Popular podcaster and UFC commentator Joe Rogan often discusses several buzzing political topics on his show, Joe Rogan Experience. At times, Rogan has made it abundantly clear that he’s not afraid to talk about politics. However, what he doesn’t want, is for people to twist his words for their own gain. Unfortunately for Rogan, he believes that happened this month with MSNBC as they tried to push a narrative supporting Vice President Kamala Harris.
During a previous episode of Rogan’s podcast, he spoke highly of former congressman Tulsi Gabbard. Apparently, his words were edited by MSNBC to make it seem like he was lauding Kamala Harris. Interestingly, a few weeks after that Gabbard exposed the cable news network. When Rogan came across that, he was seemingly displeased. As such, the podcaster even lashed out at MSNBC for editing the clip.
I’m not suing MSNBC. But this is what MSNBC did: they took a clip of me talking about Tulsi Gabbard and they edited it up and made it look like I was saying great things about Kamala Harris. I was talking about Tulsi Gabbard being a congresswoman for eight years...Joe Rogan via JRE #2195
To Joe Rogan, this wasn’t just a case of sloppy editing. He believes it was a calculated move to push a certain narrative. Initially, there were several rumors about Rogan planning to sue MSNBC as well. However, with the recent revelations as it seems, he won’t opt for that path. As for the news channel, they issued a correction statement addressing that the viral video has been removed from their social handle.
This is not the first time Joe Rogan has found himself in the middle of political controversies. His recent praise for independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sparked a lot of discussion. When it comes to Rogan’s political views, he has often labeled himself as a centrist. However, Rogan does not seem to have a favorable opinion of Vice President Kamala Harris.
Similarly, Harris’ political opponent, Donald Trump has not always recieved a warm reception on JRE. In fact, several times in the past the former President has expressed desire to be on the show. Unfortunately, Rogan has declined to bring him on the show in fear of giving him a platform to spark controversy.

Rogan stated that most of Kamala Harris’s statements are quite contradictory to each other. Moreover, he mentioned that Harris lacks the intensity that Trump or any other candidate holds while speaking to the mass public. Interestingly, weeks after that episode, Rogan did seemingly enjoy one of Harris’ recent public gatherings.
