MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow told her viewers Thursday night that she received a fairly convincing forged NSA document that directly implicated a member of the Trump administration in working with Russia during the 2016 presidential election.

Maddow: “What we got is forged, it’s fake. Which is interesting if you work on this show. This is news because why is someone shopping a forged document of this kind to news organizations covering Trump-Russia affair?”

Well, Maddow you and others in the media have become a complete joke because after several months of nonstop reporting on Russian conspiracy theories, there is still ZERO evidence of any collusion between the Trump camp and Russia.

Maddow went on to lament the three journalists who resigned from CNN over their fake Trump-Russia article that nearly got them into a huge lawsuit.

She also brought up CBS and Dan Rather getting punked by fake documents over 10 years ago in a story attacking former President George W Bush. Maddow was implying that she was sent this forged NSA document to discredit the (non-story) known as Trump-Russia or like Van Jones likes to call it–a ‘nothing burger’.

Maddow: “Heads up everybody. This is what I mean by an inside-out scoop. Somebody, for some reason, appears to be shopping a fairly convincing fake NSA document that purports to directly implicate somebody from the Trump campaign in working with the Russians on their attack on the election. It is a forgery. Let me caveat that, it is either a forgery, or every single national security official we consulted about this story is wrong about it.”

Rachel Maddow then admits that she’s isn’t sure if Trump worked with Russia or not to win the election then went on a paranoid diatribe of being targeted as a way to discredit her. Sorry, Maddow, but you don’t need any help there. You’ve discredited yourself with your garbage reporting already.

What’s really hilarious is imaging how excited Maddow and her team got when they first received these documents only to be let down.
