"Paul Waldman and Tom Schaller join Morning Joe to discuss their new book 'White Rural Rage: The Threat to American Democracy'." 'White Rural Rage' looks at the most likely group to abandon democratic norms (8 min Morning Joe, Mika interview)

Elon Musk has become the liberal media's second-most-hated man, behind only Orange Man Bad. Witness today's opening of Morning Joe, wherein Mika Brzezinski proclaimed "Thursday was a very rough day for Elon Musk," gloating over Musk's SpaceX Starship exploding shortly after liftoff yesterday.To our knowledge, after countless hours of suffering through Morning Joe, Mika has never been equally enthused about a North Korean rocket going kaput! Then again, Kim Jong-un is merely a nuclear-armed dictator and avowed enemy of America. Whereas Musk occasionally makes life a bit uncomfortable for liberals! Get the rest of the story and view video here.

Morning Joe's pretense of journalism hit an abysmal new low today as Mika Brzezinski pretended to question George Conway about the sex scandal engulfing John Weaver, a co-founder along with Conway of the Lincoln Project. Conway had been on the show to thump the tub for Trump's impeachment over the January 6 riot, and in making her goodbyes, Mika apologized for asking an eensy-weensy question about it, saying she'd be "remiss" if she didn't. Other than saying it was terrible and appalling, Conway utterly dodged the "question." Stammering and stumbling, he replied: CONWAY: I didn’t know John very well. I...

MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski said Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump should be investigated after he leaves office. Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “Mika, you know, President-elect Biden is already facing calls from some in the Democratic Party to investigate and prosecute President Trump. One of the senior prosecutors in the Mueller investigation just also came forward and said that the next attorney general should hold Trump accountable for any criminal behavior in office despite how divisive that could be for the country. What’s the best move for the sake of the country, in your opinion?

Even Biden's most ardent supporters can't deny that Ol' Joe has lost a mental step -- or three. Unable to refute the irrefutable, the liberal media has resorted to trying to claim that President Trump, too, is not as sharp as he used to be. On today's Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski tried to recruit Axios's Jonathan Swan to the cause -- and failed spectacularly. Discussing Swan's interview of yesterday with President Trump, Mika suggested to Swan that Trump had been "confused," and hadn't "computed" the import of his words. Slapped back Swan: "No, I don’t think he felt confused or...

A little after 8 a.m. on July 20, 2001, a couple arriving for an appointment opened an unlocked front door at an office in the Florida panhandle town of Fort Walton Beach and discovered a woman lying on the floor, dead. Her name was Lori Kaye Klausutis and she was just 28. The police said they found no signs of foul play. The medical examiner concluded her lonely death was an accident. She had fainted, the result of a heart condition, and hit her head on a desk, he said. Now, nearly 20 years later, Klausutis's death has captured...

MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski said Wednesday that “a call is being set up” with Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey after she questioned why President Trump is allowed to continue spreading “libel” and “misinformation” on the social media platform. “@twitter need to know why trump is not banned?” the “Morning Joe” co-host asked in a tweet. “I will be reaching out to head of twitter about their policies being violated every day by President Tump,” she wrote in another. “Hope my call is taken. Please retweet if you agree.” During her show earlier Wednesday, Mrs. Brzezinski slammed Mr. Trump’s latest tweets attacking...

Twitter founder Jack Dorsey will speak to MSNBC host Mike Brzezinski who is demanding Donald Trump is banned from the platform after accusing her husband and co-host Joe Scarborough of murder, she revealed Wednesday. She tweeted that she was going to have a call with Dorsey and Twitter's general counsel Sean Edgett after Trump on Wednesday once again demanded an investigation into the death of one of Scarborough's interns. 'Guys like low ratings psycho Joe Scarborough are allowed to walk the streets? Open cold case!' he tweeted in a comparison to his disgraced long term fixer Roger Stone. Scarborough's wife...

Mika Brzezinski asked former Secretary of State John Kerry why he isn't running for president against Donald Trump in 2020, during a Monday interview about the Ukraine phone call scandal and climate change activism. Kerry, the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, appeared on "Morning Joe" to discuss his new climate change group, "World War Zero," and other political issues, when he was hit with the question at the very end of the interview. "So Mr. Secretary, before you go — of course, we won’t put you in the awkward position of talking about the other Democratic candidates, but some might ask...

