On Monday morning, MSNBC "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough dumped all over the Republicans leading the investigations into Joe Biden's family and singled out Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) for admitting he doesn't care if there was criminal activity or not.
That set off Scarborough.
"That's just -- that's again, Michael Kinsley's definition of a gaffe where somebody in Washington accidentally tells the truth," Scarborough told his panel.
"I mean, we have that time and time again whether it's the Durham investigation, whether it's the Comer investigation, these people keep humiliating themselves," he continued before adding, "And it's left to the Wall Street Journal editorial page to try to clean it up for them, but even they're saying there's no smoking gun."

That led panelist Katty Kay to chime in, "Yeah. Coming out on top of the committee chair said this was good for ratings, you wonder what the impetus is."
"Mika [Brzezinski] is right, when you look at the polling heading into the 2022 midterm elections, the idea of investigating the Biden family didn't rank anywhere," she added, "I literally didn't see it anywhere in the top 10 polling issues that people were concerned about, and yet it seems to be something that certain members of Congress and the Republican party are very focused on. And obviously, you know, if crimes are being committed they should be investigated and found. But the Durham report found that there wasn't the smoking gun that certainly Donald Trump had been hoping for."
