Rachel Maddow's discussion of the VP lying was very good tonight. (Original Post)

(9,070 posts)2. She went through the time line of Flynn's firing...
and showed that most of the transition team knew that Flynn was lying (via emails, etc.).
Either Pence was lying in multiple public interviews, or the entire transition team was lying to Pence (and they supposedly fired Flynn for lying to Pence, so why not fire all the others?).
In other words, Pence was also publicly lying about contacts with Russia.
As Rachael puts it..."Why?"
That's a very short version. Her show is repeated here (ET) at midnight if others missed it.

You could start a new public service: "Rachel Maddow in Four Sentences."

listening to her very very long explanations.
