CNN conservative pundit Scott Jennings was teased on-air Thursday for suggesting that Sen. Mitch McConnell would likely release a new statement sometime by Monday.

During a segment with CNN anchor Kasie Hunt, Jennings was asked if he had heard anything new from McConnell. Jennings claimed earlier this month that he had a 17-minute phone call with McConnell, whom he has known since he was a teenager and previously worked for. The MAGA commentator has faced growing criticism over his comments, including a network statement that the company would not vouch for Jennings' comments — and that they don't represent the organization's reporting.

CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings mocked a former Obama official for claiming she was terrified over Elon Musk's "conflict of interest" with the government agencies he's tasked with reforming.

"Okay, fine. you want to make cuts, make cuts," Xochitl Hinojosa declared on Sunday's State of the Union. "There are significant conflicts of interest when it comes to Elon Musk, and that is the problem. He owns several businesses where personal data and personal information could benefit his financial interests."

She continued, "And the sources that I've been talking to within the FBI are actually terrified that he is trying to put people within the FBI in order to advance his financial interests. One example of that is, he wants the FBI to start using Starlink. So how frightening is that?" ...
