Rev Al discussed this on his show this weekend too.

I like Brett McGurk. Hope he's a regular. 

[oakville]

Joe is mad that many voters will focus on the strong economy when they vote . This will help Trump.

Joe is mad that voters won't focus on the issues that he is worried about like the rule of law & Mueller.

[oakville]

Joe is worried that democrats will pick a socialist to run against Trump.

Joe said small business is happy with the economy.

Mika was very quiet today. She looks very tanned.

[oakville]

Mika listens to Joe. 🙂

She gazed at him several times today.

As long as they don't say DemocRat, unless they say Repugs.

I'm enjoying the image of Mika sitting in a movie theater with her hands over her eyes for three hours. 

Just kidding I'm sure she stayed home to read up on the Constitution and how the Democrats will apply it as to whether they should proceed with impeachment hearings. 

HAHAHA  Just kidding she sat at home staring in the mirror for three hours asking it "who's the fairest of them all".

Those of you who watch rather than listen like me have no idea just how often Mika says, under her breath, "Wow."  It comprises about 35% of everything other than going-to-commercial-announcements that she says.  And its not in the fashion of "You just won Ironman--Wow."

Another treat today watching them in studio . . . Joe was off on some rant that Meeks didn't approve of (I think they were back to that Derby business in the second hour) and I had forgotten how funny it is to watch her scribble all over/shuffle her papers around when she is not amused.  😡

At least she didn't call him "Honey" on the air like she did last week.

[oakville]

Joe & Barnicle discussed allowing inmates to vote. They can in Maine. Trump won the prison vote in Maine. Joe said he wanted to move to Maine. I don't get it.

Does Joe think he will be incarcerated?

Joe is planning on running for office again and he needs all the votes he can get.

That was quite a display by our staunch feminist.  At the head of the table surrounded by men discussing foreign policy, the daughter of the former national security adviser went an interminable number of minutes without saying a word other than a mumble and to introduce the bump. 

Of course, Joe wouldn't have allowed it.  He was trying to break Chris Matthews's record for number of times interrupting a guest.

It sounds to me that he is running for Mayor of the entire Eastern Seaboard.

I don't like Emily Jane Fox. I hope that, with Cohen headed to prison, her 15 minutes are up.

Today's show not only depressed me. but, given what we already know what will happen in the next election, scares me to death. The thought of another 4 years of trump hell makes me ill. Sometimes I swear Pompeo is a robot who is remotely controlled by trump or someone in his administration. He answers by rote, never adding anything new. Isn't anyone worried about the missile launches by Kim Jong Un? Putin's interference in Venezuela's civil war? The thought of going to war with Iran? All these issues were addressed in today's show, that's why I so fear the future. I kinda wish I hadn't watched today.

I suspect that Mika & Joe's new contract with MSNBC allows them to spend several segments promoting her book deals & Joe's band rather than on news issues  . I wonder if MSNBC will let Joe & his band perform live on set & have access to other shows.

Agreed.  Now that the Michael Cohen Farewell tour has wrapped up for three year,  all of them, go away!

Donnie comparing "yesterday at the Cohens" to sitting shiva was a bit ridiculous.   It was so damn one-percent.   People go to jail every day, many of them for longer than Michael Cohen and for less grievous crimes -- not to mention some who are even innocent.   Where are the tears for them?   Oh that's right, who cares about people who aren't on TV.

[Ohwell]

I watched just a bit this morning, just long enough to hear Mika pronounce Moscow as "Mosco."  She really is that dumb.

When you compare Mika with, say, Kelly O'Donnell or Nora O'Donnell, her interview/news skills really come up short. Nothing gets you "in the door" like a famous last name, or an affair with your boss. It's a shame for all those hard working young journalists who will never get the breaks like she has. KYV??? Just a big money maker for Mrs. Scarborough.

He repeated the same thing on Nicolle's show and I thought he said they actually did sit shiva.  My eyes are still trying to right themselves from where I rolled them.

Norah O'Donnell just got the CBS evening news host job.  Can you imagine the hilarity if someone at NBC suggested something similar for Mika?  Followed by a trip to the rubber room for the person who made such a suggestion.

I've always heard that "Mosco" is the correct pronunciation. Although my idol, Rachel Maddow, pronounces it "Moscow".

