MSNBC's Joe Scarborough busted House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for trying to spin the Republican Party's loss of another seat in New York's special election.

The GOP majority shrunk after Democrat Tom Suozzi won back the seat formerly held by Republican George Santos, who was expelled following multiple ethics scandals and criminal indictments, and Johnson insisted that Democrats had underperformed and ran to the right on immigration – but the "Morning Joe" host was unpersuaded.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough slammed Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) for taking Russia's side in its war against Ukraine.

The Alabama Republican praised Russian president Vladimir Putin and blamed the United States for the invasion of Ukraine, saying that Donald Trump could negotiate an end to the conflict "in a matter of weeks," and the "Morning Joe" host was gobsmacked by the GOP senator's support for an American enemy.

Republicans lost the seat most recently held by disgraced former congressman George Santos, and MSNBC's Joe Scarborough laid the blame at Donald Trump's feet.

Democrat Tom Suozzi won back his old seat in a special election in New York’s 3rd District to replace the federally indicted Santos, who was expelled in December for a variety of ethics violations, and the "Morning Joe" host added that race to the GOP's years-long losing streak under Trump's leadership.

Donald Trump's lawyers have asked the U.S. Supreme Court to freeze the proceedings in his federal election subversion case, but MSNBC's Lisa Rubin explained why they're unlikely to grant that request.

The ex-president's lawyers asked the high court to temporarily halt the ruling that denied his immunity claims until the justices issue their own decision on the matter, but Rubin told "Morning Joe" she doesn't believe the case will be paused.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough bashed wealthy acquaintances who baselessly complained President Joe Biden is a "socialist" and pined for the return of "crazy lunatic" Donald Trump.

The U.S. economy has been surging ahead out of the pandemic since Biden took office, and the "Morning Joe" host heaped scorn on wealthy Americans who would put that growth at risk to re-elect Trump, who has promised to destabilize global order, abandon allies, and upend American democracy.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough mocked Donald Trump for burying renewed concerns about President Joe Biden by making outrageous and nonsensical remarks over the weekend.

The Biden team spent the weekend pushing back on concerns about the president's age and memory that were raised by special counsel Robert Hur's report, but the "Morning Joe" host ripped Trump for stomping all over that political gift by inviting Russia to invade NATO allies and rambling incoherently during campaign rallies.

Donald Trump is fond of telling self-aggrandizing stories where otherwise strong individuals throw themselves at his mercy, gratuitously calling him "sir," and MSNBC's Joe Scarborough said his latest version shows the former president is "losing it."

The ex-president told a rally crowd that he told a foreign leader that he would let Russia to "do whatever the hell they want," in violation of the NATO treaty, and the "Morning Joe" host said that was an obvious lie.

Many of Donald Trump's political allies have debased themselves for the former president, only to fall out of his good graces, but perhaps no one else has ever fallen so far as Mark Meadows.

The ex-president's final White House chief of staff joined the MAGA think tank Conservative Partnership Institute a week after Trump left office and enjoys a salary of just under $850,000, but New York Times reporter Robert Draper told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" that Meadows has been cast out of the Trump orbit as he faces Georgia racketeering charges and other legal perils.

The threat of political violence hangs over the U.S. Supreme Court case to determine Donald Trump's eligibility for the ballot, and a retired conservative judge warned that was precisely why the justices must disqualify the former president.

Trump has appealed the Colorado Supreme Court ruling that disqualifies him under the U.S. Constitution's insurrection clause, and MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski raised the possibility that his supporters would not peacefully accept a decision that kept him off the 2024 ballot – and retired federal judge Michael Luttig said that underscored the issue the justices must decide.

The U.S. Supreme Court will undoubtedly look for some way to determine the Colorado ballot case without deciding whether Donald Trump is eligible to hold office, but a retired conservative judge doesn't see an "off-ramp" for them.

The Colorado Supreme Court disqualified the former president from the ballot under the U.S. Constitution's insurrection clause, and former federal judge Michael Luttig told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" the high court has no way to avoid ruling on his eligibility.

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments to determine whether Donald Trump should be disqualified from the Colorado ballot, and a legal expert identified the strongest argument against the former president remaining eligible.

The Colorado Supreme Court ruled him ineligible in December under the U.S. Constitution's insurrection clause, but Trump has appealed to the high court as other states watch and wait for the final decision, and MSNBC legal analyst Barbara McQuade told "Morning Joe" that the law was fairly clear on this political issue.

MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski provided a grim summation of the latest developments in Donald Trump's legal cases.

An appeals court flatly rejected the former president's immunity claims, and legal analyst Andrew Weissmann cast doubt on the U.S. Supreme Court taking up Trump's appeal or issuing a stay that would push a trial in his 2020 election subversion case past November's election, and the "Morning Joe" co-host was stunned by the news.

A federal appeals court strongly rejected Donald Trump's claims of broad presidential immunity, and MSNBC's Chuck Rosenberg believes that ruling will stand.

A three-judge panel in the D.C. Circuit issued a 57-page unanimous decision that flatly rejected arguments against standing trial in the federal election subversion case, although Trump has vowed to appeal their ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court, but Rosenberg doesn't believe he'll find the necessary four justices willing to hear that case.
