JOHN RATCLIFFE: The Mueller Report, it's really going to be difficult for the Democrats or anyone to rely upon the findings of a report when they just listened to the man whose name was on top of it, not have a command of what was even in it.
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Well, you know what a clown show for a guy like that to be attacking a Marine hero, a guy that changed the FBI. He doesn’t know what Robert Mueller did or didn’t do. Maybe he didn’t give a type of performance that Ratcliffe gave, the screaming and humiliating himself.
And by the way, Mika, Ratcliffe was the guy who I think spurred a discussion here, where I asked a question: if Republicans are really — I hate to even call them that, a Trumpist, a Trump sycophant, is going to call every Democrat a socialist, can Democrats call Ratcliffe a fascist? Because it seems fair to me. that if they're going to mislabel Democrats who are not socialists, socialists, then should just start calling Ratcliffe a fascist. And call him a fascist throughout this entire process. Call him a fascist for the rest of his career until this fascist apologizes to capitalists who are Democrats who he has mislabeled.

Are there any cartoons of Joe hanging by Puppet strings controlled by Mika?
“Morning Verbal Abuse: Scarborough Calls New DNI Pick John Ratcliffe a ‘Fascist’ ‘Clown’”
That gives me confidence that he’s a great pick.
If that idiot hates the nominee, select him,select him, select him!
Riddle of the Day: A Democrat, a mentally ill person, ,a communist, and a pervert walk into a bar. Although there is only one seat available, there is no problem. . . .Why?
So he’s a good choice, then.
just reading that short piece makes me think Scarborough is delusional.
The Dems/Left/Deep State are scared to death of Ratcliffe & this is why [excerpt from link]:
Representative John Ratcliffe is a member of the House Judiciary Committee and House Intelligence Committee. Ratcliffe is one of only a few people who has seen all of the unredacted DOJ and FBI evidence within the documents congress has previously asked the President to declassify.
Representative John Ratcliffe currently holds a top-level security clearance. John Ratcliffe is very even tempered albeit direct by natural disposition.
Ratcliffe’s nomination, and confirmation should be unremarkable.
However, due to the information that Ratcliffe already holds about the overall intelligence community operation in 2015 through 2019, we can expect the deepest part of the Deep State to immediately begin a process to impede any confirmation effort. Ratcliffe is a risk, and he will likely be controversialized in a political effort to block his nomination.

Also, the ODI change is absolutely necessary - here is the process for declassifying docs & why ODNI can block [excerpt from link]:
Officials within that process (CIA, DoS, DIA, FBI, DOJ-NSD, DoE, DoT, DoD, DHS) based on their unique relationship to the interests within the document(s), can approve or refuse to sign-off based on their specific intelligence interests. This is where compartmented intelligence comes into play.
Normally any officer who refuses the request for declassification must justify to the intelligence hub; the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI, Dan Coats).
Normally the compartmented executive branch intelligence official tells the ODNI (Dan Coats) why they, their unique interests, cannot approve of the declassification request.
The ODNI then informs POTUS why the document is not cleared for declassification.
If he disagrees with the decision of the intelligence official, POTUS then would have to fire, replace and hope the next person in the chain-of-command would sign-off. In essence, President Trump would have to fire people, and keep firing people, until he gets to a person, inside that specific agency, who will comply.
However, President Trump granted AG Bill Barr with decision-making authority that would override any cabinet officer who might block Barr’s request.
Subsequently, with Bill Barr holding the executive power to declassify information, why would replacing ODNI Dan Coats be necessary?
There are a few possibilities, but only one pertains to declassification. ODNI Dan Coats was refusing to comply with the declassification demand by Bill Barr.
Joe’s been a Trump hater from the start... he’s a mean spirited little man.
God, I wish I can have a TV show just for calling people names. That’s all he does or ever has done. It must be something hard to do... only people with super powers can do this.
Seriously - Is Joe mentally retarded?
I’ve never watched TV in the morning and never the channel where Joe spews his “wisdom”. What is the back story about the girl who was murdered? Sounds like something that could be brought to the attention of a lot of people.
More likely he’s especially going after Trump so that when he gets exposed for his criminality he can say it is a political/revenge prosecution.

...or, Mika points.
The Democrat party is run by socialists. The effect of the Democrat party is the advancement of socialism.
If you don't want to be called a socialist, Joe, then GTF out of the socialist party!
That a**hole would call Mother Teresa a racist if Trump tweeted how much of a saint she was. Pathetic!