Wait. What?  Is she trying to show us just how worldly and intelligent she is?  (Not working.)   Is that how it's pronounced in Russia?  In any event, I'm sure she knows that it's pronounced Moscow in the U.S.

Joe was allowed to perform his 9/11 tribute song on the set. Mika played the tamborine.

Norah used to be a regular panelist on Morning Joe before joining CBS.

Yes, “Moscow” is generally an American-only pronunciation. People from the UK and other such countries say “Mosco”. I’m originally from the UK, and I used to say Mosco, but now I say Moscow.

It is" Mosco", rhymes with "low." I was taught to remember, "There is no cow in Moscow."

Here's an ironic question. WTF is with this show? It starts with disgraceful Tiger Woods moves to a disqualified horse and then let's Katy Kay blather on about a royal baby. 

Who cares?

They managed to squeeze in the also disgraceful behavior of William Barr in between Access Hollywood

Just yesterday, Morning Blowhard makes a big, belabored point about the carrier deployment to the Mideast being a routine exercise scheduled more than a month ago.   Nothing to see here, folks.

Minutes ago, Mika hypes the upcoming segment as "In a major show of force, the United States sends aircraft carrier and bomber task force to the Middle East as a response to Iran's provocations ..." 

Edited May 7, 2019 by millennium

[millennium]

ugh, the KYV infomercial.   So droll to hear Mika exhorting women to "Earn It."   Who the *** does she think she is, anyway?   Did someone appoint her spokesmodel for middle-aged homewreckers trying to make themselves respectable?

In Moscow it’s pronounced “Mosk-va” - if I am remembering my high school Russian correctly!

I want to know why this show bothers to have Republican lawmakers on to discuss *anything* anymore. At this point, the show drives home the point that they are complicit again and again every day. Who cares what they have to say about trade or whatever?

The show is whatever Joe decides to be important. He used to torture viewers with a mandatory UK Soccer segment. Luckily this ended after Mika & Joe got married. It was rumored to be part of the prenup agreement. Mika used to get very upset during these segments & would clean out her purse on air.

[oakville]

Joe said he couldn't remember the names of his kid while coaching baseball. He kept mixing up Joey & Jack.

Joe said the Democrat should impeach Barr.

[oakville]

Joe said it was a wise move to send an aircraft carrier to the Persian gulf. The Iranians & USA are declaring each other to have terrorists

[oakville]

Mika showed clips from MC ing her Powerful woman how. Norah O donnell was there.

I get nervous when Mika urges young women to "earn it". it sounds sleazy given what she did with Joe.

[oakville]

Katty Kay & Eugene Robinson were shocked at the Starbucks coffee cup left on a table during Game of Throne.

[oakville]

Joe wants Mueller to testify. He needs to explain his report.

Having to sleep with Joe Scarborough is a high price to pay for whatever it is her job is.

[oakville]

Joe said Democrats have to remember that is was the non Trump GOP that gave control of the Houe to Democrats.

Joe attacked the blue checkmarks for being anti GOP purists.

Joe said the non Trump GOP are heroes because they are helping the Democrats.

Joe forgot to call himself a hero:)

[oakville]

Mika was excited about the Holbrooke book. They showed pictures of Mika' parents in China. Holbrooke did not like Dr Z. Dr Z won the arguments and sent Holbrooke back of the motorcade.

"yesterday at the Cohens" 

Is this in the NBC new Fall lineup?

Joe was happy for Tiger Woods receiving the Freedom medal. Joe went on to discuss how good it was that Tiger was a devoted father and the entire family got along. Joe said the key to a successful divorce is a non disclosure agreement.

[Kemper]

Oakville...please tell me he did not actually say that.  I flipped the channel during the interview with Stedman-something, Oprah's significant other.  He and Meeka would be a match made in heaven.

I made up the part about the NDA. He did make comments about how he is a devoted dad & the family is working well together. How would Joe know about Tiger' parenting?

I think Tiger & Joe both live in Jupiter Florida but it is weird that Joe would have the knowledge of Tiger & hi ex wife's relationship

[oakville]

Joe is happy that Biden ha a commanding lead in the polls. Willie said there re o many people on the debate stage that no one could attack him successfully.

Joe mocked the blue checkmark voters that are not supporting Biden.

The panel is happy that Bernie is losing support. He went from 40 % to 20%
