Listen in on this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough and Mike Barnicle ask they reflect on Axios CEO Jim VandeHei’s latest op-ed titled “A message to college students,” which suggests that today's college students are being "duped" by a narrative of "impending doom" and a "crisis of hope" promoted by social media and politicians. Barnicle suggests reading about the country’s history, in books written by Rick Atkinson, for example: “You come away stunned—stunned at what the United States of America meant to the world and still means to the world. It's amazing to read histories like this of who we are, the fiber, the spine of what it means to be an American and that still exists today.”

"What we often fail to do is recognize the innate genius of Donald Trump in terms of building up the exhaustion factor, like...that three hour and fifteen-minute cabinet meeting. The exhaustion factor. What happens when you're exhausted? You either go to sleep, or you turn away and try and do something else. That's what's happened to the American electorate I think; that's what's happened to the Democratic Party. They’re exhausted from this every single day, instead of sitting down and saying, ‘listen we've got to come up with a proposal here,’” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle about the Democratic Party’s inability to sway or reach voters in the era of President Donald Trump during this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.

"The reality is we now live in a world, a political world, coming out of the White House, where if you sign a letter saying: ‘This is going to be trouble, you know, you're letting this go. It's not as good as it used to be,’ you are dismissed. You are sent home. You are told to go home,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle as the Morning Joe panel weighs in on the Trump administration placing more than a dozen Federal Emergency Management Agency employees on leave after they signed an open letter of dissent about the agency’s leadership.

“Donald Trump's position on the National Guard, inserting them into Washington, D.C., allegedly trying to put them into places like Chicago and Baltimore, has shades of 1968 when the Republican Party first took over law and order as an issue and then remained strong with that issue since 1968. Richard Nixon campaigned for president talking about law and order throughout the country…But today… it’s a misuse of the National Guard. You insert them into a city where probably more likely than not many members of that unit don't come from the District of Columbia. They don't know the neighborhood, they don’t know the players in neighborhoods, from one neighborhood to another, and they’re wasting their time really,” says Morning Joe contributor Mike Barnicle about President Donald Trump’s deployment of the National Guard troops to Washington, D.C. as part of his crackdown on crime.

Watch this Morning Joe segment about the impact the federal government is having on the city of Chicago and the state of Illinois due to its withholding of funds that would benefit local school children and threats of deployment of the National Guard to deal with crime. “Chicago, it's just like a lot of other American cities, big American cities, especially if you pull the string on crime...you’ll find that, that string will lead you to fractured family structures, it will lead you to juvenile crime—growing juvenile crime—and it will lead you eventually to not enough good teachers and not enough good elementary schools. So, my question to you is in terms of the money that you're talking about, the federal government taken from you: How much is being deprived from getting to local public schools in Chicago?” asks veteran columnist Mike Barnicle of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D), a former public school teacher serving as the 57th mayor of the third-largest city in the United States by population.

“In a litany of tragedies, the hostages still remain number one, number one. And it's been going on now for two years, held hostage. And now we're down to, according to news reports, perhaps less than 20 have survived, less than 20….The reason the hostages are still hostages, the reason the war still continues is because Bibi Netanyahu knows the day the war ends his trial begins in Tel Aviv,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the hostages being held in the Gaza Strip since the October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas during this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Katty Kay, David Ignatius and Mika Brzezinski.

“In addition to the enormous human tragedy that we're talking about right now and that occurred just a couple of days ago, this is a tragedy for Israel as a whole—a global tragedy for Israel,” says Morning Joe contributor Mike Barnicle during this morning’s conversation with Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Jonathan Lemire and Willie Geist as they remember the five journalists killed in Gaza after an Israeli strike on a hospital, which has received mounting international condemnation. "Israel needs friends. It has always needed friends; but under Bibi Netanyahu and the conduct of the IDF in waging this war against Hamas, Israel is winning no friends. It's losing friends rapidly and the idea that the IDF is continuing to wage war against Hamas under the goal of, as Bibi Netanyahu has pointed out, eliminating Hamas. You're never going to eliminate Hamas. It's not going to happen, and the reason it's not going to happen is because of the constant warfare against Hamas in Gaza. You've earned another generation's contempt of Palestinians toward Israel.”

Watch this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Jonathan Lemire, Mika Brzezinski and Mike Barnicle as they discuss President Donald Trump signaling that he might deploy the National Guard to U.S. cities including Chicago, even as his crackdown in the capital of Washington, D.C. has been met with anger from local residents. “It's a sad case when you have National Guardsmen patrolling streets like in Georgetown or whatever, or central Washington, D.C. which is quite active, quite thriving, restaurants and everything...and now they're strapped with pistols on leg holsters. These are largely weekend people who train maybe once a month….This is a disaster waiting to happen—and the idea of sending the National Guard to Baltimore or Chicago is beyond outrageous for similar reasons,” says Barnicle about President Trump’s strategy of deploying the National Guard into American cities to combat crime.

Tune in for this Morning Joe panel discussion with Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) about the future of the Democratic Party ahead of the 2026 midterm elections and how the focus needs to shift back to an economic message. "What's the Democrats' plan in the House to deal with lack of primary care physicians?...It's impossible to find a doctor now, rising electric costs because AI gobbles up everything and, your electric bill is like 50 percent higher now than it was earlier. And the cost of living, the cost of living continues each and every week to go up for a lot of people, especially in the one place that everybody goes to—the grocery store,” asks veteran columnist Mike Barnicle. Hear what Gottheimer has to say here about how Democrats "care about" and are “still fighting" for everyday citizen.
