  1. Linda And Ron Hoekstra

    We listen to Morning Joe every morning! Both My husband and I look forward to your reporting and your critical analysis of the current “state of affairs!” Your words are carefully chosen and always appropriate! You are the BEST!!

  2. I just read your article about Biden’s 1st press conference. You mention nothing of his cognitive shortcomings. Instead, you craft your article as him being a disciplined communicator. You mention how they carefully manage his appearances. This is BS and you know it. He is not physically and mentally capable of making appearances. He has 5% of the stamina that Trump has and you try to spin it as him being disciplined. What a load of c*ap.

  3. Terrible journalist. Zero journalistic integrity and truly delusional.

    If I want an opinion, I go to the op-ed. That is all you do. Unbelievably biased/opinion writings and commentary. It would be laughable if it wasn’t so sad. Absolutely devoid of critical thinking!

  4. Patricia Kirwin Renaud

    I, Patricia Kirwin, was engaged to be married to Robert Lemire in 1951 Windsor Ontario Canada.

    My granddaughter Michelle Witte talk show host Sputnik Press also graduated From Univerisity of MARYLAND the year you did. My brother who researches these things believes Bob Lemire’s first love was your great grandfather. Well whether or not that is true, You are a great reporter and I watch Joe Scarborough every morning.

    Hope you will have time to let us know.

    PATRICIA KIRWIN RENAUD (published author).

  5. My name is Ivan Boisvert from Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada, and involved in genealogy.

    Have you traced you, ancestors, and are they from Québec?

  6. I think you have a wonderful mind. Keep up the great work even though you may run into pockets of recalcitrance.

  7. Did you make the statement that Trump’s extension of benefits is an election savior? Were you writing this story as a journalist? If so your opinion does not belong in this news story!!

  8. Jonathan Lemire:

    This is Garrison Nelson, retired Professor of Political Science at the University of Vermont. I see that you are from Lowell. I am from Lynn, a fellow native of one of Massachusetts factory towns. Tough places to grow up. This morning, October 16, on Morning Joe, I saw a pile of books beside your chair. At the top of the pile was John Farrell’s Tip O’Neill and the American Century. Tip, like both of us, came from Massachusetts. I am the author pf John William McCormack: A Political Biography (New York: Bloomsbury, 2017). And as you know, Speaker McCormack was from South Boston and Tip’s mentor.

    As a fan of your incisive commentary, I would like to send you an inscribed copy of my book. It has been well-reviewed in the WSJ and the Globe. I am unsure where I should send the book — NYC or Washington, DC?

    With admiration,
    Garrison Nelson, PhD.

  9. Just read your article about Trump sowing chaos. I don’t consider it chaos. I consider it a positive thing sticking up for the taxpayer. When will you start reporting on all of the negative actions of Antifa and BLM burning, looting, and the beating of innocent people? Protests are good. Peaceful protests. We had to listen to the media and watch the Russian investigation for almost 4 years. I suppose you will report on the Biden’s and their Chinese involvements sometime soon. Would have been a good idea to do it before the election which you failed to do, why didn’t you?

    Personally, I would like to see your debate with Tucker Carlson or Shawn Hannity. I’m sure they. Would love to give you time on their shows to present your opinions.

  10. Jonathan,

    I noticed a silhouette of ballroom dancers behind you when you commented on MSNBC. Are you a ballroom dancer?

  11. Sheree Walker Lenoir

    To the person that criticized the person who commented about Trump’s jealousy of Obama. You are rude. Who died and made you the police of Language Arts?

    1. It’s “to the person who” not “that. ”
      Who designates a live being.
      That refers to an inanimate thing.
      And I may not be the police of Language Arts; however, I am a retired university English instructor.
