Morning Joe

On Morning Joe, Jonathan Lemire says there's skepticism the hostage deal will hold because Netanyahu -- not Hamas! -- might "submarine" it.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough calls it an "insult" and a "lie" to claim that the US military has gone woke. He is very wrong, and we've got the proof.

In Eugene Robinson's Washington Post column defending Biden's record as president, one serious criticism he makes is Biden's inability to do more to prevent Israel's "atrocities" in Gaza.

In a fit of world-class revisionism, Morning Joe credits Jimmy Carter, more than Ronald Reagan, for the fall of the Soviet Union, and analogizes Carter to Abraham Lincoln.

Morning Joe airs a deceptive edit of LA Mayor Karen Bass stonewalling a reporter asking her if she owes an apology to LA residents regarding the wildfire. In Morning Joe's video, the reporter asks one question, then the clip immediately transitions to a later statement Bass makes saying she's directing all resources to the fire. The video omits that for 90 seconds, Bass stonewalled the…

On Morning Joe, Scarborough climbed up on his hobby horse, and for the umpteeth time since November 5th wailed about how it was only a "1% election." Forget that Trump won EVERY swing state. That he won the popular vote. That the overwhelming proportion of districts, red and blue, swung right. Scarborough also tried to make the case that things were better under Biden than he was given credit…

President emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations Richard Haass had an interesting take on Tuesday’s installment of Morning Joe on MSNBC. Ahead of former President Jimmy Carter’s state funeral, he claimed that Carter was actually the “forerunner” to Ronald Reagan.

Joe Scarborough leads his comments on the certification today of Trump's victory with a story about a Capitol Hill police officer who committed suicide after J6. But he left out some important details.

In the clip it airs of President Biden's remarks on the ISIS-inspired terror attack in New Orleans, Morning Joe edits out the moment when Biden totally loses his ability to speak and has to scramble his way back.

Last week, we caught Joe Scarborough banging his desk in frustration as he inveighed against "billionaires" and wondered how the Democrats could possibly have missed the "layup" of beating the Republicans in November's election, given the disparity in income between those billionaires and working class Americans. Today, Scarborough made it clear that he has signed on to the project of…

On Morning Joe, New Republic editor Michael Tomasky blames tne "right-wing media" for the public's approval of Trump's transition.  He singles out Rupert Murdoch for particular opprobrium. Tomasky is nostalgic for the days when there was "common civic agreement about basic morality in public life." Translation: when the liberal media set the agenda.

Thursday's front page at The New York Times featured a story headlined "Biden, Wearied and Stinging, Prepares to Exit." White House reporters Peter Baker and Zolan Kanno-Youngs were blunt in the third paragraph about Biden's twilight. "Time is catching up with Mr. Biden....it is hard to imagine that he seriously thought he could do the world’s most stressful job for another four years…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough repeatedly cites the election results in Wisconsin to downplay the scope of Trump's win.  He doesn't mention that Trump flipped  the state after having lost it in 2020. Scarborough also buries the fact that the electorate shifted right in all 50 states, and in 89% of counties.

Joe Scarborough is frustrated by the Democrats having lost Ohio to the Republicans, despite low household income in Ohio, and yet voters supporting a Republican government "of, by, and for" billionaires.  If you just read the transcript, you might have thought it was Bernie Sanders, the socialist senator from Vermont, not Scarborough.
