Excellent idea kemper, my first thought is Send in the Clowns . . . . isn't it rich? . . . aren't we a pair? . . . me here at last on the ground, you in the bunker . . .

Blerrggg.  I hate when they talk about Reagan.

Me too.  The middle class has never recovered since he took a wiz on us.  I enjoyed the segment with Robert Kuttner and thought it brought up a lot of good points about how we got here even though we had 16 total years of democratic presidents.

I’m binge watching The Office in Mika’s honor. 

Dwight, you ignorant slut!

[suomi]

Mika: it would be better if you would state your opinion and follow it with a full stop. Don't say "Correct me if I'm wrong here" or "Am I correct?" or "Is it just me?" or "This is how I see it." Just: opinion, full stop. They're paying you big bucks to offer firm and informed opinions, not guesses. (You could even InstaTwitter this tip from the chicken coop.)

That's how I feel about "If I'm not mistaken...".  Well, what if you are, dumbass?

[WhineandCheez]

One minute ago I heard Mika say in the brightest voice I've heard in awhile, "Coming up SD's attorney Michael Aven(HOTTIE)atti is standing by!!!" Then they show him standing on the set, Ready Player One, bathed in the soft light of glory.....

[suomi]

Twenty five minutes into the third hour now (some was repeated?), Avenatti will be on set live, after the break.

Jinx, WhineandCheez, LOL.

With Joe AWOL today we have Ari Melber for the block between Michael and Mika.

Buy me a Coke, suomi!!

I was lying in my bathtub this Am idly wondering if Avenhottie has a professional bodyguard.  He should...

[Eliot]

AVENHOTTIE! Wooooo!

Oh, jeez. Scoop Brzezinski is now in full prosecutor mode. She is so transparent.

I love Ari.

[XOQueens]

Scoop Brzezinski (thanks whoever came up with that gem) is back on her "journalist" grind. 

Omg. Avenatti's grin throughout this whole examination. Swoon.

Scoop is making Fierce Face. What's her name, that model, the one who smizes, would be proud. Tyra Banks! Go, Fierce Mika. She is also doing dismissive body language, in general and with Ari. Grrrrl Value.

[navelgazer]

I think the Mika/Avenhottie* thing is mutual.  Mika was asking him question after question and when Ari took over Avenhottie grinned at her and said "that was a great examination" and you could just see her preen. 

*Great nickname!

Fierce Face is such a perfect description of that. She's mad with Ari being the buffer. She'd lean right over to Avenhottie if she could.

He keeps grinning at her with sparkly eyes. Lol. Willie and Barnicle don't get that twinkle. He also keeps glancing up and down at her, but that could be due the super loud scarf she's wearing today. Her scarf is so loud this morning.

There was a lengthy question that I didn't quite follow which caused Ari to make "Hmmm?" eyebrows at Michael in, I guess, appreciation of the question and anticipation of the answer. Michael began his response to Scoop with "You mean, abortion?" So I'm gonna need to watch that part again.

Yeah, she was asking about whether it appeared if any payments to other women were for “any sort of procedure,” but the question was so garbled AvenHottie had to reframe.

I just love how much this guy loves his job. I watched him on Heileman’s The Circus on Sunday night and he is just having a blast.

? W-H-A-T? Her daughters are grown adults, why is she even concerned with what they watch.  

I bet her girls are questioning whether it’s ok for her to sleep with her boss. Maybe that can be the next family discssion on MJ. 

Émilie ordered Dominos Pizza at age 14 & was scolded by Mika on air. No way they would watch tv without her permission:)

[teddysmom]

I think Avenatti likes fucking with Mika, he knows how to push her buttons, she thinks he's flirting when he knows Joe is watching from home so it's also more of his professional trolling of idiots.

Mika, you couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the directions were on the heel.  No matter how smart you "think" you are, I'm pretty sure you're not going to get your secret boyfriend to divulge something, no matter how much you bat your false eyelashes or shake the girls.  He's representing a woman who works in adult films.  You're afraid of The Office.  Nuff said? 

[XOQueens]

Hm. Mika tweeted and deleted a defense of herself texting during the Avenhottie segment. She does this a lot (texting during the show and a tweet-delete). She needs to think before she ... does anything. 

[teddysmom]

Also, I about spit coffee when she was going off about people don't care about  "some sordid dirty affair". 

Which one are you talking about Meeks? 

[Ladyrain]

Where the hell was Joe today?  Did anybody say?  He couldn't even drag himself to the damn bunker, where he probably throws a shirt and jacket over his pajama top anyway.  How hard is it to sit at a table in your pj bottoms and spout shit. 

Here's my theory as to why Meeks and Squinty aren't included in that MSNBC promo:  They're both absent from the show so much that TPTB forgot they even work there.

I didn't see the show today.  For those like me that missed it here is the AvenHottie clip:

https://www.mediaite.com/tv/michael-avenatti-im-working-with-two-more-women-who-say-they-were-silenced-over-trump-affairs/

Two quick thoughts:

Avenatti really knows how to work a room.

I don't think Ari Melber and Meeks have a mutual admiration society going on.  Wow, that last 30 seconds was uncomfortable.

