VIDEOWillie Geist just barely worked in a mention of the victims of the terrorist attack in Colorado while the Morning Joe crew was wailing with concern for the family of the terrorist who tried to burn people alive. The best way to describe Geist's mention of the victims was reluctantly obligatory as if he knew he had to put in a word for the victims while the real thrust was deep, deep concern over the fate of the terrorist's family who were due to be deported. It really pained Willie to take THREE seconds to mention the victims during a...

VIDEOThe press swarming around Senator John Fetterman because he (GASP!) actually spoke to Pete Hegseth reminded me of the scenes of the press in "The Right Stuff" sounding like "root weevils" as the Chuck Yeager character described them. Watch the shock of the media thinking it is something incredible that a Democrat senator would want to speak to one of President Trump's nominees. Funny how there was NO such press concern when the utterly incompetent Lloyd Austin of triple Covid mask infamy was also nominated to be Defense Secretary.

Representative Robert Garcia (D-CA) claimed Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that President-elect Donald Trump’s immigration policies were “out of step” with what “most Americans” want. Co-host Willie Geist said, “Let’s start at the end with birthright citizenship, President-elect Trump says he will get rid of it the day he gets into office. What’s your reaction?” Garcia said, “Look, I think all these new ideas that Trump is coming out with and his proclamations over the weekend, besides being unconstitutional are quite un-American and shameful. I’m an immigrant myself. I came in this country part of the time, I was not...

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said Wednesday on “Morning Joe” that Democrats lost the election because of identity and cultural politics. Co-host Willie Geist said, “I live in a relatively rural area outside the city. There was a local race there, and the Republican changed her signs picking up on this. And every sign said ‘Save Girls Sports.'” Scarborough said, “Let’s dig a little deeper because you have that stacked on top of what happened on college campuses this fall, stacked on top of what’s been happening on college campuses over the past four or five years. I have said this...

What's happened to Willie Geist? He used to be a relatively sane balance to the rabid liberal partisanship of Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. But in recent times, he has been going increasingly hard left. On today's Morning Joe, Willie called Kari Lake the "residue" of Trump, and called NC GOP guv candidate Mark Robinson "crazy."The "residue?" That's tantamount to calling Kari Lake a lingering stain. Serious question: Could Joe and Mika be getting ready to hang up the spurs, and does Willie want to establish his liberal street cred to take over the show?

VIDEOMorning Joe's little sidekick, Willie Geist, has switched fantasies from this version of Biden being the best version ever to suddenly declaring Kamala Harris to be an eloquent and brilliant debater. Really Willie? Perhaps in Morning Joe World but in the real world we already had a taste of Kamala's debating "skills." Was Kamala's encounter with Tulsi Gabbard during the 2020 election primary debates the best version of Kamala Harris ever?

[snip] Willie Geist, citing an unnamed source, described Johnson as "Jim Jordan with a jacket and a better haircut."Charlie Sykes one-upped Willie in the Johnson-trashing stakes, approvingly quoting Never Trumper and ex-GOP congressman Adam Kinzinger kin-zinging Johnson as "Jim Jordan in drag."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Representative Tim Ryan (D-OH), running for the open U.S. Senate seat in Ohio, said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that the “exhausted majority” needed to “kill and confront” the extremist Republican movement. Co-host Willie Geist said, “What is your message to Ohio Republicans in this general election who may look at J.D. Vance and say I don’t like the way he’s running the campaign, maybe I don’t like the guy, and they’re giving you a look?”

VIDEOThe Morning Joe show had trouble accepting the sweeping results of the Arizona primary elections to the extent that an embittered Willie Geist declared that "The Big Lie swept Arizona." Liberals who can't handle the truth love to rub their "Big Lie" comfort towel. Expect many more liberal incantations of "The Big Lie" from now until the end of 2024.

Former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton took at shot at progressive Democrats this month, appearing to blame them for the inability of the Democrat-controlled Congress to "get things done," and suggesting they could be the cause of potential party losses in the 2022 midterm elections. During an interview with MSNBC's Willie Geist that took place earlier this month and aired in part on Thursday, Clinton implored Democrats to start thinking about the party's ability to win elections overall and not just in deep-blue districts where they were assured victory. Geist turned the interview's attention to the topic, asking Clinton what she...

