On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, like many other media outlets, the aftermath of the devastation continues to be the main topic of discussion. This time they teamed up with New Yorker staff writer Jelani Cobb to decry “Second Amendment fundamentalists” and political “zealotry” on the…

With The Psaki Show out to pasture until it resurfaces on Peacock, White House press briefings continued on Monday with Psaki’s former deputy and former MoveOn.org and MSNBC activist, Karine Jean-Pierre. Predictably, the liberal media showered their fellow progressive with syrupy platitudes and questions from the left demanding the federal government crusade against Fox News host Tucker…

On Morning Joe, MSNBC Republican Elise Jordan demands that AG Merrick Garland "get in the game" and "fight" Republicans, by prosecuting Members of Congress who haven't replied to subpoenas. She says the actions of the House January 6th committee is legitimate. But the panel frets that if the Republicans take back the House in January, they will exact "revenge" by investigating Democrats,…

Morning Joe leads its show by mocking Donald Trump fumbling over the name of J.D. Vance, the candidate he has endorsed in the Ohio Republican Senate primary. But the show rarely if ever reports Biden's frequent gaffes.

Morning Joe has given a general thumbs-down on Elon Musk's Twitter takeover. there was an exchange between Mika and NYT Washington bureau chief, Bumiller. The latter uttered that classic line, "we all believe in free speech, BUT . . .

On Morning Joe, Obama's former National Security Council specialist on Syria says that Obama's "infamous" failure to enforce his redline on the use of chemical weapons in Syria could bite us in Ukraine, because Putin doesn't believe there would be any repercussions for his use of chemical weapons. 

Thursday’s Psaki Show reminded viewers of a sad but necessary reminder that too many in the liberal media will never relent on fear porn surrounding the coronavirus and their penchant for restrictions on everyday life. Such was the case with numerous reporters pushing the press secretary from the left to reinstitute them due to a new omicron variant and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff’s positive…

Joe Scarborough had two general modes of partisan reaction to everything President Trump did -- either "snarky" or "infuriated." But on Wednesday's Morning Joe, Scaborough made clear his anger at any people who dared to offer "snarky" critiques of President Biden's "historic" handling of the Ukraine situation. And in particular, Scarborough would not tolerate anyone suggesting that…

Morning Joe makes excuses for Biden's pitiful polling numbers.  Elise Jordan says his bad numbers are "overhyped," and not his fault, just something "situational." Joe Scarborough says there would have been high inflation no matter who was president!

The opening segment of the December 23 Morning Joe was one — interminable — tongue bath for Joe Biden. On everything from the omicron variant to the supply chain, to inflation, the panel lavished praise on Ol' Saint Joe. The praise reached its absurd apotheosis with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski twice -- joking-not-joking -- speaking of a "Christmas miracle." Scarborough ended…

Morning Joe was in no mood today to give Donald Trump credit for his vigorous advocacy of the COVID vaccine during an interview with Candace Owens. Nope: it was just a nefarious ploy, with an eye to 2024, to win back the suburbs.
