Warning: when you invite a flamboyant, retired lawyer in his 80s onto your show, you might wind up getting foul language on the air, along with wild conspiracy theories.
Joe Scarborough learned that lesson the hard way today when he invited Martin London onto Morning Joe. London served as a lawyer to Spiro Agnew, and recently wrote a column suggesting that President Trump should consider resigning. At one point, London’s audio cut out, and when it came back, Scarborough said he hoped that his executive producer Alex Korson had hit the seven-second delay. We don’t know what London said — maybe there’s a good lip reader out there — but he apologized: “sorry about that.”
Later, Scarborough asked John Heilemann who was paying Paul Manafort’s legal bills, given that Manafort is “broke.” Heilemann said:
“I do not know the answer to that, but apparently Martin does. He suggested to me, passing me a note right here, that says that he thinks Donald Trump is paying his legal bills.”
When Heilemann asked London what he knows about that, London admitted: “I don’t know anything. I don’t have any facts.”

Anyone willing to trash Trump gets their 15 minutes from the haters in ‘the press’. And that includes Joe and his smiling sycophants...
Look at the time they devoted to sluts, porn stars, creepy lawyers etc. and their disturbing hunger for others from the seamy side... it was disgusting.
We can feel good knowing... knowing... knowing we are NOT like them.
I’m not about to click to see the clip (I leave all matters MSNBC to you, dear Mark!), but as I read it, it wasn’t Angew’s lawyer but Heilman who said “I don’t know anything. I don’t have any facts.” It’s the aging Agnew lawyer who presumes to know something and to have the facts. And to spread his conspiracy rumor on air.
Ed, it was indeed Agnew’s lawyer, Martin London rather than Heilemann who said “I don’t know anything. I don’t have any facts.”
