Wall Street Journal shredded for publishing J.D. Vance's 'moral depravity' about hurricane

Panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" shamed the Wall Street Journal for publishing a disingenuous op-ed by J.D. Vance on president Joe Biden's response to Hurricane Helene.The Republican vice presidential candidate falsely claimed the administration had waited too long to provide aid, diverted disaster relief funding to sheltering migrants and suggested the Federal Emergency Management Agency favored LGBTQ people, which underlines similar false claims made by GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump."You wonder about the editorial standards of the Wall Street Journal, which we respect and read all the time, talk about on the show, just publishing uncritically what J.D. Vance is saying about the management of this hurricane," said co-host Willie Geist. "We've been saying now since Helene hit and Donald Trump has been saying these things. What a disgusting moment to go right to lies, to go right to division when people need unity, they need help."ALSO READ: Busted: Bundy collaborator fueled FEMA conspiracy in Hurricane Helene aftermath"By the way, they're getting the Republican governors of Tennessee and Georgia, as well, that FEMA is doing a great job – they're here, they're on the ground," Geist added. "We talked to Gov. [Roy] Cooper yesterday of North Carolina who said it's a tense moment, there's destruction everywhere you look, but we're getting help, and Donald Trump cannot help himself, and J.D. Vance is the beta, he has to echo the lie. My gosh, what an appalling time to do that."Vance's op-ed was published as another potentially stronger storm bears down on central Florida, and panelist Eddie Glaude shamed the Republican ticket for sowing misinformation and distrust as millions fear for their lives and livelihoods."It's not only bereft, it's reflection of kind of a moral depravity, so that you translate people's sorrows into grievance," Glaude said, "and you're translating people's gravity into that nature. It shows you the calculus informing these folks, it's morally depraved in my view."Host Joe Scarborough recalled when he was in Congress in the 1990s, during the Republican recalcitrance of the Bill Clinton presidency, and said that lawmakers worked together to respond to a string of natural disasters."We had three hurricanes come to shore in northwest Florida," Scarborough said. "Bill Clinton was there, you want the president of the United States there. You want him there, you want everything that comes with the president of the United States there. That's what every governor, governor of Tennessee, Gov. [Bill] Lee, a very conservative Republican, Gov. [Henry] McMaster in South Carolina, very conservative governor, of course, Gov. [Brian] Kemp in Georgia, overwhelmingly popular governor, and you have Sen.
