‘Morning Joe': Scarborough Rails on Steve Scalise for ‘Lying Through Your Teeth’ Over Jan. 6 Insurrection
The Louisiana Congressman came under fire after video evidence showed him with Speaker Nancy Pelosi and others
"As more video footage of the Jan. 6 insurrection comes to light, so, too, does the hypocrisy of various Republican politicians who claim one truth while experiencing another. The latest example got “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough fired up Friday. Rep. Steve Scalise didn’t have the morning news host mincing words: “I couldn’t imagine … lying through my teeth on an issue,” he said. Ever since the Jan. 6 insurrection on the Capitol in Washington, D.C., the actions of Speaker Nancy Pelosi have especially been brought into question, with former president Donald Trump, Rep. Scalise and others claiming that she should have done more to secure the building while under siege.
Those criticisms, however, hit a snag this week when never-before-seen footage of Pelosi calling in the National Guard went viral Friday. Scalise, it turns out, is shown in the footage as being an active witness to Pelosi’s efforts, as well. “I’m serious about this, I couldn’t imagine in a million years holding a press conference as a member of Congress, I was there, being that cynical, lying through my teeth on an issue — on any issue, but especially an issue of this importance,” Scarborough said."
Steve was very smart to say what he said about Pelosi; who cares if it wasn't actually true...it feels good to believe it....who cares that he was in the room looking like a weak little bitch while Pelosi was doing exactly what he claimed she didn't do -- it still feels good to believe it....so now all of the libs are triggered just because Scalise has no shame and will lie with impugnity...that is what being a strong patriotic Conservative is all about.....deal with it libs!
