Scarborough Suggests White House Used Intel Chair to Change Headlines, ‘Blow up’ House Investigation
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/23/2017 7:24:27 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Joe Scarborough has suggested that—in order to change the headlines and “blow up” the House investigation into ties between the Trump campaign and Russians—the White House “shoved” House intel committee chairman Devin Nunes in front of the cameras to reveal that communications of President Trump and associates may have been intercepted after the election by intelligence agencies conducting surveillance of foreign targets.

Said Scarborough on today’s Morning Joe: “it just looked like, and sounded like from some reporting I did yesterday, that you had the White House desperate to do anything to change headlines this morning, because, again, from the reporting I did yesterday, talking to people in the White House, they were so desperate to change the narrative that it looks like they shoved him out with this information—just any information, anything—to change the headlines. And to blow up the investigation in the House. And it looks like that’s exactly what they did.”

Shut up Joey and drink you coffee. Nobody shives a git what you have to say. Why don’t don’t you “suggest” that it wasn’t the Rooskis who kicked your queen, Clintoonie’s, ass and that it was President Trump who did.

Why wouldn’t the White House have done that a week or two ago if what Scarborough is saying is true?

I used to tune into Morning Joe just to see what the enemy was thinking. Now that Morning Joe has made it clear that their stance will always be against Trump, there is nothing to see. I simply check out what Fox is covering, and I know that Morning Joe will ignore the good, highlight the bad, and spin as hard as they can to make everything seem negative.

To Hell with them.

:: Scarborough’s deep dive into conspiracy theory ::

Disagree...look at how many times in the OA “Joe (what dead intern?) Scarborough” says...”according to the reporting I did previously”.

It’s all about Joe framing the issue.

Scarborough is a slow learner. Trump doesn't act out of desperation.

To win, one has to stick with the strategy. If the strategy needs to be changed, it is changed.

Desperation must not influence the strategy or action.

Am I reading this correctly? It's not semi-satire? Did Scarborough just say that proof (it hasn't been refuted) that Comey lied and there was surveillance is part of a Trump plot?

This morning, McCain and other maniacs were saying that letting the Pres know was disloyal to the committee. Based on statements like that, one can conclude that the hearings are an excuse to not tell the president about it!

Those swamp waters sure do run deep.

Yeah, Joe, the truth’ll do mighty works....change narratives, lead people down the correct path, even destroy your pathetic templates.

BTW, who watches this guy?

Well we know that Joe got his marching orders as well as the rest of the MSM. Just flip on any of the alphabet networks and the cable shows and the narrative is the White House is controlling Nunes and his committee. Laughable!

True dat. I watched for awhile after the election because it was humorous. But then it turned into solid RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA. No wonder they have no ratings.

-—McCain and other maniacs were saying that letting the Pres know was disloyal -—

Waiting for the ever loyal demsucker Mcscum who has been crowing constantly that President Trump owes Oslimebama an apology for the wiretap claims to now insist that Oslime comes clean and apologizes for doing what he was accused of doing.

waiting ... waiting ... waiting
