Ed Schultz

Since when is it against the law to meet with people from another country?

I'm prairie-dwelling, pro-union, pro-health care, and pro-education.

Squelching debate by branding it un-American is dishonest, dangerous, and, in itself, hateful.

All Americans want what is best for America!

The righties connect with Joe Beercan better than the Democrats do.

Not to get too grandiose about it, but I really believe I'm saying things a lot of Americans want someone to say.

I think you can be in disagreement with a president you support without being disrespectful or nasty or snide.

We never see any journalism or documentaries on the oceans and what we're doing on this Earth and how it affects the oceans and how important they are. I'm intrigued by it. It's almost an untold story.

Many mines in the world are unsafe. They are dangerous as hell.

The Left has been frustrated because President Obama has allowed the Republicans to run all over him.

I hunt and fish, and I don't fly on Lear jets, and I don't smoke Cuban cigars.

I feel very comfortable about being fair to Trump. I think I've been very fair to him.

I've never really figured out why the media covers the media, you know?

I was the first reporter in the country to get a U.S. Senator on the air during the 9/11 attacks - I was broadcasting from the Hart Building.

I never shop - my wife takes care of all of that.

Big money and corporate interest drown out a lot of voices.

RT completes the picture of the events in the U.S. and around the globe, giving viewers access to a range of stories, voices, and opinions and a real opportunity to speak their minds.

Many times, I was told what to lead with on MSNBC. Many times, I was told what I was not going to do.

I guess when I got to MSNBC in 2009, I brought Bernie Sanders to cable probably more than anybody else.

I want to prove every day that liberal talkers can be successful at business.

The average commercial radio listener in America is not looking for lofty, intellectual subjects. This isn't brain surgery. It's about striking the passion of the people.

This is what the Republican party stands for, though: racism.

When union membership goes down, so do wages.

I've fished since I was a teenager. It's one of the most fantastic activities, and there's so much to it. I just love every facet of it. I've never had a bad day fishing.

There aren't any poor cable hosts.

I've always viewed the 'Ed Show' as being a voice for the voiceless.

Going to an interracial high school shaped my understanding of social justice and racial inequality.

I have a TV show, a radio show. I've authored two books. I own a construction company, own a commercial fishing lodge, and am a pilot.

When Bernie Sanders was announcing that he was going to be a candidate for the nomination of the Democratic Party in Burlington, Vermont, I was the only cable host between FOX, MSNBC, and CNN that was there to cover it live.

I'm conservative on some issues. I'm progressive on most.

Every time the conservatives get in trouble, they start pounding on this ridiculous idea that the liberals want to take their microphones. They want to get Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity off the air. That is a straw man argument throw out by the conservative broadcasters who are so out of material they are going to fear-monger their listeners.

When people sit in front of a microphone, they feel empowered.

You can do TV and radio without the personal insults.

I'm not going to apologize for my success. How I live is no secret.

There's all kinds of envy out there on the Left.

Anyone who follows me on Twitter knows I - I show pictures of my airplanes.

I support collective bargaining everywhere.

Whether you like it or not, Santorum is as good as President Obama with a crowd.

I was pretty much a warmonger and a pretty greedy guy. I always wanted to make as much money as I possibly could and felt the downtrodden didn't deserve a break.

It took a few years before I realized there was life after football.

The president of the United States, Barack Obama, deserves the benefit of the doubt and our support in his decision to use military force in Libya.

I think the United States has a nasty human-rights record.

I do think that every super power on the globe has a very poor record on human rights.

I'm not prepared to be governor of New York. I'm a radio guy; I do a radio show. A radio show is entertainment. You need to move it along. When does a politician move anything along?

There's so much in the media that's not the truth.

There is evidence Rand Paul has a real problem with women reporters.

If you do a cable show, you have a radio show, whatever, if you're fat and you've got red hair, look, they're going to pick on you.

Oh yea, I was a conservative. I was probably hard-line, preoccupied with how much money I would make and how far I would go. But I began seeing a lady who directs a homeless clinic in Fargo. One of our first get-togethers was to a Salvation Army dinner, where I met some jobless Vietnam veterans. It started my transition, opened my eyes.

How did a prairie-dwelling, red-meat-eating, gun-toting former conservative become the hope of liberal radio? It all started with this annoying habit I have of speaking my mind.

When it comes down to the devil in the detail of dealing with the issues... and making real change, Trump, you don't have it. You've never had it.
