Mika's Surprise Take On Pardons: 'Donald Trump Kept His Word, Joe Biden Did Not!'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/23/2025 9:05:24 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Surprising candor from Mika Brzezinski this morning in comparing the Trump to the Biden pardons.

An agitated Joe Scarborough kicked off the discussion on today's Morning Joe by insisting that things would not "end well" for Mike Johnson, Donald Trump, and the Republicans by downplaying the Trump pardons and focusing on Biden's pardons.

[snip]

That's when Mika delivered her surprising coup de grace:

"As hard as it is to say, this is his right as president . . . Donald Trump kept his word and Joe Biden did not . . . It is his right, and he promised. And then there's the counter-narrative, which is also undeniable. Joe Biden promised that he would not pardon his son or his family, and he did."

Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

One of those very rare days when Mika tells it like it is.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

wow.... a liberal news person actually tells the truth!

Trump said over and over and over before the election he would pardon the J6 hostages. People voted for him knowing that. The people have spoken, and liberals need to STFU

“wow.... a liberal news person actually tells the truth!”

the only problem is viewership — how many people actually watch the show for it to maybe make an impact on liberals?????

Yes, let's give credit to one Dumb Democrat for finally stating an obvious truth that everyone already knew. But everything else the Dumb Democrat Mika says is nonsense.

Is her hubby Joe Scarborough still standing behind his long-held claim that Bye-dein is "sharp as a tack," both "cognitively" and "analytically?"

Over 75 Million Dumb Democrats voted for kamaLa + Tampon Tim Waltz: "Joy!" (smh)

I think Democrats become weary of defending all the lies.

Jonathan Turley, a lifelong Democrat with more true liberal credibility than either Mika or Joe, became so weary of all the lies that he gave up defending the Clinton crime family and then the Biden crime family some time ago.

But Mika and Joe are NOT Jonathan Turley and this is merely a one time thingy where Mika let her guard down and spoke the truth instead of defending the lie.

"how many people actually watch the show"

I think it is automatically baked into the formula, that when a driveby reporterette makes a statement such as this, the right wing media will pick up the sound bite and run with it... almost making that the story.

It will get views, just not on their program.

She may be learning that the Market demand for Journalists whose full focus is to tell the truth is much greater than those whose primary focus is Propaganda.
