other night. it was okay, not fatal. he tipped his cap the next time he fielded a ground ball properly, and the crowd went crazy. he has that playoff experience. it counts for something. i will say this, and you all know this, even mika knows this, san francisco, the san francisco giants have been one of the most vastly underrated baseball teams in major league baseball throughout the year. here they are. they are on the verge of winning the series with the dodgers. as willie pointed out, the win-loss records were incredibly close, and the dodgers payroll is probably one-third higher han the san francisco giants. yet here they are. san francisco. watch out for them. there you go. mike barnicle, just for the record, i did not know that. but thank you very much. oh, meez. good to have mike barnicle and jonathan lemire. also with us, princeton university s eddie claude, jr., is with us, as well. this morning, two new developments from the white
close contact with someone who had covid. they simply didn t want covid to spread through the school. there s something in the water right now, eddie, in this country. there s something that has emboldened people to be aggressive to teachers, to elementary school nurses, to nurses shopping in grocery stores, to doctors, to people that they deem as out to get them because of what they ve read on facebook or heard on a radio show somewhere. you know, willie, we often try to say that these are fringe elements. in some ways they are, but they ve been mainstreamed. and, you know, in many ways, we re at a cold civil war. it turned hot on january 6th. it is turning hot in these local spaces. think about it, they reported her to the dcf. said her child had burn marks, right? they re threatening, brannis brandishing guns.
because, eddie, when there are people that read too much facebook, eddie here you go. eddie, when there are too many people who read too much facebook good morning, t.j. what happens is they start asking questions. i ve had a lot of people call me and say, you know, kids can t really get covid, can they? if they can, why do they need a vaccination? it doesn t make any sense. this is all some one world conspiracy or bill gates conspiracy or sorros conspiracy. i said, there s a reason why you and i and our children and everybody got polio vaccines when there wasn t much of a chance we were going to get polio. or the four or other five vaccines they give us. because you want to have a universal vaccine to make sure that we get rid of whatever disease we re trying to get rid of, whatever virus we re trying
of the most patient people on earth, honestly. other than you. every day. number two, jen. number one, mika. patient with me, and i m grateful for that. welcome back to morning joe. mike barnicle and eddie glaude still with us. we have white house reporter for the associated press, jonathan lemire. eddie, i was telling my wife during break, people say, oh, you all are great and have come together. i was telling my wife in the break, it is so great to know that you re still a liberal. at heart, you re still a liberal. so are you. she s like, oh, people go into lululemon with shopping bags, and they steal $2,000 worth of i m talking about toothpaste. clothes, well, because of the sad state of affairs. i shout it out, who yelled, the kennedys win after all? it was you and me.
sasses, the people who are supposed to be responsible. the only reasonable party it seems because the other is overrun, we need to save democracy. we see in real time these folk are trying to overthrow what we cherish most. here you have these idiots in texas, willie, a county donald trump won by 81%, trying to run somebody off. you see it with school board members having their lives threatened, having their children threatened. we see it everywhere. it is, again, connect the dots. this is pretty obvious stuff. yeah. it s not a dress rehearsal. as eddie says, it is happening right now. listen to the attorney general of michigan who says she fears for her life. they have extra security. crazy. governor of the state was the victim of a plot to kidnap and perhaps kill her. that s real. that happened.
