SO DUMB: Morning Joe Says White House Media Ban is ‘Like Watergate’ (VIDEO) * The Gateway Pundit * by Mike LaChance

Joe Scarborough of Morning Joe on MSNOW went on a stupid rant this week, claiming the Trump White House media ban on CNN, MSNOW, and Politico is like Watergate.

Scarborough and one of his panelists mainly reacted to the news that a judge stepped in to reverse the ban, and Joe was clearly angry that the White House didn’t respond quickly enough.

He then says that a time is coming when people in the Trump administration will be made to answer for this, while also claiming that this would not be retribution.

SCARBOROUGH: Who gave them that order? Because whoever gave them that order should go to jail. I mean, that’s contempt of court. There’s an order out there. I, I really want to know what happened yesterday morning.

And, and it, this, I, I’m, I’m not saying this for an isolated reason. There will, there will be a time when justice will be done for people in this administration ignoring court orders.

There will be a time when the masks will be taken off of ICE agents, and justice will be done for every person that they beat, for every person that they jailed, for every person that they starved, for every person that they tortured.

That time is coming. So I want to know, I want somebody to take note in the White House, of the White House, who gave those Secret Service agents, who defied a court order, who gave them that order to defy a federal judge? Because when you defy a federal judge, you’re in contempt. And it keeps going.

And we just see it over and over again. So it’s time to start writing this down, and it’s time to start preparing for that day when Donald Trump is not there to protect you.

And is this called retribution? No, no, no, because we don’t do retribution in America. What this is called is following. I have a word I want to use. I’m not going to use it. Following the blanking law. That’s what it’s called. And they’re not doing it…

SCARBOROUGH: Is it Steven Cheung who is ordering people to, I, I, I don’t know. I don’t even know Steven Cheung. But is Steven Cheung the guy who is ordering these people to be in contempt of a federal judge’s order. Federal judge’s order, by the way, that Donald Trump appointed.

I want to know. Who is saying ignore a federal judge’s order, because this sounds a lot like Watergate to me.
