Ending his stumbling defense of Abrego Garcia, Joe Scarborough emphatically claims that he was NOT a gang member. But as the BBC has reported, Abrego Garcia's own lawyers admit that the court order withholding him from deportation was granted "based on his 'well-founded' fear of persecution by Barrio-18, the main rival gang of MS-13." Ask yourself—better yet, ask Joe Scarborough—why would…

In his Tuesday monologue for his eponymous show, Fox News Channel host Greg Gutfeld took a blowtorch to MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough as a “bozo” and “grifter” with “dime slot hillbilly eyes” and “more full of [EXPLETIVE] than a cage full of chimps mainlining Metamucil” for recently claiming Joe Biden’s June 2024 debate performance was “shockingly bad” despite having…

If you tuned into CNN and/or MSNBC on Thursday morning, the message was clear based on their coverage of supposed “anger” at congressional Republicans over the Trump agenda and Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and hits from the left at Democratic town halls: Blue wave incoming! Nevermind these protests at GOP town halls — including one Wednesday night they were warm and…

Snobby Joe Scarborough repeatedly condescends to bloggers, saying that he will talk slowly so they'll be able to understand. His condescension comes in the context of saying that federal judges do have the authority to enjoin actions by the federal branch, and in particular, that Judge Boasberg had the authority to order the Trump administration to cease deporting members of violent gangs…