The funny thing is that Mika also sends her tweets to Facebook, but when she deletes them on twitter, she forgets (or doesn't realize) that they are still on Facebook.

Mika got @-ed from Avenhottie. She will probably need to take tomorrow off to recover from her excitement.

Ummmmmm Texting alex my producer .. and our director is FANTASTIC https://t.co/xlzER3cLCM

She got trolled by some conservative radio host, he grabbed her tweet before she could delete it. 

Why does she care so much what people say about her?  If she knows her value so much, why be bothered by randos on the internet?

Yikes, that guy is a huge fan of Mika's, not.  Do you think she does all that tweet/delete stuff to generate buzz somehow?  She strikes me as being starved for attention and if no one will tweet about her she'll do it herself.  And as for the radio host guy, even negative attention is good attention?

[XOQueens]

Dude. Someone, anyone. Take Mika’s Instagram access away. She’s unhinged about this graduation. 

[Chloesmom]

Uh oh, Avenatti's coming to MSNBC and is gonna take Joe's woman:

He tweeted that he's not interested.   Why would he want that albatross Scaramucci around his neck? 

I have a feeling this is Scaramucci calling the cable networks pitching it, then putting out a press release about it. 

Avenatti would eat him alive.  He couldn't even go up against Jordan Klepper,  pretending to be an ultra conservative nut job, without looking like an idiot.

I have conspiracy theories. Lol. I used to think she was overcompensating. And then I remembered the time she said her daughter didn’t want the Mika/Joe wedding overshadowing her college graduation and she couldn’t plan or talk about the wedding until after she graduated, so now this feels even more weird and has passive aggressive tints. ?

Yep.  Like when she blew that noisemaker directly into the side of Joe's face on camera for his birthday knowing he'd have to sit there and take it.  I think she's a handful and a half off camera.

Oh gosh, yes! When she InstaTwitted from her house with the dogs and the pig and Alex Witt? Mika had Serious Bedhead - but the wine was all set out for them on the deck, first things first - and she was skittering through the feeding routine and a Know Your Value nugget and at one point Alex looked right into the camera and made a "WTF am I doing here?" face.

[Chloesmom]

Nicolle Wallace???  Yay, I'll be watching today!

[oakville]

I am a day late with yesterday's recap. It was take the dog to the vet day + get your stressed out 18 year old daughter ready for the Prom Day + 3 Pre Prom Parties for the parents. We know how to party in Oakville:)

Mika was wearing a blue top with the blotchy pink scarf. Joe was off. Mika was on her high horse. Heidi got stuck in the library.

Mika hates Giuliani & said he is past his prime. He may have done a few good things as Mayor, but he is unhinged in defending Trump. Mika said he was a runaway beer truck.

Mika said Porn Star 30 times. She said no one cares about Trump's cheap disgusting affair with a porn star. C'mon Mika , you shouldn't throw stones when living in a glass house.

Haas said that North Korea won't agree to the deal that Gaddafi had. He gave up hiss nuclear weapons & the USA ended up bombing the country. He died in a drain pipe.

The highlight for me is Mika's new Glamor shot of her pointing her fingers at the camera. Mika likes to point fingers at everyone.

I missed all the Avehottie segment.

Drink!

Glad you are ok and that the festivities in Oakville are progressing nicely albeit a bit hectic.

I posted a link to the Avenatti segment via Mediaite if you are so inclined.

[oakville]

Friday Recap. Cackles Wallace & Willie are co hosting. Mika & Joe are off. Donnie Deutsch is the Royal Correspondent. They showed Windsor Castle. Rudy thought it was on the East Side.

Cackles said she  received oppo research on Obama,Kerry & Gore. She never took info from Russians or any foreign governments.

Donny congratulated Cackles for beating Jake Tapper in the ratings. Is this true?

Cackles was happy that her show lasted 1 year. She started the show when Comey was fired.

Cackles concluded that Trump tried to collude with Russia but he failed. He should still be held responsible.

Donny hates Giuliani for exploiting 9/11.

John Meacham, Vander Hei & Susan Ferrucio are on the set.

Ferrrucio said that Trump started with 2% in the polls & rose by attacking all his opponents.

Ferrucio said he is doing the same thing with Mueller.

This looks like a good show today.Mika & Joe should be off more often.

Trump wants to know who in the FBI started the Russia probe.

I don't know if she's beating Tapper but I know her ratings are blowing previous shows in that timeslot out of the water and MSNBC is very pleased with her and her show.

[oakville]

Vanderhei said it's now Trump's GOP. The establishment GOP won't stand up to him. The rank & file GOP do not support the media.

Vander Hei said the GOP base likes Trump. No profiles in courage. Only Mccain is stand up to him. No one is trashing Trump in public.

The GOP base will not support Mueller.

Someone just starting shooting at  the Trump Doral Golf course in Florida. He was shooting in the lobby. Willie said he was neutralized

Guiliani is on CNN with Cuomo. He called someone an ass.

They make perfect sense -- they're not made for walking, or walking very far I should say.  They're "throw me on the bed and fvck me" pumps.
