On a recent episode of MSNBC's ^{Morning Joe,} hosts Eugene Robinson and Jonathan Lemire interviewed outgoing NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. Despite their attempts to elicit criticism of Donald Trump, Stoltenberg commended Trump for urging NATO allies to increase their defense spending. Stoltenberg emphasized the importance of NATO and bipartisan U.S. support for the alliance…

MSNBC’s Morning Joe is the kind of “news” program that laments that Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are supposedly portrayed as two equal candidates when, according to them, the latter is a lying liar who lies all the time and the former is just a normal candidate. However, for their Wednesday post-debate analysis, the assembled cast cheered Harris spreading fake news about pro-lifers…

Retired Gen. H.R. McMaster is out with a new book detailing his time as former President Donald Trump’s national security advisor, and while the book is not by any means an ode to Trump, it is also not the typical anti-Trump book that MSNBC’s Morning Joe has become accustomed to. On Tuesday’s show, the assembled cast admitted after their interview with McMaster that this “surprised"…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough invokes Christian liturgy to celebrate the Democrats' current good fortune: "Gene Robinson, before we get to the news of the day, behold, you bring tidings of good news to Democrats east, west, north, and South, for unto them is born the reason for exuberance."

Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance appears to have touched a nerve in the news media, because the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC are still obsessing over his 2021 comments about “childless cat ladies” with thinly-veiled rage.

Eugene Robinson agrees with Mike Barnicle that Trump is "deeply damaged," adding that he is "dangerous," "not a well man," and has "some deep insecurity and feeling of inadequacy."

Somebody might want to run an AI analysis of Eugene Robinson's current Washington Post column: "No, really, Republicans are getting weirder." It'd be interesting to see if it were written in the style of Kamala Harris speechwriters, or some other member of her campaign. He threw the W-word eight times in his column and six times on MSNBC today.

Morning Joe oozes with excitement over Kamala Harris as the Democrat presidential nominee. Eugene Robinson caps it by saying that the feeling among Dems is that Kamala can not just beat Trump, she can "slam" him. There was much excitement over Kamala's fundraising haul since Biden's exit. Scarborough literally poor-mouthed himself, saying that as "a poor country lawyer," he can't even…

On Morning Joe, Eugene Robinson, Washington Post columnist and also an MSNBC analyst, last year claimed that Biden is "sharp as a tack." Now he says that after Biden's disastrous debate, "Democrats are right to send up the alarm."

On Morning Joe, Washington Post columnist and MSNBC analyst Eugene Robinson says that if Biden can "remain upright" and "make sense" during this week's presidential debate, that will be a "massive victory."

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough displayed religious illiteracy by declaring an evangelical leader guilty of "depravity" and "straight-out blasphemy" for his support of Donald Trump. Willie Geist agreed it was "blasphemy."

MSNBC’s Joy Reid took a break from covering former President Donald Trump’s hush money case in New York on the Wednesday installment of The ReidOut’s to discuss his classified documents case and the news that Judge Aileen Cannon has postponed the trial indefinitely while she considers all the pre-trial motions and other issues related to the case. Reid responded by putting on her…

On Morning Joe, Eugene Robinson, MSNBC's chief political analyst, suggests that Republicans try to overcome their loss of the popular vote in presidential elections by "gerrymander[ing] the hell out of everything, to try to build an advantage." But 48 out of 50 states, representing 98.3% of the 538 Electoral College votes, award all their Electoral College votes to the winner of the popular…

Hell has frozen over, and some in the left-wing corporate media have finally begun to entertain the notion that our 81-year-old President might, in fact, have some cognitive issues. Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone of how desperate these same journalists were to dismiss that idea as a “right-wing” conspiracy theory cooked up by cynical Republicans and “Russian television,” until…
