New MSNBC Bloodbath of Non-White Anchors After Joy Reid Forced Out
MSNBC finalized its revamped schedule on Monday, promoting progressive anchors Jen Psaki and Symone Sanders-Townsend to primetime while booting its largely non-white weekend lineup of hosts off their namesake shows.
Anchors Jonathan Capehart, Katie Phang, and Ayman Mohyeldin are losing their eponymous weekend shows. Capehart and Mohyeldin will instead be one of multiple hosts of separate editions of The Weekend at 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., respectively, while Phang will remain with the network as a legal correspondent with no anchor slot. Its other Miami-based anchor, José Díaz-Balart, will also lose his show, though he will remain as host of NBC’s weekend edition of Nightly News.

Nearly 40% of contracts canceled by Musk’s DOGE are expected to produce no savings
Nearly 40% of the federal contracts that President Donald Trump’s administration claims to have canceled as part of its signature cost-cutting program aren’t expected to save the government any money, the administration’s own data shows.
The Department of Government Efficiency, run by Trump adviser Elon Musk, published an updated list Monday of nearly 2,300 contracts that agencies terminated in recent weeks across the federal government. Data published on DOGE’s “Wall of Receipts” shows that more than one-third of the contract cancellations, 794 in all, are expected to yield no savings.
That’s usually because the total value of the contracts has already been fully obligated, which means the government has a legal requirement to spend the funds for the goods or services it purchased and in many cases has already done so.
“It’s like confiscating used ammunition after it’s been shot when there’s nothing left in it. It doesn’t accomplish any policy objective,” said Charles Tiefer, a retired University of Baltimore law professor and expert on government contracting law. “Their terminating so many contracts pointlessly obviously doesn’t accomplish anything for saving money.”

D.C. Police Seek Arrest of Republican Congressman Over Alleged Assault of 27-Year-Old Woman
Police in Washington, D.C., are seeking the arrest of Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) over assault allegations leveled against him last week by a 27-year-old woman, a report claims.
The woman claimed during a conversation with police that Mills injured her last Wednesday, but she later “recanted” what she told responding officers in DC. Mills denied an assault and was not arrested.
D.C. police told the I-Team they sent an arrest warrant to the U.S. attorney’s office on Friday. The warrant has not been signed. Police said the case was sent back to them for further investigation. The U.S. attorney’s office said it does not comment on uncharged cases.
Brooklyn elections boss promotes fundraiser for Anthony Weiner in NYC Council race
A longtime power player in Brooklyn politics who now serves on the Board of Elections promoted a fundraiser for Anthony Weiner’s City Council campaign – a move one good government group says crosses an ethical line.
Frank Seddio, the one-time Kings County Democratic boss, sent invitations for a March 10 breakfast fundraiser at Junior’s for Weiner, who is running to represent parts of Lower Manhattan. Weiner previously represented southern Brooklyn as a city councilmember and U.S. Representative before torpedoing his career through multiple sexting scandals.
“Anthony is an old friend who will be a great councilman,” reads the invitation from Seddio. “If elected he will be an outstanding public official. Please join us in assisting in his efforts to once again be a credit to the people of NYC.”
