        Nah, she’s still progressive. She and Cenk are trying to build bridges with the right on the things we can agree on. They’re doing good.

        Yeah, but at least she seems to still be on the right side of the fascist apartheid state issue.

        Not saying that it absolves her from all the other bullshit she’s been spouting since her and Cenk’s heel turn, but it’s something 🤷

          I mean, she was very much spewing shit during the election that the whole project 2025 stuff was complete hyperbole and not going to happen.

          In fairness to her she also did explicitly acknowledge she was wrong and apologize, but at the same time it takes real skill to be that stupid to begin with.

          I honestly am much more sympathetic to cenk. I don’t think he’s being cynical I think he’s just wrong but earnest

          I never got into them as I can’t take someone seriously who spent years pushing for idiocy. Its like I used to be stupids but now im smarts. Even if I agree with the particular segment or points it just feel like they went the one way and did not do well so just flipped and got traction so stuck with it until they don’t see profit and then will try flipping again.

        Oh no, when did she become a conservative? I lay watched them around 2020 and she was left on most things and a liberal other times.

          It started a couple years ago when she went on a bizarre transphobic tirade, against the use of trans inclusive language. From there, it’s just been a long downward spiral.

          The whole reason she’s on this conservative talk show is because she’s been making this rightward pivot

          I used to watch them during Trump 1.0 and I enjoyed her too, but it was a little too much for me, but I remember seeing videos of her last year being a bootlicker. Not sure when it happened.
