MSNBC is gearing up for the impending inauguration of Donald Trump with a slate of extra special programming set to launch on Monday, January 20. Among the programming updates is The Rachel Maddow Show‘s return to a nightly schedule, which will run as such for Trump’s first 100 days in office.
As viewers will recall, Maddow‘s news program previously shifted from a nightly schedule to a weekly one, but with the upcoming re-introduction of Trump to the White House, Maddow will broadcast from the anchor desk every weeknight at 9/8c, offering viewers in-depth analysis of the key issues facing the country as Trump kicks off his second term.
After April 30, The Rachel Maddow Show will return to its regular schedule of Mondays at 9/8c.

“This is a consequential next chapter in American politics. The moment we’re in requires us to cover the early days of the new administration from all over the country – from the nation’s capital, where policy is being implemented, to talking to those in key communities and constituencies impacted by those policies. No one is better equipped to bring those stories from the field to MSNBC viewers than our intrepid Alex Wagner,” said MSNBC President Rashida Jones.
