Mehdi episode

My husband and I watch News Nation and you are our favorite segment. We appreciate the fact based reporting and dialogue with your guests, especially Bill O’Reilly. I just started listening to your podcast. I am conservative but definitely not a “Trumper”. I was disappointed in your lack of boundaries(in my opinion) with Medhi Hasan. He clearly spoke from deep within his own very liberal point of view. He is very intelligent and articulate but I felt he kind of trampled you. He said he immigrated from the UK in 2017 (when Trump was president) and became a citizen I believe in 2022. Kudos for him to do the process legally. However, if he is so disenchanted with our country based on how he clearly views our government then go home to the UK! We don’t need haters of our country living here and spewing his negativity. It only encourages division, and we don’t need help there! He states that the Republican party is a cult and how can they possibly endorse Trump for president. Can’t the same be said for the Democrats and Biden? He also shouldn’t be running again simply because he is the incumbent or that he can BEAT Trump. What happened to voting for the best candidate to lead our country successfully? Ugh. I know I don’t have to agree but Medhi is quite intellectually full of himself, of course my opinion. Listening to him put me in a very defensive mood.

The Israeli war

First I want to thank you for bringing me back to the news, the real news. I just watched your News Nation episode with the three gentlemen debating the Israeli war and not in sync. I also saw your introduction prior to the 3 gentlemen’s debate. It is unfortunate that people who have never really seen war do not understand it, or the history of it. There is one saying that I believe covers all wars, “In war, truth is the first casualty” by Aeschylus.

Loving "Let's Get After It"

I've been a fan since you were on ABC. Loved the show on CNN and the relationships formed with other anchors especially the Handoff with Don Lemon. I hope you guys are still friends! I think your podcast is great! I'm 65 years old and you have made me think again. I'm excited to learn more about topics you talk about and just learning new things in general. Your most recent episode comparing OJ and Trump was spot on and your delivery, saying what some people are thinking, is also very interesting! I pretty much was thinking exactly the same things as you, but a lot of my friends think the way your delivery of public comments would be! I also want to add your work on NewsNation is very good. I tape it everyday and sometimes rewatch episodes to real think about what was discussed! Keep up the good work!
