Money, Power, Politics with Stephanie Ruhle: 9 AM ET on MS NOW
Money, Power, Politics with Stephanie Ruhle airs weekdays from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM ET on MS NOW, the network formerly branded MSNBC. It launched on June 15, 2026 and sits directly after Morning Joe. Ruhle spent four years hosting The 11th Hour at 11 PM before moving to the morning.
How to Watch Money, Power, Politics Live Free
The full MS NOW feed, including both hours of the show, streams on our MS NOW live stream free page. It runs in a browser on desktop and mobile with no cable sign-in. The audio-only feed carries the same programming on less data. UK viewers add five hours to Eastern Time, and central Europe adds six. For a few weeks each spring and autumn the US and Europe change their clocks on different dates, and the gap is one hour smaller.
What Changed in the 6 AM to Noon Block
The show did not appear in an empty slot. It took its two hours from the programs on either side of 9 AM, which changes what the network’s morning looks like.
| Time (ET) | Before June 15, 2026 | Now |
|---|---|---|
| 6:00 to 9:00 AM | Morning Joe (four hours, to 10 AM) | Morning Joe, cut to three hours |
| 9:00 to 11:00 AM | End of Morning Joe, then Ana Cabrera Reports | Money, Power, Politics with Stephanie Ruhle |
| 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM | Ana Cabrera Reports (ran 10 AM to noon) | State of Play with Peter Alexander, since August 10 |
| 12:00 to 2:00 PM | Chris Jansing Reports | On the Line with Alicia Menendez |
The practical result is that the nine o’clock hour belongs to a business reporter instead of the end of a political roundtable. The Morning Joe page covers what the shorter show looks like.
What the Show Is
MS NOW describes the program as a combination of The 11th Hour’s hard news coverage with a new take on that show’s signature Nightcap roundtable. It is based in New York and, according to The Hollywood Reporter, uses a live audience and interactive elements. The title is the pitch: Ruhle told The Hollywood Reporter she wants viewers to follow the thread running between money, power and politics, and her background is in finance rather than in the Washington press corps.
Who Stephanie Ruhle Is
Ruhle graduated from Lehigh University in 1997 with a degree in international business and spent the first part of her career on Wall Street: hedge fund sales at Credit Suisse from 1997 to 2003, then credit sales at Deutsche Bank, where she became a managing director. She joined Bloomberg Television in October 2011, co-hosted several of its programs and became a managing editor and news anchor, then left in April 2016 for MSNBC. Her Wikipedia entry carries the full career record.
At MSNBC she hosted a daytime hour and co-hosted the Saturday show Velshi & Ruhle with Ali Velshi. She rotated through The 11th Hour after Brian Williams left in December 2021 and was named its permanent anchor on January 27, 2022. Velshi, her old Saturday co-host, now holds that chair.
