VIDEO"HOW DARE YOU QUESTION THE INTEGRITY OF THE FBI!!!"That was the reaction of much of the media during the years of the Trump-Russian collusion hoax if anybody expressed skepticism about the methods of the FBI. After the Mueller report revealed NO Trump-Russia collusion, most of the media ditched that line of absurd defense for the FBI... until now. On the heels of the release of the Durham report that even CNN's Jake Tapper declared to be "devastating to the FBI," it would seem that line of defense for the FBI would be gone for good. However, on Morning Joe, Scarborough...

Joe Biden's predicament has become so dire that Morning Joe can no longer sweep it under the rug. Monday's show thus devoted a long segment to discussing the unavoidable truth: that Democrats are "panicked" and "scared to death" about Biden. They're confronting a double whammy: Biden's lowest approval rating since becoming president, and even more alarming, a new poll showing him losing to Donald Trump in a head-to-head match-up by six points.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

VIDEOWARNING! If you vote a certain way in 2024, it could result in MSNBC's Mike Barnicle reaching for his pill bottle and swallowing it whole. If you think this is an exaggeration, you won't after watching this clip of Barnicle moaning how deeply deeply DEPRESSED he is over a certain Orange Man who ruined his life. Yes, it appears that poor Mike is suffering from terminal TDS to the extent that the Mean Tweeter has such complete control over him that it has removed any trace of happiness from his life resulting in sending Barnicle into a deep, deep depression.

Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake bumped into MSNBC personalities and hosts of “Morning Joe” Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough Wednesday at the Palm Beach International Airport, and although the conversation started out friendly enough, it quickly turned frosty. Lake said she introduced herself because the pair, who host the left-wing Trump-hating gabfest, “spend an awful lot of time badmouthing” her on the show. She explained to former Trump adviser Steve Bannon on his “War Room” podcast that Joe was initially receptive, but Mika was anything but: “I happened to be at the airport and … I was leaving and...

Call this a case of "be careful what you wish for—you might get it." For years, the liberal media has been salivating at the prospect of Donald Trump being criminally charged. NewsBusters has chronicled the many times the MSM has imagined the "walls closing in" on the former president. But now that it seems possible that Trump might actually be charged in Manhattan this week in connection with the alleged hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels, it looks like Morning Joe can't rejoice over it. They're still worrying about how Trump might escape it. After a segment today began with Kevin...

They haven't—at least so far—accused Donald Trump of "holding a gun to the head" of the GOP. But it's early days yet in the 2024 Republican primary. MSNBC's Morning Joe certainly headed in that direction today, with Jonathan Lemire claiming that Trump is attempting to "blackmail" the GOP into nominating him.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Talk about damning with faint praise . . .In a discussion today of Biden's prospective '24 run, the only real reason the Morning Joe panel could come up with as to why Kamala Harris will remain on the ticket was her gender and the color of her skin.Jonathan Lemire was explicit about that: "The Vice President is going to be on the ticket for many reasons, including, of course, that as noted, the base -- the foundation of the Democratic party right now: black women. They're not going to alienate that by pushing Kamala—Vice President Harris—off as Joe Biden's running...

MSNBC blowhard Donny Deutsch insisted the Democrats’ laundry list of inflation-exacerbating spending initiatives throughout President Joe Biden’s time in office was just the epitome of competence. Insufferable MSNBC Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough belched that the the people running the Michigan and Arizona GOP are supposedly “even bigger insurrectionists, bigger weirdos, bigger freaks” than the 2022 electoral cycle. The smug Deutsch, who once claimed that one in three Americans were racists, regurgitated Scarborough's anti-GOP drivel and praised the Democrats’ “blocking and tackling” starting “with our president.” Deutsch started throwing out economically disastrous leftist pipe dreams like “the climate bill,” Biden’s...

Morning Joe was all aboard the Sycophant Express today, turning the gush meter to 11 as it unleashed a string of superlatives to praise Biden's visit to Ukraine. "Incredible, staggering, historic...absolutely stunning...extraordinary...incredibly moving."Joe Scarborough twice put Biden's bravery in the same category as that of Lincoln visiting Union troops during the Civil War.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

This was gaslighting at its liberal-media worst. Trashing the Twitter hearing held yesterday by the GOP-led House Oversight committee, Morning Joe would have you believe that far from seeking to suppress Republicans and help Democrats, Twitter—98.47% of whose donations went to Democrats in 2020— actually bent over backward to help Donald Trump!The most egregious example of Twitter's pro-Dem bias was its suppression, in the days leading up to the 2020 election, of the New York Post's reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop. But the panel literally laughed that off. That's an odd take, coming after the New York Times and the...

