Thus it must be a scam. Maybe an illegal one.
That's it. The entire segment relied on those two things. That woman is as nuts on MSNBC these days as Glen Beck was on Fox News several years ago. She is lunatic level like he was. Then she said Trump's Yemen travel ban caused spies to turn against the US and warn terrorists of the raid.

THat's not at all what she said. She said the Hotel was far from what would be called a tourist or business area, and that getting to it was hard. She called it weird but didn't that that was a scam. It was a small piece of the entire story. And don't forget that this story came from Adam Davidson of the New Yorker, not from Rachel Maddow.
