"... how the f--- does Joseph Cuffari still have a job?!?"

Former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss the court filing that shows top Trump Pentagon officials' phones were wiped of text messages from January 6. "This is another major concern that obviously officials out of the Trump administration were taking steps to make sure that potential evidence involved in January 6 would not be there," says Panetta.

"I'm going to surround myself only with the best and most serious people," he boasted to The Washington Post back then. "We want top-of-the line professionals."

And, here we are. Boris Epshteyn, Anthony Scaramucci, Sebastian Gorka, Carter Page, Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Corey Lewandowski, Steve Bannon, Reince Priebus, Sean Spicer and others all have come and gone....
