Lol! When he arrived at the hospital in NY from Tortola he faced the David Koch sign on the hospital building.

The commentary about the Koch Brothers having done good things and the need to be able to hold ambivalence was better than 9/10ths of what any of the media stations will admit is really what the world is like.

Would be nice if it stuck but I'll wait to see.

Welcome back, man.

The 62-year-old political analyst shed light on his physical state, saying that the taxi collision left him with a fractured hip and injuries to his legs that required surgery for the first time in his life.

After trading a few friendly jabs with Melber, whom O’Donnell jokingly called out for being more concerned with his vacation time than with his colleague's health, The Last Word host revealed that he is expected to be back on air in June.

Wow--Lawrence hit a home run tonight!!! His moving heartfelt tribute to MSNBC, his surgeon, his nurses & caregivers, his big brother Michael was just beautiful. Great to see Lawrence back in TLW anchor chair.
