The left-wing media truly has two faces, and those two faces belong to MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.
What kind of dirty charlatans are these, who spent the entire election cycle slandering Donald Trump as Hitler, as a fascist, as someone who had to be stopped at all costs because he is ‘killing women’ together with democracy.
So what did these haughty hypocrites do after the election? Of course, go to the ring at Mar-a-Lago to kiss the ring.
If MSNBC wants to retain an ounce of credibility, Joe and Mika — who reportedly didn’t notify their bosses before leaving — need to be fired.
But network administrators are unlikely to let them go – at least not immediately. After all, aside from fellow hysterical Rachel Maddow, these two are the only so-called “stars” they have.
Moreover, Mika has a completely rational explanation.
“Joe and I realized it’s time to do something different,” she told their rapidly dwindling audience on Monday, “and that starts with not just talking about Donald Trump, but talking to him.”
Right. Because who, after whining and crying about Hitler’s reincarnation over the past few months, wouldn’t ask for a tête-à-tête at Nazi headquarters?

Mika has never been so smart. Her incessant sighs and eye rolls are meant to imply that she’s far above the buffoonery on “Morning Joe,” but in reality those tics belie an intellectual lightweight afraid, or more likely incapable, of doing anything serious. say.
No wonder she loved Kamala Harris. Mika, who sells her ridiculous “Know Your Value” meetings, books, and online courses to unsuspecting women, is ironically acting like someone who is in over her head.
As for her equally odious husband, Joe Scarborough has always been a self-repressed, dead-eyed liar who seems to think his folksy accent can push any subterfuge or insult over the finish line.
“F*** you,” he told his audience in March, defending his biggest fanboy, Joe Biden, against rumors that the president not composed. Scarborough knew better, because, as he often told the great unwashed at home, he and Mika are – well, were – Best friends with the Bidens.
“We’ve known him for a long time,” Scarborough said in July. ‘Mika and her family’ – Mika the nepo baby, her late father served LBJ and Jimmy Carter – ‘[are] extremely close to the Bidens.”
That’s exactly why Joe and Mika had nothing to do with Biden’s presidency. But Scarborough loves to brag about his proximity to power – you know, the kind of thing that any real, self-respecting journalist finds disgusting and unethical.
After informing his disciples in March that he had just “spent a few hours with Joe Biden, sitting, talking and going around the world talking about issues,” Scarborough said Biden is “way more than convincing… He’s better than ever before. intellectual and analytical.’
That hasn’t aged well.

Joe has always been a self-righteous, dead-eyed liar, with that folksy accent that he seems to think can push any subterfuge or insult over the finish line. (Photo: the couple with Donald and Ivanka Trump in 2016).
Four months later, Scarborough stabbed Biden in the back and urged him on air to withdraw from the race.
Mika, meanwhile, took her vaudeville act to “The View,” where she camped out as an overwrought progressive who only wants an abortion!
“We are in a crisis,” Mika said.
The sighs were heavy, the tears flowed, the voice trembled. Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden, she preached, was extraordinary.
“No one is allowed to destroy America,” she said. ‘Nobody gets a pass to threaten his enemies with using the army against them.’
Almost forgot about that whopper!
Anyway, if you win the US presidential election, it turns out you get a huge pass from Joe and Mika. So they trotted off to Mar-a-Lago, with Mika telling their disappointed viewers that she and Joe needed to “restart communications,” as if this were a bilateral negotiation between warring but equal nations.
Ha! Not so fast. Here was Trump on Truth Social: “This morning, ‘Morning’ Joe and Mika, who owe their careers to me, went on their show and claimed to have met me. They made it sound like we had a summit. The truth is, Joe begged to meet me after our big win, and when I finally agreed, he approached me like a scolded dog. He’s lucky I didn’t have him thrown out of beautiful Mar-a-Lago.”
Joe and Mika owe Trump in more ways than one. During his 2016 run, Trump was a boon to Morning Joe’s ratings and relevance, appearing constantly on the show.
And years before that, Trump, among others, helped cover up the worst-kept secret in cable news: Joe and Mika, both married to others, had been having a long-term affair.
Mika even reportedly called the Death Star – aka the Fox News Building – in 2013 to personally lobby the network’s then-CEO Roger Ailes to kill a story about their relationship, which he did. did.
But when Trump won the nomination, Mika and Joe turned against him. Not very smart.
Trump’s tweet, dated August 22, 2016: ‘One day, when things calm down, I will tell the real story of @JoeNBC and his very insecure long-time girlfriend, @morningmika. Two clowns!’
Now there is an observation that has aged well.
Mika and Joe are just the culmination of the crisis facing the liberal corporate media, which has lied to their audiences about Donald Trump for so long and so brazenly.
It was Trump, among other things, who helped cover up the worst-kept secret in cable news: Joe and Mika, both married to others, had been having a long-term affair. (Image: Mika and Joe interviewing Trump in 2016).
Parent company Comcast is now reportedly planning to put MSBNC, along with other depreciating assets, up for sale.
A betrayed public is finally questioning shameless, transactional, empty mouthpieces like Joe and Mika – so-called truth tellers with no moral compass whatsoever, who are seemingly only interested in scoring that next interview, keeping their celebrity intact and getting invitations to the next state dinner.
An audience that now felt foolish, if not stupid, for believing and parroting everything these two and their compatriots ever said.
Of course, Scarborough doubled down, claiming on Tuesday: ‘Yesterday I saw for the first time what a huge gulf there was between social media and the real world, as we were inundated with phone calls all day long from people, literally all over the world. world, all very positive, very supportive, ‘I understand what you’ve done’ and so on.”
Joe: Your own assessments contradict you.
Data obtained by Mediaite shows that 38 percent of viewers in the crucial age group of 25 to 54 quit after the unveiling of their small Trump rally on Monday. “Morning Joe” then continued to draw eyeballs hour after hour.
Meanwhile, MSNBC is up in arms, with colleagues calling the meeting “disgusting,” “cowardice” and “frankly unsurprising.” [Mika and Joe] are just opportunistic.’
No joke. A marriage born of deceit gives way to a morning show based on lies. Who would have thought that?
Still a source close to ‘Morning Joe’ – Shmika perhaps? – defended the meeting, saying it was “worth it.”
Be better. Or maybe these two will even find themselves without a job.