Obama’s handler Zbigniew Brzezinski, a big-time New World Order globalist insider, put the matter rather bluntly by asserting that it was now harder to control, but easier to kill, a million people. Specifically, he said that “new and old powers face” an unprecedented situation; the “lethality of their power is greater than ever”, but, sadly for the NWO globalists, their “capacity to impose control over the politically awakened masses of the world is at a historical low.” Humanity’s consciousness is rising. People are starting to get wise to the deception. The masses are resisting, not complying and fighting back, and...

Video at link. Chris Plante mentioned this on WMAL this morning. Also reported by Twitchy: https://twitchy.com/dougp-3137/2019/05/01/mika-brzezinski-shares-video-of-joe-scarborough-hanging-up-framed-photo-of-mueller-in-their-home-and-people-have-thoughts/

On Morning Joe, Tuesday, Mika Brzezinski says she'd "love to hear" from former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis or other former members of the Trump administration to hear about the "dysfunction" in the Trump administration and the "erosion of our credibility on the world stage." Brzezinski implored Mattis to contact her to trash the Trump administration and the standing of the United States in the world. The moment came after the BBC's Katty Kay said that foreign allies have become skeptical of US claims regarding Iran, and would need hard evidence before supporting any American move in the area. Said Brzezinski:...

South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg is the next version of Barack Obama and not in a good way. He is adored by the media for his charisma, left-wing politics, purported intelligence, and would be another "first" if he were elected. Perhaps nowhere is the Mayor Pete Fan Club better personified better than MSNBC Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski. After showing video of Buttigieg taking on a heckler at a rally who was ranting about Sodom and Gomorrah, Brzezinski found another way to compare Buttigieg to Obama. She hailed Buttigieg for handling the heckler, "in a way that made you...

Imagine if Israel's prime minister Bibi Netanyahu had been defeated in yesterday's elections. You have to think Morning Joe would have heralded the news at the very top of today's show. That's big news, when the "right side of history" prevails. Instead, they led with major-league baseball and Brexit chaos. When she eventually got around to reporting Bibi's win, a bitter Mika Brzezinski sounded like she was sucking on lemons. Mika emphasized the negative, and made unsubtle, sarcastic analogies to President Trump. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

In the wake of Lucy Flores' accusation of inappropriate touching by Joe Biden, Morning Joe has wrapped Biden in a warm embrace, metaphorically nuzzling his neck and planting a big warm kiss on the top of his head. On Monday's show, Joe Scarborough and former Hillary campaign aide Adrienne Elrod rose first to support good old Uncle Joe. Then came Mika Brzezinski with a more explicit defense of Biden's creepy behavior. Yes, Brzezinski acknowledged, Biden is "extremely affectionate and flirtatious." But it's in a "completely safe way." She suggested that Flores had misconstrued Biden's behavior, and ended by claiming that...

Friday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” co-host Mika Brzezinski weighed in on the feud between President Donald Trump and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) amid the ongoing partial government shutdown. According to Brzezinski, Trump has only feared his base and FBI special counsel. But now, she said the president fears Pelosi because she, like Mueller, is fearless and experienced. “Nothing Trump does will make her afraid or rattled. Also like Mueller, she knows more than she is saying publicly. She’s gotten inside Trump’s head.

When you apologize for using a term that you yourself call "vulgar, crass and offensive," wouldn't you include in your apology the person against whom you used it? Apparently not, if you're Mika Brzezinski, and the person you insulted is a prominent conservative. Returning to Morning Joe today after a day off for "a family matter," Mika Brzezinski apologized for having on Wednesday's show called Secretary of State Mike Pompeo a "butt boy." NewsBusters editor Scott Whitlock reported the slur here. But whereas Brzezinski apologized "especially to the LGBT community" and to her colleagues, she didn't apologize . . ....

MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski apologized Wednesday for a remark she made on air that drew criticism for its homophobic implications. During a segment on "Morning Joe," Brzezinski blasted Secretary of State Mike Pompeo for his response to the killing of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi. Pompeo had appeared on the Fox News morning show "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday to talk about a range of topics, including the terror attack in France and U.S. border security. In the sit-down interview, he evaded the hosts' questions about Khashoggi's murder and cast doubt on evidence that said Saudi Arabia Crown Prince Mohammed...

MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski is apologizing after she used a homophobic remark to describe Secretary of State Mike Pompeo Wednesday morning on "Morning Joe." Brzezinski was speaking about Pompeo's interview on cable news rival "Fox & Friends," where the secretary of State reiterated that while the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi was a "tragic incident" that America doesn't approve of, the Saudis are still "an important ally" of the United States. "I understand that Donald Trump doesn't care … But why doesn't Mike Pompeo care right now?" Brzezinski asked during an interview with Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.). "Are the...
