity these days. He delivers information without tons of loaded language, hand-feeding you opinions. I don’t want the media to think for me. I want information and analysis but without the blatant bias. Ari does this. Thanks Ari
  • Marie Tellez

    Ari interview Karl Rove, not
    I was looking forward to interviewing Rove, April 3, disappointed no interview. Also, carping on loud phone news on NYC subway, come on, a worthless irrelevant subject thanks Marc
  • Jen-Degtjarewsky
    Thanks MSNBC + Podcast Staff
    Thanks so much for making this show available as a podcast so I can listen while I workout. — 🍬🍬🍬. I know Ari is eye candy, but thanks for understanding he's also ear and brain candy too. 🍬🍬🍬 ——- PS: Also, thanks for getting this pod up same day without fail. 🙌 I can always count on a new episode each evening. (That’s 4 “thanks” if you are counting…) ——PSS: I could do two hours of Ari a day super easy. So, if room opens in the program schedule for a longer show, I’d be down. ————-Just sayin’ 🧘‍♀️

    Don’t miss a moment
    I have been watching Ari on MSNBC for years and while I’m traveling I’m so glad I can listen to the podcast. He gives even coverage of the topics and presents the legal facts. Thank you Ari.

    INQUIRER GOLD
    Dear Mr Melber, I’ve had in my wallet, 6-7 nude pictures of Ms. Melania Trump that her husband,(Donald Trump), posted on Facebook soon after becoming President. Inquirer Gold? I’ve planned to make a deck of cards w/them but have never had the time.
  • Tekkygal
    Honest reporting!
    I love listening to Ari’s take on things. He’s honest, to the point and clear. Thank you!
  • Pluh?
    Your Style!
    Hi Ari! I like your style of news reporting. I can’t always catch your TV show, so your podcast is a wonderful way to catch up with the daily news. You explain the legal side of the times we are living through and show both sides of a situation. BTW your musical Fridays are fun and informative. Your podcast extras are most welcome and informative. That’s cool! I’ll keep tuned in! :) Judy
  • august dog
    You idiot!!!
    Nice job, Doofus, having M Avenatti on your show. Ratings that important. Shame on you. Done with your show.
  • beachdream tunes
    Stop both siding
    Please stop saying both sides are the same when the only legitimate and right side is Democratic.

    The GOAT
    I just heard Ari close his interview with Eric Holder with a quote from HOV off the top of his head. Ari is the Michael Jordan of news!

    Review
    I’m a concerned citizen. I value the communication skills Ari exhibits when he explains what is happening in the political scene. His ability to pinpoint what is important and therm explains it in an undesirable manner. I watch many other news shows and wonder why the host can’t explain the situation well. When this has happened repeatedly I can’t give credit to the show writers as I once thought. It’s clear that Ari Melborn has an exceptional talent. Why isn’t he repeated in the late night like other shows. Other voters need to hear him. Please consider giving him a better time when the viewership is greater. We have a critical election upcoming for president of the United States. Trump election would be a problem for the continued Democracy of our country. MSNBC owes it to our country to put critical thinking to a greater audience so our country might have the information needed to make an informed vote.
  • Wisscrabbler
    Love it but 1 suggestion!
    Love your show. I highly recommend we STOP saying “threat to DEMOCRACY” & instead say “threat to constitution” or to “the republic”. A LOT of people directly associate ‘democracy’ with the Democratic Party. I know it’s hard to believe but it’s very, very true. Iowa is such an example. When someone says “threat to democracy”…a lot of ppl think that means the democrats!!!

    Ari’s response to Colorado AG shocking
    After the news that the U.S. Supreme Court was going to take up the quesion of the legality of Trump being removed from the Presidential ballot, in response to the Colorado AG’s justification for her decision to complete the legally required process to remove Trump from the ballot, Ari essentially told her that she should be careful what she says! He explained essentially that what she says could result in a dangerous response! First, the AG is a brave and patriotic woman who felt compelled to honor the oath she took. I’m insulted that Ari implied that she wasn’t clearly aware of the danger involved in doing the right thing. Second, if we don’t stand up now and do the right and just thing, when should we!? Tragically not enough people were willing to stand up to danger before WWII and the Civil War. Who’s going to be around to clean up our mess!? What country is going to accept us as migrants when we need to escape the tyranny of a dictator?

    Let your guests speak!!!
    While I thoroughly enjoy watching and listening to your show, please allow your guests to answer the questions posed to them before interrupting them. Your guests are all experts in their fields and it’s very helpful to get their insight on the topics at hand. But it’s very annoying when you’re constantly interrupting them before they can answer the question.
  • Atl in Hz
    Enjoy the show but…
    They continue to run THE MOST ANNOYING commercial ad I have ever heard. When a break begins I run to my phone to fast forward past the ad. It’s so bad I have no idea what they’re selling. Please tell that sponsor to find a better ad.
  • Burdyblue
    Great interviewing skills
    Loved the Liz interview. Thanks.
  • PDX Grandmother
    Scheduling Timing Guests
    Please give your guests enough time to answer the questions you ask before the interruptive phrase about running out of time is said. That phrase can be disconcerting to me as a listener. Your invited guests and their perspectives are an important part of your show. They generally have very useful information to share. Your thoughtful and legally based intelligent responses finish up nicely, and are your gift!
  • PAyscue
    A Gaetz too far......
    Inviting Gaetz back on to spew his lies & right-wing bull resulted in my giving Chris Licht-less CNN another try. Better coverage of Gaza escalation, so I appreciate the impetus. I'll still be loyal Nicole Wallace/Lawrence O'Donnell fan but combined with never seeing/hearing Andrea Mitchell geriatric mumbling, my MSNBC viewership is over
  • UpScience&Truth
    Like it more with Ari Melber
    I found your perspective authentic and faithful to the job your should do in your position in the society. Is simple if everyone just do his job the best way possible the world around us improves exponentially. Of course it is just a theoretical approach but like our dream guide us that dream is also valid. Just a general comment that I would like you to consider and if so, divulge and let expand, In may view the best play to select as Speaker of the house is Liz Cheney… it would be really unifying!! Don’t you see it likely? Thank you so much!!
  • LaraGen
    Thanks for
    having Howard Dean on. He always speaks the truth in a straightforward manner. Would like to hear more from him. Thanks, Ari, for focusing on Fani Willis - she’s a hero. Appreciate your calm, fact-based presentation everyday.

    Legal questions?
    Please ask General Mark Milley: WHy the U.S. military court martial trump? They can use Fort Leavenworth to lock up EX Commander and Chief. trump’s secret service can stay on Post at Fort Leavenworth. trump is a Vietnam draft dodger. A privileged Rick kid, had an in grown toe nail. he owes us Vietnam Veterans 365 days. 365 days is equal to one Vietnam tour.
