'''Charles Joseph "Joe" Scarborough''' (born April 9, 1963) is a [[liberal]] [[conspiracy theorist]] who hosts a show part-time on [[MSNBC]]. He served as a  U.S. [[Representative]] from [[Florida]]'s 1st congressional district from 1995 through 2001.<ref>https://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2001-05-25-scarborough.htm</ref> He went on to host MSNBC's Morning Joe and The Joe Scarborough Show on ABC Radio Network. Previously he hosted "Scarborough Country" in primetime on MSNBC.  Scarborough pushes wild conspiracy theories on his program such as the [[Trump-Russia collusion hoax]] and [[Jeffrey Epstein]]'s murder by [[Vladimir Putin]].

After serving in the House as a [[RINO]], Scarborough has come out of the closet as a full-fledged [[Leftist]], bashing Republicans in agreement with MSNBC leftist agenda. He claimed to be a conservative on the show, often touting his supposed credentials within the GOP and the [[ACU]] rating he received while in Congress before he worked for MSNBC. He calls himself a conservative but frequently bashes conservative principles and people. His stance on [[gun control]] shifted drastically and now Scarborough is a firm supporter of new laws restricting gun ownership. To be fair, he is the most conservative host and most conservative MSNBC commentator. Nonetheless, he is at best a centrist and at worst a left-of-center host, and aligns himself with the extreme Left conspiracy theories and hate rhetoric of other hosts such as [[Al Sharpton]]. He did seemed pleased when it was announced that liberals like Ed Schultz left the network.

Charles Joseph “Joe” Scarborough (born April 9, 1963, age 61) is a left-wing fascist conspiracy theorist who hosts a show part-time on MSNBC. He served as a U.S. Representative from Florida's 1st congressional district from 1995 through 2001.[1] He resigned when the body of a girl who worked for him, Lori Klausutis, was found dead in his congressional office.[2] He went on to host MSNBC's Morning Joe and The Joe Scarborough Show on ABC Radio Network. Previously he hosted "Scarborough Country" in primetime on MSNBC. Scarborough pushes wild conspiracy theories such as the Trump-Russia collusion hoax and Jeffrey Epstein's murder by Vladimir Putin.[3] Scarborough previously had been a staunch defender and advocate for Jeffrey Epstein.[4]

Scarborough called for U.S. President Donald Trump to resign in 2017, in line with anti-Trump liberals (although he did call out other liberals reporting fake news about Trump earlier, although this is likely just a pretense to make him look balanced[5]).[6] He also defended CNN after a damaging scandal in which it promoted a retracted anti-Trump fake news story in order to increase its ratings.[7] In July 2017, Scarborough showed how liberal he had become by finally leaving the GOP.[8] He made this switch official on October 12, 2017.[9] In 2017, Scarborough responded to a false story by The Hill by saying that "despite the stupidity of my former party, there is no inner liberal inside of me. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.) My party just went bats*** crazy."[10] In July 2018, he stated that the GOP "no longer deserves to survive."[11] In December 2018, he claimed Trump was "the worst president in modern times, and perhaps ever."[12]

During the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, who was charged for defending himself against two white Black Lives Matter criminal rioters that assaulted him with deadly intent, Scarborough claimed Rittenhouse fired off 60 rounds.[13]

Transitioning

After serving in the House as a RINO, Scarborough has come out of the closet as a full-fledged Leftist, bashing Republicans in agreement with MSNBC's leftist agenda. He claimed to be a "conservative" on the show, often touting his supposed credentials within the GOP and the ACU rating he received while in Congress before he worked for MSNBC. He calls himself a "conservative" but frequently bashes conservative principles and people. His stance on gun control shifted drastically and now Scarborough is a firm supporter of new laws restricting gun ownership. To be fair, he is the most conservative host and most conservative MSNBC commentator. Nonetheless, he is at best a centrist and at worst a left-of-center host, and aligns himself with the extreme Left conspiracy theories and hate rhetoric of other hosts such as Al Sharpton. He seemed pleased when it was announced that liberals like Ed Schultz left the network.

Scarborough was elected during Newt Gingrich's 1994 Republican Revolution and served on the Judiciary Committee and the Armed Services Committee. Scarborough voted as a reliable conservative at the time, earning a 95% rating from the American Conservative Union.[14] After leaving Congress he joined the law firm of Beggs and Lane. In recent years Scarborough has come out openly on the Left and has been critical of conservative leaders such as Rush Limbaugh, Karl Rove, and Glenn Beck. "We have not been conservative as a party, we've been radical."[15] His 2009 book The Last Best Hope: Restoring Conservatism and America's Promise, which was highly promoted on left-leaning media outlets, was unsuccessful in book sales.[16]

Eddie Scarry of The Federalist penned a piece entitle, Joe Biden Caring About MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ Explains So Much Of His Nightmare Presidency observed "Joe Biden and Kamala Harris reportedly have an “obsession” with the most dimwitted show on cable news. Suddenly, it all makes sense. If that’s where the White House is getting its cues from, no wonder we’ve been so terminally screwed."[17]

Personal

After a live-in courtship of many years (while still legally married to his then second wife), Scarborough married Mika Brzezinski, daughter of President Jimmy Carter' National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski who masterminded arming groups affiliated with Osama bin Laden during the Soviet-Afghan War.[18][19]

On July 20, 2001, at 8:10 AM, the body of Lori Klausutis was discovered on the floor of the North Fort Walton Beach office of Congressman Joe Scarborough of Florida.[20] Klausutis was 28 years old.[21] A video exists of Scarborough joking that he had an affair with a staff intern and had to kill her.[22]