The White House repeated on Monday that President Joe Biden plans to run for reelection in 2024 as failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton continues rebuilding her political profile. “The president has every intention of running for reelection,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said during the daily briefing on Monday. On Sunday, Clinton warned that former President Donald Trump would run for president again in 2024 and that there would be dire consequences for the United States if he won. “I think that could be the end of our democracy,” she said in an interview with NBC’s Willie Geist. “Not...

MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle argued Americans have to put the high inflation rate and rising costs of food and other every day items "in perspective" on Sunday. The consumer price index rose 6.2% year over year in October, according to the Department of Labor, the largest annual gain since November 1990. And prices rose 0.9% month over month. But the soaring costs, Ruhle said on NBC, were expected after the worldwide pandemic, before telling anchor Willie Geist that Americans "on average" can actually afford the higher prices. "The dirty little secret here, Willie, while nobody likes to pay more, on average,...

A producer for the left wing ‘Daily Show’ has accused NBC’s Chuck Todd of being a secret agent for Republicans. This is laughable. Conservatives have been complaining about media bias from Chuck Todd for years, he is one of the worst left wing hacks on TV. FOX News reports: NBC’s Chuck Todd trends on Twitter after Daily Show producer claims he is a ‘Republican plant’ NBC anchor Chuck Todd trended on Twitter after a Daily Show producer accused him of being a “Republican plant” on Sunday night. On Sunday, Daily Show producer Matt Negrin posted a lengthy Twitter thread discussing...

“I think he’s got a pretty big credibility crisis on his hands. Because all of these problems, in some ways, showed up after he said something basically the exact opposite. Afghanistan withdrawal wasn’t going to be messy. This wasn’t going to look like Saigon. The booster shots, he came out and essentially said eight months, and even indicated maybe we should start it as soon as five months. Now we’re not sure if anybody under 65 is going to get a booster shot. ..Of course, the border has been, whether this is — we can talk about the border problems...

NBC anchor Chuck Todd said Tuesday on “MSNBC Live” that the United States’ chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan will damage President Joe Biden’s image of competency. Jackson asked, “Why were we so caught off guard here? Chuck, what do Afghans need to hear from the administration broadly this morning?” Todd said, “From the point of view of Afghans…how long is this process of evacuating Afghans going to last, how open will we be to bringing out more Afghans who want out? Where are we going to take them? How is the process worked? Are we cutting red tape? All of those...

Friday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci sounded off on Gen. Colin Powell dying of complications from a reported breakthrough case of COVID-19. Co-host Willie Geist asked Fauci what he would tell people who argue Powell’s death shows the coronavirus vaccine doesn’t work.

On Morning Joe, Willie Geist stopped short of stamping his feet. But he was clearly miffed that the Virginia governor's race is close—with one recent poll even showing Republican Glenn Youngkin with a lead over former Gov. Terry McAuliffe. Geist, pinch-hitting for Joe and Mika, who had the morning off on Friday, forcefully asked Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), Hillary's failed 2016 running mate, why the race is close despite Youngkin's "pretty wild" and "dangerous" views?Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

NBC political director Chuck Todd said Sunday that President Joe Biden appeared to be facing down “pretty big credibility crisis.” Todd spoke with fellow MSNBC host Willie Geist on “Sunday Today” to discuss the political news of the day, from the growing crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border to reports confirming that a U.S. drone strike had killed an Afghan aid worker and his family rather than the intended ISIS-K operators.

‘This is a game that probably the White House and maybe Major League Baseball wishes it hadn’t played at some point but here we are’ XCERPT: GEIST: "Well, to listen to the president speaking right there is impossible to square his argument. One week ago he was calling for the all star game to be moved out of Atlanta and then shortly there after it was. Now he’s expressing concern about the idea of moving the masters because of the impact it might have on working people in and around the masters. So in other words, there wasn’t a lot...

If you want to understand the depths of the liberal media's condescending disdain for Americans voting for President Trump, it would have been instructive, if emetic, to watch the opening segment of today's Morning Joe. It was one, long, condescension to Trump voters. [snip] The most condescending of all, surprisingly and disappointingly, was Willie Geist. After Meacham suggested that Trump supporters are like those who wanted "the America of Bull Connor," and lamented that he couldn't understand how people could support Trump, Geist sought to explain. He portrayed Trump voters as sheep who have "been led" to believe things that...
