MSNBC's Joe Scarborough bashed "disrespectful" Republican lawmakers for badgering and interrupting Secretary of State Anthony Blinken during a hearing on the Afghanistan troop withdrawal.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough ripped Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's "preposterous" comments about eliminating rapes in his state.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough blasted President Joe Biden's handling of Afghanistan -- but said he didn't want to hear any criticism of the troop withdrawal from Donald Trump or his former officials.

The "Morning Joe" host spent Tuesday morning bashing the Biden administration for leaving the country to be quickly overtaken by the Taliban, saying they betrayed Afghan allies and the sacrifice made by American troops, but he placed much of the blame for the crisis on the former president.

MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski trashed Donald Trump's dealings with the Taliban as "treasonous" -- but still laid blame for Afghanistan's collapse on President Joe Biden.

Gov. Ron DeSantis has cultivated a reputation as a more competent Donald Trump, but MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and John Heilemann wondered whether that would survive the latest Florida coronavirus surge.

The Florida governor has moved to block local governments and school boards from imposing COVID-19 precautions, and the "Morning Joe" panelists questioned the narrative comparing DeSantis to the twice-impeached one-term president.
