Ronna McDaniel, the erstwhile chair of the Republican National Committee, is stepping across the aisle in a manner of speaking, now serving as a commentator for NBC and its affiliated cable network, MSNBC. This move comes hot on the heels of her stepping away from her leadership role within the Republican National Committee. It appears she will grace the NBC platform for the first time on the upcoming episode of 'Meet the Press'. Having previously functioned as the chair for the Republican National Committee, McDaniel's fresh enlistment with NBC comes in the wake of her resignation from the Republican institution this very month. NBC has publicly announced McDaniel's new position, which speaks much about the analysts that the network has been recruiting. The addition of McDaniel to NBC adds a hint of conservative insight to their team of political experts. NBC's audience can expect the she would offer informed commentary, not just on NBC but also on MSNBC, which is widely seen as a network with a left-leaning bent. This is a platform that has been criticized in the past by former President Donald J. Trump and his supporters for being a mouthpiece for the Democratic Party. Carrie Budoff Brown, the person responsible for NBC's political coverage, stressed the importance of adding someone with McDaniel's voice and perspective to the network, stating how vital it is to have her unique perspective as part of their lineup. The expectation is that she will provide a new angle, an insider's look at nationwide politics and the direction the Republican Party is headed. An interesting aspect is her involvement in the coverage of the 2024 election cycle. Chosen by the former President, Donald J. Trump, to helm the Republican Party following her instrumental role in securing his 2016 presidential election victory in Michigan, McDaniel has had an eventful tenure as the chairwoman. Her stint witnessed occasional disagreements with Trump. In particular, Trump expressed discontent last year regarding her decision to support multiple Republican presidential primary debates, one of which NBC hosted, a fact that drew attention as it featured the contenders to Trump. In the early stages of 2020, McDaniel appealed to Republicans to rally behind Mr. Trump following his win in the New Hampshire primary, a decision which met with less than warm response from Nikki Haley, considered a rival to Mr. Trump who had yet to withdraw from the race. Subsequent developments saw Mr. Trump assign his daughter-in-law and a trusted advisor to steer the Republican National Committee, further solidifying his hold over the Republican establishment. McDaniel joins a prominent roster of Republican commentators at NBC News which already features Marc Short, the previous chief of staff for Vice President Mike Pence, and Brendan Buck, who has been an influential aide to political figures such as Paul Ryan and John Boehner. Counterpart panellists bringing in the Democratic viewpoint include ex-Senator Claire McCaskill and Barack Obama's past campaign manager, David Plouffe. NBC and MSNBC have been expanding their team of expert commentators since the commencement of President Biden's tenure. Notable talent includes Jen Psaki, who performed the role of President Biden's original press secretary, and Symone D. Sanders, who has previously acted as the chief spokesperson for Vice President Kamala Harris. Eager observers are bound to be riveted by this development and its potential to shift the narration of contemporary political discourse. Undoubtedly, the vastly experienced McDaniel looks set to make her presence felt and exert a positive influence on NBC's political coverage, notably beginning with her first appearance on 'Meet the Press' this Sunday.

John Heilemann talks with Symone Sanders, former senior adviser and spokesperson for Vice President Kamala Harris, top aide on Joe Biden's 2020 campaign and Bernie Sanders's 2016 bid, and now host of a new weekend show on MSNBC, Symone. Heilemann and Sanders discuss the launch of the January 6th House Select Committee's televised hearings, the strength of Liz Cheney's performance, and the shocking evidence of Donald Trump's dereliction of duty on 1/6; Symone's memories of being at the DNC that day with VP Harris when they learned that a bomb had planted there; her assessment of whether Trump will run again in 2024, whether President Biden will do the same, and whether Biden would support Harris if he doesn't run and she does. Symone also reminisces about growing up Black in Omaha, Nebraska, how she convinced Bernie Sanders to hire her (at just 24 years old, with no presidential-campaign experience) as his campaign press secretary, and a childhood spent acting out (with the help of an imaginary alter ego named Donna Burns) the very role she's playing now as a TV host.

It's been three hundred years - ok, a long several hundred days - of the 2020 Presidential campaign. And the rhetoric hasn't changed amongst some folks. "What will Biden & Harris do for Black people?" "Why are Black men being left out and not catered to like Black women are?" "Trump and Biden are the same." "No one has earned the Black vote." It's become clear many people simply haven't read the very much in depth Biden-Harris platform on JoeBiden.com. Since many do have time to repeat rhetoric developed by the Trump campaign, Symone D. Sanders, the Biden campaign's Senior Advisor, is offering up the rhetoric that is based in fact. She's breaking down the points YOU NEED TO KNOW about the Build Back Better plan that directly help lack America where Trump's Platinum Plan remains vague and unreliable. You can no longer say you "don't know how" Biden & Harris will help Black America after listening to this. Agree or disagree with the plan, but at least KNOW the plan. Vote early. Vote NOW. Election DEADLINE is Nov. 3rd. Election DAY is now. Visit TheYBF.com for all entertainment news and more from YBF POLITICS!

“Being a radical revolutionary means standing in the gap and being willing to access who is and who is not at the table.” - Symone D. Sanders When Symone Sanders was the ripe old age of 25, she boldly pursued a job she wanted... and got it. Symone was the national press secretary for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders in 2015 and has since made waves as a political commentator on CNN and a powerful political activist. She calls for accomplices, not allies. Symone asks us to recognize our differences, embrace them, and work together for radical solutions. She's fierce, sharp as a tack, and strong as a... well.. woman. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll probably have to write in your journal after this one. (We definitely did.) This interview took place in front of a live audience at the August Wilson Center as part of the TruthSayers series. Listen in, and get ready to be inspired to follow your path, just the way you are!
