Today's "Shocked - Shocked!"

Rachel Maddow:


Republican ass-kissers are again having to work overtime to ignore it and cover it up, or to distract from it, or they're lining up to rationalize it. Understand, they're not trying to deny it - they're trying to make it seem like it's not another stomach-turning fucked up mess because of 45*'s self-dealing and ineptitude - exacerbated by their own failures to stand up to a blustering bullying pseudo-macho washed-up game show host.

...because it's in Russia's interest to keep us bogged down - it flips the 1980s script so now it's Putin playing the good guy helping the Afghanis fight the imperialists and blah blah blah.

While some of his closest advisers, like Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, have counseled more hawkish policies toward Russia, Mr. Trump has adopted an accommodating stance toward Moscow.
