MSNBC legal analyst explains how Tucker Carlson's J6 show was 'everything bad we expected'

Joyce White Vance is a legal analyst for MSNBC, because she says just what they pay her to say. President Joe Biden getting caught with classified documents in his garage was nothing like Donald Trump’s situation: “We are where we are because [Biden’s lawyers] acted honestly and with integrity.” Hey, Biden’s team could have just stashed what they found. (Actually, they did keep it secret for quite a while, as the documents were found in early November.) She even went full BlueAnon when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis mysteriously “went missing” (he was spending time with his wife who was having cancer treatments).

She’s back with an opinion piece for MSNBC on why Speaker Kevin McCarthy giving Tucker Carlson access to all of the January 6 footage was “everything bad we expected.”

1/ @NicolleDWallace is currently doing a take down of all the lies Tucker Carlson is peddling about 1-6 by mis-using the video Kevin McCarthy gave him. These lies are all Fox viewers will see.

“Mis-using the video.”

2/ Internal communications released in the Dominion Voting Machine case reveal Carlson was aware Trump had lost the election while he continued to push the Big Lie to his viewers. That should give people pause over the Speaker's decision to give this footage to Carlson

3/ I wrote for @MSNBCDaily about the decision to give Carlson exclusive access to this footage before we saw the results. It's everything bad we expected. https://t.co/BHT3BMfRfq

She writes:

Does McCarthy hope Fox News can rewrite the history of the insurrection, at least in the minds of enough voters to help his party in future elections? Does he think Fox News can massage the footage — before it makes it to other outlets — and craft an alternative theory of the attack, perhaps blaming, despite evidence to the contrary, that it was the work of antifa or some other code-for-Democrats group?

It’s difficult to interpret McCarthy’s actions in any other way — after all, those who want the true story of Jan. 6 need to look no further than the exhaustive and bipartisan report the House select committee produced. We don’t need Carlson to tell us what happened on Jan. 6.
