The revelation of text messages from lawmakers and Fox News hosts begging for Donald Trump to call off his rioting supporters puts new pressure on attorney general Merrick Garland.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) read the panicked messages from Jan. 6 before the House select committee voted 9-0 to recommend contempt charges against former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, and Washington Post reporter Jacqueline Alemany told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" the new evidence was "jaw-dropping."

Donald Trump has been called to give a deposition in the New York fraud investigation of his family-owned business, and a legal analyst said he's got few options to fight it.

Attorney general Letitia James is seeking a deposition from the twice-impeached one-term president on Jan. 7, 2022, which Trump intends to fight, but MSNBC contributor Charles Coleman doesn't see any way he'll win that battle.

An appeals court rejected Donald Trump's bid to keep his White House documents shielded from the House select committee, and MSNBC's Joe Scarborough said the ruling was especially "harsh" to the twice-impeached one-term president's efforts to undo his election loss.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit unanimously upheld a lower court's opinion that held President Joe Biden's decision to allow the documents' release, and the the "Morning Joe" host noted that the three-judge panel bluntly linked Trump to the Jan. 6 insurrection in their 68-page ruling.

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) ripped some of Donald Trump's strongest allies in Congress as "villains" with bad intentions.

The New York Democrat appeared Thursday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," where he dismissed House minority leader Kevin McCarthy's aspirations to become speaker of the House as a "fantasy," saying that voters would reject a situation that put Trump loyalists in charge.

Donald Trump came close to losing his battle with the coronavirus as his White House chief of staff "lied and lied and lied," according to a reporter who suspected the former president was deathly ill.

That former staffer, Mark Meadows, finally admitted to the truth about Trump's illness in his new book, which comes more than a year after the twice-impeached one-term president was hospitalized shortly after he publicly revealed his diagnosis, although he had actually tested positive days earlier.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough has finally come around to admitting that Republicans' radicalization was a racist backlash against the election of Barack Obama.

The "Morning Joe" host, a former Republican himself, said he had long been skeptical of that notion, but he said the evidence had become too obvious to deny.

A legal expert walked through the Justice Department's new lawsuit challenging Texas Republicans' plans to redraw congressional and state legislative districts.

The suit accuses the GOP majority of acting with discriminatory intent and violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, and civil rights attorney Charles Coleman Jr. explained the merits of the case to MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough reacted to the latest bombshell revelations about the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Col. Earl Matthews, a D.C. National Guard official at the time, issued a scathing 36-page memo accusing Gen. Charles Flynn, who served as deputy chief of staff for operations on Jan. 6, and Lt. Gen. Walter Piatt, the director of Army staff, of lying to Congress about their response to the U.S. Capitol riot -- and the "Morning Joe" host said investigators must unravel the coordination between Donald Trump's White House and the Pentagon on that day.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough ripped a Republican lawmaker who shared a photo of his family decked out in Christmas attire and armed to the teeth with military-style rifles.

The "Morning Joe" co-hosts ran through a weekend's worth of dim-witted and menacing tweets posted by Republican politicians, but Scarborough was particularly disturbed by the photo shared by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY).

Panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" discussed how Mitch McConnell's machinations to pack the U.S. Supreme Court had "radicalized" the justices he got confirmed.

The three justices nominated by former president Donald Trump, after McConnell held up a nominee by Barack Obama and rushed one last pick in the days before the November 2020 election, signaled they would undo abortion rights in a Mississippi case, and the panelists agreed the political scheming had turned the court into a highly politicized body.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough mocked Mark Meadows for calling his own bombshell revelation about Donald Trump's COVID-19 diagnosis "fake news."

The former White House chief of staff went on Newsmax late Wednesday and agreed with Trump that the account in his forthcoming book was "fake news," after the twice-impeached one-term president denied that he had tested positive for the coronavirus three days before his first debate with Joe Biden, and before he interacted multiple times with the public.
