nancy, nancy! donald trump last night in his cnn town hall, calling january 6th a beautiful day. the event, of course, last night full of lies, misleading statements. we ll go through the biggest ones, and also his comments about writer e. jean carroll that drew laughs and cheers from the crowd. good morning. welcome to morning joe. it is thursday, may 11th. we have the host of way too early, white house bureau chief jonathan lemire. jen palmieri. jon meacham. and reporter for the washington post, jackie alemany. we watched a rerun from 2016 and what we saw throughout donald trump s presidency. he committed again last night the claim that the election was rigged in 2020. it was not, of course. he called january 6th a beautiful day. he said he was going to pardon the people who attacked police officers on that day. the list goes on and on and on. would not commit to supporting ukraine in its war with russia. we ll get into some of it but, frankly, no surprises in w
? and don t often see essentially a refugee camp inside the u.s., but that is what this is. with jobs available around the country we don t expect these people to meet voluntarily they have come too far we found migrants who did what they were told where they applied for asylum using the cbp one app. it s like a winning lottery ticket so that the man from russia who was a opposed to the war. i had to stand with the borders for at the same time, i you don t feel like you belong in someplace you just look for place that suits you better. so this migrant camp, stagin inside the primary border fence it appears chaotic, but it s no accident. everybody here is because the cartel said so. agents told me they bus 3-400 migrants out per day but the group doesn t shrink. most are high-value immigrants indians, chinese, africans, paying tens of thousands of dollars if someone is seeking those rules apply that the same equally regardless of where tha person comes from. for many t
early on this tuesday morning. morning joe starts right now. i don t know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence over some type of alleged affair, i can t speak to that. right. ouch. left hook. yeah. you know, also, i can t answer any questions about playboy stars. i can t answer those questions. oh, and i know nothing about having businesses that go bankrupt after you inherit $400 million from your father. i can t speak to blowing that money that quickly. can t speak to being creepy. come on now. come on. boy, that was quite the defense, wasn t it, willie? it was. it actually was the first time really with any strength we ve seen governor desantis speak out. i guess that was indirect. and amid some other things. it quickly spun to an attack on the investigation, an attack on the manhattan district attorney, as a soros-backed leftist, everything you expect, but he dipped his toe in the trump criticism. i saw it. let s hear
state of our economy. good evening. the day started well enough for biden with a jobs report showing the u.s. economy adding 311,000 jobs last month. we created more jobs in two years than any administration created in the first four years. it s no accident. it mean our economic plan is working. but that good news was quickly overtaken by bad news that could get a lot worse. thank you. thank you. silicon valley bank may not be a house hold name. but it is a very big deal in term of lending to and financing operations of many leading tech companies. and today, it collapsed. struggling with high interest rates, unable to find a buyer. well, the very last time we ve seen a bank of this magnitude fell was in 2008. and, that could be a true indication of where our economy is at. now, the white house insists comparisons with the financial crisis of 2008 are overblown. our banking system is fundamentally different because of the changes that we put in place in 2008.
