Morning Joe

Marking the 56th anniversary of passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965, on Friday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe pushed the panic button when it came to Republican-backed voting reforms advancing in states across the country and the failure of Democrats in Congress to force through a federal takeover of elections. The hysterical panel feared that GOP legislatures enacting new election laws…

Was Joe Scarborough ever a good ol' Southern boy, as he still likes to portray himself? In any case, that persona has definitively disappeared. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough exposed himself as the worst kind of condescending Upper West Side snob. The show devoted much of its opening segment to attacking Florida Governor Ron DeSantis over his Covid stance. At one point, after playing a…

When it came to coverage of the Andrew Cuomo sexual-harrassment scandal, it was a tale of two networks this morning. MSNBC's Morning Joe devoted its entire first half-hour to covering the story in all its lurid detail. And CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, who advised brother Andrew during the scandal, was referenced no fewer than nine times. Meanwhile, over on CNN's New Day, the Cuomo segment was…

With Joe Scarborough leading the charge, Morning Joe absolutely tore into the New York teachers union today for its rejection of a vaccine mandate for teachers. Scarborough called the union's position "ridiculous," and accused the unions of "whining" for months that they couldn't return to classrooms until there was a vaccine, but now that vaccines are available, rejecting the mandate.

Morning Joe regular Dave Aronberg, the Palm Beach County State Attorney, twice claimed today that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's stance on Covid constitutes—of all things—"socialism." 

On Friday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe kept pushing left-wing hysteria about Republican voting reform laws in states across the country and cheering on the scheme by Democrats to have the federal government take over elections nationwide. One pundit even went so far as to vilely compare legislation by GOP lawmakers in various states to the brutal 1955 murder of black teenager Emmett Till.  …

Morning Joe has a history of trashing Mitch McConnell, with Joe Scarborough having slimed him as "Moscow Mitch," and even more disgustingly, as "Chokehold Mitch."  But on today's show, Morning Joe went out of its way to praise the once [and future?] Senate Majority Leader for his advocacy of Covid vaccinations. In doing so, Morning Joe acknowledged that hearing praise of McConnell might be…

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Wednesday, co-host Mika Brzezinski eagerly cheered left-wing media mogul Norman Lear using the occasion of his 99th birthday to pen an op-ed in The Washington Post demanding Democrats take over and rig all future elections by passing federal voting legislation. She then turned to the head of the NAACP to further push the partisan crusade. 

Substitute Morning Joe co-host Jonathan Lemire channels the supposed fret of foreign leaders that "there could be a return to Trump or Trumpism if Biden, let's say, serves only one term and Donald Trump or someone like him follows him into office."

After President Biden, during a CNN town hall Wednesday night, repeated his blatant lie that Republican voting reform bills were “Jim Crow on steroids,” MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Thursday predictably doubled down on the false accusation. In the midst of a panel discussion touting Biden’s dishonest claim, left-wing pundits ranted that GOP election laws in states across the country were…

On MSNBC, Associated Press "reporter" Jonathan Lemire, who moonlights as an MSNBC "analyst," commenting on the January 6th committee, accuses Republicans of a "deeply-cynical move" while praising Democrats "good-faith, bipartisan" efforts.

Morning Joe's opening segment today consisted of one, long complaint about the unvaccinated hordes that are going to make us all have to mask up again. Mika Brzezinski condescended to the Americans of Walmart, saying they would be "fighting over whether or not they have to wear their masks." Mika can't imagine a mask squabble among the hoi polloi at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Morning Joe served up a classic example today of the liberal media's double standard when it comes to covering Republicans versus Democrats. The subject was the fleeing from the Lone Star state of Texas state House Democrats, and Republican efforts to return them to the state to do their legislative duty. 

It's not often that the left-wing media openly admit Democrats are on the losing side of an issue. That’s why we here at NewsBusters are always happy to report on it when it happens. During a segment on Morning Joe, MSNBC’s political analyst Elise Jordan exposed viewers to a rare moment of honesty, not something that viewers of the leftist cable channel are accustomed to seeing.
