'That was the mask coming down': Kamala Harris said to have exposed Fox News in real-time

According to MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski, Vice President Kamala Harris did serious damage to the already shaky reputation of Fox News when she busted Fox personality Bret Baier for running a deceptive clip of Donald Trump.

In a highly scrutinized segment, Trump's "enemy within" attack on his critics came up, and the Fox interviewer shared a clip of the former president blowing it off and turning himself into a victim of persecution that led Harris to rebuke him with "That's not what you just showed."

She then added, "Here’s the bottom line, he has repeated it many times, and you and I both know that. And you and I both know that he has talked about turning the American military against the American people. He has talked about going after people who are engaged in peaceful protest.”

Trump busted for slip-up admission about the Jan. 6 insurrection

During a discussion on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on the dueling interviews of Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump on Wednesday, co-host Jonathan Lemire singled out an admission by the former president on the Jan. 6 insurrection that appears to have gone unnoticed.

Speaking with co-hosts Mika Brzezinski and Wilie Geist, Lemire first praised Harris' performance on Fox News where she faced an abrasive Bret Baier, telling the panel, "The Harris people I spoke to in the aftermath of the interview said it showed real toughness. They love that she was able to say things to Fox News viewers who wouldn't normally hear them. It's not a coincidence; this interview happened hours after she appeared with a dozen of Republicans, lawmakers who are supporting her."

Turning back to Trump, he pointed to a clip of the former president appearing at a Univision town hall where he was asked about the 2020 presidential election and the Jan. 6 MAGA riot that followed.

As the obviously fuming Lemire explained, "Mika, one more note about Donald Trump yesterday, the clip we played about January 6th, talking about 'we,' as he always talks about, uses the word 'we' when he talks about the January 6th rioters."

"He said, 'we were there peacefully, they had the guns," he reported. "The 'they'? They were Capitol police officers –– that shows you Donald Trump's framing of January 6th."
