DJ Daniel's father calls out MSNBC's Maddow for comments on 13-year-old son
Story by Hanna Panreck • 14h

13-year-old brain cancer survivor reacts to being named honorary Secret Service agent by Trump
The father of 13-year-old Devarjaye "DJ" Daniel, who has been battling brain cancer and was honored at President Donald Trump's address to Congress on Tuesday, called out MSNBC host Rachel Maddow for the comments she made about Trump's remarks about his son.

"She needs to shut her mouth if she has nothing nice to say," Theodis Daniel, DJ's father, told the New York Post. "This lady didn’t even serve time in the military."

After the president made DJ an honorary member of the Secret Service during his address, Maddow and fellow MSNBC colleague Nicolle Wallace said the president's honoring of DJ was a "disgusting" political move.

"She does not need to put her bad energy on us," Daniel said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Liberal "compassion" is an ugly thing. :nono:

Good for him defending his son...

Was it for political show, yes/probable, but it has been done by most every politician including Harris and Biden and Obama and numerous republicans too... and it made the kid's year, a year more he may not have/get. I imagine Maddox didn't say a thing about the parade of liberal entertainers that K.H trotted out (often buying)... Trump may not have many musicians and Oprah to parade, but he does have good real Americans.

Actually, it reminds me of a Make-a-Wish sort of event.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

MSNBC has become a PR dumpster fire.  And has strangely tripled down on cringeworthy political discourse by even commenting on DJ.   It was an hour and half speech, and they had to spend time on this embarrassment? 

What Nicole Wallace said would usually result in firing by 99 out of 100 sane news outlets.  Except I don't think there are many left that think sanity and MSNBC should be in the same sentence.

Nicolle Wallace’s Ratings Plunge To New Lows Amid DJ Daniel Controversy

Trending Politics News

March 7, 2025

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace is still in hot water two days after wishing 13-year-old DJ Daniel a “long life” as a police officer while hoping he never has to prevent a J6-style insurrection. The controversy has brought renewed scrutiny to her ratings, which remain at rock bottom since President Donald Trump’s victory last November.

Wallace, who hosts “Deadline” on weekdays between 4 and 6 p.m. EST, was sharply criticized by Trump and his allies after giving Daniel, the president’s guest at his congressional address on Tuesday, a backhanded compliment that also served as a veiled shot at Trump. The young man is in his seventh year of battling brain cancer and was made an honorary U.S. Secret Service agent by Trump during his speech.

“I hope he has a long life as a law enforcement officer. But I hope he never has to defend the U.S. Capitol against Donald Trump’s supporters. And if he does, I hope he isn’t one of the six who loses his life to suicide. And I hope he isn’t one who has to testify against the ones who carried out acts of seditious conspiracy and lived to see Donald Trump pardon those people,” Wallace told Rachel Maddow on Tuesday night following the president’s remarks.

The attention her comments received appears to be the most she has gotten in months.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

JOE CONCHA: MSNBC loses America with sickening take on heroic boy
Opinion by Joe Concha • 21h

FOX News
Karoline Leavitt calls out Nicolle Wallace, 'legacy media' over reaction to Trump's congressional address
"I hope he's alive for another 95 years and I hope he lives the life he wants to live. I hope he never has to defend the United States Capitol against Donald Trump's supporters, and if he does, I hope he isn't one of the six who loses his life to suicide."

That was MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace on Tuesday night, making some of the most odious comments one could imagine involving a 13-year-old cancer survivor who had just been honored by President Donald Trump during his address to the Joint Session of Congress.
 
13-YEAR-OLD CANCER SURVIVOR EARNS STANDING OVATION AS HE BECOMES SECRET SERVICE AGENT DURING TRUMP SPEECH

DJ Daniel, who was given just five months to live five years ago, has since endured 13 brain surgeries and all the complications and pain that went along with the attempts to beat this hideous disease. But he endured, and has openly expressed his desire to one day serve in law enforcement.

This is the kind of story that is pure Americana: Boy arbitrarily faces a death sentence at the age of eight. He fights through, beats all odds, and one night, years later on national TV, the sitting president declares him an honorary member of the Secret Service on the biggest stage for any live event outside of the Super Bowl.

It was a moment in which we should have all put our politics aside in the name of all that is good and inspiring in the world.
