Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski put her foot down about Kellyanne Conway on Wednesday, stating firmly that she would no longer have the White House counselor on the show. "Every time I've ever seen her on television, something's askew, off, or incorrect," Brzezinski said. "I will say: Kellyanne Conway does not need to text our show, just as long as I'm on it because it's not happening here … She's not credible anymore."
Conway has been in hot water in recent weeks following her repeated citation of the "Bowling Green Massacre," which never occurred, as well as her possibly illegal promotion of Ivanka Trump's products on a Fox morning show.
