Like someone is going to steal her tricks. Hey your parents can't use money & influence to get you into college, that's MY jam!!!

LOL!. I wonder if Mika used these tactics to get any of her daughters into John Hopkins.

I could see Joe offering to perform with his band at college events in exchange for allowing his kids to get into the school:)

With Joe's influence I'd imagine and wonder if her husband would have known. 

Hey honey, you know Carly, the daughter that got a D in Biology? She got into Johns Hopkins

First they open with that hilarious/cringeworthy clip of John Kerry chewing up and spitting out Rep. Massie (along with Kerry's hilarious follow up tweet) and then they announce Assange has been arrested in London.

Looks like I'm in for the long haul today folks!

Joe wants Rep Crenshaw to walk across the aisle to talk to Rep Omar about the terrorist attacks on 9/11.

Joe made fun of Democrat candidates who were afraid to own guns. He started speaking in an Irish accent. They can't apeal to midwestern voters without being realistic on gun ownership

Mika & Joe made fun of Blue Checkmark twitter journalists. Aren't they both "Blue Checkmarked"?

Joe can't figure out why Elizabeth Warren isn't more popular in NH. Joe said she was a much better candidate than Hillary Clinton.

Joe was shocked that Kamala Harris was in 3rd place in California.

Macaskakill complained about people spending $75M in negative ads against her.

Joe mocked Vanity Fair for promoting Beto O Rourke.

I think less of Claire McCaskill every time I see her on this show, but when they were discussing Joe's upcoming gig and the possibility of McCaskill's daughter going to the show Claire responded with something about she wasn't going because she was afraid she'd have to sit with Mika. Mika didn't seem to get it and went on about how OF COURSE she would sit with her blah blah blah. Quality TV at its finest!

Yes but they are not journalists so they can belong to the "do as I say, not as I do" club.

Joe wants Democrats to go on Fox News. Joe said people come up to him at the airport & told him that they were Trump fans but they liked Joe.

Joe is very popular at airports:)

I am pretty sure Joe has good, quality healthcare.  Someone needs to tell him there are pharmaceuticals that can help him distinguish between real people and the voices in his head.  Seriously they make fun of Trump for this all the time . . . sigh.

I've never heard of blue checkmarks (don't Twitter), so I googled this.  Pretty much I found that it is an insult almost exclusively hurled by RWNJs, particularly against journalists.  Is Mika really sure she wants to be associated with the blue checkmark haters?

Independent Counsel of FUNK? Seriously?  Tell me that's ironic. Because Joe is about as far away from funk as you can get.

Claire, if you are puzzled as to why some Democrats are leery of prosecutors, you should probably read the Washington Post from a couple of days ago. 21 more studies showing racial disparities in the criminal justice system. (And that's on top of the 120 he cited earlier.)

Or, you could engage in conversation with communities of color, like, I don't know, Ferguson Missouri.

It refers to the elite status that Twitter confers on account holder that have a minimum number of twitter followers that exceeds 20K or a similar number. Mika & Joe are both part of the Twitter elite.

It’s just a verified account. You fill out a form, put in some websites as references that you’re somehow in the public eye, and that’s that. I’ve seen local news folk with verified accounts (blue checkmates) and they have less than 1k followers. 🤷‍♀️ 

Unsurprisingly, Joe and Mika simultaneously put way too much importance on it (when they got their accounts verified) and derided it (when it fit their latest bitchfest).

I continue to be amazed at how often he (still) shuts her down, interrupts her and waves her off.  Maybe that is why she mutters and puts in her "wows" and "really" so often; it is the only way she has a voice.  Not that I really mind; she allows this sort of behavior so it is all on her.  But her continued disdain for anything related to pop culture, movies, etc. is tiring.

Today she scolded that "they" (by this, I am assuming she meant the guys...Heileman, Joe and Willie) were taking up time of the next guest.  I was actually enjoying the Game of Thrones discussion; and I have never watched it.  Willie binged it before his interview with Kitt Somethng.  He, you know, did his homework.

Mika & Joe are still in NY. Joe was rehearsing with his band and had to stay. Mika attended the rehearsal based on the photos they posted. Mika might be a backup singer.

