Matthews, Hackett Demolish GOP Candidate
This one was so brutal it almost wasn't fun to watch. Almost. NBC's Chris Matthews and antiwar veteran Paul Hackett made mincemeat of Texas GOP congressional candidate Van Taylor, whom they repeatedly chastised for using meaningless talking points. Taylor was more out of his depth than George Bush at a Mensa convention.

TRUTHDIG’S JOURNALISM REMAINS CLEARCrooks and Liars:
Paul Hackett debated the Iraq war with Republican … candidate Van Taylor.
Taylor who did fight in the Iraq war?for some reason uses the most original “we?re fighting them over there” argument which is sounding more and more like an Abbott & Costello routine. Just listen to the Ken Mehlman “talking points” Van uses during the discussion that lack any real substance.
The storytellers of chaos tried to manipulate the political and media narrative in 2025, but independent journalism exposed what they tried to hide.
When you read Truthdig, you see through the illusion.

Chris Matthews abruptly resigned from MSNBC this week, but not before revealing how party elites really feel about the Vermont senator.
In his relentless red-baiting of Bernie Sanders, Chris Matthews reveals just how divorced he and his ilk are from our political moment.
If Democrats have any hope of unseating Donald Trump in November, they must stop smearing their party’s frontrunner and his supporters.
In a new segment, the author calls out the political establishment for behaving "like out-of-touch aristocrats in a dying aristocracy."
The network's pundits are near tears, lamenting that they don't understand the country anymore.
If Bernie Sanders — miraculously — wins the nomination, Democratic Party elites suddenly will bless Trump as the least worst option.
