On Friday morning, longtime Washington D.C. reporters Jonathan Lemire and Peter Baker of the New York Times, as well as conservative columnist Matt Lewis, admitted they were stunned that Republicans turned a blind eye to Donald Trump’s crypto dinner.

During a segment on the president’s much-criticized dinner at his golf club in northern Virginia that took place Thursday night, Lemire prompted guest Baker with, “I mean, you’ve covered the White House for a long time. I mean, I’m almost speechless at this. Could you imagine if Barack Obama or Joe Biden did anything like it?“

“No, we couldn’t, they could –– they never did anything like this,” Baker responded. “It’s not the first presidential family that kind of profited off the White House; you can certainly find other examples of that in history. But the scale of this, the scope of this is so far beyond anything history has ever seen.”

 I don’t think the Democrats yet have the juice to take what is just transparently bribery and make it matter to the American people.”

Former assistant director of the FBI, Frank Figliuzzi, levied a wild accusation about Kash Patel, claiming that the current FBI boss spends more time out clubbing than he does at work. 

‘Reportedly, he’s been visible at nightclubs far more than he has been on the seventh floor of the Hoover building,’ Figliuzzi said on Friday’s episode of MSNBC’s Morning Joe. 

Figliuzzi was the assistant director for counterintelligence at the FBI after serving as a special agent for 25 years. 

…

Figliuzzi said Patel frequents nightclubs more than he does the seventh floor of the Hoover building, where the FBI offices are located. 

‘And there are reports that daily briefings to him have been changed from every day to maybe twice weekly,’ he added. 

Figliuzzi explained that Patel’s absence is a ‘blessing and a curse,’ due to his lack of experience in the field.

Rat deserts sinking sh*t!

In the wake of Donald Trump’s highly controversial decision to put in place a wall of international tariffs that has roiled the business world, the president’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is reportedly looking to move on from his current job slightly more than two months after being sworn in.

That is according to MSNBC host and former Wall Street executive Stephanie Ruhle, who appeared on “Morning Joe” on Friday.

Speaking with co-host Jonathan Lemire, Ruhle first pointed out that she has been unable to find people who support Trump’s decision to begin a trade war that is causing worldwide economic chaos.
