Can’t believe someone would actually complain about you laughing/smiling. I welcome it.

Did Tucker Carlson copy your laugh? Sad to say I've noticed similarities, but yours seems more authentic (granted, not a high bar), and I assume you wouldn't copy him?

I agree, laughing keeps us sane. At least it helps! I was wondering what Neal Katyal is up to these days, really glad to know he’s still around.

Yes we love anti-labor warriors who also defend corps who engage in child slavery.

I didn’t realize he is a controversial figure.

Do an all caps hour long broadcast for cathartic purposes.

Love that guy!

Chris, I love it when you laugh, period.

I hear you. I’m screaming though.

We laugh to keep from crying, right Chris?

The evangel of the cult of centrism.

Thank you Chris!

🥱

then SCREAM!! There's not much to laugh about; There is alot to scream about! It is past time! #SAYTHEWORD #AUTOCRACY not Administration #OCCUPATION not Trump's plan #PROPOGANDA no longer collected data, just Trump's "big brain" farts

I can understand that..I'm laugh or cry myself

Neil was one of the lawyers who worked at a law firm, Milbank, that caved in to trump's demands in the very early days. Didn't he/they promise to do pro bono legal work for ICE or some shit? I want to hear him explain that before anything else.

Same. It’s akin to whistling past the graveyard. Levity is a good thing.

Always smile and laugh, or at least snicker and grin! It keeps 'them' on their toes because 'they' are intrinsically insecure and perpetually paranoid about what you may have been up to!

I like it when Chris laughs! Don’t stop laughing Chris.

I used to watch Neal on Lawrence’s show all the time. I miss him! Happy to see him with Chris today.

Thank You Neal ! I was wondering if you were at Burning Man this year but glad to see him win his case against Tariffs !

😁👍

NEAL HAS BEEN BUSY PREPARING CASES IN HIS NEW LAW FIRM AGAINST THIS REGIME...HE ALWAYS HAD AND ALWAYS BE ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS

Better a laugh than fussing with a belt buckle/pant flap every 10 seconds during a monolog like a certain late night host. 😬

Thank you for being real! I start my day with your show on Peacock the next morning - the only news show I can watch now all the way to end. It’s all so bleak. Laughing in surprise or disbelief or just at the insanity of the moment is much better for my sanity

OTOH, a well-timed scream on national live television could be a watershed moment in the manner of Howard Beale's "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take it anymore" cri de coeur. p.s. I am not implying you're anything like Chayefsky's character. Arguably, you're the antithesis.

Or cry. Been doing that a lot lately.

rude

Keep on laughing.

Your laughter perfectly punctuates the absurdity of the times we find ourselves in. It lets me know I’m not unjustified in questioning my very sanity!👍

I personally love it. Also, congratulations on your Obama props! That was fantastic!

I find it relatable 🤷🏽‍♀️

Double whatever.

I agree…I’d rather you scream. The laughing is infuriating.

I hope all these retiring republicans take the time to be ashamed and think about how they can help to fix it

Yay! Neal’s alive!! Not as smiley as usual, even after a win for democracy. And, I’ve been thinking about the idea of an I don’t give a fuck about you tax on businesses, but what about taxes not based on how you’re doing individually, but based on the minimum standard of living + ability to pay?

'Porch-pundit' - now THAT'S annoying. Keep up your good work!

A screaming @chrislhayes.bsky.social broadcast would make for a huge ratings bump.

People say @nealkatyal.bsky.social got caught up in the collapse of the Orgy Dome at Burning Man......

Usually I laugh involuntarily just before I’m about to lose it, so I admire your self control, Chris.

Lately with this admin all I hear is screaming… Then I realize the screaming is coming from me

😂😂

America loves you, Mr. Hayes 😊

Friendly, smart and generous.

I love your laugh! And damn, it's either laugh or cry these days. Laughing is better.

Me too‼️. 😂😂. Do you Chris…I get it! Cracks me up becuz I’m laughing too at the BS⁉️

I find myself doing both simultaneously often these days

Katyal is an advocate for child slavery.

Or cry 🥸

Keep smiling and laughing! Nothing is better! 😃😂

It's not annoying Chris. Congratulations on the book mention. I shed a tear of joy for you.

John Oliver does the same. It is that or scream.

We're good with laughing or screaming. You do you, Chris!

Neal Katyal?! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! You're rehabbing that guy?!

I’d be fine with an occasional scream!

I LOVE when you laugh. Your show has been 🔥lately!

You should smile more Chris

I love this reply! Like this guy thinks he should be able to tell Chris Hayes when he should smile or laugh. If it ‘annoys’ him so much, he should watch Fox News.

Are we sure Fox News isn't produced in a sound stage in Hollywood? Written and produced by your favourite president, the one and only, greatest ever, blah, blah, blah! AI Barbie and Ken, presenting and providing you with everything you are instructed & allowed to think until the next presentation.

… keep laughing, Chris, it’s appropriate!

Adding support to the laughing, your laugh is a spot of joy in a weary world and the person who criticized it maybe needs it the most.

Quit having child slavery defender Neal Katyal on your show. I turn off whatever show he is on immediately because him cropping up on "progressive" outlets is a sign that the producers have zero long term memory.

"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward." Kurt Vonnegut

I find the laughter appropriate.

Not annoying. Why did AI take over my last response? I didn’t ask it to

Not annoying at all. Sometimes the news is just so weird—you have to laugh on camera still in interview

Agreed, if we don't laugh we will be screaming or cursing. Laugh on Chris Hayes.

Gotta get it out somehow! Mine is dark jokes!

Feel that!! 💯

I FEEL THIS!!!

It's not annoying.

Once again someone wants to denied people's 1st Amendment rights. Keep doing what you are doing. Although, you could scream sometimes because some things Trump is doing is scary.

The fact that you’re not screaming is comforting. We’re in a rough spot but it’s going to be ok.

Hasn’t Katyal done some pretty reprehensible things dressed in the gloss of “representing a client”?

Having been dragged “through the looking glass” 15 years ago, I recognize your laugh. I laugh like that a lot It truly is one’s way of not screaming or winding up in the Psych Ward

Never stop laughin', buddy! Also; totally scream if ya need. c:

Also... Maybe stop briefly if it becomes difficult to breathe or function to live. 🙃 That's my "haha" for the month! I'm out! ^^;

You laugh your ass of Chris. I personally love your whimsy. Yeah…I said it!

Laughter is a bodily reaction to the brain failing to properly comprehend something, sort of like the paper getting jammed in a printer

Neal Katyal is a monster and it is pretty disappointing to me that you would have him on your show.

Uhhh, he has to defend his client (megacorp that enslaves children) just like any lawyer

🙄🙄🙄

what are you rolling your eyes about exactly? His defense of child slavery? Or maybe his law firm's capitulation to Trump?

oh or maybe it's his glowing praise of Brett Kavanaugh that helped him get confirmed

For me it's the shirts he gets at Dan Flashes

You are a tiny baby 👍🏼

👍🏼

Thats bull***t Chris. You did it during Biden admin too. It is annoying. I stopped watching your show because of it!
