On Tuesday – just two days before Hillary Clinton’s testimony before the House Benghazi Committee – MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell teased an upcoming interview with liberal operative and longtime Clinton hatchet man James Carville, hailing him as a “political Jedi master.” In the segment that followed, Carville proceeded to spin wild conspiracy theories about the reason behind the Democratic front-runner’s Benghazi and e-mail scandals.
Mitchell began by actually challenging Carville on the Benghazi attack: “...how could she be secretary of state, be in charge, and not have those security warnings come to her level?” Carville launched into his rant: “Trey Gowdy is a creation of the Koch brothers and the whole climate denial industry and this committee was nothing but a creation of Rupert Murdoch and the Koch Brothers. You know, Fox ran over 1,000 segments in 20 months after this thing.”
