Morning Joe

On Tuesday's Morning Joe, Scarborough reacted vehemently to the news that a federal judge has ordered the unconditional release of John Hinckley Jr., the attempted assassin of President Reagan. Scarborough was similarly outraged at the recommendation of a California parole board earlier this year to grant parole to Sirhan B. Sirhan, the Palestinian who assassinated Robert F. Kennedy over his…

The very fate of western liberalism with the U.S. Constitution is now in the hands of Joe Manchin and Sinema according to the sanctimonious master of hyperbole, Jon Meacham.

On Morning Joe, a screaming Joe Scarborough plays the hard-nosed Democrat strategist, telling Dems they need to play hardball with Republicans on raising the debt limit.

It’s as if Big Tech has not already been censoring enough. Now the Biden administration is pushing platforms in an even more censorious direction. COVID-19, like many national crises, has been used to push for more government tyranny. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki explained in a September 24 Morning Joe interview that platforms don't censor Americans enough: “As we’re in the middle of…

Morning Joe—in the persons of Scarborough, Richard Haass, Anne Gearan, and Willie Geist—tore into Biden's mishandling of the cancellation of Australia's submarine-building contract with France in favor of one with the US. But Biden had one, lonely, backer: Mika Brzezinski. She piped up throughout the long segment, doing her best to defend Biden.   

There’s a new battle brewing over the federal debt ceiling. Ten years ago, after the Obama administration instigated massive federal spending to deal with the Great Recession, Republicans insisted on long-term deficit reduction, and the liberal media slammed them as nihilists, hostage-takers, terrorists, suicide bombers and zombie vampires.

On Monday's Morning Joe show on MSNBC, contributor Kurt Bardella delivered his latest gratuitous trash talk against Republicans, accusing them of labeling minorities as "dirt" and "the enemy." The frequent guest offered no examples of these provocative claims.

Morning Joe defended General Milley this morning. Promising to tip off China to any attack ordered by President Trump? Why, that's "helpful." Milley "didn't do anything wrong." In fact, "we owe him a debt of thanks!" The only "problem" is that Constitution thingy!  Said David Ignatius of the Washington Post: "The problem is, and I think every single thing that was done by those three people,…

The most serious charge against General Milley is that, without notifying the President and Commander-in-Chief, Milley agreed to give China advance notice of an impending attack. Yet in defending Milley on Morning Joe today, Joe Scarborough outrageously suppressed any mention of that allegation. Instead he cast Milley as issuing a stern warning to China. 

On Tuesday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe joined The New York Times in hitting Democrats from the left and whining that the plan by left-wing lawmakers to hike taxes by $2 trillion to fund massive socialist spending was too “moderate.” After hyping a Times article that wailed about the proposed legislation failing to “dent the vast fortunes” of the wealthy, the show’s liberal host launched into a tirade…

Appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Friday, Washington Post book critic Carlos Lozada chose to remember September 11th by scolding America for succumbing to “fervor and blood lust” while fighting the war on terror in the two decades since the attack. His way of marking that tragic day was to accuse the nation of racism and following its “lowest impulses.”

When it comes to the Texas abortion law, the liberal trope o' the times is the poor, besieged, "Uber driver." The notion is that Uber drivers who transport women to abortion clinics will be sued by private citizens under the law, seeking an award of up to $10,000. The "Uber driver" trope is a flaming red herring. It would be difficult if not impossible for a plaintiff to prove that a driver…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough uses the great work of the American military, invokes the spirit of 9/11, and the generosity of Americans welcoming Afghan refugees, to deflect criticism from President Biden over his Afghanistan fiasco. Scarborough says he is "really proud" of America, and offers not a word of blame for Biden.

On Thursday’s Morning Joe, one of MSNBC’s favorite bomb-throwing pundits, far-left Princeton professor Eddie Glaude, actually compared the new pro-life law in Texas to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 that precipitated the Civil War. In addition, Glaude and his fellow leftist panelists hoped Democrats could use the issue to gin up turnout in the midterms.