Joe is mad at Barr for saying that the Trump campaign was spied on. His reputation will be sullied. Joe will no longer support him.

Joe said the FISA court judges were Republican. They agreed to do surveillance on the campaign.

Joe called him Roy Cohn.

Joe said that Cohn told Senator McCarthy to make false charges.

I am surprised that they mentioned the charges against Mika's crush Michael Avenatti. He was being too friendly with Mika. Joe was not pleased.

Joe trashed Chicago state attorney for letting Jussie Smollet off the hook.

Mika & Joe are very upset that someone in a powerful position let him off the hook.

I think so. Mika used to like running with her first husband. Mika organized a run around Capitol Hill in 2010. They tried to get Chris Christie to run with them but he couldn't. Joe jogged with Mika for a bit.

Joe told Tony Blair that Europe needs a middle ground on immigration. Joe complained about Germany allowing open borders.

Joe said his friends in Manchester were pro brexit but hated Maggie Thatcher.

tony blair was a good guest. Brexit is very hard to implement. The economic structures is over 40 years old.

Everyone keeps voting down Theresa May's proposals but she won't leave.

Blair wants a second referendum to ratify the terms of the Brexit agreement.

Joe bragged about his knowledge of UK Soccer to Tony Blair.

Monday Recap.

Mika & Joe are in Florida. I think they live near Tiger Woods. Joe said his phone was ringing off the hook with Republicans & Democrats telling him about Tiger's win at the Master's. Mika & her mom kept switching channels between Mayor Pete's campaign launch & Tiger.

Is Mika's mom a golf fan?

Barnicle,Donnie Deutsh, Eddie Glaude, & Blonde Lady from DCCC are the panelists.

Joe was excited about Tiger's redemption.

Donnie said that Mayor Pete & Tiger Woods are the Faces of a new America. Tiger changed the "Face of Golf" & Mayor Pete is changing the "Face of Politics".

Donnie said everyone can can root for them. Donnie said Tiger is no longer philandering.

Donnie said mayor Pete is Nice with Strength.

Mika reminded the panel that there are other nice Democratic Candidates.

Mika & Joe are falling into the same trap as 2015. They are going overboard with praise for 1 candidate.

Joe said that Hispanics & African Americans are an important of the Democratic electorates. he isn't sure how he will do in getting support from those communities.

Lemire said he reminded him of Obama with his audacity.

Joe said that Trump made himself available to media & it helped his campaign. Joe said that other candidates did not appear on Morning Joe and suffered the consequences.

Joe said you can't be President of the USA by only doing safe interviews.

I watched in awe yesterday as they couldn't scramble to Twitter fast enough to give their glowing reviews of Mayor Pete seeing as though 99% of what they usually talk about is themselves so I'm not surprised by today's show.  I am a Mayor Pete fan myself but this is flagrant.  I get the President was the "shiny" in 2016, I really hope the media learned something from it.

Did they even mention Rep. Eric Swawell also announced his candidacy?  At least they let Sen. Klobachar speak (of course Meeks had to tie in her eating disorder to make that happen).

Joe is upset at Barack Obama for commuting Chelsea Manning's prison sentence.

I was too.  There have been just two highly publicized examples of transgender Americans in recent years: Caitlyn Jenner, the obnoxious famewhore, and Chelsea Manning, the traitor.   I suspect if Manning wasn't transgender, she wouldn't have been pardoned.

None of it helps to improve the public's perception of transgender people.

In passing.  I like Swalwell, but I'm afraid he's getting off to a "low energy" start.

Did I just hear Meeks say something about people asking her to speak to her eating disorder (and something about sugar) all the time?  Are these the same people that won't leave Joe alone either?  It's really becoming crystal clear how these two got together.  Now that about half the show is dedicated to mentioning them and their "projects", they should rename the show "Meet the Hucksters".

Mika & Joe need a call centre to answer all the calls they get daily to let them know about Mayor Pete & Tiger Woods.

I wonder if Joe will volunteer to perform with his band at Mayor Pete's campaign events. ?

Call center, genius I tell ya . . . good one Oakville.  Thanks for my first morning laugh!

And please no, keep keep those two away from Mayor Pete.  I've seen/heard him play, he clearly doesn't need Joe "Adult Garage Band Musician" Scarborough's help!
