MSNBC’s Chris Hayes tonight said it’s pretty clear both the White House and its favorite news channel are trying to play a game of “I know you are but what am I” on Russia.

“Fox News, the conservative media at large, and a handful of Republican investigations, and the White House,” he said, “continue to throw a bunch of things named Russia against the wall to see what sticks.”

He cited Fox & Friends coverage in particular of “President Hillary Clinton… I mean, private citizen Hillary Clinton” and how they and others in the conservative media have been playing up the news about Uranium One and the Trump dossier funding.

“The more that all of them attempt to use sheer brute force to push this… into the national conversation,” Hayes said, “the more unhinged it’s getting.”

He cited Sebastian Gorka invoking the fate of the Rosenbergs in talking about the Clintons and Uranium One.