Encouraging Joe Biden—DC's biggest gasbag—to "storytell" during his State of the Union speech? Worst. Advice. Ever! And yet, previewing the speech on today's Morning Joe, Jen Psaki, the former Biden spox who is now an MSNBC commentator, actually offered this advice: "Joe Biden is an amazing storyteller. I mean, you sit in that Oval Office, Karine can tell you, and he can storytell for six hours. He needs to do that in the speech tonight. . . He needs to tell the story."

Morning Joe's parade of woke virtue-signaling marches on! Earlier this week, we caught Joe Scarborough apologizing for his white privilege. Speaking of the death of Tyre Nichols, Scarborough said that the police wouldn't have attacked him in similar circumstances because they'd know that "that hell would rain down from above." Scarborough conveniently ignored the fact that hell did rain down on the cops involved in the Nichols beating—all were promptly fired and charged with murder! Today, Morning Joe's virtue-signaling spotlight turned to the ouster, by a vote of Republicans, of far-left Representative Ilhan Omar from her seat on the House...

Is Don gonna make Ron an offer he can't refuse? Or maybe just cut to the chase and have him whacked? That's what Joe Scarborough seemed to suggest on today's Morning Joe. Reacting to Trump having said that if Ron DeSantis runs against him, "we'll handle that the way I handle things," Scarborough said:"Sounds like a mob threat."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

MSNBC anchor Joe Scarborough said Monday on his show “Morning Joe” that President Joe Biden and his administration were “bumbling and stumbling” through his mishandling of classified documents found at his home and office. Scarborough said, “What’s going on here? The stumbling and bumbling around over the past month or so has been pretty extraordinary since November when they first started discovering these documents. They’ll have a press conference and say, ‘Well, we think that’s it. We don’t think there are any more.’ They don’t know. They haven’t known. What’s happened here? I guess, again, transparency, I think, works best...

MSNBC should change the show's name. Out with "Morning Joe." In with "Scarborough, Brzezinski, Lemire & Geist." If that sounds like the name of a law firm, it is. Morning Joe quite literally turned itself into one today in its passionate quest to distinguish Joe Biden's possession of classified documents after leaving the vice-presidency from that of Donald Trump after he left the presidency. The revelation of Biden having been in possession of classified documents obviously comes as an embarrassment to the liberal media that . So Morning Joe set out today to make the case that Biden's infraction is...

Let's stipulate: George Santos running for Congress on a carpet of lies is beneath contempt. As Tulsi Gabbard, subbing for Tucker Carlson, said to him: "do you have no shame?" But that doesn't mean that the Democrats, with a big helping hand from the liberal media, won't try to exploit the situation for their political gain.And so it was that Morning Joe was only too glad to play its part today. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

MSNBC's Morning Joe delighted on Tuesday in the case of Republican Congressman-elect George Santos, who's now admitted telling a series of fraudulent tales about his biography to get elected in the Third District on Long Island. If multiple lies about one's background are cause for a politician to resign, when will Democrats and the liberal media be demanding that Joe Biden quit, and how soon should we expect Ol' Joe to announce his departure from the White House? Let's take a walk down the long Memory Lane of some of Biden's lies, shall we? Among other prevarications, Biden: Made multiple...

Joe Scarborough's split political personality was on glaring display on today's Morning Joe. On the one hand, there was Scarborough's seething hatred of Donald Trump. The clip begins with Scarborough shouting: "he's guilty! He's guilty!" Scarborough also offered a relatively objective take that Ron DeSantis' brand of politics could be the winning formula for Republicans in 2024. But heaven forbid that Scarborough should say too many positive things about a potential 2024 Republican presidential contender. And thus Joe was obliged to balance his praise for the DeSantis brand by taking some serious shots at the Florida governor. Scarborough alleged that...

Care to hear the sound of nervous, forced, phony, laughter? Check out Joe Scarborough at the beginning of the video clip, which we've looped three times for your listening pleasure. That was Scarborough, on today's Morning Joe, feigning laughter at Mike Barnicle's mention that Kevin McCarthy and the new Republican majority intend to subpoena 51 members of the intelligence community who signed a letter that falsely called the New York Post's Hunter Biden exposé "Russian disinformation."

MSNBC co-host Joe Scarborough said Friday on his show “Morning Joe” that Republicans are being too “harsh,” which will cause them to lose elections. The panel was discussing Republicans criticizing the circumstances surrounding the release of WNBA star Brittney Griner from Russia, including Griner refusing to stand for the national anthem in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death in 2020. Scarborough said, “Americans get it; Americans are smart enough to get it. There are people that care protesting during George Floyd. There are a lot of Americans that didn’t really get black athletes and some white athletes kneeling during the...
