Fox news reports that Former MSNBC star Chris Matthews, who was forced to exit the progressive network in 2020, irked liberals on Sunday by declaring he tried to warn fans of his former program "we were headed too far left" as a nation. 

"I want Hardball fans to know how I appreciate your faith in me. 2022 could be a great time to show what we’ve learned. I tried to warn we were headed too far left," Matthews tweeted. 

Matthews – a moderate Democrat who was replaced by the far-left Joy Reid when he left MSNBC – shocked viewers in March 2020 by announcing he would immediately step down from his program amid a series of controversies. During his on-air remarks, the longtime MSNBC host then referenced claims of sexual harassment against him by a journalist who previously appeared on his show.
