Josh Marshall on Trump-Linked Spy Scandal: ‘Everybody’s ... All the Key People’ Are Touched by the Allegations

RUSH EXCERPT:

MARSHALL: “It’s gone pretty quick. You know, I think one of you know, one of the things is we talk a lot about how, you know, you know, in the stock market, you know, people invest in companies and stuff like that. Scandals can work kind of the same way, right? The way that the way that politicians get interested in scandals, journalists, just members of the public, you know, sometimes you see like a dangling thread, right? And you pull it, but you don’t know, maybe, maybe it’s no more than that, right? You don’t know what you’re getting into. I think the reason this has moved so fast is that from the very beginning, we’ve known kind of the whole story. We know he had the affair. We know this person to the extent the U.S. government is accurate, is is a spy. We know Trump knew about it a year ago and was briefed on it again, just just before the summer.”
