Has Morning Joe avoided appearing on his show today because his

"Moscow Mitch" has been so successful? Inquiring minds want to know. Supposedly, he is under the weather today.😊😊 No mention of the term Moscow Mitch on the show, yet.

Moscow Mitch! Moscow Mitch! Moscow Mitch!

Seems to be in the hot seat for not taking a stand for the man who stood up for him.

Mika is doing a fine job with Steele and Robinson.

Mark is a slimy snake.

that's ok, they are roasting Mark Meadows today for his weak ass response to Trump after Cummings stuck up for Meadows when he was attacked for being racist.

But I think the Moscow Mitch hit too close to home for the PTB... and the word went out to MSNBC to have Joe sit down for a while (probably a week).

They are not stopping Mika. Of course she has been a Democrat all her life.

Joe is now saying he is ashamed to have ever been a Republican.I am waiting on his apology to the Clinton’s. The one time he managed to get Clinton on I thought he would kiss his ring.

Answer that neither one were racist. He threw Cummings under the bus. Cowardly, small man.

and while finishing up his book he was reminded of his depravity in supporting the whole Republican effort to destroy our democracy...sick of his own guilt and remorse...

But perhaps I am expecting too much.

that's why he made his little speech from the floor of the Senate the other day. He's wanting to avoid being investigated for ties to Russia and Trump/Putin. He's feeling the pressure and he is hoping that he was able to divert the attention away from that.

All I got to say is with the help of Scar - Moscow Mitch is on the run and feeling the heat. We need to keep the pressure on him and also get the appropriate House Committee to investigate him.

Plain and simple to try and get him elected again. If the pressure is kept up Mitch may retire.

He said he almost did before the last election.

Mika was making fun of him again this morning.
