In the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, there were surely many people who would have liked to speak with President Trump. So, it's notable, for better or worse, that the president apparently accepted Joe Scarborough's call. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough described some of their conversation, noting that the president called Kirk "a great man," and gave him credit, with his organizing and fundraising efforts, for making the difference in some of the swing states. Scarborough also commended MSNBC President Rebecca Kutler for having condemned the words of Matthew Dowd on Katy Tur's MSNBC show yesterday, in which...

I am not really a fan of Elon Musk however; I can find nothing that I object or disagree with in his diatribe that Musk shares. I must give credit when credit is deserved.

The vote was 45-53. Bipartisan negotiators worked furiously Thursday to reach an agreement that would head off Republicans from using the so-called nuclear option to allow the...

The FBI published a picture of the potential shooter, but unless it was a short barreled rifle with a folding stock, he wasn’t carrying the rifle in the stairwell which means it was already on the roof.
