Super infestation! Bed Bugs reportedly found in liberal MSNBC’s studio home to Rachel Maddow sending network scrambling to exterminate the pests ahead of Super Tuesday election coverage
MSNBC employees were reportedly forced out of Rachel Maddow’s studio after bedbugs were found just days before the left-wing network’s Super Tuesday election coverage.
An “unidentified insect” was spotted in studio 3A, home of The Rachel Maddow Show, and the networks beefed up special election coverage, according to an internal memo obtained by The New York Post.
Additional studios on the third floor of 30 Rockefeller Plaza were reportedly closed and an exterminator was called to handle the studio, green rooms and control room.
The memo stated, “An environmental K-9 detection team will ensure recovery efforts are completed and will make an additional pass through extended areas of newsrooms (on the third floor).”
An NBC source told The Post: “They are scrambling. They have already borrowed an unused local studio for some shows in recent weeks. So the studio space is tight.’

Additional studios on the third floor of 30 Rockefeller Plaza were reportedly closed and an exterminator came to treat the studio, green rooms and control room.
Sources said the studios were reopened about an hour after the memo was distributed, MSNBC anchors returned to their desks and the network would produce their Super Tuesday coverage from the studio.
Thousands of voters from fifteen states go to the polls for what has been known as Super Tuesday since the 1970s.
For Republicans, 865 delegates will be elected, about a third of the total, and a large chunk of the 1,215 a candidate needs to win the party’s presidential nomination.
The states of Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina, Michigan, Idaho, Missouri and North Dakota, along with Washington DC and the US Virgin Islands, will all have voted in favor of Super Tuesday.
This year, 15 states will vote on Super Tuesday: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont and Virginia.
Former President Donald Trump has won every early contest except Sunday’s primary in Washington, D.C., where Nikki Haley defeated the former president among the small population of registered Republicans living in the nation’s capital.
The Republican frontrunner has a chance to win all states on Tuesday, making Nikki Haley’s path to the White House even narrower than before.
He is already focused on November and his likely general election rematch with President Joe Biden.

Former South Carolina Governor Haley’s future hangs in the balance, and a loss in most states, including California, will make a comeback virtually impossible.
President Joe Biden could face more “uncommitted” challenges during the Super Tuesday Democratic primaries after supporters of Palestine achieved success in the state of Michigan last week.
The campaign is urging Democrats to vote “uncommitted” instead of President Joe Biden during the Democratic presidential primaries to protest the administration’s support for Israel’s war in Gaza.
More than 100,000 voters voted uncommitted in Michigan, demonstrating the president’s serious problems with Democratic voters in a key swing state.
Other states mobilizing voters to vote uncommitted in Tuesday’s primaries include Washington, Colorado and Minnesota.
