Listen in on the conversation with Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, Jon Meacham and Mike Barnicle about influential evangelist Christian Franklin Graham calling for South Bend Mayor and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg to “repent” for the “sin” of being gay. “Don't you think it's about time that we in the media separate Franklin Graham from religion because when he speaks now...he separates himself. We might as well be listening to Congressman Steve King from Iowa when you hear Franklin Graham speak,” says Barnicle, referencing anti-gay remarks made by Rep. King (R-IA) during his campaign last year.

Listen in on the Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Eugene Roberts and Mike Barnicle about some Democrats’ call for the impeachment process for President Donald Trump to begin. “There's no notation, no amendment in the Constitution that says—and it ought to—‘stop wasting our time.’ And I think if (the Democrats) do go forward with impeachment proceedings, a majority of Americans are going to think they are wasting ‘our time’—the voter’s time,” says Barnicle. “Let’s get going to the election."

Listen in on the Morning Joe conversation with Mika Brzezinski, Elise Jordan, Rick Tyler and Mike Barnicle about Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez holding tight to his position that the Democratic Party will not reconsider its decision to bar Fox News from hosting a Democratic presidential debate. Says Barnicle: “If you're afraid of Tucker Carlson, how are you going to become President of the United States? Go on Fox News. Reach as many people as you can. Show them that just because you have a ‘D' after your name that you're not ridiculously, ludicrously far left, socialist or whatever—that you speak to the common-sense needs, and problems, and attitudes of most Americans.” Listen to more of the discussion here on MSNBC.

“Elections are choices. It comes down to a choice...‘what do you want?’ And I think an increasing number of Americans—they want calmness, they want a restoration of the spirit of what they think this country is all about. And the spirit of what this country is all about is not lying, it's not malevolence, it's not daily division implemented by the leader of this country—the President of the United States. It’s more to the side of what (Presidential candidate Pete) Buttigieg was talking about,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle as the Morning Joe panel talks about President Donald Trump and special counsel Robert Mueller’s report, a day after South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg announced his candidacy. Listen to more of the discussion here. Only on MSNBC.

Listen in on the Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski and Mike Barnicle about Sunday's historic moments: Tiger Woods’ win of the 2019 Masters tournament at 43 years old and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg, at 37 years old, declaring his candidacy for President of the United States. "It was a remarkable day and two remarkable events,” says Barnicle. “You had two stories that combined to truly represent part of what this country is all about. In Augusta, Georgia, you had a story of resilience...of someone who hurt himself...an epic kind of personal story. And in South Bend, Indiana…young mayor, Pete Buttigieg...talking about the future and basically declaring that the past is the past….The future is here. Hear more of the discussion here.

Hear what Morning Joe’s Mika Brzezinski, Claire McCaskill, Elise Jordan and Mike Barnicle have to say about the mounting criticism surrounding former Vice President Joe Biden’s past affectionate behavior with some women and men, following Biden saying “I get it" and will tone down the touching. Says Barnicle: “Joe Biden...is a genuinely affectionate, caring human being. He is—in a no-contact eye nation, everybody’s staring at their phones—he is an eye-contact guy. He is literally, figuratively. a hands-on guy."

Following the Morning Joe conversation about a New York Times report that indicates some of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigators have told associates that Attorney General William Barr did not accurately convey how damaging their findings were for President Donald Trump, veteran journalist Mike Barnicle explains: “To put a little perspective on it—we're all kind of flying blind. We’re talking about a report that's well over 300 pages, which was boiled down to maybe two sentence fragments which are in the attorney general's release.” Hear more of the discussion here.
