Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade joined in with White House counselor Kellyanne Conway’s grousing about Democratic control over House meeting spaces on Monday, saying that they’re using them as “John Dean’s makeup room.”

Conway was complaining that Democrats keep shunting her out of rooms in which she was supposed to brief senators on the opioid crisis.

Dean, White House counsel for Richard Nixon who turned against him during the Watergate hearings, is due before the House Judiciary Committee this afternoon to talk obstruction of justice.

  1. This is getting to them…probably because this is a start of what is to come…which is much more than “John Dean”

    As a longtime TPM reader, I have to say that it distresses me to see TPM run with this kind of ‘story’. “Republican on Fox says something sarcastic about Democrats” is not a story. It’s TPM becoming an echo chamber of right wing propaganda and memes. Those of us who are subscribers, I suspect, would prefer to see our money supporting content that doesn’t amplify GOP attempts to hide important choices behind a wall of muck. What’s the next story in this series? “Trump uses nickname XX to mock opponent?” “Hannity calls Dems Y”? Haven’t we all heard it before? Don’t we all know what the game is?
