NBC News has come under fire — by its own star anchors — for hiring former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel as a political analyst. On Monday, MSNBC and NBC hosts, including Chuck Todd, Mika Brzezinski, Joe Scarborough and Joy Reid, all called out the decision on their live shows. Rachel Maddow, MSNBC’s highest-rated anchor, devoted a 30-minute monologue to the news.

Rachel Maddow: “The person who was the head of the Republican Party during Donald Trump’s time in office and during his effort to throw out the election result and stay in power anyway, and during his effort to run for election again after having done that, is Ronna Romney McDaniel. And she pitched in and helped. She helped set in motion the part of the plot that involved sending fake Trump electors to Congress.”

Rachel Maddow added, “You are priming the American public to not accept the results of the next election, either.”
