Seething Scarborough—Dems Must Overturn Filibuster for 'Voting Rights'

November 19th, 2021 9:08 AM

Joe Scarborough's leftward lurch  continues apace. We've documented Scarborough's support for a variety of liberal positions, with a particular emphasis on what the Democrats euphemistically call their "voting rights" bill.

Scarborough Whistles Past Biden's Pitiful Poll Numbers

November 15th, 2021 12:07 PM

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough takes a two-fold approach to covering for Biden's terrible poll numbers. First, he claims that the 17% of Democrats who have deserted Biden would "obviously...come home": i.e., vote Democrat, when the electoral chips were down. Scarborough's second move was to quickly pivot away from Biden's bad numbers, and switch to touting support for the recently-…

Morning Joe Admits: Case Against Rittenhouse 'Falling Apart'

November 10th, 2021 2:08 PM

Morning Joe recognizes that the admission by a prosecution witness that he drew first before being shot by Kyle Rittenhouse represents a huge blow to the case against him. First came reporter Gabe Gutierrez, who said that: "especially during cross-examination, the witnesses bolstered Rittenhouse’s claim of self-defense." Next was Mika Brzezinski, who said that Rittenhouse "appears to…

Scarborough Wails: Someday a Bezos-Like Billionaire Will Take Over US!

November 9th, 2021 1:54 PM

Morning Joe was baying for Steve Bannon's blood this morning, demanding that the Justice Department prosecute him for refusing to testify before Congress.

Ten, fifteen years from now, if people get away with this now, we're…

Scarborough Slaps At MSNBC Sore Losers Crying 'CRT Not Real'

November 3rd, 2021 12:35 PM

Joe Scarborough didn't name names. He wants, after all, to be able to walk through the MSNBC cafeteria without being hit in the back of the head with a kale-quinoa salad. But the Morning Joe host did take repeated shots this morning at MSNBC colleagues like Nicolle Wallace and Joy Reid who last night blamed McAuliffe's loss on Youngkin focusing on Critical Race Theory even though, they claimed…

On Wednesday morning, there was night and day difference in the way MSNBC and Fox News covered the gubernatorial race in Virginia as Morning Joe bolstered Democratic candidate and ex-Governor Terry McAuliffe as he attacked Republican Glenn Youngkin.

Scarborough: On Voting Rights, GOP Like Wallace 'In Schoolhouse Door'

October 21st, 2021 12:16 PM

Joe Scarborough has a bad habit of riding verbal hobbyhorses into the ground. As we've often documented, as here and here, once Joe gets what he thinks is a catchy phrase into his noggin, he repeats it—ad nauseum. This morning, Scarborough's hobby horse o' the day was "schoolhouse door," with an explicit reference to George Wallace, who infamously blocked desegregation in such manner.…
