BLACK LIVES MATTER

WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE! TRUST SCIENCE AND MEDICAL EXPERTS! THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC IS FUCKING REAL!
GET VACCINATED! IF THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE VACCINES ARE AVAILABLE, GET IT WHILE IT'S STILL FREE! THE MEDICAL EXPERTS SAY THE VACCINES DO WORK AND IT REDUCES THE RISK OF CORONAVIRUS INFECTION.
HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE NOW! VOTE THESE DUMBASS LAWMAKERS OUT OF OFFICE! STOP SUPPORTING ALL FORMS OF EXTREMISM!
GIVE PUERTO RICO, GUAM, AMERICAN SAMOA, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN THE U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS! GRANT STATEHOOD TO THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. MAKE IT THE DOUGLASS COMMONWEALTH.
GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS STRAIGHT UP TRASH! THE BLOGGER INTERFACE IS A TOTAL DISASTER AND IT'S RIDICULOUS!
WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL! IT'S "SUIT AND TIE" WHITE SUPREMACY ON TELEVISION, RADIO, THE INTERNET AND AMERICAN POLICY!
YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!
EXPECT MORE!
On Friday morning's program of Way Too Early, the progressive agitator announced on the program that it was her last and she will be exploring other venues.
Kasie Hunt has worked for NBC since 2013 and grew to become one of the main staples on that network. She has hosted the weekend show KasieDC before taking over the Way Too Early spot and is a contributor to NBC News, Morning Joe and Sunday Today.
She filled in for Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Willie Geist, Andrea Mitchell and Chuck Todd numerous times. I looked at her as a potential afternoon host or primetime host in the way I've seen Nicolle Wallace and Joy Reid.

The network celebrates their 25th anniversary and of course it was a surprise to many who woke up early to hear Kasie deliver the news, weather and trending topics before Morning Joe.
“Some personal news, as they say — thank you to all of the viewers, reporters, lawmakers and everyone else who’s gotten up extra early to help make @WayTooEarly better. I loved doing this show. More soon! #WayTooEarly” Hunt said on Twitter with a clip of her announcing her departure on air.

Hunt switched to a daily show called Way Too Early in September of last year, becoming the lead-in show for Morning Joe.
“Bittersweet news from me this morning. This is going to be my final broadcast with all of you of up Way Too Early. I’ve really loved spending most of the last year with all of you, seeing pictures of your pets and your babies and learning why you are awake and watching and, of course, bringing you the news,” Hunt said.
In her video announcing her departure, she thanked her team at the show and her viewers for sticking with her through her journey. She said she will be announcing in the next few weeks her next steps.
Willie and Mika were slightly emotional when Kasie announced her departure.
Hunt is married to Matthew Mario Rivera and they have a son.
She lives in New York and Washington, DC.
