‘That’s a Hell of a Confession!’ MSNBC Host Grills GOP’s Comer Over Shocking Jail Threat!

Comments made by House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) noted in a recent Bulwark report drew a scathing response from “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough on Thursday morning.

Discussing Donald Trump’s desire to have lawmakers who investigated him over the Jan 6 insurrection hauled in and prosecuted, Comer claimed they were fair game.

According to the Bulwark, the Republican from Kentucky replied, “With politicians, if you’ve used a congressional committee and you’ve lied and tried to set people up and falsely imprisoned people, then you should be held accountable.”

After co-host Mika Brzezinski read the quote, MSNBC’s Scarborough pounced.

“Wow. I mean that’s a hell of a confession by James Comer who lied repeatedly, repeatedly, about Joe Biden ,” he exclaimed.

“Is he going to send himself to jail? Is that what he is telling us right here,” he asked with tongue in cheek.

Co-host Brzezinki carried on, reporting that Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) agreed with Comer, adding, “If they broke the law, then they should [be imprisoned]. Now we know that they’ve manipulated evidence, so—if that’s the case, then absolutely.”
