On Wednesday, Morning Joe — in the persons of Joe Scarborough, Richard Haass, Anne Gearan, and Willie Geist — tore into Biden's mishandling of the cancellation of Australia's submarine-building contract with France in favor of one with the US.
But Biden had one, lonely, backer: Mika Brzezinski. She piped up throughout the long segment, doing her best to defend Biden. Brzezinski expressed doubt as to whether the US, UK, and Australia really went behind France's back. She said the situation isn't "black and white"—to which Scarborough shot back, "it is black and white." She suggested France should have known there was a problem with their subs. She claimed there was "more to the story."
At one point, Scarborough mocked Mika, saying, "I know you're doing your best," to defend Biden.

Mika’s attempt to defend Biden’s mishandling of submarine deal so pathetic even husband Scarborough mocks her.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
The dumb and dumber show. What a waste of airtime.
Does anyone watch this POS show?
Hard to believe, I know, but as of June, Morning Joe had an average daily audience of just under 1 million viewers.
“Does anyone watch this POS show?”
I saw about 10 mins in a waiting area once.
This is how bad it is for Biden. Joe would rather talk about this disaster than all the others because no one really cares about submarines and who buys them.
Every day Joe Scarborough is free to roam the planet, is a day of injustice.
“Look. I hired a guy to head stomp my intern then arranged to have the most corrupt fixer medical examiner falsify the cause of death.”
“Everybody knows it and so long the cold case stays cold, I’ll just keep saying whatever it is I need to say to keep my multimillion dollar home.”
“I don’t care about my country, I only care about myself”
There it is in summary.
Amazing how no one outside of the Chinese really understands what happened with this sub deal.
Had Australia bought the French subs they’d have submarines that would be well suited to defending Australia from the bandit Chinese navy.
But with buying nuclear submarines the Australians will be capable of turning a defensive war into an offensive war. Australian nuclear submarines will be able to range at will across the Pacific and into Chinese waters to destroy the pirate PLAN at will.
The power balance in the Pacific shifts back to the good guys with Australia having a first rate submarine fleet.
Mika: Full disclosure———— I love to eat their fries. But I try not to let that influence my political analysis or my philosophical thinking on issues.
That's the way I read it, too.
Modern nuclear attack subs will put the RAN back in the game.
And shame on France if they didn't know this was coming.
And that hand full of D-E subs are just a blip on France's defense production - a lot of whine for very little impact.

That is a good analysis, and one that I can assure you is understood at some level in the Navy. It may be lost on the Media and the Administration, but not on the USN...at some level.
I read the Aussies can’t crew their subs now. Crewing 12 Shortfin Barracuda diesel electrics may not be possible. However crewing a smaller number of nukes is possible. A smaller number of higher quality boats may be preferable. If France has a problem it’s with the Aussies not us.
The Beavis and Butthead show.
I certainly hope a fascist, police state like Australia aren’t getting submarines from ANYONE. F Australia
I think that Biden is going to buy the French submarines.
Biden said,
“Buying these French submarines is like eating French snails. You have to wash them down with a lot of champagne. Just be sure it’s good California champagne and not any of that crappy French bath water.”
Ordering the Biden-puppet to destroy NATO was one of China’s most brilliant foreign policy moves.
